We have only time to say to our readers this morn
ING that Rhode Island rs redeemed. We have elected
our entire State ticket by handsome majority. We
have also elected one member Of Congress div-
ding the delegation--and have driven the wings to
the wall in the Eastern District Their candidate,
if elected at ALL is elected to the IHrtyrSt the
defunct Congress- (thus read their tickets) and on
" to that by very meagre majority. Mr. Thurs
ton is elected by splendid majority. and excel
lent candidate for Governor Mr. Allen, walks over
the course far in advance of his competitor. The
vote is full one and the victory is all the more
complete. The Assembly is yet in some doubt: but
we feel confident that we shall have the Senate by
one majority and that we stand tolerable chance
of the House also
Our democratic friends have done well-nobly.
They have not shrunk from their duty in q single
town. In our city-the very hot-bed of whiggery-
they have fought nober battle than ever before.
They abored earnestly and perseveringly, and the
result is creditable to them and to their cause
Below we give the returns from all but two towns.
Mr. Aliens majority will be nearly one thousand.
The others upon the ticket have from FIVE to eight
hundred majority. Our returns received by tel
egraph and express. in connexion with the Journal
