THE cRHAT CoMTEsT 1!

Hurrah for the father of all the great West;
 For the Buckeye who follows the plough"
 The Great Battle has been fought, and the Whig Banner floats in triumph throughout the Union !- Cen. WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON and JOHN TYLER are undoubtedly chosen President and ePresident of the United States by an immense majority of the popular vote of the people, and an overwhelming one in the Electoral Colleges. The notes of exultation and joy on the one hand are ringing through the country, and of amentation and woe on the other We did not take up pen to exult over prosraie toeD but merely to record the facts respecting the cleo tiODs. as, they have come in.

They cry out changes and gains. To prove this,
they hunt up 4 few men, whom they may have gained
since 80, and trey then add to li,em men who have long
since changed, Federallsts, minors, and sometimes they
tack on a man who has not chanced-and then they cry
them up all as recent changcs.-SuclI, the Harpcrs
Ferry ConstitutionalIst says, is the case with the late list,
published by the Frederick Conservatives, &c.-"Ihc
managers are well aware that # they told the people that
most Of those changes had taken place years ago, and
that nearly all OF them, who voted at all, voted against
the Democratic party at the last Congressional election,
when II was admitted that the Administration had a de-
cided majority in the State; that some of them had been
Conservatives, and other old Fcderalis,s all their days;
that some Of them had not been legally qualified to vote
heretofore, if they are now; and others Just arrived at
the age Of maturity, and a fcw Of them are still Admin
istration mcn-so that after making all the deductions,
and scraplngs together, from the highways and bye
ways, every one who could a, all be construed INTO a
change, they have only been able, with all their hum
bug aud noise, with all their force and fraud, with all
their speechitying and clustering, and the pious lainen'
ta,ions Of I. laundering HtUie' to boot, to effect a change
in some ten or fifteen instances IN a large and p"pn!"ns
county, it would have argued but a little for their cause.
