NEW HAMPSHIRE.
number of the Democrats of New Hampshire
celebrated their late splendid and important victory
on the evening Of the 18th March, in Manchester in
the most impressive and spirited manner. The toasts
and speeches delivered the occasion breathed the
noblest sentiments of devotion to the union to the
rights of the States.
Letters were read from Gen. franklin Pierce and
Hon. Edmund Burke, whose engagements prevented
their attendance. The following toasts sent by
these gentlemen, and received with enthusiastic ap-
plause:
"By Gen. franklin Pierce. The Compromise
Measures of $780, and the New Hampshire Democ-
racy-Upon the former the latter have fixed the seal
Of their emphatic appreciation. No North, South,
no East, no West under the Constitution but
cred maintenance of the common bond, and true de-
votion to the common brotherhood.
By Hon. Edmund Burke. The Democracy of the
Granite State-The invinci5le legion Of the grand
Democratic Army of the. Union-the flower Of the
Democratic chivalry.''
We select from among the regular toasts the fol-
lowing:

of political and religious liberty. May they ever be
preserved from all peril by the spirit Of patriot

of Democracy in all its purity. They devoted their
lives to its service, and died without proving recreant
