The Reelection of Gov. Seward.

The reelection Of this distinguished man
20 the United States Senate. is an event OF
more than ordinary importance, and is hailed
with feelings of deep satisfaction by the
lovers of freedom throughout the country.
Confesscdly among tho greatest of living
statesmen, his reelection, at the present
time, is something more than the filling Of o
Senatorial seat in the United States Congress.
illuminated and abused, as he has been, his
success is no personal triumph, but tri.
umph of the glorious cause and correct
principles which he has so ably and persist
emily advocated at the Senate board. It is
triumph Of national freedom over Southern
Seclionalism, and IN indignant robuke upon
the efforts and conduct of men, vastly his

board, by assaiIing him, the natal principles
of republican liberty. Most bravcly has

fence of the North from Southern aggression,
and despite the yelping of the Northern
llckspittles, and the bravado of Southern
Hotspurs, has trod tho path of the three

der, which has been hcaped upon him, with
the Indifference of man conscious Of his
power. and content to "nbide his time"
when the correctness Of his course would
DO demonstrated und indicated. Most
heartily do we ninglc our rcjoicings with
those which are felt throughout the entire
North for his return at the Senate board
There is heart in these rejoicings, there is q
renewal Of hope in the event, hope that tho
wave OF Southern aggression may be stayed,
md Southern men be brought to a sense Of
heir constitutional obligations, through
the influence Of fear, il by no other consid-
grafton, when the North speaks out its sen.

ent, from the symptoms" that tho Lesis-

of the grants went for the re-committmen,
in view of appropriating money. 70 day

Another Republican Triumph.

election is another triumph Of the Republi.
can cause. Mr.. Durkce was at one time q
member Of Congress, a representative from
Wisconsin, and while there was always
found voting on the side Of Giddings, Mann,
and other friends Of the North. We think
that the South will sec, in these successful
rriumphs, that tn. North has, at last, been
reached.
STILL ANOTHER.
Hon. Lyman Turnbull has been elected
by the Illinois Legislature Senator in Con.

HENRY WILSON. We intended t.
express, in our last weeks paper, GU,
qualification at the election of this gentle
man to seat in the U. S. Senate. There
arc those who speak hlspuragingIy Of his
talents and ability, and dcnounce him as an
intriguing politician. The, accusations,
which have been made against him, come
from sources which are more or less warped
by the artificial distinctions, which wealth
and family connections create in society. =
With some, to DO without rich connections ,
II not crime, is bar to public preiermcrt.
General Wilson has risen from the rank
and by his own indomitable enegies. The
success OF such man is always distasteful
to moneyed aristocracy. We rejoice ut
the election Of Mr.. Wilson, not so much
because We think him o nin Of great tal.
ent, as We do because of his devotion to
freedom. Everett tailed In backbone, and
has been forgotten. Wilson has an album
dant supply Of tho article, and will turn IL
to good account in the struggles between
freedom and slavery.
