 ine The candidates for the State Offices are familiar to all our readsrs for their patriotism, integrity and tried worh Those for the Senate also well known in the districts where they respectively reside as men of ability and great purity ofcharacer. Mesars. Rock well and Curtis have each been selected by COnven- tons composed of large number of delegates person. ally and politically well acquainted with their merits And though Gen. Sterling has been laken up and is supported by portion ot the Jackson men in the l7h district we have the most positive assurances that in feeling and principle he considers himself identified with the National Republican party, and at he will consequently receive their sufrages. These then the candidates to whom the State looks Jitchfeld County for strong and vigorous support. Will be disappoiutedf We trust notbu that on Monday next we shall give such accoun, will the friends ofsound principles and good government in all our borders to rejoice. We must then make Tong pull,
 strong pnl, and pull ailsogrther, and faction rand msruie will receive such rebuke they have never before fei. in this state.
 VOTES! VOTES! Ifeach freeman would come to ihe polls prepared with his ballot for every officer, it might save great deal of trouble. and prevent at- tempts at imposition. Representatives are first to be chosen, then Senator, Governor L,. Governor, Trea surer and Secretary, in this order. Recollect that the eeclon of every officer will be contested-and t behoves the lreemen to remain upon the ground till the last ballot is deposited. Patience and persever e0ce in good cause will inevitably lead to favorable results.
 '' Fire Straighs."-A, the electioa next Monday in this county hope all friends in the good cause firing straight for their candidates. Stick the ground till every candidate is voted for. Recolect, that though Lilchfeld county s strongly excited some others in the siaie she should give power full vote: The enemy is acye is united. and will do all in its power-and it behoves us, who are very great majority, also gird the and 60 our duty. Let usgive our enemy such a rout that they will rsmember il for a long series of years.
 FOOT or EDwARDs-the unassHming, unpreiend- ing working who has always sustained himself by his industry, the parse-prond. asisocraiic, wealthy Lawyer, who probably never did days out door labor in his liecboose ye Monday next whom ye will have to rule you for the next twelve months. Edwards may have the most cunning and in. irigne-Foot has the most honesty and common sense Freemen contrast the pre:ensions of these two men for the highestofice in your gif andsay which shall have yoar suGrages? 8
 Soldiers ofthe Revolution Pensioners of the Uni ted Stases Recoect that but for the strenuous exer tous uf 6AMUEs. A. Foer .Aa IIai.aA States you might still be without your pensions tain you in your decline towards the grave. It is well known and undenable fact that by h perseyer- ing cxerions the act was crowded through Congress as early it was aganst the wishes of the Jackson of the Southern states. II the numerical strength of the Jackson men at the south had been, equal 10 heir zeal against the bil would have passed Come forward ihen, soldiers of lhe revolution, and shoulder to shoulder support Foot for the next Gov ernor. The friend who stood by yos in your u,mos, need should no be forgotten when yoa have the pow CT of sustaining him. Ifyou arc not able to walk to the polls, get some youthful friend to take ysu there.
 Some of the Regsncy party make grea. ado ,ha, the Independent liepuiicans have lawyers associated with them What charge to come from them m!- Why at the present time they have least four ia.O- yevs in this county who candidates for the lower house of the legislature; while the other party have to our knowledge but Where is the lawyer infiu- ence thenf Look to the active eleciioneerers More than half the lawyers ofhe cooniy s,raining every nerve to sustain the oice.holders party. Witness the Post Ofics Department in this county There are G. oen iaoyers who hold the commission of Postmaster, every of whom is engaged ia sus,anpg the course of,he adminissration--some perhaps from sonscien-
 ous motives, others from the fear of losing thar fees and their influence. Who holds the Post Office tn Liich6eld7 lawyer, sprout of the Regency, who caused 1t 10 be snatched from the hands of a worthy
 ecaRir, who never would prostitute his office to ,he purposes of party. The lawyers associated with us in the election! Pshaw!
 ~ The office -holders and office -seeke CTS have hun. ted all over the 18th dstric. 10 find something to say aganst our candidate for the Senate, Theron Rock sesu but without success. Even the Stil River Pro. lessor of Dviaaon is obliged to give s sup-heace re- sorss had 10 the old alternative that he has no, here iofore been clamoEoas demagogue- lie name is not to be found among tho catalogue of office holders is the highest compliment iha. can be paid ,o the man that 4.iypes and fgares' cannot cay any thing against him. Theron Rockwellis m intelligent, sub siantiai. common sense Farmer. The real working msnwill on Mo6day next go coolly to the pos and cleo. him theit' Senator by slarge majority.
