country may look to him, confidently
trusting in his honor, integrity, and
craftsmanship, to bear the burdens and
support the honors of the nation.

by the late National Wing Convention,

the continued examples we see of laying
aside prominent men, who have borne
the burdens and protected the fair fame
Of the nation, when assailed by enemies
from abroad, and enemies at home e-on
the tented field and in the council halls
--and substituting therefor men who are
unknown to the history of our country,
and whose only recommendation is that
we have nothing against them, because
they have done nothing. ,

Ticket for State Officers with entire sat
isfaction, and that in Geo. b. Tinglsy
