Panic amongst the Whigs-Revicw or tho
Recent Elections.

A panic is very generally spreading amongst the
wings Of this neighborhood in relation to the pros.
poets Of Mr. Clay at the ensuing Presidential cleo
tion. This has been growing for some time past,
and has been occasioned chiefly by the sing ular,
obstinate, and impractcable position Of the ADOLF
ton party in the free States, but it has acquired
great degree of additional intensity from the re-
suit of the recent election in Maine, and begins to
affect the most reasonable, as well as the most san
guine, of the whig party. Yesterday, this growing
panic was increased by an article in the Journal of
Commerce, purportng to review the recent elections
and showing, by the peculiar construction of the
statistical tables presented, the extraordinary reac
ton in favor Of the locotoco party of nearly an
hundred thousand votes in twelve States during the
last year. Here Is the statement from the Journal
of Commerce.

NEW YORK HERALD.


The Great Democratic III, ting Last Night.
The meeting, or rather ths meetings, of the To-
colocos of this city last evening, indicate the ex-
istence of degree OF enthusiasm and unanimity
Ia that party, such of its leaders dreamed
OF few weeks ago. In numbers, enthusiasm and
unanlmlty, these great popular gatherings have
never been surpassed in this city, or probably in
any section of the Union, during any Of the con.
tests which have heretofore agitated the country.
The important feature of the occasion, was the
speech OF Mr.. Bancrot-of which we give tiil
and accurate report. AS the great historian Of his
country, the appearance OF Mr. Bancroft ia the pol
tcal arena here, naturally created great degree OF
interest, and his speech was stenr! TO with re-
markable attention. II is clear, candid and dis
passionate. Unlike some of the great prosy, two
hour speeches, which the party hacks Of both fac
tons are in the habit of nfctirg on meetings,
this short, pithy speech, will tel on the masses
Altogether this meeting adds another powerful in
cenive TO increased action ON the part Of the whigs
il furnishes another most impressive sdmoni'ion ~
the discreet and intelligent friends Of Mr. Clay, TO
hestir themselves in repairing the damage which
the cause of that iilustrous statesman has sus-
tanned at the hands Of the bungIiog, ignorant and
obstinate leaders, orators and editors who have
sadly mismanaged the canvass for him-here at
the North

IL will be perceived from the first table in this
series, that the democratic gain in fifteen States
-ping the present year, as compared with 1910,
amounts only to so 954, instead Of SO 3l6 as re-
presented by the Journal of Commerce. We do
not think that tho Journal OF Commerce makes a
lar comparison by contrasting the State election
Oh "a win the Presidential election of 40; be-
cause II 10 to be apprehended-and, indeed all
perlence shows that II 10 so--that the wings are
much more ready to come out in their strength in
tue PRESIDENTIAL election, than In an election
merely Tor State officers. The accuracy of this
view viii be confirmed by an inspection Of the
Presidential returns Tor the various years from SO
to 45, which we give in one OF the above tables
II is thus seen that the wings came out in their
full force IN 1887 and 1888, and also in the wear

during the present year, also, a great many have
stad away, unless, perhaps, the extraordinary in.
crease In the abolition OF the present wear as
compared with that Of 1910, may represent a Dor.
ton which Is thrown out OF account entirely BY
the Journal Of Commerce. II we were to add inc
