DEAR Sin The great question, which has
puzzled the wings for the last six months, "WnO
m JAMES X. PoLK?" is at last answered. New
York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, and other
States have set that vsred question at rest, and
we presume the Farmer Of Ashland has ere this
been informed OF the meaning Of that off repeat
ed word "LOeOfocOism." Will il bea standing
word in the Wing OF Coon Dictionary hereafter?
The people have divided the wheat from the
chaf-truth from eFror-and shown that the
most plausible fallacieS ever urged and upheld
by some Of the greatest men and minds OF the
age cannot bewilder, or lead astray, the sound
sober thought, the real common sense, of the
honest, intelligent, highminded agriculturalsts
aud yeOmanry Of the county, We are juStly
proud, and feel deep glow Of ezultatiOn at the
glorious termination Of the efforts Of democracy
throughout the country. We, however, use our
victory with moderation and quietness; ut the
same time is il not expecting too much of the
Democratic party, that after the Sneers, taunts.
revilings and Billingsgate language they have re-
ceived and experienced from the Wings during
the campaign, that they should forbear from ex-
pressing their feelings Of joy and exultatiOn, in
their own way, and in their own manner; in
fact, in every way, manner, and method that
human art or ingenuity could devise. Look at
the shouts of triumph-ths huzzas for Clay and
Frelinghuysen, that filled the streets of this city
the firing OfcannOn-the torch Cor Blue Light
procession, and other signs, and manifestations
Of rejoicing; and the proud defiance, evinced on
the night Of the recent election in this city by
our opponents when they found they had carried
the City for Clay by majority Of Ala vOtes.-
Whut vyonld have been the feelings or situation
Of the Democrats at this tiuas--what would, they
not have been obliged to have submitted 10, IL
Clayism had conquered, instead Of being defeat
ed? "Bah!" talk not 70 me of moderation or
humility ! erased it from my vocabulary during
the campaign Of 1910. My feelings Of joy and
qualification are too deep to give way to the milk
aud watet disposition of some Of our friends, and
the WHITE FEATHER Of our opponents
AS further evidence Of. the disposition Of the
wing party towards us, il may be well enough to
remark, that they considered, on Friday last the
election of Mr.. Clay, as certain-as settled and
to be in time, or to take time by the forclock,
Roll was made of all the Office holders under the
General Government, in this city, and every
DEMOCRAT MARKED FOR PRESCRIPTION. I'll
this disposition was evinced in the green tree,
what might not we have expected in. the Dry
Tree.
The latest election news we have to-day, isl
from Michigan-it has elected the Polk and
Dallas electoral ticket BY majority supposed Of
5000, and we begin to hear little democratic
Thunder from the interior Of Alabama, lit rolls
along, 5000, 7, 600, 10000, and perhaps it may
reach $4,000 or more majority for Polk. From
New York his entire majority will be over 5000;
andreturns from our own State, Louisiana, give
Polk 9O7 majority.
The excitement from the elections returns, is
fast passing away, and Business is about resu.
ming it's wOnted equanimity. The Rain Storm
for the past three days has somewhat iuterCered
with extensive operations in Cotton; the market
for that article does not evince much animation,
particularly when the heavystOck on sale is taken
into confederation. The sales for the past FIVE
days only reach about 5000 bales at a small diff
ference in price in favor of buyers, In other
articles fproduce there is the same inactivity,
except MolasseS, which is brisk of sale on the
LeVee at 9OA 9l4 cts. Flour dull, and the b
