OLD RUNNERS.


One ticket, one effort one pull, one destiny, now
await the heretofore scattered and divided ele-
ments Of the democracy. This is bad news for
the wing cabinet at Washington, and to the wings
throughout The country; but fate is fate, destiny
destiny, justice is justice, cheats cheats, rogu2s
are roeues, honest honest men, and every
one will get his deserts before the day of Judgment
How was this done Let's be Snowman, and
lift the curtain.
This not unexpected reunion or the democracy
has been strongly urged on the barnburners in the
form which il has taken, by that magnifc cent chap,
who may be calledthe grandson of York va Sc
cond edition Of the " little magician but, ulder
cur culture, greatly improved and enlarged Ia sta
fure, and ampl6ed nightly intellect generosity,
wit, hberaliy, and real talent. We execrEte and
ahomipste old Van Buren,, of Undertook, as one
Of the most selfish and narrow minded politicians
that The serpent ever permitted to wander round
and peep into the garden Of Eden but we admire
and pahonize John Van Buren,, as bud Of better
bush /; ard since he has been taken under our pa
fronsce, he haF, understand, increased one inch
in stature, and one inch and half in downright
bard fat on the nbs. We say nothing OF his INTEL
lcct and power, HIS wit and IMAGINATION, for they,
OF course, must increase, pari pass,,, with any
yroftgs Of ours.
In this important union, coalition, bargain OF
coming together of the hunkers and barnburners,
there may be something said about sacrifice Of
principle, the slavery question bolted as regards
our territories, end various other matters that have
bat little force weight, when the actual spoils
ihe very Fat Of the land, are IN prospect. There
can be doubt boa ever, that this reunion Of the
democracy of New York, on new and modified
platform. composed of equal number of planks
imported from Buffalo and Buukun, will be the
platform on which the democracy Of the whole
korthem States wIll hereafter proceed into action,
aHd into the field, Tor the great prize of 1859 The
SEPARATE orgasization ~ the free soil party ~
gone for ever. You can't make barrel hold -four
