The n II Patriot in giving the causes
Of the defeat Of the party in that state gives
The following as the chief cause Of this mel.
nncholy nilalr.-Thc Patriot says -
any other or all other Influences that have
conspil,d to dctlch strength enough from
the democratic party to leave It IN minor.
IT, has been the succ, ssiul 1ou to dIsul IN
to the minds Of n portion Of the people the

ed and cuif,d out of the party for daring 10
assert the nights Of the Nouh-hns now in
his turn his foot upon the nccks Of these
