THE FRAUD ONCE MORE.

is playing directly into the hands OF the Fiimo-
renes. To show how some OF the wing papers
il Virginia regard This fraud, we quote from Inc
Marlinsburg Gazeue, which says mo sucn icKe's
are u circulation here and it is liost on the Whig
pa,tv TO say So" But We have now the glaring
fact that this fraudulent ticket IS printed at Inc
Office Of the Lynchburg Vitsnian (Wh'g,)

This Lyuchburg ViIginan admitted few days

be intended TO cheat The anti-Fillmore Wings ID

But as our correspondent says, this gross
fraud which disgraces the soil OF Virginia, by
whomever gotten up and pu, in motion, will re-
coil upon the inventors and circulaloIs. The
Democrats will shrink with horror from 50 bald,
so wretched trick, and unless we are mistaken
many honest Wings will crush the doube-deai
ing "parly scheme" beneath their virtuous indis-
nation. II such fraud can succeed in old Vir-
ginia, then will she have los, her character OF
stern and patriotic devotion TO truth and TO virtue
She will not, We feel confident, couuleuance SO
sneaking cheat aud humbug-but will mark
with her reprobation the desperate actors in the
miserable game. The Democracy Of "Litllc
Tennessee" will. VIC are sure, rise superior 10
the treachery Of pretended friends and sly enc
mics, and will give forth a voice, which will
drive the coons and their possum allies into the
holes and csverns of her mountains. Their
brother Democrats in the other portions Of the
Stale will come 10 their rescue and raise in ri
umph the flag u Cass aua Butler, the Constu-
tion nd The Union.
As for the bribery and corruption, referred 10 b.
our correspondent, which the Wings are bringing
TO bear upon Pennsylvania, The accounts are con-
6rmed by the Northern papers. The following
letlers are published in The Pennsylvania:

Blu, we believe the noble old Keystone State

alism. From all the information before US. we
canno, doubt that Pennsylvania will vo e for

some Of the most distinguished and best inform |

rable address, from a committee al Pil,sburg, Tor i

fact, are stated, which make Us confidently expect
a triumph in Pennsylvania. They assert posi-
lively, that Johnston received nearly the entire

ouakers In Pennsylvania, who 10 man voted
or Johnston, aud will not vote for Taylor. This
additional deduction from the Wing vote will Sc
,ure the Stale to Cas- and Butler by 10000. The
Wings are making Tremendous e1ertions in vari.
