which they are making; the Unexpected tricks 70 "h'ch

representations, which they eh,pio{mIri;ag

the Herald be- astonished ut the vigilance we exert
When we see our political citadel assaed by robbers

Wing in its devices 1t dees not hesitate to assert that

"The Loco Foco press in OHIO, having counted up
the Abolition vote for Harrison in that State, found 1t

The fact that every Van Buren, man, the Van Buren,
Legislature of Ohio, voted against the following resp

OF similar character is the trick, now playing by
the Wings of Stafford They place the doors of
all the Wing merchants in Falmouth printed paper,
pretending TO give the expenses Of the Government
under Mr.. Adanss administration, and under MIR. Van
Burens, without the slightest explanation of the facts
which produced the difference They say nothing of the
expences Of the Florida war; the extingushmcn of the
Indian land titles the 10 millions appropriated to be
used in the event of difficulties with England (but not
cent of it touched) Again the Wings circulat
ing statements of what would have been the result of
Clay's Land Bill, had il become law-giving what
each State would be entitled to, and then each county,
and each MISUNDERSTANDING entirely out of view what
each individual county, and Southern State would
have to pay in the shape of increased tariff to raise
the very money, which would be taken from the Urea
sury for the proceeds ofhe public lands. Wevery be-
leve that reckless and desperate faction
existed in Amerca-one which pursues such mschlcv-
Gus ends by such ignoble this mongre Wing
