Oeyond the mere 'spoils' of office, their victory is as full of nothingness as the oppleii of the Dead Sea. It is true that the Whig officers have not bene fitted themselves personally, they have neglect ed self, and acted with a single eye. to the .public good, and'saveethousands of dollars to the people in the shape of tales. In this respect par licularly, they differ from the conduct of the La cofocos.
