Now, Mr.. Editor, might not ask WHAT'S the
meaning OF all TINS ID" nat conclusion are we
to come to from the above declarations SO posi-
lively and honestly made oy these sood citizens :, :;
4 What inference are we TO ara" from IL? snail
leave the inference and conclusions to be drawn
by an intelligent and compassionate public, and
hope the Senator may be dealt with more chart
tably, than should feel myself competent to do
under the feelings which at present impel me.
!. In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, let me say, that
would have been glad to have raised this matter

! I would gladly have rescued it from the thral-

aud presented our cause to the unbiased judg

upon our fellow-citizens 1t is said that we
have no right to make bargain between our
selves and the people, and in the presence of an
excited popular assembly, the high authority of

much less to contract with the man ''whose
limbs are stiffened with congestive chil' and
.'whose jaws are clinched in the agonies of APP
preaching dissolution" Out, upon such nonS
sense as this We hold that in this county the
people constitute that power behind the throne
greater than the throne itself; but in view of all
this, we will never consent to be dealt with as
ordinary laborers in the field OF in the VINEYARD
