Coon ADvicE.-To dsaftect wings in
old Nassachnsse cts, and every where Mr.
Webster says, IN the spirit of wise sacri
tlce and just patrotism:
"OY ercome your dlssatsfaction; relin
qnish your preferences; forget your disap
polntmenl, and strike ore united blow for
maintenance Of the wing cause aud the
coed OF the couatry.'
Tho New York Tribune, speaking of the re-
suit ofthe Pennsy lsania election says
This s an astounding Revolution The par
~ which lives on It's empty prof ssions of Dem
ocracv has never been beaten in The State con-
test preceding 4 Presidential Election Even
when Gen Harrison carried the State, in the
tornado OF lSiO, his friends were beaten nearly
5000 in the preceding State election. William
Hester, who was not supported by the larger
portion of the Democracy, was chosen Governor
over Findlay in 1870 by close vote, and Joseph
Ritncr was elected in lSSj--in each case through
u serious sChsm in the ranks Of the so. ca led DE
, mocracy; out a Governor chosen in even handed
opposition to what vaunts itself the lDemocra,c
party has not before occurred during the last for
,y yearG."
Again tho Tribune says,
"Gov. johnson is elected, and the whole as
poet Of affairs chmneed. Punnsy lvlna has taken
her place at the head Of the Wing array--thc

social festival, devoted alike to !haGksgiy-
inc, rejoicing and The harmonious meeting

died twenty years before On being re-
preached with deceit. the old sqnaw said
tina, che knew her papoosc hal been lying
in the grave twenty years, BIT, with fresh
