and ! which proposition was me, by the
true Rhode Island spirit, and almost un.
sniuously rejected.
So satisfied have been the people of
Westerly. Of M. .Dixon's undivided al
|legiance to Connecticut, that they have
refused for many years. to elect him to
The General Assembly, although he has
desired it, and has identified himself with
the dominant party in that town for
nearly the whole time.
What have the people ofRhode Island
TO expect Of Mr.. Dixon, il he ever
should have seat in Congress His ta-
lents are bysno means commanding, has
srsuments ssa Legislator, neither elo-
|quent nor convincing. We will not.
however. dwell upon the last objection ;
for il he were in Congress, the less tai
ents or influence he might carry, or ex-
ercise, the better for his constituents.
Those taients.and that influence, would
be enlisted, mol for Rhode Island, but for
Connccticsd. ar ..sis ns t...s- u.
The Institutions of Rhode Island are
In his opinien, barbsrous, and. those oi
Connecticut moral and refined. i.
The waters of the e-Narragansett Bay
are, in hrs estimation. Of in6niteIy lvsl
iuaportapce~ than. thoss of Ns~ London
auu 0son'hktom! and of course his
strength, il he hsd any. would be ilHown
into the shade >against ths' people whom
he was ssnt to represent. Besides, by
such Lesislitors, Sunday mails would be
prohibited. and hypocrisy substituted for
religion. -<:'f
Thisn nomination of NJ. Dixon looks
TO us like the maddest scheme in the
whole catalogue Of desperate expert
ments To which tho falling dynasty
have resorted;. and it is with no small
qualification that we are in possession
Of satisfactory evidence that the nomi-
nation was brought about by three men.
One ofCoonectieut- --onc. of Vermont
and one Of Massachusetts,. The last act
ed rs minister Plenipotentinry, and en-
voy extraordinary in the first instance,
and as a committee man in the last con-
clave ! Yeslibe same man who could
afford 20 much time to cndeavour to OBJ
tain a Conaeefieue Representative for
Rhode Island, could only afford about
one day on. Of six, to serve his constisu-
ents az the last session of the General
Assembly. NEWPORT.
