THE NEW ADMINISTRATIONS.


The N. Y. Herald has an editorial OF some two
or three columns, foreshadowing the only course
cf action by which the Administrations Of General
Taylor can be sustained. Whether the Her
aid speaks "by authority" remains TO be SEEM
1t says:-
In the first place. there should be no removals
Of subordinate officers now in the service Of the
general government, for mere differences OF opiF,
ion on political matters. All changes ofthis kind
should be brought ABOUT in the natural way, viz:
by death or by resignation, %unftness for the dn-
tics OF Office, or by incaPacily to perform them.
Secondly, the several departments Of the govern
ment should be rcorG4lnized. The State depa ri.
ment shonId be divided into TO he called
the foreign, and the other the home department.
AS the State department. oflhe government now
exists, it is unwieldy and unmanag cable. This
is a measure OF reforml which should be adopted by
Congress at once, ana carried into effect.
Thirdly a retorm.in the financial laws.and ifs.
cal arrangements oftire government is loudly call
ed for. Il should embrace a modification Of the
tariff, so as to pay off as rapidly as possible the
public debt. The re. enact3ncnt Of the tariff cf
$40, is not, l%lewevef, needed by The interests Of
The county. That was a piece oflegislation cas-
ricd out for the especial benefit of a few manu-
Gacturers, who were not competent to manage
their own affa IRIS and, therefore. called uFon Con-
gress TO assist them 70 do SO. That az attempt
will be made to res,orA the schedule ofduties pass,
ed by Cougressi in thcyearl6l2, we have 90 doubt.
Indeed, its restoration. even at this early period,
and on the very day: ON WHICH Gen. Taylor WIS
elected. has been already urged by one of the
principal Wing journals in Philadelphia.

WHO'S 70 BE CHEATED2

In the North Gen. Taylor has receivedthe vote
Of the AboIitionists and Free Sellers, upon the
alleged ground that he will not veto the Will
mot Proviso. AT the South, the Wings have
ridiculed the idea that Gen. Taylor's Southern
feelings on this question should be even doubted
aud scarce ten days before the election, his friends
obtained from him a pledge that under no circum-
stances would he approve this odious measure
It is clear one section is to be cheated Time
will soon determine which. Breakers are ahead.
and we mush mistake, if TayloriSm will not soon
be in bad repute, either North or South. Equiro-
cation will no longer do, he rnust show his hand
nom. certain.

OUR DEFEAT.

The veteran editor Of the Union seems in no
wise daumted by our recent rererses. lie de-
clares himself ready and anxious for another bat
tie, conscious that the Democracy will again tri-
umph, and their principles stand vindic&edbetore
the nation =
Even if we are now defeated, the Democratic
party has seen darker days than thIs-1ays, too,
the gloon Of which only added Brightness TO the
spIendor of The then swiftly returning triumph =
So it was when the half military and halt baccla-
nalian tornado Of 1910 swept over the land. Let
us not forget the lesson OF that day. We then
stood frm-deCeatcd, not dauntcd; pres rated for
the moment, but sure to rise again with new pow
er. The 4he Old Dominion stood just as she
now stands-unshaken in her faith, i~Hspregnable
10 the assaults of faction, erect, triumphant, gio-
rious! But then, not as now, among the iour
great central States of the Union, Virginia stood
clone! Pennsylvania and Ohio did no, then stand
with her; and even the Empire State then faiter-
ed from her own son-the same nan who now
is doomed 10 behold her where she is, and to re-
member that he placed her there! But now,
shoulder to shoulder with Virginia stands Ohio /;
and with chipalrous South Carolina stand theStar
of the East and the Granite State 1t IS a glo-
rioas coniunction-fnll Of hope for our cause, and
a sure harbinger of a new day OF union and Civic
tory.
If it be true that we have lost, we must prepare
again to Eight and to win. The glorious standard
OF our party faith still waves over Us. its folds
are bright with great names OF the past and ofthe
present, and emblaZoned with the record of grand
achievements aud eternal truths. The eye otthc
people, if for a m~orrentdiverted, wills ere loRg turn
again toits guidance with trust and fioPe=
What though our masts be all blown overheard
Our anchors from their fast moorings dragged,
And half our sailors baried in The food
Yet lives our PILOT stlA."

