RICH, VERY.

Speaking Of the Maryland election, the Globe
of Thursday evening, before the news from that
State had been received, says
Coons and coonskins will be dog cheap the
balance of Of this hunt for the Presidency. The
Mill-boy of the Slashes, and his travelling COM
panions, the Buckeye blacksmith and the
Kentucky pump-maker,' who are. all now IN
New Orleans, speaking and singing, as we see
by the papers, had better come on here and Try
to raise the spirits of their compeers hereabouts.
+" We would not be surprised if the editors OF
the Mtelligencer were to shout victory! veto
ry! in their paper of tomorrow. They sound
the same notes whether their party meets with
success or defeat. We have sometimes thought
that the editors Of the Intelligencer did not know
enough about the strength of parties in the diff
ferent sections OF the country, to know when the
elections were adverse to the Wings. They al
ways shout when they get majority IN dis
trict, no matter if it has been Federal from time
iJumemorial not seeming to know that their
party may carry district, and be badly beaten
nevertheless, as this election in Baltimore proves.
We wonder if the editors of the lntelligencer
have yet found out that the election is ADVERSE
to the Wings How is it, Mr.. Blair? Is it
fact that the people of Maryland have adopted
the general ticket system, and elected members

MANUFACTURING IN SoUTH CARoLINA.--We
copied short time since, from paper published
in the interior paragraph stating that an Eng
lish company had purchased a large body Of
land, situated on Savannah river above Augusta,
with the intention of erecting manufacturing
establishment upon large scale. We had
some doubts at thestime of the correctness Of the
statement, but it is fully confirmed by letter
which we have since seen from gentleman of
high standing in the upper part Of the State of
South Carolina, who, in writing to his correspon-
dent in Charleston, says do not know wheth-
er have before stated that Mr.. James Edward
Calhoun has sold his lands, in Abbevle district,
to an English manufacturing company, for $780,
600; it is said they WELD capital of many
to this countrv-so much for the tariff"

A CAUTION.
The Globe of Thursday, says /:

The Globe of Thursday, says
eve think it proper to say to our friends, in
conclusion, that OUR VICTORY IN BALTI-
MORE is not SO OVERWHELMING, in our
opinion, as to authorize them to give up their or
ganizaton. On the contrary, we think they
should go on to organize as though they had been
defeated SO that they may be able at the coming
election, to kill whiggery so dead that it will not
trouble the democratic party again during the
nineteenth century. Whiggery, at best, is worse
than monarchy, and but little better than anarchy"
Do you REALLY think Mr.. Blair, that your vic
tory is NOT SO OVERWHELMINGLY as to au-
thorize your party to give up their organization
do tell" And do you really intend "to kill
whiggery SO dead that it will not trouble the de-
mocratic party again during the nineteenth CEN
tury" "Oh my!' Have you heard the news
from Maryland, Mr.. Blair!

AT a late meeting of the Clay Club of Charles
ton, S. c., the Hon. B. Watkins Leigh, of Rich
mond, Va, was unanimously elected an honorary
member of the association, and committee was
appointed to advise him of the fact. In Mr.. Leghs
reply to the letter of the committee, after return
ing thanks for the honor conferred upon him, he
says:
according to all present appearances, the
election of Mr.. Clay TO the Presidency is almost
certain; and believing Gas do most conscen-
tiously) that the welfare of our whole Union de-
ponds upon the issue of the present contest of
parties, and that issue upon the result of the ap-
preaching Presidential election, you may be as
sured that am doing and shall do my part in the
contest to the uttermost of my poor ability. con-
slider the cause in which we are engaged the cause
of regular republican government, and the cleo
ton OF Mr.. Clay as the best means open to us for
accomplishing the success of that cause. You
honor me in calling him my friend; ! am most
certainly his friend: but if know my heart, the
earnest and anxious wish entertain to see him

from any personal considerations, but from pure

HENRY CLAY.-Isaac Hill, in late number of
his paper, has the following paragraph in relation
to Mr.. Clay:
"Kentucky, we believe, retains all her Senators
of the last fourteen years her great man, Henry
Clay, voluntarily retired after than ten years
conflict but, living, he infuses among his follow
ers and admirers an enthusiasm and devotion
which seem confident of giving him the highest
position in this Government. With many faults
with faults which no redeeming quality can atone
to some--this gentleman offsets popular and splen-
did talents, high and gallant bearing, devotion
to friends, and an indomitable perseverance in
any marked course, that give him more personal
influence in the political destnes of the country
than perhaps any other man living"

A number of years ago, the celebrated Joseph
Lancaster visited Washington, with view to ex-
plain his peculiar plan of instruction in common
schools. He delivered an address on the subject
in the Representatives Hall, in presence of many
members Of Congress, among whom was Henry
Clay, at that time Speaker of the House. This
gave rise to the following epgram, which was pub
Iished at the time in Baltimore paper. 1t is too
good to be wholly lost:-Boston Tour.

