WING WHEAT WANTED.

A fen thousand bushels of whig acheat
,cated, at Is Cd or IS per bushcl. The
wings promised us their wheat for the a.
bove price at this time, and boasted that
they would carry the fall election on the
low price of produce and other impending
distresses which they threatened us with. =
So much for the prophetic wisdom of our
wing Seers. Many Of the old residents of
Michigan remember the days when the pro-
duce Of the honest hard working farmer
would hardly sell for enough to pay for
bringing to market. We never dared then
to promise to pay SO many dollars, but so
many bushels Of wheat or corn, or if we
said ten dollars for instance, we would
write after it in wheat at so cts. wer bushel.
This secured us an uncommon high price
in those times for our wheat. But under
what administration was this We answer
a WING administration, both of our Gen.
aral Government and Territory, and we
trust in God it is the last Wing administra-
ton that any of us will ever be doomed to
see.
Yes, fellow-citizens, it was when J. @.
Adams and his prime minister Henry Clay,
guided the car Of state, that the industry of
the farmer and mechanic was so poorly
requited. When the last administration
headed by our Democratic President Gen.
JACKSON, came into power they immedi-
ately set TO work to do something for the
laboring part of community, (what the wings
call the lower order) and in very short
space of time compared to the magnitude
of the task and the strength of the opposi-
ton, they effected it, and we never shall
see again the bone and sinew Of our coun-
try so oppressed if the democrats will do
their duty by comming boldly forward and
sustaining their own cause against wing
tyranny lind bank monopoly.

TO FARMERS.

The following article we copy from the
Michigan (Ann Arbor) Times. 1t con-
firms what we have heretofore said with re-
gard to the attempts to reduce the price Of
produce, in order to favor spectators, in
jure farmers, and have its effect upon our
elections. Now, we decidedly protest a.
gainst this course, and hope that the far
mers will not suffer themselves to be duped
by these stories. Their produce must, it
will bring them price which will amply
compensate them for the labor and expense
required in its production. Really, the
hard working farmers of Western Michi-
gan, must be obliged to these worthless, for
their attempts to DESTROY their market.
