Your recent onslaught on General Pierce is enjoy

cly that their souls are their own Even the I'M
equaled adhesiveness and party fidelity of the demo-
Gratis Of New Ham oshre do not save General
Pierce from many halfsmothered excavations. People
who thought he would be more Of man. when
once installed as President, have found him Just
about the "same cid sixpence" still.
Our State election comes Off the fourth day Of next
month. Nathaniel B. Baker is the democratic can.

But they are slow to manifest their dissatisfaction
Cushings reply to the New York harda has not fail

the astute Attorney General, General Pierce is
President. He has been eleeed for four years. and
