Wc take the lihtrty to eantion the citizens of this county ajaui't some cdeeti.iiicrring tales that have bicn got up will. in the pat IV w ilays. An individual passed tl.ronL.-h this place a short time since, ami publicly pnw hiimcd that the people of the county had been transfi rrrd and fold in consequence of the declination of Mes-rs. Watts ami Uassktt. A report has also cone abroad that a single ir liridu tl compelled these gentlemen to withJraw to make room f..r Mr. I'M'M'iEit. Ami another rept-it is th.tt Messrs. Watt? and Dassett hare not dt lined. We look sipon the authors of these reports a5 men destitute of all regard for truth, and it eviness. in a glaring manner, the "ruling passion strong in tleath." Will the people of Dearborn believe that they liave been sold, when tliil statement i made by a person who is deeply interested in the matter? We think not. The tnic state of the case is this : There were Vo candidates in the lower end of the county, and o:e at Lawreneet:u'gh and theie was no earthly possibility of defeating the Lawrence burghers ; and seeinc this, a number of the citizens requetcel the nominating committee to meet and bring out a new candidate, as Messrs. Watts and 13asst-tt had both e xpns-cd their wi-h to give way, in favor of a third man. If any person disbe.ieves this, wc refer to sundry citizens cf Rising Pun, Hartford nnd Wilmington, who belong to both political parlies, ami to numerous other citizens of the county. This is the transfer and sale--Ycs, this is the manner in which the people of Dearborn have been sold ; and to whom ? not, we trust, to the Lawrenceburgh candidate. The report that Messrs. W. ami l. were backed out by one man is nonsensical it is indeed ono of the mo-t ridiculous ideas we ever heard nf; but it may answer for a drowning man to electioneer with. Yo have said we say acain and we dare any man in the xrholc county to meet us and contradict the assertion that Col. Watt; and Mr. Dassett icuhcd to dttlinv. The committee met, anil nominated Mr. riummcr, and it was not one man who done it. The report that the old candidates have not declined is kni.wn to be false, and we will pay no attention to it here. We have no doubt there arc many other reports set in motion by men who see that their cause is about going "by the board but we caution the people against believing them. These reports have no relation to the countyscat question whatever, and it is the policy of the Lawrenceburgh candidates to circulate them, in order to lead the public mind from this important matter. We hope that such men as these will receive from the hands of the people their due deserts on Monday next. MORE MISSTATEMENTS. Since the above article was written, we have received a letter from a highly respectable gentleman in Manchester township, who statesthat Walter Armstrong was there on Saturday last, and declared his intention to be to rouse the old political excitement and bring the Jackson party to bis support. We arc not surprised at this movement, for wc have ever been of opinion that the Lawrenceburgh candidates would resort to any means which might have the least tendency to defeat the county meeting ticket. But we still think that neither party will suffer themselves to be led away by old party prejudices we will not believe it until we see it. Our correspondent also informs us that a report has been started there, that Col. Watts will positively be run, and that the late meeting was a mere sham to gull the North part of the county; that Mr. Plummcr is opposed to the removal, antl that be would not consent under any circumstances to be a candidate. He gives a most positive denial to the truth of these reports, which were all fabricated by a Lawrenceburgh candidate. A meeting was got up at Manchester, on the 2th ult. by the Lawrence'burgh candidates, for the purpose of agreeing on a ticket to be run

in opposition to" ILViiminglWn'ina'iroM. At that time there were four Lawrenceburgh candidates for Representative?, who were on the srround, and our correspondent states that

