rWe have already stated that on

%We have alrendy stated that our
0Tponenis have very generally paid up
their Registry Taxes in this town; and
we learn that they have pursued the
same course in all parts of the State
thus marifesiing deter nlnatlon 10 be
prepared for the State and Congress
sional Elcc ions in April. We presume
tha, they will immediately commence
thorough organization all over The
State, preparatory 10 the meeting oi
their Conventions in January, for the
purpose OF nominating their RESI- ectlvS
candidates. Although the Wings WHEN
ever they are disposed 10 bring out
their strength, always have very large
majority over the Locoocos even when
the latter do their best, still IL will not
do for us TO console ourselves with TN"
pleasant reflection. We have work TO
do, and all true Wings must 30 Al II III
earrest. We must work lngrii,er lay'
ing aside all factionaI pr, judic,s, and
little differences Of oIiniou on minor mat
ters, and put our shoulders to tie wheel
with a zeal and persrv rance which
shall secure The election ot our officers
bya noble majority. We can easiiy do
this, if we are dlsrosed; and we trust
that no good Wing will be unmndiuI or
nsgligen, oi his important duty, III tll'
respect.
When our opponents do work, whcth-
er in Rhode Island or in Massachusetts,,
or in any other State. il is with an lnde-
f,igable earnestness which II would he
well for us to initiate. They quarrel
Ike cats and dogs 10 use common
expression, without intending to carry
out the comparison, III time oi peace ANA
ouietude, but when an Election takes
place, every man walks up to the ballot
box with the precision of well drlIlr't
sodiery. n" man remains at honc he
cause he happens personally to dislike II
eandidute :and no one VOTES for an op-
poneut, either to CRAFTY hir spleen. or
manifest his personal preitrrn'r-hut
every man goes the entire ticket mvari'-
bly, laying eide Lr 4 e Tim" lei z al
objections and all personal preference .
This ia as il should be-. What is the use
ofa party orgamZaiion-What l. the IL
tility of Conventions WHY Is 1t worth
the pains of nominating candidates, 4
any portion Of the rarty intend to bot
from tie ranks, 10y rejecting HE doing~
OF the Convention, and thus virtually
and materially aiding our opponents
We 90 for party organization and tor
Caucus nominations, he il what IT may
and be they VIII, they may. THIS Is tlis
only true mode Of rsuccese and with this
the Wing purity is always sure OF trI-
umph h,-wlthoui il, defeat is almost lnev
table. Again, therefore. we say to the
Wings. thoroughly organize all over the
State pu, the best men in nomination
for Office, and then stand fairly by them
and secure their election. 1t is unfair L
the candidates TO nominate them, anC
then quietly or inactivcy permit hem II
be defeated. When we proiirr men ;
nomination, we owe them our hcari!
efforts to place them III the posirion 10
which we have made them candidates
Let us act upon u is prlnciI IL, and W
shall secure the State and Congrcssion
al Elections III April.
