ANOTHER VETERAN IN THE FIELD
GEsTLEMES-I SIN sure il will afford you much plea
to learn that your old friend and coaborer in the
cause of Democracy, Capt WILLIAM GALLOWAY, of
Franklin, has been broug before tho People the
hattering manner, candidate highly qualified
present this Senatorial District for the next term The
times have called this tried Republican into the field and
lac has firmly though reluctantly responded in the a
hrrnativc notwithstanding the embarrassing diic ues
that lie in his way, arising from his peculiarly delicate
health By referring your earliest lists you will find
that William Galloway is of those veteran sustaners
OF the Enquirer, who originally embarked with it
the wide and tcmpestuous of Politics. and
IRON that eventiul period to the present time, he has
steadily kept the fth and clung with ardent devotion,
to the glorious principles of Freedom and the Consu
ton every hour of peril alarm For several years
past his health has been deeply impaired connc
him almost exclusively at home; and, cquenty he
has been denied the privilege of mngng with his fellow
citizens and contributing that efficient support the
sent patriotic and distinguished Administration, which he
is so capable and DESTROYS of rendering He is how
ever in state ofrapid convaescence and his conhdng
friends hail with delight the cheering prospect of seeing
him again on the political arena.
The people of Franklin have long recognized William
Galloway as The incorporating defender of their
cred rights and interests; and they will rally around him
at the polls with animated zeal, springng not only
from the grateful recollection of his faithful services i'm
gone times, but from the solid of his
ling merits man, and ofhis superior claims a sound
and enlightened politician. Since the proud days of
I'm a. Burioeit-whosc noble career, alas, brought
to premature close; for lie sunk under the ruthless
hand of Death in the very harvest of his usefulness,
distinguished for his Republican purity, admired for his
unsuied virtues, and mourned as an affecting loss TO
district which delighted to honor him. and of which he
was signal ornamentsince the bright days of that
amentcd Patriot, can be found among Of more
ardent love of country of expanded Republican
feelings of more just and liberal principles, than Capt
VIM. Galloway. Such, then. is the individual whom
the Jcfiersonan Democrats have determined sustain
in opposition to Col. Campbell the present incumbent
They will countenancc the petcnsons OF candidate
for favors who aided in the reelection ofB w Leigh
to the Senate the IT, States Their love of Liberty their
regard for Equal Rights their profound for
their Constitution, all forbid it Their hatred of Bank
Arstocras, IA disgiiSc--of AenLaw Federasts-of
modern, achimPerng and tchinng pebald Whgs-al all
forbid it
Sirs The People of late have had the impudence
ask many imPertinent questions in relation to the public
men that figure the stage; and among other things,
they want to know who this Mr. Leigh is with whom
they have been saddlcd for the years come
~ Ct arms. What has he done, they exclam that he
and his mongrel hackers should dare thus ride rough
shod ovcT the plundered pcughmen and beggared yeo
many of the land Did he not admire and sustain the
principles of that most odious and oppressive Act,
called the Alien Law? Has he not heen guilty of the
most rancorous opposition 10 every Republican Admins
traton, from his youth to the present period Has he
not already '@deaiened the public by the constant
tY7anging of his bow in evclng his envenomed shafts
at our ilusrous Chief Magistrate and amiable and
distinguished Vice Presidert--just he has al
ways done to the illustrious shade of the evera-
mentcd Jefferson2 What great Champion of Popu-
lar Rights has he failed to cry down? And is all
this nothing to be remembered against him? Was not
this same Mr. Leigh opposed to the late War involving
as 1T did our national honor, the vital principles of
Governments, our security and prosperity Is not this
same Mr. Leigh good Bank Bddle wants?
Ana IS he not our most dangerous enemy, from
the fact OF his having worn mask from beginning

there have deserted danger lurking about it, Is
this the selfsame Watkins Leigh who toiled long
and fought hard against the extension of the right of
suffragc-who played fthe bulldog of the Convention
hercey raising his brises every who denounced
the aristocfatc and hdeous features of his black basis
Was he not the contemner of the solid doctrine, which
guaranteed to those who fought the battles andpad their
portion of the taxes of their country the glorious prvi
lege OF having voice in the election of their rulers?
Watkins Leigh the friend of the Western peasant in his
owly cottage and yet denies hma voice in the support of
his country! Watkins Leigh the advocate fequal rights
and privileges and yet sin political economy, makes
no distinction between the day aboTer and the slave
viii Virginia sustain such man? viii the democracy?
VIII the sturdy yeomanry of the soil sustain him?
