M Dear .Sir:-The new Constitution
MUST BE DEFEATED AT ALL HA-
YARDS, COST WHAT IT MAY. The
safety ofthe banks and the good of the State
demand, and no effort mo,st be spared, to ac-
complish this desirable purpose. See the
the directors and stockholders of your bank
at once PRIH4TELY, and put THEN on
tie right tracki
The Board of Control will meet soon, when
means (money) WILL BE PROVIDED and
the most feasible plan adopted to ensure the
defeat of this late locofoco humbug. A
well concerted plan of operations is already
fixed upon at Columbus. This IS to be kept
a E4s-p profound secret! A part of the rlan
lis to keep shady for the present, hold no
discussion with those who advocate the adOp-
ton of the Constitution, and occasion no eX-
Icitement, as this would be calculated to cause
"a greater turn out of the people at the cleo
Ition; and JUST ON THE EVE OF THE
ELECTION the enormities of this new con-
Isttution will be exposed, and the people
made to see humbug or devil under al
most every clause and section of it. In the
meantime secretly organize and drill the @higS
as well as can be in opposition to it. Make
the Wings believe that the apportionment
system is unfair, and that even Medary ad-
, mits this Make them believe that it will
ruin the banks, break up all corporations,
and arrest the progress and improvement o.
: our great and fiourishing state!
=. We WW hare to aSe little kanabug IN or
e der to defeat the Constitution! Make the
: people believe that it is lawyers constitu
d ton, made by lawyers, and for the sole ben
eft of lawyers. This is the best humbus
T which can be invented to gull the farmers
f and the ignorant people! But it should no
be circulated until Just before the election
= otherwise it might be inquired into. Th'
u truth is at least two-thirds Of the lawyers 0
b the State, being interested in banks ant
G corporations, will vote against the new Con
J.; stitution, and their influence will not b
Il small. But this the farmers and mechanic
h MUST NOTKNOW
= In Franklin County there will be heay
2 vote against the Constitution. Biennia
G sessions of the Legislature, and putting tn
t public printing out to the lowest bidders
II will have an influence which will be felt il
l. the region of Columbus. The State jour
,' nal will manfully do its duty in organzin
h the Wing party over the State. The adop
:e ton of the new Constitution would reduc
:; the journal Office one-third in value. Le
}, me hear from you soon.
If Eoeyy possible effort mast be made to prc
a tect tie Bank from the ruinous taration whic
VI the 4New Constitution amU impose upon as!-
e Far better let tile FARMER and tie Id
ID B ORLVG MAN, pay the aghole ofthe Sta
e, debt, than to do without banks. If bank
!; have the same tax which is imposed upo
- individuals, they will quit business. 1t
,e this be understood.
2; The VERY WORST feature of this ne
lg Constitution, is its making almost every off
., ELECTIVE BY THE PEOPLE II
2 people IRE NOT FIT to elect their Juog
ID md their State obfcersi Egery pOor deo
n. ,ciH be 6ragging a6om Ills vote and has pom
n, at tie 6allot 6or! And oar Judges and hig
.State .tundi0narios aCAI be compelled to d
Scend to notice e0ery ornary FELLO OI
|. Mough he be not corh one dollar, on accou
Of his vote. THIS WILL NEVER d 0!
Yours truly,
