Far President,
HENRY CLAY.
TIE STATE ELECTIONS.

Nrw D OK nc wing triumph ~ thls Slaic, as
was said in our last. is complete majority OF from
eight to twelve in the House of Representatives, and
eight in the Senate. In this state of parties the
papers both sides agTce--thai is, the Van Buren,
paper, give the Wings eight in tho House and a,
least six in the Senate. Tho doubt, however, en-
tcrtancd for time 20 the election OF senators
in the ID district, Qhe ballot being closo) be-
heve is removed by the publication of the Off
risl canvass in the Albany Evening Journal of Sat
uriay--which gives the three Wing candidates the
clection, viz. Humphrey, Sanford, and Root, the
latter only by ieo majori,y-though the average
Wing majority an The district is li2. The same
paper now claims the election Of 20 Wing members
TO SIS V. b., leaving Wing majority of IL. This
glorious result in the Empire State cannot be too
highly appreciated; and it would from tho
tremendous /" Hdse Of glory" exhibited in all the
Wing papers from Maine TO Georgia, especially those
on the battle frcand. Out Wing friends there seem
10 feel as Il ugh they had not only redeemed them
selves from N1ondage, bu, the whole country, and
heaven grant that j, may so turn out.
MAss,cHusrrrs.-The late general election in
the old Bay State looks though it had resulted
las, wcck-dsas,rous to the Wing cause, and to the
f'''
in tina, State, though still hope she may have cs
capped this fearful and degrading predcament.
The election was for Governor, Lieut.. Gov. and
members of the Senate and House of Representa-
lives
The Boston and other Massachusetts papers con
tain details in different parts Of the State, and the
aggregate exhibits a doubtful result, The Boston
Daily Times (the lates, news) says "ln 2il town,
heard from, the aggregate vote for Morton (V. B.
is 3soa7 for Everett, (Nbig) 1882" And "as tt
the legislature, very much depends upon the actua
result in this city Boston. II the Wings have car
rcd the full ticket here, their chance is bes, in botl
houses" subsequent, account states that tn
Wings carried As on, of 55 members of the Iious'
Of Representatives, and out of the senators.
In a postscript, No. ., in the same paper, the ed
nor says, "The returns from 'Od Berkshire cam'
in better for Everett than was expected, and he il
now 100 ahead. As far as is heard from, his chance
is the best"
UrThc Atlas Of Thursday, it is said, gives re
turns Of votes for Governor in 255 towns, which
stands for Everett i2i55 Morton, 4I75I. Tn
ATLAS thinks Everett is elected, also majority
Wings in both branches of the legislature.
CONGRESSIONAL EiEcTroSs-There were two va
cancies TO fiji in Congress in Massachusetts. In tn
9Th and in suffolk districts. In the former there
said to be no choice Mr.. Lawrence is elected i
he Suffolk district by about 400 majority
In remarking upon the election, one OF the Bosto
papers (,hc SignaD says
ais result is no more attributable 20 any direc
political influence than i, is to the stoppage of III
opium trade in China There were, in Boston
nearly dozen different tickets, each supported b
distinct party organization, with views as diiierer
as those OF Brahmns, Moslems, Romanis,s or Pres
byerians and hardly one OF them predicating II
CLAIMS TO support upon its advocacy Of any know
political creed. The fifteen gallon men and the
opponents constituted the strong parties, and NOR
votes were unquesiionably cast with rcierenc
N the hcence question than for against the indie
pcnden, Treasury. That national politics had yer
little 10 do with the election of Stale officers, is
dent from the fact that Mr.. Abbott Lawrence, III
opposition candidate for Congress, has much grea
" majority in Boston than Mr.. Everett, who is pei
soaally, perhaps the most popular man in the cit!
received for Governor. Besides the opposition
The enemies OF the new hcence law, Mr.. Everett ha
10 encounter the preludices engendered by the pa
sage al the bill Of last year taking from the member
Of volunteer military companies an annual foe ni IN
collars. In many parts Of the State Milial
Ticket was opposed to the regular opposition non
!aAtons by members Of the same party.
Micmols-In the midst of our SORROWS for u
,sverscs al the East, We ohoored with bless
good news from the West. The Wing papers fro
Michigan which have just come 10 hand are hil'
With loud hozsnnal.s ior the probable triumph OF q
Wing cause at the election in that State. The ID
soi Advertiser Of Nov. OH, says that 1--WE belle
us can safely announce TO readers and 20 {
Wings Of the Union that MICHIGAN Is X
DEEMED. Sufiicien, returns have been receis
Ia warrant this gratifying conclusion This rest
t'hese papers say) viii be
AwHIG GOVERNOR,
AWHis LE6IsLlTVKE,
A HAig UAsicd States Senator.
