Unpreparcd for open revolt because deserted
by their leaders, one resource was left them
non-detiOa. They could not be forced to swal-
low the Compromise, the Fugitive Law, and
Negro Slayery-so they stad at home; and
their INSCRIPTIONS leaders, who fondly hoped
by their apostacy to recommend themselves to
the Administration and the South, and secure
at once Federal and State Patronage, find that
they have played the fool, as well as she trail
tor-that they are at last stripped of the power
10 make their treason available to themselves
or acceptable to the masters before whom they
have gone through so many genufiexions.
God grant that it may ever be so-that they
who SOW the wind may reap the whirlwind-
that the Slave Power may find in every North
ern vassal only pauper and n burden.

THE RESULT OF THE ELECTION IN MAssACHU.
SETS

The telegraph brings intelligence of the tri-
umph Of the Wings in the election held in
Massachusetts on the 14th instant. The vote
for Governor, in 3lS towns, is: For Washburn,
Wing, 576S2: Bishop, Dem, 32,676; Wilson,
Ind. Dem, 28,459; Wales, Hunker Dem, ), 1863 !;
scattering, 500. The new Constitution is de-
feated by a majority of from 5000 to 5000
On the Legislative ticket, the Wings have made
such gains that it is said they will have ma
jOrity in the Legislature, and thus be able to
elect the Governor and State officers.
Many circumstances conspired to produce this
result. The people of Massachusetts, are consti-
tutionally conservative, and the Money Power in
that State is always potent. The Wing Party,
specially representing the conservative element,
and devoted to the interests of Property, is
necessarily so formidable, from its wealth and
numerical strength, that unless all the antago-
nistc views and interests can be combined
against it, it must prove invincible. In rare
cases, such combination has been effected and
that policy which had given the State to the
Coalition for few years, was attempted to be
carried out in the late canvass. But circum-
stances were not suspicious. The extreme pro-
slavery character of the Admnistr alton, and
the shameless pledges Of devotion to its plat.
form given by the Coalition Democrats dis
gusted many of the Free Soil or Independent
Democrats Mr.. Adams and Mr.. Palfrey, men
of undoubted integrity and great weight of
character, felt constrained to take an open
stand against the new Constitution, with which
the Coalition was identified. On the other
hand, the extreme Hunker Democrats assailed
the Coalition, because it gave countenance to
Free-Soilism Thus weakened on both sides, the
Coalition was further embarrassed by the
manifesto from Washington, from Caleb Cush-
ing, announcing the intention of the President
to prescribe every Democrat who should favor
it, or stand as Coalition candidate lndg-
nant rs might have been the majority of the
Party at this gross act Of Federal informed
ding it did its work for in every Party there
are plenty of men weak enough to be awed or
corrupt enough to be bribed, by Power.
To the action of the Hunker faction of the
Democracy, to the base concessions of the more
liberal section of the Party, and to the nsolent
intermeddling Of the pro-slavery Democratic
Administration at Washington, are to be at
tributed chiefly, the triumph of the Wings, as
well in Massachusetts, as in New York
