Elections In New England. A State election took place in New Hampshire about ten days ogo, and a sumilar election will take place in Connecticut on next Monday, and also one am Rhede Island on next Wednesday. These elec- tions are important at this crisis, into which the country has been thrown by the agitation of the anti-slavery question throughout the Union. It is true these elections are for State officers ; but the several parties engaged in the contest conduct the controversy with more reference to national affairs and national questions, than to mere local or per. sonal objects. Above all other issues, it 1s, perhaps, needless to say that the anti-slavery question min- gies in the movements. The recent sublime posi- tion assumed by Mr. Webster on national affairs— not overlooking even the factious course of Mr- Seward, the demagogue—afiect these elections to agreat and singular extent. The election in New Hampshire, which was held about ten days ago, terminated in the complete tri- umph of the democracy of that State, by a large majority over the separate forces of the whigs and free-soilers. All the returns of this.election are not received, but sufficient has been ascertained to know the general result. The controversy, pre- vious to the result, was conducted with special re- ference to the important and agitating question which has occupied the attention of Congress during the last three months. The democracy of New Hampshire, through their journals, assumed | the highest position in favor of the Union, under | the constitution—discarding the Wilmot proviso, and declaring themselves mm favor of a fair and just compromise of the slavery question, affecting the mew territories. The democratic journals—such of them as have expressed an opinion—approve the position and principles avowed by Mr. Webster, al- though he never belonged to their party associations in times past. ‘1 he doctrines avowed in this contest, by the whigs, were more in favor of free soil and abolitioniem, although they hardly went so far as the free soil party. The whig journals endeavored to draw some aid to their ranks, by sapporting the present cabinet and the existing administration at | Washingt n; but this was so mixed and miagled | up with Wilmot provisoism, free soilism, and Se- | wardum, that it did not take much with the intelli- | gent and sturdy people of New Hampshire. The | free soilers,as a separate and distinct party, of course, adopted the ultra abolition ground, openly and violently in favor of Mr. Seward’s movement in the Senate. The result of this election, therefore, 1s a very significant fact, developing opinions on the great controversy of the day, by a portion of the inde- | pendent people of New England. ‘The result will not vary much from being about thirty thousand votes for the democracy, twenty thousand for the whigs, and about eight thousand for the free | soilers. This, therefore, is the position, after a ‘warm contest, on which these several parties en- tered, in reference to the great controversy in Con- gress, to Mr. Webster's position, and also to Mr. Seward’s abolition ground. A State election will take place next Monday, in Connecticut, end a ilar one in Rhode Island, on Wedneiday. Candidates for governors, lieu- Tentant governors, and other officers, have been named on all sides. Three parties will enter the field, completely organized with candidates, prin- | ciples, views, purposes, and results, viz; the de- | moctats, the whigs, and the freesoilers. ‘The | democrats of Connecticut and Rhode Island, in | the approaching elections in those States, assume | preeisely the same national ground on tne | slavery question which marked the course of the | same party in the recent election in New Hamp- | shire. They declare themselves in favor of a fair | and just compromise of the slavery question in the new territories, without reference to the Wil- mot proviso, or any ultra abolition notions. The freesoilers, on the other hand, assume the strong, | full, abolition ground taken by Seward, in the United States Senate, and are conducting their @perations with this view. The whigs profess to | be favorable to the administration, but mix with | their avowals in this respect a strong tendency t the Wilmot proviso, and abolitionism, nearly simi. Jar in its stripe to that of the free soil party. The ournals and stump orators on all sides, with the | recruits trom the neighboring commonwealths, generally adopt the ground of controversy which we have indicated. The result, therefore, of the | approaching elections in those two States—Con- necticut and Rhode Island—will involve, in a great degree, the opinions of that other portion of the people of New England on the subject of the | present controversy in Congress, and the positions aesutned, respectively, by Messrs. Webster and Seward, an