Election Returns,

Had any stranger been IN Lewlstown last
year and seen the energy and perseverance,
with which the wings labored, and again Wis
tied our town on Tuesday last, he could hardly
have believed that these men had fallen into
such state OF suplneness end inactivity as
characterised their movements on the laltef
day. A few, it is true, who are ever at their
posts did all in their power, but SO lew III num-
Der were they, that no attention Whatever
could be paid TO dilatory or doubtful votes
! The consequence was that an open field pre-
sented itself to our more active opponents. who
improved the opportunity with all the skill and
tactics for which they are proverbial, and thus
achieved triumph they may well be proud OF,
and of which the wings ought to be heartily
ashamed. Some cause for dissatisfaction may
other matters to which we may some day re-
fer--but notwithstanding there is no excuse
for having voted the entire locofcco ticket, as
considerable number most undoubtedly must
have done.
In some Of the townships our friends, under
the circumstances, did well, while Ill others
the usual apathy that invariably follows sue
cessful campaign prevailed in its full extent
THIS is certainly very strange method OF sup
porting those whom the people last year eie-
waited to power. In the case of the National
Administration, there are enough slavery men
elected to Congress from the South, when
Joined to their present allies of the north-ab-
olitionists and protesting free soilers-to CON-
mand a majority in that body; and now, in this
State instead Of elecsing Legislature willing
to give the measures of Gov. Johnston a fair
trial, they have sent a majority of partizans
who will spare no efforts to embarrass him. IF
the interests of the State should suffer through
this negligence-if the people IN few years
should be sadded with more taxation to supply
the money that UiH be sQuandered on the ca.
nals those who aided in bringing about this
result, can lay the blame Oh their own shoul.
