THE FLAG-THE CAUSE-AND THE MAN
OF THE DEMOCRACY.
AIR- Old Dan Tucker
Our fag upon the breeze we fling,
And rally round il while we sing,
And the coons will find it is no joke,
To win the stakes from James Il. Polk
cuoRus-Then "git out of The way," the people tell
They are bound all round for Polk and
Dallas.
Come one come ALL come hand in hand,
The unbroken Democratic band;
Frota North to South the cause unites,
The good old cause of !" Equal Rights"
Then " git out of the way" &c.
The Right Of Suffrage" let it be,
The common privilege of the free,
And down with the inYidious scheme,
That property should reign supreme.
Then " git out of The way" &c.
The farmer turning up the SOIL -
The laborer at his daily toll,
In the Democratic charter stand
Among the first born in the land.
Then " git out of the way" &c.
And he that comes across the sea,
1Totaste the blessings of :he free,
On democrats alone depend,
Fer he learns right soon who are his friends.
Then git out of the way" &c.
The Natives" who disgraced the name,
In burning churches to their shame,
Nav " shuffle and cut" for Harry Clay,
But the game of brag won't take to day.
Then "git out of the way" &c.

PRESIDENTIAL STATISTICS.

The imagination is still on the wing for future
evenls-and many man, and many boy even,
is busly employed with paper and pencil in csti-
mating the results and interpreting the DEGREES of
fate. We have no new calculations TO submit TO
our readers this morning unless we introduce
North Carolina as new element in The compost
tion We attempted TO show in yesterdays pa
per that we might even dispense with Ohio and
New York, and still elect Mr.. Polk, provided
him. These States might run uphis vote 10 1875
more than is necessary to e;e out a maJolity.-
But five count upon North Carolina, (accordns
to the runors which reached us Yesterday then
we NAV elect Mr. Polk without Indiana, or with
out Tennessee Without the former, hc would
have l42, and without Tennessee, lil. But of
course, il is necessary for us to receive the votes
ot-Maine 9-Ncw Hampshire G-PennSyl-
vania 2G-Virginia l7-Souih Carolina 3
Georgia l0-Alabama 9-AIi sissippi Gar
kansas 3-Missouri Illinois 9-Mchigan 3
Louisiana G-and either Tennessee or Indiana;
along with North Carolina.
But lei us throw away the pencil ourselves,
and draw upon the following statement from the
last Charleston Mercury of Monday last:
THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION-SPE-
CULATIONS.
"The choice of Electors OF President and Vice
President took place on Friday last, in The great
States of Ohio and Pennsylvania, having together
40 votes To-day the election is held in the States
of New Hampshire, q votes; Rhode Island 4, Con-
nectcu, q, Maryland s, Virginia II, North Caro-
lima II. Georgia 10. Kentucky -, Indiana IL, H.
linois 9, Missouri :, Mississippi 8, Arkansas ),
Michigan 5-in all ll6. Add Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania 40, total lG5, which is a large majority OF
the electoral college. Tomorrow the States OF
New York, Louisiana and Tennessee choose Elcc.
tors-together 80 The great event is therefore
upon us and can no longer be influenced by tie
labors OF editors, and orators, and therefore We do
not fear TO speculate upon The result, which, being
pretty doubtful, is proper food for speculation.
We present frs, table of the States which We
consider reasonably sure for the two candidates.
