" am happy to inform you that all is right here
There viii be no split among the democrats, (markl
iD-they go "tooth and loe nail" for the nominee
few may stand off for a while, but when Ihpy
see the iHtrigues going on they will rally OH the
nominee. The Tooie men are SO few here that
they may be counted.


Itis believed here that the object of the whgs is
to keep Tooe in the field as long as nossibe-so as
to carry off enough democrats 70 beat CIark-then
they will bring out candidate and vote for him
unanimously. Look out for some trickn Of This
sort. The coons are up 10 any thing. Ipray that
old Edgecombe nay keep her eyes open. Our only
salvation from defeat is 10 go for the nominee"
