V_Vc gather froui some remarks ofa corres-
pondent of the Litchfield County Post that
Gov. Wolcort has consented to stand as :1
candidate for reelection. The writer says,
that. the Governor “ having been called to the
first station in the gift of the people of this
state without the remotest interference on his
part, has pursued, and will pursue. the same
line ofconduct with respect to contintiance
in ofiice.” However much we may regret
this deteriniiiation of the Governor, we shall
be the last to censure hiui for making it. The
people are capable of deciding for themselves
on-this question, and if they gliiiilt that he has
held the office long enough’ in be willing to
subscribe to the doctrine of rotation, or that
his advancement in life renders it desirable
and expedient that he should retire, they will
tell -him so at the polls. It is not surprising
. that he should, at his time of life, refuse to
3r
withdrawfrom so snug a birth as that of Gov-
ernor of the state, especially when it is known
that age irrcapacitates hitn frotn resorting‘ to
other avocations for a livelihood. Patriotism
only could influence him to take a step so det-
rimental to his personal interests, and this we
need not expect to operate whilst the conduct
of so large a pmportit-ii ofmaukind abundant-
ly manifests that this generous priiicipleis
now known to the world but by name. ].
L The advocates of County Conventions will
probably put Gov.Wolcott at the head of their
ticket, and thus give it an irnportance which
it could not rtherwise obtain. This course,
we have reason to believe, was decided upon
as soon as it was known that his name had
been left off the regular nomination, although
it was understood at the time, and stated we
believe before the meeting, that it was with
his approbation. Tlre, fricndsof the regular
ticket will see that there is a necessity,._for ex-
‘ ertion on their part, for they have to contest
the election with an enemy that neversleeps.
But while they are active,lei them be temper-
ate and prudent in their support ofthe cause,
and they need not fear the result. There is
nothing we should more regret than to see
our friends generally following the example
ofa writer who has lately appeared inone of
the papers of this county. Expressions so
severe and intenaperate as_he uses are unne-
cessary and unbecoming, and by appearing in
respectable papers receive a character Wl‘llt'll
otherwise they would not liave,8z. do immense
injury by leading many to the beliefthat they
‘are the sentiments of the party, which is so
fat from being the fact that we hesitate tint to
say that every member ofit would, if called
upon, tiiost readily disavow them.
flnolher Meeting qfRrpublican3.—-Tlie pa-
PETS 0‘ New London County contain thr-
proccodings ofa meeting held at Norwich on
the 1st inst. to promote the cause of District-
iog. Another meeting is to be held at the
Same Place on the 15th inst. to make out no-
minations. and adopt such nleasures as irray
be deemed expedient in regardto the niattm-.
In pltltllshiug these proceedings the editor of
tlwN~rwich Courier remarks that he was
Wlllllll’ ignorant cfthein until presented for
l-’“l37i‘~"3'l_0D. sever. days cg;5'ter., This mnst~hav=-
been a very Republican mer='iin9,- but it is
quite as much so as some others whi.--h have
been bcldfor the same purpose. The editor
ofthe Courier protests" against such under
handed proceedings. and says they were ,gnt
up by a “ young man from Smnington, who
came to town With both pockets full ofpreani
bles._aod resolutions, Stt_ilt=(‘l to the wants ofthe
various towns of the district, and not one to
fifty of the voters ofthat town knew that stint:
a thing was in existence. Now ifthese gen-
tlemen are really in earnest about giving the
people ‘heir rights why is so much secresy ob
served? * * * Taken altogether this is it
fairspeciuien of what we should have nndrr
that noble system which is proposed to give
the people greater privileges in the election
oftlreir rulers—tliis is the wav in which free-
men would be hawked about bv pr-ttv upstarts
-who are continually liairassing them with
projects for no other purpose than that of get-
ting into notice. lfa reform in otir elections
is resolved upon by the people, let it be effect
ed openly, and \\'itl\Otil -reference to the inter-
ests of ofiice s'eekers.”‘ -
We have often said, and again repeat it,
that Districting is not the object of those who
are so active in this c_o,uniy,_..in.getting tip a_
new nomination. lt was not; to dis’trict.i‘he
state that the late meeting;--was"-held at I-‘Ves’
ton,nor that a State Couventiomas it is called,
was recommended by that meeting to be held
at Middletown ; and those who take the lead
in this business know that this is. not the
object. If st, why did they nominate Gen.
Foote for Senator, who, says the Farmer. is
known to be indifferciit to it.and says he cares
nothing about it? Or why did they nominate
L,Mr.Fairchild for Congress where he can have
n§3\morc to do with it than ifhe were President
ol' the U. States? It is all a htiin hug and
people are convinced of it. There doubtless
are those lnlhls coun,ty,and many in the state
who feel desirous that the district system
slrould be adopted, but the ntirnher is growing
less and will continue to decrease so long as
it is used for the purpose of introducing con-
fusion 3:. discord in the ranks of Republicans.
FOR THE GAZETTE.
Mr. Printer——The political horizon ofthis
State seenis to be tumultuously agitated on
the subject of Districting. and of substituting
County for State Caucusses. The party now
in power is charged with “ inconsistency,” for
refusing to grant what they called for while
in the minority ; is there not the same “ in
consistency” in the present minority, whonuw
call for ll. and who once refused it ? Are the
persons who now demand it Republicans of
the old school, or are thev in reality disap-—
pointed Ofiice seekers, who have associated
themselves with the members and promoters
"of a celebrated Hartford Convention? Should
we be better acquainted with any persons resi-
ding in this county, after being districted than
we are now ? “ Bring the candidates home
~to the lillotvletlge of the people,” is reiterated.
The ostensible object oftlistricting is equality,
ut llie secret and hidden one is power. They
ve not told us that some districts will lie
eral,and of course. federal Senators will be
“en. - We must have county caucusses,
to noniiiiate state Senators and members
igress, and an additional town meeting

