Al ths recent election of Special Commission .ers, tie friends of Temperance succeeded very generally through the State. In this county, license Commissioners have been elected in only two towns (Kent and Washington;) in Canaan, New Milford, Watertown and Warren there was was no choice; in all the remaining towns the ..ati- license ticket prevailed. In Fairfield county, every town, except Danbury. have elected the anti license ticket. The towns in Windham county lave all spoken in the same voice and with very :.w exceptions such has been the case through the State.

 The following towns have elected license Com- roissioners :- Wallingford,. Glastonbury. Middle town, Avon, South Windsor, Oxford, Bloomfield, Stafford, Simsbury. Derby.

 What the effect ot the new law will be upon the cause of Temperance, is yet to be seen The law ie itself good one, and, if judciously employed, nay be productive of much good. It is democrat icleaving it to the people to regulate prohibit the sale of ardent spirits, they. in their sovereign wisdom, may seem fit. Some of our timid Whig friends are apprehensive that the law may be used in certain quarters to affect nuriously as par. ty. We have no such fears. It was not party measure. It was advocated and voted for by Wings and Democrats; and whatever good or evil there is in it, belongs to both parties.
