It is a glorioils pnvuee, and one which v.e jrusC will always be cor rects estimated, and exercised with a due degree, of "caution, and jealousy. In voting for Members of Assembly, let no one suffrr himself to actuated by - private or personal considerations. Let the sole questions on coming to the e lection ground be, who will best pro mote our public interests? Who will most strcngtnen.me nanus ui our ueu Ilepublican- evernment, - and defend our invaluable rights, and liberties from encroachment ? , Shun all men who use .underhanded means to obtain yoursup portiut vo(e for the man who has uniformly acted the part which yon a p prove, and xyho declares unequivocally his determination to support yourfights to the utmost of his power. It ought to be recollected, that at the peit 'session of our Legislature, a Senator for Congress will be elected, and it is of great importance, that a ju dicious selection be made. . This will depend on the issue of the present e lection. , . .v,' . -. - - We give, belowt the Election "Return from Granville County.
