MEETING OF THE TIPPECANoE CLUB.

MEETING OF THE TIPPECANOE CLUE.
The organization ofths association will be found |
below. The meeting every thing the members |
could desire-n numbers, in harmony, in moral
intlaence in intelligence, and in zeal. Let the
Democrat carp-it is al u can do! The President,
and majority Of the Vice Presidents wera soldiers
2ldcr HuriSon Having brought clean hands from
the army themselves, and having been eye witnesses
of the conduct Of their glorious ''old General" they
stand in their ncghb0fhoods, as LIVING REFUrA-
TONS OF THE ISLANDERS OF HIS ENEMIES. Not few
we're old Jackson men, and Van Buren, men in the
last contestyet in all this, and in the spirit which
was manifested throughout the day, the Democrat
affects not to perceive the "h1plUritjng upon the
,raH!' Verify, our neighbor is blessed with most
convenient tenporament-not only for self.decep-
tion but the deception Of those who rely upon him
for information.
