DEMOCRATIC RESULTS.

I -
The democracy Of the, country (says the Provi-
ton at the results Of the late elections in the several
States fter great triumph party is usually dis
posed to rest awhile in order to gain strength before
another effort; but in this instance democracy has
made no pause; still more, it appears to have gained
new strength from its struggles in November There
has not been one election held since November last
in which the democrats have not Increased their VOTE
The fact is worthy of record and remembrance, and
every friend of liberal principles will do well to
mark it. and contrast with the foolish statements of
whig papers as to the unpopuarity of the admins
tratlon as whole, and the incompctency or msman-
agement of this that particular member of it. The
voice OF the people may be wrong at times, but its
sober second thought" is almost invariably right
and efficient. All the States where elections have
been held come up with more or less unanimity in
support Of the administration, and its broad Amer
can policy. Of the four States alone that supported

press writes capital letter from Raleigh to his paper
OF Thursday. He does the fullest justice to the Fair

Mr. Holden of the Standard exhibits some very beau
tfu specimens Of printing. They would Go credit
to any Boston establishment, celebrated the world
over for their perfect Typography. Mr. Whitaker of
the Live Giraffe exhibits pair of large and healthy

News, has specimen on exhibition, save his own
intelligent and happy face, which have encountered
throughout the grounds, and at almost every turn.

ly bound books. No Carolinan need 90 north for
books of any description. Mr.. P. can furnish as
good an article and better terms, than any house
north OF that much talked of line, known as Mason &
Dixon's.'
Thank you Sir. We could not well omit the al
fusion to the Standards printing without marring
the paragraph. Mr.. Crutchfield adds:
"The agricultural and mineral resources of the
State well represented To enumerate each and
every specimen would be vain attempt l have
not the time, and if had the columns of your paper
are not sufficiently numerous to contain it. Every
species of CATTLE all descriptions of fowl agricultural
instruments, vegetables fruits, flowers and beautiful
pieces OF mechanism are to be seen most admirably
arranged and we'll displayed. As much as have
read, and as much as have heard in regard to the
resources and products of this State never before
could fully realize the truth in regard to these mat

Nash County has never yet been beaten in gam,
chickens, pretty girls, troting horses and pure De

day, between McDaniers black marc and Mordecai'
