We have presented before us candidate
for the Presidency, WILLIAM HENRY
HARRISON, of Ohio, a statesman, pat
riot a phianthropist, one whose views are
materially the reverse of the present Chief
magistrates, in regard to the vetoing power
and personal assumption and responsibility,
MS also the appointing and removing power
lie il his counlry's tried friend in war and
i'll peace, i'll prosperity and adversely. He
has been weighed in his coIutry's balance,
and not found wanting Such is the char
ucter of the man who is presented before
us as worthy Of our suflrages for the next
president and from his past life in public
capacity, we have no reason to believe
rlut he would give a casting vote i'll the
ScnEte, or elsewhere, to deprive the free
men Of their inalienabIc rights, the free
dom of speech, liberty of ihe press, and
free communication through the public
mails. FRANCIS GRANGER of New
York, for Vice President We venture to
say that his character as public servant
is untarnlshcd. Amongst all the culumny
that is poured ont against men, that are
presented by their friends, before the pub
Tic as men that can be cOnfided in rs to
iaithluIness in the trust that is 10 be reposed
in them us public servants, not an accusa-
ton is found against Francis Granger AS
10 the distinguished abilities Of both llar-
rison and Granger, we need only to refer
YOU to the periodicals Of the day for an
exhibition Of their talents and sentiments,
expressed on various occasions, aud which
have recentIY been put before the pubic.
We are confident that both Harrison and
and Granger, are not without large num-
her of friends and slpporers among tie
freemen Of Franklin Comfy. 10 you we
appeal for that efficient cXcrion that shall
be felt when the votes of the electors shall
he canvassed at the city Of Washington,
ID. e. at the time prescribed by law. We
ale aware that many feel a relaxation i'll
CXCrlions because Of the uncertainty Of the
result. But this should never be- Let
ireemen understand that in order to main
tain republican government, they must
inform and eulighteu their own under
standings, and know that others aro en-.
lightenCd.
The undersigned feel warranted TO say
that the prospects Of securing the election
Of HARRISON and GRANGER, are eve
ry day Frightening and that nothing more
need he done in this State to elect Harrison
electors, than for every freeman friendly
10 their election, TO 90 to the polls on the
9Th of November next, and there fearlessly
cast their votes for the men Of their choice,
az electors. See to it that no imposition is
played Off upon you by spurious tickets,
The nomination to he found in the State
Journal is the right one. Freemen Of
Franklin County, be We not backward in
this undertaking. Let your votes tell that
you lave been active, and ihat you do not
intend to be behind in any eXertion 10 save
your country from the vortex Of political
ruin. We would say to the town commit
taos, be at your posts. be active and efficient
in your exertons, in stimulating every
frcemcn in your town TO go to the polls
This will be repelling force by force. No
doubt hut that the friends Of lIr Van Blu
rem will be, aud IRE making powerful cx-
Cltons to seizure lis election, But the re-
cent election in our State tells that they
VIII be defeated in this State, if the friends
OF Harrison and Granger are faithful and
10 n man, at the polls. We want none bit
honorable cXertons, and That we may have
them is the sincere desire and expectation
