The LAST V11lAINY.-The Democratic
party 10 doomed to 60 out like Chinese
fre.work, to be followed not only by utter
sdarkney and nothingness,a but BY an intol-
eraeay bad smell. Il il not only dead, but
to prolonH its existence it resorts to frauds,
props itseH up withlieA attempts to obtain
possession of the Government by villain
ies hitherto unknown in any political can
vass, and failing in that, proposes by con-
spiracy and insurrection to involve the
whole land in n new and bloody civil war.
The latest development will Be found in
dispatches from Washington, published
this morning. The McClellanites have, for
DAYS past, Been in an unusually jubiiant
and confident state Of mind. Gold has
risen rapidly without visible cauze; bets
on the election have been offered freely:
and all the sions Of renewed confidence Ia
strikinr. It wss clear that there was some
influence at work known only to the favor
ed few,-some new and stupendous fraud,
