A CHOICE ARTICLE
FOR SAIL THE INTELLIGENCE PARITY
TO READ AND REFLECT UPON!

Nothing is more common than to hear the up
start paTueRus Of Federalism asserting that "all
the ignorance" of the country will be found in
the ranks of the Democracy; while their own
dear selves possess GALL THE INTELLI-
GENCE;" yes, and more, that they monopolize
sail the talents, and all the religion, and all the
decency" in this widespread Union! Even the
''great embodiment" of coonery himself, when
learning his defeat, fell back into his sofa, and
with an air of aristocratic supremacy, felt CRATE
full that GALL The in~teLigencs' of the country
had given him its support! The Federal par
ty have also the unblushing impudence to as
sert that Col. Polk was elected in consequence
of the ignorance of the people, and that his nu-
mcrous supporters are a depraved class who
"cGat read or ~Urrite." II is the easiest thing in
the world to fabricate groundless charges, and it
is the peculiar forte of Roorbackery to indulge
in that species of argument. 1t is humiliating,
we confess, that so many persons are found in
our country who can neither read nor write,
when they have school houses at their very
doors. But to charge that all the ignorant, I'M
educated persons in the land are Democrats, or
even a majority of them, is as ridiculous as it is
false, and could only come from men of contrac-
ted minds, who are inflated, almost to bursting,
with false pride, aristocratic umpudence, brass
ring intelligence, and gingerbread dignity!
Figures can't lie," is an axiom the Federal
party place great confidence in sometimes.
Now, we are prepared to prone, by facts and fig
ares, Of unquestionable authority, that the Fed
eral party do not possess sail the intelligence"
by a long slap, and that there are more persons
among the supporters of HENRY CLAY who
%"can't read or write," than among the support
ers of JAMES K. Polk. The Pennsylvania has
taken some pains to examine this subject, and
upon comparing its statement with the census
of 1910, W. find it literally correct. While ex,
amining and comparing the Pennsylvanian's Ia
Bile with the census, it occurred to us that we
would extend the examination into a number OF
counties Of our own State of Ohio, and selec-
ted five of the principal Democratic, and five Of
the principal Wing counties, as follows, viz:
The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 184?-1851, 1845-01-01

as many electors in each State as members of the
House Of Representatives and senator's; and
while the above seven States have fourteen Uni
ted States senators, the State of New York has
of course only two. These seven States accor-
dinghy give 46 electoral votes, while New York
gives only SO; and get Neo York has, according
10 the census Of 1910, 60,s44 more inhabitants
than all Of them together, including The States Of
Delaware and Maryland.
The sum of the matter then is this; Mr.. Polk
is not elected by a mere constitutional majority,
but hiselection may be regarded as triumphant
one.
He will have a majority of 65 electoral votes
over Henry Clay. He will have 80 more electo-
raj votes than enough TO elect him.
He will have fifteen of the % States, having a
majority of six States over Clay.
He will be elected by the votes of States whose
territory comprises more than four-ilths of the
area of all the States.
Have not then, the people given full and sa
t~islactory answer to the insulting question, "Whc
is James X. Polk?"
The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 184?-1851, 1845-01-01
CLAWS majority,

Thus it will appear that in FIVE Democratic
counties, where Col. Polk received 6,OSG more
votes than Henry Clay, there are but l,203 per-
sons over the age of 20 years, who can neither
read nor write; and in five other counties, where
Henry Clay, 1.-THE "great embodiment" we sup
posi-, of intelligence as we'll as Whiggery,) recei-
we'd 1852 majority over Col. Polk, there are
1874 persons over 20 years ofage who can nei-
ther read nor write =! Can't "all the intelli-

We now come TO the Pennsylvania article
That paper says:-We have already contrasted
a decided Clay State, North Carolina, with New
Hampshire, a decided Democratic State; we now
contrast some counties in Pennsylvania, as well
as the whole vote of the Union, to show that our
opponents have nothing to boast of either in
Pennsylvania or out of it, on a comparison Of
intelligence and votes:

set, form one Senatorial district, and yet what a
contrast do they present!
These counties, we admit, present the differ
snce in our favor in the strongest point of view,
and are not stated as an argument 10 prove that
SO great a disparity Of the "reading and writing
voters or counties exists throughout, but to lei
the selfsuficient, all-the- intelligen e-and-aIl-the-
responsibility party know certain truths that may
prevent them from exposing their own igno,
rance. To close this controversy, which we
have no taste for, but which may stimulate al
parts of the country 10 greater exertions in ex
tending the blessings of education and knowl
edge, we subjoin a table showing the numbe
of white persons over 20 years, who cannot reac
nor write, in the several States, and the compar
alive bearing on the vote of the two parties, ant
there we trust the matter will end-at least w
think our opponents will not attempt to MAKE
any more political capital out of it;
