SIR:--I am one of the many who have heretofore
supported the whig ticket and who are becoming not
only disguised but alarmed at the handed measures
of federalism The shocking debauch Of 1sl0--lhe
broken prUmises-tiIe revolutionary disruption Of our
Legisatuethe Incarceration OF Dorr for advocating
principles predcatcd on the Declaration OF Indepen-
pence-and last, but not least the papape identity of
Ike wings with the native party in the east, have deter
mined me 10 abandon the wings now and forever. ]
therefore go Tor Polk and Texas Dallas and Oregon,
Tod and Victory. -

s. Afedary We propose, through the medium OF
your paper TO make known 10 our fellow men the rea
sons Of our change of views in regard 10 politics. We
know that we are fallibe creatures and are liable TO
err and we have lately been convinced that there are
men of proessedy high standing who are always ready
10 take advantage credulity, andtryto hoax or de-
ceive enough 10 sustain them in their verbosy. Thus
we ourselves have been delGded and yet longer have
we been blinded 10 our own interest by the rash prom
ses that were made-the verifcalion Of which poving
In vain, we were compelled to cok into matters, upon
which we were likewise compelled to make recanta-
tion and say that we have been fighting against our
selves or the yeomanry of our country, of which
claim 10 be part. But to be brief, our reasons for
leaving the whg ranks and enlisng under the banner
OF democracy are because we want to buy our neces-
say articles cheap possible; but if our manufac-
turers OF New England must be projected by such tar
if as proposed by our former pretended whig friends,
then it mtst be done at the expense of the farmer.
Another reason is that we would ra ther be ruled by
moral men, than by bloody duelists or gamblers.
Another is, that we want 10 know achen we have
money without paying the the tender, lightfngered
naoob for telling weekly whether it is yet money Or
not.
And we oppose any man that goes against the annex
alton OF Texas. Therefore, we go heart and hand for
Polk and Dallas.

COl MedarA or the Ed. of The Thomas Jefferson Xenia:
We, the undersigned naluralized foreigners, who vo-
ted for Harrison in l940 in Green county, Ohio have
| come to The conclusion 10 vote for Col. POLK. We
believe Mr. Clay and the whole whig party enemies to
the foreigners and We do think it essential for every for
egner who does not want to wear the irons of slavery
for twenty one years. 10 vote the Col Polk ticket who
is the friend Of the oppressed.
