dependent, and warn the people of the
chains forging in the Legislature for their
oppression and slavery. We DARED asslil

whig majority in their schemes to debase
and bow down the white laboring man of
the State, while they were attempting to
gain little additional popularity by pretend
ing to elevate the negro and encourage his
settlement amongst us.
We DARED expose their midnight tin-pan-
ming, which they pretended 10 denounce
when before the people, and when entrusted
with power, follow--not in the nomination
of officers alone, as the democrats did--but
by carrying their whole wicked acts of legis-
lation into their nightly cabal, and they le-
gislated in secret! We DARED expose their
repeal of laws passed for the protection of
the people restricting corporations, &C.
laws some of which have been in force for
twenty and twenty-five years, and thus turn
ing loose upon society every possible crime
and niquity. But we shall not partcularize

together prospectus, prepared al the moment

dregs of coonery, hard cider, and the esta-
blished immoralites of Mr.. Clay and the die
tators of his party. They cannot accom-
plish their purposes, if the democrats of Ohio,
10 whom am indebted for so many favors,
stand by me in this crisis | have stopped
at no expense or labor, to fulfil my part of
the contract as State Printer. accepted
the office in good faith. | relied on the
guarantees of law and the constitution, and
the common honesty that has heretofore
