The ResuIt in the Mate.

One year agolhe Republican party, hoist
ing the banner OF good Zines" ard inscri-
bing thereon the tempting motto that "The
Election of the Republican Ticket, would
bring peace and prosperity 10 our people,
and better wages TO lire laborer and the
mechanic" rTiumphed in Pennsylvania by
majority of 10000. The masses of the
people had lived so long under good and
prosperous government that they became
vain, and--as a consequent evrl-discon-
tented. il had been so long since they had
experienced adversely thai they were un-
able 10 feel the truth OF their prosperity !:
and desired "a change" for the purpose of
bettering their already TOO prosperous con-
dition. They voted for the prosperity party,
and carried everything before Them, Cows
ernor, Legislature, President, and Congress,
were all, after their own hearts" and The
Geluded people folded their hands compla-
Gently in confident expec alton of "betier
times"
But one year OF the new state of things
has expired, and The people are again call
box. The election has passed, the result is
announced, and-where. oh, where is your
10000 Republican majority? 1t has melt
ed away like the mornings mist before
the rising sun Why this sudden change !?
How does it happen that, in single year,
our legislature is changed from a two third
Republican majority, 10 Democratic ma
joriiy, powerful enough to coniro! the two
houses on joint ballot? When the cam
paign opened it was proclaimed that De-
m ocracy was dead and that those who op
posed the Republicans were simply seces-
sionis;s, Daring the whole OF The contest
this was the "burthen Of their soEg." The
Democratic party, as an organization, was
prescribed and wared upon as though it
were an alien enemy. Aud yet The people
have calmly, quietly, but emphaticalIy de-
clsred their reputation of The Republican
party and lis visionary heresies The result
! in the State indicates Democratic majority
of 10000, change of $4,000 vo:es in
one year
This glorius result has been achieved by
/ no extraordinary exeriions on the part o.
! the Democratic party. 1t was not done by
! immense meetings or great professions
! with banners flying and music playing
