LONDON, October 16.-Telegrams from the New York Associated Piess announcing the re? sult of the elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana were duly received, and are comment? ed on by the London journals as follows- The Daily News (Radical) says : If the Democratic paity haO only remained passive, Republican blunders would have given them power, but the " Democrats have an equal if not greater apti? tude for error. The Morning Post (Conserva? tive) says : The result of theso elections has decided the Presidential contest, and the slight interest wherewith the Democrats sought to surround it is gone. The Standard (Conserva? tive) comments on Lae small majorities claimed by the Republicans, and thinks that the Demo? crats may have carried some of tho States. The writer says : U the Democrats are beaten, tbeir friends here would wish that they had been guided by sater counsels. The Telegraph (.Liberal) while approving the result, sees in it ruin of the Republican p?rty, in which there are so many wide differences on financial ques? tions. A PACIFIC MOVEMENT.

The Times to-day, in an article on the Chi? nese mission, thinks that the fact that Mr. Burlingame is not a native of China will be no obstacle to his success at the courts ia which he is accredited.

WASHINGTON, October 18.-There is the best authority for saying that President Johnson neither approved the proposition for the with? drawal of Seymour's name nor intimated a wish for A new nomination. On the contrary, the President looks upon the proposition for a change of candidates as ill-timed and inju? dicious. General Frank P. Blair made a speech in St. Louis to a large audience yesterday. He said that he carno before them neither dismayed nor discouraged; the Democratic parly would yet win, and if it failed the republic would fail with it. He expected to continue to bo the candidate for vice-President, but was willing to make any sacrifice that the country might demand. Affairs In Louisiana.

Wo make room for thc comments of som iii?, fading political papers of the North the results of the recent elections : [From thc New York Herald, harlequin.] The results of tho State elections yestei clearly indicate the election of General Gi as our next President by an overwheln majority of the popular and electoral vol the Union. [From the New York World, Democrat] Ou Democratic principles, pure and sim we should have succeeded. We have I beaten by reasons extraneous to tho que;, ti in issue. We could easily hsve overcome popularity of General Grant if another pt had net been raised to divert attention fi the issues. 1 he position of General Blair i some of the Southern leaders has been ind triously perverted and misropiesented, and impression produced that the Democratic r. ty is virtually pledged to overthrow the r State governments by force. This slander] repelled more than votes enough to turn balance in oui- favor. Thc narrow escapi the Republicans from a cieat defeat is not c to their principles, but to the military prest of Grant and the aspersions cast ur. Blaii*. In a simple contest of principles should have succeeded; and wo may succ< yet, if wo can remove or neutralize these ? verse influences, which have really nothing do with tho merits of tho public questions. Can this bo done ? It is a grave questit fraught with the mest momentous couscquc ces. We commend it to the attention, to t most earnest reflection of tho recognized lei era of tho party. We have still nearly thi weeks (or action, and where so slight a cou terpoise would suffice to tum tho scale, prom action-if it be judicious as well os prompl will accomplish wonders. If, in a review of t whole situation, it shall be concluded that m takes have been made, it is bettor that th should be corrected now than that tho count sh auld be dragged through four mjre nea years of strife, to bo redeemed then by mea uros of thc same kind that might, by a magui cent exercise of pluck, be as easily adopt now. Whatever a sagacious forecast may pe ceive tobo tho proper coursetrr thc Dern?cra ic party four years banco, if i. should be bea en now, had I ettcr be pursue d at oaccy' II time has como-the hour has utruck-^wnen v must turn our i'acos resolutely to the future. This is a young country, witn a great caro before it which no imagination can grasp; majority of our voters aro youno, men ubour-i ing in hope, enterprise, ardor, activity; and tl country boing in tho dawn of a row era, whe all minds aro filled with expectation and c: citcmcnt, that party has tho best chances i a groat future which is roost ia sympathy wit the youthful, irrepressible etiorgtc3 of the tit tion. A growine nation, like au improving ii dividual, has always something to learn. political party which docs not advance wit tho nation, and enter