The Reaction in New Engiand.—Important Result of the Connecticut Election, The result of the election which took place in the State of Connecticut on Monday last, as far as known, presents traits of the highest importance, Jn the present crisis, into which the country has been plunged by elavery agitation and free soil fanaticism. That party, or that portion of the in- telligent people of New England, who have had the strongest sympathies for the Unien of the Statee, a fair compromise of the slavery question in the territories, and are opposed to the ultraisms ef the day, have triumphed in this election, and have just carried the Legislature of that State, secording to all accounts, from stem to stern. Col. Seymour, the candidate for Governor, put forward by this party, has probably only a plurality of the popular votes, which forms no election in Connecticut, but throws the subject into the hands of the Legislature for determination hereafter. [a that Legislature, he is sure, however, of being eleeted Governor of the Stete ; and the same body will have the power of electing a Senator to Con- grees, to take the place of Mr. Baldwin, whose time expires with the end of the present Congress, a year hence. We say that this has been a most important election, and has been attended with a most re- markeble result, in connection with the crisis into which the country has been plunged, the position ef pubhe affairs at Washington, and the opinions agitation settled before the termination of the pre- sent session of Congress, and that such disorgani- zere, demagogues, and ultras, as Seward, General Taylor’s cabinet, and their supporters, of all colors, will yet be left ona lee shore, without sympathy or support from the public, 1n any quarter. Prebability of War in Europe, The last accounts from Europe, although they mey appear unimportant to the superficial reader, are yet signalized by an absorbing interest, and fraught with momentous consequences, ealculated ‘0 attract the attention and arouse the suspicions of every thinking politician. By a close peraeal and strict investigation, it will be found that they present a new developement in the state of affairs on the European continent—that they disclose a different lime of policy than that hitherto uaiver- sally pursued by the potentates of that country. It appears that the sovereigns and despotic mo- narchs are rapidly increasing their armies, borrow- ing money, and concentrating their forces in every direction. Among the foremost in the pursuance of this new movement, may be reckoned the Czar of Russia, the Emperor of Austria, and the King of Prussia. These hostile proceedings and war- like preparations must evidently have some ead, some plan, some object in view. It is surmised by some who cluim a knowledge of the tendency of affairs, that these potentates are assiduously en- deavoring to carry out the idea agitated thirty years ago—stating what should be done with France after the exile of Napoleon—the idea of effecting a division of France, which has always been the nest of everlasting disturbances, party contests, wars, and revolutions, and which thereby brought the peace, the order, and security of the adjoming nations in jeopardy. This movement has now been revived by the despots of Europs; and in the accomplishment of this object, it is sup- posed, that they are preparing to pick a quarrel with France, on the Rhine, or in Switzerland, and will go on gradually, step by step, until they overcome and subdue that nation. The position of affairs in Italy, also, seems to Justify such suspicions. The Pope hesitates to re- turn to the Eternal City. It has been frequently re- ported that he ie preparing to go to Rome; but impediments seem continually to intervene and frustrate his return. It is now firmly believed that he 1, in fact, a species of prisoner, held by the King of Naples, who, being charged by the other monarchs, will not permit him to be under the power of the French arms, until the French question be settled. It is furthermore supposed, that if socialism gain the ascendancy im France, it will extend to Germany, Italy, and, im fact, all over the conti- | nent, and create such disturbances, tumulis, and revolutions as have been lately enacted in France, and will terminate in the total subversion of all absolute or despotic power. That this grand movement has not already taken place, may be mainly ascribed to the paucity of the socialist numbers, and to the policy and circumspection of the President, Loais Napoleon, who, in interest, is firmly allied to the crowned heads. But in the course of two or three years more, their ranks will have swelled to such an extent, by the accession of other faction’ ad their political importance attained such @ weight, that they will defy the whole combired forces of all the sovereigns in that have prevailed for some years past in New Kngiand and elsewhere in the North. Let us ex- plain. In the recent election in Connecticut, three par- tes entered the fleld—the whigs, the free soilers, and the locofecos. The whigs and free soilers olaimed exclusively, and appropriated to them. selves as their own property, all the doctrines of Wilmot proviscism, abolitionism, and free soilism. ‘They stood up particularly tor all the ultra views which have been put forward by Seward, and the | free sor! members of Congress. The abolition por- | tion of Gen. Taylor's cabinet, Ewing, Collamer & Co., exerted themselves, in connection with Tra- | man Smith, in favor of the whig party, thus pledged | and bound up es that party was to the ultraism. of the day, and leading ultimately to dissatisfaction on of the country. Thurlow Weed, at nd Horace Greeley, at New York, both | ef whom bave declared themselves in favor of dis- wnion, in preference to the extension of slavery to the territories, have also been endeavoring to benefit the whig cause in Ceanecticut, in connee- thon with Gen. Wilson an? Col. Baker, both mem- bers of Congress, and both of whom were iuneraat speakers in the recent contest The whole in- fluence end force of Gen. Taylor's adminustratioa, and of Senator Seward's ultra notions, were con- eentrated on that election in Connecticut, in order to earry it for free soilism triumphantly, in opposi- | Yon to their antagoniste. The special free soil party were equally ultra in their notions, although the greater portion of those who have heretotore | voted for that faction, abandoned their old grouad, and joined part of their forces with the whigs, on the ground that they represented their ideas equally as well and equally as strong. a the other hand, the demecrats or locofoco party, although in some ef the towns favoring to a certam extent the fanatical doctrines of the day, yet, accerding to the most authentic accounts, presented the only plattorm and the only ground calculated to sup- port the principles of the constitution, the union of the States, and the policy of a fair