"LiHle Rhody, God bless her."-This
was the language of Henry Clay, on
hearing # the triumph of Tyranny oVer
the sovereignty of the people, in Rhode
Island. His political friends, too, true
to their British instinct, take up the
note, and cry "God bless little Rhody''-
and what is a greater insult still, TO a
free, enlightened, and patriotic people,
is the assurance with which they assert
that this anne Henry Clay is the cham
pion of the peoples rights. Who are
the people? If TO be the watchfnl friend
and jealous advocate Of the interests OF
The aristocratic and wealthy fer, estab-
fishing in them the right 10 ride over
and grind 10 the dist the POOR but hon
est and hard working masses, Why then
is Henry Clay the advocate Of The peo-
pies rishts-and not otherwi.e.-Why
did Mr.. Clay invoke the blessing ofGod
on %"little Rhody'" as he calls her; be-
cause of her outrageous violation cf TIE
elective franchise, making her citizens
mere ~vassals TO a landed aristocracy:
Yes, when the death knell Of the sove-
reignty OF the people in r. Island reach
ed Mr.. Clay in the shades Of Ashland
he exclaims "God bless Little Rhody,''
she has trodden under foot The sove,
reignty of the people, and denied their
right by popular najorities, TO alter or a
mend their constitution, therefore, "God
bless her." says Mr.. Clay. To put our
readers in possession of the questions al
issue in Rhode Island, and the history Of
the contest which resulted in the tri-
umph of the aristocracy, we refer them

Liberty" in Saint Louis, come weeks

ELECTION NEWS.

Having been absent in attendance on
the Democratic Mass Meeting at Troy,
we have neither time nor space TO give
so.full a..report of the elections recently
held in several Of the States, as we
should be glad sto. do. In Georgia the
Democratic majority in ~69fcoun,ies, is
3.0l5-2i counties:to be heard from,
which will probably swell it ia about
5000, The Second, Fourth, Fifth and
Sixths, Congressional districts, from
which complete returns have been re-
ceived, have all returned Democratic
members.
PEzNsYLvASIA.-Shunk, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor, is elected
by a majority of ! or 5000. The result
in all the counties except five, 6,962 ma
jority for Skunk, The five counties TO
be heard from. gave Van Buren, in 1910,
a majority OF 6o2.
The Harrisburg Union classes the
members of the Legislature, SO far as as,
certained, as follows:
(D.) (W.) Natives.
Senate--old mem. l6 6 |

Being a Democratic net gain of two
members.
OnIo.-The returns, official and re.
ported, from all the counties in Ohio,
show Bartley's majority to be about zoos

will be overcome in the Presidential e.