the United States Senate. Toa great extent, the cabmet and the present administration, lthough alluded to in some quarters, seem to be apparently forgotten by the press and the people at large. At the last State election in Connecti- ext, the demoeratic candidate for governor was elected by a plurality over the whig and free soil opposition. In Rhode Island, the last election ter- minated in favor of the whig candidate. This presente, therefore, a briet but correct view of the recent election in New Hampshire, ‘and a programme of the approaching elections in Connecticut and Rhode rd Bye. the public opinion of thore portions jew Eog- land on the great question which has been agitated in Congress since the commencement of the pre- sent session, and the grounds assumed by the leading stateemen there on the same issue. As far ‘an we understand the nature of the contest in Con- necticut, the chances are decidedly im favor of the democracy, whore principles and avowals are more im unison with the practical sense of the nation at thie crisis, than the ultra views of the free soilers | of foreign countris | studying the menage ; ten pin alleys, where none but the most beautiful ladies of the ton are admit | ner, and Seward eulogized to the seventh heaven. The chances in Rhode Island are not so favorable to those views, looking to an early and satisfactory mund in that little State, about the size ofa clam, has not been sufficiently awakened, in consequence of the mean views and narrow prejudices which yet bind up the newspaper press there. There is a pros- pect, however, that a majority of the people of New England, at the coming elections, either local or genera), no matter what party they may eall them- selves—there is a prospect that they will declare their adherence to the noble ground which has been assumed by Mr. Webster in the Senate, in preference to those narrow, dangerous, disunion, and atrocious sentiments put forth by that prince of demagogues, William H. Seward, of New York. We advise the people of Connecticut and Rhode jsland—the sensible people—the men of business— those who are in favor of the Union—of seeing this great, and powerful, and mighty republic last for ages—to come forward at this crisis, no matter what party distinctions they may assume, and put down those disunionists, Wilmot proviso men, and free soilers, who have been driving New Eng- land and the whole country into the dilemma and danger from which it is not yet extricated. Tue Sqvapntes in Concress—Goopn Symr- toms —The number of personal squabbles between members of Congress, on the floors of both houses, has been very numerous during the present ses- sion—more so than on any former occasion that we remember to have read of or seen. These squabbles, or volcanic eruptions, originate in dif- | ferences of opinion, growing out of the slavery agitation. Some of them have b@rst forth be- tween Northern and Southern men; and others, the most violent, too, between Southern men them- selves, or Northern men themselves. The follow- ing is an accurate hst or enumeration of those eruptions, during the present session :— . Botwemn Toombs, of Cieorgis, and the Clerk of the \ Houston, in the Senate. d Hale, in the Senate. nd Fitz Henry War- ren, Assistant Postmaster General. 6, Between Jefferson Davis and Bistell—all round— almost a fight. a Borland and Foote, {i street. in the in thi en King and Speaker round. Some of our cotemporaries pronounce these scenes disgraceful, awtul, wicked, impious, black- guard, shocking, terrible, unchristian, unsocial, unfeeling, unphilosophical, unclassical, and unlike common sense. We can’t muster courage enough —we mean moral courage—to agree to all these epithets or denunciations, except the last. We rather think that these amiable volcanic eruptions between the several members are only part of the very natural process by which the great contro- versy of the day can be settled, finally, to the satis- faction of the country. Before a continent 1s fit for the habitation of the human race, or a country capable of yielding gold dust, geologists have dis- covered that it must go through a series of vol- canic eruptions, of a very interesting and romantic kind. There is more resemblance between the progress of the mental and material world, than perhaps people imagine. ‘These squabbles have as yet led to no bloodshed, although one of them came very near We have had about a dozen of these eruptions; and, before the question is setiled, we ehall have, per- haps, as many more, particularly if they should be bleodiess. A real downright duel, with two killed, and half a dozen wounded, on each side, would jmprove the manners of both houses of Congress, and tend materially to settle the slavery questton. Men’s private passions and ambition are alwa: interfering with great public questions. We ani