H@-THE CREED OF THE PARTIEs-The differ. ence in the creed of the various political parties relates mainly to the question of slavery, and the following we believe to be concise and fair statement of their positions.
 THE DENocRATs
 That portion of the democratic party known as administration Democrats" believe that un- der the Dred Scott decision of the United States Supreme Court, slavery exists as national insti- tuition in the territories that the constitution guarantees and protects it; and that neither Congress nor the inhabitants of territory, have the right to prohibit slavery in a territory.
 The "Anti-Lecompton Democrats" of whom Senator Douglas is the leader, believe that Con gress has no right to prohibit slavery in the ter ritories but that the people of territory have the right to establish or abolish it as they please.
 THE REPCBLICASS
 hold that Congress has supreme authority in the territories, and can and ought to prohibit sla- very there while they recognize the right of evey State to establish or abolish slavery as its people shall decide, end avow their determina- oon nos to interfere with slavery in the States where IL exists. Their doctrine, that slavery is secqoaal, not national That is, that the con- shtuton leaves t to the States to settle each TOT ltsel, but that it does not establish or carry u mo the territories; and that under the con- ss9.ion' It can only exist by positire State leg

@A-Our Democratic friends naturally feel great deal sore at the result of the election in the State. The falling off on the Republican State Ticket in the cities hardly affords a bal ance for the immense Republican gains in the country towns, and the enormous increase of the Republican majorities in the Legislature

pG- Dr. Lighthill, the eye and ear doctor, from New York, requests us to state that his time will not permit him to visit Ltchfeld for the present, but that he will be in Waterbury until April l4th.

~ Notes,, on the Election.

The voters of Ltchfeld were more than pleased with the election of their favorite candi- date for Sheriff, Mir. LEvERETT w. VESSELS. In this town and most others he ran ahead of his ticket. When the returns from the whole county had been received at our office at o'clock Tues day morning, the quiet air rang with wild enthusi- astic shouts. Mr. Vessels was called from his bed by the enthusiastic multitude, that visited him, and was treated to nine as rousing cheers, as ever & successful candidate for President heard under his window!
 We inquired affectionately last week with regard to the future welfare of the distinguished Democratic candidate for Judge of Probate. That enquiry we learn, was made the evening of election, and reiterated grievously Oh, where y cried the sympathetic mourners at the St. Jul lien.

And so mindful respect fully of that thirty yeight majority, We are more We should like to call the attention of cur Republican friends to the pitiful support of a certain county Journal, given to Judge Good win in this canvass.

a long and intimate acquaintance vi,h
the population, soil and climate of Wes,-
ern Virginia enables us to speak of it with
perfect certainty, and we say that we can
commend 1t most earnestly to the vo;,up
men OF New England who desire IN Iiie
oy the cultivation OF the soil.
Except upon the banks uf streams The
land Is generally billy, some OF Il too
mountainous for cultivation; In, ;.ll ~.
mountains are filled with coal and jrnn
which are beginning to be worked. ana
Ill tsw years will be worked to such an
extent us to demand nenrly all the surplus
products OF the soil for the CONSUMPTION
OF those employed.
!ne climate is perfectly healthy, there
oeihg no prevailing disease Fever and

troubles the population. There are occa-
sion'l taIls OF snow in. ;he winter, but it
rareiy remains more than day or two.
Neither cattle or sheep need housing hn1
Tor few weeks in tue year. The sum

the hot days in New EngInud. The soil
Oh tne bottoms is rich, light, sandy toam
ana that OF the hills is very similar. ex-
cept hrmer and harder. Unlike almost all
oIner iNnd we have ever known, the tons
OF tue highest hills where at all accessible
are fertile and produce the best of wheat
ior successive years There are no rocks
TO obstruct cultivation, the rocks cons,i-
tntlng an under stratum of sand and lime
stone. The timber is oak, hickory and
chesnut, generally growing large and
lu%urlnnt, while the roots penetrate the
ground much deeper than in the thin soils
OF tue north, and form no obstruction to
deep ploughing.
Wheat, corn, grass, potatoes and all the
common crops do well. The hills and eli
mate are peculiarly favorable for sheep,
ana Tor the cultivation of the Crane, which
has proved a most profitable crop.
