Beginning with 1851, there have been ID rec elections,
and three only in which there has been any thing like
sharp contest between the New Hampshire democracy
and free soism with lis whig allies.
In 1858 there ceTious contest, and in the pre-
esding presidential election The personal popularity Of
franklin Pierce swept all before il. In 1851 the demo
cratic candidate for governor defeated al The cleo
oa other candidates having 326l over him The fugi
tye slave law and The Compromise then in issue.
In 1852 we had 10 meet the issue sharply made

error (Noah MARTINI had 200 majority Over this
suit as great triumph, here were reioeings from one
end OF ibe Stale TO ihe other.
In 1854 warm contest comes up upon The old free
soil issues-the whole force OF The opposition aroused
and united BY tie Nebraska question And this comb-
natiou sreng hened by all the anti Nebraska camor in
the county, we have now defeated by 1900 majority.
And this certain politicians fleet to regard defeat,
and an overthrow of the New Hampshire democracy
They start by misepsesentng ordinary strength and
vastly exaggerang it. When our enemies have united
and shown fight in earnest, we have not had more
than $500 majority for many years is by vigil
lance and organization, making our moderate majority
available and by The yasness OF that majority thai
we haus succeeded. and 10 succeed in New Hamp-
shire. Energy and hard work always essential
when enemies are all in the field Standing on ma
