THE HAPPY MAN,

Asaln Is Johnson's knocker muted,
Warning postman, milkman, tramp:
nce more hath he been saluted
BY that dear old Sarey Camp,
At his window chirp the sparrows,
Johnson happiest of Men
With MS QuIver full of arrows,
The tallest rising two foot ten.
AT his Club now psnsive dining,
Johnson views his ways and means,
Home tranquility reslgnlng
Until Jane the Cherub weans.
In due time the midnight chamber
With HIS little charge he'll pace;
\ meersohaum may be tipp'd with amber
Pointing from his quiet lace,
Visions TO his mind ara rising,
Long A 20 heoary's bills
French and musIc-filenas surprising
SoJks and boots and tiny frilis.
For relief OF beings tender,
One horse now must serve for two:
COL, stIck-that he must surrender:
Notwithstanding escnew.
Ye who jest at loves intrusions.
Listen gravely, If youcan;
mock not JohnsOn's sweet illusions,
WOndrous are the Joys of Man.

THE LATE ELECTION IN ILLINOIS.
sponaroca of The N. Y. Tribune.

Correspondence of The NJ Y. Tribune
ROCK ISLAND, ILL.,, Nov. 10, 1859.
Some of the Republican newspapers in this State
wish TO attribute the triumph of Douglas, in the
recent election to the course pursued by part OF
the Eastern press but the party in Illinois find the
reasons for il nearer home. 1t was apparent from
the beginning that the large ma orties in our favor,
in Northern Illinois, and the large mnjories against
us in Eeypt would not affect the result, but that
the contest would be decided in few doubtful dis
trcts where the vote in 80 was so very close as 10
give no indication of the result In these districts,
our organization was imperfect, and, strange as II
may seem, comparatively little work was done.
Here was n large American element, which It has
been plain would decide the battle. These men,
ho voted for Fillmore in sc, had no party ties 10
bind them anywhere, had particular objection TO
the Extension of Slavery, and did not care
whether il was voted up or voted down." but they
generally voted the Douglas ticket, for no other
earthly reason than that they wished to rebuke the
corrupt Administration. The Republicans are
strong in the consciousness of having twice IN sue
cession elected their State ticket by good msjori.
ties, and in the belief that some time State will
be so divided into districts that, when We have u
large majority of the People, We may possibly also
have a small majority in the Legislature, and that
at no election hereafter will the Nationals 60
about and make friends for our opponents BY
abusing them.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN has fully equaed the eS-
pectstions of his most partial friends; in no IN
stance has he varied one hair from the orthodox
Republican doctrine. and to-day be is nearer the
hearts OF the people than any other man III the
State.
In Stephen A. Douglas, the Republicans Of Hi
nois have no confidence, and never can have in any
pledge be may make, public or private: they know
his capacity for evil aud his prcchyities III that
direction. BROWN.
New-York daily tribune., 1858-11-15

The Republican City Convention on Friday night
nominated Mr.. ROBERT T. HAws, merchant
of eminent character and capacity, for the import
ant Office Of Controller. We had hoped that some
arrangement might be made for combining all the
opponents of Tammany Hall aud the present Ad
ministraton upon some unexceptlonsble candidate;
and for that reason regret that the Republican
Convention should have acted alone in the matter.
But one thing is certain: no Convention could
have presented candidate better qualified. either
in point of personal character or of ability, to fill
the Office His election would te source of great
benefit to the city.
