MEssRs. WALToNs - My attention was recent

Spirit of the Age giving the following as he 3" sub

"EAsT RANDoLPH-1642.
DEAR Sir You must send 100 copies of the

If every one was as we'll acquainted with the
Infamous character OF the editor of that lying
print as am, | should not deem il worth while
to contradict so improbable falsehood but, as
all do no. know Caleb Gammage Eastman, beg
leave TO say through the medium of your paper,
that the article is totally false in every respect.

l never wrote or sent to Mr. Morrill, or any oiher
person to send the Waterman or any other paper

was never to nay knowledge The least ground for
any evsn 10 conjecture that ever wrote sent
such a message,

Whigs ever True q!

Never hns the honesty, integrity and patriotism
OF any men been more severely tried than in the
case Of the Wing majority in Congress. Remem-
Der the bills to regulate the currency and exchun.
ges what sacrifices TO meet the views of the Ex-
ecutive, what concessions to save something
which would bring relief 10 the country-and yet
how foiled by thut ROYAL ACT, which was sus-
tanned by the mis-called democracy. Remember
the LAND BILL: compelled to admit the sus.
pending clause, in order to save the bill from the
Veto power, the Wings yielded rather than sacri-
fee the rights Of the states. Remember the liule
Tariff blll-in that distribution was suspended,
and yet the VETO, backed up by the locofocos,
killed it Remember the recent Unprecedented
efforts and sacrifices TO secure a PROTECTIVE
TARIFF. A portion OF the v hig party at the
South are anti protective locofOcoism en- masSe
confessed with them, so that the real majority Of
the Wings was reduced to bartly four. Any neg
leci, any mis.sep, however trfng, might defeat
tho bill but the Wings nobIy carried il through,
but unhnppily to fall under the ruthless hand OF
the Iyrant, whose veto was again unanimously ap
proved by the locofoco party. Could men do
more! Could more sacrifices he made Ought
more to be done 10 conciIiate the throne 1t was

The following has been handed to us by Mr..

writer
FRIEND BuRLEIGH,--For a few weeks past |
have received a paper entitled " The Peoples Adj
vocnte," purportIng TO he printed at Montpelier,
W., which understand is edited at Concord, ~
H., published at Boston, Mass, and dated at Mont
peher, W. If The foregoing he true, it is evident
ly fraud, and probably intended to cheat the
"People." Now look with suspicion upon any
thing of political character, coming from the
Granite Hills, the land of an .Atherton. n state at
least as much welded to slavery any in the
Union. Ii seems to me that this paper being cir
culalcd among us gratuitously, just at this time,
has less the good ofthe cause Of Abolition in view
than The advancement of party which has al
ways been deadly hostile to The cause OF Adolf
ton, both IN Congress and out
My object ia wiring this article, is not parcu-
larry to attack the character OF that paper, but bare
ly to suggest to the editor of that paper and its
liberal friends, that the snnderous reports and un-
Justifabe eants and attacks upon the character of
Gov. Paine, rs published in the paper referred to
above, are calculated TO injure him most where he
is least known.
have been acquainted with Col. Paine about
twenty years, since he came into this ,swll,
and have lived within about half u mile of his
factory, and have ever considered him an honora-
BILE and an upright man, and one whose character
10 above the attacks and ca!umny OF his political
traducers.
1t appears to me that this paper is calculated, be-
ing circulated among US just at this time, to adj
vance the political claims of man who has noun
ted two hobbies, which are far from having any
affinity the one to the other, and are wholly ncon
gruous in their character-and cannot he united
to subserve the interests of an aspiring political
officeseeker.
have long been warm friend OF the cause of
Abolition OF slavery IN our country, but cannot
approve of the course taken by "The PEOPLES
Advocate in attacking the character of Governor
Paine, believing as do, in addition to what have
already stated, and that too from personal CONVEX
satiou with him, that he is the decided friend of
the down troddsn slave and of the cause of Abo-
lilion. Respectfully yours, NATH'L JONES.
