The Canvass against Gen Pierce.
The following letter, which comes TO from most
reliable in Maine, together with the accompany
ing extracts from the Maine journals, shows the charac
ter which the whg has taken in that vicinity.
There is longer chance to disguise the fact that the
aboonis, leaders making most corrupt and des-
perae effort to concentrate their forces upon Gen. Scott
This fact shows clearly the significance of the charge
which made by the most prominent whg journals,
that Gen. Sco,ts nomination. "wh the resolutions
nexed" was the result Of "corupt barganw The whg
platform in fact the initial aui OF the This
indicated when the platform permitted to crcu-
late through the country in version which gave TO ita
sense entirely different from that which il bears in its Of
fetal FORM And the fraud becomes gross and pal

Hale already consumnated TO the full OF the
power of their chief leaders.

Eco The Portland Inquirer having recently alluded to
the fact that N. wilson, esq., of Ofono, prominent free
soler, had declared his intention OF voting for General
Scott. that gentleman addresses the following explanatory
letter to the editor;
As my renouncng free-so, declare It wholly false
do denounce Van BuTen, and provoked with myself
that should vote for such political knavo.
But sir, nsrr far a moment have cut loose from

Heaven, may live become tho Universal sentiment
IN this country.
Now, to who shall be President made up my mind
that either Scout Pierce be elected-and no otbsr
candidate receive electoral vote. Hale noble
fellow, and has nobly sustained himself; but can never
be elected Pesiden and at heart, am cedbly informed

Well, am out boldly, automatically for Scott for the

friend OF III. Union to be lied down, how can they ex-

future
Large packages OF most vile paper edited by low
fellow by the name OF Palmer, in New Hampshire
are being secretly sent around throughout this
State, containing the foues, and scandalous charges
against the private character OF General Pierce They reit
the base fasehoods that have been hundred times
refued and shameuy assert that they have never been
denied.
This Is to be the game probably all over the Union
II Is The duty oil every patriot TO denounce this vile plot
and caution the people against it,

reckless efforts ,ha, resoned to- Il is truly cam

scANDALous rLor.-For effect abroad vile sheet in
New Hampshire, under the Objection Of low fellow by
the name Of Dudley Palmer is nventing and circulating
the most oaihsome cauunies upon the personal character
Of General Pierce.
ltmay be recoected that when General Pierce heard
The news OF his nomination Tor The presidency he In
Boston, and that the hotel where he stopped imme
diaey hronged with crowds eager pay their
respects to the distinguished Of high an honor

conduct in order to avoid bsing the az disturbing
by his and the attendant crowd tho evoons OF
the Sabbath IN the CITY, he privately left II Saturday
evening, and went quietly to the house Of friend in
Chacsown, where he spent the Sabbath with the family
in quiet attending with them the religious services Of the
day, morning and evening.
Now, that you may Judge OF the depths OF nfamy 10
which this Dndey Palmer paper descends unbu shiugy
calnmnIses General Pierce drunkard, and nsinuates
that he left Boston enjoy drunken revery the very
time he sought quiet retreat in private family, that he
might spend tho Sabbath In religious deyoons, free from

But this is not all. The former abolition paper in this
