Tie Coon BreG5.-We understand,
It made its appearance in Richmond
County, to crowd of about % specta-
tors-when Mr.. Elector R. T. Daniel
addressed them, and fsked up a spec
linen Of the bread from the pocket of a
bystander. What a magician is the
"Sole Author" How he can put in
and bring out the materials of his art
and when he got the bread in hand,
with what pathos did he hold it up,
and tell the admiring people-Such is
the bread you will come to, unless YOU
support the Tariff and Clay.
This precious bread is, however,rather
scarce. A Democratic wag carried
loaf oft from Portsmouth to Hampton
and made great deal of fun out of
it. He broke it up into pieces, and
distributed the fragments among the
Loco Focos, who will carry it to their
homes, commend itto the lips of the
Coons, and choke them with their own
humbug.-Enqtifer.

States and on Monday next we Of Virginia
will follow them. The time is short! Lei
every Democrat grid himself for the combat,
and as the Wolverines say. "come to town
with their pockets full of rocks, that is, with
a Ticket with POLK AND DALLAS on
it.
Sentinel of the valley. [volume] (Woodstock, Va) 1841-1848, 1844-10-31

ExAMINE YOUR TICKETs.-Let ev-
cry man examine his ticket before vo-
ting, and see that he has the right one;
let every Democrat be certain that he
has a ticket with Polk AND DALLAS
at its head, and that it has the names
of the proper Electors on it. Be not
deceived with the coon-skin tickets;
they will no doubt be presented to you
as Republican, or Democratic Repubk-
can Waig ticket. You know that the
coons have taken to themselves all the
party names, and try thus to deceive
those who have never taken the trou-
BILE to enquire into the history of the
federal party--a party, whose serpen-
tine windings, Protean shapes, and
chameleon colors, have almost render
ed its identity, as party, task too
laborious for even the most accomplish
ed politician.

DREADFUL HUaaICAGE At HAVANA.

DREADFUL HURaICAGE At HAVANA.
A slip from the New Orleans Trop.
ic, dated l4th instant, states that there
was dreadful hurricane in Havana
and Matanzas, on the night of the
Attn and morning of the 9th instant,
which destroyed an immense amount
OF property, and many lives were lost.
Let the people remember that Hen.
ny Clay would have sacrificed our lib-
critics for bank charter, during the
extra session oflS42.
Let the people remember that the
the whlg party are pledged by him to
mutilate, destroy and trample upon the
constitution of the United States, by
destroying the veto power.-Pesnsyl-

ARKANsAs.-The wings have a
"uague runaor," that this state has e.
lected coon Governor and a whig
Congressman. This may be SO; but,
in the absence of the official returns,
we look upon the report as merely
'Soily CANNON and fiap-doodle,' to in
fuence the elections. The Globe says
that the Democrats ran two candidates
for Governor; if this be so, it is pos
slble that the whig candidate has been
elected.
The wings have determined to give
the vote of Virginia 70 Henry Clay
To effect this, they have most thorough
ly organised their forces. In view OF
this fact, let no Democrat be found in
gloriously sleeping over his arms on
the day Of election.
Let there be no chatting between
two opinions" let there be no fence
riding on the day Of election; and a.

WAR IS WHIeGERY2-The good

compounded of every ism, scism, and
