QUESTIONS NOT ANSWERED.

On. the 26th of last month. we had the honor to
PROFOUND the following questions to the Boston ATLAS,
leading Scott paper-being led thereto by certain
comments made by the Editor the course of The
Commercial We invite the attention of the reader
to them.
"W hat are his (the Edtor's) views relative to
Southern Rights. under the Observation-Disclosures
they be perpetual or temporary?
Will the Editor stand up to the Baltimore Plat
form!
Will the supporters of Scott in Massachusetts do
the samel
Will the Atlas sustain the Fugitive Slave Law2
Was not the Alias one Of The papers that abused
Mr. Webster for indicating Southern Rights and
sustaining the Constitution %
If the Editor has taken any notice of the above it
has escaped our observation. What do Southern
men think of this! Are they prepared 60 hand in
glove with the northern supporters of Gen. Scott.
who will not dore not these questions in the
only way that ought to satisfy a southern man?

WING ARGUMENTS.

wing. writing about Scott meeting in Penn
syvania describes the following of the
tions of the occasion:
An immense soup bowl on wheels, containing
band. glee club, with flags, banners, and three or
four live coons, left here, drawn by six gray horses,
for Washington, Pennsylvania, followed by wagon
sixty feet long, containing some one hundred dele
gaes drawn by thiry-one elegant horses, each bear
ing flag with the name of one of the States"
There is sad degeneracy exhibited in this sort of
disgusting WING frivolity. The Wing creed is now
typifed by soup bowl, and General SCOTS deserv-
ings and capacities proved by IS four live coons!'
No wonder Mr.. Webster can find no inspiration in
such theme this. Union.
We would most respectfully and afectionately
inquire of the Register where that big soup-6oa0I
is which the Scott men exhibited here at their bar
becue in the Baptist Grove. Where as that Wing
argu uent'?

The VoTE OF OHIO. Horace Greeley, the abo-
ZIONIST, has been stumpng it in Ohio for Gen. Scott
and, on his return gives rather gloomy view of
Wing prospects through his paper, the N. Y. Tr-
bune. He says that g if 10000 votes cast for
Hale, at least $4,000 of them will be cast by men
who formerly Whigs;'' and he thus concludes ::
6 In view of the binding mist which has obscur-
ed the vision Of large share of her most intelligent
voters impelng them to do indirectly the work of
the Slavery Propaganda while anxousy intent on
resisting it, and the superhuman efforts drive back
the Irish into the fold whence they are desir
oe escaping. the struggle will be hard and
the Wings of Ohio will deserve the highest honor if
they carry Gas trust they will carry1 their State
for Gen. Scott in November. "
This is tantamount TO an admission, on the part of
the strongest Scott Editor of the North that Ohio will
cast her vote for Pierce and King. So will New
York and Pennsylvania. Rich. Eng.

MAINE ELECTION. PORTLAND, Sept. 16. The
majority against Gov. Hubbard will probably reach
:. 900 votes. In the Senate the wings will have
majority. To the House there elected so far 60
dem ocrats and 81 wings, leaving &c districts to be
heard from.
The Temperance question entered largely into
the contest in Maine. Gov. Hubbard, the present
incumbent, signed what is called the Maine liquor
law and he was opposed by Democrat opposed
to this law, by Wing, and by Neal Dow, one of
the leading champions of Temperance. The Leg
islature, which will be Democratic joint ballot,
will no doubt re-elect him.

Bear in mind that James Banks Esq.,, Wing Sub
Elector, in the political discussion in this town on
the 18th inst, distinctly stated that Gen. Pierce had
been charged by of his party with bathing the
Fugitive Slave law but that he made such charge
He knew the contrary to be the fact. He knew that
franklin Pierce had manfully defended that law in
his State, and that he gave him credit for SO do
ing. He went farther. He was not going to charge
Gen. Pierce with being an abolitionist He made no
such charge. This is the substance of what Mr..
Banks said relative to the charges of this nature
brought against Gen. Pierce. We do not pretend to
give the precise words. These admissions have been
made by the Wing Sub-Elector for this district and
we accord TO him all candor in making them. We
believe he was sincere in so doing. VII Journal

of Lynn not long since, and who made himself

will not support him for Congress. We honor

falsehoods to be corrected by the Judgment of the
honest and intelligent masses.
| The following letter, addressed to the Editor OF
this paper, by WILLIAM BUrTERF1ELD, Esq. the
Editor of the New Hampshire Patriot, speaks for
| itself
N. Fl. PATRIOT OFFICE,
Concord, ". II. Sept. IL, 1852.
| Dear SIR A copy of the North Carolina Tele-
graph of the 9th inst. published at Goldsborough,
has been shown to me this morning, from which
take the following:
1.-THE following, from Gen. Pierce's o,vn organ.
the New Hampshire Patriot, is of the highest impor-
! lance:
"He (Gen. P.) is known always to have acted
heartily with his party il. New Hampshire, and we
have proved nconestby that throughout the proong-
ed agitation of late years they have uniformly been
found the side of the Freesoilers and against the
South. General Pierce did but echo the sentiments
| of his party in his State when he launched
HIS BITTER DEM NCIATIONS AGAINST
SLAVERY AND THE FUGITIVE SLAVE
LAW"
What will our neghbor say to this? He has at
tempted to discredital other witnesses brcr ght
tablish Pierces hostility to the Fugitive Slave Law
by charging that they vile Abolitoniss but he
dare say of the Patriot because it is the organ
of the New Hampshire Simon Pures.''
The portion of this article purporting to have
been copied from the N. III. Patriot, is an entire
L/OTySTy. NOLuuS OI CLe KIM ever appeared III us
columns and if any other paper has attributed to
Gen. Pierce the sentiments indicated in that pre-
tended extract it has grossly msrepresented him.
The utter falsity of the charge in respect to Gen.
Pierce being "on the side of the freesoilers and
against the South -, and his bitter denuncations
against slavery and the fugtive-save law" is too
we'll known in this State to require any refutation
and such charge will only excite surprise at the
reckessness of its author and circulators. No man
has been more constantly the object of freesoil
abuse, as no man has been more consistent in his
course upon the slavery question ; and no man has
been more decided, firm and uncompromising in his
open and public support and defence of the Com
promise measures, the fugitiveslave law included.
But in the South, where these facts are not we'll
known, the above charge may produce an impress
sion injurious to the Democratic cause, and there
FORE since it is totally false, have deemed it prop
er to so brand it. repeat that the above pretend
ed extract from the Patriot is an entire fabrication,
and its originator has perpetrated deliberate for
gerry. Respectfully yours, &c,

Editor of the n. II. Patriot.

THE CANVASS OF FRAUDS.

This is emphaticaly- far as the Scott-seward
leaders are concerned-the canvass of falsehoods
and frauds. To enumerate all these falsehoods and
frauds would require far more space than we could

to the work we must, therefore, be content with
exposing the most glazing, and leave the minor
falsehoods to be corrected by the Judgment of the
honest and intelligent masses.

EE Bear in mind that the statement which is
kept standing in many of the Southern Wing
newspapers, to the effect that Gen. Pierce said he
"ioathed y" the fugitive-slave law, IS a lie, manu-
featured for Abolition and party purposes and de-
signed to deceive the people and cheat them out
of their votes. Gen. Pierce has contradicted this
statement over his own name, in the most pointed
and unequivocal manner. .-.-