Wolllltl be folly :”-there is must sympathy ex

but‘*,ihe burden of military du y bears no pro

dierfis-an elector. but every ._elector is not :-

citizens are already disgusterl with the repeti
tioii of our town, electors, scbiety, and other
meetings, and would be more likely to suffer-
an invasion oftheir rights. tljau to take sucl»

person would be likely to atend these meet
ings. but some oflicious de iagogue and hi-
parasites. In represeiitativelor republican go-
vernnients, the ‘facilities of making officers
ought rather to be simple, than -coinplicated.
Supiueness and avarice have too sensible an
influence over many ofour citizens, to suffe.
them to spend much time lbr public conside-
ration. The electors inectlng. is the only one
.hat is generally attende ' and every one
kootvs this is through extreme exertion.—-
Whoever receives the suffrhge oftbis meeting
represents the majority to lhe Assembly, and
I do not see why the repijesentatives of this
county cannot nominate atltlie seat of govern-
ment, as well as at a Coiinty Caucus. Should
there he delegates appoipted to attend a couri-
ty caucus, they would probably be the same
men we ..end to the Assembly.
Some ofthe iiieasiiresof these politicians.
“ come in a questionable shape,” and I fear
they haveassuiiied the specious name of Re-
publican th better to deceive. There appears
to be a disp sition to anialgainate the politics
ofthe State, nd absorb them tiiore or less by
ecclesiastical istinctions. “There this is ef-
fected, party li s will be obliterated, and the
same men who llsrve. so long trampled on the
liberties oftheir llow citizens, will again
work themselves in power. Tlie Editors ot
a new paper at the -rst have assumed the
name. of republican. henix like it grew out
ofthe ashes of a federal . per. VVhetlier this
bird produces the same species, or not, I can
not determine‘, but we find lire particulars of
a county caucus in its célumits, and that Z.
Wildman and ‘E. Foote,l{re nominated for
Senators. Are both thes tiien republicans of
the old school ? Under re old dynasty, no
person having the least sylnptoms of Rt-pub

