Senator to Congress.
Let the "Star-spangled Banner" triumphantly wave. Freemen will rejoice on the occasion, that Nehemiah R. Knight is re-elected United States Senator for six years longer. He, whose inflexible fidelity to his country, during its recent struggle to sustain our National Independence, was satisfactorily demonstrated, and still continued, by uniform exertions to support those sublime truths-the political creed of such worthies, as a Jefferson, a Madison, and the "Chief who now commands." Therefore he merited the dignified office now conferred upon him.
