rnr sHNAroRiAL ELECTION --No. Y


MR. EDITOR, come now TO speak OF
A. G. M'NuTT, the peoples candidate !
call him the peoples candidate, because |
am well satisfied, and | have heard the
same from his opponents, that ifthe choice
Of Senator was eh 10 the people, TO be de-
cded by them at the ballot boxes, that ne
would be elected by an overwhelming ma
iority. This is a sufficient reason for call
ing him the peoples candidate u he Is
not chosen, his defeat will be brought about
by the same means which caused the de-
feat of Gen. Jackson for the Presidency IN
1924. The union OF some so-called ke-
publicans, with the old Federal party, de-
feated Jackson then, and elected Adams.
Jackson was the strongest, and ought to
have been elected. He was the choice OF
the people over any one Of the other can
didates, yet he was defeated, and the peo-
pie cheated out OF their choice by bargain
and intrigue, as will be the case il M'Nuti
is not elected. CLAY and his friends then
cried out that the country would beruined
if Jackson was elected--inst as certain men
calling themselves Democrats talk now
about the election Of M'Nuu running the
State. If M'Nutt is not elected, many o.
the members of the Legislature will de-
serve the same talk that Benton gave tc
Scott. the member Of Congress from Mis-
souri,. when il was ascertained that he
would vote for Adams, notwithstan ding
the people of that State were opposed tc
him. And they will receive the same kind
Of treatment from their constituents that
Scott did-they will be consigned TO inia
my and 6blvion--which was the case witt
him. Thcpeople are powerful-ihey have
an innate love of justice and truth, an'
wo to the politician who sets himself up t.
thwart their decisions. Benton used thu
following strong language to Scott, speak
ing Of his giving the vote Of Missouri t
Adams: 1.-THE vote which you intend I
give thus, is not your own. II belongs !
the people of the State of Missouri. The
are against Mr.. Adams. In their name
do soIcmnly protest against your intention
and deny your moral power thus to besto'
year vote"
The wings are already chucking slyi
5 among themselves, thinking they can dc
S feat M'Nutt, and elect some man WHO'S NJ
d the choice of the democratic party. III
! only way for the democratic party certain
TO prevent this, is TO go into Convention
and all agree to support the man who
f., the nominee of the Convention. Witho'
i, this is done, the wings will control the ee
il ton. The result Of the late SENATOR
E election in Tennessee, should be war
l. ing to the Legislature of this State.

the day of our last publication, and before
this time has been perused by most of our
readers. From its great length, we are
compelled 10 omit some unimportant para
graphs. We have divided it under differ
ent heads, for convenient reference.
We may express our opinion of this i'm
portant document in one line! 1t is tho
roughly American thoroughly Democratic.
The prudent and patriotic course of the
President in the Oregon negotiation, has
placed even the most INSCRIPTIONS and
faclous of his opponents, at loss for a
pretext of assalIment. The President,
in Difference TO the action Of his predeces-
sors, offered the 49th parallel as compro-
mise boundary-frmly convinced at the
same time that our title TO the whole coun'
try as FAR north as the Russian line is "clear
and unreasonable" This concession for
the sake of peace having been haughtll J
rejected, our government now asserts ou'
full title which will be maintained and
vindicated, no matter at what hazard.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF TIE Urea
suRY.-This mastery document is spoken
of in terms of the highest eulogy and com
mendaton by the democratic press. We
have not had time to give it at attentive pc
rusal. In reference to the Tariff, the great
principle advanced and triumphantly main
tanned, is
THAT no duties shall be levied above
the lowest rate which will yield the larg-
est revenue"
The Secretary also proposes
"That discrimination be made below
these rates.
"That no more money be collected than
is necessary for the wants of an econo-
mcal administration.
"That the highest duties be imposed on
Injuries.
"That mini mum and specific duties be
abolished, and duties be assessed on actual
market value.
"The duties to be levied so as to ope-
, rate equally as far as possible Throughout
the Union, discriminating not for nor a
: gainst any class or section"
The Secretary recommends the eslab'
lishment of Warehousing system, and
urges the re-enactment of the Independent
Treasury law.
We regret that our space forbids a NOR
s lengthy notice of this valuable report W.
shall endeavor to publish portion, or th'
i whole of it hereafter.
