Top OF their speed fortunately were kept in pretty
straight course along our broad avenue and continued
their course at full speed Notwithstanding every effort
OF the driver, assisted by Mr. John Tyler r, to stop
them When the carriage reached point opposite
Gallnbrun's European Hotel, colored man fortunate
succeeded in stopping the horses and thus the Presi
dent Mr. John Tyler ir, and the driver were most sea-
sonably and happily rescued from their perilous sua

ELECIlON OF STATE oENAIOh.
I'VE hap. met the enemy and they are ours"
HUZZA! THRICE HUZZA FOR COMPLETE
VICTORY FOR THE DEMOCRACY!l
Contrary 10 the general expectation of the most san
guine whigs Mr. Slide has been elected over the whg
champion Mr.. Roselius by handsome majority as
State senator today. Nothing but the strenuous
tons of the democracy could have produced resnt
satisfactory 10 every republican and advocate ofequal
rights.
This victory was achieved almost uEder the eyes Of
Mr. Clay be had drilled the party, and brought into
QUESTION every coon, ole and young. Victory was
promised them-defeat has been the result and the
chivarous democratic cock which was represented by
the Tropic of this morning as being despoled OF his
feathers aud in fair way of having his throat cut by
the insduous coon has risen in his might and given
such spur TO the varmnt as win for ever consgn him
to oblivion.
The election o. State senator is glorious triumph
indeed. "As the city goes, so goes the State" We
have but triumph to gain in order complete
the gUodwork, and that is-the election Of democratic
mayor. Whoever may benominatedby the demociacy
will be certain of election.
E5The last accounts from New Orleans state that
Mr.. Clay the whig candidate for the presidency, Mr.
Baer "The Buckeye blacksmith" and Mr.. Mosely,
the Kentucky pnmpmaker," had all left the city for
the North; ii wasgeuing ,owam for them in that sec
