THE UETERRTFTED DEMOCRACY FAMILY
JARs-FUTURE PRosPEcTs.-The wing party is
dispersed-it is broken up, killed, wounded, and
missing-in a word, as a national party it has
ceased to exist for time. In behalf of the
victorious democracy, General Pierce may
proudly exclaim, with Robinson Crusoe =
al am monarch OF all survey,
My right there is none to dispute"
But notwithstanding the democratic party are
in the full plenitude of power and the spoils.
we doubt whether, in a single solitary State in
the Union there is perfect democratic harmony.
Nay, more-we doubt whether there is single
State Of all the thirty-one, in which there is not
a split, or fcud, or factous or personal
quarrel, in the church. 1t is the happy
family" to be sure, but full of wranglings and
bitterness, from personal jaalousies and envy
and the rivalry for place and power among va
rious petty squads of dirty and intriguing
politicians.
For example: The temperance question has
occasoned sort of split in the party in
Maine = some Puritanical principle in that.
Edmund Burke is regarded as the corner

altogether personal. The old hunkers, or ma
tional democracy, and the coalitonsts of Mas
sachusetts regard each other with icy GOODNESS
and jealousy-that's pretty much contest be-
tween the old and the young ones. for the plum
der Barnum and the temperance question are
so mixed up with the politics Of Rhode Island
and Connecticut thai they defy solution but
whether cn the side Of Barnum or against him,

MAY MoRNING-Monday will be sad day
in New York. Old homes are to be abandoned
and new ones tried. There will be few places
like home for the next week. But the saddest
and most melancholy sight in the general
change will be seen at the Post Office, and in
the Custom House. The new Collector, the
new Postmaster, the new Surveyor. the new
Naval Officer, and the new Navy Agent, will
on that day step into their new houses, and,
like close-fisted landlords, turn out the old
tenants upon the political world, as if they
were SO many old and WORKOUT brooms. Alas
alack-a-day!

Ae democracy Of these two little States appear
to be Irresistible. The state Of affairs among sae
brethren in New York needs no recapitulation
here but the smoke is clearing away, and we
shall soon be able to report whether the hard
shells are still alive, OF swallowed up, body and
breeches, by the soft shells. In New Jersey,
Commodore Stockton is, de facto, the Emperor,
although his subjects are evidently disposed to
symptoms of rebellion In Pennsylvania, the
personal disagreement between Mr.. Buchanan
and Gen. Cameron still keeps up q little wrang-
ling among the rank and file, all over the State,
though Cameron is down full length upon his
back. In Maryland. they are shaping out
squabble between the Old Fogies and Young
America. In Virginia, there is an uncomfort-
able rivalry between Senators Hunter and Ma
son-between Henry A. Wise and Ex-Governor
Floyd-between Old Virginia and New Vir-
ginia-between the East and the West-of q
very complex and interesting character. As to
the Old North State, we are not aware whether
ex-Minister Saunders and Secretary Dobbin
have agreed to hitch horses together, or not
The late terrible civil war between the Union
democrats and secessionists in Georgia, Ala
bama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, is not yet
ended. Where is Gov. Cobb! where is Colonel
Clemens? where is Gen. Foote? and why was
Mr.. Downs. of Louisiana, not returned to the
United States Senate instead of Mr.. Siidell
Between the Benton and anti-Benton parties
of Missouri, there is war of extermina-
tion-no quarter-war to the knife, and the
knife to the hilt. And there is ridiculous
imitation of this fight between Senators Bright
and Petit, Of Indiana, altogether about the
spoils. In Ohio the discussions between the Mi
amies and Sawbucks promise to give considera
BILE embarrassment, in year or two, to the
masses of the fierce democracie."
In fact, from Maine to California, between the
selfconstituted chiefs Of the party and their fol-
lowers, there is anything but harmony. For the
present, they are bound together by the "cohe-
sive power Of the public plumber" and the strong
hand of the administration. But, after the spoils
shall have been all divided out, and when the
numerous disappointed expectants discover that
not only the loaves and fishes, but that even the
will be some crashing Of teeth. Then nothing
but the stout platform Of great popular mea-
sures-of foreign policy and domestic reform-can
save the present cumbersome democratic party
from falling to pieces, from the simple laws Of
political gravitation. Gen. Pierce seems to be
aware Of this and to his hands are confided not
only the destines Of his party, but the policy Of
the government, for, perhaps, twenty years to
come. But we are not yet in sight Of land.
Meanwhile the wings are keeping quiet.
