INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS.

The first and principal object of the Wing party is,
and should be- to put down the present corup, admin
stration. The moment HENRY CLAY, or any other
man of kindred principles, il elevated to the Pres
dency, Internal Improvement will follow as matter
Of course. The Immense domain now owned by the
nation, which the Loco Focos squandering buy
votes, will be appropriated to two obects-ls to ad-
vance the cause Of Education by sustaining Acadia
mics, Colleges, and Schools; and 3D. to aid the VA.
rious projects Of Internal Improvement in which the
respective States have embarked. The administra-
ton have most strenuousy resisted this policy. The
public lands furnish the votares of corruption with too
important q resource to enable them to accomplish
their unjust purposes to be readily yielded up to the
people. But our march should be ONWARD; and the
great revolution which has been commenced should
be consummated. The consequences will be truly
suspicious The business of the country will no long
er be blighted with reckless Experiments. Every
department industry will prosper and tho hearts of
those who earn their bread by the sweat of the brow
will rejoice when the policy Of Washington and Mad
ison shall be once more predominant in our national
councils then, and till them will the true interests
of the People be attended to, and the great cause of
internal improvement receive an adequate support.
AwHIG.
More Persecution Last year the Justices in this
county stood A3 Loco Focos to AZ Wings. This year
there 1876 Wings to SO Loco Focos. Last year the
proportion in favor Of the Locos more than three
to one-ths year the proportion in favor Of the Wings
is less than one and half to one. I
More Persecution stiu!-Last year only one tocn in
this county subject to the probate jurisdiction of
wing, viz the little town of Plymouth-now the to-
res exercise Jurisdiction over four tocns viz Sharon
Salisbury, Canaan, and Norfolk This squite much
they deserve, considering how proscriptive they
have been in respect to the wings.
Hypocrisy.-The regard which some loco focos pre-
tend about these days to feel for the cause Of internal
improvement 10 like the love which the serpent pro-
essed for our first parents in the garden of Eden
their object is to deceive in order that they may be-
tray and destroy. No DUFE.
Look Out, Wings The Postmaster of this village
is MORALLY offended that the loco focos not per-
mtted to hold every important Office in the centre Of
the county. His wrath seems to know no bounds be-
cause the Legislature has had the temerity break
in upon this odious monopoly. Not content with hav-
ing the appointment Of County Commissioner, County
Clerk, sundry Justices Of the Peace and Notares Pub
lie, in addition to all the immense interests Of the
School Fund in loco foco hands, he cries out, we the
Simon Pures ought to have the Probate Office also
Naughty wings that ye should be 20 foohardy as to
take TO yourselves even one prominent Office herea-
bouts and that too without asking the consent of our
vnlorous P. M. Ye ought to be blown ky-high
Retailers and 1averners.-The law enacted on this
subject at the last Legislature places the whole matter
on truly liberal footing II entirely abolishes the IL
cense system. By this law any can sell Eve gal
Ions and over at pleasure If he wishes, however, to
cell less quantities. or by the small measure, be must
give bond to the town for $500 not to violate the
laws of the state. In this way every one obtain
license for himself without paying duty, and with
out the Inconvenience Of applying to the selectmen
and civil authority. The wings deserve the thanks
Of the community for 60 good law.
\ What if the Wings should appoint Mr.. Abernethy
Clerk of tic Superior and County Courts for this coun
y2 Think of that, Master Brook Of the Ltchfeld
Post Office! t.
Can any one furnish our amable P. M. with spe-
cimen Of the Wetheed staple to assist the express
sion Of his grief on account Of the fate Of poor AbeE.
nethy! The fountain OF his crocodile teaEs win soon
be exhausted without extraneous aid.
