nately, & furnish their COMMUNICATIONS


by Monday noon orcach week.


6. Any alteration oflhesc terms shal


be made public.


Z. This proposition shall be accept
cd within two weeks, or considered as
declined


8. The decision TO be made at the


ballot boxes.


The wings have been charged with
concealing their principles and opinions
The charge is unfounded and made for
effect. Whig principles have always
been undisguised, fully understood by
our opponents, and ever, as now, embla-
zoned on our banners. Individually.
and with undoubting confidence that we
are right, we are ready to do humble
battle FOR them. Those who claim pat
riotism profess to seek the welfare OF
the whole country. But the different
roads Travelled by the two great parties
olthe country, lead in such directly OPP
Poslte courses that one or the other must
inevitably fail Of conducting US 10 the
desired boon. Does it not become US.
now we are together, to compare noies,
look to the best guides, open the under
standing to the lessons Of experience;
and though we have thousand times
sworn that our road was the right one.
surrender our pride of opinion, and
wheel about in the opposite direction 10
that which we have been travelling, if.
upon investigation, we find we have
been wrong? An honest man will fol-
low where truth leads him, though it
should lead him TO The devil. We seek
a friendly contest, and would not if we
could, glory in triumph achieved by
the weapons Of sophistry and popular
delusion; and we shall feel prouder
i(evcr we should submit as a victim 10
Truth, than we ever
could in the possession, self convicted, Of
the laurelS Of It's most honored victor.
We have made a proposition which we
think fair. lfit is not, let the terms be
made so. fthe field of discussion is
too narrow, let il be widened; if too wide
let it be narrowed. If our democratic
friends have the confidence in their
principles which they daily assert, and
wish to carry the election by appeals to
the reason, and not TO the passions or
predjudices OF voters, they have Il fair
opportunity TO advocate their cause in a
fair way. lftheJ will not do so, the
conclusion is irresistible that they lack
the necessary ammunition, or want
confidence in their nerves and guns
They express astonishment that the
wings should be SO blind as 10 oppose
their democratic light, which plays,
they assert, like sun beam on the tenn
pie Of liberty. If this is so, any one
Of their number will be able 10 meet us
and bear off the prize Of triumph.


There is the glove. Who will take
tup?
