Even in old JBlue Light Massachusetts, 'the very hot
bed of Federal Aristocracy, that gave General Harrison
more‘than twenty thousand, and Governor up

have made a close run S?f it with their opponents,'and

elected Mr. Baimit, their candidate.for Governor, by
five or.six thousand majority, a large majority of the
Semite, mid probably every, member of the House of

The above-mentioned results, taken in connexion
with those of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Now
York, New -Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland,
Georgia, Alabama, Indiana, Illinois, and Tennessee,
allow a tremendous—air overwhelming revolution', such
as has never before been, witnessed in this country,
and mubt .carry tenor Pipe Layers in Congress
who so outrageously dimmed the confidence of the peo
ple, during tho extra session. It is also a dreadful re
buke to the leaders of Federalism throughput the Union,
for the infamous game pf deception they practiced upon
the people to get themselves invested with power, It
is a trite, but true remark, that the Federal party never
got into power but to abuse it-—and the history of the
last eight months is An abundant verification of the
fact. It is equally true, that the people never entrust
them with power more than one term at a.time, and
the elections which, have been held since the meeting
of Congress demonstrate the assertion as clear us holy,
writ. Tho people, the great mass of whom arc honest
iimy.be deceived for a time by treacherous, .designing
demagogues, wh /c pockets arc their household gods,
and whose principles nra measured by dollars and
cents, but they cannot long remain deceived. - They
may, once in forty years, be blinded by hellish and
malignant misrepresentations, knd earned away with a
wild and ungovernable enthusiasm—but the “sober
second thought” will speedily follow, and their Just
vengeance is heaped-on the heads of their betrayers.—
So has it been, heretofore—so is it now—and so will it
be in all time to corned

indeed, it would appear that tile mighty ball of victory

the whole twenty-six sovr.rcigntics should have ranged
themselves under die Republican'standard. Such will,
in all human-probability, bo tho case, unless tho pres

policy.
To the vast body of uncorrupted and incorruptible
Democratic Freemen throughout the Union, who so
nobly stood by their patriotic President, Martini Van
Buren, the result of tho rccent elections must be souL
cheering in the They waged tho contest on
open and honorable grounds, against the foulest corrup
ruptiuus and vilest misrepresentations ever before at
tempted in the history of this Republic. They fought
tho great battle of principle, determined to do their
duty regardless of consequences—and, although cfcfeat
.ctl, they bad the proud consolation to know that they
fell with their faces to tho enemy. -They seemed, to
'have adopted the advice of the Spartan mother to her
son, upon his going to the field of battle, “Return with
your shield or on it.” To these noble spirits the Do
mocralic'.triuinphs of the present season oro doublv in
teresting, in.the reflection that multitudes of their fcl
lov/dtlzcns now acknowledge the justice and righteous
ness'of their cause, and are found helping thorn to
swell the great Democratic triumph.

its origin Federal party, and was carried to
great perfection during tho las} Presidential campaign.
Our neighbor havitlg been tho organ of that party du

dj'The Whig pajHire are publishing a ridiculous
story that General Harrison came to his death by poi
son. What they expect to gain by giving publicity to
such a silly and incredible assertion we are at a loss to
divine, unless they want to furnish their old -women
readers with a subject to talk about for a month to
come. ' Certainly no sensible man will believe one
word of the story, and our only marvel is that these
Whig editors art such consummate fools ns to attempt
such a hoar Tat this late day. If the old-man was
poisoned, how does it happen that his physicians, cele
brated men in their profession, did not detect ill And
why is it, that such an important occurrence as the
poisoning of a President, would only ho-found out
months after it happened! And still more strange,
that tho circumstance would first become known to on

the rounds of tlio Fcdcral press,.first made its appear

The whole story is so absurd as to' scarcely need

as the results had transpired. ,Not a vestige of a coon

We have now returns from 296 towns, in which the
results is as follows:—Mdrton, 60,108; K Davis, 64,522}
Boltwood and' scattering, 3,394; -Davis’s majority, 1,-

voted lost year as follows^Morton, 1,245; Davis, 1,-
92.4rjnajoriQr.-for- Davis, 659. Davis’s majority in-the
Suae this year will hardly reach 1,600. His majority
in this city is l,COp, and in the rcst of the State he is
~in a minority/ ' ijast
and Harrison’s majorityrwas 21,000! Any. of.our
whig friends who are g6od at cyphering may amuse
themselves by calculating, the, dillercncc.
The democrats have made large gains in both branch
es of the Legislature. They have elected their Sena-;
tonal candidates in Middlesex, Bristol, Berkshire, arid
Hampden counties, and in 'Plymouth county there is
no choice/ " In' Norfolk county/Appleton Howo (who
was on both tho whig and abolition tickets) is tho only
Senator chosen. The whigs have elected their candi
dates in Sulfolk, Essex, Worcester, Hampsliire, Prank
din, Barnstable, and Dukes and Nantucket ‘ The Sen
ate,.after all vacancies arc'filled, will probably be com
posed of 13 democrats and 27 whigs; whig majority,
14. In the last Senate tho whig majority was 37 !
There .will be a, strong ;jfvhig majority in the House,
although tlie democrats have gained. many members in
that branch. In a day‘nr twoy when we get returns
from all the towns, wo shall publish a complete list of
the members chosen. We think it useless to occupy
our columns with on imperfect list

encouraging to tho democratic party. It proves that
they are rapidly the
