colleges and infant manafactories-an honest
laboring man; man without vice and without
a stain; man whose whole life tells us that
he has been true to his friends. true to his
word, and true to the flag. AS was said
of our Standard bearer in the State, so we say
to YOU Match him if you can. You Demo
Gratis who have been read out of your party be-
cause you dared to think that the policy of pros
lection was the true policy for this new and un
developed country, you will have in Major
Grubbs representative Elect him, and this
intend to elect him. We say to the free-trade
Democracy, we intend to beat-you m this dis
trict. When the smoke of battle has cleared
away and you are making list of the casual
ties in action, should your gallant standard
bearer in this district be unfortunate as to be
found among the missing, give yourself no un-
easiness as to his personal safety, but just call
around at Major Grubbs's headquarters, and you
will find him there unharmed, but a prisoner
for say to you. and don't you forget it, he is
the John Morgan that is going to take him in.
