cord the verdict! A JUROR.
 To the Electors of LitckEeM County.
 FELLOW CITIZENS great degree of unanimity appears to exist in this county with respect to the individual who should be selected to represent us in Congress. It is believed that large majority of the electors are in favor of the candidate whose name is at the head of the IMPROVED TICKET, but it should be known that a few narrow minded men residing in other counties are making efforts to force upon US Representative who under existing circumstances is unacceptable to the electors in this section of the State.- It is necessary that this illiberality should meet with prompt and effectual resistance; and let it be understood that we are cOmpe- tent to manage our own concerns without ex- trinsic aid. If we are willing to discard pre- judice. and to elect man of cultivated mind and fine talents, why should not OUT wishes be consulted! Shall we be forced into condition for which we feel the utmost re- puguance? Indignant at the outrage att tempted upon our rights, shall We not come forth with our WHOLE STRENGTH ?-and eve- ry man aid at the polls in giving an express sion that will cause the sentiments of this county to be hereafter respected When u"S AuCIC UCCu d VdUUUdlG pTCSGUICu IOF our suffrages who possessed stronger claims to the confidence of the public? He has resi- ded in the midst of US for ma1r years we have seen him in public and private life and he has furnished us satisfactory evidence that he is capable of taking conspicuous part ;n the proceedings Of deliberative assembly. At this moment, such men are needed at the seat of government. The aGairs of the coun. try have arrived at an interesting crisis an administration has been organized under aus. pices which we cannot implicitly trust; and the measures of the government should re. ceive careful scrutiny. No one wishes a representative to embark in an indiscriminate opposition. but to investigate thorDHghly the proceedings of Gen. Jackson and ehis Cabinet, and then to resist or support them. as the in- terests the nation may require. This is the line of conduct which eve' patrietic legislator should pursue. And why shall we not select a man equal to this delicate task, whose con- duct will be liberal, and who will endeavor faithfully to represent the entire county !- But in speaking of one candidate, we shall not be understood to undervalue the other very respectable names above designated. They are all men of good character and high qualifications and let the whole IMPROVED CONGRESSIONAL TICKET be elected, and

 A&* From the various lists we have se- lected such men as under ah circumstances, we have thought most ikelyatO7 concentrate the votes. and answer the expectations of the public. Two of them it is we'll known are s,.,,v sp,o hora off Ennurnec Mr,VCfn..r ,ro. indeed nominated by the Middletown Conyen- tiOn; hut as he is a man of fine talents, we did not think that sufficient objection; more especially as Middlesex has had no represen- tative for eight years. Mir. Huntington is ex- tensively known in the state. He was for many years private Secretary to Gov. Vol colt. With talents of the first order, he has had great advantages to acquire valuable in- formation, which he did not fail to improve. Al the last session he occupied conspicuous place in the House of Representatives and if elected will probably be as eminent in civil life as he already is in his profession. OfMr. Ellsworth we need say nothing to the elec- tors of this vicinity. To those abroad we will only say, we believe him worthy of the name he bears.
 The Independent Ticket we hope will re- celve the unanimous support of those who WISH tO uueEate tne peOpie UOn the shackIeS' of the caucus-of those who wish tO put down the doings of a self-createG meeting at Mid dletown-and of those who are desir0us that Connecticut should redeem herself from the imputation of having "fal!en from the Athens to become the Beotia of America" ."-CoWvcat.
 It is too often the case that the electors re- tire from the polls as soon as the Represen- tatives are chosen, without waiting to vote for State officers and-members of Congress. We earnestly hope this course will not be pursued at the approaching election. It is, certainly important to elect good men for representatives. and never more SO than at the present time; but there are other duties to be performed on that day. not less import ant. Let every elector therefore remain on the ground. and persuade his nelghbor to do the same, until he has deposited h's ballots for Senators and Members of Congress. Let no one consider his vote as of little consequence. r. =, nv decide the election, and determine the character of our next delegation in Congress.
