Congressional Convention have brough out one
William H. Henderson; of johnson county.
Who these men are, who have thus been call
led to dance for brief period, to the piping OF
the whig leaders, we are unable to say We
shall make some inquiries, and by another week
may be able to speak more intelligcntly OF them'
1t is proper that the people should know all that
can be known of those who ask their support
Harlan has played brief part upon the political
stage, and retired to his native obscurty, as we
supposed to be seen no more, but as no other
victim conld be found, willing to stand the NOR
tiicaton ola defeat, he, it seems has again been
laid upon the altar of whiggery.
We offer our sincere coincidence to our friend
Langworthy, that his claims have been so little
appreciated He has put forth powerful efforts
IN the cause, and certainly deserved better treat
