AS the whole system OF Ftd.ra Wing politics is a
fraud upon the people, it will bccomc cur duty to cX-
pose it from time time, that those who desire truth
and facts as they are for themselves, and
| pose the cheat few days since, we had IN the
Journal shout of applause from North Carolina, tor
Harrison Such articles got to deceive the peo-
Pile hcre--no one his senses, suppose for mo-
ment, that candidate taken expressly TO get the sup
port of the Abotonists, can ever receive the sup
port OF the South, and much less ought he to re-
ceive the support Of the North; would be the
greatest sufferers, if the negroes Of the South were
turned loose upon US The wor;ing-mcn 0: The NORTH
States have deep interest al stake III this abolition
game Free the negroes the South, and our towns
aud villages would swarm with Liacks, degrading labor
where they could gel il, and stealing and robbng where
they could not But to object; which - 10 prove
bv facts that all the noise about Harrison in the South
is Federal humbug. We first copy from the Richmond
Enquirer
But, if the Richmond Enquirer is not satisfactory
evidence 10 The Opposition, give them the language
Of their presses First extract from the pfehS-
burg Wig, the leading and most able Wing paper IN
Mississippi:

"Ey glance at our columns this morning The reader WI see

the Wings upon him. II esa"ot be doEs.'
The Raymond (NIissssirp) Times also breaks out
agains, the nomination Of Harrison, as follows:
Ths nomination will moi take in this quarter With Henry
Clay candidate. nigh; have had hopes Of Ms
spp but with Harrison, 1t would therefore,
sent" "
So much for the South Harrison will not get vote
in the South Southwest. We feel confident that
he will lose Kentucky also, be confident Of
any thing that has not happened. The Richmond En-
gurer puts Vrgna down at from 10 to 600 majority
against Harrison. And we assure the whole Union,
thatin Ohio and Indiana the only Western States where
the friends of Harrison have the least hope that
the popularity of Mr. Van Buren, is daily on the ad-
vance, and our friends were never in higher hopes
Depend upon IT, that the Democrats Of Ohio and Ind
ana will Fight the battles of $780, with an energy and
unanmity never before witnessed in either State VIC
have IN both States defined our position-we have
taken onr stand on principles immuabe as the hills,
and planted upon them, feel strong bold, and i'm
patient for The onset. The people feeling the ef
ecs of the rotten federal system Of debts and credits
OF States and corporations, and they will correct it
far as possible. The Federalsts have not tenabe po
ston TO stand on-no an inch of ground that will sup.
port them This is evident by the paucitv of their re-
solutions at all their meetings.
