This week gradual bu, certain improvement has

Banks discount most of the paper offered, and
notes are sought after by capitalists. The United

me as ever

The late Secretary of the Treasury, the Hon.
Thomas Ewing, must feel terribly distressed at the
late outpouring OF the lava of Democracy, in the
State OF Ohio. No man, not even MIR. Clay, was
more deeply Interested in the election of Ohio than
Mr.. Ewing. He returned home, TO his friends, with
his appeal spread before them and called upon them
to sustain him against President Tyler. Not only
did he make his call but he personally took the field,
Salt River, with any quantity Of Wing wrecks around
him. He will remain there for some time, and may
if he thinks worth while, try his hand at the man
ufacure of salt, which they say he understands bet
ter than finance, and may also instruct his Wing
friends who accompany him in tn branch OF Ameri-
can industry. The people of Ohio have retraced
their steps, and sacrificed III such crowds at the altar
of Democracy, that and all agree that the
Dayton affair was a mere piece of Wing humbug.-
1t also confirms what said about two weeks ago,
that the Wings carry before, and the Democrats al
the election. In looking this tremendous pros
trallon of Mr. Ewing Co., President Tyler will
see his upon the United States Bank, and his
other vetoes, nobly sustained by the people. OuI
neighbor of he United States Gazette Is excellent al
Iecturng but, when he attempts 10 talk OF coming
hg victories, ii is almost certain that he VIII max,
some monstrous mistakes. He confident that
Ohio would settle the question in favor OF Mr.. Ew'
ing and against President yler. So certain was he
this result that he said, at the meeting in front Of
the Mansion House, the night or SO before the cleo
ton, that Ohio would bring majority of % 900 votes
to the Allegheny mountains for the Wings. But tins
is what might be expected from neighbor, as he
is deeply skilled in politics, and especially in the
| strength and numbers Of the Democracy.

THE PRESIDENCY.

The subject of the next Presidential election,
we observe, is occasionally discussed, calmly
and dspasionatey by some of the ablest and
most influential Republican journals. The pol
icy of such discussion is strongly deprecated by
others. For ourself, we do not venture an OPT
non at this time, on the expediency of agla-
ting the subject. Yet we cannot withhold the
conciliatory tone maintained by many Of the
leading journals in reference to the subject.
Such kindness of temper must preclude the pos
sibity of imbittered jealousies and ranking
schisms and finally secure permanent triumph
of the great principles advocated by the party.
The subjoined article we take from the Nor
witch (Connectcut) News:
1t has been said by some one, and we wot not but
truly, that the present is time which we can most
profit by, and improve upon for our advantage. The
past may, probably, mpart to us some lessons, both
profitable and instructve but it also has its mex
haustlble storehouses of evil folly, and rotten and
exploded codes and systems. However,
Cline hath wallet at his back,
Now is a time when the millions of freemen scat
tered over the face Of this broad Union are awake,
and anxiously looking forward to that period when
ucy VIII again nave 10 participate IN the contest
which will place Chief Magistrate in the Chair of
State. Our own views upon the subject of the Pre-
sidency, we have already expressed. We firmly be-
lieye that no man in the whole country would do
more honor TO the Presidential office, or one who
would look more to the independence and prosperity
of the nation, and the happiness of the people, than
John Tyler. We grati6ed to hear of a favora-
BILE tone from the Democratic ranks to this same ef
feet. The eyes of the Democracy at present are
evidently upon the President. That he has been in
strumental in bringing about those measures for
which they have SO long commended they are willing
to acknowledge; and they look upon him as one who
has no small claim upon their favor.
In the coming contest we hope some respect will
be paid to decency and common sense. God grant
that for the honor of the country the disgusting and
gnominious which characterized the last Pre-
sdentia campaign may not be visited upon us in the
approaching one. Then clearly evnced the i'm
propriety and danger of exciting the passions Of
popuace habituay free to act and the utter impos-
siby Of controlling it when under its degrading in
huence Reason then, was of no avail-it was en-
tirely obsolete. 1t was but handful of dry leaves
against the whlrwind-the weight of gunpowder
against its kndled force.
But there has evidently been change in the minds
of many since those days. great revolution in
public sentiment has been going forward Men, who
appear to have repented OF their past of foolish
ness and folly, are siding with, and advocating the
cause CT truth and merit. Hence the present accu-
muating power of the Democracy throughout the
length and breadth Of the land May It always prove
victorious its foes.

DROWNING MEN CATCH AT sTRAws."

Our neighbors of the Intelligencer have very
keen optics, for, Notwithstanding the defeat OF
the Wing party in the recent elections in Penn
sylvania and Ohio, they pretend to see in their
results the evidence Of Wing triumph.
In speaking Of Pennsylvania, they say, that If
Dauphin Chester, and some other counties had
gone for the Wings, their party would have had
majority of twelve ON joint ballot! Also, In
reference to Ohio, they remark, that if they had
not sustained losses in Lorain and Medina, and
certain other counties, amounting TO two Sena-
tors and eight Representatives, the Wings
would have had majority on joint ballot
Now, nothing is more clear than that the
Wings, if they had got rotes enough, would
have carried both States, which is about the
amount of the consolation offered to The Wings
in the two paragraphs headed Pennsylvania and
Ohio, in Saturday mornings Intelligencer.
In the Ohio paragraph, the very candid editors
have suffered to escape from them confession
for which we beg to tender them our acknow-
Judgments. They call the Abolition candidate,
Mr.. King, "a Wing third party candidate."-
Comment is unnecessary.

more thorough sustainment of the former, and
indignant condemnation of the latter could not
have been given. To the President, this must
afford the highest possible qualification, not
merely that he should personally be sustained,
but because of the signal proof ii has so power
fully given of the intelligence and the purity Of
the people.
have been led into these reflections, because
this State is TO follow in the train Of those
which have already recorded their approval oil
President Tyler and his admlnistraIion-and
for the further reason that the high party zealots
among US will cry out, that IT is victory which
is TO nure 10 the benefit Of some favorite party
leader
Believe il not The recent elections cannot
with any regard TO truth, be considered as hav-
ing the slightest bearing upon the question OF
who is TO be the candidate of the Democratic
party at the ensuing Presidential election
The result has been brought about by The
votes of those who, having been ever OF
the Democratic Republican school, voted
for Harrison and Tyler, as men Of the same
political faith and who gladly and with
characteristic honesty, most heartily confirm the
acts of the President-his vetoes no less than
the measures of his recommendations being
in full unison with their feelings, and in conso
nance with the very views which caused them
to support him when candidate brought for.
ward by the Wing party. If that party is de-
ceved in finding a Republican whom power
cannot corrupt, no such feeling obtains among
his Democratic friends-to these he has realized
everything, and more than everything they had
anticipated from a life devoted to their princi
plies and the best interests of beloved country.

me as ever, ours.

THE SCOTT FLAG

The New Orleans Bee, strenuous advocate of
Clay for the Presidency, and Scott for the Vice Pre-
sldency, has had the names of these two gentlemen
at the head of the paper for some months mast.
SCOTS name is now stricken from the roll in conse
quence of the unequivocal declaration Of General
Scott that he will under circumstance consent to
serve as Vice President" Some of the papers have
suggested the name of General Gaines in the place
of that of Scott We think they stand greatly in

of what is to follow in the Presidential election.
