Some of the whig papers take their misfor-
tunes in high glee, and enter upon the Salt

theirs" The Mirror editor in this city charges
all their misfortunes to believing lie, or to

nership. The Tribune editor says swhen the

so close to antiquity, that it takes him great
while to get on his boots for run. The ad-
vance division of the whig party having ar
rived at the head waters of Salt River, the fol-
lowing resolutions were passed unanimously :

tions, we come to the conclusion, that pe are

the causes of our defeat, we do not think it is
owing to Winfield Scott's splendid services.
or to Franklin Pierce's littleness, but to the
fact, that IRE had not uotes enough

Attempt to destroy Mr.. Bennett
of the New York Herald

The New York Herald of Monday gives
long account of an attempt TO murder Mr..
Bennett, its editor. by means of torpedo or
internal machine, some three weeks ago.
1t appears that at about half past 8 O'Clock
on Monday evening, the 18th ult., Mr.. Ben
nett came from the Irving House to the Office.
A few minutes after his arrival a parcel was
brought 10 him by one of the clerks of the pub
lication office, who had just then received it
from hackman, with the simple explanation
that a gentleman in his coach had desired him
to leave it in the office. The parcel was cvl-
indrical in form, about SIX inches in length, in
common brown paper, tied with green ribbon,
securely sealed with red wax, bearing the i'm
preston of a cent, and having the following d.
rection For James Gordon Bennett, pro-
prietor and editor, office n. w. corner of Full
ion and Nassau street. Private, and with
care Just over the direction, and also print
ed with pen on brown paper, were the words
Native silver and copper ore from the Cuba
mountains with letter inside the box. In
der the ribbon which tied the parcel, was a
finely glazed or enamelled card, directed as
follows, in the same manuscript print Sc
nor y Alcalzor, of Cuba, for Mr.. Bennett, who
will call on his return 10 lhecity' When this
outside wrapper was taken off by Mr.. Bennett's IS
hands, it disclosed a small pasteboard box re-
semblng those used by shirt dealers for putting
up collars. Or, the side of the box was affixed
by means of red sealing wax, strip of fools
cap paper, on which was printed in the same
handwriting, but in red ink, these words -
specimens and private documents from the in
terror of Havana, for Mr. Bennett only, should
he be out of town keep them for him, Island of
Cuba, September 1852. Mr.. Bennett made
one or two attempts TO take the lid off the box !;
not succeeding he gave it to Mr.. Hudson, who
with his penknife made an incson in The rim
of the lid, when substance fell out which ap-
peared to be species of black sand. Suspi-
cion being thereby further aroused, Mr.. Hud-
son took pinch of the sand and threw it into
the fire, when it exploded, aud then this suspi-
cion as TO the nature of the box was confirmed.
1t was therefore carefully locked up until it
might be better examined the next morning.
A full description is given of the contents of
the box, from which it appears that there were
explosive compounds enough in j; 10 have
caused the death of all near it on explosion.-
About dozen hard paper pellets were found
among the powder designed 10 have acted as

The Voice of New Hampshire.

One of the most pleasant things connected
with the victory of the Democracy, IS the no
BILE rebuke given by New Hamsphire 10 the
Infamous ISLANDERS and slanderers OF Gen.
Pierce. 1t was given out that he would tall
behind his ticket that the reputation OF 0en.
Pierce was so low, morally, New hampshire
could not fail of showing to the world hcr
estimation of morality, by vote endorsing the
stories the wings and free soilers have clrcu-
lated.
How is it Fook at the vote of New Hamp-
shire. Go so close home as the place where
Franklin Pierce was born and the place where
he has so long lived. Take the former, Hills
borough. The vote stands, for Pierce 26O,
Scott A, Hale 22-or nearly TWO HUNDRED
MAJORITY over all Here is net gain OF rs
over the last years vote in this little town =
Then look at the place of his present residence.
Here the vote stands, for Pierce 912, for Scott
514, for Hale l69 and here is net gain of
291 over the vote of the last election! Look
at the vote of Manchester. where Gen. Pierce
is almost as well known as he is in Concord,
and here is a net gain of 366 over the vote of
the last election Nor is this all. In Con-
cord, Dover, M@acfsester, Portsmouth, and
Meredith Bridge. oEe Published either Scott or
abolition papers that have filed their columns
with this vile personal abuse, and all these
places have replied TO it by democratic gains
alike honorable to the people and to General
Pierce
But to leave these details of the vote of cit
les and towns, and to pass to the aggregate
vote of the state. In reference to it as whole
it may be remarked. that it is almost like
verdict from his native town-so widely over
it is Gen. Pierce personally known-so often
has he traversed it 10 promote democratic sue
cess-so long has he been before its stad, NOR
al, intelligent and patriotic people. Their unit
ed testimony is of piece with the voice of the
towns. Nobly have they run up the vote for
Pierce! In March last they had democratic
majority of only TWELVE HUNDRED; their ma
iorty now will be SEVENTY FIVE HUNDRED and
their plurality will be FOURTEEN THOUSAND!

The NATlcK MURpER.-1n the case of Ca
sey, the Grand Jury of Middlesex have found
two bills, one of which charged the prisoner
with the murder of Taylor, and the other with
the murder of his wife.
The court ordered the indictments TO be trans
mitted to the Supreme Judicial Court, TO be
holden in Boston, on the third Monday of
April, 1853. Atthat time the prisoner will be
arraigned and time fixed for his trial, which
will probably be at Cambridge in May Or June

The Whig Downfall.

The New York Evening Pos, gives an ex-
planation of the present whig downfall, as fol-
lows:
The real explanation of the matter is, that
the people have made up their minds, as they
are always sure to do after four gears erperi
ence of whig rule-to entrust their government
to new hands. The principal characteristic of
the whig administration for the last four years
waste and encouragement of wasle-plunder
of the treasury and connivance at plunder-
has disgusted the great mass of the nation.-
The wings set up candidate under whom
there was no hope of reform; the democrats
nominated man against whom il was object
ed by the wings that his maxims of legislation
were ilIiberally and narrowly frugal The peo-
pie have taken the latter for their Chief Mag
istrate by an immense majority in all quarters
of the Union.
