Hampshire Patriot for the year lcll, 1t
saw the names of the II Republican candi-
dates for State Senators TO be chosen that
vear-Jeflersonia Republicans. Five of
them are now liying--They are, William
Plumer, now a Wing David L. Morrll,
Wing; Josiah Sanburn, a Wing Sam
uel Quarles, Wing and Joshua Darling,
a Wing Not Loootoco among them.-
But the leaders ofthe Administration party
in New Hampshire are the Hubbards, the
Waldrons and the Cu>hmans, who, at that
time, were rank Federailsts. Facts like
these are singing commentary upon the
unblushing pretenslons of the Administers
lion party to be regarded as the inherltors
ofthe Jetiersonian principles. Lyneh6mg
