Fns. TxrRrss- GeHfie'neni We have Just re
ceived your La, weekly paper. and was very
much surprised TO fad therein. the following
article froo the Journal of your place. with
your remarks thereto attached.
The Paoli Coussiiuiionalis', full hlooded
KN paper. SAYS. The abolition State ticket
will receive 40 aid from the Fillmoreites ia
that region "-Jornai
We would be under obligations II the
Journal would point out that sentence Ia the
Pa0li ConstltutionAlist. wherein the above dec
laraiion j. contained. We have examined the
Constitutionalist, aud have been unable 10
find any such declaration Until the Jour.
nal produces the proof We pronounce the
assertion false .--ErDFess
We feel under many obligations 10 you for
giving such prompt denial Of such glaring
falsehoed as the above. perpetrated by the
Journal. No such declaration as the above.
ascribed TO US by the Journal. can be found in
the Constitutionalist. We are utterly at a loss
10 know how the Journal could have the un-
blushing efrrontery to make such a charge
against US: for We feel confdt:.t that there
has been nothing published ia the Constitu-
tionalist. either as editorial or otherwise, that
would induce any reasonable or honorsbly dis
posed person to draw from thence any such
conclusions. 1t is true, thst We. IA common
with large portion Of the Fillnore party In
this section. were not pleased WITH the action
Of the Convention that nominated the Peo-
pies ticket. nor with the subsequent sctisn Of
some Of the members Of the Republican party
Yet We can assure the Journal that on that
account We will not bs 80 silly .. 10 hug to
our bosoms the present corrupt old line pro
slavery parry; nor do we believe the Fillmore
ties in this region will be guilty Of such an
outrageous act.
We would support Morton in preference to
Willard upon the question Of State policy alone
yet there are other insuperable objections 10
Wills is reckless. selfish partisan. aud
would sacrifice almost every thing. in order
to promote selfish or partisan purposes. Why

cheating them out OF the New Albany aud
Vinccunes Road; and surely if this is the
opinion of those attached to the sasae party
with Willard concerning him; they viii not
think ii strange il tie Fillmore party and
many of the old liners too, will Withhold from
him their support. We vorld also like to
know what there Is shout a il'ard or his plat.
form that would induce the Fillmore party 10
vote for him. We confess oar utter inability
TO see Why they should do so. The Journal
therefore. need not Law the "fattering unet;on
to its soul" tif indeed il has any, which we
are disposed 10 doubt. after seeing the above
srticle) that the Fillmoreites of this region
will not support the Peoples State ticket in
preference ;c the old line rule or ruin" tick
ct. We believe We know the feeling in This
region upon this subject. and with few
ceptions. the Rillmoreiies n.9 support the
Peoples ticket next October.
Inssmuch as we DO not exchange with the
Journal. and as your paper was the only one
in which we observed the charge preferred
against US by tie Journal. ve address this
aote to you with the hope that you will give
it publicity and thereby SCI the Fiilmorises IN
this region as well as ourselves, right before
the people.
Respectfully yours. &c.
