against the misrule of those, whose maladminis-
tration has been such as to drive into COM
mon support of the opposing candidate, men
so much opposed 10 each other. And it is an
argument in itself unanswerabe, in behalf Of
4 Gen. Harrison, that all these conflicting ele-
ments unite on him with common confidence,
and give him their voluntary suffrage, with no
other commitment on his part than, the histo-
nv of his public service, and no other guaran-
tee, than his unimpeached patriotism and in
tegrity. These are indeed, signs as encourage
ing as they are gratifying-encouragi be-
cause they are an earnest Of success-and gra-
flying not only because they are an earnest of
success, but because that success will be a tri-
umph over the selfish and sectional feelings
which tend to sever those who should be united
in the maintenance of that independence and
public liberty, which was purchased by the
blood of our fathers.
There are some truths about which there is
chanan admit that scarcity of money will re-
duce wages-ls money scarce and are wages
low? If these questions are answered in the
affirmative, we would then ask the laborng
man why is it so! Why is it that he cannot
get employment Why is it that no one now
thinks of building house; and why are the
willing hands idle all the day long?
Is this affection sent upon us for our sins' Is
it because the people have worshipped the idol
which they set up, as the work OF their own
hands? Who can read the eloquent appeal of
the Prophet Isaiah and not feel how applicable
it is to our condition as nation? He says;
Hear, o Heavens, and give ear earth, for
the Lord hath spoken, | have nourished and
brought up children, and they have rebeled
against me.
The OK knoweth his owner, and the ass his
masters crib but Israel doth not know, my
people doth not consider.
All, sinful nation, a people laden with ini-
guilty, a seed of evil doors, children that are
corupters; They have forsaken the Lord, they
have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto
anger, they are gone away backward.
Why should you be stricken any more? Ye
will revolt more and more; the whole head is
sick and the whole heart is faint.
From the sole of the foot even unto the head
there is no soundness in it; but wounds and
bruises and purifying sores: they have not
been closed, neither bound up, neither Modified
with ointment,
Your country is desolate, your cities are
burned with fire, your land, strangers devour
it in your presence, and it is desolate as over
thrown by strangers"
And again, pursuing the same subject he says:
"Wash you, make you clean; put away the
evil Of your doings from before mine eyes
cease to do evil learn to do well; such judg-
ment, relieve the oppressed, Judge the father
us reason together saith the Lord: Though
your sins be as scarlet they shall be as white
as snow; though they be red like crimson they
shall be as WOOL
If We be willing and obedient, we shall eat the
good of the lands
But if We refuse and REBEL we shall be de-
voured with the sword, for the mouth of the
Lord hath spoken it.
How is the faithful city become harlot: it
was full of Judgment; righteousness lodged in
it; but noo murderers.
Thy silver is become dross-thy wine mixed
with waler
Thy princes are rebellious and companions
of THIEVES, every one loueth gifts, and fol
ioweth after REV ARDS: they Judge not the
latherless, neither doth the cause of the widow
come unto them.
Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of Hosts,
the mighty one of Israel, All, will ease me of
mine anniversaries, and avenge me of mine ene-
mics:
And will turn my hand upon thee, and
purely purge away thy dross, and take away
all thy tin:
And will restore thy Judges as at the first.
and thy CounseIlors as at the beginning: after.
wards thou shalt be called, the City of Righte.
BUSINESS the faithful city,
