NATIONAL PoLrrtcs NOT AT Issue. -
When Mr.. Lowe, the locofoco candidate
for Governor, addressed the people OF Elk
ton, he said National Politics had nothing
to do with the question. We apprehend
in his effort to make the people believe
this, he mis'ook their intelligence.
The people of Cecil county are perfect
ly aware, that the Governor has the ap-
pointing OF U S. Senators in case of va
cancies. A majority of them are tariff
men, and they are perfectly aware too,
that Mr.. Lowe, if elected Governor,
would appoint TO such vacancy loco
foco free-'radite while Mr.. Clarke would
appoint Senator favorable to srs' aiming
American Industry. Aud with this
knowledge it will be rather hard, we
should 'hink, to get our farmers, and
working men generally, particularly
those interested in manufacturing, 20 vote
for Mr.. Lowe. Tariff men of Cecil, don't
be seduced into the belief that National
Politics has nothing to do with the vJle
for Governor.
CoRREcT.oNs. When a Wing candl-
date IS placed in a false position, or Is lied
about by locotsco opponent, he aud
his wing friends are generally put to
the trouble Of correcting the Ease impress
SONS thus made. We find IN this can
vass, however remarkable exception to
the general rule.
Mr. Enoch Louis Lowe when he spoke
lii tins place, charged that Mr.. Clarke,
was not the candidate OF the mass Of the
whig party, but was the candidate OF the
Baltimore clique. He has since in the
presence of Mr.. Clarke and in publ she'd
letter, denied that he ever so stated. Now,
as he did so state, he would not have made
the denial if it had been true. Therefore
we have Mr.. loves evidence whatever
II is worth-that Mr. Clarke is the cand.-
date OF the MASSES OF the Wing party, and
is not tn" candidate of a clique.
He also slated here that Mr.. Clarke
was not sine re in his course on the Re-
form Question. He has also in like man
n,r denied that he said this. New. it is
proved That he did say so-and il it had
been true he would not have denied it.
Therefore, Wc have MI. loves ties 'ln,cny
be it valuable or vaiuel'ss-- that MIR.
C!alA' Is sound snd sincere reformcr.
~ Hon. M-ssr, Evans and Hamilton
members Of the House Of Represent ativsS
from this ate. beng absent from their
seas on the 5th inst, when vote was
taken on the Texas Boundary Bill, the
Baltimore Sun expressed its regret that
their votes were not recorded in favor OF
that measure. They are vindicated from
censure by the following note from Mr..
Evans, winch we find in The Sun of last
Saturday:
To THE EDlToEs or THE SrS.-Gen'le-
men: In an editorial contained in your
paper Of to-day, observe that YOU saw
''you rr1rct the absence from the House
OF Representatives of myself and Mr.
Iaml'on,' and YOU observe .sheu abb
s"f1ce must certainly be caused by reasons
OF the most wrightv character"
II had been present when he question
was taken upon Mr. Prarce's hi!N I would
have voted Tor Mr. Rovd's amendment
and then for tn bill, whit the amend
mrnl prevailed or not; such, presume,
would also have hecn th.. course o' Nr.
H'mllton; hut, upon the passaqe Of the
b'll, ! paired off with Mr.. Spaulding OF n.
York, who was opposed to- il uron every
point in which supported IT, and Mr.
Hamilton was paired off with Mr.. Wilmot
oil Pennsylvania.
fad we been present to vote for the
bill, both these gentlemen would have
been present to vote AGAINST il. There
was, consequently, nothing lost by our
absence.
The attentive reader OF your paper will
however, not fail to notice that Mr. Ham
ilton's vote, and my vote, would have
changed no result had Mr.. Spauldiag and
Mr.. Wilmot not been in existence
MIR Hamilton and myself are, trust,
too well experienced in the ways
of the House, and have been too
stead!ast friends Of all the measures OF pa
clhcatlon which Congress has had under
consideration to peril any OF them by our
