illegal votes were thrown for tho
Wings, and that party have the dis
grace Of introducing ''pipe laying" in,
in our country. Blu, Why does the
Republican go to Baltimore for a list
of illegal voters? We q furnish
him with a list nearer at baad, under

fains Of the whig party. The re-
cords OF the country show that a large
majority of the Whis members of
Congress of coon notoriety. held their
places by frauds upon the ballot box.
The very next 1.-THE present) Congress
shows about two democrats to one
whig, evidently proving that the
wings were returned by "pipe lay
ing" in many instances. There is
but little doubt tina, teeir log cabin
President was made in the same way;
and there is no doubt but that they
viii make another this present month
by the same means, If allowed.
Plpe-laying. perjury, fraud. bribery
and every species Of iDiquity, backed
10y the grossest humbug, is a part of
the whig creed. They do not be-
lieve the people capable Of selfgov-
eminent, and hence their motto, "all
is fair in politics." The Republican
thinks, by singing a svren song about
fraudulent voting by the Democrats to
divert public attention from the ras-
calIty of the illegal volors in its own
ranks. Democrats! watch them mar
rowIy, and do let them slip in six
illegal wing votes while they arc III
vesligatlDg one legal Democratic
vote. Wing DULLES will be very
plenty on Monday next. Demo-
Gratis, pay no attention - their swag-
gering; it is part of their nature. =
Remember that St. Louis is not the
State, and that if we can prevent
whig "pipe.laying" in this county, we
will soc show the federal party
where they stand. Remember Client
worth, Bella Badger, and Major Swift:
all notorious Wing ''pipe-layers."
