Extra Session for the Bill. Benton, who seems
10 De waited on discourse, "by airs from HE'LL"
has had the holiness and address to get his
measure into the Senate, and into the House
much worse one.
Ii New York will now come forth in her
might II her citizens will take part for the in
terests of the countless thousands, who have
right TO liue as we'll as we, the repeal NAV be
stopped. Let no false deiicacy have any
weight. II is no crime to be unfortunate,
though 1t is now attempted to be made such.
1t is time for the North 10 calculate the value
of the Union, if it is to lie sacrificed to the idle
whims, or foolish fckIeness of other sections.
One hope remains if all others are lost. IT is
THE VETO Power, and thank God for it.

ANOTHER DRoP.-Th3 NewYOrk Com

slightly aIlevated in one particular -
''That old coon" is dead. Posiuvely,un-
equIvocally, and categorcalIy dead; and
we hope we shall never again hear
any more of such childish foole>
ry."
But It will be long time before the
Colonel and his friends will hear the last
Of this "childish foolery." The coon may
be dead and buried, but still, until the
present generation, at least, shall have
left the stage, the memory of the animal
and of his propensities will be indelbIy
associated with The party that adopted
him as the emblem and type Of its prin.
ciples, and who have not scrupled to call
themselves by his name. We are not
sure that history itself will not have to
designate the present whig party as the
coon skin party, and their principles as
Raccoon whiggery.-AIb. Arg.

souTH CARoLINA ELECTION.

The right kind of State. In South
Carolina, not one solitary whig has been
electe To theLeglslature on party grounds
one whig has bean elected however, on
other grounds. He ought to be made
Speaker Of the House to which he has
been elected. The Charleston Mercury
of the 22d, remarks:
Such singular unanimiiy has pervaded
oar State, that we have scarcely thought
il worth while to say any thing about the
subject. 1t is we'll TO remark. however
that in very few counties has anything
like a whig party appeared even, and
that wherever there has been contest,
the democrats have been triumphant
One Wing has been elected to the Legis.
lature, in Columbia, not IN party strug-
gle, and we understand moi on party
grounds. In PendIeton, where alone they
had any claims to party strength, the mas
jority against them is decisive.

THE SOBER SECOND THOUGHT.

THE SOBER SECOND THOUGHT.
But two years ago, federalism achievt
ed such victory over the true republi.
can principles advocated by the dem"c.
racy Of the country ,and by such means as
to induce many patriotic Citizens to doubt
the stability of our free Institutions
But the very means that the federalss
used in 1910, contained the seeds OF their
own destruction. The discordant mate.
rails brought together to overthrow the
Democratic administration, by false
promises, false avowals, and concealment
oftheir odious principles, had no sooner
accomplished tho banishment oil their
common foe, than they were deprived of
their cohesive force, and thOir various and
hideous forms exposed themselves to the
goze Of deceived peoplS; and a year
and halfof whig dominancy has con
vrncSd the people that they had elevated
to power, not party having in view the
