Mix. CA,N, in reply to q brief para

his peculiar course in The recent mnnl-
cipal election, boasts of having been
born free, and Of doing his own think

matter Of pleasant reflection, that he
once enjoyed IN hour Of vrtuous free
dom, although that was even at the time
Of his BIRTH, when the pure light ofhcar-
en- threw It's first radiance On his cbon
brow, and when no fell remorsc was
gnawing IN anguish at his heart. Then hc
had not bascly sold hi,Iisclfand lis birth

political opinions and influence has moth
inc left worthy OF the human form he is
more 4 slave, hawkcd about in the politi-
Gel market tllan he whose body only is
sold, while his soul is free and his con
science pure.
Mr. Gain has often boastcd that lie
docs his own thinking. This we think no

r.. New Hampshire Election.

The New Hampshire election for Gov
erpor aud other State officers occurs to-
J,v The canvass has been very ex-
citing one, both parties having dis
nIayed the greatest energy in its man
ac4ment. The best political speakers
in the country have been laboring upon
the stump, meetings have been held in
every locality, documents have been
used with lavish profession, and every
influence that could enable voters to
act intelligently has been brought to
bear
The general impression seems to be
that the election will be exceedingly
close. Both parties claim the Stats :,
hut il is clear that neither side is very
confident. 1t is conceded on all hands
that the Democrats have made large
iuroads upon the ranks of their Op-
moments, but the Republicans claim to
be able to repair their losses by the lib
sral nse of money. 1t is not, to be
d,ubted that in their stock OF this sort
of munition and in their Willingness to
use il, they have largely the
advantage of the Democrats. The
patronage of the State is all in
their hands. The Federal patronage is
also controlled by them almost entirely.
The ofiice-holders at Washington aud
elsewhere have bled freely for their
benefit. aud whatever bribery and cor
ruption could do for them has doubtless
been done.
The Radical majority in New Hamp-
shire hitherto has ranged from three to
five thousand. Last year it was some
thing ev,r three thousand. We have
little doubt that this majority will be
greatly reduced if not entirely over
come. Should the Democrats be Sue
ce,sful in carrying tue State, in spite
Of the improper advantages which their
opponents possess over them, it will be
the pruuaest triumph of the times. And
should the Radicals fail To carIy the
State by their usual majority, it will be
equivalent TO defeat for them, and none
know this better than themselves.
Hence it is that they have made the
name of GRANT their rallying cry, hop
Ing thereby at least to retain their usu-
al majority. The resnlt, which we pre-
sume will be reached tonight, will be
awaited with unusual interest.
