| "Complee.
In the ITO towns from which returns have been re-
ceived the democrats have elected 1885 members of the
Legislature, and the ederasts no. Last year, the same
towns returned l9 democrats and 1877 fedealists Dem
ocratc nett gain SO. The towns to be heard from will
probably increase the democratic majority in the House
OF Representatives 10 40.
OF the twelve senators, the democrats have elected
nine, and the federaliss probably two In one district
there is choice The vacancy will be filled with
democrat
OF the council, consisting of five members, the demo-
Gratis have elected four, and the federalists one Last
year the federasts had two in that body John Kelly
esq, an old war federalist, and who was member of
the council from the Rockingham district was defeated
He had the odum upon his shoulders of opposing two
just wars, and therefore object of particular dis
like with the people.
We observe that the democratic gains have been
largest in the regions of the State most affected BY the
treason of John p Hale In Dover his own residence
the democratic gain ST. and in Ossepee another town
IN which he had succeeded in producing dsaecton it
was 3that town resuming her original position in the
democratic ranks.
In the congressional district composed of Hlsborouab
and Cheshire counties, represented in Congress by
Mr.. Wilson, the democratic gains are very large and
indicate that his term in Congress must be brief one
In short, the whole aspect OF the election shows that
the old Granite State has thoroughly redeemed herself
and assumed her former mpregnable position in the
democratic ranks. We assured by intelligent gentle
men from that State that the democratic electoral ticket
will be elected in November, next by majority of not
| less than 5000.
| The Patriot adds:
Fory-ihree towns and voting places remain be heard
| from, which last wear folloyys.
The daily union. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1845-1857, 1848-03-25
Fory-three towns and voting places heart
from, which gave last year as follows:


Provided these towns come in before, Gov. Viii.
iamss majority will be 1905; but fair to presume
that they will render gain, we have doubt that his
majority over all will be full 3,0O0!"
The Patriot also naivey remarks: "Affairs in this
State assuming the old positions and the democracy
will hereafter prove nvncibe they before the
Hale treachery The party has been purged and much
better for it,"
To show the completeness of the democratic victory in
New Hampshire, and that sound principles have pre-
vailed in the election, copy the following extract from
"The Democrat and Freeman" the organ OF Hale and
the aboonists and which. by the way be it remarked,
organ and ally of southern aOhigs in their opposi-
ton TO democracy and the administration:
Contrary sangune expectations, the money frauds,
and drilled cohorts ola aveholdng and MISUNDERSTANDING
administration, have proved many for the friends OF
freedom. Although have pollod noble for the gal
representative of Stree principles free SOIL and free
msnore eue before last year. necessary to elect
governor of Ns,c Hampshrs-we beaten BY some
magic necromancy, known only the initiated, the friends
Of Williams and slavery have succeeded in polling vote
proporonably very much greater than thrown be-
fore either New Hampshire in any other State. Judg
ing from the thus far received, the whole vote can
fall short of 62000 which is for every four aud
half inhabitants That such number of legal voters
found in the State do believe. According to the
laws of population old State like New Hampshire, so
great a number of voters is impossible.

THE NEW CABINET.

Several of the papers--particularl those ha

are making themselves busy by specializing Dor
the composition OF General Taylor's Cabinet. The
President elect will doubtless feel the importance Of
these suggestions; hut, at this early day, it does
soem--to say nothing Of the ndelicacy of dilpa-
raging men of distinction by an endeavor to pre-
occupy the public mind-a little presumptuoub TO
undertake this sort of dictation We attach nosort
OF consequence to these little movements, and we
entertain. personaly~and politically, the highes re-
spect for those who have been named in this eon-
nexion; but these attempts, il countenanced by the
influential press, only lead 10 distraction andem-
barrassment. g."
General Taylor is fully competent to seled his
Cabinet without the aid of the newspapers |; and
we are quite willing to leave the responsbitywth
hln who was never known to shrink from it. fully
persuaded that he will take counsel of the hes and
most enlightened statesmen Of the country, andForm
such an Administration as will elevate its honor
and establish its prosperity The charactF of
General Taylor justfes this confidence, aI his
acts will approve it.
The Opposition papers need give themsel1s no
concern about the political complexion of tht Ad-
mlnlsiration. The Cabinet will be unfit and
there is not the remotest apprehension of dlscor-
dant element, TO derange the harmony Of its toun-
ellis or to disturb its agreement upon all the great
questions OF public policy.-NorM .americml
