John p. Hale was at Nenia yesterday, and there
were about twenty of the old Ilunkers turned

wish to know if Gen. Scott is strictly tenn
pcrancc man-that is, is he teetotaller, or
does he sometimes take little" By giving
nm answer to the above soon, either privately
or in the columns of the Era, you would much
oblige myself M well rs many others in this
vicinity.
General Scott is a temperate man, but il no
understood to be II "teetOtaHer." ...
Here is view of results to which we allude
in long editorial this week-Ed Era
South Prospect, Sept %, iS52-It seems to
me that the deteGt of Scott will be more favor
able to strong Free Soil organization than
the contrary. The Democratic party will raj
| ly under II defeat with their host of HunkeI
leaders. The Wings will break up, if unsuc
cesstul, under the lead of Seward and Greeley
and present II strong front to the slave power
| The vote in this place is no indication of the
| Free Soil strength, as they generally voted for
| Hubbard on temperance principles The Hun.
ker Democrats will probably trade with the
| Whigs-gying them the Governor, and taking
| the United States Senator Such an operation
will unite the Liberal of all parties in one or.
| ganlzation-an organization that will control
the State.

hope you will pardon me for intruding upon
your time to state one or two facts in regard tc
political matters in this Northern region. The
first is, the eagcrness with which the people
drink in Anti-Slavery principles advocated in
your valuable paper. Within three month,
| past with n small amount of effort and bu,
little inhuence-ior | am laboring man
have procured you ftty-two new subscribers fol
the Era. There are now nearly or quite on,
hundred find their way to this Office Their
weekly visits are quite peaceful but they ar
kindlng fire in the political atmosphere tina
| will burst over the heads of Hunker Wings an,
! Democrats the first of November, that vii
cause them TO turn pale with astonshmen,
! Another indication of good, is the establish
ment of the OAs,da Telegraph an organ 70
the Free Democracy, with the banner of Hall
and Julian ut the mast head.
Dublin, Ind, Sept rs, lS52.-Our principle
are gaining ground here rapidly Some o
those whose names send, have not heretofor
acted with u.s. but they will hereafter The,
will not occupy the unenviabe position o
voting for men and dscarding their principles
Of embracing the candidate and splitting
upon his platform. On the contrary they q,
the men who stand on tho right platform an,
the platform that has the right men on it, Tn
Anti. Slavery sentiment in this State is becom
ing more deeply rooted in the minds of tn
people than at any former period We ar
evidently upon the eve of great moral ant
political revolution and the great efforts mad

faces to resist this are tho very means whicl
