The anti. renters, il sppears, have at lengh en-
,ered the field as distinct and separate party, and
have m addition, thrown out an invitation to the

They speak as if they held the balance of power
throue bout the United States; but in this they are
mistaken In the State of New York, they have
here oore controlled the election of Governor, and
heir influence, tomorrow, might be Influential
enough to turn the scales in favor of even William
H. Seward. They must not, however, suppose
MAT This socialist principle. which was one of the
earliest isms of the New York Tribune, extends
beyond New York, albeit that Seward advocates 1t
n the United States Senate. An'rren.isu is but
fern of socialism, and il will be advocated by the
people at large, when the difference between right
and wrong is lost sight of, but not fll then. The
antirent question, in this State, is very simple
enc. 1t is THE, and this alone Shall man pay
what he has agreed and coveniEted 10 payl In
the ordinary affairs OF life, If man makes bad
bargain, he pockets the loss; but antiren.ers want
not only make profit out of bad bargain, but 10
sake prtperty which in no sense belongs 70 them
This is socialism in reality.
Another unsuccessful atten pt was made yester-
day BY the Massachusetts Legislature, TO elect a
United States Senator. Although Mr. Sumner is
apparently losing, the probability ia that he will
be eventually elected. In tina, State, as IN this,
constitutional scrupes will give way to the aboli
lion elemen, Of the North, and by way of recon-.
pense to The South, some Union committee will
pass batch OF r, solutions deprecating the act. In
other words the North will steal slaves, and pay
for them in resolutions.
The equinoctiel storm, il appears, was as severe
down east as It was in New York. The damage
which il occasioned there was very great az we

Election OF Ex-Governor Fish a United
seases Observation-Disclosures OF sewardism In
New York.
The Geographic intelligence Of yesterday NOR
nng, ar announcing the election of Ex-Governor Fish
6 United States Senator, startled the community.
kv@y one had supposed that this impor, mt ques-
non had been disposed of, far as the Legislature
was concerned, and that II would come directly
before the people al the next election. II seems,
however, that the Influence Of Seward and his
party 10 New York, have broken down all opposi-
son, carried every thing before them, and elected
their candidate as United States Senator. Some
persons say that the election is illegal and uncon-
s,,u,iona and that Governor Fish will be rejected
States Senate, during The next session. The moral
effect, however, Of the election Of that gentleman,
which 10 in favor Of increasing the Influence Of
Seward and his party 10 his great State, is not
affected by any constitutional scruples The result
b fore the world, that William II. Seward Is the
great Magician that manages New York, and car
r,es all it's political influence in his bag breeches
