will faithfully carry out my W views
without regard to the opinions Of 9th.

will be:
First, The unconditional abolition
Of the Chancery Courts-that great ju,

comes within its reach, and, like the
horseback, even when surfeited cries
for more--that lions den where all the
tracks point into the q v and none

Second, For hanging all horse
thieves without benefit of clergy"
Third, For the trial Of petit larceny
by the magistrates of the respective
districts without delay, and upon con
v"ic'ion, the penalty to be "nine and
thirty lashes," and the convict required
to discharge the costs by labor upon
the public streets and common high
ways.
Fourth, For the vigorous prosecu
ton of crime whether found in high or
low places.
If my Rubric of political faith suits
you, gentlemen, vote for me, if not,
then support some candidate who will
pander to your passions or nurse your
prejudices for your votes.
