The Canvass.

During the week we have had two discus.
sions of the Presidential question, by regu-
larly appointed champions Of the respective
parties; the first having come off on last
Monday between Judge Wilkinson and his
competitor, J. L. Alcorn, Esq; the second
occurred yesterday between Colonel w. II.
johnson and j. s. Yerger, Esq
The claims of the democratic candidate
were fully aud ably sustained by our cleo
tors, especially by the speech of Mr.. John
son on yesterday, whose effort evinced more
of political tactics than the more profound
and philosophical speech of Judge Wilkin-
son, characterised, as it was, by ripe scholar
ship and deep reflection.
In spite of the "noise and confusion"
which the wing party get up on such Occa-
siOns, by rallying during wing fire, and then
lodging democratic fire, the wing speakers
plainly cvince the uphill business of their
vocation. Alcorn having neither arguments
in favor of bad cause, nor the ingenuity OF
humor for producing diOersion, is doomed
to awful drudgery; Yerger, on the other
hand, with his consummate waggery, seems,
at least, determined to console disappointed
and disconlate whiggcry, by making it laugh
in which he meets with great success. He
is wcll-ftted to manage his hopeless case.
since having no material for argument, he
has abundant genius for dramatising, which
always engages attention, though it fails tc
control votes
johnson effectually demolished every po
sition, and exposed all the trivial specialties
which made up his adversaries sophistry.-
He denounced, in just terms, the Odious
wing measures of 1841, including the Bank
rupt Bill, which Yerger eulOgised, and point
ed triumphantly to the benefcient effects O
the democratic policy as it now exists, anc
which the wing party desire to overthrow
He contrasted the incorruptible character
and career of Pierce, with the anti-slavery
heresies and freesoil influences of Scott
olinching, as he did, every position will
abundant and recorded proof.
We cannot particularise, but must ex
press our establishment that Yerger should
betray ignorance of the fact, that New Hamp
shire, both in legislature and convention, re
peatedly affirmed and re-afirmed her sted
fast adherence to the compromise measures
having only last week published several reso
lutions of that State on the subject. HaC
johnson had an opportunity Of replying, h
would have given the necessary information
as it was evident he noticed the error.
