has been "Whig" State for twenty years
past, ~ UNIFORMLY ~ either Massachusetts,
or Kentucky. True, it has SO happened
upon some two or three occasions, that the
Democrats Of that State have, BY mere
chance-by bringing out the most popular
candidates, and when the full vote Of the
State ~ss not polled- succeeded in elect
ing a Governor; but whenever, heretofore,
the strength Of the respective parties Of the
State has been called out. the result has
been as above stated-the last test, in 1910,

to carry the State for whiggery, need not
be told to the intelligent reader. To have
lost Maryland, but four weeks before the
Presidential election, would have been to
have put an end to the contest u once, and
to have produced the withdrawal Of Mr.,
Clay. The efforts Of the "whips,m conse-

before remarked, almost superhuman.-
Money is stated to have been used for the
purpose with unparalleled profssion.-
The Globe Of the I'd instant, the day be-

in an early part oflast week that the wings
would not get more than 1000 majority
in the State; but on Saturday last letters
were received from Baltimore, stating tast
the wings had raised $50, 600, and We
hear Of no bets being taken BY our friends
afterwards. We have It from good author-
ity, that the wings Of Maryland have been
to Philadelphia after money; and we have
no doubt they succeeded in getting it,
They see that il Maryland gives way,
coonery is dead! dead!! deadM! and there

for Governor by barely 500 majority, a.
