TO THE POLLS

Once more, Wings, to the polls, for liberty.
peace and good government. Remember that
that the staying away from the polls of Wing,
contributes just as much to locofoco victory, as
does the bringing there of an additional locofoco !
Muster all your forces, then, and help our sister
States to swell that tide OF popular indignation,
which, if we faithful is assuredly destined to
sweep away this miserable, besotted slave ridden
administration. Be firm and true, and yours will
be the VICTORY.

MICHIGAN is COMING I

The Tribune has despatch from Buffalo which
says:
Partial returns from the Peninsula Stale show
large Wing gains. Our returns are somewhat
conflicting One account says Wayne County
has elected Wing Clerk and two Members of
the House of Representatives. Oakland County
has chosen the full Wing ticket-a gain. Cal
houn one Wing member-a gain. Macomb coun-
ty is Wing, gain. McCleland, Loco, is re-elect-
ed to Congress from the lst District. Wisner and
Gordon, Wings, are probably elected. The 9TH
side claims that all three of the Loco Foco
members are chosen. At all events there is
decided Wing gain in the Legislature and on tt e
vote for Congressional Delegation is doubtful.

THE MEXICAN WAR.

There is a great deal loo much indifference through

APPLES, There is heavy crop of Baldwin
Apples, and some other kinds this year. but The
old standard Russell has made an uncommon tall.
ure, and the crop is hardly worth harvesting :
Noah Marston, Esq, OF Greenland, N. n. has
taken seventy barrels Of picked Baldwin apples
from six trees. This does not include consider
able quantity Of inferior fruit, which was sold
without ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Herald.
So things differ in different localities. In this
vicinity, so far as we have observed, we should
say that the Baldwin apple was hardly as good as
usual this year, while the Roxbury Russell has
been uncommonly large, fair, and fne--the best
we have known 1t for many years.-Spy.

the polls without effort or urging, to express their
indignation at the conduct of the party in power,

TO the rejoicing of all true Wings, elected to Con-

the 4th District by most unexampled and tri-
