Jude not only the ardent supporters of opposite
principles, but even the victors themselves. The
tables are turned against US, and victories as IN
eSpectediy brilliant as our own achieved over us
by the party we thought PROSTATE.
Nothing can be more disheartening TO US as pa
,iots than superficial contemplation Of these re-
verses. 7 seems dark hour for American Free
dom; the anxious patriot already seems to see his
Country Star paling still further, and sickening
even unto death, in the poisonous atmosphere OF
political decentralization, while his long-deferred
and cruelty tantalized hopes of rescue seem about
10 be forced forward through another period OF
fearful uncertainty and danger. The Restora-
ton is soon TO made complete by a counterrevo-
luton in Congress, and the bare thought of what
that Loco-Foco ajority will be, when let loose,
All were, upon the country and SGT at their
longedor work of repeal and destruction, is fitted
tomake US shudder. Aside from the blighting in
auence of their legislation, there is terror in the
thought that all the increased political enginery,
and all the servile crew Of purchased mHions in
the Executive department throughout the land,
from the thing acting as President, upwards, will
be thrown into redoHbled activity, with new facil-
lics for corruption, with an open Treasury, and
no eye to detect the which its contents are
applied, and the aid of Loco-Foco Congress to
crush the spirit of Freedom in this nation, and TO
triumph over the name and the pure principles of
his coantry's truest friend, HENRY CLAY.
