The TRUE CAUsE.-~Among the disastrous re-
suits Of the election of Polk and Dallas, herald
ed in the Wing newspapers, (says the New York
News,O we notice the total failure of a mer-
chant in Utica. This is 10 Roorback. The
gentleman did fail, and his failure uGs the re-
suit of the election Of Mr.. Polk. The much
wronged individual was a dry goods dealer, of
fair standing, doing business On a moderate cap
jtal and extensively on credit. He had bet, in
the aggregate, 1874, 900 on tie election Of Clay,
and failed within two weeks of the ele ction, for
$4,000. Query-Should his failure be charged
to the election Of Polk, or to the defect of Mr..
Clay?
WIG PRoMIses. If the Wings redeem all
their promises, we shall soon see rare sights.
Here is one of them:
0, Jimmy Polk! Q, Jimmy Polk!
NHCn you snail WIZ INC lgIlE,
The cons will all come homo 10 rocst,
Wen milk the hens at night!
The STARS shall fry like sassengers,
The sun shall melt away,
All nature turn a m
When you beat Harry Clay!

I~ty-lour}h year that Colonel Benton has occupied
the same chair in the Senate Chamber; and,
should he hold his Office until the end of The
new term for which lie has just been chosen, he
will Of course have been a Senator for thirty
years--nearly the third of century.
Too BAD.-The Louisville Journal says:-
"When the Lexington Locolocos, a few days a.
90, celebrated Mr.. Folks election, they took
heir big gun from the usual point of firing and
transposed it 10 the village of Ashland, so thai
evory discharge might be certain to reach the
ears Of Mr.. Clay"
TIE VIRGINIA SENAroRs,-Tho Governor Of
Virginia in his late message says:-"1he course
Of our Senators at the last session requires our
Legislature to instruct them. Mr.. Rivcs spoke
for Texas, and then voted against it. Mr.. Ar
cher supported it neither by his argument nor
his vote. This sovereign State is, therefore,
called upon to instruct her servants in their
duty"
or The friends of Mr.. Clay in Kentucky,
have determined 10 erect a column Of stone, to
be not less than one hundred feet in height, in
honor of their distinguished feilow-citizen.
Texan MINISTER TO FRANCE.-The ~Iionora-
bic Judge Terrell, of Texas, arrived at New

place of DR.. Ashbel Smith.
EF Mr.. "Roorback'' writes to the coon odi.
tors, from Michigan, that one of the electors Of
that State will vote for General Cass The
coons abound in pleasing illusions just now.
