THE CRISIS.

liz Chi''I'
Sufficient is now known to decide the result
in all the states. Mr. Van Buren, has received
the votes of seven states: n. Hampshire, Vir-
gna, South Carolina, Arkansas, Alabama, Hi
nois and Mssouri--j0 votes in the whole. Gen.
Harrison has received the votes Of the other
nineteen states, being 23i in the whole, and
minority of III over Mr.. Van Dlren. Never, in
the annals of party controversy, has it fallen to
the lot of the historian to record such an over
whelminy defeat. Els, ives, north and south,
seem to have We'd with each other in pronoun-
cling loud and unparalleled condemnation of the
present administration. And yet, no,withstand-
ing these facts, the Leading organs of the admin
is,raton thns sgnal,y rc5lkcl b. the people, are
calling upon the Democracy 10 'sand firm to
maintain their party organization, and to resist
the policy Of the next administration, he it what
it may. "Such an appeal, so unworthy in itself,
and SO sure of producing party bitterness and
perpetuating party hostility, should be listened
to by no reasonable man. That Gen. Harrison
is elected by an overwhelming majority, all must
admit, and the people who have elected hlr,
will feel bound, in honor, TO sustain his Admins
traton. The Efforts then, of the defeated dvnas-
", if made with the zeal and violence threaten
ed, will only operate to consolidate the Wing
party, and give them the power. if they possess
the WILL to carry out measures OF party char
acter. II, on the contrary, the defeated dema-
gogucs are suffered 10 sink into the dishonored
graves they have dug for themselves, the can
vass for the next President will be conducted
upon those elevated considerations of public GOOD
which will give dignity and usefulness to the
controversy. Gen. Harrison is elected for one
term only, and will put his measures before the
country in a spirit that will challenge the rcspcl'
of every honest man, as lie will be removed
beyond the desire and the imputation of in
triguing for a reelection and it can hardly be
supposed that discreet and intelligent people
will be led on by iactious demagogues, TO make
his measures the subject of vindictivc hostility
We look to the good sense of the people for cor
rcction of the criminal course which parlisans
threaten, and we hope, for the peace prospect
and happiness o. the country, that we may be
enabled to devote the next four years to the pur
suit of those objects which Will elevate and adorr
