A WILD PROJECT.


 At the tory convention holden in your village on the lst instant resolution passed to the effect that "every free white male citizen of the U. S." should be admitted to the right of suffrage after residence of six months in this State. We are astonshed that these patriots should limit their benevolence to free WHITE male cdzens," as we have now Vice Presi- dent of the U S. who consorted for years with another color his wife, and raised by her large family of "free YELLOW male citizens'-all of them loco-foco democrats of the first water. Surely it could not have been the intention of ths convention to discourage the bleaching process" it seems to be certain passport to the confidence and support of" the faith | ful." Besides, what do these wiseacres mean by "FREE white male citizens of the U S2 Do they not know that every mothers of the lccoOco party is colared and manacled in a manner which African bondage can scarcely match? Hthis inconsiderate project is carried into effect, there will be nobody left but democrats and whigs to vote-a multitude of loco loco slaves will be cast out of the synagogue-and then alas alas what will become of the aspirations of Cotton, Jr. for seat in Congress!!!
 "SHARoN.''
 WM W. ELLswoRTH-The name of this gentle man is "a tower of strength" to the whig cause His nomination has been received with great favor throughout the State. The sentiment has become a most universal that is high time to do something to redeem the character and resuscitate the ancient go " of Connecticut How this be better done than by electing man of great moral worth and distin- gushed ability to the office of Governor of the State This will be commencing the work of reform in ear. nest and it will be compensation for the disgrace of ha wing such man as the Honorable Perry Smith to represent for six long years in the councils of the nation. ..
 AFFRrcHrED-It is quite apparent that the loco-fo- cos alias tores alias sfederademocrats, filled with consternation in reference the approaching election It is impossible take up of the papers of this fac ton, from the Hartford Times down to the lowest Rush Light in the State without finding sufficient ev- idence of this fact. few selfish ofice-hoders are making the most heartreDdng appeals to the public, and the cry is help help lest the spols should be snatched from them by the People. Those naughty whigs together with many democrats 70 traitors are making arrangements to go to the polls: and what if they should all De on hand the lst Monday Tn April next what if Wm. w. Ellsworth and his associates on THE PEoPzE's TICKET should receive majority of the sufiages of the electorsi Absolute ruin would ensue and the giokis1s fabric of hubug democracy, which the loco4oeus have been toiling night and day for years to construct, would tum5e down about their ears. EveDthe 18th deputy turns pale in contempla ton of this fnghu event. We are not sure but that the whgs ought to be little cautious out of sheer pity to the ores We should break the news to them that the scep.re s about to depart from their hands, as
 gradually as possible for if we speak the truth on this point little abrup,ly, the whole party of the locoo- eos may be involved in one general swoon.
