"The Third Sober Thought."' New York has done nobly and stands forth shining like a pillar of fire amid the' darkness which overshaddow the other States. Borne down, disheartened and destroyed, by the mivsrule of Loco Foco ism, they rose in their strength, cast ow, the manacles of party, and rallied around the flag of their country, resolved to pre serve her institution from the assaults of the Jacobins, or fall themsele es, amid their', ruins. They are free ! Every link it that cur_ sed chain of Loco Focu Regency, is bro ken. She has a Whig, Governor, and Lieutenant Governor; If hig heads of the Departments; a Whig Senate, and a Whig Assembly. New York is true to herself. Though the tide waiters, and Postmasters gathered in their shoals of wandering Gipseys, to vote for their ticket, and thus cheated the city out of their Whig mem bers. s Stilt the freemen of the country came to the rescue. The Ball has been stopped ! anti that too in the native State of the Magician. His grand pro cession from IVashington to Saratoga, has availed him nothing, and his triumphal entry into his native State, has proved as disastrous as Napoleon's entry into Mos cow. The home of his "boyhood's days . ' has deserted him. Columbia county ; our old home, as well as his, we rejoice to see, no longer submits to the galling let ters of Loco Focoism. She records her vote on the side of the people. Albany, the scene of Van Buren's public life, has spoken, and that loudly, Against his miss rule—well done New York—well done ! _ . People of this State ! friends of this county, will you still cling to the car of the Demagogue, when his own State dis• cards him ? Is he worthy of your suf frages, when the citizens of his birth place declare him unworthy of support I Can the decendants of honest Penn, be so recreant to the cause of their country? So neglectful of what they owe to theii children, to still, with blind partisan zeal,! adhere to the'falling, and exposed for tunes of did Kinderhook politician ? New York has set her sister States a proud example. Let them follow in her footsteps, and our word for it, the disas ters which have assailed our currency, will soon Vanish and we shall see the palmy days of olden time. , EDITORIAL SUMMARY.
