 Mir. Wildman land beive he has been somewhat a. bused.) and understood that Mir. Baldwin is man of good report, must comply with the request. MT. Widman came within a few votes of gaining his e. lection last year. It is urged as reason why we should give the names of Messrs Wildman and Bald win, that Mr. Bet,s is an open decided Jackson man.
 It genuine republicanism to support the national and oppose the fac ton in this state who arc endeavoring to overthrow it. The freemen cannot much longer he deceived upon this subject. While they have suffered few unprincipled dema- gOgues to assume all the of governing the state, they have been brought to the very brink of political disgrace and run But it is not yet two late to act and we trust that every will feel incumbent up- on him to do thus faithfully, and with soul zealously devoted to the good cause.
 We will here correct error which appeared in our last, and which originated from sources the most respectable as we supposed. Judge Woodruff one of the candidates, nominated in Hartford County, pub-
 cly asserts that he is friendly to the election of Gen. Jackson,-that he has uniformly and zealously opposed his election to the presidency, and that he considers it islander upon his political character to associate him with the faction in this state, who arc endeaVorng to destroy the present administration. Thus stands the account with him. Should it appear that this is truth, reasonable objection can be raised against him. understand he is friendly to districting. We have received letter from gem tleman in Fairfield County, who has heretofore had the sanction of the Register, that he is '' republican, of stern integrity and talents" which Us that Robert Farchild was not concerned either directly or indirectly, in the nomination of Messrs Wildman and Baldwin. Our only objection to Mr. FairchiId is hot loh hoe haon Il
 changed them about once year, and is now number ed Tn the Jackson ranks. That be has been hereto fore touly abused, have doubt but this is no argument why we should support him all his errors.
 The objection therefore which we last week raised against this nomination is entirely removed and we know of no reason why Messrs Wildman and Bald- "In-or the former at leas--shoud not receive the united support of the freemen of Litchfed County. In the name of Common Sense, fellow citizens, is it better for you to contend about names, as unmean- ing and nearly obsolete as those of Cavalier and Round-head, Whig and Tory, than to feel some inter est in the pending presidential eIectionl Are you better serving the interests of your country and hon. orng and rendering permanent its institutions, by joining the contemp,ible cry of "federal enemies,' than by faithfully supporting administration which embraces the greatest statesmen and the pures pat riots in land? Who are the men that keen m this party outcry, and call upon you to support them Tn It They are mostly Jackson men, who have re- celved to their fellowship John Randolph Jetersons most impacable enemy, Dr. Coleman, in 1sl2 the most violent federal editor in the United States and every old federalst who supports the Hero. And wbo do they now prescribe as tederasts Not men simply who were one called by this name, but the most con- sIsten and intelligent democrats of 1901 snd ,l2 are cast outas enemies. What were these men-who now claim all the republican purity of the statc-- twelve years ago? Let facts answer. Republicans, they were not then your friends-tIev are not noo your friends; and will you any longer be cee eved & 'nsuted by their assumed dictatorship? Let the polls witness for you that you no longer seek their political advice, and all may yet be well in the srte.
 The editor ofthe Times has raised the whining crv of ''proscfption," '.persecution," &c., because the freemen seem disposed to object to the election of FIVE JACKSON MEN to the Senate This comes with peculiarly Ill grace from the man whose whole object has been for years and now is to prosyribc persecute. and hunt down every man whose sen,i- ments do>no exactly square with his own. Proscrio- tio" forsooth because the majority are disposed to sovern-bccause they are unwilling that knot ofun- prncipled demagogues should foresta public opinion and carve out offices at their discretion. Proscrip- tson indeed because the people are disposed to sup port the present republican administration, at the ex- pense of Andrew Jackson & Co. Tla freemen of Connecticut can elect their officers in their own way, without consulting the Hartford Times, or being guided by it's dctum Let Mr. Wells exercise liz tie political liberay himseG and then with better grace he can urge the practice of it upon others Un- ti1then his precepts upon this subject will be consid- cred no better than base coin.
 Below will be found the Resolution for Distric,;nr the State, passed the May Session of the LessIa ture, in l827 and also record of the Yeas and Nays taken upon the question. This may be of some iu- portance to the freemen at the approaching election They will remember that the question is to be deci- ded by our next assembly, and that two-thirds of the votesare requisite to have the bill pass the House. "IT IS ALWAYS SAFE TO TRUST OLD AND TRIED FRIENDS" Let the freemen bear this in mind. Sayings and doings are ofen different things It IS not what man says, which proves his charac- ter-it is what he does. We have ofice-seekers in this county, who pretend be friendly to the bil but we should prefer trust them some other time than this present spring Such usually hold their heads much higher, and talk much louder after an election than just before. We have not much faith in a great share of the pretended political honesty of the present day. We had rather trust man whom we know 10
