Old Zack was to sweep every thing beso,o !.
and Equal Suffrage-that g clap-trap and bnn,-
as it was called by Whig Editors and Orato,,
to break down Democracy in all the strong Dsm,.a

humbug, . 'oas the Wings called it, is soon das
to become the peoples reality; and Gen, g.Iu
unpopularity and Fillmore's Aboitionism, Sa,l1
like mountains of lead upon the Wing cause
If predictions could have elected Mr.. Marlv !
Wing cause would have triumphed ; but predisf,'
especially Wing ones-are SO cheap and 80 49,

The Register of June oath said:

that Mr.. Manly is making great progress in We,,S
Carolina, and our friends there are confidently r..
lating upon largely increased Wing vote in that
region" .i - ~"
What was the answer? Gains of hundreds vpoD
hundreds rolled mp for Reid in w Western Carolina
On the same day the same paper said:
of their reprobation upon the War and the parv
which has brought it about, and plunged the Nation
In debt which century of unexampled prospedE
can hardly repay. They will reject Mr. Reid, aDd1
the disorganizing and Agrarian projects which h.I
attempting to foist upon them. In word Loe
Focoism with all its enormities, will be-,ueighsd
the balance, and found WANTING !''
The Register of July 18th exuIted in the fct6a
+" the boys''- meaning the North Carolina ydv,
teers-were I" coming home to vote.'' WE'LL some
of the Volunteces did 6" come home - to vote 6l
voted in Wayne, where Col. Reid made clear Vdr
of 900! Nine cheers, say we, for the boys
By November they will be good for one thOuSud
gain for Cass. and Butler.
As the approached the Register still ps
dicted. That paper of July 29tlf said:
eve have no fears for the result We feel col
tident that Charles Manly viii be chosen GOvernC
by an overwhelming majority, and that the Legsh
ture will be largely Whig."
On the fifth day of August-f,uO days qj1a th
eiection-the same paper said:
' We dismiss all unkind feelings towards hos
whom we have opposed. and enter upon the grea
campaign in favor of old Zach Taylor in the best pos
sible humor, feeling confident that like rcsuE b
that which has now occurred in North Carolina
awaits our labors in the Presidential struggle; viz
a complete UictOry orer Loco FocOism!"
We suppose, of course, that the Register is still
in the 'best possible humour,'' and that it "enteu
upon the great campaign in favor of old Zack Tsy
lor'' with renewed " confidence - and higher hopes
The Wings would do well to obtain from that PaPa
a promise or pledge to make no more predictions
for if it keeps on, it will beat ''oId Zack Taylor
this State at least FIVE thousand votes.
