GLORIOUS TRIUMPH!

The Ne,D- York Ciy Election was held on Tuesday, "Wednesday and Thursday of last week. Great exer- tions had been made for some days previous by the Tammanyites to bring their strength at this cleo ton and the Wings, backed by their friends the fire men, were not inactive in their endeavors to make rally to overthrow the enemy in that strong hod.- The contest has eventuated auspciousy for the good cause. The Whig candidate for Mayor tAaron Clark is elected by the very handsome majority of about THIRrYroUR HUNDRED-tscclue Aldermen of the Common Council out of r, and slecen Assistants, are elected by the Whig party-gving them in joint bal lot more than two to one-and placing the whole of tie city offices within their control Such result scarcely anticipated by any body. The Wings them- selves are as much surprised at the magnitude and entireness of their success, the Van Buremtes dismayed at their overthrow. The Courier of Friday m >rning bursts forth in the following enthusiastic an- gpage -
