It is useless how to repine at our defeat. We
arc beaten, it is true—bui not vanquished; Wo
i still have 2700 **good men and true,” who have
remained firm, in their principles against all t!\e
mummery of hat'd cider and log cabins, and all the
allurements and seductions of the monev rowen.
These bfcive hearts and noble, Spirits will form a
nucleus or rallying point hereafter, and old Cum*
bdrlhhO will redeGm lier cliaracterat lho next trial
of strength. Wo have, moreover, at length got
rid of. the TRAITORS who have wotmed them
selves into the party, and who, in conscqudftbo of
the influence it gave them, enabled them to lead
a number of honest but unsuspecting Democrats
astray. These political these wolves in
sheep’s clothing are now known. Their move
ments wore watched on Friday last. There were
eyes upon .them that they little suspected—and
we shall take good caro to put, the people on their
guard against them hereafter. Their professions
shrill not avail them any tiling; for so long as we
have command of a free press, (and it shall be free
while wo control it*) \ye-shall not fail, whenever
necessity occurs, to advise the people of their
treacherous designs. We love ah open, honorable
opponent—hut wo despise, from the bottom of our
heart, the man who would assunte the,. garb of
Democracy for the purpose of carrying qut his vil-
Idinous designs against’the party. We look upon
such a man as a compound of all that is base and
infamous—a second edition of Judas Iscariot, who
would sell himself, soul and body, for thirty pie-,
ces of silver, . and dispose of the liberties of his
country for a much,smaller sum! But enough
for tho present.
As wc observed befqrc, there are still-left 2700
genuine pcmocrats in,,the county, \yhb hsve not
“basely bowed the knee to the image of Baal,”
(the MONEY POWER!) and with this strong
and determined'phalanx Democracy must again
rise, like .another Phoenix, from the . ashes of
dcfealf-anA/eSche tho iiime-qf -this an
cient republican county from the hands of the
spoilers. The prirty will now be purified from tho
baneful influence of corrupt'and designing men,
who in jin evil hour crept into it, and will receive
accessions daily from the honest portion of those
who were made the dupes oj* the enemy.

The great contest is now over—ant]' whatever

Frecdohi, the asylum of the oppressed and peree
cutcd of all nations, has bepiv made to follow in
the wake of other Republics—and what British

BRITISH GOLD! Like the Grecians.of old*
who were conquered by the gold of Persia, tho

their adhesion to a monied obligarchy, made up. of

should our worst fears be realized, we tremble for
the fate of our.belovcd country.

By reference to another column it will be per

This course, we understand, the .Committee a*dop
ted as the most likely, means of having a fair ex
pression of; public sentiifterit—and -they-did so,-
because of the shortness of, thp time till the elec-
tion, and the impossibility of electing and assem

bo desirable, t u - •- - -

so poor as to do reverence to her fallen, miserable

Proudly—gloribusly~triumphontly has tho old
flagship of Democracy, Pennsylvania, careered
througlrlhe breakers of Federalism, .and arrived

that though she had to encounter a tremendous
storm of opposition, her Democracy, have come
out of the contest with'colors flying, after having
driven the Bank bought legions of Aristocracy in
to merited oblivion and disgrace. The following
