his satellites Of the ticket and have reaiiseu
all and more than gave you reason to expect anu
more than most sanguine friends had anticipated

| rous REPUBLICAN TRIUMPH IA rietory of which we
may well feel proud il is noble stride IN The on
ward march of truth and liberal Republican princi-
Piles. Massachusetts is now to be found in the ga
laxy of her sisters in the bright constellation OF Ike
| publican glory we have revolutonized the state,
and given our opponents signal Waterloo defeat

trast and that, too, among their own neighbors and
immediate friends where they best known in all
their relations of life.
| The Coons have elected three members to Con-
gress--W nthrop, Adams, and Burnell Williams IS
the only Democrat elected there being six districts
in which no choice was effected.
The State Senate w II stand at its organization,
SIXTEEN Democrats to Coons; the House, thus
far l49 Democrats, and 1874 Coons and Abo-
litonist. For more minute details, you have re-
course to your exchanges My impression is, that
our chance is more than equal in the towns yet TO
elect, and think we shall have a majority in the
House of Representatives. which case we may
have the Governor Senate and House, and thus the
whole State is ours, event which we have good
reason to anticipate. Well may we exult at the
prospect FOR popular rights this is the harbinger of
a better state Of things even in old Federal hlassa-
chusetts
The most stout-healted could hardly suppress their
sympathies, TO witness that poor old Coon, with his
bones all broken, and his body awiully mangled.
| told you in my last, that we should have family
gathering TO how he looked after he was skinned;
but found him. at the close OF the election, IN such
! a mutilaed condition. that we looked at him with
pity and surprise and, exclaimng that ''ihe way oil
the traLsgressor is indeed, hard, we left him as he
is Grip, lie for life and ali the of Coons have
either migrated crept into their holes aifrighed

The malignant calumniators Of Mr. Tyler will find
to their cost, that some of the ancient Athenan
spirit exists in beloved country As in the days
of its glory and renown, insult offered TO citizen
Of Athens was regarded an insult to the Common
wealth, so in republican America, an insult to the
| President is and will be deemed as an insult to the
whole People and from the entire length and
breadth of the land, the traducers Of our excel
lent Chief Magistrate will find their poisoned
arrows, aimed at the head of the Nation, hurled
back by an insulted and indignant People, rebound
ing upon them with tenfold force and power, nlict-
Ing wounds from which they will never recover ;
while we are confdng and patriotic nation we are
also sensitive of honor jealous OF our liberties,
| and as freemen, will guard, with seepess vigilance,
the high dignity, integrity and sacred rights Of all,
|
for which, as people, we are so distinguished; JUS
tce though sometimes tardy, is nevertheless, GER
ain-a fact which, long, will be realized in the
heartfelt 10y and happiness of the distinguished Re-
publican head of the nation while his rash, reckless
ultra opponents will have to hide their diminished
heads in guilt and overwhelming defeat and despair
such is the inevitable result Of 'the sober second
thought All the elections that have taken place,
the noble spirit manifested by portion of the public
press, and assemblages of calm, rejecting disinte-
rested People throughout the land, and the glorious
victory in Massachusetts, all SO to confirm my posi-
ton that the People ready TO confde in, pro-
,ect and Defend to the utmost all faithful and time
bonored public servants-so, also, those who trans
cend their public trusts, and follow "bnd guides, -
are sure to be visited with just rebuke from the Peo-
nile and doomed to encounter stern, reributive JUS
| tice.
p S. BY the foregoing returns, which are the la
test. YOU will have received, Qor Representatives
we now stand thus:
| Goyernor-No choice by the People.
Republicans. Clay.
