chance to elect Batson and Goodrich, and he knew
they were two as worthy men as the county af-
forded.


The Locos, he knew, were trying TO injure
Goodrich by saying that he was the partner the
notorious Sheldon Woster, and left here TO wind
up all The rascalites Of that firm. Woster, you
know, was the foulest man this county ever knew.
They say that Goodrich is as bad as Woster; but
hat its not the case, and if he were, that argues
nothing, SO he is a good Clay man, and of that
there is no doubt, and the strongest man in the
State on the Tariff, Pike excepted. Notwith-
standing all the objections to him, we intend to
run him on account Of his reasoning facultes;
he cannot make the people believe black horse

iact and still he voted for all of Archy's meas
ures; they say these measures must have been
right, OR Davy would have put them down. You
know Bob, Davy is smart, or he never could have

wings can get here. Our meeting will be after
the fashion of your Clay Club, we have written
to the "Great Emporium at Little Rock, to send
US one Of his "Hotch-potch'' constitutions, with
all the signers, and then we can organizs.

secret. AS soon as our meeting is over will
give you the particulars. :;
