 PARTY ORGANIZATION

the democratic party was never more clearly manifested than in our late election in this State The democrats went to battle without concert of movement, and without the usual means incident upon political struggles, and their efforts were consequently like those ot an ill-provided, undisciplined force, against a thorough drilled and well appointed army We have already published an article from the Richmond Enquirer, accompanied by re- marks of our own, intended to set before ouI friends the positive necessity of speedy and thorough organization of the democratic party of the city and State and with the view ol enforcing its importance upon their minds we make the following extract from an article from the Globe, upon the same subject:
 ''The opponents of the popular cause are efes; where urging on their rank and file a renewal of all the eXpedients and devices ol their hard-cider campaign. The nucleus oi the universal organization they contemplate is already formed in every village and town ship, and city ward, under the name of Ciay clubs. Their presses everywhere speak out and urge this sort of preliminary organization They form a roll of the members within cer- tain boundaries, and this census is intended to embrace every man who can be induced to promise his suffrage to Mir. Clay and fed eTalism in the next election; and this achieves the great point ill organization. In every club district in the Union, the leading and ac- tive agents and partizans will have every name which they can hope to place to account on the polls, and they will know every man to whom the duty can be assigned of bringing the recruits to the polls; and this is the great secret of the power of organization. It is to know where, upon whom, and by whom to operate. When a party has not all exact Knowledge of the real state of its forces when efficient men in neighborhoods have no clear and precise knowledge of the senti- ments and purposes of those around them, they know not whom 1t will be necessary to arouse from supineness, on whose assistance to rely, or in what way to make serviceable to their cause the zeal and energy which they would willingly devote to 1t. There never was time when the democracy of the Union would not have been secure of an easy tri- umph, if one of it's ardent, faithful, willing votaries in each neighborhood had been in possession of the necessary knowledge to act efficiently within it, and had been impress sed with the confidence that some one in eve ry other neighborhood throughout the coun- try had the same means of exerting useful influence, and was acting in concert with him. When friend of great cause, who is con- scious that its success depends on some mil lions of voters, feels that his limited sphere of action will not enable him to summon more than some ten voters to the polls, he will consider the effort useless, unless 1t is assigned to him as duty, and he is made sensible that others acting in concert with hlm are engaged, within the respective pre- emts assigned them, in arousing the supne voters to attend the polls. We believe that the democratic voters absent from the polls in lS4O-and absent from the want of concert and organization, and the spirit and energy they beget-wenld have turned the scale a. gainst all the pipelaying corruption, the gross impostures, the foul management, and false returns of coonery. While this party are again preparing to avail themselves of tho- rough organization to operate the more eff fectually in the disreputable and demoralizing mode before adopted by them, we trust that the democracy will not be so wanting to it's honest cause as to be incapable of any syste- matic and well-directed effort i, it's support 5
 Consisicncy-The Coos County Demo- crat, m chapter upon the consistency of the whigs, draws the following graphic sketch of their virgin heifern candidate for the Presi- dency:
 "Our New England whigs profess to have m,onopoly of all the morality of the land, and yet support Mr. Clay for the highest of nee m the country. They detest duellists, ana yet are burning with zeal to give their votes to a dnellis. and the prompter and ori- g,na'of ,iH ol the very duel in which Jonathan that democrats should think of electino an in-
