The Arkansas banner., 1844-04-17

I for your suffrages. You know the man-he has stood at your side in many fierce encoun- ter with the destroying element. Give him your voices-"Man the brakes,o for as good fireman as ever touched an engine, and give him hearty support"
 So much for the mpor ,ance attached to the result of these elections by the Whgs and for the earnest ness, and violent urgency of their appeals. Now hear what the same paper says of Whig strength and how confidently it anticipates success
 "A strong pull, all together. and THE DAY IS OURS BEYOND THE REACH OF cHANcE!"
 Notwithstanding all this, on that very day, the proudly victorious.
 And yet, on the day gjter, find this some 7fopic crying out Pshaw Pshaw! it is matter of no con quence-the Democrats have no cause to exult or rejoice; although they have elected Democratic Mayor, and the Recorders and Councilmen in t,co Municipalities; whilst the Wings have succeeded in eecting the Recorder and Councmen, in only one. NOW HOOK ON THIS PICTUREr And sec the work of Democrat-hear how he calls the soldiers of Liberty and asks them to do their duty:
 From, the New Orleans Jefersonian. "To xouR TENTS, O ISRAELI"
 Democrats, en tomorrow, you are called upon to do your duty-your duty to your selves, your country, and your principles. Will you shrink from that duty' Will you suffer divisions and personal differences, to work you defeat? Will you stand by and witness it without doing your dutys If so, you will have abundant cause of regret, and self reproach. Then to the G5-POLLS-let all personal considerations be lost sight of, and let the great cause in which you are en- gagged animate you to calm, and determined action "Insist upon nothing but that which is clearly right, but submit to nothing that is wrong"
 And now listen to patriotic shout of victory, from the same valiant soldier. Where is the Demo- crat who will not respond to this glorious shout !- For ourself, and our subscribers, say-Nine times nine cheers for Democratic New O,leansiH
 GLORIOUS VICTORY! A@ MAYOR, TWO RECORDERS, A MAJORI- TY OF FOUR IN THE GENERAL COUNCIL, AND A MAJORITY OF TWO OUT OF THREE OF THE MUNICIPALITY COUNCILS.
 "Glory enough for one day :" the sober second thought of the people,"
 Notwithstanding all the efforts and boosting of the Wings, notwithstanding the rejection of the Elliott votes in the 2d Municipality, and also in portion of the first, "we have met the enemy and they are ours." The organized police and official influence of the Mayor, the influence of the Wings who elected their own managers of elections could not prevent democrats from asserting their rights. If the votes properly entitled had been received, we would have beaten them in the city one thousand potes, as it Is we have beaten them about two hundred.- We shall publish the official returns on to- morrow
 Who will say now that New Orleans is not democratic This time at least, the Wings have had it all their own way. They ap- pointed their own managers of the elections, they rejected the Elliot voters, and still we have beaten them.
 Thus we have succeeded in spite of all efforts to the contrary. They determined to defeat us but here ice are. Will you not brother Democrats, give us shout. They said before, that we had beaten them by fraud, and because of the Elliott votes. NOW, we have beaten them at their own game. New Orleans and Louisiana are safe. We are sure we will do better next time.
