doomed TO have dismal days for elections
whether they held early late. II hoped that,
as we had put the DAY forward almost week, might
have fair time for the work Of patriotism and party,
and politics; but disappointed. The day
raw and dismal and in far type Of what to
be the feelings OF certain gentlemen before the hour Of
cmk In this pect 1t resembed almost all Of our
election days. which have frowned upon voters. Some
have been fair but the very fact that one can charge
memory with the air days shows that they must
have been, that account. remarkable.
The result something more than suspect has been
productive of disappointment to many worthy people
who had mace their calculations upon something very
different occarring but Massachusetts, has been great
disapponter of hopes of political character for some
years back winess the wings and the aboltionists
Gov. Gardeners plurality has excited much surpise-eveu
those of his supporters who thought he would get over
$4,000, not thinking that Mr.. Rockwes vote would be
no small. 1t was very to fall in with man who
thought that the republican vote could be less than
10000, and almost all put him down several thousand
higher than that but the voters In another sense put
him down at much lower figure The result must con
vince all that the strength of certain sentiments been
much moderated here. Opposition to foreigners

Gov GardLer at rs GOO last year. and have in his
sent vote not far from the actual strength Of the native
party. How long that party be kept together it
would be easy thing say but it wi probably last
for some time. 1t is supposed that effect of the VIC
tory will be to revive the Know Nothing party in the
naton-that is say il will be the Ct putting the
slavery question into inferior position and 80 enable
the of the free States to cooperate with those
slave Sta in the residential election. If Mas.
sashusetts shall ignore the slavery question what other
State be relied upon to place it first in the list of
subjects to into the next national programmed
Whs ever else has been decided by the contest look
upon the decision being against the anslsvery party.

Rockwels defeat might be certain. This may or may
not be true but it has plausible look from the small
of Mr. Valleys vote.