into the fullness of ii expanding, exuberant life, is on tho dcclivil which descends to decadence and decrepitude Tho Democratic party is full of vigoroui youthful, aspiring elements; similar clement m tho other party are yearning to join it, if vv will but have the boldness to build a bridge o which they can cross. The Democratic part cannot die; its vitality, its invincible tcnjcit of life, the sanguiuo "confidence with which i gathers energy from defeat, bespeak a gi ea destiny still m ieserve. If our loaders should be convinced by the rc suit of the late elections that some mistake: were mado by not following their original jude, ment; if those who disagreed with them ii opinion now soe that they misjudged; if ther is any impediment to success which can yet b removed by noble daring, or s.-U-sacitieini virtue, ora bold stroke of policy, now is th hour for action ! It would be an infinito pit; if. whon wo are so very near success, wo shouli fail to win it by the lack of a little boldness L'audace, Caucace, toujours Caudace! Ou principles have not been rejected in those elec tions; there is no call to chango them. Al othor elements of the canvass aro lieut anc trivial compared with tho success of otu- prin ciples. It requires sonio greatness of soul tc act a bold nari in an unexpected crisis, wliei everything haugs upon a swift and Courageous decision. In this hour, when the party stanch with one foot over the brink of peril, and the other on thc edge of victory, the capacity of a few mon to form a croat resolution may shape the destiny of the country. " We speak as un? to wise men; judge ye what w? say." [From Brick Pomeroy's New York Democrat] We may not this season elect a Prosidont, but this much we shall do : largely reduce tho Ropubhcan strength in. Concress, and perhaps be ablo to tak,c tho power "bf that budy into Democratic hands. If this be not done in 1868, it will bo done within thc next two years, and the Republican party, which bas so long been laboring to make thc Executive of tho nation powerless, wi 1 Boon awako to thc faot that the engineer has been hoisted by his own petard, and that their acts have resulted ic the rendering powerless of their Picsic'.ent for the next four years, as they have ren? dered almost powerless their President for the balance of the term now ex? piring. Again we say to the Domocrats everywhere, on with the fight. Thia ia no time for stopping by the wayside. It is no time for idle argument. All we have to do is to go steadily on; crowding to the ftont; carrying the fi ?ht into the very heart of tho enemies' camp^-bat tiing for Democracy, Uberty, the con? stitution and the Union which a Republican Con? gress declares is n AV divided. The Democrat? ic party is better off now, in better fighting shape, and stronger in its representation in Washington than it was tho first of October. Every move we now make toward the front will be a move for victory; every vote wo can poll from this time on will be oue moro voto toward the annihilation of the Republican party and tho perpetuation of the institutions of which Amer? ica has such cause to be proud. Every word spoken, every voto cast for Democracy now, will be for tho benefit of the people and for the just punishment of our enemies. Had we lost representation in Congress by thc late election there would havo boon cause for being dis? couraged. But wc have gained. Democracy is slowly but surely triumphing; and now it only remains for every Democrat wno is true, earn? est and anxious "for the right to triumph, to gird his armor on anew and go on, steadily on for victory. If we cannot secure the election of Seymour and Blair, then, by all means, se? cure as many Democrats for Congress as it is possible to do, that wo may strike thc enemy on one side if not on tho other. Let tho peo? ple bo represented, and if Congress is tobe the law-abiding power of the nation, let us have as many representatives of Dsmocracy and the people in that body as it will be possible to place there. [From the New York Sun, Republican.] The elections are undoubtedly decisive of thc Presidency. It is in accordance with all tho precedents that thes? three great States, which have now gone Ropnblica:i, should largely in creas3 their majorities in November. It would not bo surprising to sec them doubled. Thc result, however, is not so demoralizing to the Democracy as to prevent their lighting a des? perate battle to retain their hold upon New Yoih; New Jersey and Connecticut.' In this State, especially, they will Btroin every nerve and usc every appliance to win a victory. I From the Kew Tort Journal of Commerce.] The State elections have disappDinted both parties. The Democrats are disappointed in their hopes; the Republicans are relieved of their fears; for tho defeat of