FORGERY-ANOTHE LAST CARD
A letter from New York. received in this CT
tv Yesterday, enclnses a handbill issued from the
Office of the NftO Era, Van Buren, paper,
though ptuportiHg to come from the Eman-
cipat0r, an abolition paper. The letteEto which
is affixed the name of w. II. HGr1Tsea, is A
BASE FORGERY.-GEN.H HARRISON au-
thorises us to pronounce it sucI and to say,
moreover, thathe NEVER WROTE ALET-
TER, OF ANY KIND to Messrs. Tappan,
LeaveH and Dresser.
Fellow citizens What are we coming to-
What win not trick, perjury, forgery, crime of
any die, essay to carry out political purposes?
When will this career ofvillany be stayed--un-
less you rise in your might and FROWN IT
DOWN? This is no mere party matter 1t aims
a much deeper and more deadly blow! II strikes
at every thing good and holy. Ii would break
dozen all correct moral perceptions. and CON
FOUNDall distinction between rirtWe aud rice,
TRUTH AND FALSEHOOD! It the regu-
lar advance ofLocofoeoism! Read:--although
shallow device, ii should be read.
[ Is t. every man of ordinary reelection, evil
IDENTIFY made up of stale newspaper ISLANDERS, ha-
wing no resemblance to Gen. Hanison's style
ormanner. The letter to which that attributed
to Gen. Harrison is reply, purports to be
signed by j. Leavett, and to declare his oppo
sition TO Van Buren,, and TO third party ticket,
when i! is well known that he is Van Buren,
man, and has been ardently engaged in all the
Western Abolition Conventions TO get up the
third party ticket. The whole trick it is at once
apparent is intended to operate against General
Harrison in the South. But the Southern peo-
pie, il will be found, age not so green as to be
deceived by such paltry humbug. Read
it,
EMANCIPATION EXTRA.
We hasten to lay before our readers the fol-
lowing interesting correspondence. 1t speaks
for ITSELF And in accordance with the views
therein expressed, we shall remove from our
next paper the name of James Birney for Pres
ident, and substitute that of General William
Henry Harrison. And we hope that all of our
abolition friends will use their exertions To ele-
vate 10 the Presidency one who is Gas will be
seen) pledged to carry out some of the most
prominent and essential views of the friends of
the African race.-All who may receive this
circular will be doing service 10 a good cause
by giving it as extensive circulation as pos
sible.

! William Henry Harrison
Sir:-The subscribers having been appoint
ed Committee of Correspondence" on the
pom vi idI &c hummer OF your ielloN' CltlL@fS,
to communicate with you on subject Of vital
Importance, we think, to numerous and rapi-
diy, increasing party in the free States of the
Union. The time is near at hand when the
choice Of the people of this country will fall
upon you for the office of President, or upon
the present incumbent.
You are probably aware that the Abolition
lists of this State have nominated candidates
for President and Vice president of their own;
still there are many, and ourselves among the
number, who deem it unadvisabe TO run a sepa-
rate ticket, when they well know that by so
doing, il only insures the electionof Mr. Van
Buren,, whose views on the subject ofslavery
are so entirely hostile to our own, that we
should look upon his re election as grievious
public calamity. We must then, as a party,
choose between yourself and our nominated
ticket and if we could be assured that your
views of the evils of slavery accord with our
own, and that you would use your official sta
ton TO abolish so great an evil, at least IN the
District, we should almost to a man, drop our
own ticket, and unite our entire strength upon
yours.
You will excuse our franlzness and candor;
the deep interest we feel on this all important
subject must be our apology. An early reply
is urgently requested.
Your obedient and very humble servants,
ARTHUR TAPPAN,
J. LEAvETT,
H. DRESSER,
