New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1851-02-17

For the first time in several years, by the
aid of lavish and prohigate disbursement
of money, the State of New Jersey was last
Fall carried by the party which vaunts itself
Democratic who secured large MAORI
ty for Governor and were understood to
have control also of the Legislature. The
watchwords of Reform and Progress were
profusely and potentially used to produce
this result-and nowhere in the Free
States are reform and Progress more need
ed than in that same State of New ersey.
The Wings have ruled economically, mod
erately, uprightly; but they had failed to
keep up with the march Of events and Of
ideas had failed with regard to Popular
Education, abolition of all distinctions
founded on Property, and some other
points. Behind the barrier they thus in
terposed to the tendencies Of the age,
force gradually, slowly accumulated
which, when the time had come, swept all
before it. The Governor would thus have
been lost to the Wings any how; but the
Legislature was carried against them by
money poured out in enormous prOfusion.
1t was barely carried, even thus; the Sea-
ate standing 10 to 10; the House 90 to 10;
but two or more of the 10 Wings were
elected by Opposition votes over the regu-
lar Wing candidates. 1t was therefore
clear enough that the victors would have
working majority unless they should fall
out by the way.
Before the election, and still more after its
result, the Wings loudly complained of
wholesale bribery and corruption urged
that the money so prOfusely scattered could
not have been furnished by the candidates nor
by their individual friends, but must have
been contributed from some affluent source
under the impulse of pecuniary as we'll

LATE From AFRICA.

By the bark Edgar, Capt Ellis, which arrived
on Saturday from Monrovia, West Africa, whence
she sailed on the 18th of December, we have
copies Of the Liberia Herald to that date. The
Message of President Roberts to the Liberian
Congress has been published. 1t is lengthy
document and gives an interesting view of the
present condition Of Liberia; but we have no
space this morning to make extracts The follow.
ing is the only item Of interest:
STEAMER AsHoRE.-Her Maiesty's steam YES
sci Flamef," Commander st. Leger on her pas.
sage TO Sierra cone, ria Monroyia with dispatch
es from Commodore Fanshawe took the beach
about 90 miles south Of this place on the night of
the 18th ultimo. 1t appears that on the afternoon
of the day, standing in for the above coast,
they made the land in the neighbOrhood OF Grand
Bassa, and at ?. NJ. judging themselves, accor-
ding to the distance run by the log, up with Cape
Measurable, and seeing a light 90 shore which
they mistook for Cape Measurable light, they stood
in, as they supposed, for the harbor. The night
being dark the first intimation thew had of 40.
preaching near the land was the cry Of bre akers
ahead and simultaneously the vessel struck
the beach. The engines were Immediately re.
versed, her guns shot, &c. &c were thrown over,
and every effort made to extricate her, but with.
out success The following morning, a messen-
ger from Captain st. Leger reached here with the
intelligence OF the situation of his vessel. Mr..
Hanson, the British Consul, started Immediately
in the English cutter Georgians, Capt Straw,
and was on the spot at an early hour next day.
Every possible assistance has been rendered by
the authorities here. The Government schooner
Lark was, Immediately on her arrival, placed at
the service OF Capt St. Leger but regret to say,
for the want Of proper appliances, every effort
has been unavsiling. Some two or three OF Her
Msjesty's vessels are daily expected from Sierra
Leone, and hopes are still entertained of getting
her off
