This sum subracled from the whole amount of the
debt, would probably leave between sixty and sew
enty thousand dollars to be be paid by some other
means. But two methods present themselves to
our minds, for cancelling this balance-one is by
direct taxa,ion,ho other, by the State calling in
from the several towns, such portion of the surplus
fund as would be requisite to accomplish This OBJ
ject, and approprating the same for that purpose.
We have thus, fellow citizens, endeavored can
didy and frankly to give You the true situation of
the fiscal concerns of the State, and confidently
trust that the subject will be found of sufficient i'm
porlance TO command your serious consideration.
1t remains now for you to determine in what way
the State debt shall be disposed of, and also what
method shall be adopted to bring the annual ex-
penditures, within the ordinary revenue of the
Statc-all of which is respectfully submitted.

From all parts of the State we hear The most

From all parts Of the State we hear the most
gratifying accounts of the progress Of democracy.
Champaign is any thing but popular with the old
farmers. They prefer one of their own kilh and
kin one Of the real tow-frock-and- home~spun-
trousers-lords of the soil, to a wool specuator
and regular descendant of John Adams federal
ism. This is as it should be; it is as we expected
1t would be. The farmers can now see how well
they have been hunbugged by the Champaign
party. They have wheeded and befooled and
lattered them by keeping in nomination sold far
mer Jenson," till they judged the yeomanry to
be so far sunken in the mire willingly and tamely
to submit to the nomination of the greatest enemy
they have in the State, and then, they are forced
into the support of the great SPECTATOR of the State.
Col. Paine has specuIated upon, and grown rich
out of the labors Of the farmers of the State. He
has taken advantage of their necessities, and the
hard times, and compelled them to sell him their
wool at one half its real value and put the enor-
nous profits into his own pockets, He is one of
the most complete and perfect aristocras that the
State affords, He has neither love, sympathy, or
respect for the hard handed yeomanry whose sup
port he asks. And what would the old farmers
gain by making him GOVERNOR lie would be the
Governor of a set of Burlington Arislocrats He
would give them plenty of fresh fish and cham
paign. lie would have the lords of the State about
his dinner table, flrng sumpuOusy, while the sun
burnt old farmer might eat his grub when and where
he could find it,

AIR" Upon The steps he turned"
Close by his pond he turned,
And heaved heartfelt sigh,
For The news about old Rutland, oh
Swept like whrlwind by;
lie thought upon his title and
His salary per year, -...
And the Colonel looked upon his fish
And wiped away tear.
About the Watchman office
The Paineites stood in bands,
The Herald and the awful Voice
Were trembling in their hands,
But as they read about the Judge,
The stronger grew their fear,
And the Colonel groaned in sympathy
And wiped away a tear.
He turned and left the spot,
Oh do not deem him weak,
For dauntless is the Colonel's heart
And brazen is his check;
Yet both were blanched with fear
Both felt the coming storm,
And he tried to drown the wild hurrah,
Of Smile and Reform!
But all alas it would not do,
From Windham to the Lake
The winds of heaven cried Champaign ~
The people are awake;
He turned to Mortified, sick at heart,
AS fast as he could pull,
And hid his sorrows, and his face
Deep in fleece of wool.
