THE VICTORY HN NEW MAMP-
GnMuEP II

On Tuesday of last week a State cleo
ton was held in New Hampshire, and
the Republicans tanned out the Demo.
Gratis right handsomely. The New
York TriBto,c of the next day had a
series of short editorials upon the sub
ject which were sharp and cutting.
We quote a few of them:
1--WE give elsewhere the result of the contest
in New Hampshire yesterday. Our victory Is
complete and most glorious. Gov Hartman
will have nearly 5000 majority; last year he had
STAG. AT this moment We have no exact returns
Of the result for legislative officers, but the gen.
eral statement is that the Republicans have made
important gains. No gains were needed last
year we had all the Council, of the II Senators,
and majority Of "a In the Lower House. Any
thing more would be supefnuous.
"The New York Democratic leaders fixed their
State Convention for the day after the New
Hampshire election, In the full expectation Of
hayi ing glorious victory to stir their blood and
fill their hearts with joy. Seymour came down
to laugh, and Tweed went up to rejoice, and T.
W. lounged around to pick up crumb Of COM
fort. Until 10 o'clock last night they were wild e
awake and full of hope; at 10I the news came /;
by II O'Clock they had said their prayers, not loud
but deep, and, like the broken-dOwn gambler,
Laid them down in their cherries beds,
And pulled the tombstones over their heads.
"'Victory of the onstitution-Democrats
Triumphant-175 Majorty'-is the Worlds head
Ing OF the election dispatch from Biddeford Me.
That township has long been decidedly Demo
cratic and gave Dokandred and tloeRiy-Hiae Dem
ocratic majority for Governor last Fall. How
the World must shout over the result in New
Hampshire
''The yeomanry of New Hampshire were yes-
terday (untrulv) told that there had been great
Democratic gains the preceding day in the choice
of several constables in Maine. They heard the
Copperheads shout, saw their rockets go up and
explode, and coolly walked to the polls. Have
the Maine toddy-mixers heard anything drop2
rs there an idiot SO flush of money that he
would give 0 shinplaster dime for the Hon.
James Dixons chance of reelection to the Senate
from Connecticut next Summer If there is,
let him, before he invests, get some trusted
friend to read him yesterdays returns from New
Hampshire.
Have confidence in the People, a Copper
head telegraphed to Andy johnson on Monday
eve, because the nti-Prohibtionists had carried
Augusta. Maine, by 68 majority, though it went
3
faith in the People must be strengthened by the
returns from New Hampshire!
'The World was yesterday made happy by ad-
vices that PIKE County, Penn, had gone strongly
Democratic That County never. within our
memory, gave less than three to one for any
ticket labeled De mocratic, and has usually gone
much higher They used TO burn the buildings
OF Republican voters during the War for tie
Union in some parts Of that dark County. Three
Loco-Focos and three jugs of whisky to each
spelling-book used to be the proportion in that
County and it has not yet been materially
changed, 1t must be hard shedding with the
Sham Democracy when they have to shout over
victory In Pike. How cheerful they must be
over the returns from New Hampshirel
Morn breakcth in the East the purple clouds
Are putting on their gold and violet
10 look the meeter for the suns bright coming
SO said the poet happily. He had doubtles
Deen slttlng up all night, awaiting receiving
compiling, arranging and elucdatng the re-
turns OF the last Republican victory in New
Hampshire.
"If you have friend who believes. or would
lain be thought TO believe, that the impeach-
mcnt of Andrew johnson is unpopular, or that
the People have the iaintcst notion Of clectlng
COpperhead President next Fall, Just ask him
what he thinks Of the returns of yesterday cleo
ton in New hampshire
1--WE hear that the Hon. James r. Doolittle
Has determined not to live in Wisconsin any
longer than he must TO enable him to serve out
his present term in tue Senate. lIe was Re
publican for little more than six wears. and
obtained thereby seat IN the Senate for twelve.
As he thinks he must move about to give
chance TO the lightning to strike him again, he
Is open to proposals for new location. There
Is one State in which we viii warrant him not to
settle, aud the name Of that State is New lamp
shire.
Reports from Washington imply that Andy
johnson objects to the vote Of New Hampshire
as clearly null and VOid-therc not being thirty
six States represented In Congress rs there
should be. And besides, he shrcwdly suspects
That several OF the voters had prcJudged tkg
questions ntlssuc. \
