Many time have ! been accosted with "I've
got some news concerning Mr. b. that Mr. A. told
me, that Mr. c. said so and So" Now what does
this amount to but downright lying, or at least
defamation? What can influence person to con-
duct IN such manner, when it is greatly against
their own interest, and the welfare of the commu-
nifty; it not only makes their own condition mise
rable, but all around them; they will be sneered
at and scorned by society. Whit can be more RI
dicuous than reporting evil Of neighbor! o
shame upon the person of that description for per-
haps the evil reporter has been in the evil him
self Such is the production either OF malice,
cowardicc, or vanity, and generally misses of its
aim in every one of these vi1ws, for lies are al
ways detected, sooner or later. If person has
the misfortune TO be in the wrong there is some
thing noble in frankly owning it, for nothing would
be his disadvantage than to cquivocate, for what
ever is said afterwards to the disadvantage of any
one, however true, passes for calumny. lie, US
remember then, that nothing but strict honesty,
will carry us through this world with our consc-
ence, and our honor unwounGed. EGO.

BEWARE OF IMP0STERS.

The wings have ever been notorious for
stealing political catch words, especially
if success is in any way associated with
them, and now they have jumped on to the
hobby of the new party, and their notices
for "free soil," wing meetings are posted
at every turn and corner.
They sounded their free soil, Taylor
"toSkin," at Pomfret, on Thursday last,
and have advertised meetings in var,
Gus parts of the county, under the head Of
Gree soil" But the mark of the beast is
upon them and they will hardly succeed in
capturing game with so bare faced a
fraud.
The old coon's fur sticks tight to his
back, and he may turn and twist himself
into as many shapes as he plcases, he can't
gaIvanize it into life again.

The Last Card Of LOcOfocOism.

Wings of the Second Congressional
District! do you understand the course Of
this prc-baId coalition, under the false
guise of Gree Soil and management
of Henry, Price, s. Co? DO you under
stand that it is but another attempt to ca.
jole you into the support of man for
Congress. who has always been, and still
is, nothing more nor less than Locolocol
Such is the case, and that man is Sumner
A. Weber of Rochester. The Loco.
loco party proper, put in nomination
Judge Redfeld. believing that he would
decline he has declined, and the oppo,
site branch under the direction of the new
firm have managed to run Ryand Fetch
or, the third party candidate off the course
and secure the nomination in his stead OF
Mr. Weber, who is now to receive the
support Of the entire party, together with
the third party aud such Of the wings as
they can draw off under the euphonious
motto Of free soil" 1t now remains to be
seen if the Wings will be cheated in this
manner. We trust they will not. Re,
member, then, we say, that this Sumner
A. Weber is the nominee Of Locofoco
party, put forward by them as a l.ocofoco,
aud will receive their supper, upon that
ground, and no wing or regular free soil
man can conSciMiio"sy support him,-lt
Nercwy.
1t is only necessary to add that the
above, so far as it relates to the democratic
party, is base and unqualified talschood,
and that the VI. Mercury is the only paper
in existence susceptible of coming so con-
templibIe lie, and we call upon that pa
per to prove its statements or forever after
abandon all claim to responsibility or de-
ceucy.

Mn EpIroR,- II would like to say few word,
through YOU columns, to your numerous and in.
teligcnt readers, hoping that they are not of which
am to speak.
Whenever any disease mrects person or thing,
it is known to increase, and if not remedied, will
end in the destruction of the patient; although
some may become supernatural and still continue
on in the good way The sect speak of, is a
noted &c, of rcrormcrs, who would like to have the
world bow to their mandate; which have, perhaps,
infected the world ever since the beginning; yet
the present time seems more deeply bound up
with them, or at least. more apparent than ever
before 1t seems to be their business 10 mind
what Others are about than that Of themselves; for
whenever you meet them they have some import
ant news TO tell, concerning some one, or some
person, which, by the by, is generally of slam
derous natuIc% for truth and Justice rarely abide