one and thc suc? cess of the other are beyond all reasonable an? ticipations. Without Waiting for tho olBci.il count, the returns show ihat the Republicans keep the power they acquired under Mr. Liu coln, having neither gaiued or lost bv tho nom? ination of General Graut; while thc Democrats hold about the samu relative position, having conducted the campaign so as to win no acces? sions from independent Conservatives. Hence? forth the oppositiou will struggle through the remainder of the canvass with, a heavier bur? den; and tho dominant party will carry tbiaga with a higher hand in the confident expectation of a more decided u iumph in .November. [From the New York Times, Kcpu ,lican.J Thc three States whose verdict was by com? mon consent regarded as the pledge and fore? taste of the November event have all pronounc? ed for Grant and peace, in tones that admit of DO misapprehension. Not for some dsys yot will the ful' details bc ascertained with pre? cision. Bul the general resull is already un? mistakable. By majorities in excass of our an? ticipations, three great States have been glaced in tho Republican column, with an assuranco that these majorities will be increased when the final effort shall be made. Tho merits of the struggle betweon Grant, tho representa? tive of Uuionisni and law and peace, and Blair, the representative of revolution and anarchy between Grant, tho exponent of national faith, and Soyuiour, the mouthpiece of repudiators bave been understood; aud the judgment re? corded on Tuesday by three Slates will three weeks hence be ratified by thc country. [From thc Kew York Tribune, Radical/. It was universally felt and virtually confess? ed that the partisans of Seymour aud Bloir must tnumph in thc Stato elections held yes? terday or abandon all hopes of success. E very table they have yet made of the probable vote for next President by States claimed Pennayl vania. Indiana and Nebraska as a certainty, and Oliio as probably for Seym ?ur. The most ingenious among them could not nmkc up a list of Stales expected to vote for Seymour suffi? cient to eloct him without including all or most of those above naTjed. They had thus adver? tised their followers that they must carry those States in October or confess themselves alrea? dy beaten in tho November struggle. [From the Boston Post, Dem.] There is nothing for tho Democrats to des- i pair of, even if the three States which held i elections on Tuesday have gone against them. The majorities at best must bo small, and , they have been won by tho Radicals, if won , at all, only with tho mist strenuous effort, ; backed by every possible appliance of corrup? tion. The gain of Congressmen reported is au encouraging symptom of tho change that is yet < to take place "in the more numerous branch < of Congress. A stronger Democratic oppo- ? sition is needed in that body above every- i thing. By that road we shall surely travoi | to a place of safety. We are sure of a gain i of two Congressmen in Pennsylvania, three in < Ohio, and have a prospect of one in Indiana. ( This is tho t:z} reaction which is steadily go- j ing on. The Radicals profess ?? tliatt that ( Congress represents tho people, and tho Presi- i dent does not; on thoir own theory, then, they must admit that tho pcoplo are condemning < their course and avowing their purpose to rev- \ olutionize the character ot tho body in which i Radicalism has Bet up its stronghold. < Protestant Episcopal {?enera! Triennial ? Conven ion. < lu this body on Wednesday last tho Rev. Dr. i Cooke, of Now York, presented a verbatim rc- ! port of the Tyng trial, accompanied by a pro- j posed revision of thc canon applicable to that i matter, so as to secure some authoritative dc- * finition of the said canou, or make some j amendment which may clear tho law of dis- ( puto, promoto the extension of thc Church and < tho cause of religion. Tho memorial is signed 1 by the Wardens and Vestrymen of the Church of tho Holy Trinity, of which Kev. S. H. Tyng, Jr., is Rector. Tho documents wore referred to the Committee on Canons without debate. The Rev. S. Benedict, of Georgia, presented a memorial and resolution requesting the Com? mittee on Canons to inquire and report upon tho legislation necessary in all cases of differ? ences between Presbyters and their Bishops in the worc'8 following:" This church recognizes the principle that the episcopate is derived from tho apostles, i and thereforo gives authority to rule in the < Church of Christ, and that this authority is i absolute wherever it is not questioned; that i where thescopo of this authority is questioned, ' it is proper for tho inferior to submit to thc au- < thonty of tho superior ecclesiastical authority of the church. 