New Kampshire, OK.

FIRM As THE Rocks The majority
f.. IcuABoD GOODWIN. the new Governor
Of New Hampshire, is over Three Thou
sand Five Hundred, or less than the Pres
ilenrlal vote, and with division in our
rauks, in one Congressional District, (which
threatened the loss of Member. Con-
c-ess all Republican, and Council, Senate
aud House By large majorisies.
Never Git is generally stated did the
Democrats Of New Hampshire make such
ctTort.-neyer spend so much time and
money-to carry the State, as last month.
1t was the first election this year, and its
imp0rtance-as a first sign-they well
understood They strained every nerve,
and brought out their most popular men.
They did not run as Buchanan meu that
were hopeless; but they run as Douglas
mca-mcn in favor Of t"popular sovreignty"
-"Democrats" only-not in favor Of Sla-
very, by any manner of means......All in
vain they gained only few hundred
votes, and their defeat is signal, mortify-
ing, and decisive.
Mr.. Goodwin is an Old Line Wing,
and his election in that former staunch
Democratic State proves that the fire of
Liberty has melted off old party prejudices
from the giant of Republicanism.
"Ecyo1ationsn snereryo Jachpards" When
New Hampshire threw off the British
yoke, it was for ever. When, five or six
years ago, she broke her Locofoco bonds,
the spoilsmen said at is only an outburst
of fnaticism she'll soon return to the
Democratic fold" But she is no more
blinded into the support of the Slave
power under any cherished name. Once
emancipated from the despotic chains of
party thralJom, the "hsshpots" Of office
can not enticc her into Egyptian darkness.
As soon think of this Union going back
to mother Brtain-as soon the Lutherans
return to Popery-as free, Republican
New Hampshire again surrender to the
Slave Democracy.
The President and the South against Agriculture.
The Agricultural College Bill which
the South generally voted against, and
which Mr.. Buchanan vetoed, provided
that there should be appropriated to each
State, in the proportion of20,O00 acres to
each Senator and Representative, the in
,erest of which should be sacredly applied
t, the maintainance of agricultural collie
Ces under the control Of each State separ-
ately This grant would have been equal
to 100000 for Pennsylvania. But the
South and Buchanan say no, and when
the South are ou.voted the President steps
in to aid them with his veto.
r0-Among the ultra PrO-slavery mea-
surcs recommended by Pres. Buchanan
and contemptuously passed by in Congress,
was the recommendation to pay the Span
ish pirates, owners Of the slave ship Arm
is,ad, whose slaves won their liberty on
the high seas!
II the pirates, kidnappers and slave
traders 10 the Nation can propose anything
more for Slavery than Buchanan tried to
do, let them suggest it and he will recon-
mend it next year, unless he repehts and
reforms.
tsrJohn Petit, Of Ind, Buehanan's
uew Judge in Kansas, is the man whom
the late Senator Benton denounced as ia
great liar and a dirty dog" We never
saw any objection to Beulons description,
as matter of fact, however offensive it
