THE UNITED DEMOCRACY OF NEW YORK ALWAYS
INYINCIBLE
Ii Is not merely triumph Of the democracy in Koyem
Der that necessary for the restoration Of entire confidence
in the pernanenoy Of the eonederaoy but give to the
result its full moral force ii must be overwhelming
tory which will eeotualy crush the abolonsm that
now dares 10 put the existence Of the federal gov
eminent No reasonable man now doubts that the South
will cast her entire electoral vote for the democratic
dates nor is there room for doubt that the North viii
furnish the remaining necessary TO
But we repeat that this will be sufficient for the accom-
pishmen Of the great object Of the friends Of the Union
II Is essential that sectionasm shall be completely re-
buked and oyerhrown that its very name shall DO term
Of reproach and that its daring attempt break up the
eonfedeacy shall be pointed to in all time as warning
wicked agitaors Such is the significance of the unity
with which the South forward with all her strength
and invites the North 10 cement and forever the
bonds of the Union AS there is no State which has
deep an interest in the Union New York, the South has
right to look to her united democracy for favorable
spouse.
The whole democracy of the country has hailed with
undsgused joy the first great step by New York towards
democratic victory. The reunion of the New York de-
mocracy being effected the way now open for the En-
pre State TO give to the country that the federal
Union is SAFE After looking carefully the late con-
Acts in that State right infer that the united
democracy have the ability, and know they have tho
will to make the victory and complete The several
for the eight years show thefoowng results
In ls4s the united democratic larger by 622S
! than the wing vote.
In 1850 the average democratic majority was acre.
In 1851 the average democratic majority was 253s
In 1852 the democracy was united and gave Pierce
majority of 1901.
In 1853 the democrats being united the judicial cleo
ton gave majority Of 232o9 State ticket the agg-
gate democratic vote majority Of 25,39o.
In 1884 when the wings and know-nohings each had
ticket and the democrats two tickets the aggregate DEM
ocra,ic vote was s354 larger than the wings, and 6sosa
larger than the know-nothings.
In 1856 the democrats united the appeal judge (Se
den) and gave him majority Of l7279 the republ
cans and 9lo3 over the know nothings
Here says the Albany Argus is succession of demo-
cratic votes indicating uniform esult-that even when
disuned and warning against each other, the demo-
cratic sections largely ounumbered their opponents and
that any candidate they united upon certainly elected
The majortes of the party have BEEN in the most ad
verse moments and the last 10000 over the whg
and republican party in both its phases and this upon
diminished vote after vexaous and dishearenng civil
war proracted with occasional truces through
years.
The last contest s5 in the State showed that the ag-
vote of all parties less than that of 1852
leaving evident that allowing for the increase Of the
numbers of electors than 100000 citizens had refused
TO take part in the election These nonvoters were not
republicans that party displayed its utmost strength
nor knownothngs for that organization showed It's most
perfect discipline and vigor.,
Threefourths of these were democrats who discouraged
by the character the civil into which the contest
had degenerated withheld all participation in it. and
awaited the reunion of the party before resuming
nexion with il.
That union has come; let there be full vote and there
will be democratic victory. With vote of 100000
which leaves 100000 to divide between the branches
of our opponents the democrats have prima acie claim
to success They exceed that vote If they will put for
ward their best effort they do it they will succeeds for
the republican know-nohings and the Fillmore Americans
have been drawing from each others ranks Of late in this
State till they are about even.
That equilibrium however, is position which they
no other political party maintains and the elections of
August September and October, intervening before tho
general contest of November win put of these beger-
ents hors dc combat
IT, when this occurs the democratic party presents
that attitude of power and that discipline vigor and
husiasm that belong to it, it will carry within its wake
it rushes victory, all the floating elements Of the
wrecked and disorganizsd factions.
Let the democrats Of New York aroussl great dee
tiny is before them.
