a Canadian schooner water-logged and her

For the first time n the history of Wis
coAsiR, the Republicans have carried their
State ticket by handsome majorities. -Four
years ago We elected. our Governor 10y l24
majority; bat lost all the rest of the State
officers. Two years ago, we elected the
Governor by ll8 majority, and the Treas
urer and State Prison Commissioner by
rather more; but lost the other five candid
ates on our State ticket Now, however,
we have carried our whole ticket by an av-
eFOge majority of three thousand or more,
and have secured majorities in 10th branch

State of New Jersey clearly indicate that the
Republican candidate for Governor is chosen
by about 1000 majority. This result says
the Utica Herald, leaves the Pro-Slavery De
mocracy with but single Northern State

New Y ork, a New Jersey, have nobly responded
to the greetings of their sister States who vO-
ted in October. The political year of 1859 has
closed. Every Free State save one has record
ed an emphatic verdict for the Republican
cause. We therefore enter upon the Presiden-

great heart of the people is right. We APP

ened and zeal inspired by glorious preface to
the future history Of our country.
