EFFEGT OF NIL


Erie Co., d., Dec. l9.-While renewing our
subscriptions, we like to say word to your
numerous readers. The great Presidential
battle is over, and we are left to buffet, as best
we may, the surging waves Of despotism. The
enemy, though victorious, is terribly frightened
and our brave legions are standing fast, undis-
mayed and resolute. With pride we look over
the battlefield; and whenever a free press, free
speech, and an educated and intelligent popu.
latlon exist, there the banners of Freedom
wave in glorious triumph. And wherever n
" free press and free speech and general IN
teIligence, have been "cTUShed ont" Free
doRls banner trails in dust Look at New
Connecticut, in Ohio with her free schools
free presses, and general intelligence, and
$4,000 majority for Freedom; and then at
Egypt, in Illinois, with her darkened popula
ton, who have fed from the blighting curse of
Slavery themselves, but brought with them
the ignorance and prejudices entailed upon
them by 1t. Look at the unanimous support
Despotism got In the purlieus of the Five
Points, New York, and then at the glorious
support OF Freedom in the heightened and viz
tuous West. Well may we be proud of our
position, our platform Of principles, our lead.
erS, our associates, and our prospects
The contrast between the Republicans and
the followers Of the slave-drivers, all over the
North, is marked and apparent to all f: and
the Ollgarchy must relax it's claims for entire
dominion, or lose all hold here. Most of the
moderate and principled adhcrents of De
mocracy," as they call it, are now comforting
themselves with the idea that Buchanan will
redeem his private pledge to favor Freedom in
Kansas; and should they be disappointed, las
probably they will BEL another stampede from
Slave Democracy will ere long be seen.
