~ The decided victory achieved by the De
mocracy of the Nutmeg State" at the late
election held for State officers, may he called
the "silver lining TO the cloud" which has so
long darkened the prospects of our party.
1t clearly evidences that the corruptions of
Radicalism have at last opened the eyes of the
people of North to the perilous condition
of the country, and that it is now tim for
every patriot to assist in turning back the
flood which threatens to overwhelm and des-
troy every veslige of constitutional liberty.
Mr. Ingersoll, the Governor elect, is a Dem
