though when It was opened, he "did there record his
name for General Jackson" Did FAIR Play sup
pose that by publishing this circumstance, which
was already we'll known, he could relieve his
friend Mr.. Harker from the unpleasant situation
in which he has been placed by ssight Of what
he had said on former occasion''p If so. he has
been most egregiously in error. There is vast
difference between preferring one man, and after
wards supporting his more successful competitor
who has been constitutionally and fairly elected
and vlllifying man in the most disgraceful man.
ner, and then turning round and supporting him
although there has been no change in the disposi-
tion or character of the person SO abused.
We are not ashamed to say that we still hold
General Jackson in very high estimation, and our
the fact that there has never appeared any thing
disrespectful or abusive of him in the columns Of
the Watchman. Nor shall there be whilst we have
any control over them.
As to what " Fair Play" says of our conduct in
relation to the Democratic party, it is scarcely
worth notice. To the interest of that party we
have been devoted--for its good we have made ma
ny sacrfces-and the Watchman has ever firmly
and independently maintained the rights of the
majority Of that party against the Vaccinations Of
the factious and intriguing. S Fair Play'' as
crbes more influence to US than we had the vanity
to suppose we possessed, and we can hardly admit
that he really believed that we had such control
ling power over the Democratic party that we could
induce them to strike of names from regularly NOM
lated tickets, and divide their party. We believe
that :" Fair Play" has better knowledge Of the
Democratic Party. He knows that they are bo-
dy Of intelligent and rejecting freemen, who duly
prize the inestmable rights purchased by the blood
Of their forefathers and who think and act for them
selves as becomes citizens Of this great republic.
And to say that we could divide or sway such men,
is an absurdity that will not obtain credit.
Mr. Harker in his Gazette of the goth inst says" The
Adams stock has experienced very rapid decline within
few weeks in this place. We could name some dozen
of persons, who within about week, have left him."
&c. Now, seriously ask Mr.. Harker few questions