1 Tho mover disclaimed any particular rorer- i enco lo any case in his memorial, but it was un- t dcrstood to bo a drive against Mr. Tyng, who.se < memorial had just previously been presented. < The Rev. C. P. Gadsden, ?t fcouth Carbina, i a^ked that it be referred to the Committee on i Prayer Rook, inasmuch os it embracud doc- i tnnal points cf vital importance to thc stability i of the church. Judge Battle, of North Caro- i lina, 8"stained this view, after whic J thc mover t accented tho amendment, which, after an ex- i planation from Dr. Littlejohn that the matter i touched upon is already provided for in tho or- t dination vows of the presbyters, it wa3, on his t motion, laid on the table. I Dr. Goodwin thea took the floor in opposition 1 to tho chango of words "council'' for ' conven- ] tion,'' as applied to the General Convention, c He took it to b nn organization of thc Church, t aud. therefore, an admission that we liar > h d 1 no Protestant Episcopal ChU?u:i up lo this' time. He reviewed tho liislnrv of ecclesiastical I council or conventions lr ni the apostolic days t to the adoption of the Prayer Book In 1789 by a the Protestaut Episcopal Church of the United t Statos. whose historyUa also reviewed. It was f urged by tho supporters of this chango that c this Church, or tho Church as they aro jileas- c ed to call it, is by. this change to become t the aatioual Church of this country, aud t? that togcthor with tho Anglican Church it shall 'iltimately bocomo tho Church of t tho world. He desired this result as ' much aa any man, but ho denied that thc claim t to be tho natioual church-and this is all they c have to rest upon-would produce such graud i results. Wo now propose, said he, to sit upon c n, post mortem examination of the cuurch and I resurrect it. The Doctor quoted from the v prayer book and canons to show that tito fath- t ere and fouuders of the church in these United c States never entertained the idea of being any- 1 thing else than a denomination of Protestaut c Christians in this country. And it is worao v than futile to attempt lo' build ourselves up \ morely upon a claim to be the national church, a In Great Britain this claim has been embodied c in the constitution of tho nation and of the church-lbs Episcopal Church bas beei in law i the national church; but, he asked, has it t grown therein ? He need hardlv toll thom that f such is not tho case; that tho church of Rome ^ has comparatively outstripped it, and dissent i has left it far behind. He looked upon this i change as a very serious one, and ono that t should bo thoroughly digested before being c acted upon; and moreover, it is simplv c absurd in its picsent form, as the Doe"- t tor showed by reference to tho uso of f thc word convention, in many placcu i where it refers to the Goners! Conven- t tion, without the prefix "general" Recess. \ O i reassembling, Mr. Boggles took thc floor I upon tho question of thc nationality of this Church. He inquired whether or not the in- I troductioti of the word "national" would not bc i mischievous aud greatly impair the efficiency ! ol the Church in those United States. It is "a I Church designed by tho Saviour for the whole 1 world, and it should therefore be their earnest I prayer, aud their labors should so tend, to make ; it a universal Church. Wc pray, said he. evcrv i Sabbath for tho "Holy Church universal, that ( it may bo guided aud governed by God's good ? Spirit, that it may Keep the unity ot the faith i in tho bonds of peace and in righteousness of i life." Geographically, the Church was originally < but a '.patch, but it it has extended its sphere I until it has encircled the worl 1. What part, he i asked, did they occupy? The strip of land bound- 1 ed by the Atlantic and Pacific Oeeans.the Gulf ot' i Mexico, and tho Arctic basin, ho considered a i very respectable piece of ground whereon to i found a church. And he did not think it becamo i any brother to caricature their efforts to extend I th? sphere of this church. This is the Prot?t- < tant Episcopal Church in, not of the United i States. The government of this country bas I no religiou. ne was sorry for this, but'such | was the fact. Tho government is independent | of the church, and the church ot the govern- t ment; and whether it were a monarchy or au J autocracy, thc church would have nothing to do willi it. There is somo differenco between men of the North and their brethren of the South as to whether these United States aro a nation or a confederacy. We claim tho for n?.cr, and our brethren ot thc South the latter. But this is not a question to bc discuss?d herc. It is enough tor them to know that tho church is on bouid tho ship of State, and it was for them to bo interested in her welfare. But whether it bc a nation or a confederacy, it could not be denied that we have the principles of nationality