effects.
| W In order to throw dust in the eyes Of
| the voters of Cecil County and draw their
attention from the high-handcd and impatient
attempt of certain locofoco Lacks, otlicc- beg
| CARS like himself Office holders and oco(oco
| trickstcrs here III Elkton, to bind the people
by 'oath and affirmation" to support them,
on and on, i'll opposition TO the candidates of
the people themselves we exposed
some weeks aso-thc editor of The Democrat
has rcsortcd to a series of attacks on the Edi-
tor OF this paper. These attacks arc of little
consequence to us: what we wish to do is to
keep before the people the Vaccinations of
the iunto Of Pierce locoGocos here to bind by
oah unsuspecting voters Of the county to re-
main their slaves as heretofore. Let the
voters Of the county, then, remember that
were who got it up-this is the part of the
matter in which they are interested /; and in
the mean time we will attend, as the inclina.
ton moves US, to noticing the ebullitions OF
ally at us.
We have heretofore before the people, of
this county, convicted the little scoundrcl
who piesidcs over The Democrat, not only Of
lying but of positive and downright forgery.
The people of Cecil have not forgotten his in
infamous conduct i'll garbing, and adding to
and protesting to copy from The Globe, the
controversy in Congress between DIR. Fitch
and the Hon. Alex. Evans, with view to
injure the latter; and yet the corrupt little
scamp who was guilty Of that villainy, i'll
which he was 50 securely caught and thor
oushfy exposed, prctcnds to strut about as
though he possessed the confidence of the
people i'll any degree; talks Of prostituting
the press, &C.,
Readers of papers of all parties in this
county have long ago learned what estimate
to place upon him and his lies and lorgcrics:
so where is the use of following him in his
lying attacks.
When he insinuates that we appealed to
the prcjudiccs of a member of our party whom
we had bascly treated; acknowledged ourself
the migrate &C., he is simply the same COM
mon liar we have prorcd him TO be heretofore
When he insinuatcs we had an influential
friend to 60 TO the bedside of Il Commissioner
and afterwards repaid him by cold indi.Icr
ence, he is simply the same common liar We
have prorcd him TO be heretofore.
So Of all his innendocs and charges.
The dirty little dog that he is, he talks
about The Wing as being common sewer
&c. How have the people answered The
success Of The Wing is unparalleled for a
newspaper i'll county of the size Of Cecil
its subscription list exceeds that of his paper
by hundreds, and when he dc(amrs The
Wing he defamcs its subscribers. Accord
ing to the stories of this little creature kl.ow
NothinSs, Democrats, Wings, and everybody
arc Disguised with TIE Cell Wig, and yet
it is filled with their communications and
advertisements, and the post Offices Of the
county arc filled with its large and increasing
editions-such stories are worthy of man
convicted of lying and forgery. and are turn
cd down by the facts with which all the poo.
pie of the county are acquainted.
The greatest spite the little Office bcggar
Sc ms to have against us is that while he
bcgs he is turned empty away-ncvcr once
tasting salt at Turks Island or tcrrapins at
Anna polls while we have again aud again
been successful. lie says we have given out
that we will not accept the office of Clerk to
the Commissioners, and thercupon warns the
people of our insincerity. Such was. the old
song that he sung" thereby greatly aiding the
Wing candidates.
We understand the lying little creature
intends giving US a name this week-that IS
what we might expect from his apcsh imita-
tivtncss; bur he's rather too late. His names
and his puclilc lies are alike harmless and
| idle. The brazcn faced libcler convicted of
| lying and forgery leyond any escape-who
Tor these twelve months past has been heap
ing the bittercst names and abuse upon Amer
'can Citizens, in serving the trucking man
dates of his party for the votes of foreigners,
may rest as well assured that his name and
his value are fixed in Cecil County, as that
we will attend to him in his future dirty,
lying, begging, forging course.
