Jlre you prepared for the Great Battle? In a few dnjt it will be settled for weal or woe. It will be decided whether the federal OFFICE HOLDERS shall rule, or the PEOPLE! Jlre You Ready? It will be a battle that will try mens' souls there must be no running. It must be fought bravely for our liberties are at stake. Frauds Of the most outrageous character may be expected. The Whig banner" every where floats in triumph, still I he federalists are not discouraged, not disheartened. It is not doubtful but the MOST MONSTROUS FRAUDS and OPEN VIOLENCE is intended. They are organizing for is. Then, we say, Freemen, look out for the Federalist, the office holders, who have grown furious like the entangled tiger of the thicket, and fwill retort to any means to accomplish their ends. Count the Votes As soon as the Polls are closed. Insist that this be done, and with opra doors, in every instance. Remember, freemen, tkat the ballot box is your only hope. It is there where
your liberties will be preserved or lost. If you suffer fraud to creep into the ballot boxes
at this trying crisis in our history, when the Money of the country is arrayed in open re
beilien against its laws, and in open warfare against the people you will soon feel the
chains of despotism clanking upon your limbs your boasted liberties will soon take to themsekes wing?, and fly away. These heaven brought privileges were purchased by the 1 hoJ of your fathers, you hold them only upon the tenure of eternal vigilance. Let not the Ballot Box Be taken from the place of voting until the nods are counted ou ! The Federalists will
make one united effort over the ceuntry to do this and when they have the ballot box at
home, how easy will it be for ihem to take out fifty, or a hundred, or any number of Whig iicke'.s, and put in, in their stead, as many federal tickets. Fellow-citizens this has been done in many places. It will be done this year, unless you stand up like men and like . men resist any effort of the Federalists to take home the ballot-boxes, before the votes are

See such men, and talk to them about the compauv "they are in expostulate with them about casting a vote now that may afterwards be a re(roach not only upon them, but upon their children and their children's children, for ederalism is at this enlightened day a deep reproach to any man. When the Polls are open Vote yourself and then LOOK OUT FOR THE REST. Be at hand all day, and if there be t whiff missing, -
It is believed thai you arc in favor of sutaining commerce aad credit, and that you want a sound currency. Can you vote for men who like Mr. Beard iley of New York adopt the motto. Persh credit, perish commerce, or like Gen. Jackson, think that all who trade on borrowed capital ought to break or as Mr. Van Buren himself, thinks Ihe people expect too much Irem government. What right has ha or Col. J.thuson to expect any thing from the people? What have they dons for the people! Destsoyed the currency! Yes, reduced wages and given them a tendency to still further reduction! Yes. Increased the akThmies and given them a vibratory motion, only without any regularity! Yes. They certaial deserve yur support!

In order that you may enter into a fair competition with foreign manufactures do you think you should wring the sweat from the brow of the laborer without rendering him a nropertionare, tquivalant! Must the reduction of the price of labor enable you to make a
fair profit on ?sur manufactures! Then vote for Van Buren. The Sub-Treasary scheme

One of the strangest scenes which political life ever exhibited, was thahwhen in the Hall
of Congress, in open day, in direct opposition
to the professions of their past lives, a number
or infatuated men, from south Carohna.Geor
gin, nnd other stales, voted to deprive a State
ef its representation in Congress themselves the very devotees ef State Rights. What could be imagined more opposite to their pro-!
lessioniT tne wrong commute wa com milled from the worst motives which can ac tuate men apparently respectable. The ad ministration had already waned so far in pub
lie opinion, that Us ultimate sutcess senmed impossible. To turn if possible the doubtful
scales, it was necessary to procure in some way, the support of that mercenary band who' had so long rallied under the banner of Mr.
Calhonn, anj whe, in their ewn lanuagej
were in the market for that party whose vie tory would "enure to their benefit."
