GOOD NEWS, If TRUE-sENATOR
SHIELDS.

A Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald, under date of the 18th instant
says;
"a private dispatch received in this city, re-
ports a singular Democratic triumph in the
Springfield (Illinois) district. 1t appears that,
on Joint ballot, in the Legislature, General
Shields was one vote in the minority. This
gave the opposition the election of a United
States Senator Their choice fell upon Mr..
Lincoln, Wing member of that body. As he
could not very modestly vote for himself, and
as a single Wing vote could not be lost without
the United States Senator, too, Mr.. Lincoln
resigned, to let another Wing be elected in his
place. AS his (tbe Spring6eld) district was
strongly Wing, and as the Democrats were sup
posed to be divided, they ventured to run two
Wing candidates for the vacancy. The result
was the union of the Democracy, the defeat Of
the Wings, and the certain reelection Of Gen.
eral Shields. Mr.. Lincoln may exclaim; 'Alasl
for the uncertainties Of life.' Instead Of reach
ing a seat in the United States Senate, which
seemed within his very grasp, be loses his place
in the State Legislature, and can now retire to
the quiet walks of private life to enjoy his ot'un
cum digaitdfe !"

rag The american Cell, in its annual ad
dress to its readers, speaks in the following
forcible and striking language of the new secret
society:
1t is dreadful thing to engage whole
people, upon oath, to conceal their political de-
signs to swear them to be foresworn, to In
struct them in meeting, moving and acting,
without the pale of the accepted Constitution.
Those who have taught that lesson to this gen
Grafton of Americans have re-revolutionized
the country. The Republic of Washington is
at an end, and the Republic of Baatliae is be-
ginning. To-day it is the secret societies
against the Church; tomorrow, they may un-
dertake to regulate wages, to legislate on prop
erty, to establish secret police and secret tr-
bunals for the summary punishment of all who
denounce or desert them"
1t says, eff they should triumph in the Pres-
Dental election Of 1856, then the Republic
of Washington is at an end, and that of Bant-
line begins. Already they have sorely shaken
three of the pillars of the old Constitution,
freedom of religion, of speech, and Of the press.
They are avowedly confederated against one
religion, against publicity, and to deny the
known truth. Where the majority governs and
the majority conspires, the revolution is COM
plete The work of erasing the letter may be
done at any time; the spirit Of the Consttu-
ton, strangled in secret, has already departed"

now great, that the Southern mail will not be car

so, and if he persists will probably annn the con-

regular transportation, and the department is
severely censured by the press here as vacilla-
