"rhe School-master is abroad" The '.Goths' are in
motion; Aye, the Gotls! who put their brother "Goth, ;"
Andrew Jackson, sin possession of the Capitol, are in
motion. The abused people are rising to vindicate the
honor of the man of their choice, and TO maintain their
own dearest rights, against the calulnnies OF a Bank
bought press, and the usurpations of Bank loving Senators.
The ''Goths' are rising in Virginia and they shaH be
heard by the assumed defenders of the Constitution and
Laws, IN the Legislature. Their purpose cannot be sha-
ken, nor their voice suppressed, by the taunts. sarcasms
and false representations Of the foes to popular rights.
Neither by the strong denunciations of the Ajax of North
ampton, nor by the harsh and dissonant screams of the
Northwestern Fedcraist, nor by the Grammar-marring
slang-whanging ofthe Southwestern Nulhfer. Nor can
they be deceived, either by the ~sophistry or the wit of
the doublc-sightcd false prophet from the Norfolk Dis
trict, or his disciple-the accomplished, - lady-likc'

Tell them not about "a fair 1ira roce vote at the Polls
They have not forgotten your panic movements last
Winter and Spring. They have not forgotten the innu-
merable exaggerations and falsehoods of Wing presses
and the false prophecies of Wing Senators. They have
not forgotten that many of the Senatorial prophets left
their posts in the Senate, to play the Denagoguc in
Philadelphia and Baltimore. They have not forgotten
how these defenders of the Constitution and Laws
exulted i'll the alarm and distress brought upon the coun-
try, by their fraudulent and nefarious HickS, while they
laughed i'll their sleeves at the credulty of the honest
people, ana poured forth Their Joy IN frantic jubilee
Mt the prospect of getting their leaders and themselves
into power and office. The people have not forgotten
the influence, which these things exercised over the vote
at the polls oflast april. Tell us not of riea eOce instruc-
lions at the polls. We know, from subsequent events,
that we were then most wantonly imposed upon, by these
ncwfangled Wings. We know that signing our names
TO Letters of Instruction, TO say the least, is as fair,
open and abovebeard, as riUG cOco voting. The Let
ters, with our names are published to the world, and
this answers all the objects ofoica coce voting. The III
rG DOcc voter as well as the signer of instructions Of we
must suppose Ignorance and corruption III the pcople)
may have been ''cornered" and tempered with by the
Candidate; or his friends may have loaned the voter
give dollars, or slandcred the opposing candidate. In
deed there is no objection to a sign-manual vote, that will
not apply with equal or greater force, to oiga uOco voting;
provided the signature be genuine.
