TuE ELECTION. We last week stated the
reasons why the coming State election is to be
an unusually important day viz: because in ad-
dition To the choice of a Governor, Senators and
Town Representatives TO the General Assemb-
" and other state officers, we shall be called
upon to cast our votes for a Representative in
Congress-; and on the Legislature will devolve
the duty of selecting a Senator to represent this
state in Congress for sir years. 1t is therefore
of great importance that every Wing town
should be represented by a man of known and
decided Wing principles. And as great efforts
are making in the north part Of the state for the
Loco Foco ticket for state officers, il is of the
utmost consequence that we in this section
should do our duty. Of the success of the adj
ministration ticket we have M fears; but still a
decrease in our majority in this state would
only tend to encourage the Loco FOcos and
dampen the ardor of our friends abroad. Let
it never be said that there was a falling off in
Vermont, at this time of our country's trial.
We have stood in the breach, and with Mass.
and a few other states when in a minority,
have borne the brunt of opposition to the deS-
t~ructive measures of the Jackson-Nan Buren,
administrations and now that victory is crown-
ing our efforts and we are beginning to see the
dawn of brighter days, let us not prove negli-
gent of our duty and thus fail of doing our part
towards concentrating the political revolution
which has been so gIoriously begun in the
land. We make no appeal to the passions OF
prejudicies of our readers; we simply urge tht
duly, of evLry mans recording his vote, at such
an important crisis as this. If you really be-
lieve the principles of the Wings to be correct
give them your countenance and support. |
you think Hon. Inland Hall, our worthy anC
tried member of Congress has been faithful, anC
will better represent the feelings and views o
the people of this District than Roberts, mani
fest it by your vote. If you desire to see al
our good and time honored institutions preserv.
ed against the reckless efforts of the Loco Fo
CO party, whose watchword is " DEsrRUc.
TIoN,' then cast a vote for the Wing tickets
Ifyou believe, as we do, that the measures o.
the present national Administration are entire
" adverse to the best interests of the country
then 90 for the Wing ticket. If you wish tC
see Executive usurpation rebuked, vote thu
Wing ticket. In fine, if you wish to see tn,
much needed REFORM in the administration o
our government effected, then go TO the poll
and by voting for the Wing Tickets aid in ele
waiting men to Office who will take measures Il
secure this end. We have only to add, one o
the greatest duties of freemen is, to vote at tn,
polls; and if you neglect it, your mouth will b'
forever shut from uttering any complaint
against the conduct Of those in Offices of powe
and trust in our land. IL you NEGLECT YoUI
DUTY, DO NOT COMPLAIN OF OTHERS FOR NEG
LEcTrNG THEIRS. Uyou neglect The import
ant TRUST of roting, committed 10 you, no,
shall you call 10 account those 'cho in office
abuse the trust, iohich is contided them.
