Is DEMOCRATIC WIG GEsERAL2


COMMITTEE. Dec. Sd, liza
To the Democratic Nh,a Eiectcrst OF the


city and County of New-York.


Feiiop Citizens: With the call preiixed, ter
inmates the labors of the Democratic Wing
General Committee for the year lS44 year OF
momentous interest and results.


During its revolution the Presidential battle
has been fought and lost. Fraud, ialsehood and
caumny have successfully done their work, and
the greatest of living American patriots has
fallen victim to their disgraceful arts.


Yet although temporarily PROSTATE, the name
we bear and the principles it betokens, still re-
main and as in the days when the Wings of the
Revolution marking with shoeless feet, their
bloody iniprints on the frozen soil, sterny retreat
ed through the Jerseys with their font to the
foe, still trusting in an hour of dcliverauce; so
do the Wings Of the present day il their forced
retreat, hu'l back defiance 10 their politca!
enemies, and still look forward with confidence
to n not far distant day of triumph.


OF the causes which have led to the present
condition of the country, the Committee will
briefly speak. They are mainly fraud at the
ballot box and fasehood in the preliminary can
vass. The Placquemiue outrage IesutiDg in the
loss of Louisiana, was a repetition of one previ
ousiy put in force at Baltimore, and but an
cptome of that simultaneously carried into ef-
feet in New-Yofk.


The entire plurality of 5026 by which this
State was surrRndered into the hands OF the dead
liest enemies of her true interests, was made up
of the increased vote in New York City, Erie
and st. Lawrence. To prove this we submit
facts to a candid world.


The increased vote OF the State at the present
election over that Of 1910 is Al BOO.


Ofth;s amount the Wing increase is-------- 6,59l
The Loco Foco Increases 25,Obl
The Abolition increase. ---l3.OU4


Total. bob
OF this Loco-Foco increase o,o46, more than
one third of the whole amount, aud $500 more
than their entire plurality was made up in the
three Counties above named-thus


In New-York, Notwithstanding an admitted


detection from the Loco Foco ranks to the


Wing cause OF at least 5000, the Loco Foco


increase s.............--....... is 6,36l
In ST. Lawrence, while The Wing vote ID di-


,ninish,l l3l, the Loco Foco vote Is in


creased 1857, making net increase oi..... ,l26
And in Erie, while the Wing vote is increased


only l22, the Loco-Foco vote Is increased ,399


Total. Observation-Disclosures 8,34b


Other instances on smaller scale might be
given, but so palpable arc those furnished that
the Committee deem it unnecessary to pursue the
subject farther.


Cd. Falsehood in the preliminary canvass
We desire to be understood. While the Wing
barne. was broadly thrown to the breeze, and in
every section of the Union from the ST. Johns to
the Sabine and from the Atlantic to the Great
Lakes, bore inscribed upon lis folds the principles
70. which we have contended; thus presenting
throughout the length ard breadth of our country
the same issues; our opponents carefully refusing
to permit their candidate to answer for himself,
have framed for him opinions calculated to suit the
different meridans where they deemed Unnecessary
thew should be avowed. Thus in the Eastern.
and Middle States he has been unblushingly
claimed as an ardent friend of the Manufacturing
interests and an advocate OF the Tariff, even be.
yond HIM who bears the proud speculative Of the
Father of the American SYSTEM while in the
South and South West he has been with equal
assurance declared TO be alike hostile to both, SO
that while tens of thousands of honest and con-
fding voters in New.York and Penney lvania (ii
his Southern opinions are to be taken as correct
have been Stoiadied out of their votes, the Ike
result has been produced in the South, If his ed.
voca,es in the Moth and East have spoken the
truth. We leave the candidate himself TO deter
mine which portion of his supporters shall here
after meet the Just Indignation of a betrayed and
insulted people.


The same disregard of truth in relation TO The
opinions Of our candidate upon the question OF
tho nexaton Of Texas and the abolition OF
Slavery mixed with the bascst and most scurril-
GUS libels upon his character and the viest and
most disreputabe cslunnies upon his good name
and fame, while they have fixed en enduring
BRAND OF INFAMr uFoN THEIR PERPETRATORS,
have not been without, their effect upon the peo.
pie.


Thus defeated, what does 1t become US 10 do
Shall we tamely yield the principles we have 50
long cherished, ana meet fraud with fraud and
artifce with artice, or shall moi rather, again
bearing aloft the Wing flag, though now dropping
in defeat yet snsullied in it's purity, still fight
on and fight ecer" until theend is accomplished.


We say the la.ter.-The name OF WIG in its
first origin, its early associations, and its glorious
achievements in the struggle for our own exis-
tenet as nation Is Identical with all that is dear
TO the patriot, gladstone to the phiianthropisi and
bene6csnt to the people. Ii is the true type and
emblem of popular freedom and rational liberty
1t seeks not to destroy but 10 preserve 1t aims
not to enlarge but to restrain Executive power
and above all it desires 70 enlighten and elevate
.,h,;, mind while II ,ccorpizes obedience 10
