THE DEMOCRACY.

The Democrats, if their professions are to be
believed, are the most thorough and sincere ha-
haters of anything appertaining to Aristocracy
upon earth. We were therefore not little
amused in reading the Spirits, inflated account
of the late Democratic Festival in Jefferson, to
find the names Of E. Louis Lowe, N. Carroll
Mason, G. Read Riddle, &C., g., as the prom
inent orators of the occasion The common
place name of James M. Mason figured but
poorly in such category In old England,
when of the daughters of proud family, in
consideration of the creature comforts to be de-
rived from a union with wealthy 'burgher, I"
marries a Jenkins, Simpkens or Wilkens, the
descendants of this convenient alliance in order
to perpetuate the remembrance of their aristo-
cratic descent adopt the maiden surname of the
mother as their own. Thus we have A. Russell
Jones', B. Howard Pitts, and E. Lytton Bull
wer's in abundance. Why affected city clerks and
drummers should adoptihis custom, iscvident from
the fact that the heroes Of eighteen-penny ro-
mances are always Distinguished in this way
But we really should have supposed, that this
aping of aristocracy would have been an abomi-
nation to the Democratic leaders,

gan, "There goes one" 'sthere goes two," "there
goes three" 'sihere goes old Eve" s'tbere goes

TEE VOTE or VIRGINIA.

The Washington Union in labored article
endeavors to convince its Old Hunker readers
that Cass and Butler win really be elected BY
way OF assuring them that Ohio will vote for
Cass, he tells them that she ''is as safe for the
Democracy" meaning the Old Hunkers, 'as
Virginia, New Hampshire or Michigan" =
Who told you old gentleman that Virginia is
safe for your candidates. From the lights now
before us, as your old favorite Matty used to say,
we are not prepared to say that we consider the
Old Dominion safe for Cass and Butler. We are
ao4 as sure of her as we are of the Wing States
of Ohio, Massachusetts, and Kentucky, but this
we do say in all sincerity, that if she does not
cast her vote for Gen. Taylor, it will be the
fault of the Wings.
