Twenty years or such matter,

Inclining to the latter.
Oh. coonev, cooney Scott,
Your diets sadly changed.
From roast beef down to hasty soup
Your stomach is deranged.
Your platform and your principles,
Are like your higher law;
The constitution it declares,
Is but thing of straw
To pow der" fuss and feathers,'
The God-like Dan must stoop.
Great intellect and craftsmanship,
Are laid aside for soup.
The Compromise and Webster,
Upon the shelf you've laid,
And Millard Fillmore kicked the beam,
When in the balance weighed.

With wrath aud Indignation:
Yet saws unto the Southern Whir.

For forty years this government,

And now you would be President!

Come Democrats and shout with us,
And make the welkin ring,

The National Position of the Democratic
Party.

In relation TO this subject; we copy with pleasure the
following paragraph from spirited article in the Ath-
ems (Georgia) Banner:
DEMOCRATS STILL MARCHING UP-whiie the
whg party OF the North is almost everywhere retreat
ing far possible from the line of the naty of the

southern people, il affords great pleasure to see the
national democrats marching up to the ine We have
received from friend at Washington copy of late
number OF the Boston Post containing an admirable
letter to the editor of that print the signature Of
"A Democrat in Washington whom we suppose to be
leading friend of Mr.. Buchanan, from the State of
Pennsylvania, now resident at Washington, in which
the writer says:
THE great Issue in our approaching camrass the
fnaLty IF The compromise On this the democ
racy will plant themselves and good reason
why patriotic national wings should not join the demo-
cratic party sustaining the Compromise and crushing
this miserable agitation Of the slavery question: which
has become ntoerable and dangerous nuisance to all
sections OF the Union
'This is the right kind of language from northern
democrat 1t is cheering the hearts Of his southern
friends. If backed, the indications that it
will be- by the democratic National Convention, it will
speak like trumpet.cal the hearts of the almost
tire southern people
eyes, the great body of the glorious old northern
democracy giving evidence, in every variety Of
form, of their determination march up the line
demanded by every consideration of patriotism and Of
duty"
The contrast to this state Of things in the democratic
ranks which presented by the organization and policy
of the whg party is well brought in the following
statement, copied from recent number oil the Pennsy
vanian
