FOR THE 1rrcHrlELp ENQUIRER.
FOR THE LITcHFlELD ENQUIRER.

 As the Election draws nearer and nearer, the prob- able result of it is becoming every day inicrest ing. Although we cannot bring ourselves to believe ha, in ths District the electors will be regardless of their duty and fathess to their trust, yet we would urge them to vigilance and activity. We are con. tending with cunning and subtle adversary, and we shall not feel satisfied to beat him by inconsdera ble majority. It is hoped that Jacksonism will be put down by such decisive vote that it will never gain push forward its preensons in our District Au. gustus Pettibone is whom all parties have hl, delighted to honor, and it is believed that the electors of the several towns this District and espe- ciay of his native town, will show the good people of this State that lie retains undimnised their coni- dence and respect This District is the residence of several of the most prominent Jackson men in this county and knowing their own unpopuarity and odi- with the people, they have put forward Ma thaniel Perry, hoping to deceive by ign of the man, and of his principles, and thus induce us to support him. The trick will not take, gentlemen. We shall vote for man whom we knop and who wil, ably and faithfully represent the true sentiments of large proportion of the District, and whatever may be your hopes of practising upon deception, shall elect Judge Pet,bons by an overwhelming majority.
