~ whig convention more properly
speaking, casEas-which nominated Mr..
Lowe, We discover That about forty political
missionaries, more than ono half of whom
ere lawyers, have been appointed to pa
troa sas Territory, and enligh,ca the peo-
ple-ths "ignorant rabbi" e"-as to who they
SHOULD support for Delegate to Congress.
Mr.. Lowe. although attempts have been
made to pass him OF as farmer, is law
yer, accustomed to puLic speaking, and,
We have heard it in,imated, relies chiefly
for success on his assumed superiority. in
this respect over Gen. Dodge. We had
supposed, therefore, that he would have
been adjudged competent to the proper con-
ducting Of the canvass himself, but it seems
not. Aids have been assigned him, to act,
Il is presumed, under his orders. The SER
o'ces Of the entire ,chig portion Of the bar Of
tie 1aritoyy are to be brough, into requi-
si,ion in behalf of one Of their brethren of
tho ',grecn bag" and some forty federal
leaders and aspiran,s are to be set loose
upon the people to deceive, en,rap and
humhug them.


Gould higher compliments be possibly
paid TO the democratic nominee than is con-
vsyed in this move on tho part of his OPP
ponsrts? We think not. The wings are
are sensible of the held Gen: Dodge has
upon the affections Of the people, and they
sfterly despair of defeating him in fair,
open. manly contest. They saw him NOM
mated unanimously, and by acclamation, in
the largest convention which ever assem-
bed an the Territory, without particle Of
effort on his part, and despite their own
efsrts TO impair public confidence in him.
Notwithstanding, therefore, that they have

and Of whose sratorical powers they mako

Our opponents seem determined not to
learn wisdom from experience. The ex-
psrisncs of the last election, when they
met with Waterloo defeat, appears to be
entirely lost upon them. They ought tc
