and packed conventions The ultra ptess has
already lost IFS power, Two.Lhirds of the po-
lilical journals in America were pledged TO Mr'
Clay, and yet they could not arrest the series oil
disasters which so lately crushed him. Their
falsehoods and vituperalons are scattered harm
less on. the winds, like autumnal leaves In
tempest Old party machinery, old orsaniza'
tons, and old politicians, (save the pure old
Republicans) will be broken up, thrown ASIDE
and forgotten in the New ERA that is dawn'ng
upon Us.
These things must surely come 10 pass, II The
ultra leaders combine against the People. IL
may not yet be 100 late for those who have en-
barked in the fearful enterprise TO pause, reflect
and desist. II is not an unanimous movement
But few of the ultra leaders have made an open
demonstration of hostility. For her o~n
good, flor ourselves we care not which IS done,
so the country prosrers,) we would advise them
TO study only how they may best promote the
interests of their country, and not merely now
10 pull down one President and set up another,
phen The People do not desire change.
| The Globe and Mr.. Benton, who were but
yesterday, not only on their backs, but IN nau-
seous ditch, (and would have remained in that
condition had il not been for the People and the
Presdent) now exclaim: Why should the
Democratic party take this 4 administration on
It's shoulders z" Such is the language Of men
who but yesterday whned like whipped dogs,
and were willing, while down, to lick the very
| feet that kicked themI The people and the
President extricated them from THEN miserable
condition And now, forsooth, they have The
gratitude to term the Presidents annual Mes
sage (Which, out of the cities, is received with
universal favor) " British Message"
| If the ultra leaders Of The Democratic party
see 10 suffer the Globe and Mr.. Benton TO
lead them by the nose, OF course we cannot
prevent it, We would if we could, for their
own sake, but we cannot We can only say
that the People will deride them, and laugh at
their folly. We can say, further that the asprant
10 the Presidency, who puts his faith in The
Globe and Mr.. Benton, and sanctions their hos
llty TO the present Administration, is doom
ed man. He ma contrive TO put in operation
some of the old party machinery, but the public
opinion, thus MANUFACTURED, will be rejected
| by the People. The People will have neither
part nor oi in his caucuses or conventions.
To the PEOPLE, TO the REPUBLICANS
of the country, must be contided the destiny of
our great nation. The ultra politicians will be
finally and forever overlhrown in the next great
contest. We will resume the subject again.
