"a DEMOCRATIC ALMANAC. .'-The
publishers of THE New YORK DAY BOOK
Van Evrie, Horton & Co., announce that
they have in preparation, ga Democratic
Almanac and Political Compendium, for
the entire country. A adjudication of this
kind will be very valuable, and it is some
thing that is greatly needed. 1t will take
the place of the Tribune Almanac, which
on account offs extensive political stats
tics found its way into many democratic
hands, and produced much mischief. We
are glad the publishers Of THE DAY
Book have hit upon this idea. 1t viii be
instrumental OF good and Democrats should
encourage it. Now is the time to spread ,
teach aud ipculcate sound democratic
principles. The party must be led back
to its principles, and every vehicle that
will tend to this end should be welcomed
and supported by those who desire once
more to see the glorious old Democratic
Party in the ascendant. The Democratic
Almanar, we feel sure, will be sound
and good coworkcr in the cause.

The Recent Elections.

We have been defeated IN every state
North Of Mason g. Dixons Line. The op-
position By means Of their thorough or.
ganizntion, their great energy aud abun-
dant money have succeeded and for
while at least will have everything their
own way. TO a party not built on p'in-
ctple such defeat would be destruction.
Not SO with as. Our party is as strong
and as efficient to day, if rightly managed,
as it ever was. It's numbers are sufficient
ly formidable to call forth The whole
strength Of our opponents, and its leaders
are among the brightest iDteilects Of the
nation.
Our defeat instead of inducing despair,
only nerves US for greater eXertion in the
future, Believing our principles to be the
only ones on which the Government OF the
couptry can be successfully administered,
we will not fail to advocate them, and warn
the people against the monarchical ten
dencies of the opposition. We have com.
mitted no errors as party over which to
repent-we have no new doctrines to enun-
ciate we simply represent the principles
of Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and Jack
son. We are not ashamed Of our record
as made up and to day as boldly advo-
cate the doctrines of States Rights, Me-
tallic Currency, opposition to arbitrary ar
rests and suspension of civil rights, as We
ever did. NE wouH rather be defeated
uptoIding tie rights Of achite men, than
triumphant upon doctrines anagonistc to
The tenets of the party.
In the meantime the opposition have not
much cause for congratulaton. In some
localities they have succeeded upon the
question of opposition to President John
sons restoration policy, and in others just
the reverse. 10 some States they have ad,
vocated negro suffrage and equality, and
in others they have been obliged to de-
clare against it. "a house divided against
itself cannot stand ) aud the wedge has
already been enter ed which will rive the
party from centre to circumference.
We, OF the contrary, are now more than
ever united, and ready to give adhesion to
any constitutional doctrine, while not
pledged to the support of any man. The
Government which Tor five years has been
