mAjority of §1 in a voto of delegation voting cxAxttfouscnr'tn

The leaders of the Whig parly, in arranging their State ticket, intended lo combine their materials, go as to tmke varioosbctero goncous interests. By painting off their can tlate (or Govertwr As farmer^ ffaey hope to make capital among the agricultural popu iation. Through their nomination for Auditor, they expect to secure all the rati road interest of the State. By their candidate for Treasurer and one of their candidates for Judge of the Supreme Court, they intended to catch the i&bolitton and Free soil vote.-— But their hopes were spiders wt?bs, and have miserably entangled the weavers thereof in snares' The attempt to make aiarrnerof Mr. McOartyi has proved absurdly abortive. He birniself in tbe native sincerity of Im heart, which whig-tactics hai failed utterly to corrupt, indignantly protested against the deception which his party would practice on the people. A merchant, who has made au independent fortune by selling goods, could not pass current Ibr a farmer. The expectation that, because their candidate for Auditor, is Treasurer of the Belle Fimtainfc, Rail Koad Company, all the rail road men in the {State, lVcsidenls^ Contractors, brakesmen, and laborers would vote the Whig ticket, was so preposterous, that little attempt has been made by them to perfect the plan. The efforts to seeure the Abolition and Free soil vote recoiled, and injured seriously the candidate in whose favor it was made. It was supposed that Mi. Ilowe, lit«ir ofljididatwfor Supreme Judge in the north eastern district would, ftom his known free soil tendencies, aud^y^vowed abolition vtewjs, receivc the ^!C Pa3ft"8e of this^ct, bo entitled to enter free of co«t,

"Vote the whole Ticket,

They may try to make you believe that some pafi'/CU^&r one of your ticket is in danger of defeat* and- they vtill fwpwi to vote for him, if yon will vote for sod«e one of theirs. But in every sucb case they will offer to give their votes only to the very strongest ot the democratic ticket, and to one whom I bey utterly despair of defeating.' Democmts have no need of swapping votes, their whole ticket will be elected. If any portion of"the xvhigs choole to place on their ticket tbe a Me ofany of the democratic" candidates, let them do it,* it is right for tbe patriotic part of them so to do. Tbe democratic candidatcs afe the best men, tbe.y were nominated solely for their qualifications and not for availibiiity on, sg^tc factional grounds.

FELLOW-CITIZENS: On the 10th of August last, #as norninfted by a Dctnqcratic Convention held at Bowling-(jreen, for the ofiico of Judga of tin 6th Circuit. Singe, as well as before that time, 1 was uuni^njusly solicited by voters of all parties, to ha a candidate for that otlrco Sonio weeks sinee I accepted the invitations and nomination, and am

BOW

a candidate. Under strong convic­

tions that Judicial office Ought not to be sought aAer by a resort to the usual course of electioneering, I determined neither to make speeches, nor write circulars while occupying my present position, and so informed my Competitor. 1 believe the peoplo capable ol deciding upon my qualifier tions without oygent solicitations on my part Tim duties of «ty e$ue-would have prevented me fro. takings didoreat course, if 1 had desired it nor f|0uld.I now address you, but for the reason that o»y C^mpeiUftr has very recently published a cir* cular in wlijtch he maintains that die question^ "P*£ki jw'£ polilics to enter into the Jwiicj6y'' is at issue in the election, and invokes the peap/a to decide it. Ue condemns, in just terms, a paly ,, judiciary and leaves it to bo inferred without directly charging it, that I am in favor of it, or lhat iny election will promote tiiat end. Such an inference is so repugnant to every feeling of my nature, thit

I cannot let it pass without notice. My worthy Competitor and myself have acted and voted with the deawwratitf party. I have edited, and ho ytt edits a party newspaper. We have both been de* voted, it n$t warm partisans, Tho ditlerencc tween us seems to consist more in tho manner our becoming candidates, than in anv ihui so far as can understand his ucus 1 then bo well to inquire what that differenco is, and see if it will justify such a conclusion.

The Lawyer? living in Bloomington and Martinsville requested him to become a candidate, and at the Same time recommcndtd him to be a suitable person to fill the office. This, "seconded by numerous fiiendly assurances from citizens of tho district without reference to party" put him upou thd track as a candidate., ,K, \k 1 was nominated by delegates chosen front six out of the eighl eountios of the circuit, without any solicitation or iuteffcrdnce on my part and thir* nomination was also seconded by -fiiendly assuancfsfrom cjUxetw.of the district without reference 'I'he difference then is not in our 'frienduraitces,' but exists between the Lawyers of ^toft and ISfartiwsvillet. oh the one side, and thij lawyers. iJiiCtors, Min-'hanies and Funnrfs titer side, the Coir*
