INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES, are nu-
merous this fall. D. Ripley and James
w. Womeldorf, for Sheriff; VIM. l..
Morton and VIM. NJ. Wood, for Com
missioner, and Reuben Rothgeb, for
Representative. 1t is needless for us to
again state that we have no sympathy
with these candidates-the Wing ticket
suits US, and we see no chance to better
the matter by taking up any of these
Independents. All the above named
are Wings, or have heretofore pro-
fessed to be such. The election of
Minieare years ago was brought about
by one of these candidates fRipley)
pursuing course similar to the present.
We believe he will be unable to produce
the same mischief now. Mr.. r. has
frequently been under obligations to the
Wings of this county, and if he is now
reminded that the Office of Sheriff was
not made for his especial benefit, it will
do him no harm. Others can be found
as capable of filing the Office, and more
deserving-such one we believe N. A.
FISHER to be.
James W. Womeldorff is a young
man whom we are sorry to see in so bad
position. There is no chance of his
election. He has been a good and true
Wing and is seriously damaging the
good opinion that he had won for HIM
self.
VIM. L. Morton and VIM. NJ. Wood
have both come on the track more for
notoriety than any probable success of
being elected-neither of them has any
chance of succeeding and it would be
foolish for the friends of these men to
throw away their votks on them.
The card of Mr.. Rothgeb will be
found In another column. We believe
Mr.. R. has been persuaded into his
present position by listening to one
sided and false representations. 1t is
unpleasant to part with old and tried
friends, but as this gentleman has
chosen to withdraw, he must not expect
old friends to follow. He has chosen
to make single issue superior to those
important political principles to which
he has professed warm attachment
he is guilty of that which he is anxious
to believe others are guilty of. The
best we can wish Mr.. r. in the present
case is most decided defeat.

SAALL FRY WILL PLEASE STAND EsfDE
AND LIsTzz-WH1es sBEwARE.-The
man that, after beiag Out-trumped in
the Senatorial and county conventions,
tanned his attention to letter writing, is
putting himself by assuming that it IS a
matter Of consequence how be viii vote
this fall, matter that was never
thought. or cared about except by the
"ready letter writer" himself. Here is
the substance of Card in the last
Courier, signed by Mr.. FirOr:
1 understand by good authority that
it is reported in three townships that |
will support the whig ticket in conse-
quence of their position on the ''Maine
liquor law" this is entirely a mistake.
We call attention to this that Wings
may tunderstandingly yhext Tuesday
the Democracy lUiH adhere TO their party
and their candidates, however loud they
may have talked about temperance
Let not Wings be deceived-fatter not
yourselves that our opponents Will
divide-they will unite as they have
heretofore done. We doubt not that
every effort will be made to produce
this result, and with few honorable
exceptions, this party will concentrate
their strength. Are Wings prepared to
allow the Democratic ticket to succeed,
by throwing away an influence that
with union will triumph as it always has
done. Let Wings be assured that
there is no safety but in adhereing to
the ticket and the whole ticket-one or
the other of these tickets must succeed.
Which shall it be? We know a large
majority of the voters prefer the Wing
to the Democratic ticket-unite and
elect it.

oPposrrroS IN THE DEMOCRATIC

OPPOSITION IN THE DEMOCRATIC
CAMP.-JoHN TIERNAN, of baskerville,
in Lawrence county, has come out in
opposition to Lewis Anderson on the
Democratic side, as the anti-Maine law
candidate for the State Senate. Mr..
Tiernan is the most talented Democrat
in Lawrence county, and will command
a good vote. The Democrats in Law
renee do not altogether like the janus
faced Anderson, hence the opposition.
We admire a man that has decided
opinions and dares maintain them, but
when he comes out with whiskey on one
shoulder and water on the other, occa-
sionally mixing them to make grog for
the Indifferent, we say down with him,
he is not fit to represent any communi-
ty. Such is Lewis Anderson.
Mr.. Tiernan will get quite number
of votes in this county.

SADDLES, &c.-Among the articles of
domestic manufacture exhibited at the
Fair last Friday, the saddles, brides
and collars made by Mr.. H. R. BELL,
of this place, were universally admired
as superior specimens of workmanship.
We would have been glad to have seen
a greater variety of the work of our
mechanics. Mr.. Bell did not need this
public exhibition of his work to recon-
mend it, but we doubt not he has thus
drawn attention to his establishment
which will tell to his advantage
Others will not be slow in appreciating
such advantages.

OuR CANpIDArEs.-As there are
quite number of Independents candi7
dates fh the field, Il Is proper 70 inquire
whether the ticket which was put IN
nomination by the Ehigs is worthy of
! the support Of that party, or whether
the opinions of Wings have been dis
regarded and the principles that ought
to govern nominations have been viola
ted.
ALEXANDER LoGUE, the nominee for
Representative, has heretofore ranked
as an intelligent and reliable Wing,
warmly attached to the principles of his
party, and whenever candidate before
the people has received hearty support.
He is certainly the equal of his oppo-
nents in qualifications and is as worthy
of the unanimous support of his party
friends now as ever.
N. A. FISHER, candidate for Sheriff,
tits true never has been before the peo-
pie for any Office out of his township,
and we cannot but believe that if our
citizens were more generally acquainted
with him, his election would not admit
of reasonable doubt. No one will be
found who will assert that his qualifea-
tions are not equal to those of the Dem
ocratie nominee. He viii make faith
full officer and we trust that we shall
have the pleasure of announcing his
election next week.
REUBEN GRAHAM has filed the Office
of county Commissioner for three years,
and has thus become familiar with the
duties, strong argument in his favor,
as the board will be composed of those
who have not the benefit of that ex-
perience.
Of Mr.. CALoHAN's reelection to the
Office of Treasurer there can be but one
opinion-he will be elected. The cleo
ton of DR.. RArHBURN to the Office of
Coroner we believe is an admitted fact.
S. A. NASH, Esq, the candidate for
Prosecuting Attorney, has been connec-
ted with us for the past three years in
the editorial department of this paper,
consequently we can speak of him from
a knowledge of the man, and feel it our
duty to do SO at present more on ac-
count of the uncalled-for, unjust, sour
rilous and false charges made by ma
lignant enemies. There has not been a
more active Wing in the county than
this gentleman. He has used more ex-
ertion for the carrying out of Whig
principles than almost any other man
is capable of filling the Office to which
he has been nominated, with honor and
credit, and is entitled to the confidence
and support of the whole Wing party.
We confidently expect that he will re-
ceive it,

HLewis Anderson, the Democrat

@-Lewis Anderson, the Democrat
ic candidate for the Senate in this dis
trict, has been industriously engaged
the past two weeks in throwing himself
away. Whenever he gets into an anti
Maine law crowd he is dead set against
the Maine law, and is Just as dead-set
in favOr of it when he gets in tempe
rance crowd. Having, like the rev.
father Dyas, Is. p, committed him
self to both, it will be very surprising to
us if he gets the support of either side,
for it is hard matter to trust such a
man to carry out the views of any party.

RWe saw a couple of very large
pumpkins at the Fair, and were deter
mined to have one, but some of the
Dyas men, suspecting our intention,
had bargained in advance for them
Had we succeeded, it was our intention
to have extracted the seed, put Dyas in
the cavity, plug him up, and send it as
a present to Lewis Anderson, for we are
confident that gentleman has never seen
solid pumpkin.
