Mr. Ceer's presence is demanded by his friends tn
next Lancaster Court, on the 81 Monday in April. W,
believe be is already determined be there but if NOT
hope this public call will decide him.
Mr. Wise has been there, and from what we hear on
Heroded Herod. correspondent, says that Mr.. Wise al
lodged Mr.. Carter be in favor of high Protective Ia
riff" and that Mr. Carter told him so
Either correspondent has Inexperienced Mr.. Wise
Mr.. Wise has grossly misapprehended Mr.. Carter w,
know personally that VI. Carter in favor of high
! Protective Tariff" We know Of our own knowledge
that his opinions upon this subject coinciden with those
of the whole Wing party and the whole Democratic party
may add with the exception of the Free Trade vsiona
mes: that the Revenue necessary for economical Ad-
ministraton Of the Federal Government and no more
ought be raised by Tariff and that within the limits OF
that 1t is both constitutional wise and Just give
incidental mot direct protection the industry OF
country Such Mr. Van Buren's opinions and We
know Of Wing who desires protection pushed
yond this point In fact the American people, with very
nconsderabe exception have settled down upon this COM
promise ground Such are Mr.. Carriers opinions
If Mr.. Wise has represented him otherwise, ne has I'M
questionaby done him injustice.
What does Mr.. Carter say for himself In his first i'd
dress with his characteristic manliness he the ques
ton pumpy and openly, and thus expresses himself
Thirdly am in favor OF judicous Tariff that to
say, Tariff 10 raise sufficient Revenue for economical

Mr. Carriers public and private engagements have much

the Bay and 60 to Accomnc and Northampton. He has
heard that Wings in Charles City coud for
Clay unless Wises charges cleared up and he may
therefore be Charles City on the 27h the day Of election
instead Of Northampton as he first proposed.
We hope Mr.. Carter will, IT possible be Lancaster

Mr. Wise's abuse Of Mr. Clay at Lancaster, correspon
dent says, excessive: "Binggae, ST. Giles and the
Five Points" were nothing to it! Mr.. Wise is dsap

As 10 Henry Clay, Mr. Wise himself has well said in his
Hanover letter, that mans praise odd cubi, to
his STATURE and mans abuse "detract from his immor

this canvass, that Mr. Wise himself not witness to
