The eleetioil LENIUEL Tope, the
Independent mimic candidate, is a
magnificent triumph . , ; over which the
friends of sound prineixles may well re
joict man of acknowledged ability
and eloquence, he will take high personal
rank tunong the &Anent MCI% of the day
and reflect credit upon his constituency.
As a mcniber of Congress we may look
forward with confidence to his political
course. He will not be found among the
cringing adherents oNhe corrupt admin
istration of Franklin Pierce. He will at
all tittles, by his voice and his vote, op
pose the extension of Slavery over terri
tory now free. He will stand nobly up
for the ,protection of. American Nindustry
and will contend :with unyielding firm
ness for the only cafe American 1)011'4 , of
watching jealously cur free institutions,
and confining the rule of our

Anti Nebraska Democrats will rally a for-'

conspicuous in their ranks will be our tal

COATGRATBLATIONS FROM ABROAD
The defeat of J. Ellis Bonham, the
wholesale caltunniator of the AWhigs in
his series of voluminous addresges as
chairno of the Locofoco State Commit
tee, seems to afford the Most
factiott ro our friends iii other distriets.- , L
The. defeat of Bonham is the fihishing
stroke of the great triumph; and is a re
sult which will be fret at Washington.—
Although we have no disposition to exult
ewer a_ fallen foe, we must say that no
man more richly deserve defeat than
Bonham. Not satisfied with the vile
calumnies heaped Upon the Whigs in his
verbose addresses, his labored eulogies
and fulsome flattery of foreigners in his
public speeches during the canvass were
if any thing still more disgusting and out
rageous. But by this course he himself
was the greatest sufferer. ,So grossly did
lie outrage public opinion at every public
meeting he attended in both Cumberland
and Perry counties, by his offensive dis
paragement of American, citizens, that his
insulted auditors could not restrain their
expressions of indignation. To none
more than . himself, in fact, do we wife the
thorough rousing of that deep American
feeling, which by the Voice, of its om
,nipotent will has swept him and his co
_l:iboreis.iiito politicaLobliVictu._
throw is one to be remembered h
cal demagogues forever
From among many notices of
umph of 31r. Todd by the' press in other
counties, we take the following froin the
Itarri - ,burg Ttlegrfiph ;
— CIiMISERLA ND CONORESSIONAL DIS
TRICT.—The friends of Republicism and
Freedoth have gloriously triumphed in
this district. Bonham; the man who "de
fied the boasted power of the Know Noth
ings, and appealedfroin their secret coun
cils, traitorous machinations :end blasphe
mous oaths, to the masses of the people,"
has been overwhemingly defeated. TODD,
the American candidate, carries Cumber
land by one thousand and Perry by over
nine hundred, and is elected. A thous
and cheerg for the true-hearted sons of
"old Mother Cumberland" and her daugh
ter Perry. What a signal rebuke to the
National and State Administrations, and
what an emphatic
,con4emnation of the
demagogue who basely truckled to foreign
Burnish influence.
GALLANT LITTLE PERRY!
Among the astonishing results of Tues
day's contest, is the majority. of 7.09 for
Pollock, and of 888 for Todd, in Perry
county ! That is the. wonder among won
ders I The Bloomfield People's
a bold and efficient advocate of the elec
tion of Todd, rejoices in enthusiastic
strains over the result. We take the fol
lowing pithy notices from the last AI
e«te :
The defeat of Bigler in this County is
unprecedented, & the majority of 800 for
Pollock
,will astWild every citizen of this
Commonwealth. Yet it is easily account
ed for. The old line Democrats have so
long tyranized over the masses, that in
breaking through they have carried their
excess of joy beyond all bounds. The
Perry county ./.kviorrat and the speeches
made by Bonham and his batch of rum
sucking orators, who devoted themselves
, to the abuse of the bone and sinew ()Nile
democrkic party hi the county, drove.
them to the support of Pollock.
We, doubt very much whether Mr.
Bonham was a candidate for Congress on
- last Tucsday--lle—run- -very- slow- as-fat
as heard from. There was about 12000
tickets printed with his name on in this
county, but there was 11990 not needed
-and-only-HlOOO-loutid.theit way into the_
bollot box. : Some of these we were in
formed before the election were to be Clay
Whigs. •

sion on Wednesday night lust, and act ompa
ilia by the tiarrison Baud, marched to Mr.
Todd's resilience on Main street. The Band
then played several appropriate airs, after
which loud `cries were made for Mr. Tudd.►
He appeared in compliance with the call anti
deliVered a short, but eloquent and" stirring
address, which elicited enthusiastic applause.
After duly ackuowlediug the distinguished
mark of popular friendship and confidence
evinced hy his triumphant election to Con
gress, he proceeded to touch briefly on seve
ral topics connected with the canvass. The
Nebraska bill, with its wanton violation of a
sacred compact betweelitle North and South
—the mischievous schemes of Slavery ex
tension, so openly proclaimed in the last ses
sion, and which threaten, if sucee'sJful, to es-
tabliSh the blighting curse of slaNlcry on the
vast expanse of our yet free territory—were
denounced in unmeasured terms, which left
no doubt of the speaker's feelings or opinions
on these subjects. Of that other great prin
ciple, dear to every AMerican heart,—the
right of mericans./0 rule America—he de
sired to say that he was with them heart and
soul ! As the speaker dwelt with fervid_ elo
quence upon the triumph, the principles and
the aims of the American party in the recent
contest, the enthusiasm of his audience was
excited to the highest pitch, and they gave
vent to their feelings by elteer tiller (icer of,„ ,
applause: At the conclusion of Mr. Team
speech three times three !rheers were given
for each of the gallant counties. of Perry,
York and Cumberland, and: thi:Wfor JAMa
PoLLOCK, next Governor of Pennsylvania.—
The procession next marched to the residence
of Prof. O. H. TIFF.OO% After 4 serenade
by the Rand, Prof. Tiffany was called out
by the crowd and responded in an eloquent
speech, which was rapturously applauded.--
The procession next marched to the residence
of the Rev. Mr. ltxEst; on Pomfret street,
...Where there elis again music and a SpeetfC,
from Mr. Reese, who exhorted •their to go
forward in the support of American princi
ples, in the full confidence of a permanent
triumph. The procession soon after quietly .
dispersed, the whole proceedings having been
conducted in an orderly manner.
