RALLYING IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

The political contest in New Hampshire

wing candidates for Congress-, Hale a.
Barstow, the two gentlemen beheaded by the
radicals for daring to breathe loud words of
liberty--and also the aspirants to ofliceofthe
radical party are upon the stump. The pa
pers too, are warm, the radical papers es-
pocinlly seem to be afflicted with hydrophO-
bin. The radicals are sure of victory, they
say, and brae abundantly. The ant-radicals
brag less. but seem to feel II suitable degree
of confidence ofsuccegs.
The WhigS Of .New Hampshire may look om
for one hing-and that is, they will have to
meet the power ofmoney in the contest
We speak of what we know was freely used
in the late contest in this district. Some Polk
office holders who have not cent that they
will pay towards their honest private debts,
poured out money like water-dnd PIT IL INTO

This is no fiction--we can give names of

The Wings True to Liberty.

For II long period the Representatives in
Congress ofthe Wings Ofthe free States-&
flew Wings of the Southern States too-have
boldly, and on every occasion, faced the
slave advocates-Southern men and northern
dough- faces-and pronounced against SLAYER
Y and its increase. II is no,C a settled measure
Of The Northern " higs 10 oppose the extension q
.Sauery, and to uPrOotit in all places rhere il can
be reached by Legislative or other action. They
are not more united upon the question of
protection than they are upon this measure,
and here they will stand; and here we are
glad to see them stand unitedly. If they have
failed heretofore in being unanimous, it can
not he said of them now that they are not as n
untrue 10 liberty and deadly hostile to OPP
preston.
1.-THE Wing party is not 'the true liberty
party" it is liberty party. as true, as honest,
as good, and us efficient, rs any other party
that can he namcd-and in the free States,
is now stronger than all other parties. /;
has strength and power that no other Iiber-
ty party can hope to attain for halfa century
that does not increase more rapidly than par
ties usually do. 1t is therefore, to this par
ty, alone, that the lovers ot'liberty must look
for progress and efficient action against the
slave power; and whoever does any thing to
weaken this party does injury to the cause of
liberty.
The Wigs ofVermont have spoken loud,
s. Vermont so far as she has been represent
ed in Congress by Wings, has carried out on
all occasions, true liberty principles. All of
tcr, that has been for Slavery, in Congress,
has been locotocoism-the representatives of
the Locofoco party. Vermont is anti-slavery
is for liberty-because she is Whig-and
is not for slavery, because she is not Locofo-
co.
So let it be evermore.-So let the people
be Wing, as they now are, and Vermont will
forever be for liberty and opposed to Slavery
Let every Wing stand his ground for liberty
in the Wing ranks-for the rights of freemen
and bondmen too-and the banner of free
dom will forever wave over the Green Noun
SO doing keep Vermont as she is and should
be, we have not doubt.
Every northern state that is Wing, carries
out in Congress liberty principles and meas
ares and goes as far as the Constitution will
let any body go, & as far as any party can go
Each northern State that is Wing is as much
liberty State as it can be, or could be made
to be. And the northern Wings will support
for President, at the next trial. northern
man with northern rinciples;-hence Wings
should labor unitedly, and remain united, as &
band of brothers, to carry out Wing measures
and liberty principles-and secure thei,
triumph in 1948 by the election of a northern
Wing to the Presidency.
And if there be men who wish to aid the
cause offreedom and overturn oppression
who have heretofore stood alooflet them Join
hand in hand with the Wings. They are
strong in the free States, strong in numbers
and power, and willing to do all that any par,
