Gen. Wilson. We are pleased to state that the Massachusetts Senate made choice on Friday last, of Hon. Henry Wilson, for U.S. Senator, for six years from the fourth of March next. The election is received with great gratification in all parts of the State – in the districts whose senators voted for Gov. Andrew, as well as in those whose senators cast their votes for Mr. Wilson. No man in civil life has done more or labored harder for his country since the war broke out than has Mr. Wilson; and we have not seen a single republican in Nantucket who is not delighted that he is reelected, or who would not have voted directly for him had the opportunity been presented.— Nantucket Inquirer.
