PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS

Tie suggestion madeby the Richmond Whis,
on this subject, is worthy of attention. Itis
that the selection should be made of men who
will faithfully canvass their respective districts,
from the time Of their appointment to the day
of election. Ifthe opposition clector-ticket in
this State, be composed gentlemen Of leisure,
talent, fuency. and attainment, who will min.
gle with all classes Of the people, backed by
authentic documents, touching the ruinous mea-
sures ofthe party in power, and prepared 10 ex
pose the corruptions Of the oflice-hoders, we
greatly misnterpret the signs OF the times, ifthe
old Farmer of NorthBend does not carry the s.
of Ohio by at least fifteen thousand votes. Gin

Then il seems that the electoral ticket of the
Bank federalist is to be composed Of gentlemen
of leisure who are TO dictate 20 The laboring

RID TIM ES.

Our readers need not be told that our opponents
are exertng all their energies 10 create Potl-
cal capital out Of the state Of tha market, tho
scarcity Of money DC. In is, say they. the
natural consequences Of Van Burenism, Bank
Reform and other measures oftlie people which
with characteristic polheness they designate as
humbugery. l. ' '-' t'- ,'''E
Nothing is more false or heterogeneous than
such assertions. The present and late adminis-
TRITON of the General Government and the
present Legislature and executive Of Ohio, have
strained every nerve 10 protect and advance the
interests Of the people against the swinding in
stihhuns that have sprung up amongst them,
aud to compel those Institutions to act in good
faith towards those who have brought them ln>
to being. They have had no agency either dl''
rectly or indirectly in making markets low nr
money scarce, other than what necessarily arise
from reducing bad currency to good one.
The Pre- ssure, as it is called. has arisen from IL
ther causes II has grown out out OF overtIad-
lng under influence uI bank Stimulus. II
has grown out of the fact Of having during the
last year imported more than sixty millions be>
yond what we paid Tor. Ont Of alternate eS~
parlsions and c0ntiactiuns; and more than all,
out of the hare faced txrrtlnns The wing party
| are making to bring tie power OF money to bear
oil the progress of Denr cratic principles, and
influence the purity and freedom Of electiohs.
This being the PLAN matter of fact, wilt any
Democrat proye encgade to his principles he-
cause he is suffering persecution for thrmf vii
any one suffer himself to be whipped into nd-
miralion and support o: that universal bank do
| minalion that is moi asked fort If such there be,

COUNTY MEETING.

Would il not be we'll for the Democ'
racy ofTuscarawas county, 10 assem-
BILE together shortly and concert meas
ures for the full and sound organization
Of The party. Because our cause is 9
just ons, our principip!es firm, and ou'
minds unwavering, are no reasons why
the party should not meet together
more frequently, and in termingle those
feelings which are so necessary to fora
a complete UNITY.
We have spoken to a number Of the
farmers on the subject, and they al
concur in the opinion that a count,
meeting is OF the utmost necessity, and
call upon the Central committee through
US, for meeting. We hope they will
do their duty, as The proper officers, as
the friends Of the County, of the State,
and the democratic cause in general.
Confident that the county is democratic,
we only want the ball SO, in motion in
good time, that we may the better pre-
pare for the great contest near at hand;
and the more eAeciually drive the enemy
from his ambush. ...'a ,5...,s''
The Lame and plti(ul at,empts of the
Federalists 10 got up meetings, and the
chapfalIen and ghastly visages Of the
attendants thereon, fully prove 10 what
desperation they are driven in bad
cause-a cause which is at war with
the popular will, at war with our rePub-
hcsn institutions, and al var with our
government; aud a cause which MUST
be kept down. Then let Tuscarawas
do her duty; call meeting of her cit-
liens within three or fonr weeks, and
organize every township for a warm

The MARE 81 CoLT.-Our friend Cur
zig, who address, ed the Wing meeting in
The Court House on Friday evening last
got hold Of the wrong end Of the story
about The old m.re and coli. The true
story run: Once OIL a time, an lrIsh-
nan undertook TO convey himself and
ls mare and colt across The Ohio river
n Aal boat. BY some misfortune,
he boat upset, and all three, man, mare
md colt, were thrown into The Ohio rv-
"r. The man could MOI swim, tnere-
fore no seizes hold of The colts tail,
which, being rather skl,tish, dill MOI
'eem able 10 carry his load 10 the shore.
and frequently sunk, leaving only the
lips OF his nose and ears above the wa
ter. The old mare at first pushed
through The water with great ease. The
people upon the shore become ufraid
the man and his col, would both drown
aud urged him 10 let 20 Of the colt and
catch the old mares tail. But the man
happened 10 know tha, the mare had the
heaves and could not stand II long. So
he cried ont, "Faith, my honies, this
IS no time to svnp horses2" And he was
righl-the mare soon began to fail and
floated down the stream. Bnt the coli
gained strength as he gained experience
and finally brought the Irishman safe tc
the shore. "Anah | told ye the col
was the better horse" said Pat, as he
leaped ashore.
The Wings now tell us tina. The coun
Try is sinking, and call upon us to aban'
don Van Buren and seize hold of Gran
ny Harison'S Petlicoat. But the Peo
pie think this is no time to swap horses
and they will cling TO tho eub-,reasur,
