three thousan l than was given for Gov

indicate a progress in pubic opinion, cer

fellow-citizens here regard him.
rpm t 4, reibune, :Nov. 4th
This victory just Won by the Republi
isms of our State is one of tylliolt we can
pap feel proud. We ought to have tri
umphed by Fifty Thousand Majority, and
might have dune so but for culpable mis
leading. The State is hostife to the Fed
eral Administration by at least One Hon
fired Thousand Majority, and the Repub
lican party is the nucleus and natural
head of that majority. Had our late
State Convention at Syracuse been wise
ly aotinseled and led, we should have tri
gtaphed by at least Fifty Thousand Ma
jority. To this end, it was not necessary
to appoint Conference Committees, enter
upon difficult negotiations, nor halve tick
ets. What should have been done Was
PO; 1, fluid our Convention some
Weeks earlier than we did—before kinv
other party was in the field; 2. In that
Convention, take ground in favor 4 1 .)f a
Registry L aw, and of every necessary :)re
litutlon against party Naturalizations and
against every facility forfmuduleot Vot- ;
ing; 3. Nominate for -Lieutenant-sovl
entor some able and popular anti-Leccimp
ton American. like James 0. Putnam,
witiliPi;ts present Americap State,Prison
ihtli)ectof, or another good man of like
political antecedents; 4. Decide-to nonii
sate anti-tecomt m Americans fOr
Fen in three or four of the Districts
pat:ailing phe mot American voters and
so with regard to the Legislaturei This
done, let all other parties hold their 'eon.
Fantions when they would find n4mitiate
whom they pleased. Had the Americana
tylminated other State candidates than
hose thus presented by the Itepu,bliCans,
wedo not believe they could have polled i
twenty thousand votes for them n the
ptate.
Instead of this, our State Convention
wail kept back to within eight weeks of
Itleetion,—it was said, to give oppor-
Pisity fir formal conference Utereat with

The Illinois Election.
The filleCC.Ss of Douglas: the
Illinois
elections is Made -oertain* - by the intelli
gence Of this' Mordiag. He goes back to
WaShington sure of another term in the
United : States Senate. goes back as
the conqueror, to look down upod
Buchanan and his friends.as the conquer
ed party; goes back with triumph . in •his
eye, to Meet brows lowering with disap
,PointMent and displeasure. perhaps with
tito.ea;, desire fur vengeance. rill hat
Mr. BUchauan has been laboriug fur since
he had,the news of his election in 184
I —the greatobject of his hopes7--theob
ject, for which he sacrificed the good will,
of many among his original friends, his
title to his ti,ivu esteem, and the fair place
he Might have occupied in his- country's
history—is at once placed bcyoud his!
reach by the result of the. IllinoiS elcc-j
I lions. ! lie cannot be the next candidate!
!of his. party fur the Presidency. The!
party whichl now holds the :o ces of 'the
• !
federal government, and desires to keep
them,! will' not set up . a man who is beaten
",4efortt the co ittest is begun: They fight
win, not to lose ; and- will. rally round
one who crams froth a recent' battle-field
bringing:with him the trophies of a great
victory. !.
We may expect, therefore, to see a
Douglas! party immediately termed in all
'the states, with its avowed champions and
recognized presses. It exists already : iu
ati embryo state at the Synth ' *as well as
tlie North. It has alreadY celebrated the,
success of its favorite by pliblic rejoicings;
I wider the very windows of the .President)
at Washington, greatly, no doubt, to the !
disgust of its! principal imp ' ate. Already
there are journals in the slate states., Which,
'from the iiNt, have expressed their earn-1
est desire that Douglas might prevail io
the Illineis.electious, and have done their!
best by friendly and ingenious explana
thins of his-opinions on the Kansas dues-'
tins'—explanations whieWhe will himself!
, probably now adopt—to make them accept- 1
Ole :to the South. Ilere in New York
we have federal' office-holders who . favor
the; cause of Douglas with.all their hearts,
and :look to him as"sure•ta be - the muii
, data of !their party at the Pharleston-Con

tration ' which gave them their places, and

their Laflamme,. atitldwhich well knows
what they are doing, leave them -where
they at'elt A few days will probably de
cide !' this question. The Tamtnauy or
ganilation in thiS city is known to be
friendly to pouglas, and i will henceforth
link itself th his fortunes._ _ _ _
For the present, then, .Douglas is the
heirapparent to the succession-. - Not only
the hupes of Mr.-Buchanan, but the hopes
of -a hundred others, tunbitious to win a
name 'in history by-fi g urin g as the Chief
Magistrate of our Republic in these days
of its :prosperity, -when, though so young,
it is yet formidable, and though great,
seems growing into a more colossal great
ness; are cruskpd by this successful rebel-
Domilas against what gasses for
orthodoxy at WasbingtonEve.lPost,sth.
Te . the'nbOve we add the following ex
tract from the Post of Saturday
" Douglas has yet to , gain Illinois; he
has the legislature, but not the people.
The course he has' hitherto taken has not
secured him the popular majority. Hu
must take his political creed to a Pew draft
if ho means, to satisfy - the people of- the
free states. ',They will hardly he egnung.
with the. haStard dogmas, by maintainiug
which the equivocal victory, over" tke Re
publicans;- of Illinois was gained. To
brave the Administration successfully, in
a part of Die country where it had already
wade itself detested, will tied was a
muell'easier;titsk than the oue he has-yet

It is plain to" eyery observer that

every one who.did.not fall down and wor
ship the idols iviiiela it set hp, its attacks
upon State SoVereignty, and its' devotoin ;
and subserviency to a miserable faction of
southern fire eaters, while, all the time it I
proelahned itself the special orilan of the
Administration, have gone far to destroy
all . confidence in that Administration. The consequence, is, that on an ripeal to
i
the balled-box, the people haveeotated
that they prefer the ascendency of ieetion
al Republicanism, rather than such'doe;
trines as have ben - maintained by the
Administratioh and its organs.
We do not regard the result, hawever, l
as a real defeat Of the Democratic party.
It is only a :popular, condemnation of Le - - 1
couiptonism.
Democratic principles are still dear, to
the hearts of the people,.and it is becanse
they loye consiste'so and Dentocra4, that
they have thus recorded their verdict
against an Administration which has,, in
their opinion, departed front bOth.
Let the Adtiduistration return to the
principles; enunciated in the cineintiati
Platform, and the Nebraska Bill, and mask,
to proscribe and persecute Democrats, and
the people will again sustain it. 1
