"FAcTs FOR THE LAnoRING MAN. y
This excellent series of political truths
which cannot be gainsaycd, will be rea.
dy for distribution, in pamphlet form
in few days. The Locos pretend and
frequently say that the Whigs have nc
argument but Log Cabin and hard cider
Place one of these pamphlets in the
hands Of such as make this bold asser-
ton, and ask him, or them, TO answer
it, ifthcy can, and if they do not shrink
from the task VIC arc much mistaken.-
There has been, in fact, nothing pub
lishcd that we have any knowledge of,
since the campaign commenced, that
tho Locos would find so difficult TO re-
ply to as the facts contained in the above
pamphlet. We have made arrangements
to publish large edition of them, if Or
ders are received without delay.
The work, as will be seen by advcr-
tiscment, will make about 100 pages
Though it may be considered, perhaps,
rather too long for a pamphlet Of this
sort, that difficulty or objection is en-
iirely overcome by the articles being
numbered, from to ll--each separate
y and distnctly-so that tho reader
when he gets through with one number,
and il is not convenient for him 10 con
tinuc on, will find it very easy to re.
sumo the pcrusal of the articles at any
time, without losing sight Of their inti-
mate come c,ion with each other.

corrupt and reckless legislative body
estimating its character by tho conduct

exists no necessity for mincing oul

regard the present Congress as the mos