cipate, therefere, some richer scenes in both | houses than have already taken place ; and, judging | from the philosophy of growing potatoes, we don’t see how the great question of the day can be set- tled, until all the voleanic matter raging in the bo- | soms of the several members shall have got vent, | and fully exploded, to the interest of the newspapers, the astonishment of the public, aod amid the jeers | Let Vesuvius play away ! Tur Forrest Divonce Case—Morr Drvetorn- ments —We give place, in another column, to a letter from Mr. N. P. Willis, with respect to the evi- dence presented on the side of Mr. Forrest against bis wife. The letter 1s chiefly intended to explain | the nature of the visits of Mr. N. P, Willis’s brother, who has been in Europe tor several years perfect- Truman Smith, the sole representative ot the Cabi- net in Congress, undertook to whitewash that con- cem, by a dry, old fashioned, political speech, last- lation to which he belongs. {t seems that, but for the extraordinary recollection of Mr. Bradbury, of Maine, and Truman Smith, of Connecticut, the people of this eeuntry, as far as the debatesof Congress are concerned, would have hardly known that the Cabinet existed in Washington, or that there had been any removals or appointments by that worthy set of men, under the administration of Gen. Taylor. The fact is, the Cabinet have been utterly forgotten, either in the importance of the debates in Congress, or in the insignificance of their own acts, their own position, their own character. Truman Smith, like Old Mor- tality, has been going about the political world, and endeavoring to lay bare those inscriptions which actually test the existence of the Cabinet at Washington. What is more amusing and laugh- able, is, that for the very opportunity which was given to him to dehver his speech, he was not indebted to the whig party, which elected General Taylor, and from whom the Cabinet was selected, but to the democrats—the locofocos—who had the bowels of compassion to give him a chance to pro- nounce his eulogy, or funeral oration, on the acts of the Cabinet, and to defend them from the terrible onslaught of Mr. Bradbury, which no one read and no one remembers. Never, perhaps, in the history of this govern. ment, was there any President elected whose Cabinet presented to the party who elected him such insignificance, and who were so soon forgot! ten, as the preseut one. Probably their very in- significance, and the utter unconcern which the whig party seem te possess for them, is the best tenure by which they can hold power during the continuance of General Taylor in the presidency. They are looked upon as nothing—as woree than nothing—and no one seems to care a fig whether they go out or remain, es can be easily seen by the total indifference which the whigs in Congress entertain towards their'acts, their declarations, or the developement of their policy. Tne Recent Trapes’ Meetines.—Ciry Taxa- t10n.—Our columns, during the last few days, have teemed with reports of the meetings of the trades- men and mechanics of this city, in reference to rates of wages, and other matters pertaining to their special interest. All those meetings have been conducted with a good deal of practical sense, and much natural tact. No attempt has been made, except on one occasion, to introduce the doctrines and objects of foreign socialists among the trades- people. The purpose of these meetings has been ‘o esk of the employers a small increase of wages, which is rendered necessary in consequence of the recent increase of rents by the landlords of this city. This increase of rents, it seems, is justified by the Jandlords, in consequence of the enormous yaxation which falls on real estate, and the exemp tion of the property of many of the wealthiest men of business, because they live elsewhere, while | they do business here, thus eluding the payment of their just contmbution to the expenses of the | city. While the tradespeople and mechanics are in- vestigating and consulting on their own special affairs, we think they should look beyond the im- mediate cause of their complaints. If they do so, they will find that the excessive taxation in this city, the misconduct of the Corporation, and the inefficiency of the laws regulating taxatioa, have produced twethirds of the evile of which they complain. Property, probably to the amount of one hundred mulhons of dollars, belonging to rich and wealthy men of business, merchants, and manufacturers, escapes taxation entirely, in con- sequence of the inefficiency of the laws, and the bungling ot the Corporation. Thus the real es- tate 1s saddled with the whole of our vast city expenses. ‘Theatrical and Musical, ning, to the We allude apway Tuearre.—The “Lady of Lyons,” a play | always inclines the heart to sensibility. was per- formed here jast sight.