CASE or MORGAN.—The fate ofthis
man is still enveloped in the most profound
mystery, and the "excitement iccasionerl by
his abduction is rapidly iiicrezrsiiiv. The trial
ofthe four men at Cairiutzlaigua who were
rzoncerned in carrying hifu oil’, has thrown
but little lighten the subject, and nothing re-
ap-=r~:r;rg Pris fate after his a rival in the Vlcllllty

deepest hues of guilt from a conspiracy.-
With regard to Lt1wso(n,'tlie Judge reniarked
that it was proved helook an active part in
the afi'air—he took Mfrgan from jail upon
pretence ofpaying hi, debts, and deliveretl
him over to those whol,siourl waiting with a
carriage to receive liiiuland it was believed
accompanied him in t e carriage. His sen
tciice was two years i ,:i'risonment in the

tify to that point.
The inhabitants of Batavia. Bfilliafiyi and
Stafford have had a public tiieetiiigand re
solved,-—ihat the masonic system is highly
prejudicial to Society, and that‘ theybelieve
it to be their duty to withhold theirsupport at
elections from those who cotlDl<‘,lla“C9 the
outrage against Morgan. The inhabitants of
the town of Pembroke have 'resolved to dis
courage the circulation of every newspaper
the editor of which excludes any fact in rela-
tion to these “ unparalleled outrages.” The
inhabitants of Livingston County have raised
funds to aid in the discovery of Morgan and
in bringing those to punishment who carried
him oft‘, and resolved to petition for a law
fining the punishment of man-stealing. The
inhabitants of Seneca have published an ad
dress and resolutions, in which they complain
that a secret and invisible power has control-
led the courts ofjustice, and resolve that all
and the powerful one of-Free_*M"asons espe-
cially so; that they will notvvote for Free-
masons ; that the sentence a-,gainst,those who
carried off Morgan is an intftilt to the people;
that -the silence of public journals is alarming,
and that they will take no newspaper which
does not publish all the facts in the case.
‘second convention was held at Lewiston a
few days since to discover if possible the late
of Morgan, and the Buffalo Patriot says sufl‘i-
cient evidence was collected to satisfy the
convention that after Morgan had been kept
a few dliys at Fort Niagara,he was deliberately
put to death .’! This statement is confirmed
by a letter from Genessee to a Senator at Al-
bany, in which it is stated as report that Mor-
gan was carried intoCanadaby»t'hree persons
whose nauies are too respectable to hazard
withorit strong proof; that applicatioii was
tirade to Brandt, an Indian Chief, and a Ma-
son, to have Morgaii carried to'the N. West

British service were then. r-equested to take
him down the St.Lawrence,but they declined.
tie was then bound, confined in the Court,
tried, and sentenced to death. Before day he
was informed of his late, when -he pleaded
for a light, a bible, and an hour’s delay. The
report then goes on to state that they cut his
throtft, and threw his body into the river ;--
and it is added that one of the gentlemen im
plicated has since given tokens ofiusanity.
This story is rcbutted by the stazeinent of a
British officer from Upper Canada who has
uonversed with Brandi, who told lr-‘am he ltnew
notlimg of the .il't'air.. He also says that en-
trance could not have been obtained at Fort
George, for the purpose. of enacting that or
any other tragedy. The editor ofthe Spen-
iator lion ever rt.-marks that there is a coinci
deuce between this story and evidence given
on thctrizrl by Mr. llrrll, who testiftetl that
Clrr-scbro said ll'IU|';_{,Hll ty.{.r~.~s where , ;‘/lillr-.r

’l‘here seems to-'ue.t3o doubt ofthe fact that
Mirrgtiii was traced to the l)'.lt'-_~p’,.:;3_ ground be-
tween Yoiiirgstoii and Fort Niagara, the car

A most distressiiig accident occurred in
Sliaron, Ohio, about the 5th of January,
w hich we are requested to mention for the iii-
toimation of friends. A party of men had
collected together on what is ‘called a chop-
ping frolic, a practice which is too firqiieiitiir
-that country, and liaving got several trees
rcatly to fall, three o! the number, .who had
stepped aside and ‘watching their own tree,
were struck down by another tree which fell
in a rrontrary direction from,uhat was ex»
pected, and two of them kiiled, the other se-
vrerely bruised. One was observed to 7'.>reatlic
but once ;the other survived near three hours.
They were both young men ofuiuch prourisc.
exemplary in their coriduc_t, and respected for
their talents, and their loss is most deeply de-
plored by all who knew them. The iiaine of
one was John. M’Lauglilin; of the other
Williaiii. Cantwell.
