doubts upon this subject, now say that my r
iit'cal opinions have undergone thorough chang
and though for many years consistent Jacks
and Van Buren, man am now \ Democrat
Wing, and am SO for tho reason that have BET
deluded by the selfstyled Democrats. While
never wavered in casting my vote FOR the Loo
Foco party, often had doubts as to the correc
ness Of their policy; but these were always mt
by the promise that il 1 would have patience thes

people (of which am one) by putting down the
Tariff, and refusal to distribute the proceeds OIL

many other things persisted in Ivy the party to
which long adhered, have determined ME, at the
ensuing elections, to vote for Pratt, Clay and Ere
Enghuysen and all the rest of the Wing candi-
dates to be supported in the county at the coming
elections, for County, State and National oflicersI
