LOCO FOCO yERACITY.

The Paris Sentinel, q country paper pub
lished in Monroe county we believe, makes
the following audacious assertion-void
alike of truth, justice and honor-relative
TO President Harrisons Inaugural Address:
eve sashe gives no aro,ced sentiments Gf he

people at large, particularly the great west, are
interested. For instance. He has been called

lions he is entirely silent upon"
Now, every one who has read Gen.
lIarrison's address, knows the above par
agraph to be fa!se-grossly false-and the
miscreant, who penned the article knows
it to be SO, but, in order to continue the
base SANDERS, against an old and tried pub
lie servant, the pedagogue, who writes for
the Sentinel, with characteristic effrontery,
boldly procams the above shameless false
hood. We did think, after the unsuccessful
attempt of the Loco Foco slaves, to defame
Gen. iiarrison's name and character, be-
fore his triumphant election, that now they
would desist, and not continue an inglorious
warfare: but we have been mstaken-the
cloven foot still shows itself. But we will
merely quote paragraph of Gen. Harri-
sons address, to show the true character
Of the bastard who penned the above SEN
tcnce.
Our con!ederacy, fellow citizens, can only be
preserved by the same forbearance. Or citizens
must BE content ,cih the exercise of the po,cers

attempt Of those of one State 10 control the domes-

ultimate destruction Of orr free institutions. Our
Coniederacy is perfectly illustrated by the terms
and principles governing common partnership.

Who desires a more dccisive--a more
explicit declaration of opinion and princi-
pie than the above paragraph. Gen. Har-
rison IS equally explicit and plain in all
other important matters; and still this little

Harrison "gives no avowed sentiments"
