YEVAY TIMES AND SWITZERLAND-COUNTY DEMOCRAT.

[for (Ae r««y IVmex. 1 Mr. Editor:—The communication published in your last; number, over the signature of “ A Convcfl to Democracy,” embraced some of my reasons for leaving the humbug parly. c£T-wo occurrences have since transpired, which'may be worthy a passing notice. Pint. So highly offended were the -leaders of the Whig parly," or rather the "Federal clique"

[FronitAe Satlimore Rejn&litan. An Earthquake Shout for the DEMOCRACY OF BALTIMORE!

Wo have elected our mayor, and both branches ofthc city council!! All whigs before. Another siege and the cilidel of democracy still secure!

After one of the most severe struggles ever witnessed in this country* TRUTH, and HONE3TY, and PRINCIPLE have again proved victorious. We have triumplrcd over the enemy, notwithstanding every tool oflraud has been pul in operation to defeat us.

(I thank you, “Hrntn?,” for the name,) of this place, at any one’s .presuming to think fur himself, thai tho “Don” of the Whig office has ordered my paper to be discontinued; yes! even the Statesman, through the medium of which " they were wont to enlighten- my ignorance—of men and measure?. Well, thcro is at least one redeeming feature la this ; they shew a reluctance to spread falnhood where they, know it will not lake— my attention being once awako, they know that the shallowness of their professions arc exposed. ■ So, Mr. Editor, if you know of any one less obnoxious to the clique, who may wish to possess the valuable paper in question, Ifreo gratis, send him to me. 1 will give him a receipt iq full for the volume, and also the back numbers, which 1 would recommend to his atten-

FEDERAL WHIG TRAF TO CATCH VOTERS!!!

«I think the attempt of the Opposition to degrade our moral and national Character, both at homo and abroad, by their humbuggery of hard cider and log cabins, begins to recoil upon the actors. It is saying to the people, you are loo ignorant for self-government, and. we can lead you any where by the scent of a hard cider cask. This is too great an indignity for the people to submit to.

Wake, democrat!, his death to sleep, ' When roars destruction all his dread alarm, Come nerve ye! and assist to sweep, Perdition-low, hia poisoned harm! Hark! the grey past is calling out; . From “alerted urn and animated bust,” It bids you rally to the glorious rout. And crush the Foeman in bis native dust!

Then rally from the furrowed field— From work-shop and from fireside — Strike! ’twould be treason now to yield, When danger threatens far and wide! Come to the rescue! rouse like those Who "know their rights, and knowing dare Maintain them” ’gainst a flood of foes, Who come to ruin and impair!

Here I will drop the cu/tain for the present. Bat before I close, Mr. Editor, I. would say a few words to the moderate and thinking part of the Whig party. Are there rot many among you who are secretly dissatisfied with the leading men and their known and supposed principle?, as well os this pbppct of n candidate that they have brought out! Methinks - I.hear you answer “yes! but wo want a change—and if Harrison does not.please ns we can change again in ~ fouryears.” Beware of such reasoning as this. Much has been said of the power of Government jvboh exercised on elections—how much more formidable would bo the power of Banks and Government united, as they will if the opposition succeed. At the end of four years ask thpm to yield the trust, and the Godlike DamW will say—“Thou troublesi me; I am not in the vein.” Every voter has an influence greater ■mall, and now is-the lime to exon it—every vple will tell sooner or later on the destinies of the country! Fellow-citizens, pause, ponder, and reflect bcfoie you act! A Convert to DsuacnACT.

A Base JLic and Imposition*

The immaculate editor of llto Statesman, in this morning’s paper, eaj B "ForBomeweeks past we have heard nothing from oar loco friends but preparations for a grand County Convention, which was to be holder: at the Court House, in this place, on tho 2d Monday in Court week.” This we say is a base LIE, and that the editor of the Statesman knew it to be such.

And still Another!

This same truth-hating and lying editor, says that the.Democratic majority in Pennsylvania, according to Bicknell's Reporter, a neutral paper, is 2G37—and that other reports giro an actual whig majority of 1071. This ho also knows to bo false as hell itself.

In speaking of the returns from Arkansas, lie says that ho has not received all the returns—that eight counties yet remain to be heard from, which leaves Fowler, (whig) ahead of Cross, (V. B.) 500 voles.

What he says about the meeting at the Court House on last Monday night, some part of it may be true, but that there were 30 or 40 only present is false; there were more than 70 present. Perhaps ha-wasin tho eamo state of mind tint be was the other day, when he had a law suit pending in town, and was at tho grog-shop so drunk, that he forgot to attend to it.

The battle has been fought, anil the democracy have triumphed —triumphed gloriously!—There is no longer a doubt of Gen. Dodge’s election by five or six hundred majority.—This tolls the tale for Iowa. It establishes the fact beyond doubt, that a very largo majority of her citizens are democratic to the core—and looking forward to the time when she shall bo ranged side by side with tho sovereign stales, we have a bright presage that she will form the Key-Sioac of tho Western Arch of the American Democracy.

flfforo Whig Principles.

Exited of a Idler from .Vwirac county, Tennessee, daitd Oct . 9th, 1840. ,“Ai a Uto Democratic meeting in this place, the Whigs hid the impudence to appoint a computes of arangement, and warned to lake the whole management into (heir hands. The Whig orator , Mr. Crazier, declared in the pretence of Jive or six hundred pertons, that If they (f/ic Whigs) were not able to put dawn the preteut dynasty at Ike ballot box, they would by the sword."

C5"The intended great federal rally here on Saturday of the first ireck of our court, was a more signal failure than at Moorefield. For some weeks, the whigs were making preparations for a great turn out; but lo and behold the day arrived, and so few was the number at this "great gathering of the people” that it was thought advisable noi to have any speaking, notwithstanding iho Hon. Geo. H, Dunn, Judge •Stevens, Joseph G. Marshall, and even the abolition Lyle, wero present.

federal meeting at .Moorefield was a (total failure, not more than ono dozen were pretent, notwithstanding notice was given in the Statesman, and every exertion , made to ra'ly at tjjat point. Chagrined and (certified, the federal Abolition lawyer all the way from .Madison, relented with hell in his heart and cursing his federal brethren in this county for their apathy in Iho gbriout cause of federal abolitionism.
