Yesterday, ewing the snow-storm and gale of the
preceding night. Of course, we are without fur.
ther advices from Massachusetts, except that
friend who came down the Housetonic Railroad
reports that Beckett and one other town in BeIk-
shire County elected Wing Representatives on
Monday Dalton Loco, but the return is disputed
Springfield polled 200 mere votes than before, to
no purpose. We still think the chances best for
Davis and Wing ascendency.
1t was supposed last evening that the Norwich
boar with Wednesday evenings Mail from Boston
must be frozen up in the Thames. OF course, she
will be in this morning.
Two or three boats came down the Hudson Riv-
er yesterday-from Poughkeepsie, Ca,skill and
Hudson The Columbia left Hudson al o'clock
the evening BEFORE made Catskil and lay there Till
morning. The River obstructed by floating
ice above Rhinebeck; none below. we hope the
Swallow reached Rhinebeck if not Catskill nigh'
before last, but do not suppose last-night's boat
will get much if any above Poughkeepsie.

To tho Editor of The Tribune
Since the result of the Election in this State
has been known, my mind has labored in search
of reasonable cause for such revusion in public
sentiment-for it must be deemed as such whet
er produced by Whig apathy not. 1t s man.
fest to my mind that the Wings, as party, have
been greatly discounted and disappointed in their
high expectations Of relief from prevailing distress
in business, through their chosen Representatives
in Congress, whose acts have not come home to
the business or the bosoms of their constituents;
and that des pondency is creeping over them as o
party, which nothing short OF some prompt and de-
cisve measure in Congress TO regulate the genera
Currency and internal Exchanges, can disspate
Such of lhe Wings as have had leisure and ability
to trace the causes which have heretofore embar
ras.ed the Wing Members and divided the party
in Congress may find an excuse for the waste oi
SO much precious time, in the face of much pub
lie distress but nine tenths of the Wings through
out the country are dissatisfied. They realize
most grievously that, long the late Session was,
it produced measure for the relief of the people
occupied in industrial pursuits-in productive Ia
bor-except the Protective Tariff, which was o.
immense importance a first step toward resto
ration of order in buslness but was necessarily IL
ert of ITSELF without the establishment of general
Currency under the guaranty of the nation, around
which Confidence might rail- and be ultimately
sustained. | cannot but think that this is SOUND
view Of cause and effect and that it nationally
counts for the astounding revusions witnessed in
the Elections this Autumn. If the view | nave
taken is correct, there appears to be remedy
quite within the power OF the Wings In Congress
at the approaching short Session-and that is, to
take up at once, and establish by law, the NATION
AL ExcHfQUER, as recommended by the Cablncl
to be adopted by Congress in December last We
are assured that its provisions were subject OF
deep consideration by some of the ablest OF
our country who compose that Cabinet, concurrco
in by every member, and urged by them on
the consideration Of Congress the ready and
only practical means left TO restore a National Cur
rency general confidence, and those facilities III
Exchange for our widespread country without
which we shalt soon become dirided people
open to anarchy and revolution. All the objec-
tons TO that measure were anticipated and most
ably answered by the Secretary of the Treasury in
his Report accompanying the bill; and more re-
Gently it has been most powerfully advocated b!
Daniel Webs,er-a name that we all honor, and
associate with all that is great and wise states
man-honest and patriotic citizen.
After full reflection the bearing Of the pro-
posed National Exchequer on the business and in
of every man in Country feel jus,i.
fed in the opinion that the establishment Of thai
measure at the last Session. in connection with ,l.
Protective Tariff, would have secured the Wing as
cendsncy at the late Elections throughout the U.s.
ion, and that the prompt establishment Of it at This
Session, forms the only hope of Wing ascendanc,
for the future.
| cannot believe it possible that Wings can be
found in Congress who will oppose it because it i,
a Cabinet measure, advocated by Mr.. Webster,
and not emana,ng from Mr.. Clay have long
viewed Mr. Clay and MIR. Webster, rs the great
men of the Country Gf of the Age and i fee
assured tha, either would heartily support the re-
gular nomination of the other for the Presidency
as nagnanimously Henry Clay sustained the
nomina,ion of Harrison. These men have minds
altogether above the narrow partisan views and
pitiful jealousies which rule ;he conduct of too
many Wings at this time, and which their poli,i.
cal enemies labor 10 propagate TO the ruin of ous
party and the advancement of their own. Tha,
party played that game successfully the last Ses
sion, but trust that all Wings in Congress a, this
Session, will rally on the old and true ground
Union To. the sake of the Union.''
