DEMOCRATIC WING NOMINATIONS.
FOR PREsIDENT:
WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON,
Of Ohio
FOR VICE PRECEDENT:
10 II N TY l. E r.,
Of Pirginia.
VIM, HENRY HARRISON.

Surely, the people of Maine know something of
the character and public services, of this hero and
statesman. That her representatives in the Nation
al Convention, stood foremost. in advocating his
name for the Presidency. is sufficient guarantee for
this. Gen. Harrison, is emphatically the people, !
candidate; his name identified with the history OF
his Country. All who know, honor and love him.
But who is Gen. Harrison .-shout the pensioned
presses of the present corrupt administration. Who
is Gen. Harrison' What question for an Ameri-
can citizen to ask! Let them ask Mr. Cass. the
former Secretary of War-let them ask Col john
son. the present Vice President OF the United States
--men of their own political stamp, and then hold
down their heads in shame and con fusion. Here is
what Col. Johnson says of him.
"Who is Gen HARRISON The son OF
one of the signers Of the Declaration Of
Independence, who spent the greater part
of his large fortune, in redeemlng the
pledge he then gave, Of his fortune, life,
and sacred honor to secure the liberties
of his country.
"Of the career Of Gen. Harrison need
not speak-the history of the West, is his
history. For forty years he has been iden-
tilted with its interests, its perils, and Its
hopes. Universally beloved in the walks
of peace. aud distinguished by his ability
in the councils of his country. he has been
yet more illustriously distinguished in the
field.
During the late war, he was longer in
active service than any other General or
icer; he was perhaps oitener in action than
any one of them. and never sustained a
defeat"
1t is not at all strange that the pensioned leader,
of loco focoism should affect 10 be ignorant of this
distinguished warrior and Statesman. lie ID too
pure, and too patriotic, to be made the mere pres'
dent Of their party. Their ''craft is in danger"

age of friends, and the friends of correct prn
ciples. word, however, on this subject, we
deem very proper. at this time.
In the frst place, we beg all persons of every
order, not to be alarmed. We are not dead nor
dying-nay, we have no fears of that; Bath alone
will always keep "a Wing press moving. when
worst comes to worst. But the question is wheth-
er the Wkigs of this County, will enable US to
enlarge our paper, improve its appearance and
extend its usefuness-ay, that's the question:"
If they will lend us helping hand, it she'll be
done!-if not we shall keep jogging to the best of
our ability,
By the way, we shall hereafter, (as we now
ave in part } change our dress, some what for
the better. We shall likewise faithfully perform
our duty and leave it to our Wing friends to say,
whether we deserve decent support How
many subscribers shall we have by the first

when the meeting was about to ballot, Mr.
Wise rose and notified the body that he
should not vote, and expressed a wish that
his political friends would adopt the same
course. This notification produced an up
roar throughout the whole sty; because the
rules ofthe House having been adopted "nh

be done. The highest vote obtained BY
the Administr alton party, pending the con-
troversy, is requisite to make a quorum ;
consequently, II the opposition refuse &c

That it is the intention to add to the

orders to the volunteer companies at Troy,

In accordance with the summons, the

THE N. YORK WAR FOR RENTS

AS near 'As we can get at the history OF
! the Renso, llaer estate and the cause OF the
present troubles with the tenants, which
have induced the Governor to order out a
stro ng body of troops, we will state-not
hav ing access to old documents connected
with the rights Of the several parties, we
may fall into some error but the general
0 rour ,ds Of the matter will be clearly e.
nough understood.
1t a, ,pears that soon after the discovery
Of the Hudson River, by Hendrick Hud-
son in 609, a grant was made by the
Dutc h West India Company of tract OF
land to ,one Vanderheyden. This tract
embra ced forty miles square, or therea-
bouts, and ,>he grant was located, where are
now 70, ,r py inciple cities Of Albany county,
ncludin 9 tn city of Troy, which still! pays
ground + ent, under the original leases.
Under this grant to Vanderheyde which
was afters Yards recognized aud confirmed
by the Br i,ish Government, settlements
were made of POOR but industrious Dutch
men who have ill now lived as vassals,
under an anc lent feudal lordship. The in
hev;,or of the lan,i the lord in fact, was
called the Pat, oon,. and he and the people
held the same .velat ion to each other as has
Ssr ages existed bet ween the Barons and
tenants of EngIa nd.
The right to tn soil being forever con-
fined to The granite a.'d his nearest heir,
with provisions for cert ain other heirs, can
not be aliena.ed. The leases to the origi-
nal settlers, also, we be leve are made per-
petual upon the ful6ln1ent of certain condi-
ticns which are if we understand them,
the payment annually Of 2.e l-2 bushels Of
wheat for every farm Of 60 acres to de-
liver certain number Of fo. us per annum !;
and one days menial service as a laborer
for every tenant in every year.

New York members Of the liarrisburgh

the nomination of that distinguished citi-

Harrison against the supposed nomination
of Scott, makes the following admission
and appeal:
General Harrison, with what mockcry
have you been treated! When there was

THE MANOR TROUBLES.

We learn from the Albany Advertiser Of

PUBLIC sENTIMENT---NO. 1.

five ever had the slightest misgivings respecting
the ..avaiabiity' Of Gen. Harrison for the Presi-
dency, the general good feeling. and even rapturous
applause, with which his nomination is received by
the Republicans throughout the country. is certain
ly well calculated 10 dispel every doubt. But we
have never doubted but that if he should be put in
nomination, we were certain of fsuccess.
Ofcourse, where 80 much diversity Of opinion
was manifested, and so many local and sectional
prefe rences were exhibited, in behalf Of many
different indivluals-all Of whom enjoy high ard
snviable standing, statesmen and public citizens,
there was some reason to apprehend, at least lit
tie perpexi;y, in arriving at final and satisfactory
conclusion.
But il we may with pleasure contemplate, the
sublimity and moral grandeur Of the devotion and
patriotic zeal Of the sages Of the nation convened
Harrisburg, all yielding up their personal and To-
cal preferences, and uniting in one common band as
brothers Of one common family, intent only TO DO

see the people, ay, THE PEOPLE, in every section
of the Country, uniting themselves together by hous-
ands, and hailing with joy and gratitude the HERO
and Statesman, whom their servants and representa-
tives, have presented for their support?
Already have public meetings been held, at New
York, Philadelphia, Washington City, Baltimore
Boston, Salem, and many other places, attended by
thousands, and the general feeling which has bees
exhibited, shows that the nomination of the grea
matt onal Convention, was but the mere expression
of the WILL OF THE PEOPLE,
