ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK:
Marion County.

We had the pleasure of hearing the Wing and
Democratic candidates for the Convention make
speeches, at ESQ., Morow's, four miles from this
city, in Wayne township, on Saturday last So far
as we heard an expression Of opinion, ii was decid
edly in favor of the Democratic candidates. AS a
Democrat, we were proud of our selections, and we
think they will all be able to give good account
of themselves on the first Monday in August
Two of the Democratic candidates for Represent
atives not present. and thought, at the time,
il well that they were not, if they were well
occupied in some other part of the county, which we
presume the case, the candidates for Dele
gates occupied the whole day and the entire aten-
ton of the people until late in the evening, when
most of the crowd dispersed
Mr.. Moore, the candidate just selected to fill the
vacancy of Mr.. GLADDEN., the last of the candi-
dates for the Convention to speak. We heard but a
portion of his speech, and that enough we would
suppose, to satisfy almost any one, Wing or Demo
crat that he was troubled with certain disease well
known amongst politicians, to an alarming extent,
and that it is well he physician and carries medi
cines, for any sudden emergency, around with him.
He claimed the authorship of most of the leading
reforms now agitated and that he first promulgated
them four years SINCE when a candidate for the Lee
gislature. If this be true, we cannot see how the
Convention will be able to do without his invaluable
services Mcguire, Wallace, and Hanna, the latter
the author of our present Constitution, should stand
back and let him have all the Democratic votes that
will be given for Wings.
We presume it was this new idea, Of electing the
man who had originated all the Constitutional re-
forms of the age, that induced the Wing Central
Committee to get Mr.. GLADDEN., an intelligent but
unassuming farmer, to decline, that this new stal
might be elected in order that the Wings, whether
they had majority in the Convention not, NIGH
claim all the reforms in the new Constitution. i
was a great move for the Wing Caucus last winter
to claim for their party the authorship of many
items of constitutional reform; but we confess We
did not expect to the individual author of all the
constitutional reforms of the age, in the person of
Wing candidate for Marion county. This Marion
is certainly great county.
But the great argument which should induce every
Whg at least, to vote for him, is found in the fol
lowing extract from the Brookville American which
we suppose was intended to sustain the position tina
the Doctor is the author of all constitutional reform
to-wit:
CDR VIM Moore, son-in-laso of Riley Woodwork I.
this county, (Which is sufficient guaranty that he is
good Whig) is of the candidates in Marion county
Indiana, for in the Constitutional Convention"
Just hear it, Wings of Marion, the son-in-law o.
Riley Woodwork, of Franklin county, is your can
didate, and this is full evidence of his Whiggery
The Dr. says he was the first one to promulgate con
sttutional reform four years ago, and that is suf
cient evidence that the rest of the candidates have
stolen his thunder
