Dar The New York National Democrat
thinks that the success of the democratic par
ty in 1856, depends upon its immediate and
total ahandinditenT of the preselit national ad
mibistration. This proves the old adage that
"rats desert a sinking ship."
keGentr, as usual, is the earliest in the
field with his Magazine. The May number of
the Lady's Book is on our Table, and from a
glance at its contents, ye have no hesitation
in saying that it will give, if possible, more
pleasure to the ladies than generally, as this
is a peculiarly'ricit issue, containing.fifty.one
spirited, etigrayings and fashion plates, and
interesting.matter from Seventy four contri

THE SO-CALLED DEMOCRATS
Edmuu
Burke, of New liampshire, after
tracing the nistory of his connection with the
Democratic party for, the ,last eight months,-
draws the following picture of the Democratic
party of the North:
"In Maine, the Democratio party' is disor
ganized and defeated. In New York, it is in
condition far more desperate. In New
Ifompattir'e, with the aid of the National Dem
nerat's—who have been persecuted and pro
scribed by the President and hie minions---the
Demodratio party is barely saved from defeat.
Ili Massachusetts, there is no Democratic par
ty, nothing but a poor, mercenary, unprinci
pled, contemptible faction, calling themselves
Democrats,' who yearly coalesce with the Free
Soilers, and , who support the Administration
nominally, only in consideration of the crumbs
which tall from the Executive table. Itt Ver
mont there never was a Democratic party
worth saving. _ln ... short, in every state north
of Mason and Dixon's line, the Democracy is
more or less disorganized and demoralized; at
this moment , Gen. Pierce;if he were before the
people for re-election, could not carry ono of
those States."
per The National Administration is meeting
defeat on every hand, Even the sturdy 'Do.
mocrucy' give it the cold shoulder. Mr Rob
bins was brought out as the Administration
candidate for Mayor of Philadelphia, and sup
ported by the whole force of the Custom House,
Post Office, &c., yet he was beaten by Mr. Van:
-to- the tune of over five thousand majority.—,
Cadwallader received the Administration sup-,
poit for City Solicitor, and he was-defeated by
Mr, Hirst by a majority of about seven hun
dred., Add to this the total route of the
Pierce party in Now Hampshire, Rhode Island,
and Connecticut, the defeat of the Gadsden
treaty, a pet of the powers that be, and it
would appear that this Administration is no.

he made. As it is almost certain that the
Legislature will adjourn on 'Tuesday, the 2d
of May, the Governor hopes, in this way, to
avoid acting upon these bills, IL:- he would lie
required to do if they were placed in his hands
ten days before the final adjournment of the
Legislature. This attempt. to dodge responsi
bility is quite novel, and is affording •omuse
ment in coins quarters and - indignation in
others. The general opinion oolong intelligent_
men here is that the Governor will gain no
friends by being more timorous then his party
associates in the Legislature. The people do
not often repose touch confidence in, or have
much respect for, men afraid to meet the re-,
spensibilities of their position.
It is understood that the flovernerwill sign
the bill to sell the • Main Line of the Public ,
Works, although 'seine of the politicians rep-
resent otherwise. It is scarcely possible that
ho. is so self deceived ns to suppose that he
'will be sustained by public; opinion, if be fails
to assist in this effort .to mess() the people'
from oppression, their morals from the contnot
of pollutiouond their posterity from taxation."

MeeSi's. Atchison and Benson are both candi
dates for the Sett, and the Democratic party
throughout the State is split up into two sep
arate factions,- each running a ticket of its
own. The St. LOuis Democrat says that Atchi
son has written' to his adherents in • Platte
county, advising them not to regard his inter
ests in any arrangement they may be able to
make with the Whigs; as he himself stands no
chance of an election, he tolls them, therefore,
to sacrifice hint freely, if in so tieing, they can
defeat_the election of Benton. Acting upon
this advice the Atchison party in thitt county .
have ; nominated 3 coalition ticket, on which
are tWo, anti:Benton Democrats and two Whig
candidates for the Legislature. Should this
feeling prevail generally throughout the State,
we may have - another SYhig Senator elected
