nP WIGS OF HOWARDl-r1

We last week had the pleasure of an
nouncing Col Jos. DAVIS, of this place, a
candidate for the lower branch of the next
General Assembly. lie has represented
you faithfully and fearlessly, and the coun-
ty ably. To him the citizens of the county
may safely confde their interests in the
Legislature, with the assurance that they
will not be neglected. 1t devolves upon
you to see that he is elected The wings
have a majority in the county, and they
should be careful that they are not defeated.
We shall not be successful, if we quietly
sit with our arms folded. There is work
to do, and it must be done. The enemy is
not dead but sleepeth: conscious that they
arc in the minority, they are holding back
to take advantage of circumstances
Plots and counter-plots are being devised
to sustain their sinking cause. Without
they can so manage as to get some whig
votes, they have no chance Of success
and TO this end their efforts are now being
directed. 1t is therefore of the utmost
Importance that the wings be active and
vigient, SO as to bring out our full force a,
the election. Every vote should be polled
not only to insure success now, but to
place us on such ground as will insure sue
cess hereafter. Let no one think his vote
is of no Importance. A single vote often
decides important elections. One voter
declining to vote at all, may elect a man
with principles obnoxious to him, and al
war with the true interests of the country.
This is serious matter, and should be
weighed well by those who do not look
upon the exercising of the right of suf-
frage a matter of importance. 1t is the
bounden duty Of every citizen to vote, and
to vote for the man who will most truly
reflect their wishes and sentiments.
Watch the enemy!

DESTINATION OF THE CAvALRY--CALIFoR.
MA TO DE TAKEN.--We find the following
in the last Nashville Union, Mr.. Folks or.
gan in Tennessee:
We understand from reliable source, that it is
The Intention Of the Government TO send force
to California sufficient to take possession of that
country and hold on TO it. Itis supposed that
the mounted men from Arkansas and Missouri,
and probably from Tennessee, will be directed to
California. We sincerely hope that this nlor.
nation may be true, and from the source through
which il is derived, we are satisfied that il is relia
Bile. We regard California now as ours, and
with that result all will be satisfied.
MEXICo.-If the Rio Grande be the true
line of Texas, then Taos, Santa Fe and
many old Mexican towns are in Texas, and
form part Of the u. States, for they are
on this side Of the Rio Grandc,

The editor of the democrat" as in duty
bound, is defending the illustrious head of
the party, Gov. Edwards. He says that lie
has not been informed whether the Cover
nor is on bond peddlng expedition or not,
and, therefore, nothing ought to be said
about it Again, he says the editor of the
Lexington Telegraph has "assumcd" that
AdIt Gen. Parsons has issued orders as
acting governor, and that the Times says
Governor Edwards was in New Orleans
and issued his first orders from there, and
concludes by saying, "such Surmises about
the Governor are ridiculous, and unworthy
of notice. If our ncighbor would read
the papers, and see what is going on, he
would find that his contemporaries were sus-
tanned by something more than surmises.

BY JOHN BROUGHAM.

a remarkable instance of the fondness
of the Irish for their offspring, came under
ny observation during recent Journey TO
the South, by what was facetlousIy told
was the quickest and peasantest route
the lakes-but which | found to be so
much the contrary, as amounted to quite
the reverse; for we had not been long on
our way, until the weather began to be
what the sailors emphatlcally call "dlrty,"
increasing at last to such tempest as l
had no idea could be gotten up by any
thing short of an ocean; but it is aston
ishing how ambitious those same lakes are
they had us completely at their mercy ;
and it was with great difficulty, and no lit
tie danger, that we made the shelter of an
aboriginal lump of barrenness called Ma
nitou Island, where we were obliged to
remain five days.
Now, as the purveyors of those boat:
always calculate upon making the passage
in a given time, and never provide more
than an additional meal or two for adverse
circumstances, and, inasmuch as we hac
a fen deck passengers-some seven hun
dred-it is not at all TO be wondered al
that provisions were alarmingly scarce
The deck passengers had nothing to eat
and we had less and, out OF our share
we had to support them; so, as you ma.
imagine, we were in predicament.
During the continuance OF our bret ia
