Republican vindicator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1857, 1856-09-06
whe,e ase the d.d whig sonators ?

The above question is thus answered by
the Albany Argus:
Clayton, the premier Of the whighs in
the Senate, has declared his hostility to both
Fremont and Fillmore. Everett and Choate
stand apart from the wings Of Massachusetts.
Senators pearce and Pratt, of Msryland,
have given in their adhesion to Buchanan.
Senator Benjamin, of Louisiana, is on the
stump in the same cause Senator Geyer,
Of Missouri, is to follow, kentucky has
sided with The democracy. Tennessee will
follow. Yet Maryland, Louisiana, Ken
lucky, Tennessee, and sometimes Missouri,
were once whig States !"
The Argus adds
1T is said that nota single survivor of
the cabinet of President Harrison votes for
Fremont. The son of Harrison, the so1 of
Clay, the son Of Webster, are all to be
found in the ranks of the democracy, sus-
tanning its candidates and upholdng the
glorious Union of our States

The Farmers Assemhlv.

we publish elsewhere in this paper the
proceedings OF meeting held last week. to
nominate candidates for the Farmers AS
sembly, to be elected by members of the
State Agricultural Society. It will be re-.
membered that the new Constitution of the
Society, adopted at the last annual meetinc
provides for the election of delegates to COM
pose E, an Assembly, by which the business of
ah {, society Is to be transacted. Experience
fully proved that some Plan Of this kind was
actually necessary, as the members of the
society, when assembled en- aaassc. formed
too large and cumbrous-not to say disorder
ly---a body for the proper discharge Of i'm
portaht business. Augusta county is enti-
tied to send FIVE delegates, and the election
