The Independent County Ticket.

The County Ticket, which we this
week place at the head Of our inside col.
umns, in connection with the Ticket for
State Officers has received the sanction of
the people in all parts of the county,
Brought out by the advice and desire of
men in all parts of the county without the
dictaion of a Convention. il gives univer-
sal satisfaction. All the men on it are
well known-men in whom the people
can place confdence-men, who, if elect
ed. will do the County and State some
service. Efforts will be made to Gepreci-
ale them in the eyes Of the people-bnt
we very much mistake the intelligence of
the people of Old Des Moines, if they
will permit such men as the editor Of the
Gazette, who is the Agent and Organ in
Iowa of swinding concern in New
York, to interfere. much less influence
them to vote against the candidates on the
Independent Ticket. We call upon all TO
give lift in elecling such we'll known
men as Browning, Fullenwider, Blair,
Hebard. Bowie, Holland and Cock.

Folks asking for ten millions of money
and fifty thousand volunteers which were
cheerfully granted him by Wing members

Polk begging for two millions of dollars
to buy peace with Mexico. Who ever

NE don't have to go back fifty years as
he does to find charges against our oppo-
nen,s. All the monslrous acts of J. X
Polk, which we have mentioned above
were crowded into one session Of Con-
gress.
The fact is all the acts of the loco fuco
party show such a trucking to the South
at the expense of the West and the North,
that it requires jus, such scayengers as
the writer in the Gazette to rake up all
the political offal that has been accumu-
lalng for half century, to turn from it
the odium which would na,u rally attach
TO il. The wing party do no, advocate or
tolerate such principles as he says they
do. Their acts if carried out would ben
fit the people and enrich the nation
while the acts of his party do nothing but
injure the people and impoverlsh the ma
ton. This is susceptible of proof.

the farmer of Iowa can send his produce

TO be improved in spite of Presidential
Vetees; and the sooner we send indepen-
dent men to Congress to effect that object,
the sooner it will be done. Messrs He'd

confirm the news of Santa Annals movements.
Upon the appearance of the steamer Arab off Vera

when an attempt was made to intercept the Arab
put the morning was calm and she slipped into port
without hindrance.
Opinions differ as to the intentions of the Commo-
dore towards Santa Anna. Some believing he had
no desire to intercept him.
Santa Anna brought latter of introduction from
the U. s. Consul at Havana to Mr.. Campbell, and a
box OF fine cigars for the commodore.

scandaous shame the arrival of the advance of Gen.
Taylol's army.
The revolution is going at Vera Cruz and Mex
