Inciter from Ikey Smooth, to his Mo
ther, at Sniootliburg, way down to
Varmouut.
Milford, Sept. 22, 1843.
Dear Marm : Arter I left our leeile town
of Smoothburg, in Varmount, and bidded good
bye to all the Smooths and Slicks who wege
tate in that ar place, I steered a sow-by-sow-west
direction, as cusir. Zekiel, who sails in
the Two Pollys, sez, til I run fowl of a town
they kols Milford. Jist aford I got to this
place, I sold evry darn red oak ham and wood
on nutmeg that I had, so that 1 hadn't darned a
spudgeon left mi the old waggm, and my boss,
sleepy davy, had his pluck so nz by the flour
barls I guved him, and was so oil-fired spunky,
thai I thort I d stop to this town, and gel a load
of notions, to kepe his dandir down. VVal,
inarm, arter I'd bin here eenamosi a weke, I
thort I'd bail oul for Varmount, but tho folks
Jell'd me " Air. Smooth, you belter stay here
a few days longer ; tho young ladies intend to
have a Fair, and no doubt you will be much
pleased with it, and you will have something
new to toll the heathens away up to Varmount."
Gosh Molly ! didn't my blood, which has runn'd
ihrough live or six ginerations of Slicks aid
Smooths, git ruffed when they sed this. My
nose was jist like a big red pepper. 0 yankee
doodle and liberty ! if I hadn't bin afeard I'd
gt: licked myscll, the way I'd licked them fel
lers. Jist to think wunst ! call the Varmouiu
crs hethens ! But my feeloMify riz io sucker
me. Sez I, if I kicks up a muss, I'll have to
lorile out of the lown, and 1 wont see what
kind of an anermal this fair ar. Wal, I disen
tangled ihe quadruped from the wehicle, and
stabtilaied him, as the dandy feller sed, what
came a corijn on the Deeon's darler. Old
daddy time locomoted like a louse on a snail's
gallup, til the da)' tlm the fair was to be heed.
Uut i he day com'd at last. 1 sol up all night
wiilchiu to see ihe fair come, but I couldn't see
iiothiii of the tarnation ihiug; .so the next morn
iii I sed io won of ihe chaps Mister, I kinder
kalkilate the fair wont be show'd io-day, kase
it didn't come to town last night. Good golly,
how quere the chap look'd when 1 tell'd him
this; lie luffed and he snickered, and he Muck
ered and he lafittd, and he stuffed his nose-ker-chief
in hia month. I swow 1 Uiort the coot
would la i iti. Why you verdant Yarmounter,
sez he, Us in the Kademv now. Wal, 1 sol
nglu off to see it, wonderin how the darn thing!
got in without mv soein on it. When I cont'd !
to the Kademy, I seed a tarnation grist-of folks !
waikin about and talkiu so much, thai 1 thort
thar war a swarm of bess sumwhere, (but thar
warn-!,) but 1 couldn't tee liolhitt ou the fair.
Wal, 1 look'd and grinn'd, and griun'd and
look'd, but couldn't see nothin but a hul sight
oi iineineo uxms ; so i axeu a iiansum young i
gal .Miss, sez U. bowm very perlitely, can
ou l eli me war the fair ar ? She made two
or tnree curtshees, and sez she " Here ii
J, Mr." Consarn the U-etle thing, doni you
think, marm, she was verrv eagertistical, to!
tell a splinter fire stranger she was fair? I
do, mi on 1 do. 1 ax your parding, Miss, sez
, but 1 kalkilate. you dont zaclly understand
uie. I want to know where I hat thing they
call a fair is, that they're gotn to show. Dear
inn, Mr. Smooth, sez she, how verry exsentric
von are ; all that you see in the room is the!
Jatr. W he, whe, i-ez 1, (taikin parley voo j
French, like cnsin Slick, ihe Attashay, when
lie wants to say yes,) I reckin 1 see into it shall have full power to ratify the nomination of
low ; the folks cum in and look at the thing-j the National Convention, and to make such ar
n.ubol, and pay their fare, like we do down to j rangements for the conduct of the canvass as
armotmt, to ride on the liyin bosses. O now, j ihey may behevebesl adapted io insure success

i, out that's a good plan; the people in this
'ate be grate heihens. and it's right Jo edicalc
Law me, Mr. Smooth, sez she, we have
i uotheit in this country ; they're all out in
1 id Zcbedee and Feegee Islands. Wal

r At a meeting of the Whig Convention of the
city of Baltimore, held on Thursday evening,
the 21st September, the following preamble
and resolutions were unanimously adopted :
.Whhreas, a joint meeting of the Whig
members ol Congress was held in Washington,
on Saturday, the 18th of February last, for the
purpose of considering the propriety of holding
a National Convention to nominate candidates
to be supported by the Whig party at the next
election of President and Vice President, at
which meeting the following resolution was
adopted, to wit :
" Resolved, That the Whig members of Con
gress, concurring in tho expediency of the pro
posed Convenhon, and yielding to the wishes
expressed, that they sltould designate a time
and place, do respectfully recommend that a
Whig National Convention, for the nomination
of candidates for President and Vice President
of the United States, be held al the city of
Baltimore, on Wednesday, the 1st day of May,
1844, and thai the said Convention he composed
of delegates from the respective States, equal
to the number of Senators and Representatives
of each Slate in the Congress of the United
States."
And Whereas tho Whigs of the city of Bal
timore being deeply impressed with the impor
tance of giving to the nomination of the Na
tional Convention the most conspicuous and au
thoritative of ratification which their brethren
throughout the Union are able to confer ; and

service of the Young Men's Convention assem
bled in this city on the 4th of May 1340, and
ihe deservedly great influence of that Conven
'lion over tho country ; and believing that the
canrass of 1844 may be animated by the same
pairioiic enthusiasm, and be conducted with the
same eminent success, if ii be commenced and
directed under the same intelligent guidance :
they unanimously recommend through their
delegates in this body, to their Whig brothers
of the several Slates, the formation of a Young
Men's Convention of Ratification, to be com
posed of delegates from every district of the
country, whoshall meet in Baltimore ou Thurs
day, the 2d day of May, 1814. ,
Therefore, Resolved, That it be recommend
ed io the Whigs of the several States, io ap
point a Young Men's Convention of Ralifica-
uon, to assemble in the city of Baltimore, on
Thursday, the 2nd day of May, 1844, who
the name of the true and patriotic Whigs of
the city of Baltimore, invite the largest ap
pointtnent of delegates to the Young Men's
Convention of Ratification, tendering to them
as well as the members of the National Con
vention, cordial welcome to house and home;
and hospitable entertainment during their stay.
Resolved, That the editors of the journals
throughout the U. States, friendly to the Whig
cause, be requested lo publish these resolutions,
and to invite the concurrence and aid of the
Whig's to give them effect.
