al the expectations Of the most %sanguine. The morn.
ing of the day was dark and gloomy, aud everything
looked dreary aud discouraging. But, noswithstand-
ipp all this, We are proud to be able TO record a de,
cisive victory in favor Of our noble leaders Buck and
Brock. Indeed, it is such O rebuke TO hnow-Noth'
;npism, that we doubt whether there vii! ever be ano.
ther tickle, Of that character presented TO the people Of
Floyd. We previously warned the Democrats OF
Floyd to be at their posts and they, llke GOOD soldiers
obeyed the command, and by doing thus, have COW
cred themselves with honor. The vote Of the county
was greatly less than usual, on account Of the In
clemency of the day; yet there was enough to in
crease the vote over that Of lgj2, from S0 against us
to come $50 in our favor our present majority III tue
county being oli. This, We think, is glory enough
for one day. All praise be given 10 the conservatives
of Floyd! So soon as the smoke is cleared away.
from the different scenss of action, and the result OF
the different battles comes TO hand, we Will promptly
inform Our friends of the same. BY our next issue We
hope TO lie able t. record the triumphant success OF
Jane Buchanan and john 9. breckenridge, the final
result being as yet unknown. The following Is the

The Fremouters have much to say about the large
