Tc sum up opr review Of the hefoggsi state of
democracy In New Hampshire, General Pierce has
managed their conventions 80 a. to produce three
candidates ior rbeir votes this spring. viz, Know
Nothing for Governor, sod two democratic free
soilers for Congress. II there axe any Of the old
democracy left in New Hampshire, pity the lsbors
Of digestion devolved on them. P.Q.