THE NEW MARYLAND LINE!
JOHN M. s. CAUSIN,
FRANCIS BREN GLE,
JOHN WETHERED,
JOHN P. KENNEDY,
DR.. J. A. PRESTON,
THOMAS A. SPENCE.

We received decisive returns last evening from
the third district, that John Wethered, the Wing
candidate was elected. Such victory as this
is not often gained, and when we regard the
place where 1t was obtained, the circumstances
under which il was won, and the consequences
of it upon the politics of the State, it is victory
over which the Wings can not too much rejoice.
So tremendous is it-so thorough change of
opinion does it demonstrate to have taken place
among people heretofore proverbial for fixed
ness, that even now, when the fact is proclaim
ed, and is placed beyond all doubt, the Locofocos
can scarcely realize it.
Baltimore county gone-Carroll county-How-
ard district lost, and three strong Locofoco wards
in the city Of Baltimore giving Wing major
against Free Trade-for Wing principles against
Locofocosm. It is, unquestionably, the most
brilliant political victory that our country has
vet had an example of.
The Second District also did wonders. We
hoped for the election Of Mr.. Brengle--we knew
he ought to be eected-but that he would carry
every county in the district, we did not venture
to believe. Here too the battle was on Wing
principles-the Tariff against Free Trade-our
own mechanics against foreign laborers
The First district, though not heard from in
full is known to have elected Wing by large
majority. So has the Sixth for there was no OPP
position to Mr.. Spence, because opposition would
have been vain.
The only district of which there is any doubt is
tile Fifth. We give all the returns we have re-
ceived; and repeat our opinion that DR. Preston
is elected.
This would give us an entire Wing delegation
at Washington in Congress-two Senators and
six Representatives
With such demonstration, Maryland may GER
tanly rest upon her honors.

THE OLD DOMINION WIDE AWAKE !
We want language properly to give expression
to the impression made on us by the late gather
ing of the Wings in Richmond We saw the
largest assemblages of the Wings during the me-
morable campaign of 1910, but not from one or
all of them did we derive more gratifying i'm
preston than from the Convention in Richmond
last week. Eight hundred Wing delegates in
council, in the depth of winter, and in the midst
! of the most rigorous season which we have expe-
rienced in this climate for ten years! Many of
| them were from the remoest bounds of the State,
and had to make their way to the rendezvous over
mountains of ice and along roads almost impassa-
BILE. But frost and snow melted before their fiery
zeal in the good cause. Difficulties which would
have been insurmountable by the lukewarm, were
but trifing obstacles in their way; and they have
afforded proof which must convince the most
sceptical that they have only to WILL success to
achieve it.
The delegates with whom we conversed brought
us glad tidings from every quarter OF the State.
Everywhere in the Old Dominion the true spirit
is alive, and if we cannot cut down the strength
of the enemy in their strongest holds, we shall
much diminish it. We have never heretofore Ell
Their felt or expressed much confidence that VirA
GINA would vote for Clay. But we now say un-
hesitatingly that she will BY looking at the vote
in the last Presidential election, it will be seen
that change of eight votes in each county and
town in Virginia in favor of the Wings will be
sufficient to carry the State for Clay. Cannot
this change be effected, by united, jealous, and
active party, battling against mutinous and dis
organized foe, who have nothing to promise the
people, in the event of their success, but what the
people have already spurned and repudiated! No
one who has seen what we have seen, and heard
what we have heard, can hesitate about promptly
| answering that Virginia will vote for Henry Clay
as surely as the day of election arrives
The Wing party in Virginia was never as tho
roughly organized as at present. Everything
that foresight can provide has been provided, and
it only remains for resolutely to carry out and
| execute the plan of the campaign. Let the eleH
tors and their assistants meet the adversary before
the people. Let Locofoco sophistry and misstate
ments be unmasked and exposed, and the prnci-
pies of the Wing party indicated wherever they
are assaulted. Let the Clubs disseminate informa-
ton among the people in the cheapest and most
attractive form. Let the ways and means of
bringing every Wing voter to the polls be provi-
ded, and we shall THIS SPRING give the enemy
foretaste of what we will do for them in the Au-
tumn. For our own part, we shall, in our hum
BILE sphere, give oursef up heart and soul to the
cause and nothing that our feeble abilities will
| warrant us in believing we CAN DO, will be left
