the Wing gain will be more than that.
CIRCULAR,
| Ofthe UIhig Central Committee of Maryland,
| to the HhigS Qfthe United States, in refer
eIlce to the Infamous Conspiracy Of the Loco
| FocoS against the election of Uiliam Henry
Harrison.
| The Wing Central Committee of the State OF
Maryland, feel it to be their duty to put their
Wing brethren throughout the Union upon their
guard against the DIABOLICAL. CONSPI-
RACY which has been got up with view to
defeat the election of General Harrison. For
tunately the plot Of the conspirators has been
discovered sufficiently early to enable those
whom it was intended to Inure to expose its
wickedness and Illustrate its purpose. Still
more fortunately has it happened that the bad
men who have planned this moral treason against
the people have not been able to carry out their
system of subornation and perjury OF witnesses
so fully as to accomplish the whole extent of
their hagiiious design. If James B. Glentworth,
J the principal witness upon whom they relied,
| could have been bribed to execute their wish,
the conspirators would have successfully, per-
haps, assaulted the characters of some of the Pu-
rest men in our republic, hoping, upon their
DOWNFALL to strike fatal blow at the integrity
of the whole Wing party of the United States.
Providence has guarded the intended victims
against the fiendish assault, and saved us from
| the deep stain which these wretched plotters
would have placed upon the honor of our coun-
try.
For some time past the Globe has been indus
| triously preparing the public for the plot which
| is now developed. That organ of the Presi-
dents opinions-the production of the Presi-
dents bosom friend and late cabinet counsellor,
Amos Kenaall-has suffered no occasion to pass
by without charging the wings, IN every
election which has taken place, the distinct i'm
putation of fraud as the only means by which
they could possibly have succeeded in overthrow
ing the self-styled Democratic party, which
have bound themselves to the cause Of Martin
Van Buren,. The late Attorney General of the
United States, another confidential adviser and
near friend of the President, Benz. +. Butler,
has recently announced before the people of n.
York that the President had ga Last Card' in
his hand, which he doubtless supposed would be
found sufficiently powerful to retrieve his bro
ken fortunes; and throughout the Union both
parties have waited in anxious suspense for some
Signal and decisive stratagem, which was to lift
up the one from its despair and cover the Other
with confusion.
THE CARD HAS BEEN PLAYED. 1t i:
neither more nor less than the Ubiquitous device
the character of which will be seen in the affida
Wit of that despicable tool Of the faction in New
York, J. d. Stevenson, whose own confession
presents him in light which must deprive hin
of all credit with respectable men, the pimp ant
panGer of his party, and whose miserable false
hoods are contradicted not only by the testimon,
of the persons he sought to iniure, but also b
the very witness on whom he relied to sustai
his charge.

right and virtuous citizens has recoiled with tie
