Beware of_ Miarepreseptations I
irr We deem it,proper to caution our friends
throughout the County to .guard.against the
representations and falsehoods which will be put
afloat from-lids - time until the election to injure
Our cause. ' We understand that a 'number of these
misrepresentations in relation to our rdidates_
are already upon 'the rounds." One of them will
be silenced by-the card of-Mr. Sennrysa, the can.
didate for the office of Sheriff, which will be found
in our advertising colums.
The Right Course;
Enn another column will be found a Card to
the

adhesion to the nomination's, and pledging, his
support to the- WHOLE . TICKET. This is
right and manly—a course which- every Whig
who loves his principles will be expected to imi
tate. Mr. &rex was one of the few individuals,
who were disposed to carry personal and priVate

"Fight cvcr
Were the cheering words of counsel and e - Nlior.
tation of the gallant. Jima to the Whigs of Ten:
rieSiTee, and we commend them to our f fiends. En,
ergy of action—persevering, unflagging energy—is
as essential to a victorious - warfare,- as the cOur
.sing of the life-blood through the human system
is to the preservation of our being. No party can
succeed without omits' zArros, And no organiza
lion can be sustained without an unwearying vig
ilance and activity. The soldier, who • should
ground his arms, or surrender to the enemy, during
slight skiimiShes orlcical conflicts, under the assu
rance that the importance of the contest did not
demand his efforts, ;:vould be unworthy his calling.
There can ke no temporary yielding to the cne•
my f ,without hazarding the cause in more trying
times. The first and only duty is to "FIGHT
ON.FIGHTFAI.E.II!" come weal or wo, victory
ordefeat,—be the conflict when or , where it may..
Let the motto then be adopted as' our ivatch
word—let us realize its efficacy in the contest—
let there be no hesitating, no:holding back, no
doubtful zing support of the cause. If it
be our hear '._lesire to secure the - prosPerity,and
honor and glory pf our country, we must "FIGHT
ON < FIGHT EVER,'!_ until the last vestige of
Locofocoism be driVen from our midst, and the
lofty, Conservative, and well tried principles of
Whig policy be diffused and recognized through
out the land.
Something R Wt.
177 he following Resolution
.'was adopted by
the Locofoco State Convention which assembled
at Harrisburg, to nominate a candidate for Canal
Commissioner :
RESOLVED, That we hail the rising star of I rexas
and her admiWsion into the Union, as the beij.ficinl
result of the ascendancy and diffusion of derriocratif
principles,
in enlarging the AREA OF HUMAN LIGER ,
TV; and the Keystone State will not fail to rally. a
round our patriotic Chief Magistrate,

The Slave Institution was not recognized by
Texas, as a Mexican State: Subsequent to the Rev.
olution Slavery was introduced ; and now, by the
constitution tinder which she comes into the
Union, human slavery is made renrs•rUAL! A
queer calculation this of "enlarning the area of
human liberty."
