week, which will be circulated 70 every
Anti-Rent locality forthwith. Is there one
word in the above reply which any true
Republican would wish to see omitted >
any reason Why Wing should refuse to
vote for Washington Hunt
Now mark the difference While the
Journal of Commerce on one side IS assail-
Ing Mr.. Hunt as leagued with law-break-
ers and spoilers under the banner of Anti
Rent, and is urging on Wing capitalists and
merchants the support of a Union Ticket
from which Mr. Hunts name is excluded
and that OF Horatio Seymour put in Its
place, the -4toney- General Of the .State is
trqrersing the Anti-Rent region and doing
his best 10 secure The rotc Of A1ti-Renters
far Seymour by professions Of sympatEy and
taror on The part Of Mr. Seymour. We
have heard that he exhibits con6dentially
letter from Mr.. Seymour TO this effect but
of this we are not certain. But we have
good authority for the assertion that Mr..
Chatfeld is Tor lately has been) traversing
the Anti-Rent counties and coaxing Anti
Renters to vote for Seymour upon the
strength of assurances that he 81 would
do all for them that they could reasonably
ask So that with the Journal of Com
merce TO frighten The landlords and capital
ISIS and the Attorney-General to rope in the
tenants and anti-feudalistS, it's hoped that
Mr. Hunt may be beaten. But we are con-
fident he cannot be.
Washington Hunt has not changed one
hair in principle since l849, when the
Wings thought him worthy to be Comp
troller. and SO did most Of those termed
Anti Renters. Together they voted for
and elected him; who among them all has
since had reason to regret doing so We
trust not enc. Nor will any if he is elect
ed Governor
On the exciting question: as it is
termed, Mr. Hunt is thoroughly candid,
while his opponents are disingenuous and
two-faced. Nh Hunts views respecting
Slavery are written on the recent pages of
our Country's annals his votes, his
speeches. his propositions are there record
ed and he mas recently reathmed them
as applicable to the present state Of affairs
in his letter to Francis Granger. The pub
lie know what he thinks of the Fugitive
Slave Law. of the Boundary and Territo-
rial adjustment, &c, &c. All on his side
is open, fair and above board. But on the
other side, while The Herald. Journal Of
Commerce & Co. are doing their utmost to
rally Cotton vote against him from the
mercantile Wings of this City and vicinity,
the Loco-Foco organs in Onondaga, St.
Lawrence, The 4daS at Albany, &c. are
calling upon liberty loving voters TO oppose
and defeat him because President Fillmore
signed the Fugitive Slave Law and he is g
friend and supporter of the President!
And this cros~-tiring Is kept up with per-
tinaeity which indicates that the players
expect to make a good thing of 1t, The
party which sent to Congress the only Ser
ator and Representative from our State
who sustained The Fugitive Slave Law, and
which furnished twenty-Seveno of the thirty
Representatives Of Free States who voted
for that law. is now calling upon the voters
TO support the crony Of Dickinson and
Walden, who has never whispered dis
sent from their course, in order to show
their hostility to the Fugitive Slave Law
to vote for Seymour in preference to
WASHINGTON Hunt, who did not wait 10
be asked before proeIaiming that he con-
sidered tina. law too harsh and too careless
Of the rights and liberties of Freemen, and
that in his Judgment it should be repealed
or essentially modified Could preposter-
