Litchfield enquirer., 1835-02-26

our sticking together; every thing for Van B"r"n. nothing for n"bOdy rlse-that is, noth-
 ing fur Judge White; for 10 tel you the truth the N hole "fthis letter is jus; intended to keep the People from opening their eyes. Some very good honest Jackson naen are foolish enough [" think they ought tO have an Opln- lon "f their own, and talk about it quite grave. The words of 'Magician.' little Magician n"o committal,' safety fund.- Albany Re gency,' 'NewYnrk tac,ics,' and such like, 1 nave been nntnrd $" often they begin to think there is something in i,, and say, where there IS so much smoke there must he fire, or, as we hunters used to say,where there is SD much s'ga there must be game. Now Mir. Var and { me, and the men that wrote to send 'rm this letter 10 be published, and good many of our folks, have all got together and We think mat ny making great rush upon these free 1 thlnkers We can whip 'em hack into the party, and make 'em stand up to their rack fodder or DO fodder. This letter is all for ihat purpose. 1 ] know. and we all know. that one half of it isn't true. and the other is trash. My friends sa'd to me, your name sounds big, and if you come out and make believe that you don't want tn be President and talk about democra- cy, aristocracy, Jefferson, Madison, Craw- ford, persecution, the war, the bank, gold currency. hard money, but, above all, Jackson and the battle of New Orleans, and then hur- ra for Union, harmony, concession. Van Bu- ren and the great State of New York the 1 seceders will tack and run back into the dem ocratlc republican fold, which means the Van Buren fold.
 You must take notice that I'm slab'd off rom the election and am nothing but "vo- ter'' and this gives me the right to dictate to the rest, and tell them that have no concern hnf f .l Shallow headed men won't see into this, and then can go on to say you ought to elect MT. Van Buren, because he is from the North. If we can keep things straight ,ill we do this, l the next time the President must come from the Southwest, and then where do stand By that time the party will be SO well drilled that they will take any body that the party says they must take, and in the mean time, think can cry Bank! Bank Monster! Gold! Hard Money Democracy and all that. so that, if you will recommend me then, I'll be your man. If White should be elected now. that will be tw" Presidents from the South West. and then I cant possibly get in; but take Van Buren, and by the time his term is up White will never he in my way. It is true Judge White Is as good Jeffersooian as Martin Van Buren. but no better; and besides he shonIdered his musket and fought bravely | like envy.) But five elect him it will bc gree dy, look like we wanted all the Presidents. It would break up the democratic party-set the States together by the ears, and place the country in the frigh.fnl situation in which i, was situated when Virginia gave us four dem "cratlc Presidents-three hand running. It wont do. Let the next President come from the North, and then go with all my heart for South West President, the time a(ter, and that President shall be myself Hoping that you will not forget me eight years hence, and that we can keep the people from think ing for themselves against a caucus nomina- ton, l am your fellow citizen.

 Horrible Occurrence.-The Bangor Mechan- ic and Farmer, of Friday last. says: We have just learned that a lumberman's camp, a few miles up the river, near Great work falls, took fire last night. and three men perished in the flames. We have not been able to learn the particulars. or the given names of the persons burnt, but understand they are MT. Hall, MT. Randall, and MT. Libbey, who were from the town of GuiIford, in this county.
 The Rev. Q. B. Brown has retired from the Post Office with fortune of Sl0O, ,0OO! :! as 'tis said.
 The Post wishes to know if great meeting is not to be called to express joy the escape of the Pres l ide"t: Certainly, and we have no objection to te deum Whig and tory will join in thanks, for had the 1 assassns aim been sure, we should have exchanged
 strai. forward, manly despo,sm, for liitIe inrigu ing cunning tyranny; the violation oft the law which only last two years longer for perpetual violation | and positive obliteraion. Had we lost Jackson we should have had Van Buren. Certainly we have cause l to rejoice.-N Y. Sta,.
