present dominant party of the country has far grown
into popular use to have securely fixed and firmly

republicanism and monarchy. On s broad platform Of

The First Vote.

What weak and miserable defence is making among

the first time cast his vote at recent election in Virginia
trumpeted forth ample apology for Gen Taylors

eeminate argument by adverting to the welknown fact
that Mr. Gusts formerly resided in this District, where
general suffrage exists but who, by recent OF
Congress, was for the first time in his life made voter

reannexed to the State of Virginia.
