PHILLISS aid IVITOR - PITTSBURGH, FRIDAY, NOVEMB),R, 29 ---- --- --- --' -----=------------- TRX GREAT RESOLT.—The greatest contest for principle, which has taken place 4n this conntry since the election of Jefferson in 18100, is over, and victory has perched upon the Democratic standard. The election of irmarw Jecxsort in 1828,altiroughamo st important victory, did net embrace so many vital is sues—the firstgreat robjeC i t sif those who fought it was to do justice to the glotioas alo of New Orleans, and to rebuke the intriguing band of cl.megogues, with Clay at their head, who had despised and nullified the will of the people by the election of Adorns.— Federalism had nostrength of berown in that contest; she did not dere to put forth boldly her odious tenets*- - AD rots had acted with the Damocrats, and Cr. st was considered as round on the Bank questiou, and bad been the hest bower of the Democratic party in Con gress dining the war. The contest of 1832 decit dealt a severe blow to the monster hank; but yet, that mon ' ster had, like dingiest of the heathen fable, no: q uired renewed strength every timelier was thrown to ' the earth, and at the contest just closed wart more formi dable than ever. Besides this, too, federalism had found courage and confidence partially to throw off the mask which concealedher hideous features in 1840 , I and to give alarming intimations that, with Clay, all the heresies of Adams's "reign of terror" would be introduced into the policy of the government. In view of these things, therefore, we thinkthe late contest more Important in its results than any which has taken place in this country since Jefferson's fine triumph. Ithas settled . - 1. The dangerous question of a National Bank. Mr Clay said distinctly before the people, that be was in favor of such an institution, and his defeat is as clear an expression against the ciesting of any money corporation by Congtess, as if the vote had base ly taken upon the subject. 2. As the efficiency of b Tasiff, in protecting borne' industry, mast always depend entirely on tbeexistence I of a National Bank,—the rejection of that institution ' is a clear expression in favor of the polic of main y taining and cherishing manufactures. And as both candidates agreed that this could best be done bra . Tariff for Revenue, with discrimination for Protection, t hat great question is aeuled most satisfactorily fur manufacturing interests. tion on Mr 3. It has put the seal of public reproba 1 Clay's grand schema of Distribution„and on all the expedients by which he proposed to supply the deficit in the Treasury which the withdrawal of the land— fund would cause, viz: The taxing of Tea and Coffee, &e., &e. 4. It has settled, beyond doubt or peradventure, the important question as to whether the Democratic policy of the country, in regard to the Naturalisation of Foreigners, should be adhered to. Mr CLAY. in • letter to New York, whicii, no doubt, bad its effect on the Natives, said he had long been in favor of alter ing and restricting the Naturalisation laws—all his leading presses throughout the country declared their approval of the objects of the Natives — and the Na tives rendered most essential service to Mr Clay tin der the w ell-founded opinion. that they were doing the best fbr their peculiar principles. So that, the decis. ism of the people in favor of the existing Naturalize-, tion Laws, is as clear as their condemnation of a Bank. .Who, then, does not feel, in his inmost heart, that the Democrats have accomplished a stupendous vic ry? Who, that has a proper appraqiaton of the to principles of Democracy, due! not " - Sul for our brilliant success,—and at the sank; t toe • when tie contemplates the fearfnlyinrecipiert oAAlifrk our patty and its principles was statillog 413 ring trio terrible , contest, just pissed? Among the reflections which crowd upon us in con templating our victory, the consciousness that our leader was worthy of all the efforts made for him, is one of the most comfortable. Col POLK possesses all the Emmet' of character and purpose, which a thorough acquaintance with the principles of our party, and a deep conviction of their truth, cannot fail to inspire. While his exalted bearing during the recent contest is thenbeetrevidenee that he will wear the honors and dis charge the responsibilities of the great office upon whichhe will soon enter, in a mannerat once cred itable to himself and honorable to thosethy whose suf ftageslhe wu chosen.

Elmt.uu EILISPLI.—One of the worst features of Nativism, is the fact that it is based on the example of Great Britain, in her policy in regard to foteign en. In England, Naturalization is considered a peat boon, and foreigners can only be admitted to the ettioyseent of the rights possessed by Englishmen, by a-special act of Parliament. Some whig-Natives, with this British model full in their eyes, recommend that Naturalization shall only be effected by act of Congress.
