Democratic journals will have il that the Ma.
tional Wing party is effectually dsorganized They
reJoice greatly over that idea. We wonder il they
have ever taken into serious wha, would
be the consequence of that dsorganizaton upon The
country-the South particularly--and the Dem,
cratic party. They appear to have lost sight of The
fact, that the disorganizaton of the National Wing
party necessarily brings about similar state OF
affairs in their own party-that it at once arrays
parties in sectional contest between the North and
South
But, say they, the National Democratic party
meaning we suppose. the fragment that is left of it
Is sufficiently strong to all other combina
tons. Well let see how that 10. There was day
when great National Democratic party existed, il
not upon common platform of principles, a. least, in
aco-ope:ation of antagonistc iHs at stated periods
That day has passed. The mass of discoriant ele-
ments which combined for the election of Gen Pierce
to the Presidency is now divided into factions, with
far less friendly feeling for each other than they had
before their unnatural and unholy union was formed
An Administration which came into power with heavy
maorities in large number of the States, has not
now the strength to maintain its ascendaucy in n sin.
gle one OF those States where the test has been made
six months after its Inauguration A series of sue.
cessve defeats have come upon it in the State cleo
tons. One by one the States which rolled mp hand,
anne majority for Franklin Pierce have, through their
local and State elections pronounced Judgment against
his Administration, taken opposition ground. until
eeen Neo Hampshire, his State stands forth in
the ranks Of the disaffcc;ed These are facts that
are apparent to all and cannot be gainsayed Now,
where, we ask, is the strength Of the Democratic
party, call it the Administration party or the Ma.
honal Democratic party you please when il canno,
command the vote Of the very States which gave the
largest Democratic majority in the last Presidential
election? Pray, what has the Democratic party 10
expect judging from these unmistakabe Indications
Yet there are others in for them fully as con-
elusive that the sccptre has departed
We pretend not to say how it is that these results
have been brought about, but this we do know that
Democratic party at the North would be utterly
unable TO cope with n combination Of the Northern
wing and Freesoil vote. he vote Of the free States
m the last Presidential election is enough of itself 10
prove this In those States the vote for Scott and
mat Tor Hale combined, is greater than the vote for
uen' Pierce. This fact at once settles the question
that the Wing and Abolition vote Of the North mt
together Is stronger than the Northern Democratic
party is or, was in its palmiest days We are arguing
upon TIER assertion, that the National whip Marty
~ disorganized and that the Northern Whius and
Aooluonists have united. IT this be "a thew would

IS doomed in the free States and furthermore. that

But we have not taken into calculation that the
popular Wing vote in the free States is greater than
tha' cast Tor Gen Scottlhat the Free soil vote for
hirun Van Buren, in 1913, was greater by thousands
Inan that cast for Hale and that there are thousand,
NJ the North who voted for Gen. Pierce in 1862 and
who would now be the first TO combine with gre,,
anu slavery party. II is preposterous therefore Ia
th'nk that the fragment Of the National Democrat,
party left at the North, acting with the Southern DE
mocrAcy' would be able to triumph.

These calls are invariably made without distincto
