TIRED OF REpUBLIcANIsM.

II would seem from the following cN-
tract. that in the strongest so-callcd Re
publican" State in the Union, the princi-
piles when illustrated by the practice OF
that party, have pa,led upon the public
taste, and have become loaIhsOmc to
such degree that many Of its recent adj
hercnts are rushing with a hearty good
will into the ranks of Democracy.
The Boston Courier, one Of the abIest
representative journals OF tile old Whig
sentiment in the Union. thinks that Mas
sachusetts has had enough of Republican,
ism, and, in a recent issue, /. an editorial
llusion to the Democratic nominees for
State officers, holds this significant Ian
guage:
I'VE shall do all in our power to pro-
mote the election of these candidates
heartily and cheerfully: not because they
are democrats but because we wish TO do
the State such service as we can render.
and because We think there is no other
course left for national men at present in
Massachusetts,. The State has had enough,
and we trust the people are at length ready
70 say, more than enough Of the Rcpubli-
can party: and it is high time, 10y every
means involving no sacrifice of essential
principle, to resist and bring to an end a
power, dishonesty acquired, and which
they have so shameiully abused. An adj

early hour the fact was current throughout the city,
that the polls were in possession of class of men
who could only be encountered upon equal terms by
a resort to violence and the use of arms Conse-

that time until the polls closed, the vote, we pre-

This publication having been generally distributed
about the several polls and posted IN various parts
of the city, had the effect to retire what few OF Mr.
Shuts friends were endeavoring to maintain their
ground and to leave the affair of the day uncontest-
