! The triumph ofrepubiean principles on Monday.
iE our glorious OLD Massachusetts has lceu anon.
er proud chnp.si upon her crows olscady richly
garnlshe6 with the wgeaihs Of hard came victories
In the of Constitutional liberty. The train.
hands at domestic corruption, in league with foreign
cuplduy and foreign oppression, have Teen met "
the iieenen Of Massachusetts, cr6, m spite OF the
most adverse Circumstances tina; ever tired tie
courage, the hdelly OF the integrity 81 man, have
come gu, OF he rife not ory unscathet hu; no.
bly, triumphant. The voice n. Old Massachusetts,
has once more been heard, ard = now sS ever, On
the SIDE OF the laws and the interests OF her own
sons. The advocates OF Hor.onlsl tarliis-tre met
who would sacrifice the American mechanic u c
American l,borer and the American merchant, to
please the wh.m Of selfish and sectional pTeIuJicC
or 10 crafty the graspnS and ovcr-reschlug cup-

low wages, no-meAt doctrines for the hard handed

work shops, and remove them across the A. ante
these men, the enemies of their country, and mad.
ly subvcrsyc Of their own Interests, have been me-
at the polls, AMI IA spite of every circumstance
which coGspired 10 favor them, have been most
signally routed.
The Agrariin Govcrnor-the perpetual Office
seeker, has once more been reminded 10y his Tel
low citizens that private station is 4 more hIus
place than the h0noss he covets only To abuse and
tarnish. How nobly-how g,orIo9sy has the II
Bay State maIntAned her integrity through the pitt
less storm OF Loco FocoIsm, even more relentless
than that OF the elements which beat upon her sons
on Monday Noble, glorious old Commonw ealih!
In VAIN all the seiucuons or a. the assaults OF
your subtle and formidable assaI!snis, iUr YOU are
IEnce fortified In the armos Of iuviuclOe integrity

the Wings OF Massachusetts, never experienced
more severe tia, than 10 sustain themselves al.
the ate election. They hid TO endure alike the
disappointment and clsErin 1t unloward events al
the capita, spathy ana indifference in their own
ranks-that most tryIGg and oscouras gg OF a. OBJ
STAG es-and almost overwhe. ming and discouraslrg
reverses throughout the Union. In the face oil these
adverse and most trying circumstances, aud not
wIlhsIandng the state OF the elements, which took
from Us the votes Of macy hundreds OF fair weather
voters, Massachusetts has maniu..y buheted and
healen back the advancing waves of LocoiocoIsm.
The people Of Mass 'chuseIs have once more called
| upon Homes, John Davis to preside over her coun-
| cils-whIe upon our Legislature hardly an i'm
| preston nee been made To her recedus SISTERS,
IN their temporary Disgrace and defeat, the Old Bay
Stat holds out her spotsss banner, and calls upon
them nov, as before, 10 rally around l. But whe.
| Their they come at her call or hold back, 10 them
she again proca.ms, IN the deep tones OF the 6a'
