\ II the country is given over 10 loco
iocois'n, ns we suppose now there eau
be liile doubt il is, how hard case il Is
with such of our gallant Wing brethren
as have nobly struggled for victory, and
gained it against tie most desperate el-
forts that ever marked political cam
pnign, and amidst more dlscouragemen,s
and more sinister Influences, more
iroacbeiy of friends and more fraud aud
nnfairness of foes than ever before threw
their cmbnrrassmenls in the way ol VIC
tory. How bitterly must our friends in
Connecticut and Rhode Island, IN New
Jersey, Mary iaud and Ohio, feel in see
Ing the fnls of their glorious triumph
snaichrd from them, and victory ncuira-
llZcd and rendered useless by "one fell
swoop" in New York and what will
give unwon,ed po'gnancy To their mori-
| ticatIon, this shameful and most disas-
lrous result has been brought about by
men protesting friendship for the same
! objects for which cur brethren have been
conrcnding. In Pennsylvania the tarlil
! men have gone against them on one hand
| while the Wing AhulItionisis of New
York have gone against them on the
! other. By the votes of those most deep
! " interested in the protection Of domcs.
! tic industry, Polk has carried Pennsyl-
| vaEia, and the very men who have been

has been used. To have been cheated
