Such would be the inevitable cOnse-

and TO such lraitoroas purposes are the
energies and effurts of the dough faced

The wings of Michigan, like those of
the rest of the Union are not politicians
by trade. neither do they make their liv-
ing by office hunting. they are content
to mind their own business. under a gov

when this RUE is violated hat they trouble
themselves about elections.

dive for the prize at the hazard Of his
neck. The present is an occasion that.
like 40, will call out Wing strength :
an occasion on which the democracy of
numbers. and not of sound will tell the
tale. The wings have those numbers,
and will in November next, as they did in
40, teach these Locoioco buzzards, tina,
their new tangled doctrine that "ihe bus

General Jackson gets into a quarrel
with his neighbor Dickinson at a cock
| fight or Horse race. A challenge en-
sues.& meeting takes place. Gen. j. re-
ceives Dckinsons fire, and then a, his leis
ure, deliberately shoots him down, and,
on being inquired of respecting the mat
ter, replies in the True spirit of Demon
! IL left the I'D scoundrel weltering
in his gore" According 10 Locofoco
ethcks. this is all right, it is delightful! !;
and the story is paraded with an air Of tri-
umph in the biography of Gen. j., and he
is not only made President, but that pious
organ the Free Press, gives US long
yarn about The sublime spectacle of his
devotional exercises, when visited by the
Demi Saint, b. F. Butler.
