BRlrLrNr DEMOCRATIC TRIuMPH!--The Democrats
Of Detroit achieved glorious victor or the 4h inst, in
the election of Jno r. Williams as mayor, by 144 ma
jory. The whg majority, last spring for Mayor was
upwards oI 300! The Detroit Free Press says:
"What makes this splendid victory of more than Or
dinary political importance is the fact that the wings
anticipating whig triumph and determined to gain it.
had nominaedthe Editor and Proprietor of the Advert
ser-the Clay whig organ at the Capitol as their cand
date for mayor SO that they could announce his election
as great Clay victory, and send abroad as herald
of what they intended to do in the city at the Presden
tia election.
"The whole number Of votes polled is nearly or quite
l6O0being more than were ever before cast in the city
and about 400 more than were ever before given at
charter election This Unprecedented vote grew out OF
the determination of the wings to have Clay victory
and an equally firm determination OF the Democrats
that they should not have it."

From the Montgomery Ledger.

WHAT DID A WHIG CONGRESS DO?
During the Presidential campaign in l640 the wings
held out great inducements for the people to support the
whig candidates for Congress and President and many
were deceivedby these very promises and aided in their
election. Let us therefore take peep through the
screen. and see how they fulfilled their promises.
The first blessing of a Wing Congress was the crea-
ton of A National Debt Of about Twenty Millions of
Dollars.
Another blessing was the passage OF the Bankrupt
Lac but which repealed again so soon as the great
specuators and stock jobbers he'd paid off their debts
They appropriated upwards OF Sir thousand dollars al
to furnish the Presidents House, which they stated du
ring the election campagr1o be equaito KinSly Pa
lace
They appropriated the Widow of Gen. HARRISON,
Twenty five thousand dollars fog one months SER
vice
The appropriation and expenditure for the first year
of Wing administration was upwards OF Thrty-three'
Millions of Doars--thrteen or fourteen millions more
than Mr. Van Buren's administration cost.
And this WHIG ECONOMY Call you this full
filling their promises! Economy with vengeance tn
deed.
The people see the great necessity ofa change OF ru-
ers again. and are determined to be no longer humbug-
ged Mr. Van Buren was hurled from power and place
