I The two partiet are now fairly array,
ed against each other in this State. The
Judge is judge no longer, but has resign
ed to prepare himself for the battle;-
and. we confidently belie ve, to incur a
Waterloo defeat. As to Morehead, he
must undoubtedly be elected, for he is. a
true Whig hat a thorough knowledge
of political iuriswidence and is em
phatically "one of the people," deeply
interested in the well-being of his State,
for he does not blush to be found la
boring. He is one of those who do not
hope to rise byprayer alone, or like lw
in Atop, when niscan wasmtreo, ib
flat on his back, and cried 'Help ,Her-
cules!" but he puts his shoulder to the
- . w m m ft tffl
' wheel and then calls on iiercuies. i ne
body as well as mind is placed in requi
sition: and this, added to untiring ewi
gy, industry aud strict intecrity, nwkei
the man worthy the confidence of a
Slate. Such a man is'Juhrf M. More
head. h His superior could scarce be
fauud withia the limits of the State, and
we dare say that in his own' and sur
ronndins counties where he U intimate
ly known, he will command more Votes
on account of personal respect add at