and tho power to preserve om in? tegrity, and "to ail intents and purposos wo arc a nation. Ho therefore opposed tue introduc? tion ot the wurd national-it is superfluous. It is enough for him to be a citizen ot the United States, without insisting upon calling himself a citizi-n of a nation. lt is enough for him to be a memoor of tho Protestant Episcopal Church in these Unite J States without stopping to question her nationality. It is necessary for the church to have an extensive geographical area, because other churches have it. Ho paid a worthy tribute to the empire of Russia and to the (ircek Church, and cxpreesd his beliaf that one day, not far distant, wou'd sec tho union of tho Anglican and Greek Churches. And a movement in that direction was mado by the Archbishop of Canterbury in his call for tho Lambeth Conference last year, which passed a ix-solution recommending tho forma? tion of a Synod to bc superior to the English or Am?ne in churches, and which also looked to a great (Ecumenical Council of Christians of all names und denominations. Thc Kev. Dr. Norton, of Virginia, tho mover of tho resolution, replied to the arguments of Dr. Goodwin, Mr. Buggies, and tho other speakers upon this question, supporting most sticnuously the change recommended. Ho had no doubt that, if tho founders of the church had to-day to find a name, they would accept somo other word than Convention. There is a strong desire on thc part of many dioceses to adopt some other name than Con? vention, and he did not think much of tho dif? ficulties said to he in tho way of the change of name. After Borne further discussion the whole aub joct was indefinitely postponod. THTJKSDAY'S PnOCEEDINGS. In tho Convenci?n on Thursday the Commit teo on Provincial System reported a canon di? viding tho church into six provinces, each to bo governed by a Primate Tho roport was ac? companied by resolutions referring thc matter to a special committee of fivo to prepare a re? port to tho Convention for adoption; also pro? viding that, should the provincia] system bc acreed to, the name of tba Goneral Convention shall be changed to that of tho Uoneral Synod. Thc committee of five are also instructed to cir .itt a new constitution for tho national church, which shall be submitted to thc seve? ral dioceses for consideration. Thc Committeo on Cannons, with reforence to tho divisions of dioceses, reported a scries of resolutions providing that hereafter uo new iliocosc shall be formed within tho limits of any other diocese, unless with tho consont of the Bishop and tho Genoral Convention; also, that such consent shall not be accorded unless satisfactory assurance be given of suitable pro cisi?n for tho support, of tho episcopate in thc contemplated diocese; also, that no city shall form more than onodiocssp; also, that no ch? ?cese Bbl,'] bo formed by tho junction of .two or nore diocesesi In case one diocese shall be divided into two )r more dioceses, the Bishop of thc diocese di? vided may choose thc one to which he shall bc ittachcd, and the assistant bishop, if there bc me, may elect the one to which ho will bc at? tached; and if it be not tho ono olected by tho Bishop, he shall bc diocesan thereof. Ber. Dr. Hunckel, of South Carolina, object? ed to tho resolutions, on tho ground that th^y ivould tend to indefinito multiplication of bish? ops. Rev. Benjamin AJ Roger*, of Texas, ad? vocated the resolutions. Ex-Governor Pish, of New York, explained that tho design of tho resolutions was to preveot the creation o. too nany dioceses. Rev. Dr.' Andrews, of Virginia,, moko in fivor of missionary bishops. Address' *s pro and con wero likewise made by Mr. Gor lon, of Alabama; Rev. Dr. Paddock, of Michi? bin; Bcv. Dr. Adams, of Wisconsin; Rev. Mr. ioodwin, ot Massachusetts, and others, after vhich thc house adjourned. THE STATE DEMOCRACY. address of thc Central Democrat it Club to thc Democratic Party of South Carolina. FeUow-CiUzena : Thc election for President ind Vice-President of tho United States is now ?lose at hand. Thc great principios involved n tho contest, tho mugnitudo of the interests it stake, and tho inllucnco which (his State nay bavo on the result, make this a proper loeasion to lay before you a brief address. Thc tendency and purposo of thc Radical wrly, as cuan iles cd in words and acts, aro the tbsorption of thc liberty of the individual; tho lestruction o? States; tho subversion of tho loustitution. and the erection upon tho ruins )f individual and public liberty, a grand, grimi? ng consolidated despotism. Already it has nado rapid stride i in that direction. Little low is left for it to do but to fuso into one j nass, and then cryatulize into permanent form ts various acquisitions of usurped power. Its aprieioos acts; its wanton cruelties; its cor? rupt pr?cticos; its enormous burdens you have elf and do know. Against I hose and moro han these, you are now called upon to con muo a resolute fight with the peaceful, though lotcut, weapon ol tho ballot. Tho D?mocratie mrty hero and everywhere aro striking with on for (ho principles ot liberty, and tho forms ?f government to which wc have boen accu - oiiied, fora written Constitution.'