THE BEAUTY OF LIRFRrY

The BEAUTY OF LIBERTY.
I'm all thing that have beauty, there IA moth
ing % man more comely that liberty. ."--MIETpr
When the dance of the shadows
AT day-break is done,
And the checks Of the mornins
Are red with the sun:
When he sinks in his glory
AT eve from the view,
And calls up the planet
To blaze in the blue,
There is beauty. But where is the 5eautv 10 seo
More proud than the sight offs nation when tr,e,:s,
When the beautiful bend
Qf the bow is above,
Like collar Of light
On the bosom Of love;
When the moon in her mildness
Is floating on high.
Like banner Of silver
Hung out in the sky;
There ia beauty. But earth has no beauty to 90 g,
More proud than the front Of nation when free.
In the depth of the darkness,
unvaricd in hue,
When the shadows are yelling
The breast Of the blue;
When the voice Of the tempeot
At midnight is still,
Anu the spirit Of solitude
Sobs on tho. hill;
9'he:c ig beauty. But whare is the Beauty to ace.
Like thob broad bcaming brow Of a nation when
free?
In tho breath Of the morning,
When natures awake,
And elaps up the chorus
To chaunt Of the break,
In the voice of the echo
Unbound in the woo!s,
In the warblng of streams
And the foaming of foods
There is beauty. But where is the beauty to soc,
Like the thrice hallowed sight Of . nation that's
frce7
When the striving Of surges
Is mad on the main,
Like the charge Of colHmn
plumes on the plain;
When the thunder is up
From Ills cloud Graded sleep,
And the tempest is troading
The path Of the deep:
There is beauty But where is the beauty 70 see,

which has just demolished the last battal
ion OF Federalism and its ally in this
State. No means were left untried by
the Opposition; their orgahizatioh wasake
most perfect, they were supplied with
funds from Boston and New York; they
flooded the State with electioneering pub
lications; their candidates visited every
part of the State, haranguing the people
and soliciting their votes; they were al
ded by every religious paper in the State,
as well as; by food ofspeeches attacking
the Administration, thrown in by FEEDER

Democracy came out in its power and
scattered the corrupt faction 10 the four

THE RESULT.
We have elected 5ohn Page Governor
bv n majority gilmore thln SIX THOU
SAND-showing a clear Democratic nett
gain of more than THREE THOUSAND
in one year. We have elected four Of the
five Counsellors, ten of the twelve Sena-
tors, il being a gain Of two districts: and
about one hundred AMI fortv-two repre-
sentatives out of 235-increasing the
Democratic majority from eighteen last
wear, TO fifty in the popular branch Of the
Legislature. We have elected orr whole
ticket to Congress by about the same ma
jority as that for Governor, and the conn
" officers in every county excepting

didate for the Vice Presidency is,perhaps
the best man in the world toemhody the
principles of that party. He was oppo-
sed to the late war, and in favor OF the no.
t5rous Hartford Convention. All his
speeches in Congress, ali his political har-
angucs, TEEN with the rancor and bitter
ness Of Federalism. The following pass
of arms between Webster and John q. .Ad-
