LocoFoco REJoIciNG.--lt was said, some days
ago, than The Cass locolocracy Of Boston inlen-
ded TO hail the removal of Marcus Morton from
the post of Collector of Boston by salute Of
one hundred guns--nol in his honor, but in re-
joicing at his decapalon. The removal has
been made, the powder has been burned, the
Iocolocracy have huzzaed at the fall Of their
quondam friend and leader, and the Boston
Post, with an ingralitude unparalleled, tejolces
particularly as lollows
"Marcus Morton, whose removal from office
true democrats here have labored TO effect for
several years--whose removal was recommen-
ded by democratic caucus Of The members oI
the Maine Legislature, and by unanimous vote
Of the Massachusetts Democratic State ConVen'
tion--wil end his official career this day. h
Mr.. Polk and Mr.. Walker had done their duty
faithfully, we should not have been dependent
upon Gen. Taylor and MI. Meredith for favor
we now most gratefully acknowlede, viz; The
riddance of Marcus Morton. The cannon's
mouth will to-day proclaim the satisfaction the
Democrats of Boston experience at the event
we wish it could be loud enough TO revetberate

they cannot be regarded, since they have sup
