FOURTH ADDRESS.

FOURTH ADDRESS.
Ug We publish to-day the fourth Address of the
Democratic State Central Committee, and hope it
will be read by every voter in the County, Of both
parties, as it embraces facts and arguments that
siionld be in the possession of all men. The Ad-
dress IS written III spirit OF candor, and, alhoughit
is somewhat lengthy, yet it embraces so much of
terest that no seeker after truth will tire in reading
IT, Oar opponents have ssned but single Address,
of little over half column, which originally APP
peared on the outside of the Daily Nehs, as though
the Editor was ashamed Of IL. The Wings having
taclv admitted that all their opposition TO the great
measures of the Democratic Party was founded in
elYor, they have nothing 10 sag, having handed
their stock in trade 10 secret sworn combina
iion whose reply 10 all interrogatories s-''I don't
kHopc." In view OF these facts, and the unparalleled
prosperity which charaeerzes every department of
Agricultural and Mechanical Industry, 10 Democrat
will fate in diseharging his whole duty to his Coun-
try by noby and faithfully supporting the candidates
selected by the Democratic Party according 10 It's
established usage.
DEMOCRATS, forgive and forget all minor differ
ences that have heretofore existed among yon-Ral-
ly TO the Standard of your time honored Banner once
more-and the Flag of Democracy will wave in Tri-
umph on the second Tuesday Of October, bearing
alot in its ample folds that glorious CoNSTlrU-
Tl0N which declares equal Rights to all men
GrJoHN S. RICHEY, Esq, desires us to say
that he does not wish to be considered a candidate
for the office of Poor Director He tenders his sin
cere thanks to the Democratic Convention for their
partiality in selecting him for this responsible trust
and, in declining accept, he wishes it distinctly
understood that he does so with his best wishes for
the success OF the Democratic Ticket.
In consequence of the decination Of Mr..
RicnEY, for Poor Director, the County Committee
have selected Mr.. WM STATES, of West Providence,
to Fiji the vacancy, who was the gentleman next
highest IN vote before the Convention. He will
make able and efficient Director, and is Of the
best Democrats in the County.
I he Convention haviEs. by some oversight neg
lected 10 nominate candidate for Coroner, the Com
mittee have selected PauIr Moss, Esq, of South
ampton township, which makes the Ticket complete
Mr. Moss is honest, competent, and reliable man,
and his Democratic friends will rejoice to have an
opportunity to vote ror him.
Gg- Judge PoLLoc& has at length taken the stump,
but his speeches are represented TRADE of
abuse against the Democrats, destitute ofether point
or argument. He aoAges the know Nothing Cues
tlon--never opens his mouth the subject of the
TARIFFS silent about the independent Treasury
and seems to have his affections centered
in the cause OF a5olittoaism.
