Most Glorious Triumph
MORE WING THUNDER A!

IVUnE W01U INUNDEn /.
by the steamboat Rhode Is
land, which arrived here yester-
day morning from New York, we
received returns from 81 towns
in N. Haven and Fairfield coun-
ties, in glorious and regenerated
Connecticut, which give a Wing
net gain, since the last year, OF
2,O15 votes, and a majority over
the Loco focos and Conservatives
united, of 1850. About 80 ad-
ditional towns from the eastern
part of the State. by the same
conveyance, increased this majo
rity to over 1000. BY the mail,
however, of last evening, from
Boston, we received the follow
ing most gratifying and decisive
intelligence, which comprehends
returns, with the exception of 5
towns only, (and those inconside-
rable,) from every county in the
State-and which, it will be seen,
shows a MAJORITY OF AT
LEAST 5000 for the good
cause
We have neither time nor space
at present to express the crowd
of sensations which fill our minds
at this most evcntful and heart
stirring triumph. We can mere
ly say TO KHODE-ISLAND,
now she is girding her loins for
similar contest--"go and do like
acise 10 This victory comes to
you as a most seasonable mcmen-
to. DO your best, but never yield
the palm to Connecticut in the
race of glory.
From the Boston Daily Advertiser Of yesterday.
Connecticut Election.
We received last esening by Express
from Hartford, the following decisive
and gratifying result of the Election in
Connecticut on Monday. 1t embraces
returns from all the towns in the State
except five, as published in the Hartford
Daily Courant. The towns not heard
from will hardly vary the result. Mr..
Ellsworth, the Wing candidate, is
chosen by majority of 5000 votes over
the Democratic candidate, and more
than three thousand over the Demo-
cratic and Conservative together. The
Senate is Wing by l8 members out Of
l21, and the letter of our correspondent
says 90 out of 81, and the House of
Representatives is Wing by moro than
two to one.
CONNECTICUT REDEEMED !!
From the Hartford Daily Couran,
Yesterday was our annual election
for State Officers, and this morning we
have the satisfaction of announcing to
our Wing friends throughout the State,
and to our brethren throughout the
Union, that Connecticut has followed
the example Of New York, Maine,
Rhode Island and other patriotic States,
and again raised the Wing banner,
which is now floating proudly over her
from one extremity to the other. We
will not say that our victory is unparal-
lcled; but it has far exceeded our most
sanguinc expectations. We have car
ried our State Ticket by large ma
jority. Ellsworth s majority over Beers,
will not be less than 5000. Eighteen
of the twenty one Senators elected, arc
Wings and we shall have more than
two thirds of the House.
In Hartford county, last year, the
Wings elected l3 members of the
Housc-now they have %, and two
towns yet to choose.
Tolland Co.--last year, 9-now II.
New London Co.-last year, 9-now
l2l.
Middlcscx Co.-last year, now 0.
Windham Co. last year, 3-now 90.
The only Loco Foco chosen i'll this
county, is Chauncy F. Cleveland, and
he is elected by majority of /.
Our friends throughout the State
have done nobly. Ii would be difficult
TO particularzc and say where they
have done best. In Middlcscx county,
the Loco Foco majority last year, was
7O9--this year it will not amount to 80.
In New London County, our opponents
had majority last year of 236-this
year il is about 1000 in our favor
Windham county last year gave ma
iority against us of 20O-now 65i in
our favor.
In this county, Ellsworth's majority
over the Locos and Conservatives, is
