The two Candidates for Congress.

In this, the First District, the Repub-
lican nominee is .joHN + Porter, and his
Buchanan opponent, JACKSON HADLEY.
Mr. Hadley is so well known, personally
and politically, in our city and in most
parts of the district. that little need be
said on that score. lie is thorough
partizan, an adroit manager, plausible
talker, and interchangeable worker. Our
friends NAV rest assured that every vote

READER! do YOU know Mr. Potter?-
If not, let us tel you what manner Of
man he is. Judge Potter is in the prime
OF life, Of vigorous mental and physical
constitution: possessed of fine talents, .
good education and abundant common
sense: man of firm nerves, straight-lor-
ward manner, decided opinions and set
tied purpose; Of frank and fearless ma
tre. heightened principles, honest as the
dav and true as steel He has had a
good deal of experience in public life,
and has filed every office he has vet held.
TO the entire aceeptation of his constit-
uents. and to his own signal credit. In
the last Assembly, no man OF either par
ty stood higher, commanded more res
pect, or welded greater influence. than
John f. Potter. As member OF Con
gress he would make his mark at once
and prove a most valuable Representa-
tive for our District and State. Such is
the candidate who is presented to the
Electors of this District by the friends
of Fremont aud Freedom. He deserves
our best efforts, and will Justify our
highest anticipations. Give him, then,
Republicans of the First District, your
hearty and enthusiastic support, and be
assured that in electing him, you choose
for your Representative true and tried
man; IN untiinching opponent of wrong,
injustice and corruption; and a zealo"~

Political Discussion.

y discussion of the political questions
of the day, and the position of the two
great parties, came off on Monday eve
ming last, at the Court House, between
Messrs. JOHN EVANS of Racine, and |.
w. Webster, Of this City. The Court
House was filed with an audience, and
the speakers handled the subject very
well under the circumstances. As a
matter of course, Mr. Webster was ON
the side of the Buchanan Democracy,
while Mr.. Evans spoke for the cause Of
Freedom, Fremont, and the Republican
party.
Mr.. Webster took the ground that
the Democratic Party with its Border
Rufian allies of Missouri, and its slave
holding and slave-driying allies of the
South, was the real anti.slayery Party,
and the Cincinnati platform the real an
ti-slavery platform, while the Republi-
can party was the real pro-slayery par
ty, and its platform the real pro-slavery
platform. His argument was mainly
devoted to weaving sophistries to sub
stantiate this monstrous assertion. Mr.
Evans met him on the issue made, and
showed conclusiyely the perfect absur-
dity Of any such assumption. He cx-
hibitcd the course of the So-calied dem

1t, therefore, upon the Electors of Wis
