Our VictOrU In alabama.

The following telegram from Mr.. John
Forsyth, the well known editor of the
Mobile Register, to a friend in this city,
was intended to have been read at the
meeting Of the Manhattan Club on last
Thursday evening, but through its mis-
direction reached its destination only |
yesterday morning. Our readers wilt be |
glad to learn from it in an absolutely |
authentic form the extent OF tho victory |
won in Alabama on Tuesday last over
tho common enemy of good government, |
freedom. and true progress in all sections
OF the Union:
"Tell the Manhattan Club that Ala
bama has elected Democratic Govern
or, Supreme Court and State officers.
All these by at least ten thousand major
ity, making gain over the last election
Of eighteen thousand votes. We have
elected six Democratic congressman, and
| in the city and county OF Mobile the whole
l Democratic ticket wins by a majority of
seventeen hundred votes. The Legisla-
ture also is largely Democratic. Our peo-
pie are overjoyed at their deliverance.
JOHN FORSYTH"
