The Township Elections

We have given details of the result in some towns where Liberty tickets were nominated. From many others,where the Liberty vote was large, we have had no particulars. We learn, howevcr, that Liberty supervisors were elected in the folio wing towns: One in Commerce, Oakland County. One in Rome, Lenawee County. One in Cooper, Kakmazoo County. One in Prairie Ronde, Kalamazoo Co. One in Burr Oak, St. Joseph County. One in Park, St. Joseph County, One in Burlington, Calhoun County. One in Rives, Jackson County. Next spring this list should be at least quadrupled. In quite a number of towns organizations were made for the first time vvith encou raging success. As an instance of his, we may mention Onondaga, in Inglam County. T. W. Zales writes us 'rom this town: "Tli e good cause is gloriously prcgressng down here with us. And as a proof of this, I will give you the result of our Tówn meeting. Onondaga has been considered the last town íhat would come out and organize a Liberty party. The greatest number of Liberty votes that has ever been given at one time, previous to ;his Town meeting, was six. A few days jefore town meeting, we called a meeting to consider the expediency of forming a third Political Party, and after a discusson of the subject, it was finally carried n the affirmative. We accordingly went on and made out our Nomination. And wonderful to teil, without help from other Parties, elected part of our ticket, and 6 votes had increased to 32. This is a glorious victory." From all places from which we have leard, the result is just what migbt have Deen expected. Where exertions were made, the increase was proportionate: where none were made, there was no increase. Such we may expect to be the result in future, - a result which afibrds the highest encouragement to the active and perseveringjwhileit.shouldbe a warnLng to the indolent and sluggish.Gr3 The Philadelphia correspondent of the Albany Patriot says ihnt attempts tojudnap on the border line of the free States have become quite frequent oflatc. In Coatesville, Pa. in an afFair of this kind, one of the kidnappers was shot, and died in three days. This increased activity in man-stealing is in consequence of the augmented priceof negroes. Field hands average $200 more than they did last fall. The slaves of Gov. Kent, of Maryland, averaged $700 each, at a recent sale. But there was an unusual number of handsome yellow girls in the lot. This rise in slaves is caused by the increased value of cotton, that article being worth nearly two cents a pound more than it was a year ogo. (ï5 Our exchanges anriounce a geneeral rerival of 'business, especiaíly, in tho cities. The number of country merchants purchasing in Philadelphia, New York and Boston, is said to be greatcr than at any time since 1837. A considerable rise of many kinds of goods has already taken place - a general rise of real estáte may beexpected to follow. (tT53 The Allegan Record saya that "a national sanetion to slavery has never yet been given." What is requisite to constitute tf "sanetion"? Are not several thousand persons now held as slaves in the District of Columbia, by virtue of an express act of Congress? Does not this ainount to a sanction? How can friend of the Record escape the force of this single fact? .{H The Massachusetts Legislature have passed an act declaring that "in all prosecutions for selling spirituous ox fermented liquors without license, tho legal presumption shall be that the defendant has not been licensed; and if he relies on a license in his defence,it shall be incumbent on him to prove that fact by an attested copy of the record of his license." L7 Mr. Merrick's Post Office bill has passed the Senate, 29 to 14. The following are the rates: not over 30 miles, 3 cents: not over 100 miles, 5 cents: do. 300 miles, 10 cents: over 300 miles, 15 cents. 05 We are assured that there was no unión ticket in Burlington, as we quo ted from thé Statesman. Every man on the ticket was a political abolitionist, anc was nominated by them. But some Whigs voted this ticket, and most of it was elected. (L Liberty vote in Connecticut fo Governor, is 1971 - just 99 more thar last year.
