JUSTICE.


We regret, with many Of our nsighbors, to
see so many candidates in nomination, Tor the
office Of Representative 10 the nsx, Congress.
Mes>ts. Psstcs end Eddy, have been select.
ei. by Q competent convention, es candidates
for the ninet.enth Congress. Wuh this OF.
tengsmenf, the principal part OF our Farmers,
10 Our part OF the state, are ss'i,hed. Dut
we are not well pleased, with the conduct OF
censin other candidates, who have nomlns'ed
themselves land who have sounded their
own honor, digoity, snt talents; and smong

The Slate, for imnoyfans serpiees rendered US
We have yet to learn whs' tnk.orfani serv'ces
M Duries has pc formed, TO promote the
public interest, siiher ia or our of Congress.
We should reslly like To know, what that
gentleman has done, that gives him e!ain'
TO our sufffsges? We see nothing in his oson
account Of services tcndered US, which ent.
ties him, in any shape or form, TO our sup
port, on tho present occasion. We wore
zVNing, some iour years since, that Mr.. Dur

our whole support We considered it, at

feet on his mind aud con.usn him TO te,ifo
from the contest, with HONOR 80 himself.
