Corruption and violence of every de- ; j scrij.tion were practiced by the Padi- , ' cals in almost every part of the State, I ! at the last State election, and thus was nullified the choice of the people ; of the State. To accomplish this the j j ballot-box was polluted, fellow-citi- zens, bv the use of money and the j practice of all kinds of fraud. A rad- j : ical governor and a radical legisla- j ' ture, in consequence, were chosen. j j A vigorous effort must he made to j prevent a repetition of these gross ! outrages, and it is believed by an im ; mediate and united struggle, and 1 through organization of the party, that this result, so desirable, can be accomplished.

In a number of counties this has been attended to ami matters are in good shape, but in others it seems as if those who have charge think no effort should be made until the ticket is nominated. This is a mistake the sooner our houses are put in order the better prepared we will be for the light.

Will the people not pau.-e and re- i fleet that they may see to what form of government we are, with certainty, drifting, and apply a remedy boforo it is too late?

With out religion, they would destroy it wherever found ; and foes to peace, they would revel in a hell of disorder and crime. We hope that in the fu ture our people ma- be more careful in the selection of their political di vinities. They have been heretofore unfortunate, but will not again be de ceived if they will but examine the feet, before they fall down to worship the idols set up for them.
