BEAUTIFUL AND TRUE.

The following article from the Charleston
Courier is as beautiful in language as it is true
as to the statements which it makes.
No Wing should be dsheartcned by the defeats
which we have sustained in Georgia and Mary
land, and which we may sustain in other States.
The victories ofthe Locofocos are in truth ''1'ro-
jan triumphs;'' and when the time comes, the
Wing banner will be again seen waving trium-
phantly over the land.-Petus1vrg Int.
4 "Reminiscences Something tchieh has happened
and ,ciN happen again.
1t will be remembered, that at the State Elec-
tons which took place BEFORE the great Wing
Harrison Revolution-the Van Buren, party car
ried almost every State (Kentucky, New York
and Vermont excepted,) from Maine to Louisia-
ma. Morton, the loco foco abolitionist, carried
Massachusetts. Roman was elected in LOUISE
ana. Polk in Tennessee. M'Donald in Geor-
gia. Grason in Maryland. Porter in Pennsyl-
vania, &c. Indiana, which had voted for Harri-
son, went for the loco focos. Tennessee, which
had voted for White and given him majority of
had voted for White went for Mcdonald. Ma
ryland, which had voted for Harrison by large
majority elected the present loco foco governor.
Vermont even trembled in the balances. Ken
lucky was shaken. New York was surrounded
by. the enemy, and the Van Buren, flood swelied
of republican liberty to rest upon. The eye Of
the patriot, as he gazed around him, on every
side, as far as the horizons verge, was greeted
with cheerless black sea Of locofccoism-Van
Buren, seemed undispu.ed master Of the Union,
and his baleful reign perpetual. And so thought
his followers. But it was deceitful t.iumph-
as deceitful as those which no,u fill with false
joy the hearts of his partizans. Their victories
no,o, like their victories then, are but the sure
precursors of their final overthrow. The down.
fall OF Troy is not the less certain because 'Achi-
les is in his tent" Their victories are Trojan
Triumphs. They can no more permanently sue
coed over the Wings than did the British in the
revolution. Their triumps like those
which the English would gain if we went to war
with England. 1t is admitted that the English
would beat at first-but their short-lived tri-
umph would only serve to put the country on its
metal-to rally the people one man-to fire
their blood-to make them give up every thing
for their country, and to convert the untcelcomc
duty Of FIGHTING into their sole BUSIN ESS,
for the time, just as in the great HARRIsoN con-
test, the PEOPLE left their work-their work.
shops, their ploughs, their stores, and made the
ELECTION their sole business. This they can
not afford to do every day-but they WILL DO
| III AGAIN, when the TIME COMES, and the
Wings will as surely triumph as they did in '76
and 40. ONWARD.
Staunton spectator, and general advertiser. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 183?-1849, 1841-10-21

WHAT SAY THE LocoFocos 1.-The Baltimore
Republican ascribes the late triumph of its party in
Mary land to ''Me faDo refoes." This we do not
deny. And we find in its truth the severest re-
buke of those Wings who permitted their dssat-
isfaction with this single, however much-to-be
regretted, error of the Federal Executive, to be-
tray them into forgetfulness of their duty their
party, to their State, and to their principles. Let
the Baltimore Republican, however, and its cola
borers derive what comfort they from their pre-
sent success; the they assign for it is oft
selfprophetic of their overthrow; for unless they
can show Gas we know they cannot) that the ''ve-
toes have driven any Wing into the ranks of To-
cofocoism, their triumph will he short-lved, and
they may even now number its days.-Nat. Int.

SOMETHING FOR ORNITHoLoeIsTs.-We were
yesterday shown of the most singular and Outrc
specimens of ornthology which we ever saw
1t was bird resembling, in point of shape and
color of plumage, owl. The face, however,
had an animal appearance, and looked much like
that Of a baboon; the claws, feet, and legs too
were foreign to the usual construction of those of
an owl, resembling those of hen. The bird
was shot few days ago Pettit's Island.
Phil U. s. Gaz.
There is now in Wilmington IN. CO. strange
bird of the owl species, which was disabled by a
shot and taken alive on the shore, about eight
miles from town. No one about here has ever
owl of the kind, nor does Audubon in
his pathological work give any account Of such.
Its face, like the one spoken of above, strkingly
resembles that of babooB, and its feet and legs
have no feathers like our common owls, but have
a few hairs only, and in appearance very
much like hens feet. Its back and the upper
part of its wings are gray, spotted with white,
the breast yellow, the face and under portion OF
the wings Of dirty white.

CONNECTICUT ELECTIONS.

Our friends at distance must not suppose
there has been any detection in the Wing ranks,
because the Locos have carried few more towns
this fall than they did last year. There are as
many Wings in the State ever, but owing to
the unpleasant storm last Monday, they did not
attend the polls. The Locos took advantage OF
the weather. and carried few Wing towns, over
which they raising a great hurrah. They
may crow as Justify as they please, but will have
TO yield them in the spring. Taking the State
through, we do not suppose one quarter of the vo-
tiers were out.-Hari(ord C0uranf.
