THE LOCO FOCO S FATE CONVENTION ON
TEXAS.
Resolved, That we feel TO re- oIcc exceedingly and
10 congratulate tho democracy and the country upon
the action of the Texan Congress upon the PROPOSE

Of the certain prospect Of the speedy consumnation

We put it to every freeman Of Vermont do you Gre

vote the Ticket the dough faces will ask you TO carry
up TO the baot-box! All ego it," and PUT

But IL you a freeman BEWARE!
COARSE WOOL. II it be true, as the Polkites a.
yer that wool Of quality competing with comes
in under the low duty coarse il is also true that
the custom officers allow it thus TO come and it shows
the enmty Of the Polk party to protection well as
the CORFU tion Of their administration; FOR the law
saws when such wool mixed with coarse is attempted
20 be brought in under the low duty, the whole lot
shall pay the highest duty! If is mixed the officers
can see t-irit is all fine, they see ii nso-and
in in each case exact the duty required by law. If
then the big stories told by the Albany Argus
true, they prove the basest frauds upon the Custom
House officers Of their paryan not the ineilicen

A WORD OF CAUTION. We learn from
eral towns where the regular Polk party have no
hope Of electing town Representatives, and where
there may possibly be Sd party men enough to foil
the Wings, il has been agreed between the leading
Pokites and the leading Sd party men, that the latter
shall put in nomination thorough ocofoco Sd party
man. and the former, after the LIST trial, will vote for
him! This game attempted to he played in
many towns last year, And what is the eiect?-
Why, to lead Off wing Sd party men TO vote for loco
focos-or in other words, to cheat them into voting
for locofocos--for such they sure to act-oth
erwse the Polkites would not vote for them Where
ia the Wing abolitions who is willing TO be swinded
in this way7

"In the county of Richland, about tro hundred thou
sand pounds Of wool have been sold during the pres
ent season at average price Of 30 cents per pound
making sum total for wool in Rchland Of about
sirty thousand dollars.
This the Journal says is 80 and 40 per cent. higher
than it sold there two years ago. And, we doubt
not, if Polk did not threaten the Tariff this same
wool would have sold for or cents more per
pound He threatens to strip the manufacturers Of
woolens of protection. and they dare not give high
