TnE ELECTIONS

Yesterday the Elections took place throughout
the State. Here the weather was good, and the
wind being from the West and cool, we infer tina, it
vas fair in every part OF the Commonw ealth-a
great blessing to candidates and peope-as il saves
both world OF trouble.
The contest is overland for the next few days II

We trust they will be such as will bc most agree.

no, undertake to speak positively. We know that
the wings had it in their power to sueceed-but
there has been no general organization Of the party
this spring. Every county has fought, as it were,
on its own hook, and carried on n sort Of GUERRILLA
warfare, while the adversary has been united, and
thoroughly organized and drilled. This has given
a great advantage against us-and If in spite Of IL,
We have succeeded, We may well deem ourselves
invineible.
But whatever be the result, we are ready for il.
II victorious, we shall rejoice with becoming mode
there is such word as despair,
in our vocabulary. and we have goodly stock Of
philosophy laid up-which, If luckily we have no
occasion for, We shall oyfully transfer to our neigh.

ERROR CORRECTED.

The statements which the Enquirer is in the ha-
bit OF putting forth facts the eve Of elections
have long since come to be rated at their true value
and sensible puts any faith in them. Never
thelcss, as there may be persons of different Sort
who are at times mised by its Munchausens. it be.
comes proper now aud them to put forth reiutation
With tdis view, We publish the following letter
from gentleman in New York, whose word may
be implicitly relied on
Correspondence Of the whg.
NEW YORK, April 25, Isl2.
took IN, this morning, the Richmond Enquirer
OF lao, Friday containing letter from this city-a
letter full c, ia.ehood and base cppeas to party pre-
JUDGE in relation to the HcME INDUSTRY CosvEs.
rIoS. One fact is stated in that letter-ihat ALvos
STEWART. the Aboli,ions,, attended the Conven.
,ion, where he made Speech; but the writer goes
on TO nsinuate most fouly that Stewart is friendly
TO MIR Clay and the Wings, rhereas his Speech ,eas
pioSI bitter ia its dtnuneiaiOnS aud malignant an its
inpssehm. MIS- of MIR. CLAY, eeeuSing hfn of irtaei
cry and ruin TO the interests Of the Free States in N,
passage Of n, Compromise .4ei. So harsh were his
denunciations Of Mr. Clay and the South, that he
was instantly corrected 10y Hon. Henry Shaw, OF
Mass who SPOKE in their vndicaon, amid the en-
thusiasuc plaudi,s tine whole Convention. was
member, actively engaged in its proceedings, and
familiar with It's members, and know there oas
not another ,ibol,tionisi in besides ALvox SrEw.
Ant.
Stewards Speech reported for Wing Paper,
(The Tribune,l but the Editor, on reading it, de.
c'ined 10 publish it. I, will soon appear however,
IN the Abolition Papers, and then you will see that,
though much softened from what it was when de
vered IN the hope Of getting it into the Tribune,
it is repletc with a malignity against Mr. Clay
which not Richie himself could surpass.
But this is not oil. Not only is eUery Abolition
ist bitterly. furiousy hostile TO Mr. CLAY, but nine
tenths of them are also hostile the Protection OF
Home Industry, and as thorough Free Trade men
as the Lo-o Focos. Such is Gerri,t Smith, their
great leader, and the author of the seditous "Ad.
dress to the Slaves" which is falsely attributed to
Avon Stewart in the Enquirer; are all their pa
pers which say any thing on the subject They
are all for universal philanthropy, and taking care
OF every body else first, and ourselves last. Their
"Aboiionst," in the centre of the State, is flaming
on this subj-c, and Gerrt Smith has written in de
fencc of Free Trade in several papers-and in the
"Nor,hcrn Light" a, Albany.
Hoping that you will find room for refutaton
OF most insdious caiumny, am,

To the cIimes We visit, beautiful Spring,
What are the gins We will deign to bring "

The budding rose and the lily bloom,
The song OF birds in the leafy grove,
And the hum of bees in the green alcovs. g.,
will deck the forest ~ robes Of green,
will gem the shrub by the rivers sheen,
will hang CAV tassels on groves ofpine,
And wreathe their trunks with the trusting vine.
will tinse the streams with the lovely hue
ofthe aowpry medows il wanders through,
And lull It's waters with songs to sleep, 49,
While the brigh: stars watch in lis quiet deep"
Bu, whsl do We ask in return, fair Spring,
For the lovely things, and the gifts ye bring
II ask for the foUers, yet not the same
That gave l., the beautiful when came;
| ask for the sLdrs-but they do not glow
In the skies above or the waves below
The rosy lip aud the laughing eye,
The heart whose ihrobbngs are wild and high,
The smiling cheek and the glossy hair,
The pearly brow like seruph's fair,
10 deck for his banquet deaths gloomy urn
These are the gifts ! ask in return" 20. B.
