New Hampshire Statesman And State Journal

Result of the Election.

We have rarely had it in our power to record a more gratifying piece of political intelligence, than the election of AMOS TUCK and JAMES WILSON as members of Congress from the First and Third Districts of this State. Returns of votes were issued in slips from this office on Friday and Saturday last, and profusely scattered through the central and northern portions of New-Hampshire; and through further returns, since sent abroad, the result of the election has been ascertained by our readers. It is one which could not, with the least reason, have been expected prior to the adoption of Mr. Tuck, on the 19th of June, by the Exeter Convention, and may, therefore, justly inspire the strongest hope that, by a union of honest men, the Granite State will in due time be perfectly disenthralled from the deadening, galling bondage under which she now groans.

This signal triumph of patriotism over party attachments;—of the free spirit of the North over the deceits and artifices of patent democracy;—will create a sensation as wide as the Union. It will be regarded, and justly so, as an omen for good to the whole country, and the sure forerunner of the permanent ascendancy of free, just, republican principles and usages in a state whose people have been disgraced for a long series of years by as reckless and tyrannical a set of partizans as ever rode rough shod over the backs of men. It is a result which makes it certain that the vote of New-Hampshire, should the Presidential Election run into the House of Representatives, can be given to no man who is not sound upon the Wilmot Proviso. It is a result which makes it morally certain that the present national administration will be in the minority in that House; and, being realized upon the heel of the President's visit to New Hampshire, and just so soon as the acts of the majority in the last Legislature were spread before the people, has fallen upon Nominal Democracy like an avalanche from the mountains. We never knew, in even our long acquaintance with political affairs in New-Hampshire, an election, at home or abroad, which came with such stunning force upon the clique who make Concord their head quarters. A clap of thunder out of a cloudless sky would have been no more surprising, than has news that Tuck and Wilson are chosen over Jenness and Moulton.

The occasion might be embraced to say many things naturally suggested by the triumphant and patriotic union of honest men in the First and Third Districts: to speak of the ceaseless abuse heaped upon the gallant Wilson for fifteen years by party hacks and Legislative 'small birds;' of the sneers cast at the conscientious and fearless Tuck, during all the period since he took ground against the ostracism of John P. Hale, for doing no more than follow out upon the Slavery Question the doctrines promulgated by the real democratic Legislature of 1820; and of the confidence which possessed nominal democrats, down to the close of the Legislative setting, that they should forever defeat the election of independent men in the vacant districts, and secure that of two yoke-fellows of Peaslee and Johnson. But all these matters will naturally occur to men's minds; and we close by expressing the devout hope, that the moral influences of this joyous result may be wide as our State, and permanent as its mountains. Let it inspire with new devotion to a glorious cause—the cause of LIBERTY over SLAVERY—of true over false democracy—of domestic prosperity over the blighting influences of Radicalism—all who desire to see New-Hampshire return to the good politics of 1820,—the days when honest men sat in the chief seats;—the days of the BELLS, the BARTLETTS and the WHIPPLES; and the State be cleansed from the defilement inflicted upon her by bastard sons. Then will the anthems of the free greet us with pealing shouts, and the days of our degradation be forgotten in songs of deliverance.