. a ?federal ind a dUUuct existence of llic Sta?.i?. Surely, then, tho principles of th? contest ire important, and tho interest great. Arouse, hero fore, to the mugnitudo i f the emergency, md spare no efforts for succoss. When tho imo for registration shall come, let no mun ail to appoar, and nouo fail to vote. Let each mo remember that lui individual voto niayde dde tho ideation in his own District, and that he electoral vote ol the State may turu the icalc in favor ot the Democratic party. Our people must not despond, nor rolax heir efforts, if them should be failures eise? rnere On tho contrary, they will have reason 0 hop.1, aud much to stimulate them to in roased cuergy, for it is yet possible to win. 1 tate elections are influenced, and sometimes .ontrolled by local issues; and it hus ofteu lapponed that these go ono way, and m a few reeks thereafter, in the samo place, the Prcsi Icutal elections auothcr. This may bo the ?ase in the present canvass; and, indeed, we lave reason to hopo so. Recently wo have re? lived reports from all parts of tho State, vhich induce the belief that South Carolina, vith proper effort, will be carried for Seymour md Blair. Let not thc failuro to do so'be as iribed to you. The canvass in which you are now engaged s full of excitement, which will probably con inue and increase to the end. We trust, there ore, that it will not be amiss to drop you a void ol' caution. Tho criminality of a few", and ierhap3 tho indiscretion of many have placed t in the power of malice und niLTcprcscnta ion to injure us, and seriously to damage the ?om mo ii cause. Wc urge, you, therefore, noL inly to prevent violence, but to abstain from toe appearance of it. Wo are dealing with a kiss and subtle loo-prolific iu inventions ai d renomons in purposo-a foo who fully under? hand* tho temporary profit of a nimble lie, v.iich too often achieves its endbclorothe ruth can even buckie on her armor. We need not urge upon you the policy and ho duty ot treating, with great kindness and Forbearance, tho colored population of thc State. This you have over done, and will con inuc to do, as long us you are permitted.

In thc BUCCCSS we hopefor, our organ? ization will bo most useful; and, in caso of de? feat, it will become essential. We, therefore, desire to impress upon you the necessity of preserving intact, and in full energy, the ad? mirable organizations of the Democratic party of South Carolina.

J8S-THE PEOPLE KNOW.- IP THERE 1S any thing tho people ihoroughly und.rsta^d, it in the comparative value of the various medicuies offered for their acceptance through the advertising col? umns of the press. In Scriptural phmse, they try all, but only hold fast to that which is good. Hence,. a medicinal preparation that has been growing tn ? favor with the pubhc for a period of twenty years, and bas attained a larger sale than any other remedy of its class ever reached in any country, may be fair? ly entitled a STAND ABD SPECIFIC, touching whose merits there is no room for controversy. Now. this is piecisely the position of HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTER?. As a means of preventing and curing dyspepsia, ordinary Indigestion, biliousness, general debility, and nervous affections, it has literally lived down all competihon, and legitimately taken its place as the foremost vegetable tome on this conli nent, in ieed, on this hemisphere. In view of this statistic il fact, which may be readily verified. by-a reference to thc revenue returns, a few words of seasonable advice in relation to the us-1 of an article in such general requc6t will not be considered ego? tistic or out of p'oce. There is no SC?SOJ which sug? gests the necessity fora course of this agreeable in vigorant more a gui?cantlv than thc fall. ?he great contrast between thc temperature of the night and days, aud the heavy mcphilic mists arising from ex? tensive surfaces of decomposing vegetable matter, necessarily have a depressing effect upon system partially exhausted by the beat ol sumo:er, and therefore greatly weding thit str.-ncth and vigor which are thc best safeguards against disease. Act? ing as a tonic and stomac'.iic, a blool depurcut, an alterative and an anti-bilious medicine, HOSTET? TER'S BITTERS exercises a wholesome influence upon eveTportion o: the organization, and prepares it to resist every unhealthy influence. ? once i;s great value as a tall medicine.
