by the friends of Mr. p. and gross libel
on the judgment and good sense of our
intelligent fellow citizens. 1t is untrue
that the National Republicans Of New
port have any reviving confidence in Mr.
Pcarce as a politician, or that they will
give him their votes under any circum-
stances for a Representative to Congress.
The National Republican party Of this
place is made up of substantial and well
informed citizens Of the middling inter-
cst-of merchants, mechanics, and far
mcrs, of moderate property, who have a
respect for themselves, and a proper re-
spect also we conceive for every public
man who istrue to his principles and true
to his friends. They are blessed also
we believe, with not very short memo
ries, and as to certain transactions Of the
last twelve months in this State pnrticu-
larly, they are not quite so forgctful Of
their objects and tendency as Mr. Pearcc
might suspect. They have at least a
very tolerable recollection Of his course
in these matters-and have not entirely
forgotten we presume, that to his disin-
tercstcd and unwearied cxertions, as our
enemies boast, we are mainly indebted
for our embarrassments in the Legisla-
ture in the election of Senator--lor the
defeat Of Gov. Arnold at the Spring cleo
ton, and for the mean and unrelenting
prescription of our National Republican
friends from every Office in the State.
We again repeat that these things and
others are distinctly recoHeeied; and it is
impossible we conceive, under any cir-
cumstances, that man who has first n
postatized, and then prosecuted, should
receive the support of the party who has
suffered from his treacherous conduct,
here or elsewhere, without an entire a.
abandonment Of all self respect.
From the Providence City Gazette ofT'aesday last.
To put our friends in the country on
their guard, we state to them, that the
story THAT has been industriously circu-
lated among them, that this city will give
Mr.. PEARcE large vote, is without the
slightest foundation in truth: The friends
Of Gov Arnold, residing in this city,
know how to appreciate the treachery of
Dutee j. Pearce, and will Indignantly
withhold their votes from one, at whose
hands they have experienced in the hour
Of struggle, nothing but political trcach-
cry. Can those independent and high
minded frcemen who struggled to rec
iect Gov. Arnold, and who freely spent
their time and money in the cause, sup
port man who sought their ruins
VIII any man of spirit, who calls him
self National Republican, vote for
Dutee j. Pearce, man who has boast
cd at home and abroad, THAT he would
defeat the hopes Of the National Rcpub-
licans--eject Lemuel ii. Arnold from
Office, and elevate John Brown Francis?
1t is not possible, that any National Re-
publican can be so unjust to himself, as
to think Of supporting Dutce j. Pearce!
From the same.
ANOTHER FALsEnooD.-- friends
of Dutce J. Pearce have circulated n
handbill in the country, which states that
Gov. Arnold is in favor of Pearcc's C.
lection: The story is almost too idle to
require rcfutation; but lest it lead the
unwary astray, we state, that Gov. Ar
mold is most warmly opposed to the e.
lection of Pearcc, and that if he had five
hundred votes, he would record the
whole of them against him. Lemuel ii .
Arnold vote for Dutce j. Pcarcc! The
story carries its own refutation.
From the same.
go WHAT A ROW." SEA- few Of the
personal friends of Mr.. Pcarcc, gentle
men Of great respectabilty person
al friends of ours-are making a row,
and are asserting that that individual will
make great vote in the city Of Provi-
dcnce. To put our friends in the coun-
try on their guard, we think it necessa-
ry to assure them, that there is not the
least foundation in truth, for the report
