following preamble and resolutions:
Whereas We some time since saw pub
lished in the EIillsboronsh Recorder he
proceedings cf she two Bank Federal
Wing meetings held NJ John 8. Tuuen-
6~s's aad Abel GrifIis's store. At solh Of
which charge was made against M.
Hawkins and w. Montgomery Cor hav-
ing las they say) published false charge
against General Harrison relative 10 he
seiliag law, which not only provides for
selling poorwhiie men FOR fines and costs,
but also land alarmingly TOOL poor white
women; and whereas a public call has
bren made through the salse organ Cor the
proof Of their most infamous charge or
assertion, and refusal on their pzri 10
give il; we, therefore, have met 20 carry
out in good faith the sih resolution adopt
ed ut a Democratic district meeting held
at M.Cray's store in May last. and hurl
back the living and infamous fslsehood
into the teeth Of those who made il.
Be il therefore Resolved,
First, That we believe in the right OF
The people tncall upon their public ser
wants Tor such Information As they may
desire, and when such demand is made Of
him he Is bound TO obey.
Second, That we have seen The circu-
lar letter Of M. Hawkins and w. Mont
gomery compared with the journals Of
Ohio and laws OF Indiana, from which
authority they spoke in obedience 10 .
pressing call made BY portion Of their
constituents, and find that il corresponds
and reads word Cor word, thereby being
true and correct copy.
Third, That since the publication Of
the circular letter Of Nj. Hawkins and w.
Montgomery, we have ever believed that
il contained and conveyed the true senii.
menis Of Gen. Harrison, as expressed by
the journals themselves; and now we see
and have the fact Of our belief verified
from the highest authority. his votes on
The journals Of Ohio, and his signature 10
the laws Of Indiana.
Fourth, That the lying and Infamous
charge attempted 10 be palmed on NJ. H.
and w. NJ. by these two Federal Wing
meetings. at which j. johnson and ].
Boon presided as chairmen. ard John s.
Tunentine. Abel Sriiars, Abel Grifis, and
III. Crawford acted as secretaries. 70 pen
down base and corrupt falsehoods, pro
pagated by some Of the more efficient and
reckless demagogues. ought 10 be hurled
down into the foul threats from whence il
came, and where we believe a goodly
number of similar nature might very
soon be propagated and thrown out for a
similar purpose, which we believe was 10
cheat an innocent, free, and honest peo-
pie. ... ~-. 49,
Fifth, That the proceedings of this
meeting be signed BY the chairman and
secretary, and sent 10 the Hillsborough
Recorder, Standard. North Caroliniar.
and Globe, for publication.
