In another page will be found an article
from the New York Tribune on the New Eng
land elections, in which that journal maintains
that the New Hampshire election did not 60
by default, but, on the contrary, that the con
servative vote was brought out to its fullest
extent. The figures by which the Tribune tries
TO prove its case are these:-In 1856 the whole
vote was 1855; in the present year it is nearly
II 800; therefore a full vote was polled at the
last election. Now, these figures prove the
very contrary Of that for which they are pro-
duced. The vote is somewhat less OF this cleo
ton than it was four years ago, whereas, al
lowing for natural increase in population, it
ought to be at least 5000 more. The Tribune
admits that the full vote would count $4,000
A full vote has not, therefore, been polled; the
conservative element has held back, and the
election has gone by default, through the ma
chinations of the Boston Post clique, who de-
sire to see the democracy defeated, in order
that, like the Albany Regency, they may retain
their influence and power in the matter Of
offices and spells. 1t is clear that there
is reserve vote in New Hampshire
which was not called out in the recent contest,
but which will be polled in the great irrepres-
sibe conflict of next November, as it was in
the Presidential struggle Of 1856, and may turn
the scale of victory to the light side.
There is another point which the Tribune dis.
putes in reference to the coming election in
another New England State. 1t says Connec.

it literally is, it does not alter the argument
one iota, nor take away the most powerful
motive that can operate upon Yankee,
who, according to Wendell Phillips,
would jump over hell's open mouth
for dollar at the other side. The jobbing
houses Of New York, from the number of
three hundred 10 five hundred, purchase
Connecticut goods, aud they sell them to
the South. But IL the South will not buv
these goods from New York houses then is
it not plain that the industrial interests
Of Connecticut will be affected by the with
drawal of the Southern trade and in point of
fact do not the Connecticut manufacturers
already feel the loss, and have they not been