there were not three other men at the meetin who kner the object of it until they cot there. Mr. Plummcr was called to the chair, but 1, was ienorantof the object of the meeting, and called tor an explanation. He was then non.i nareu as a can..ie!ate for Kepresentative on the Lawrenccbur&h ticket, which he positively de clined accepting. We have no hesitancy in giving publicity to the above statements, as our correspondent is willing to be held responsible for the correctness of them. A correspondent ir. to-day's paper asks. 'Will all parties unite on the question of removal.' j '-nr( f" !ll"l we see no reason why they should not. The removal of the (unt eat :' omnicn cau'e, and the u-hnle county is deeply int reste.l in it. We arc well aware a ei slain candidates arc anxious to draw tllC ?'' ' Hue, l,i;t we aie proud to say that these candidates do not l.c lone: to us thev aie the property of the LnwrtnccburJ.ers. J low world it look new, after ail that has 1 een said arid done after Ja ksonifes and Anti-Jae-k-senitcs have met, farmed a ticket, and plod ceil themselves to support it how would it look, we a-k, follow citizens, to draw the party line in hostile array, ami say you will vote lor r.o man who dies not belong to your party? Who would ask lir a bettt r symptom of weakness ami infatuation J For ourselves, we declare that no man shall receive our support hereafter we care not if he belong to the same pr.lt'lira! party that wc do who, on the veryeve of the election, would ride round the county anil endeavor to get up a party excitement, by circulating falsehoods in order to secure his election. Such a man in our opinion, is unworthy the i onfidenee and support of any people. Hut we cannot for .a moment permit ourselves to believe that the people of Dearborn will suffer themselves to bo governed by the el I Jackson and Chi question. Look at the county meeting ticket, fellow citizens. On it you have Thomas Howard and IS. II.Torceut, who are friends of the Administration, anil Messrs. Pi.vmver ami Walker, who are opposition men. All four of th e-e persons arc mild politi cians, and we question much if a ticket could have been (orniod, composeel of men wlio will represent the county belter than they will. I' vnn f.ivor these men wilh your confidence they will not betray it they will represent tiie ;ch:le county. Thin go to the polls, on Monthly next, d it-robed of all political bias anil redress the w'oncs you have been so long compelled to endure by a sd of men who have no interest in common with the people of the county by men w ho idolize and doat upon a town which w as never intended for a County Seat. Wc invite yon to the polls, and there, as "a band of brothers joined," let the Lawrenceburgh candidates know that you poorly appreciate their shallow pretensions and nonsensical electioneering talcs. In the humble part we have taken to promote the success of the county meeting ticket, we have been prompted solely by a desire to advance the interest of the whole county. His true, we have onr political preferences in common with our fellow citizens, but wc have not for a single moment permitteel these to take possession of our thoughts. If the people of Dearborn then, will act on the daj- of election as we have elone, the Ticket will succeed no thing can present its success; and in t'.iatevotit we shall be amply rewarded for all that we have said and done. tiik yiiiti:vati:k caaal. We lately made a call on the Law renceburgh candidates for their sentiments in relation to the construction of the Whitewater canal. We done this at the suggestion of a number of vovoters of this county ; but these candidates remain deaf to the call. They want to tax the people of the trholc State to make a canal that w ill benefit their own town. We would like to know if the people of Dearborn will vote for such men? This canal will be of no advantage whatever to this county. Our citizens have as good an avenue for shipping off their surplus produce as they can desire ; and this canal will bring other produce into competition with their own. Do they then want to have their lands and tenements taxed to make a canal that will do them an injury? If they do not they had best vote the county meeting ticket. For the Times. To the Jacksonians of Dearborn county. Fellow Citizens 1 have a few words to say to jou on the subject of .bc approaching election. 1 have always been a mild, but unyielding supporter of the present Chief Magistrate; but it is my intention to go to the election on Monday and support the entire Wilmington ticket. 1 intend to free myself from all political prejudices and I hope that the whole Jackson party will do the same. Fellow Citizens we are viitually pledged to the Clay party and they are pledged to us, to support no man but those nominated at Wilmington. Shall we then permit old party excitement to take possession of our better judgment, and disregard that pledge? JNo! 1 teel assured that there is too much love oi honor in our party to be guilty of such actions. Then, freemen, come to tbe polls and show the Clay men that in conjunction with them you are asking "nothing that is not clearly right," and that you will "submit to nothing that is wrong." Fellow Citizens wft have been too

long under prrly influence the daymen have been too long under party influence, and our county alB-trs have suffered under lliis state of thing. Lrl us now attend to orirotm alE-iir." Untr,-

