The democracy Of Augusta made gallant fight in
the municipal election which took place in that city on

We make haste 10 return our very sincere thanks
to cotemporaries Of the press for the truly friend
ly and lattering manner in which they haye-been
pleased to noticeour connexon with the Union. Our
neighbors, the papers of this city, may be
sured that we appreciate most sincerely the kind
spirit which characterizes their notice of us. The
Baeligenecr, the Star and the States have placed us
under pleasing obligations by the courtesy and kind
of their remarks And is by the mutual exercise
of this spirit that all that bitterness and personality
that harshness and grossness Of language in editorial
discussion, is avoided and the true dignity of the
press maintained. We viii at some time gather to-
gether all these kind notices and publish them not
for the purpose Of setting forth our praises in
our own columns, but for the more grateful and prop
cr purpose of setting forth the generous and kind
feelings of our brethren Of the press.

II is beautifully yprinied sheet filed with variety
Of interesting matter In its graceful introduction,
whilst it declares uncquvocally its devotion to the

BANQUET TO GOV. MEDAIiY THE OHIO STATES
MAN

We find in the Columbus, Ohio, papers of the 18th
Gov. Medary by his iellow-citizens Of Ohio. Many
of the most prominent men in the State present
and it is spoken Of IAN epoch in the political and
social history of Ohio" Gov. Chase presided, and
after justice had been done to the good things the
table, he made pertinent speech, concluding with
the following sentiments
''orR UEsr.As a citizen Jealous In the welfare OF
our State as man, generous and Kind keen and
vigorous opponent and earnest friend best
wishes attend him. as with the star of empire he takes
his way westward"
This toast was rapturously received and when
COL Medary arose to respond to il he was evidently
considerably affected. He spoke about twenty min.
utes, and gave sketch of early times in Ohio, and
Of the rise and progress of western civilization He
also spoke Of his career editor and of the
perties of political life, which he had lived long
enough to believe might very well be omitted, or al
least very much sotened. The speech was appro.
priate, and warmly received
A toast in honor Of President Buchanan was re,
sponded by Senator Pugh and other speeches were
made by Hon. George w. Manypenny, late of the In
dian bureau Chief Justice BARLEY, State Senators
Kirk and Taylor, Editors Wm. Schoulcr, John Grei,

Minnesota on the l5th,) and also the announcement
that he would be succeeded in the editorial chair by

ELECTIONS.

The time Of elections is always time of exoite-
ment In the very nature of things and because ours
is democratic representative government this must
eating their power for limited periods to be used for
the common good of all. And everything -the well
being peace, order, and prosperity of the country
depends upon the wisdom and discretion with which
that delegated power is used Such is the state of
feeling generally, but that excitement is more or less
increased from the character of the candidates and
the nature Of the opinions which they may avow. In
the recent presidential election and indeed in all the
elections which have taken place in the country du-
ring year or two past, this excitement, OF rather
anxiety has been greatly increased and intensified by
the character Of the persons and the nature of the
questions and principles put in issue. In the
contest of November last there really but
two parties in the field. It was The old national
democratic party with its conservatism and devotion
to the Union attracting to itself the staterghts and
patriotic portion of the old whig parythat portion
Of the old-line wings who had spurned the know
nothings and refused to go into their Organization
which resisted all the combinations and affiliations Of
the fanatical hosts that sought to overcome them.
There was in fact, but one issue. II was solemn
and momentous one for the country 1t involved the
gravest of all political questions, whether this glo
rous system of government-tho union of the
states--should be continued or destroyed. Whether
the federative compact-the constitution should
continue to be respected and supported or whether
ii should be torn 10 pieces, and its fragments, with
our nationality, scattered on the whirlwnd by the
hands Of furious madmen. Reason, justice, and truth
prevailed. The democratic party, with their faithful
allies a portion Of the conservative wings, glorious
" beat their opponents. Confidence was in agreat
measure restored and the future has seemed full Of
promise ever since. But enemies, though beaten
are not yet drvenfr from the field They yet making
battle with the spirit Of desperation wherever they
can muster their motley troops. But they are now
worsted in almost every encounter. The democrats
are gaining now where short timo ago they met
nothing but defeat. Connecticut, Iowa, Wisconsin,
and in the city of Cleveland ohave either glorious
ly beaten the enemy so worsted him that to beat
him hereafter will be an easy matter.
Virginia comes next. Glorious old Commonwealth! !
which has never yet trailed her banner nor suffered
defeat We know her devotion to principle and
her ancient renown and we know, too, that all the
appeals that are being made to mere human selfish
ness will be in vain. She will refuse the brbe Of
fered to her fidelity, and repudiate as she has ever
done, those tenders Of distribution. We mean in
few days. 10 give this doctrine Of distribution Of the
surplus revenue and the proceeds of the sales of the
public lands, SO long repudiatcd by the democratic
party, more extended notice.
