 Shrouded in the babiiments of wo and with A black flag floating at our masthead, kindly hos,ed for us oy a midnight loco foc0, proceed, ns in duty bound, to furnish readers with the result of inc cGonict' from which we have just emerged bruised,
 The joint forces of whigs and loco focos have left us Tn tororn minority, with scarce ray to light us on our cheeriess path, and without beacon to guide us 10 haven of rest, where we repose in olet, 1noisturbed by the rejocings of merc.lcss Eoes- are down, and there is no help for US. The pre- dlcuons we have oft laid before our friends have 6een dlsregarded, and they see them to be fear fully true The contamnatng touch of the loco focos against which we have warned them has worked out lts polsonons results, and fostering sore, the product of an unhalowed embrace with the destructives has ranked, until the whole has become diseased unto death But away with lamentations. We must learn wisdom by experience, and profit by the lesson be- fore us.

 TIE ELEcTioN-The unfavorabe results in our own county given yesterday, were only tkc prelude ot an adverse political tempest that seems to have swept the State As yet we have not heard of sin- gle county in which the democratic ticket has succee- ded and we include among them, some of the oldest and trmest strong-holds of the Democracy.
 From Me State Paper of Monday
 The Election returns continue to wear an unfa vorabe aspect Indeed yet they are little else than
 succession of defeas, constituting in the aggregate result unprecedented in the annals of our state cleo tons: The result has come with such suddenness and foe."
 From the Harttord Times .1s53t g.t
 The city of New-York has, as we universally ex- peced elected the whg ticket and the federaliss are rejoicing almost as much as when Gen. Hull was cap tured On looking at the result known there is much that 's encouraging. [!!!!!Y
 From another Tory paper in Connecticu 5
 As yet but very few returns have been received moi enough to form any definite conclusion as to the result; nough there no question but rhat the Deoc- racyh0oe carried thc State by triumphant Uote [!!]
 Great SWhig Celebration-A large Committee has been appointed in New-York to make preparations for celebration grand scale in honor of the re- cent Whig victory. The celebration to be on We'd nesday the 22d inst It is proposed that the firing of cannon and other demonstrations of joy extend from the Atlantic to the Lakes-from the eastern end of Long Island to the most remote of the St. Law renee on the north, and Chataque at the wcst-and that each city and village join in the general joy- Would it not be well for Connecticut also to give similar demonstration to show that they rejoice with their brethren in NewYork for their eliverance from the dominion of Van Burenism?
 We are requested to state that the Whigs of Ltch- field will make arrangements for discharge of 50 to 100 guns that day, one for each whg member of the legislature chosen at this election.
 "Idken by Surprise. e.'-This has been the favorte expression of the Van Burenites in accounting for their defeat at the Town Elections in this State held in October last. Sundry more elections have recent ly taken place. and usual resulted in favor of the Wings. East Hartford, smsbury. Holland and Som- CTS, which have heretofore been Van Buren, elected last week Whig selectmen and other officers-thus giving our friends the same advantage which the Times claimed it would give to the tories should they succeed. Hui! HAIL!! HAIL!!! really descends this fall in such rapid and accumulated torrents that it is almost impossible to keep even an index of the number of storms which have passed over And the greatest of all HaiT' storms which has ever yet de- scended upon poor benghted people has just fallen upon the State of New-York. All hail! the Empire State! Connecticut longs for the opportunity when she too may hear reverberated from her hi-ops and her valleys the cry of "all hail Connecticut regener- ated Connecticut! all hail!"
 What DiN Prentice sdy noiC ?-Prevous to the cleo ton in New-York, Prentice said that if the whigs would carry that state he would "charter thunder cloud to let off discharges in honor of the event. i- stead of park of artillery. How will his hyperboical promise be now fulfilled? The truth is, neither he any else out of the state expected such ri- umph, and hence any pledges were considered not binding
 0- In our peregnnation through the northern-west- ern section of this county the three four last weeks collecting sundry little accounts standing upon our books, we found the right sort of spirit prevailing a.. mong the Wings with regard to the next spring eec- tion. h our rambles we visited portions of Goshen, Norfolk, Canaan, Cornwall, Sharon, Kent, and Wash ington, and every where-so far as we made any in. quiries-we found Ahat the people were anxious for the time to arrive when they might go forth 10 battle against the hordessof Van Burenism. Every where was tho most undaunted resolution displayed-every where were the Wings determined to cast away all minor considerations. and rush the rescue of their beloved State from the paralyzng influence, from the contamnating blight of Van Burenism. We had oc- casiona opportunities likewise ofree conmunica ton with some Van Buren men, many of whom were will ling to admit that the government for the last few yean had been badly administered, ard that they be- lieved change of some kind must be made. Go on, then, friends of your country. and assist in retaining your own State from bondage!
