MASSACHUSETTS ELECTION,
{"character_count": 1995, "word_count": 340, "ccnet_language_score": [0.9528999924659729], "ccnet_perplexity": [1337.9000244140625], "fasttext_language": ["en"]}
We take the following returns from the Boston
Atlas of yesterday morning. The returns re-
ceived are from large portion OF the State, and
they are sufficient to decide the issue of the con-
test.


They have not succeeded in electing the Gov.
ernor by vote of the People, but they have en-
sured such majority, in both branches Of the
Legislature, as viii place the administration of
the Government IN the hands of able, faithful and
patriotic Wings. We have hardly time to do
more, this morning, than to lay the details Of the
returns before our readers.


Returns have been received from the entire
State with the exception of4 towns, and stand as
follows.


Mr.. Briggs, Whig candidate, .,.....,,... 57,O6s


Morton, Loco. Foco ........... so, no


Making Briggs over Morton ....,,....,.. 1929
Scattering .....'..o,ooo
Leaving the majority of all other votes


against Mr.. Briggs. 4,556


sES1TE.-It appears that twelve Wings and
seven Loco. Focos are elected to the Senate Board
and that there are twenty.one vacancles-glv-
ing a Wing majority OF five, in the Senators
elected.


HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.


Ysj ss is No i:Ss. Y9 [4SS iss No fs5S' ss


CONGRESSIONAL ELEcrIoNs.-We have partial
returns from all the Districts in which Elections
of Representatives to Congress were to be held
yesterday-but we have no time even to prepare
those we have received.


In the Tenth District Mr.. GRNNELL (Whig)
is certainly elected by some 600 or 700 majority,
to fill the vacancy occasloned by the death of the
Hon. BARKER BURNELL.


1t will be seen that thus far there is Wing
majority of FIVE at the Senate Board and Wing
majority OF FeRrY-FoUR in the next House of Re-
presentatives Of the towns that have not cho-
sen, many have voted not to send, and many
have no right to send, having exhausted their
constitutional right to be represented. If the
Wing towns that have yet a right to choose Re
presentatves will only do their duty, there is no
fear but that the Commonwealth will be safe.
