Pierces steed has cleared the ditch this time without
throwing his rider and the White House latch srngs
out and the door open for the entrance Of the gorio
Democracy. "-Salem Register
No Presidential candidate was ever so badly beaten

The Newark Advertiser inquiries, ..WnEnE ARE We ?
The fragments every where show that Democratic tor

Too BAD.--A good Wing in our city received letter
from brother Wing in New York yesterday saying that
he had just learned that the Democrats had election
this week, and forgot to notify the Whigs-Boston Post
The Albany Register says consolipgly: at is good
old maxim, and somewhat worthy of acceptation, that
always darkest just before the day. If this holds
coed in the present must be hard upon the hour
OF bright daybreak for before the darkness
deeper than it is now"

Chitagongs in Ohio Pennsylvania and New York mount
proudly the dead stretched cider barre and
lift up their clarion voices like victorious trumpeters
