Monroe Republican, published in Brock
port, N. Y, threw of the Regency yoke
last week. In giving his reasons for
the deed, the editor remarks.
"This paper heretofore, as is well
known to our readers, has advocated tho
reelection of Andrew Jackson to the
Presidency"
"By his executive career he has put
himself eiihoa The pale Of democratic al
legiance, which empbatically pronounces
as the object Of support, PRINcIPLEs NOT
MEN"
He takes into view and deprecates
Jackson's construction of the Consttu-
ton and his duties under this abuse
and defiance Of the Senatc-and his
numerous and dangerous usurpatons Of
power. Speaking ofa protective tariff,
he adds:
"Whoever heard Of Mr.. Van Buren's
raising his voice in its favor, and who
has not heard OF Mr.. Clay's unrcmitting
exertions? The farmer and mechanic
will answer for u.s."
Again;
Entertaining these views, it becomes
us to cut loose from tho connection that
now binds US and prerenis The free erprcs-
sion Of oar opinions, and assume that
bearing, which becomes an independent
editor"
"ln conclusion, we say to the oppo-
nents of the present general and state
administrations, ace are uih you."
What further proof do we need of the
rapid downfall ofthe Jackson party and
their entire dereliction Of princple?-
When those, who have enjoyed the sun
shine of executive favor and patronage,
and who may be supposed to know the
whole ground work of The party, come
out so boldly and openly against their
former friends, we have a right to pre-
sumo at least, that "therc is something
rotten IN Denmark. ."-Haryord Mercury.

KENTUCKY ELEcTIoN.-.It is now as
certained that Breathitt's majority in all
the counties except one, Pike, is 1896;
and that county will not vary this major
ity much. Morehead is elected by n
considerable majority, but the number is
not reported. 1t is said the Senate will
stand for Clay 80; for Jackson Is. In
the House, as far as heard from, there
were for Clay SO; for Jackson "a; ten
not heard from, which would probably
be equally divided, making the Clay ma
iority in joint ballot %. The Baltimore
Chronicle contains an extract Of a letter
written by gentleman in Kentucky, in
which he says:-
"The effects Of the Veto are now be-
ginning to be felt. The payment of the
thirteen millions Of 3 per cents. and tho
Veto have caused the bank to decline all
new business, and the pressure has COM
menced and will be most severely felt
l have conversed with many since the
election, and know thirty-three persons
who have abandoned the Jackson cause
since the election. Yop may rely on it,
the electoral vote Of Kentucky will 90
tor Mr. Clay by a majority Of at least
50OO."
The Globe, in attempting to account
for the success of the Clay Ticket for
Lieutenant Governor; tells a very long
story, which certainly proves nothing un-
favorable to the prospects of the Nation
al Republicans at the November elcc-
ton. Both Buckner and Morehead
come from the Green River county
Why one should have lost his election,
and the other gained it, can only be ac-
counted for on the ground of difference
in personal popularity. The Globe says
that Morehead embodied against his
antagonist, all the Green River county,
&c. and that he has always been fortu-
nate in his canvass for State Offices. We
are also told that he was selected by Mr.
Clay himself, on account of his tact and
popularity. Why should he be less pop
ular and influential in November? Mr..
Buckner, as has been repeatedly stated,
became warm Presbyterian, after that
denomination Of Christians had been
prominent as body in urging the stop
page of mails on Sunday. This is the
only plausible reason that has been as
signed for his want of success; and phi
