What We have Gained by Fusion.

As the sbuve is a question asked imper-
tineatly oy the Garas., aud reiterated by
by its prOtees of the D-moJ attic Era, i; is
perhaps but proper that ne should tighten
them. And, in honesty, the rnure We think
the more we are impressed with the fruit
fulness Of our subject. Or one thing we
ore satisfied, end ihst is, that we have Loot
nothing. Had it not been for our Union
Ticket, Belmont county, to her diseredi;,
would hare sent Democrat to the Legis-
lsfure, d this District Democrat 10 the
Seaate. Is this nothing, We weuld ssk'-
This is the mcst Of what we expected 10

Two good, honest, true men, in whsm We
have crest confidence and with whoseRepub-
litsnism We are acquainted, and are entirely
ss.isfed. We OILY regret that our who E
ticket was not successful. But we want IT
understood that we never supported that
ticket because it was bargain; bu; because
We ieit satisfied that we were putting in
power men in whose hands our interests
were eafe, and men much 10 be preferred 10
our Democratic friends. That ticke, was
mated, not by any pfeconcerted plan Of
bargain and sale. but tbe uprising of the
better class of the people, determined to put
down Democratic rule. And il has resulted
in q partial victory. We know the Dem
ocraey bsve claimed il as their victory, but
We would remind them Of an sncieEt Gene
raj OF distinction, who. when congratulated
on bis apparent victory, replied, as he re-
viewed his shattered forces. that few more
ssch victories and he WAS ruined. So il
will be. The constant eIeriions Of the op-
position VIII not only keep The Democracy
within bounds when in power, but will slso
take high stand in directing the affairs OF
the nation, and furtl sring the prosperity oil
osr country. We never expect any party
to gain Strength s,lely from its antiquity
and professec inmu ability, as do the Dem
ocrsey; but We do expect that an e'emen,
exists in this country that will ever give lite
and pr. sperity TO the government, snd will
guard our dearest interests from the inroads
OF this dominant party. The American peo-
pie will neye, suffer their wrongs to 60 un-
dressed. The spirit Of freedom in this cOun-
try will yet revolutionize the world, and to
that spirit we look for safety.
