THE VICTORY IN NEW YORK.
CIRCULAR.

DOlDtCu Dy tue last OtTeTHl anu Junior A0ut
ventions of the party in this State for the |
campaign which has just closed, ask leave
totender their congratulations TO their Wing
and Conservative brethren throughout the |
Union, on the decisive and glorious result
Of the contest in New York. After slrug-
gle uneqnalled in Intensity and animation
by any ever known in this Sta,e--a contest
which has enlisted more public interest and
individual exertion than any State Election
thnn ever took place in this country, aud
which has brought out vote greater by
thousands than was ever polled in this or
any other State, are enabled to communicate
the joyful intelligence thut the Wing banner
floats in undispuled triumph from the ram
parts of the Empire State The immediate
results oftLis sweeping victory are as fol-
lows:
A Vino GovERNOR OF New YORK, by
majority Of nearly or quite 1000 votes.
A Vine LIEUT.. GOVERNOR, by ut least
10000 majority, and perhaps to 10000.
A WING DELEGATION TO CONGRESS-
TwENTy-oNE Members to NINETEEN, by
quite as large popular vote, being gain
ofno less than ELEVEN WING Mem
bers in the next Congress.
FIVE OR SIX VINO SENATORS out of the
eight annually elected in The same number
of Districts---into which the whole State is
divided.
About EIGHTy MEMBERS OF ASSEMBLY
out OF one hundred and twenty-eight which
compose the more popular branch of our
Legislature--leaving lorty-eight TO our op-
ponents, or doubtful, and giving US nearly
two 10 one in the House, and about TIL lR-
TY majority on joint ballot
1t must be borne in mind that the State
was last distrcted for the choice Of Members
OF Congress while our opponents bore IN
disputed sway, and of course with an eye to
their own interests. With the Districts as
they stood up to 1880, we should have gain
ed several members more and now we lose
six by an aggregate of about five hundred
votes. and eight by less than one thousand
votes in all We have lost five or six Mem
bers by the interposition and influence OF a
local question against our candidates in sew
eral districts.
Our average majority of the Peoples
votes will fall little if any thing below
Twelve Thousand The change effected in
our Congressional Delegation will make a
difference of TWENTY-FIVE votes in the next
House of Representatives, as compared with
the present or either oflhe two proceeding.
The result further secures the return OF a
faithful and true servant ofthe People to the
Senate of the United States for six years en-.
suing and the election of Wings to all our
important State Officers for the ensuing term
of three years. The victory could hardly be
more signal or complete
Such, Fellow-Ctizens, is the attitude as
sumed by the State OF New York in regard
to the political affairs Of the Nation, and the
fiscal and other projects of our rulers al
Washington 1t will not be pretended by
our opponents that they were taken by sur
prise and beaten upon a light vote this time
The measure of the National Adminstra
ton have been thoroughly canvassed by III,
People Of New York nearly every either
has recorded his judgment upon their char
acter and tendency and The result is as ",
have already stated. On every point and il
every section ofthe State have the advocate:
OF those measures been defeated, and ou
hostility TO them justified and sustained By
the verdict OF more than Two Hundred
Thousand intelligent, unterriied and incor
ruptiblc Freemen.
To our Wing brethren in other States
who have hitherto rallied around the stand
dard Of True Liberty, uncheered by tn
sympathy and cooperation Of the majorit,
of their immediate lellow-ciizens, we trus
we may. without offence, commend the bear
ing of ~ York throughout the late canvas
her attachment to principles and measures
regardless of men her devotion to the Lib
critics and Prosperity of the entire Union
her contempt for the seductive influences @
local pride, and the sill more seductive ia
fuences of unbounded Patronage and Pow
er her unfalterng constancy and undaunte
spirit in view of unexpected reverses an
losses in other States; and the calm mien {
noble self confidence and resolute de6anc
which she steadlasly opposed TO the bolster
Gus exultation and noisy vauntings Of tn
devotees Of Federal power--as ai1ording a
example perhaps moi unworthy oftheir i'm
tation.
We are, respectfully
SAMUEL STEVENS.
