He had some indistinct idea that it was proper to

to i'exas, and her suppurl of iho Roman Catholic
lldigion. He In ft the principles ot the parly nit the
subject of the turitTttnfaiic&ei/. nnd gave us but one
idea on the subject : that thu reason why u farmer
had no money ill his pocket, after paying his ex
ponses, iVc., was owing to the Whig turitTof 164‘d.
He said that the farming interest »tts so prostrated
that corn und barley could not tie sold at six cents
a bushel ! ! ! Wonder if lie has any nt that pi ice
for sale? and that it was easier to make n dollar in
1832. than a reren pence now.
M;Stkfhkns followed Mr. Baxter. He remark
ed that his friend Baxter was all absorbed in Tex
as ; ho supposed the two leagues ot land owned by
hnn in tltni country was a subject of deep excite
ment and interest. He then went into an elaborate
argument on the Toritf, nnd oilier subjects,
and i never listened to one nr,re able, con
vincing and eloquent in my iil’e. It was received
with many and long continued shouts of applause.

and it was. in fact, one of his master efforts. It

Col. Johnson rose in repiv. He answered not

reply to Mr. Poe. 1 uesday came, and our candi
date in terms of thrilling eloquence portrayed the
ruinous and destructive policy of the Democracy.
He took hold on the fattier of all humbugs the
Texas Treaty—and knocked it into the middle ol
next week. That great " national question" is laid
on the shelf—it is as dead as a smoked herring.
Stark replied, and although he is a sensible
speaker arid a clever fellow, yet all admit that he
was not Himself on that occasion. His remarks
"ere confined principally to the Texas humbug.
All passed off pleasantly and most gloriously for the
Whig enuse.
In conclusion, the work goes bravely on ; the

previous time; and if every District in the State

Deak Snt—1 learned from a friend a few dip!
past, who fives out West, that a rumor hadgorvI
out there t-hat Old Hancock was counted for thyl
Democracy. Relieving that the Democr)!) mibl
it o ruie to claim parts of toe State remote fro* I
litem, thinking thereby lo influence some tv job I
their ranks; and as Old Hancock is my own, my I
nat!ve county—aud wishing tiiat site mav not bs I
placed in company w here site does not bi long, i wilt I
try to give you a correct statement of the parties!
here. I have taken some trouble to ascertain wi* I
have been the changes In a,d Hancock, add ti* I
result is. that two, w hs were VV lags last year nil
voted for Crawford, wiil this year vote for Ur. J
Po.k. and not one more that I can find out. 0# I
the other hand, I can count TEN who voted !w |
year for Major Cooper, w ho will now voleforMt.
C.nv.
The Democmrs and Whigs of the county aiede-1
ing a., that they can. The Whigs are in fi«dI
spirits, and 1 think I car, promise for tiiemtxfcfl
Old Hancock, a majority of 160 to 290 next N#r|
