States where il can possibly have an effect.
A creature called Niles, has been "solected
from the people," 10 I'LL Kendsll's place as
Postmaster General, who, IT tho writer esti-
mates hin, truly, will be willing and ready to
do any thing required of MIN by his masters,
and tho Post Office department will be made
the means, through its officers, Of conveying
the Extra Globe into every nook and corner
of the United Stutcs--whilo the Wing pa
pors, if necessary, will be prevented from
reaching their destination, especially as the
Presidential election approaches.
The writer would most earnestly recon-
mend to the Wing party that paper should
be established at some central point by the
friends Of liberty, for tho express purpose OF
countsracting the poison which will inovltn-
bly, bc infused by the writings Of Kendall

to it must be discovered d, when too late, that
thousands and tens Of thousands Of honest
and well disposed men will be induced to re-
main at home, if not to act against the wing
cause at the general election, and who, if fur
nished with correct information, would have
yielded it hearty support. 1t is among the
grea, body Of the people in the country where
information is required. A very cursory OBJ
seryation will convince most men that moth
ing is TO be gained by circulating Information
| in large towns or cities. In those places
information with regard TO the true state OF
things cannot be reudily suppressed, and the
characters Of the men in those places, who
supper, the present administration, las
general rulc) show that it is from want oi
principle, rather than the want OF knowledge,
that influences their conduct-but it is moi
so among the farmers and laborers in many
parts of the country. Party lines are not
always drawn there by the character OF tho
individuals, and in some sections there are
probably as many honest and well meaning
men in one party US in tho other ;-and all
they want is correct information. Kendall
can exert an immense influence over the
minds of such mon. From their limited op-
portuniy of acquiring information, they can
form no conception OF such false and hypo-
critical character, aud they are readily de-
ceived. by the plausible productions Of his
pen, which certainly are most ably written,
however false they may be. lie has the tai.

IN Honorable Opponent.-ihe Cincinna,
Advertiser aud Western Journal, a very de-
cldod Van Buren, paper, says:

General Harrison Is not very rich man.
lie has been honest in his dcaIIngs-hc has
been faithful III all the public ofliccs lie has
held--and ho has not taken those advantages
he might have done, without the violation Of
any duty but by too much confidence IN those
lie trusted, has lost much valuable property"
! his placing too much confidence in others
is characteristic of the whole life Of the man
-hls native goodness Of heart has ever
prompted him to bcrricud all who claimed his
aid. This is one among many other REASONS
why he is personally so popular in the West (:

sUP There is no better evidence OF
the gloomy prospects ofthe Locos, than
their wholesale, unmeasured abuse OF
Gen. Harrison, at this early stage OF
tho Presidential contest. They find in
him a competitor 80 formidable, that
nothing which their depraved souls can
invent, calculated to degrade and lower
him in the estimation Of the people, is
wanting to accomplish their object
Their presses, almost without exception,
from one end ofthe country to the other,
are full Of the lowest and most scurIil-
Gus falsehoods and abuse, not only as
regards his public, brilliant career,
but his private and domestic transac-
tions in life. A party driven to such
desperate means, must indeed be in
truly desperate condition. The high
and unsullicd character Of Gen. Harri-
son, will not however, suffer by thei
lies, nor his elevation to the Presidency
be rendered any tho less certain. &c
on, then, ye shameless locos, and abuse
him to your hearts content. "Tht
day of reckoning" be assured, is sat
hand" with you.
