THE NEW JERSEY ELECTION.

The newspapers confirm the Telegraphic reports
of the complete triumph of the Democracy of New
Jersey at the election in that State on Tuesday last
RoDMAN M. PRICE is chosen Governor by large
majority, and his political friends will have large
majority in both branches of the Legislature. JOEL
HAYWOOD was the Wing candidate for Governor.
Questions of Temperance and Nativeism were mix
cd up with the election.
TO the Legislature, Camden county has elected
one Native and two Democrats Burlington elects
two Democrats; Essex elects five Democrats and
four Wings; Mercer elects three Democrats to
the House and one to the Senate; Hudson elects
one Democrat to the Senate and two Democrats and
one Wing to the House. From this it will be seen
that the Liquor Law" has used up the Wing
party in New Jersey. They will scarcely have a
respectable show in the Legislature. Mr.. PRICES
majority for Governor is five or six thousand.

Wings in the Senate consider it imperative upon
them 10 do SO, even though the chances of electing
Senator are against them.
The message of the new Governor is remarka-
bly, well written document, but deals mostly with
general principles. 1t takes strong ground against
the Maine law, saying that
The truth cannot be dssembed that the present law
has proved Intellectual and inadequate to restrain the

Legislature in part of the law dves it Of the
character OF property and in another recognise it
SUCH and tolerate its sale in place in each town for
medicinal and mechanical purposes, should inspire
with dstrus of any enduring reformation founded solely
upon municipal law. IT. however, such laws should

State from the vice of ntemperance will also maintain the
rights of citizens against infringement and their
dwellings from wanton and malicious intrusion"
