r-s. DEMOCRATS,
LOOK HERE =!

= FroB the day Of the ''slaughter-house
convention till now, the wings, we mean
,hs rapacious spoils hunting wings, have
done every thing in The. power of n desper-
ate party to do,to get the free people Of the
north to vote for u no principled candidate
and southern Shareholder. At the north
they have represented him in favor OF the
:Wumot Proviso-at the south the bitterest
enemy and staunchest opposer oftbat meas
ure. He is a whig and he is hot a whig
He is anything, nothing, or something, just
as the doctrine is ndapted TO the luttlude
and Longitude of the place where it is pro
mulgated. But the people, notwithstund
ing all this plausible artilice, this leasing,
coaxing and bull Raging, still refuse 10
vote fuf the man who revels in wealth,
who rots.in luxury procured by The unpaid
labor of three hundred human beings
All ha! Here is the rub! The man who
from his infancy has been trader in hu
nun flesh, who buys and sells his fellow
men as cattle, who treats the image of
God as chattel; such Il man, say the Tree
men of the north, can never rule over US.
We are under no obligation 10 vote for
such man. He has not nge civil
qualification for such an office; besides we
have been voting for southern men long
enough. Forty-eight out of The SKY
years we have been government, SOUTH
srn men haze ruled this country, only
IL years has the north been in power,
and zihanAukN Presidents with single terms.
ItisNlgl FnaajorSty Of the people, thai
four ffta1 bl Inc whole population, the
labofmg white lreemea Whp5slive in these
northern states, shouIz 6pre have
President.
Considerationsi like f1e abseaee
Of violent and corrnp I'm VII is plain
to see, willaSettle the Hsxt Presidential
election, a,z nurse overwhelm the whig
party and unauaila6le candidate
What is ID w. dohe! The honest, in;elll-
gent public mind is fixed. Reasoning
coaxng, persuasion, and even threats can
not move them. All expetients OF this
kind have failed. The election is at hand
Every thing is ut stake! What can be
done2 The policy must be changed-the
yenal must be appealed to hrow reason
to the dogs-money is mightier than ar
gumen,. Buy up the loao priced rotss
bring every Taylor voter to the polls.
Leavethe old whig states and the old dem
ocrate states. They will take care of
themselves. "Speud the monsy in the
States where team effect the most" and
where is that? PENNSYLVANIA and
OHIO! "Carry these two states," say
the Taylor men, "by any means and the
election is ours!" Well, what is now d.
ing in our very midst? What do these
WING messengers in every town, ward and
school district in this state, mean? Are
they not hired, and under good pay to do
this dirty work? What means all these
imported whig stum1ers, ex Governor Met
calf Of KY, Ex-Governor Letcher, from
the same state, Ex-Governor Seward, from
tho state Of New York. Francis Granger,
and a host OF others? What means it all,
but to carry out the desperate determina-
tions sof these slaughter house" wings?
FREEMEN OF OHIO! there are not
only foreign emissaries; but there is
- FOREIGN GOLD among you, to snfu
ence your votes! Here is the proof! We
have il from q reliable source. There is
no mistake about it. $4,000 from a
single whig city, has been donated 10 car
ry' this state for Taylor. How much
may be contributed from other cities we
know not; but enough we presume, to Sc
cure every voter in the state within the
reach Of whig money. Here is the proof.
