THE ELECTIONS.
W again advert to this subject, iinportuiit from
it own intrinsiic merit, and from the bearing which
it is to have on the Presidential election. There
is no time to lose. The election throughout the
8laln will lake place in less than a iimmiIIi, ami
whatever iadone must bo done speedily. We again
urge the importance of contesting every inch of
ground, of bringing out candidates in every county
where there ia a hope of success. Nothing is er
er gained, in a political contest, by timid and weak
csinscls. Moo struggling in (ho cause of the Con
stitution in the cause of popular rights against
caucus dictation, should never depond, tnm-h less
despair, la a good cause, hardly any thing ia im
possible, where men exert Iheuiselven, and lay the
and; reformat mnbrrorel he people.- Our pro.
poets never have been as bright to overthrow Van
Uurenism and redeem I lie state Irom the imbocile
and corrupt party, which has had the ascendency.
Van Biircn and hia satellites must be made to stand
on their own merits, .-They cannot .much longer
ride Gen. Jackson, whom they first vilified and
abused, and now Ciwn upoft and flatter in the most
servile and disgusting manner.
The independent people of this State never will
tolerate '"or adopt the Albany system, by "which,
through caucuses and the mnuagement of a few lea
dcra, every oflker is appointed, svnxy-jncawe is
coi it ruled, if it ia unveiled to them in all its naked
iniquity and galling despotism. They never will
agree to proscribe and treat aa aliens a large por
tiou of their fellow citizen almost a majority
for no wnnt of attachment and devotion to republi
can principlea and institutions, but merely on ac
count of a. ditSirence of opinion a to inen.
Wiadom ia not uufrequently taught us by our
adversaries. The letter of Mr. Henry, which we
published last week, ahows,us how active are lo he
the exertion of our adversaries, how untiring their.
effort. The country will be flooded by the gros
sest misrepresentation. - Every humbug which Ti
is supposed can have any influence will be report
ed to. Votes will be boldly claimed, ami the most
codfident assertions resorted lo, to carry into the
Van Buren rank the timid and the wavering.
Forewarned, let ns be forearmed. Lei the com
mittee of vigilance and correspondence, let every
citizen who believe the most vital interests of the
country are at stake, exert, himself to spread in
formation before the people. . Give them the mean
of hearinr both tides; and wo cannot doubt as to
the-resulti The long devotion of Wrfrre-snd-TyH
ler lo th cause of republican principle, their sup
port of those principles which the Southern eople
believe so important to the preservation of our
free institutions, their spotless purity ami integrity