Give him Wisconsin,, and his vote amounts 10
127-wanting 10 votes toclect him. Our Angus
ia bulletin OF yesterday morning bids us believe
Georgia is safe" We were almost afraid 10 IN.
Julre such a belief. But on that supposition,
Cas- would. have received 1877 votes-still want
ing 9 votes to elect him. Whence were theSe
votes to Gomez? We could only draw upon Ten
nessee, Louisiana. and Florida. The vote ri
Tennessee alone would have been sufficient 10
win the race; or Louisiana and Florida together
would work oHt the problem. Yet. considering
the Indications that have reached us from all
these States, we are free TO confess it is almost
hoping against hope to expect the vote of Ten
ncssee, or the votes OF Florida and Louisiana
De'Moivre, in the calculation of chances, would
scarcely admit the possibility Of such a combine
ton of chances in our favor; and although we did
not give up the ship. yet we confess the chances
of saving her appeared SO uncertain, that we conld
scarcely dare TO entertain any sanguine hope Of
success. Whilst there is life, however, there is
hope-particulariy- as e can scarcely believe
that there has been time sufficient to lear SO gen
orally from Tennessee as to Justify the triumphant
vote of 5000 or 5000 majority which has come
TO us by way OF Pittsburg. These were tie
views which suggested themselves yesterday;
but last night we received a telcgraphic despatch
from s.. NJ. Thompson, reluctantly giving the
State to Taylor and Fillmore. If this bulletin
prove correct, and North Carolina and Georgia
are both gone, we have no other way OF redeerh-
is9 the fortune of the day but by the improbable
sNppoSition that VIC might carry all the votes OF
Tennessee, Louisiaua. and Florida.
We assume, therefore, for the sake OF the arga-
ment, as well as on account of tho weight of lie
Feturns themselves, that General Zachary Taylor
has been elected President of The United States.
In announcing this conclusion, we cannot, Of
course. conceal our disappointment and our re-
gtet. Our friends in various States have been
mistaken in their calculations. They have dc.
'ceived. us aud we have deceived Others. Tic.
Wings owe their triumph, IL. fact, to a secret ard
effective system of Organization, which has de-.
scended to private and domiciliary visits; Whit
the DEMOCRATS, conEdia9 too much in their
strength, have not exerled the necessary energy
TO counteract their efElrts. II is not to be con-
eealed. too, that they had that military ground.

FREE SOIL.


In commenting on the election of Gen. TAY-
LoR, the Philadelphia Republic, "a Free Soil pa
peru says:
SIN one point Of view we may regard the re-
suit as a victory for our cause. Taylor willowe
his election TO the solemn and oft-rePeated decla-
tions of his leading. supporters at the North that
he would not veto the Wlmot Pfoviso. With
oat. these assurances his election would have been
absolutely impossible. The next Congress will
be largely wing, and the party, or at least the
nostherR portion of il, is pledged to prevent by
adequate Legislation the establishment of slavery
in the new territories. If the southern wings go
against the measure, as most os them doubtless
will, there are northern democrats enough to se-
cure its passage and then let Taylor veto Il If
he n Such an act on his part would array
against himithe great majority of those whose
votes elected him, and produce a moral convul-
sion which would prove a lesson TO tradisg poll
tfcians in all time to come. }
The free sell party, though defeated in the
vulgar senseTof the word, has done a glorious
work, for which posterity will renderit i~faraurtal
honor. Its mission Is not ended. The public
sentiment IL has awakened musthekept alive and
vigorous during tie next four years: nay more,
1t must be made to grow and expand until free
dom and right shall gain q final victory over sla-
very and wrong. and liberty shall be proclaimed
