A Whirned Community.

The Albany New York; Knickerbocker, a leading
Wing paper of the Seward stamp, has the following re.
Elections on the general result Of the fall elections
They exhibit rather a sad picture OF the condition OF the
Wing party:
"The elections which have taken place in Ohio, Penn
sylvania, New Jersey and New York, prove two things
the Wing party is a tohipped community. and that the
Democrats in 1852 can make any man President they
may please. The treachery OF the Silver Grays makes
it impossible for the Wing party to become an unit
again, till they have passed through a long series OF de-
feats and disasters. Like Ephraim of old, they have
waxed fat and kick A long indulgence in good luck
has made them insane, and given birth, not to gratitude,
but TO vindictiveness. Fillmore promised to revenge
himself on the Wing party, and he has done it. When
he was elected Vice President, the Wings were strong
and ALL powerful. They are now broken and scattered
without the means of doing i'll or good. A ship without
a rudder should be the emblem on every standard in the
country. The results of the last three tcecks hape CON-
pletely broken doton the spirit of the party, and shows that
all attempts to elect a Wing President next fall, would
be alike childish and impotent. There is no Wing in the
Union who could carry half a dozen States"
1t would really seem as though an All-wise Providence
interposed specially to thwart the ambitious views Of the
Wing party, by making its chosen Gavorites the instru.
ments of its overthrow; that is, if we are to credit the
tales they tell OF themselves. There was Tyler, who,
they say, played them false, and left them at sea without
compass or rudder and now comes Fillmore, who, in
turn, is charged with a systemati attempt, right on the
eve of a Presidential election, TO destroy, out of pure
revenge, the Wing party! Was ever a party so unlor.
tunatel Three years ago 1T was rejoicing at electing
its candidates for President and Vice President; now its
spun - 1Nf00~f
misfortunes, and internal dissentions. So shattered and
PROSTATE is it, that its own papers declare that all at
tempts to elect a Wing President next year would be
alike childish and %impotent, as there is no Wing who
could carry half a dozen Statesi
Bat the Wings do not consider the cause of their mis-
fortunes as profoundly as they ought. That cause lies
in their want of those principles and views which are
calculated to take hold on the American mind and heart.
There is that appreciation of right and OF what is due
to the welfare of the Individual citizen, and the true IN
terest and prosperity of the country at large, among the
masses of tie people, that the Wing party, with its mar
row and selush notions, cannot be otherwise than only
occasionally successful. The Democratic party is the
party of the country; its principles, progressive teaden-
cies, and sympathy with the masses, make it so. IL
may meet with the disfavor of the people occasionally.
for special reasons, or through misrepresentation Of its
enemies, but its return TO popular favor is Just as GER
tain as that the sun, though now obscured by clouds,
will again appear in all his brightness. And the history
OF our glorious country shows that it is a happy thing
that such is the case. Between Providence and the peo-
pie, therefore, the Wings are more than likely never to
be long in power.-Cincianati Enquirer.
