frighten the Democrats; and make them

and charged down on that little, old wo-
man who lives in i shoe; and took her
garrison On, you might have como to the polls
in your own proper character; and aroused
the enthusiasm Of military ardor to replace
You il your old dictatorship.
Asst is, you did nothing worthy Of
yourself and your great name; and see
where ysu are: Stick to your trade, man!
Stick to your trade; and use the tools to

The election is, over. and we have made

49,, The result appears like q miracle. It
t. staggers the belief of the most sanguine
of our friends; and falls upon the enemy

Rice has always counted upon this Dis
trict, under Lowry mana gementas beyond

united on a ticket and have trump han5ly

Legislature; and their whole County

They all ran as anti-slavery candidates,

: They are pledged to useall their influence.
to preserve our National Domain for the

thank God and take courage.
