2 "Gipe the Locofocos no breaking time until No
rember," is the motto of the whigs. and it is utter
I'd in the true spirit Of the party of Coonskn and
Hard Cider no.oriety. They design taking this
State with rush prouided al,cays, if they can.
They stand pledged to "speak the State down"
If great number of biped Dind insirumenis can
accomplish their patriotic object that party have
it in their power to do so; but that the
democracy of this State are not made of such ligh
materials as to be moved by every passing blast of
pind.
Relying upon its strength, the democratic party
is reposing at idle case, whilst the enemy Is up
and doing. This is as it should not be; we are
upon the owe of great contes-n great battle is to
be fought one that is of as much importance to our
country. institutions and to posterity, the one
gained on Bunker's Hill or at New Orleans when
our Jackson covered himself and the American
arms with imperishabIe glory. 1t is contest of
principle-our institutions are at stake. 1t il for
power-the few will endeavour to wrest it from
the many. Tho success of the Wings will be the
overthrow of democratic institutions, for which
our fathess fought and under which our country
has passed from infancy to the vigor of manhood;
and we trust that the young giant is too strong to
be shackled and pinioned down, and too wary to
be cajoled by honied language and fattering pro-
misses for the future, and ensnared by designing
Federalism. ..sa ...
Let US organise, it is time to "gird on our ar.
mour and prepare for the fight" The enemy is
organizing-they have unfurlod their banners and
their battalions and squadrons are wheeling into
line for the battle. ... "
Then let us prepare for the fight; we know the
caliber Of our foes; we know how to meet them.
They are forming their "Clay Clubs" then let
US form democratic Associations" Tho enc.
my is enlisting the puerie and wavering of our
forces, and hope by the aid of those mercenary
Swiss to gain the battle.
1t is time that we should sscall the roll" to know
Of the missing if any there are. We should raj.
ly the veterans who desert their colors; and
nothing will 50 efsctualy aid US in this object, as
the organization Of Democratic Associations
Our brethren East Of the Mississippi and in the
eastern part of this State have commenced this
mode of operations, and we with proper Difference
to the party, suggest that follow their example.
We see no good reason why Democratic Associa.
tons cannot be formed in oil the townships in
every county, where every true democrat should
enrol his name and lend his aid in the good cause.
Then let us orsanize-let US form our Demo.
cratic Associations and wheel them into the prca,
nhnlanr NJ darnoe-.~,-.L--i l.. A. c------,--.,,
upon MS with rush with their light troops and
we will repel the shock without breaking our
ranks, with three loud huzzas for our country and
our institutions. ..
A call is made in this days paper, for the de.
mocrats Of Crawford to assemble on the 2s,h
and organize, we hope it will be needed and well
attended. ........
r We hope soon to hear that "old Washington -
and the neghboring counties are moving in the
same good way.
