When the Republicans OF Quincy wiped
out the Democratic party, couple OF weeks

that the Democrats had beaten themselves,
and would be oil right at the next trial Of
party strength. On last Saturday week they
had another election. A Justice Of the peace
and two constables were to be elected. The
Republican candidate0 prevailed by the fol-
lowing respectable majorities: 9S6, $50 and
537. The Democracy Of Quincy seem quite
found OF beating themselves. And they do
the thing very completely, it must be al
