This time’, ns usual, the Federal party, had recourse to the foulest means, and most dishono ruble practices, to secure its triumph. Defamation of the most yillanous kind—deception of the mean est’ami boldest discriptinn—and: falsehood of the rankest dye, wore freely used end daringly employ ed to blast tho characters of the Democratic nomi nees, and cart upon them guilt and odium, which, if true, ought and would consign them to the deepest infamy.

But, here, ns in the wat ohBl2, where tucasos held high its hideous front, and Government was slander od and impeded in all its operations, Federalism has I met a severe rebuke. The people, who -love- their country, its noble institutions, its freedom and honor, have refused and scorned lo give their sanction to a party that could so far forget ils duty and patriotism, as to give “oidond eom/ort" to our enemies.

The hearts of the people were, shocked to perceive so wicked an attempt to wrong and de feat SO poro and upright a man. They knew Gov.
