The BTndham Co. Tory makes itself qui,

The Hindham Co. Tory makes itself quite
merry because we do not condescend to notice
all the vituperation & personal abuse that ap-
pear in its columns. We take il for granted
that the readers of the Phoenix can be better
entertained,$ can spend their time more profit
ably, than in reading articles in reply TO such
strings Of nonsense as we find in the Democrat
week after week Last weeks paper contain
ed wonderfully learned article about "Ruf-
flies, Brass Rings" "Brass shirt pins" "Pan-
taloon straps" &c. &c. Now we have no OBJ
jections to this talk in the tory paper il il suits
the comprehension of It's readers but "as for
US and ours" we Judge differently. But we
can assure our neighbor, that we are not so
Stabilized" at the election in this county but
what we shall fearlessly maintain the true
republican principles Of the Wing party. And
though we may, as conductor of public
Journal, be called upon TO speak in plain terms
OF men q measures, yet we trust we shall moi
descend 10 the vocabulary of Billingsgate t.
find terms to use in defence Of our cause.

The Locofocos are quite elated because they
have elected larger number Of Representa-
tves to the legislature than usual, and on ac-
count of the remisness of the Wings have
somewhat lessened the majority for Jenison.---
They even calculated that they shall elect Ma
than Smile Governor next fall. But we adj
wise them not TO be too certain-wait till you are
sure of it. The calculations of these pretended
reformers, remidns US Of the boy who was chas-
ing rats when asked how many he had caught

you get the State of Vermont you may count

will set things right at the next election.

The Democratic Wing Contention
which is 10 be holden at Montpelier on the
i6thof October will be one great importance.
The settlement ofthe Presidential question, so
Gar as this State is concerned is matter Of no
small moment We hope every town in the
State will be represented; and We hope the
members Of the convention will come together
fully determined to act for the best interest Of
the country. Let the motto be principles not
men. The Presidential question is not the on
ly business to be attended to a, this convention
Our party needs to be thoroughly organized for
the campaign in lS40 The causes that have
led to the results fthe recent election, should
be considered /; and every obstacle that we
have TO contend with should be taken into con-
sideraion, that we may be ready TO meet sue
cessfully, the enemy. We hope this cali will
be promptly responded TO from all parts Of the
State. An

recommendation Of the Wing Members of
Congress in relation to holding a National
Convention to nominate suitable persons as
candidates for the Vice Presidency. The day
fixed by them for the assembling Of this Con-
vention was Wednesday, the 4th Of December,

perfectly well understood by the in,elligen,

and ineorrigible. But the obstinacy with
which they cling TO falsehood when once
uttered, is the ttaii for which they will be
chiefly knownio posierity We do not re-

prominently in regard 10 any subject as in
respect to the last spring elections in this

they shouted, victory, and now we scarcely

not still talk OF 'rhe glorious triumph Of the
democracy in the Old Dominion"
To say they were ignorant Of the falsity
oftheif statement, would be 10 suppose them
ignoran, Of the repeated admissions OF their
file leader Of the Enquirer. That paper has
again conceded that the administration was
defeated IN the State. and that 'rhe Wings
and Conservatives" had majority on joint
ballot in the Legislature. But this concess.
ion Of the Enquirer does not go the full ex-
tent ofthe Opposition success. The whig
