True, our victories are no, oil brilliant that
which Wellington won over that great gamestcr
IN kingdoms on the rolling field Of Waterloo. We
ask for no such victories as that. We seek only
10 know that the tide Is turned Waterloo IL rot
vet approached. Martin Van Buren,. the great
political gamesier o. he day, has cunnsngIy played
his cards, aud by hook or by crook, has been
successful 10 The present time, BOT IA the Noycm-
Der elections he will find h. Waterloo Ills sun
is setting. His day is nearly over. The people
are tired Of him and his tricks.
The Evening Pos, of yesterday is right then in
surprising that these Wing victories all arouse u
10 arms. Even If thcg had not come 10 to cheer
and 10 gladden. our hearts &C were daily witnessing
enough al home to animate Us. We see that
Martin Van Burcu has no favor with that mighty
multitude Of the Loco Focos, whose honest but
exaggerated uotious Of reform are far batter than
the corrupt and curtupting system at Albany We
know that with the honorable ard hsh minded,
the intelligent ard tire good, there can b. no az

AwaKE, then, we cry--we wish we could speak
with trumpet tongne-AWAkE. Victory Is
within orr grasp, and II bu, awaits our coming.
Let US organize and act, Let u- make tie Regency
trcmble IN its very citadel at Albany Let Us bring
the mighty catapulta Of public opinion 10 batter
down ITS walls Mechanically sleep ye il i,

hope Mechanics, Farmers An ogsrcby at Al
bany now demands your help. Gen. jackson lsofi
the field and courier has made himself his pet,
and this courtier will be Jackson's heir at law IN
the Presidency. What have you To gain 10 such
an ignoblc victory, even If you helped to win it,
and II could be won To arms, 10 arms, thcn--we
repeat the cry. Let there be no more doubt, no
more hesItancy no more Of these shameful cries Of
despair.