Editors Will you permit me to occupy a small portion of our columns, while I make, a short address to the opposers of fhe present administration in this county? If so, I wish to rail the attention of that parly to the all-important subject of removing the County Seat from Lawrenceburgh. 1 want to say to (hat party (hat I intend to vote for the Ticket which was nominated at Wilmington; and I most ardently hope that all who think on politics as I do, will go all lengths for the nomination. I want to see the old Clay party act like free and independent citizens on the day of the election; and by our actions convince the Jacksonians that we can unite wilh them in the most friendly manner, in endeavoring to put down the Lavrenceburgheis,and establishing the Court House at the centre. Let us, fellow citizens, for once throw otrihe shackle s of party let us join in wilh the Jacksonians in asserting and defending our local rights let us all appear on the day of the election as we did in days gone by, with "measures and not men," for our motto let us vote for no other men but Pi.ummeu, Howard, TounEUT,and Walker and by doing so we will maintain the honor of the party, which was pledged to the Jacksonians at Wilmington, on the 2Glh of Apr'l l ist. Let no man in our party be backward in showing his Ticket to the Jacksonians on the day of the election; and let us all appear on the ground "as a strong man armed," and ready to go any length with the Jacksonians, iu defence of the rights of our county. AN OLD CLAY MAN. For the Times. THE COUNTY SEAT. Messrs. Editors: Will all parties unite on the question of removal? Surely men will not forget their best interests so far as to lose sight of the main object, to remove the Seat of Justice to the centre of the county, to gratify a little partial attachment the' may have cither for men or party. Fellow Citizens, three hundred of us have met together at the county meeting and declared by a unanimous voice that we were in far vor of the removal in question we have reconciled political feeling by an equal division in our candidates. Our ticket is composed of two Jackson and two Clay men. If we vote at all let us vote the whole ticket, or the cause is lost. To vote a part and nut the whole is just equal to not voting at all. Do, do let us unite then, to gain the object in viev. Let nothing be done in secret. Let every man act open and above board and show by his acts that he is either for or against "equal and exact justice." Let us have no behind-lhe-curtatn work, but let every man, whatever he does, do it in the face of plain and open day we shall then know how to appreciate him. A friend of Justice. For the Rising Sun Times. TO TIIE PEOPLE OF DEAKBOKN. Fellozo Citizens: We are told by the Lawrencebui gh candidates that if elected they will represent the "whole" of Dearborn county. Now I am not disposed to dispute the veracity of these gentlemen at all, for under all circumstances I am rather inclined to believe there are some honest men in Lav: renceburgh ; and for aughi 1 know they are all so. But there is a self-ruling principle implanted in the breast of all men that is constantly prone to make them lose sight of the interests of others while ever they can "turn the balance" in favor of themselves. To overcome this innate propensity, to have every thing subservient to their will, requires more philosophy and a deeper sense of "rrmi nn.l Mart lustice man, i am fearful, the "Burehers" possess. Blind ed by self-motives, who can duly appreciate the rights of others? A man

may be intentionally honest, but still be so far deceived by self-intercut as to He gui.-ty of the grossest acts of injustice toward other just as there is many a "clever hearted fellow" who never thinks of pavinr bis dht.

ISow, F ellow Citizens, whether thoe gentlemen will really represent the "whole" county if elected, is not. a- -before stated, for me to dispute. This much however we all know, that the "whole" county has never yet been represented from that quarter; and judging the future from the past, we have not the slightest grounds for hoping that it ever will be. "Then, inasmuch as we have better "timber" of our own, why should wc go there !:j procure an inferior article? It is sincerely to be hoped that evciy man will consider well the important crisis now at hand, and prepare himself to come to the polls with me mm purtmreo pro cct:n L r rr it that he will come tin-re prepared to proclaim and defend the lihcriies nf (hp people and to make it manifest by supporting the county ticket that he is in favor of "equal snd exact justice" being administered to all. Come forward e friend? of removal. and rallv around the standard of vnnr rig. its. Come together ;is :i h.n.rl nf i . 1 1 i uromers anu unite your strcnoth in support of such measures as shall insure the removal of our Seat of Justice, to the centre of (he population. There is nothing more MHrcrtjoHaWt: than it should lie held at Lawrencebur-rh: and there is nothing more reasonable than that it should be at the centre of population, where all can have an equal chance o( dial ing its benefits. J Ub 1 ICh. TO THE ELECTORS OF DEARBORN' C0LNTY. Fcllo'iC Citizens In suffering my name to come before you at this late period as a candidate for county commissioner, it the ensuing election, I would inform you through the medium of the press that I do not boast of my great qualilications for said oflieo but if elected I shall endeavor to fill said ollice impar tially without distinction to sex or party. Such is the ground I stand upon, and when I act otherwise, I shall be no longer worthy to hold said ollice or even live on earth. I am apprised that something may be said, either written or verbal, of me, to injure my election; and the short period will not sutler me, in the remote parts of this county to reply. I therefore leave my name with my fellow-citizens to dispose of at their own option, and should I be favored with a majority of your suffrages you have my thanks in return for your gratitude.
