On the other hand, we elect democratic Gov
by majority of about 5000 over their hiSbe,,

the present posture of affairs in tins Stat. ,

as Mississippi is concerned, we have rood pr,,,

their hopes than ever.
A general glance at the present state Of the n
ties viii thus show that the Administration IA, l.
cause 10 be discouraged at the partial and Ten,
rary triumphs OF federalism at the North, Il
prospect ahead Is most cheering. Several DEN
cratic meetings have been held in the State Of n,
York since the federal triumph, all Of which bh,s.
the best spirit; the people are beginning to be an,
ed to the true state of the question--thcy see Il,
they have been mnmentarily deluded. The M
nous and insulting attempts of the ragncne,
the city of New York to buy them up BY chanus
donations, are seen through and treated will
same contempt and detestation with which ON d
triotic ancestors met the offers Of royal pardon "
indemnity during the revelation. The demGns
papers Of the Empire Stale are rousing up, III

Albany Argus, the leading democratic paper Ofb
State, speaks in tone which cannot be misuus

defeat. and in eloquent and cheering tones, rs
the democratic party To united and vigorous el.

and iorezo part of lis objections 10 the Sub tn
sury scheme. Nay, more--if we have not mist
derstood him--he has clearly minated that il i
question be narrowed down to the Sub Treax
scheme, or National Bank, as il ultimately mu
he will support the former. Virginia, ,re Ina
will. OF all the States in the Union, she is
most decidedly opposed TO National Bank.
A glance, then, at the present state of tingI
