wrong to encourage political proclivities in ju-

only called upon to consider The claims Of q

has for months past, been publicly identified
with it. Mr.. Mayes has been the edilor of our
Organ and he has ablyan and fearlessy advoc Ated
our principles, whilst the bitterest enemy q a
mercanism cannot tauthfully say, that he has
ia any instance of his editorial career, departed
from that high toned honorof gentlemanly ceur-
tesy, which has ever distinguished him as q
man.
The people have seen that he has been forced
into difficulties by the constant abuse four op-
ponents, simply because he assumed the right ol
a freeman to warmly advocate principles, in
which he truly felt were embodied the destinies
