TO THE VOTERS OF LUNENBURG COUNTY.
The time is approaching when you will be called OIL
to select officers for your county. Some at work
for their personal friends are crying down with
the "Know Nothings" and put in Democrats; some
say, let US initiate the example OF the dark lsutsrns
(who all traitors and obnoxious men,, and turn a
of them out of office and put III our own men all
hands engaged in a hot discussion TO who and
who will be elected pledged TO vote for this
or that man. the weather cocks trying 10 nd out
which way the wind will blow sud strange to say
have not beard for the first time the question raised
as to who is best qualified TO the people. Now,
say, first, that your friend may not maks az good
officer somebody eses friend secondly, that We
Democrats should not initiate the example Of bad
men ; thirdly, that the question should no, be who
will he elected but who ought to be- fourthly that
good citizen will NOT pledge or sell his vote to any
man, but will always vote for the best man in the field
on the day of election fhy, that the weather cocks
and office seekers had better wait little while long
or to be that they know from what quarter the
wind will blow. And say to all, remember what the
Scriptures teach us, 'to do good unto and love our
enenes," and thus henp Goals Of fire OH their heads;

they will ratify the nomination Of Fillmore and Don.

form. Like Horace Greeley, they will swallow the
candidate and "spit" upon the principles. Neither
will they have much to say Of the Pope. Even their
denuncaton Of Foreigners will be tempered by some
touch of mercy. The whole thing will be a hollow
plausbty for the genius Of Sandy Stuart will pre-
