Can't Trust 'cns Again.

AIR. EDITOR When even any man is
asked by Buchananite to support his cam
dldatc for the Presidency, let him remember
tins Is the very same party of false politicians
who in 1852, promised by their Platform. to
resist all agitation of the slavery question,
whether IN or out Of Congress-" and then
turned round in violation ofthcir pledge. and
involved the country i'll whirlpool Of agta-
ton, thousand times more violent than was
ever heard Of before. Let them remember
that 1t Is the very same party Of corrupt and
cNtravagant politicians who by that same
platform pledged themselves to an .'cconomi
cal administration Of the Government" and
who have Squandercd THIRTY MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS more than was Necessary to
carry on the government. You have been
false to your promises you have violated
your pledges you have brought our country
TO ihe very verge Of dis,lnon-you have
wasted our money to keep up your party
organization. We cant trust YOU again.
