. JLHE,rEdp.EFs I icKET.--It has al-
ways he n Vu n derstood tJy-, the ;fii end s o
3V, H. Crawford, that the leading ob
ject of the projectors of this ticket was
to prevent him from obtaining the vote
of this State, by pre Vailing upon all those
who preferred any of the "other candi
dates for the Presidency to unite in sup
port ot it: But as the election draws
near, : the people become dissatisfied
with a course which mav aive the Ivote
of the State to a man, with whom a larre
portion of them will be dissatisfied. r
For instance, if all opposed to Mr. Craw
ford, vote for what is called the People's
ticket, and it should succeed, and the
Electors give an united .vote for Gen.
Jackson, the friends of Mr. Adams will
ave given their suffrages to a man
Jiot of their choice, and will, of course,
avergood cause to be dissatisfied ; and
i f, on the other hand, the Electors give
their nmted vote for Mr. Adams, the
friends of Gen. Jackson will have a like
ground of complaint and dissatisfaction ;
and if, as a writer in the last Star re-.
commends, each person were to write
theVname of his favorite Candidate on
his tirketi the Eler.tnrs would etill o-ivn
Mieir votes as their own consciences di-
rect them. Nor can we see any way
ot avoiding this dilemma, except by eve
ry man voting for the ticket which con
tains the n am es of persons on whom he
can confidently rely will vote for the can
didate of his choice. This,, it is true,
may divide the vote of the State, but it
will truly represent the wilL of the peo
ple on this important subject.
Decency.- The prints which are jn
opposition to Mr. Crawford's election
are ' never satisfied but , when engaged
in vilifying him. The Portland States
man informs Jts readers that the Sec
retary .of the Treasury is more deserv
ing of elevation to the gallows than to
the Presidepcy. The New-York Ame
rican proclaims that Gen. Root, "the
Lieutenant Governor of the State,' was
drunk in the Senate at Albany whe.n
in the performance of his duty as Pre
sident of that body. The Columbian
Observer, of Philadelphia,' denounces
Mr. Crawford as a, counterfeiter and a
perjurer. ; . ine ixauonai journal, m
Washington, denominates Mr. Galla-
in a whiskey insurgent The Phila
delphia, Franklin Gazette, declares
that an editor friendly :to Mr Craw-
ord is a ivhtte-livered hind, and me

spirit worthy of imitation. "Tn ash-

Jthey are following thtftneenuve of their

jvvith equal zeal the good examples before
them. In Fredericksburg, ' Richmond,

every little village, and in all the
Country around, they are making prepa
rations for a suitable reception of their
distinguished visitor, such an one as
will prove. flattering even to his high
claims,- & honorable. to themselves. Eve
ry, person appears to be operated on by
d simultaneous wish and a feeling of
auty, to contribute in his own indivi
dual capacity. Nor have we yet reach
ed the achme of. feeling, of joy, of ex
ultation, of glory. As. Virginia, during
the storms which lowereitin our politi
cal horizon, and bursted on us during
the dark days of the Revolution, expe
rienced more(than an equal portion oi
peri of privation ami the other comi-
tant evils of civil war : so since the
halcyon days of peace have returned;
and more particularly on this occasion,
has she the greater cause to rejoice in
tNe attendant blessings which follow
in
bei
her train.! At 'Little York, it will
remembered Cornwallis surrendered
ankl at j Little York, . on the 1 9th of
lilt X4
81, which terminated' the war
October 1824 , as an anniversary of that
important epocn, one in vvnicn -uenc-
ratLaiayette acted a distinguished part,
hay e ' the; sons of ."Virginia, from the
highlands and the lowlands, from the
north and from the south, .wi th one
voice and with one acclamation of joy
ful jwelcome, invited this soldier of the
Revolution. What a spectacle ! how
noble, how grand to the contemplative
mi lid ' how nattering to our- nature
I almost envy Virginia her share in th
toils and suft'ering of the siege, when i
is o be counterbalanced by such i
scene and such a collection as v wil
be present oh that day. . . "
Next to i Virginia, North-Carolina
will! be honored with the1 preseWe of
thisidistinguished Veteran, on his pas
sage to the south, and shall we, fellow-
citizens, when tms overwhelming tide
of fejeling, of fasting gratitude, is burst
ing upon us, sit in sullen silencej with
our arms folded ? Shall this opportuni
ty to1 make a feeble return' of - our acr
knovi'ledgments be permitted to pass
bv unheeded ? Are we - unlike the
rest of our c6untryinen, that the same
great cause will not produce the same
ettect on us r . uo we possess less vir
tue, less patriotism, less gratitude, a
less ardent love of liberty or, admira
tion of its supporters, than tlie citizens
of our neighboring states? I hesitate
not for a reply, for I. feel well assured
that on this as onill previous occasions,
North-Carolina will not have to blusb
for the conduct of her sons the same
generous glow of feeling which is evi
dencetl on the arrival of Gen. Lafay
