1T Is FINISHED.

The verdict Of the People, says the Log Cabin,
"has been rendered, and its hunders are now peal
ing through the land!" tits the knell of Loco Fo-
coism! it is the funeral dirge of Van Burenism!
tbs the death-note, we will ondly hope, of Official
Insoence and unblushing Corruption! Parties
must ever exist, and party struggles--often fierce
and vehement--must, from time to time, convulse
The Country; but we hope never again to see the
day when One Hundred Thousand Office Holders
and other direct dependents on the bounty of the
Federal Government shall openly MARSHAL drill,
animate and lead on party having for its chief
end the perpeuation Of power in the hands of their
leader and chief and of the honors and emoluments
of public station in their own grasp. Never be-
fore in this Country was so gross and sweeping a
violation of the vital principles of Freedom ex-
hibited as in this contest. Every where have the
PostmasteIs, the Custom House Officers, the Post
Office runners, the Land Officers, and even down to
the Mail Contractors--with of course, few excep-
tons, which only render the general truth more
sriking--devoted their time and their energies to
the upholding of their masters cause and the Sc.
curing of his reelection. They have fought the
battle with vehemence and desperation Unknown
to the annals of previous political warfare. No
weapon has been too savage to be wieided-no de-
vice too base to be resorted to- If either promised
to add one vote to the poll of Van Buren, or sub
tract one from that of Harrison. They have man
aged to turn in their own favor all the prejudices
engendered by fifty years of political conflict with
The social discomfort which repnes at the allotmens
of Providence and hates as we'll as envies the pos
SCISSORS of wealth or the otherwise favored Of for
tune; and to these it has succeeded in adding the
mass of our Adopted Citizens, who have been in
duced, by fragrant falsehoods and shameful misrep-
reservations, to cast their strength into the Loco
Foco scale with an energy, unanimity and power
wholly without parallel. They will yet barn,
we trust to know US better, and to rrgsrd
their deceyers with the Indignation and abhorrenc,
they have so richly merited.
Such were the formidable odds with which the
Office Holders entered upon the contest of 1910,
with sixteen Of the twenty-sx States completely in
their hands; a popular majority according to the
latest test, in two others the possession Of the
Federal Government with the direction and enioy-
mcnt Of its Golden streams of Patronage amount

Kendall has come to Cincinnati, and Blair has
sailed for Cuba. We cannot guess what Kendall
is AFTER but we suppose that Blair has gone to
raise a few regiments of bloodhounds for the
prosecution Of the civil war which he has threat
ened to wage for the reinstatement Of Van Bu-
rem.
We are informed, that, during the night after
Kendall's arrival in Cincinnati, he was serenaded
with the sound of tin horns, pans, and kettles.

of his being far away from his home in Wash
