The New York National Democrat, (Which
governor Hebert's private secretary and offic-
al organ, the editor of the Baton Rouge Demo-
cratic Advocate, quotes as the true exponent of
democracy,) hits upon the following reason
for the discontinue Of the Pierce party. We
give it in its own words
THE PENNSYLVANIA ELEcT1oN-Thus far
the returns justify our worst fears, and unless
the western counties of Pennsylvania come to
the rescue, the State is lost for time to the
democratic party. And the secret of this pro-
digous change is the yacation and weakness
OF president Pierce, and the protligacy and dis
honesty Of his advisers. On their heads rest
all the fatal consequences that may result from
the defeat OF the party in this staunch democrat
tic State Disgust at the policy of the man
who was SO triumphantly and hopefully put in
office by the national sentiment, and the divi- |
slons that have resulted in the party by the be-
rayal of the union democrats, have produced
5he result. Franklin Pierce and his party are
for this-it is their defeat, not that
IF the democracy"
The reader will remember that the above is
lot the language of a whig sheet, but the avow-
I'd sentiments of the only nti-aboliton and
democratic paper published in N
\ DIRK, and one of Pierce's most energetic sup
9orters during the late presidential canvass
When Pierce joined the New Y ork freesoilers,
md conferred all his Offices upon them, the n,
I. National Democrat left his standard. 49,.

State Capital Reporter, contains report of the
proceedings of the democracy of the State,
eld in that city a few days since. Gen Sam
1ouston was nominated for the next presiden-
y, On the ground that the late elections "show
tendency in the democratic party to democrat
,ation and DISCRIMINATION, which can only be
verted by an immediate nomination, and be-
ause national conventions, as now constituted
nd conducted, have ceased to embody the SEN
ments and preferences of the majority
By the way, we find general Sam Houston S {
anne figuring on the catalogue Of those who
re to deliver ntislavery lectures at the north {
urlng the coming winter. This, we suppose, q
ccounts for his nomination by the New Hamp-
hire democracy.
