MIchiean Election.

The returns from the elections held yester-
day throughout the State are so meagre, thstit
is impossible TO place any estimate upon the
result. So far as heard from, however, the
Democracy have done msgnI6cently. They
have carried hye-sixths of the larger towns, and
many Of those that have hitherto been Repub
lican. No general officers were elected Detroit

~snat the passage Of this bill and
~~uendnents may have that effect, think
1t will. think that will he the practical
effect Of the policy proposed. The bill pro-
v,des for the liberation of all those that shall
have been employed in the armed service
Of the United States, with their wives and
children, and do not doubt that it will lay
the foundation for the liberation, sooner or
later, Of the mass of the colored population
Of the rebel districts, and ultimately of the
whole country. This does not alarm me-
A careful examination Of the whole subject,
including candid analysis of the arguments
Of directors, my own observation, and the
observations of others of the highest inteli
gence, illustrated by the history and cxpe-
rience Of other nations, convinces me that
this policy will not involve us in the slight
est darger. know other Senators have
expressed great fear. But do not think
they have examined the subject with suffi-
cicnt care The Senator from Kentucky
tMr. Davis has been very earnest in urging
the greatest forbearance. 1t is manifest to
all acquainted with his candoi that he enter
tains the most serious apprehensions. He
has repeatedly cautioned the Senate against
policy that he evidently fears might cause
n REPETITION of the bloody scenes of st. Do
mingo But a careful examination of that
case will prove that it is always more dan
gerous to do wrong than to act justly. 1t is
hardly necessary for me to inform the Sena.
tor that the French Deputies had provid' d
by law for the freedom OF all the slaves OH
the island; but their masters resisted the de-
cree, and attempted by force to continue
their bondage contrary to law. Smarting
Under this fragrant injustice, the slaves un-
derto TX the vindication of their own rights
under the laws of France; and in their re-
dress Of this grievance they did commit some
acts Of barbarity. They did it, however, in
defense of their legal rights. BY law they
were free. Their masters attempted the
folly Of continuing their bondage in violation
of law, and they suffered fearful penalty
But, sir, were these negroes singular in this
Did they not in this act very much like
white people? You, sir, would have acted
substantially as they did; so would the Sem
ator from Kentucky himself. All men love
liberty. Slavery is sufficiently CALLING when
sanctioned by the law Of the land but should
you attempt to impose on any one chains
contrary to law, could you expect him to
submit to the outrage? You would not,
Mr. President, nor would T, nor would the
Senator from Kentucky. Under these cir
cumstances very few would have hesitated
to strike for their liberty. Had it been done
by white men it would have received the
praise Of mankind. 1t was this persistence
in a gigantic wrong by the shareholders, in
violation of the law of the land, that ench-
ed St. Domingo in blood.
