THE PROSPECT. We continue to re-
cieve the most gratifying assurances from
friends in various parts of the state. A
gentleman in Windsor County, in whose
judgment we have great confidence, writes
as follows:
"In regard to this county, with which
am pretty well acquainted, am persuaded
that Martin Van Buren, and Richard NJ
Johnson are decidedly unpopular candi-
dates, and that their electoral ticket will not
receive over one-tlird, or at most two-fifths
of the votes and | believe they do not
stand better in Windham, nor much if any
in Bennington or Rutland. In truth, unless
the middle, north western and northern
counties are greatly changed, do not en-
terrain any doubt of the success of the
ticket in favor of Messrs. Harrison and
bring our Farmers to the polls. well
know the moned odds against u.s. but
! Federal patronage and Treasury pap can
only reach few in this State. Our Far
mcrs generally cannot be bought or bribed,
and think they understand this question
too well to be easily deceived. j am more
afraid of their apathy, than of their blind
ness to their true interests or their dishon-
esty."
bG-The North Star has Withdrawn w.
| A. Palmer's name, as candidate for Gov
without any explanation. If this is to be
taken as "A declension by Governor Palmer,
we trust the State Committee will present
the name of some other old line" antina-
son to supply his place. We suggest to
them the names of Martin Flint, John
Smith, and Lebbeus Egerton, from which
to make their selection.--.Mid. Free Press.
Some may possibly infer from the above
that Gen. Flint is opposed to the nominal
ton of Mr. Jenson. If so, he must have
changed his mind very much within one
week. The truth is, Gen. Flint has been
from the first wholly opposed to any nom
nations whatever in opposition to those
made by the majority in State Convention.
| tj-Mr Knapp publishes in his last n let
ter from General Harrison to himself which
occupies somewhat over three columns of
the Journal. The antimaSonic portion of it
is embraced in one paragraph of eleven
lines. The rest is directed against the
present Executive of the U. States. What
ever may he the faults of the administration
would it not look as well for Gen. Harrison
to leave electloneerng against it TO bis par
tiZans? MID. Free Press.
If Mr. Barber will publish Gen. Harison's
letter, his readers will understand how
much cause there is for the above sncer
MIR Barber admits that Gen. Harrison has
written an antimasonic paragraph of eleven
lines. Who can say as much Of the Dutch
