lEWIS CASS

In The midst of our recent glorious successes
there has been one defeat that is great national
loss. The success of the black repnblicans in
electine an abolition Legislature for Michigan &C.
complfshes one of the desrest wishes Of their
psrty-the removal of LEWIS CAss from the Senate
of the United States and the substitution of some
one of their sectional fanatics.
One by one the patriotic statesmen of the north,
who loved honor and their country better than the
trapings and emoluments of Office, have been dis
placed by the mad ambition aud foul schemes Of
reckless fanatics. The accomplished ToUcEY, the
gallant DoDeE, the heroic SHrELDs have been crush
ed out between the upper and the neither nilstones
of black republicsnism and northern know nothing
ism. As wise and patriotic IS were these illus.
trious statesmen, the country could better spare
them all than the old Senator of Michigan whose
clarion voice has such charm upon thu national
ear, echoing back through the dim past when giants
stood in the council chambers of the nation, and
the mighty eloquence of CALHOUN, CLAY and
WEBSTER rang like warrior steel ia defence Of con-
stitutonal liberty. Starting into active life almost
with the rise Of our institutions-a pioneer in the
warrior in battle-s statesman in peace-s wise
diplomatist at foreign courts-a link between a
generation that has gone and the one upon the
| threshold--mellowed with age, but young and
vigorous in temperament-a christian and scholar
he stands to-day the noblest living specimen Of
American democracy and American statesm anship.
| The defender of the constitution and the sdvo.
cate of democratic principles, be has been per
sequence the friend of the south. The measure Of
his greatness is full. They may Fill with Lllipu.
tisn bgot the seat which he has SO long honored
in the Senate, but he holds place in the hearts
of the great body of the American people that they
can never enter and niche in the lofty temple o
human fame to which they can never aspire. The
loss is not bis but his countrys.
May his sitting sun of life be as soft and efful
gent in its close as it was clear and brilliant at the
noon of day.

THE FOREIGN VOTE.

The New Y ork Evening Mirror, Fremont pa
per, says:
The foreign vote has beaten Us in Indiana and
Pennsylvania which held the balances of po-'ss
hut the popular OF che North was over
wbelmingly for Freedom and Fremont"
The Louisville Journal declares that
&Every Irishmsn, German, or other foreigner,
who could be found and pressed into the Sag
NIGHT service in Indians, on the 4th instant was
induced to go to the polls in that State"
Here are the positive declarations that the for
eign vote has beaten Fremont aud elected Blu.

This may be bitter pill for the northern abo-
litionists to swallow; but it is strange to see south
ern men complain about it.

TIE NEW YORK TRIBUNE ON THE RESULT OF
THE ELECTION

THE ELECTION.
The leading organ of black republcanism an
nounced the result of the election, in its issue of
last Wednesday, in an article commencing as fol-.
lows:
We have lost battle. The Bunker Hill of the
new struggle for Freedom is past; the Saratoga
and Yorktown are yet to be achieved. A party of
yesterday, without organization, without official
power, without prestige and lstterly almost with
out hope has not overborne the Oldest party in the
country, with its hundred thousand ofics-holders,
its eighty millions of annual expenditure, its mil
lion and half of voters trained by the habits of
lifetime to vote without question or hesitation
whatever bears its label. The republican party,
called into being by the Nebrasks lniquty of 1854
having substantive existence in butsMteen States,
has beaten one of the rival parties which boast of
their compact organization in all the States, but
has failed to beat the other in its first Presidential
canvass, James Buchanan is our next President,
and John @. Breckenridge Vice President, and the
free State men of Kansasare temporarily delivered
over to the tender merces of the Border Ruffians,
tempered by the colder but not less fatal craft OF
The Federal patrons of those Rufisns, who have
Just aided in securing to those patrons another four
years lease of power.
Practically, the verdict of yesterday has enslsv-
ed Kansas, and made it treason and rebellion for
her devoted inhabitants to struggle longer to avert
that destiny. Practically, the brutal rufisns who
yesterday at most of the polls Throughout the Free
States jeered at 'bleeding Ksnsas"-thus making
sport OF robbery, arson, rape, and murd sr-hav Q
been Endorsed aud commended by the vote of their
fellow-ctizens. Practically, the American People
have reversed the policy of Slavery Restriction
inaugursted by our Revolutionary patriots, and
decided that Liberty and Slavery are equal in
merit and equally accordant with the genus Of
democracy. Practically, tie Slave Power has been
hidden to take possession OF the Federal Govern
ment, and ride rough-shod over all who manifest
opposition to its pleasure or repugnsncs to its
SWAY.
