Things are looking up here wonde rfuIly.-
The most drowsy Of our Wings have begun to
rub their eyes and shake off their fears. The
Pierce men are dumbfounded at their awaken

in the borders OF the State of Maryland. Dur
ing the week before last, their organ teemed
with letters and speeches written for or 6y
pseudo Wings, who had determined, as they a
agree, to 90 against Scott because HIS YoMINA.

which about fifteen Of our mediocre, Milk>and-
water, First family" down-lt-the heei politi-
clans have turned over into the ranks of the
sham Democracy.
But the rejoicing Of the sham Democracy al

Of this meeting alone that has caused 80 much
rejoicing to the Wings, and struck such unex

was the spirit, the zeal, the enthusiasm, the de-

people, in behalf of our cause aud of our Illus

rery large number of freshmen and Germans
has not been overlooked by us, IaSSure you.
And yet this meeting, great as it was in all
respects, is but the first gun, the more signal
of the advanced guard In few days, the

upon the stump, several Ut the most able men,
and the most effective speakers in Maryland
