State Elections.

Elections have lately taken place in
New YoRK, MASSACHUSETTS. MISSISSIPPI,
MICHIGAN and we believe DELAWARE. We
do not expect to find much cause for graf
ulation in the news that is to come from
them. In New York our friends seem to
have made no effort, but rather to have
held back their strength for the grand rally
of "A; and in Michigan, the locofoco gerry
mander has been too industriously at work
for the wings to make mu CHI Roadway. As
to Massachusetts, we feel confident that she
has driven out the spoilsmen from the high
places they have disgraced, and cast off
from her embrace the brbers and corrup-
tionists, who have furnished her honor and
degraded her name. Little Delaware! in
fair fight she cannot be otherwise than
whig, and of Mississippi we have strong
hope. We cannot but think that the "bor.
der beaglcs" have struck their prey, and
that the anti.borders and ~epudiators have
been rebuked and discarded by an honest pco.
ple But let our friends be prepared for
any result, neither despairing too greatly
nor hoping too strongly.

PROTECTION.

We suppose man, in few days, will
be hardly allowed to speak for himself, Mr.
Clay has been assailed for abandoning the
principle Of protection. We wonder if those
who make the charge will take his own tes-
timony on the subject. In February IS42,
Just before his retirement from thr Senate,
he introduced set Of general resolutions on
this and other subjects. That respecting
the Tariff Mr. Calhoun violently opposed,
and referred to the Compromise Act among
other things 'tas an abandonment Of the
Protection System" Mr. Clay said in re-
ply: M
The Senator from South Carolina prefac-
ed the enumeration of his objections to the
resolutions submitted by me, with declaring
that they violated the act; and he said that
it was perfectly well known that he would
never have consented to the act, but for
the conviction that it involved complete
abandonment of the protective policy Of the
country. Now, Mr. Clay must say in reply
to this, that, for one, he knew no such
thing but on the contrary, he knew d.
rectly the reverse. 1t did not abandon the
protective policy-far from it; it embodied

LOcOfOco Candidates for the
Presidency.


The iocofocos are certainly at no loss
io- candidates. they count them now in
every section Of the country. The north
presents them VAN buren, and BUCHANAN,
the wet is ready with JOHNSON and CAss,
and the south enters CALHOUN as her free
Offering to the general fund. Each and all
Of them are willing to serve the country
and the only difficulty seems to be, that
the country is not willing to serve them.
The friends of each candidate are strain.
ing every nerve and stretching every fibre,
to advance their man. They are plotting
and counter plotting all over the land, and
from present appearances there is to be a
regular field fight between the opposite
factions. Their National Convention meets
at Baltimore in May, and in our opinion,
the ''little magician will throw a spell
over that body and secure the nomination.
At least we hope be will, because we wish
him 10 be convinced that the sober second
thought is indeed generally right, and al.
ways efficient. We want to see him bea.
ten as we are confident he can and will be,
even more shamefully than in 1910. We
want him to be forced into knowledge oil
his own nothingness, in the hearts of the
people. We wish to show him and his
friends, that he is not only unpopu lar, but
that he and his principles are scorned and
detested by the democracy of numbers
But, if we cannot be gratifed in this res.
pect, we care not who is the nominee -
whether it be Van Buren,, johnson, Calhoun
or Cass, or all of them. We can beat them
single handed or in couplets, individually
or collectively. With "OLD HAL" as our
leader, We can whip them all, and give
them JOHN TYLER and his mendicant crew
as backers.' 1t matters not to us how thew
fix it, they are certain to be defeated, and
before another year runs out, the locofocos
themselves, those Of them who are not blind
with rage and disappoin tment, will come to
the same opinion. We see it clearly and
now we have no more doubt OF the election
Of HENRY CLAY in IA, than that JOHN TY.
LER will 60 out of the presidency. The
one result is as certain as the other.

CLAW Clubs.

