aion from each Wariot The city of New York.
Whether they are picked men or not, We DO
moi know; a finer specimen Of human nature
more noble looking ncn-wilh counenances
beamng intelligence, honesty, honor and palri-
otism we have mol seen for many a day.
The banner (Which we hastily described yes
,crGay. and which VIC have moi time now TO more
particularly notice. is a most magnificent one
appropriate in design, and executed in master
IL manner. Ii viii be presented tonight n, Mo
nument Square, when the Democracy OF Bali

Some Wing SET about a report Yesterday, that
the Democrats had fabricated 4 ticket. embracing
The names OF our Democratic Electors. but headed
with Clay and Frelinghuysen, TO take in the un-
waiy. There is no; syllable of truth in the sIo-
rv. The Democrats are utterly incapable oil so
vile trick. Rewards were offered By several
Democrats for The production OF such ticket,
but none could be produced We caution the
Democrats. and the Wings too, against lending
an ear 10 such gross mposilions.

exceeds twenty-five per cent Many Of these companies

capital invested in the railroads Of Great Britain is i'm

Great Britain has found investment in many Of the rail-
