That is very well. The democrats would not

Of the democratic officer a most illiberal spirit,
and partisan feeling, incompatible with the COM

The letter the Bulletin alludes to was a very
well gotten up affair, and doubtless will be sent
(by Gen. Davis) as letter Of recommendation to
the whig members of the Senate. Its ill-subdued
chuckle over the mobbing of the wing process

similarly placed, would not these things help hin
to democratic votes? Would not democratic