Our wing friends are already at work
forming Clay Clubs in the States and the
time will soon be, when every city, and ev'
cry county and every village in the union /,
where there is wing spirit to direct, and
a whig arm to strike, will feel the activity
and influence Of these associations. The
locoiocos are already alarmed and justly
too, because they remember with sorrow
and sadness the Tippecanoe clubs OF 1S4O.
They have NOT forgotten the determined
energy-the untiring exertions, and un-
tlincing game of The log cabin boys in the last
contest and they know that such efforts
are irresistible. They therefore fear the
Clay Clubs, and tremble in their shoes when
they hear OF their formation. These clubs
are scattered all over Virginia, and the
Richmond Enquirer sounds the alarm and
calls on its friends to conteract the wing
movements. Mr. Richie talks in earnest.
His is not langnage for stage effect. but of
calm reflection, for he sees that unless a
corrective is speedily applied. the old
dominion breaks from his traces. He feels
that there is great danger, aud he seeks by
timely admonitions, to put his friends on
their guard. He is right-there are breakers
ahead, and the hopes Of loco(ocoism are
sure to be wrecked They arc lost. dashed
forever, and after the next presidential con-
test, locofocos and locofoco principles will
have vanished together. They will not
even be remembered, SO great will be their
odium ad degradation. aii ~ eo i
We rejoice at the trepidation Q: Mr.
Richie, because we know he is not the man
to cry out before he is hurt. He never
calls for assistance when there is no need of
it, and never summons his men to their
work unless there be a necessity for action.
We rejoice too, that the Clay clubs which
are to him such source Of annoyance, are
doing their duty, and we trust, ay we
know they will not disband, or tire in their
lexertious until tho victory is won. and

Arrest of Daniel O'Connell.

The steamer Britannia arrived at Boston On
the 4th inst, and brought Intelligence OF
the arrest Of Ireland's great ag;tator, Mr.
O'Connell. He was arrested 1t Dublin on
the l4th of October, upon warrants issued
b. Judge Burton, on information sworn be-
fore him on the previous day. He appear.
ed ut the Judges chambers about o'clock
in the evening attended by few OF his
friends, and after reading over the infor
nation on which the warrant was issued,
declared his readiness to give the requisite
bail. He and his son Mr. John O'Connell,
who was arrested at the same time and on
the same information, then entered into u
recognizance Of $4,000 each. to appear on
the 6rst day of the Term, to answer a
charge Of conspiracy and misdemeanor. u
Mr. O'Connell Immediately published an ad.
dress to the people Of Ireland stating the
fact, and grounds of his arrest, and conjur.
ing them to observe the most perfect tran
guilty and entreating them under no con.
sideration to break the peace or violate the
law. On the next day-Sunday, there was
large and enthusiastic meeting Of the re
pealels at Helston Green. They were ad-
dressed by Alderman Grace, DR. Grey, and
Mr. John O'Connell. who wasl there as the
representative Of his father. Mr. O'Connell
himself addressed the repeal association Of
Dublin on the 10th, with his usual fervor
and boldness of manner. So it seems the
repeal agitation goes on as bravelv as ever
although more arrests among its leading
advocates are spoken Of, and it is thought
soon to be made. 1t will all amount to no
thing, for the moro arrests the Government
orders, the stronger and more determined
viii grow the ranks Of the repealers. The
question is not thus to be disposed Of ar

for reform, they demand the restoration Of
their rights, and if their petitions are not
heard, ii their remonstrances are not favor.
ably attended to, the British monarchy will
be shaken to its centre. The Government
may hang O'Connell if it dare, may fine and
impr;son his aids if it will, Blu: it can
not force the people into submission. Their:
is asprit abroad among them, which is moi
thus to be put down; and we predict tina
the government will be forced to yield t
the people, before the people submit to tn.
government. A crisis rapidly approaches
and we look to the result with great anxi

people to be triumphant. p

have great and just weight with the Amer
lean people. because his talents, judgment
and patriotism are undoubted. Hence, MIR

processes to adopt Mr. Clay's sentiments.
And hence, the Free Press of Saturday at
tempted to show, in parallel columns,
that Mr. Val, Buren, was nearly as sound on
the. Tariff question, as Mr. Clay himself.
But it takes care to quote from only ONE set
Of Mr. Van Buren, s opinions, when it is no.
torious that he has TWO sets, one for the
North, and the other i2r the South.
We will contrast Mr. Van Buren's South
ern opinions with those OF Mr. Clay.

thus: The people in tina, year called for a

Silas Wright and Martin Van Buren, were in
Congsess from this State. These gentle
men determined to eoncoct such Tariff as
should compel the New England members
to vote in the NEGATIVES; and this they al
fected by imposing extraordinary duties On
Molasses and other raw products largely
consumed in New England. In this way

the Middle States that Mr. Adams especial
