q NE HERCULES CONTRA DUos +"

The IDtel,igencer of this morning gives up
The contest, and admits very reluctantly that
Mr. CLAY has been defeated by the ''l Dung
Hickory so much sneered at for the impotence
imputed TO him By the Clay presses. The In
telligencer admits this, provided several STATES
not vet heard from, which the Wings have mol
claimed, should, nevertheless, go for MIR. Ciay I;
but the editor does not hesitate TO say that such
an occurrence is highly improbable, and that II
would be "hoping against nope" TO indulge any
such expectation.
The Intelligencer attributes the loss OF New
York 10 the course of the "Abolluonists," and
fanatics whom il now lashes with seeming
savage delight. 1t terms their periInaclous ad-
berence 10 their own candidate, Birney, ga CO.
opera,on with the Republican party" We
never sent "cousin" of Colonel Polk 10 New
York, to preach Abolition doctrines, and to ex-
hort them TO support his slave-holding 'cousin."
We never employed the Websters, Changers,
Giddingses, Adamses, and Greelys OF our party
10 negotiate a coalition with the Abolltionlsts
We never asked their support. On the con-
,rary, we declared, on good authority, we fancy,
not six weeks ago, that Colonel Polk and his
friends were opposed 10 all the notions OF the
Abolition party, and would certainly continue
adverse to their projects. And, at the same
time, we were quite pointed in our advice 10
them TO support A." then own candidate" they
did support their own candidate, and because
they did il, they are charged by the lntelligen-
Ger with cooperating with the Democracy!
The Intelligencer must search Tor other
causes TO which to attribute the Wing defeat IN
New York We presume the true cause was
identical in Maine, New York, Pennsylvania,
and Virginia The disatfected legion OF old
Jackson men came back to the party on the no.
mnation of Col. Polk under the dssurdnce
that his elecatton 10 po,oer agould put period
10 all Clique dicfdtion. That assurance Will be
redeemed. II is tue the body oil men that
have returned TO the Republican fold In the
above named States, welded their influence IN
1S4o sunr~-sG,ily against sIr. ' an Buren,, in all
Of them but ona Mr.. Tglgt,s sentiments were
and so were they; and they were prepared to
support him at all hazards. But the withdrawal
of Mr.. Tyler; the intolerance of MIR. Clay's or
gaus, to say nothing of his "heresles"; and,
finally, the determination on the part OF Col.
Polk to be The PRESIDENT, if elected, rather
than the aulomslon of diclatorlal Club-at
once reused and united the party to which we
allude, and produced an adamantlne determine
ton on their part to puta final end, by one terri
bic blow, at once to the hopes and the existence
itself of Federal Whiggery.

this disappointment from The excited state oil the

THE LAST NAIL IN THE COON'S COFFIN

We expect TO be able to announce in our next
that Georgia has gone for Colonel Polk, which,
with the other States given up by the Wings,
will settle the hash," beyond all dispute.
But whether Georgia has gone, as we feel
confident it will, for our candidate, or not. Our
readers may rest assured that we will have
enough of the doubtful" States yet to be heard
from, to carry in Colonel Polk by most trium-
plant majority. Our friends must admit that
hitherto we have not proved to be a ''false pro-

At the Congressional election held in October, the
Democrats carried the State by majority of 1900.
The Wing gain now is but 527 in the returns from

fore highly probable that the State has gone for Clay
to stay at home. General Harrison's majority was

MORE TREACHERY.h

1t would seem that the Wings have again
been the victims of " tfeachery.n They said
they were betrayed by Mr.. Tyler in 1871. They
now say they have been betrayed by the abo-
liton.rs in 1874. We presume they will per
secute the "Libeuy men" during the next four
years as they have d5s,e the President, with the
like success, to be Sc betrayed" by the ''Natv-
lists" in 1S4S.
The last New York Courier e Enquirer has
a long leading editorial, denouncing the per6dy
of the abolitionists, of which the following is
the closing sentence:
ave give them the abolitionistsl Joy of
their position, and respectfully hand them over
10 The contempt Of the enemy they have served,
and the detcstation Of those they have so basely
betrayed"
Are the Wings abotionists else how could
they be betrayed?
