could carry their politics and toryism % far,
as to cause rep1bLieas editor, of a repa5li-
Dan paper, or rather Republican editor,

Now you cannot conscienciously patronize
the " Freeman's Friend !" and you have
said, that, eff any man would patronize that
paper. he ought 70 be transported to Botany
Bay" But, gentle reader, this can only be
an 0rafOyieai flourish for no one can sup
pose that this humble Jetu5iicaE would wish
to expeI a member from the community for
only one crime, (but ] confess, that is
crime OF the first magnitude--a difference

cd that the private character Of your candi-
date, MIR. Cults, was never before attacked
and that now he is accused of breach Of
confidence and his word-granted, which
shows that his political opponents have not
STOPPED SO low as his supporters=-nor would
this ever have been asserted if such had not
been the face. You say that MFR. Cults is
not 6sar, but it does not Of course follow

neglected nothing TO ensure his election
You say that the gentleman to whom he
was pledged has done ample justice to the
character of Mr.. Cuts, and if necessary this

favor Of AIr. Cutts-Justice demands the
truth if the truth has been told, g that MIR.
