togo for their rcountry. Below wesadd

soldier lone who fought the enemv in
the war of 1912, and is now ready to
do battle against the enemies of Democ-

been intthe army as q volunteer soldier,
but he too resigned, when his country
no longer,needed his services in the field

too, had seen service; but he too, had
resigned his commission, and retired to

whose ears are more accuston to the

Gen. Ford carrying out the Pfinci-
ples of the Whig Leaders. 'oA

While member OF the Ohio fegis.
Iature, Seabury Ford, the whig candle
date for Governor was famed for moth
ing more than for his bitter and unre.
enting opposition to every effort TO
Tighten the burthens Of :he people by
taxing Bankers as other men are taxed.
On every question Of this kind raised,
Mr.. Ford found voice and tongue, 81
lent as he now is, to aid the Bankers
by vote and speech, in the securing Of
privileges TO the few, which he denied
to the many.
Every attempt to engraf. wise and
salutary restrictive provisions on, Bank
charters, so as to save the people against
loss from Bank failures found the name
Of Seabury Ford in the negative while
every amendment, giving enlarged lib.
erty to the Bankers TO swndle, found
him voting in the affirmative. AZ
In reviewing his votes some weeks
since, and proving the charges herein
made to be true, by the documents, tho
Journal, of this city, charged us with
censuring Mr.. Ford for carrying nut
Meprinciples Of ofhisparty! This charge
was measurably true, for as tar as the
leaders Of whiggery are concerned, he
did carry out their principles, but We
are 10th to believe, that the rank and
file Of whiggery hold 70 the sentiment
that Bankers are entitled to the privi-
Iege Of swindling and thai they. Of all
our citizens, should be measurably 'ex-
empt from taxation, while the farmer
and mechanic are ground 10 the very
dust by taxation to pay the expense Of
the State Government, managed and
controlled by Bankers, their agents and
dependents.

The false Assumptions Of Whiggery,

Hard driven Tor argument with which
to sustain their desperate fortunes, the
wing speakers in this State attempt to
show that Gen. Taylor is not unlike The
father Of his country the great and
the good Washington. What sacrilege!
Gen. Washington, like Gen. Jack
son, Gen. Cass and Gen, Butler, was a
soldier in war, and statesman in npeace.
When the country was involved in a
a war, he drew his sword, and a. the
close OF the war retired to private life.
Gen. Taylor has lived a soldier-he
follows it as man follows a profession
or trade, and his life, from an early
age has been spent in the regular army,
obeying the orders Of his superiors in
rank, and ordering his interiors.
Gen. Washington never disguised his
opinions and never preyaricated. Gen.
Taylor DISCUSSES his opinions, and has
given as his sentiments, TO different per-
sons, doctrines widely differing each
from the other. aa0rVil ntt
Gen. Washington, even before the
evoIution. sustained character as "a
statesman, which lew persons in the,
then, colonies, possessed, and it was
the ability with which he sustained the
cause of the oppressed Colonies in the
House Of Burgess, that marked him as
a proper person to- be selected as a
member Of the Continental Congress,
which subsequently selected him as the
commandier-in-chiet Of the army. q
Gen. Taylor never had any fame as
a state tesman, and he never was entrust-
ed with civil office in his life. Nay,
more, SO utterly unfit did he feel himself
to Judge Of civil matters, that he never
even exercised the freeman's fight OF
voting, and since his nomination to the
Presidency he has frankly confessed
tha! he does not know whether bank
Of the United States and ahigh protec-
tive Tariff be sanctioned by the Con.
stitution or not. fel5 - teab oaalf
The idea Of drawing a parallel be.
tween men so widely different is ridic-
ulous in the extreme. The one was
peculiarly fitted for the task of guiding
the destiny Of the infant Republic amid
the shoals and quicksands which sur.
rounded 1.-THE other has no one quail.
fication TO mark him as q statesman.

Twas trained in the regular army, whore

For the Spirit Of Democracy
Candidates for Congress-.

Mr. EDIToR:-I believe it is now generally
understood that VIM. F. Hunter, Esq. Of this
place, is to be the whig o-party,free-soil-Taylo
Van Buren candidate for Congress, in this Dis
trict, in opposition to the Hon. VIM. Kennon, Jr.
And suppose that the members of the wbig Con-
vention at Morristown thought they were consid-
eraby cute when they refused to make nomina.
tion, but recommended Mr.. Hunter as the free soil
candidate. Perhaps they expected to gain votes
by the maneuvre If they did, they are much
mistaken. No democrat can be expected to vote
for man who has never &C ted with the democr attic
party, and supports none of its measures. What
claims has Mr.. Hunter to our support more than
that Of any other Taylor whig in the District'
None whatever. -..Eg ....I-..t|
Has Mr.. Hunter ever advocated democratic
measures? No.
Has he ever voted for democrat for President
Of the United States' No.
Has he ever voted for democrat for Governor
OF Ohio! No.
Has he ever voted for democrat for Congress
No. :"
Has he ever voted for democrat for any Coun-
ty office, when the wings had candidate! No.
Has he been uniform whig and a supporter oi
whig men and measures! Yes. 4tY
Has he, therefore, any claims upon the Demo.
cratic party' No. a.,, 81, ait
Will he get the support of democrats' No.
The above questions and answers have thought
proper 10 request you, Mr.. Editor. to publish in
your paper. They place Mr.. Hunter in his true
light before the people Of this district.

We find the following sensible artic-
lie in the Clarion Of Freedom, the organ
of the Liberty party Of this county,
...-.a Seabury Ford. ....
When shall the friends Of Liberty
know the position Of Seabury Ford?--
Is he Gagged by his keepers and not per.
mitted TO speak out his principles, for
fear ofthe slave drivers lash? Are Lib
erty men to vote for him in the dark
If MI. Ford is too cowardIy to let his
position be known, he is too sycophan-
tic to merit the support Of high.mind.
ed people, engaged in a magnanimous
reform.
If a pro.slavery man is 10 be voted
Tor by the Liberty party, we prefer Col.
Weller, because he is openly so, and
not sneakingly so.
We hope the Executive, committee
ofthe Liberty party may soon consul,
General Ford and report, and settle the
question. If Ford goes for Taylor and
slavery,we shall oppose him withtongue
and pen and press, and we are in a
hurry TO know. g ~
If Ford goes for Taylor, let the com
mittee putJudge LEE on the track, and
we'I| give him hearty support. Gen.
tIeman, we want action. The party
demands it. = '-'i' ''''''' '''i D9i'''''
