THE ELECTION.

friends of the several candidates. The ON
ces which most engaged public attention
were the Representative and the Associate
Judges. For both of these the spirit mani
tested was about equal 10 that shown IN any
campaign of which we have recollection
and The result shows hard labor and close
Jy contested vote, especially on the Repre-
sentative question. The indications all are
that Westbrook, the Union candidate, has
beaten Rowland, the choice of the secession
Democracy, by small majority. If this
proves to be the case it will be glorious re-
suit for a most righteous cause. 1t Will
prove the fact, for all future time, that the
Banner County of Patent Democracy
"rallant Monroe" as the wire pullers are
want TO call her when they need the aid OF
her voters-is not impregnuble against the
assaults of truth and justice; and that her
people know how and mean to do right, and
will do right whenever those whom they have
trusted turn traitors, and try TO betray her
character for fairness towards her sister coun-
ties, and her love for the Union. Should
Rowland, however, be elected, and we see
nothing in the returns to indicate result
so much TO be deplored, the pet snake of the
dictators, if not killed will be most horribly
sco,ched--so bad, indeed, that much of the
overbearing spirit which has hitherto been
part of their tactics, will depart from them
forever. In either event the result will be
a victory, because in either e vent the leaders
will be taught TO pay fraction of respect TO
the wishes of the people. On trust as to
what will be the result We are perfectly will
ling to throw up our hat and give nine hear
~ cheers and tiger for gallant Monroe"
and "litlIe Pike" in particular, and fpr the
rattIe-snake District in general. But to the
result. AS far as heard from the figures are