compromise of | the slavery question. The locotoeos, whatever objections may be made to many of their other doctrines, certainly aseumed, in the recent contest in Conpecticut, a more national, a more patnotic, and a more constituticnal ground, than either the whigs or the free oilers. It w, therefore, highly gratifying to find, in thie | eontest, that the good sense and patriotic feelings of the people of Connecticut, which has been, for } many yrare pest, a strong whig State, have broken | the ties of mere faction and party, and that they have nobly come oot for that party which pre- sented the beet ground, and the most national principles in favor of the union of the States and a fair ecmpromise of the great question of the day. Rt is no lees honorable to the people of Coanecticut tw bave thas expressed their opinions in the receat election, than it is disgraceful to the cabinet at ‘Washington, to Truman Smith, Wm. H. Seward, General Wilson and others, to have united in aid- Jing and suppor ting that party in Connecticut, whose ples are thove that ean tend to mothing but separation and division of this confederacy, The destruction ot the union of these States, "ne invasion of the principles of the constitution, fan they are bequeathed by the fathers of the revo- ution to the present generation. The general result of this election will be cheer- gng to the friends of the Union, and to the friends of the constitution, throughout the whole eonfederacy. It ie only a part and parcel of the ong same reaction which the State of New Hamp. | (07), | loses a oC shire indicated at her recent election, and which | vane turin Medital College. will, we have no doubt, although it may en- | m eounter much obloquy and oppoxition — Paw Eagland, yet prevail among that impor an patriotic rection of the confederacy. The great and Patriotic speeches of Messrs, Webster, Clay, Case and others, have not been without their effect Europe. Being aware of this tendency ot affairs, and trembling for the further security of their thrones, the allied despots are endeavoring to counteract this movement, so fatal to their dearest: interests, by aiming at a eeparation and division of France, before the socialists or demoeracy shall have reached such a degree of strength. | The first movement of the great powers, there- fore, will be directed towards the Rhine, er to | Switzerland, or to Italy, with the view of picking | a quarrel with France. The allied powers may renew hostilities with Switzerland upon questions | ot former dispute, invade that country with a nu- merous army, and thereby excite the sympathy of France, who will, undoubtedly, in such an emer- gency, aseist the Swiss, and, by so doing, will in- yolve herselt ina war, in which she will have to | encounter the combined power of united des potism. Theee svrmises acquire some probability from the nature of the accounts that have been brought tous by the last European ma Boston Orintons oF a Boston Junr’s Veroit — The newspapers of Boston sustain the verdict of the jury on the Webster trial, as a just and true one. This isnot surprising. They had tried and convieted the prisoner before the subject under- | went a legal exammation. The secret iaquest— which, in itself, should have vitiated the whole of the subsequent proceedings—furnished the evi- dence of guilt; and upon that evidence there was much more reason for making vp a fatal verdict, than upon that motley array of opinions upon hand- | writing and teeth, which went far to bias the mind of the jury. We donot assert that the prisoner was not guilty ; but we do assert that he was not proved to be guilty, by any legal eeidence of a relia- ble character, and we defy all the lawyers to the con- trary. However strongly circumstances may per- suade us of the quilt of the aceused, nothing has appeared to assure ua, beyond all doubt, that De. Parkman's body cannot be found elsewhere. Our duty in such tter is not to be guided by appre- hensive impressions, but by evidence at once clear and uncontredictory. From the first, we have | feared that the public opinion of Boston had se ted into a firm belief in the prisoner's quilt, from the mere presumption of evidence ; and the sequel has confirmed our most serious migivings. The public share in the surprise that has been created by the verdict, drawn out, if we are to credit the proceedings in the jury room, by three questions, in no one of which was suggestion made that their present power and distinction in New York. The public mind is now beginning to wake up, and probably a stop will be put, in the Assembly, to the further progress of this species of socialism. If they don’t, they may look out. Corrurtions oF THE Caninet.—The recent Gal- phin and other claims, which have been allowed by the present cabinet, ought to be investigated by the House of Representatives. The aspects pre~ sented by the policy and conduct of the cabinet in these matters are of the most atrocious and as- tounding corruption, We know nothing in the history of this country that can equal this “epeci- men brick,” unless it was in some of the corrup- tions of the United States Bank, before it was consigned to the tomb of the Cupulets, including the $52,000 affair, in which M. M. Noah, (now a sinecurist in the Custom House,) had a large finger. Let Congress investigate the matter at once. Tug Forsest Casg—Anoruen StaTeMant rrom N. P.

Nothing was dose in Washington, but the ead and melancholy business of conaigning to their hundred clay, the remaine of the late Hon. John C. Calhoun, of South Carolina. The members of both houses attended the funeral. Funeral obsequies to the illustrious deceased having been performed, and the ashes of the great South Carolinian having been deposited in tae Congressional burial ground, the great question of the day comes up again before Congrese to-day {t is to be hoped that calmness and moderation will guide the members of both houses, in their deliberations upon the slavery question. If they do, there is nothing to prevent @ fairand honorable Compromise, which will be satistactory to the mo, derate and sensible people of all classes and parties in the country, North and South, East and West From recent events and recent elections, we ure perfectly well satisfied and persuaded, that even in the most fanatical portions of the North and East, there is a powerful and influential under-curreat of public opinion in favor of a compromise, and op- poeed, im the highest degree, to any measure that would tend, in any respect, to a separation and dis- solution of this confederacy. We observe this feeling everywhere—on ’Change, ‘‘ where mer- chants most do congregate,” in the church, in the street, in the counting-house, in the coffee-house, in the family cirele—in fact, everywhere. Tae ultra fanatical views of such men as Seward and Thurlow Weed, both of whom, by the way, are very uppopular among the, masses, are not those of the people.
