cd b. the victories achieved for their
party at TIE recent elections, that
their wonted utteranccs of moderate fall

press the exubcrance of Their happiness
That none may fail to understand the
hcishth and depth Of the felicity now
enjoyed by the Democratic party. each
of its fug lcmen has undertaken to blow
the party trumpet, as though the volume
and force Of the whole diabolical SQUAD
depended on the quantity of wind forced
through each cracked and believing in
strument. Consequently there is won
Ierful degree Of emulation in the quaint
ty Of the noise produced. \ great shout
of Democratic triumph must be hcraIlcd
over tAc land; so, the party trumpets
must be blown, aud the party hcrads
must no, fail to speak. 1t must be con.
lessed that both trumpets aud hcralds
are doing the required service with aac-
rity and skill; the skill being best dis.
played IN the ingenuity with which ex.
listing facts are perverted and imaginary

In all the majestic paragraphs and
swelling sentences which reheasse the
glorles of the Democratic victories, there
is studied perversion of the facts atten.
ding the winning of these victories which
would dc credit to the cunairy and shame

people of New York, NV Jersey, Ind

against the Proclamation nor agains. the
overthrow Of Slavery. Neither the one
question or the other was before the
voters Of either Of the loyal States so as
IN any sense to present an issue. They
voted against the \ ADMINISTRATION because
induced to believe that it had not in the
past exercised proper effort to hasten the
close Of tie war; aud because they were
made to doubt it's ability to exert more
succ ssful efforts in the future. The

recent elections can be very briefly stated
Democratic Generals had for weary
months held back an immense army from
doing the work it had been organized tt
accomplish. Democratic contractors hac
out of tbs delay made fortunes for them
selves at the expense Of the na,ona
treasury. De ocratic politicians sus
tanned both generals and contractors i
all their inaction and greed, aud had use,
the want Of success in the one and tn
absence Of honesty in the other, as tn
basis for attacks on the inefticiency
and corruption Of the Republican AC
