The convention at Harrisbure las’

B. if the twomy-cight votes of Peno-|

tye would break down the irregular
L omination of Mr. Crawford, at Wash.

alitary talebts might be necessary to
resist some supposcd des’gns of the
tloly Alliance. In a mutter of such
i portance, We ought, fellow ciizens,
o guard against mistake, to examine
arcfully, to inquire as to all the facts,
vithin our reach, and to draw our con-
'usions, and regulate our conduct, on
