The News,

TIE whiE eeting Of last evening, which was an
noupeed with such n flourish 10 the Times, was
very remarkable failure. There was absence Of
the masses, az absence Of speakers, Rn absence Of
enthusiasm, an absence in fact Of everything that
constitutes a successful meeting. At such
meus this meeting Is ,v97 eminous, and argues the
"forsgope conclusion that The game is MP, and
that the rhigs both leaders and masses, are con-
soions of the nDdeniRble fact. There was but one
ora,or-Mr. StaDly, Of North Carolina-and it is
evident that ne had uphill work, aud that he
must have 7ahorea under terrible sense Of weak
nets, when the whole burthen Of his speech was
a miserable rehagh OF the personal attacks made
on the courage OF General Pierce, in the party
newspapers. How little weight is to be attached
10 such iDveciiye is pretty plaiD from the fact
that Mr. Stsnly states that be was Eve years in
Congress and did not know there was such person
as franklin Pierce il that body; and there were
other members equally ignOrans Of MIN, SO obscure
wac Franklin Pierce Yet, strange to say, in the
next breath Mr. stSniy crntradicts himself .by emu
merating the votes Of Pierce, and showing how be
always voted on tie wrong side.
