TIE ELECTION IN THIS COUNTY.

We not much disappointed by the result
as arc some Of our friends. We were pre- pared for
and expected o,bo thrown into minority 800 be-
low last yoal; but minority is over 400 more,
II being last wear about 100 for Governor, and this
year it is 500. No sooner had the County
Court-at the solicitation Of some promi nent Van
Buren, men, we have been told-decided to with
hold licences from certain merchants and tavern
crs, last June, Than it was apparent that the " b.
party would make out of this decision IA political
capital of some or 300 votes. And, with their
usual consistency, they have done it. In most
every town, secretly, where it dangerous to do
so openly, the war whoop Of down with the anti
conco Court and Whggory, was raised by the
Custom House runners and their demagogue asso-
ciates, which answered the purpose intended, and
defeated tho Wings in three or four towns, and
operated against them in nearly every other town
in the Cuunty-this too, when many OF the prom
nent members Of HE V. b. party oountenancod and
approved the doings Of the Court 1t was tho opon
boast Of one OF their runners and an officer OF The
temperance society, in presence on election day
that his party candidate in Waterford was running
in Ly Stcam. The game worked as il was designed
it should--il answered for election We do by no
means impIicHto all of our opponents in this meas
uro; but only those who deem falsehood as good a
weapon as the truth in oeclioneerng affairs, and
who scrupu not TO use il when it will servo their
sinister designs.
Let not our friends be discounted or discouraged
by this temporary gloomy aspect Of affairs. Hun
drods of our friends were not at the polls, who will
sec the necessity Of being there hereafter. Our
cause remains untarnshcd by the use Of the corrupt
means rcsorcd to 10y opponents TO carry their
points, Truth will triumph over misrepresentation
in due tIno. Our cause is that Of ruth Of virtue,
ofunivcrsal freedom, aud of Unconstitutional liberty
Let the dcmagogue shout over The triumph of cor
rupton and misruc-- Nero fddlcd when Rome was
