The knowing ones, among otir opponents, say
that they are going to gull tho Loco Focos.—
They expcctto get their Votes by having infect-
ed them with the Anti-Bank mania, and at the
same time are endeavoring to curry favor with
those who think more banking capital necessa-
ry, by promising to use their best excrtionsto
satisfy them. “ We are the follows to get Bank
Charters”—tltey tell those who are huugering
and tliirsting after bank stock and batik accom-
modations. “Send -us to the Legislature, and
we can get a charter for yott. life can manage the
thing. \Ve must have more banking capital in
this state, but it will not do talk openly about it
till after election." \Vhen they have the genu-
ine Anli-monopolistsio deal with, they sing a
different tune. “ Oh! the rascally \Vhigsl—
Down with ‘ tlze ll'lOl'lSlCl'S.' ” Next Monday
we shall know how many gulls are caught.
The tories all over the state are in an awful
“ panic”—-they feel that their political temple,
reared upon " the spoils,” istottering to its base,
and they tremble at its threatened rtiin. They
are bawling out mosl- lusiily for oltl Fairlicld
County to come to the rescue; but her eyes are
open, and she sees the danger of attctiipting to
prop a falling lionse. New desertions from
their ranks are daily occm-rin_i_:, an-'l iiitcsiine (ll-
visions at head qnai-ters;“give signs of woe-
that all is lost." A letter from l-lartford says.
“the tories here give it up on Ellswortlt, and
offer to bat largely on his election."

FAIRFIELD CO_UN'l.‘Y.
This old republican county will have n glori-
ous chance a week from next Monday to redeem
the tarnished honor oflicr nzni'ir~. Site has now
every motive for exertion. as the tlcstitzics ofthe
State for four or six years may bit in her hands.
She has always, utitil the two last state clot.-tiotis
hccn a republican county, and was one of the
first to throw off the shackles ofarislocracy and
resist arbitrary power. After the revolution, the
toriol of those days were iiercrallowcd to return
to their homes, and in modern times, whoti
aroused, she has given the hardest blows that
have ever fallen on the tories of the present day.
lf she will but revive her ancient spirit and do
her tltity now, _tlie supporters of arbitrary power
will have but one county in the state that they
can call their own. The coming contest will
decide whether the wliig or tory PRINCIPLES
sltflll prcdon‘iinate—but the torios say the ques-
tioti is whether democratic or federal MEN shall
triumph. VVell——place it upon the latter ground
then. and you must support your old llcmocratic
friend lSA_A (SS for Lieutenant Governor in pre-
ference to tho old turn-coat federalist S'l'OD-
DA.l.{D-for t‘.-Ir. Stoddard. like htindretls ofthe
tory doinocrats, clung to the ft.d«_~r.'il party as
long as it had the power to give tltc-m an ollice.
Look, too, at your Congress ticket. Wliit.-li is

nothing against Mr. \Vliittlescv on account of his
ft'*.tle‘:lllt!lll,f()l‘ he has alwaysbccn consistent a‘. out
it. and although he has gum,-“down to toryism, he
has done so undisguisedly, and he has as much
rigltt to do so as the frcernen have to withhold
from him their support. \Ve say then that if
the present were a mere contest for men-for the
snccess of a democrat instead ofa federal candi-
date, they cannot hesitate to vote for Gtmzort
'l‘oivtLt.~soN instead ofT. T. W'hitilesey, and
for l3i:N.rAMtN lsAAcs instead of Ebenezer Stod-
dard-- Messrs. Tomlinson and Isatics being their
own county men and well known to them. But
the contest is not in relation to things that are
p.'zst—-—ii is wholly in reference to things present
and thing to come. We scorn to lead men against
5/ul(l()tt'8, when all our strength and energies are
required to combat anti overcome ti fearful and
desolaiing substance ? The question is, shall
the. people and their Representatives in Congress
be allowed to continue to express their opinions
in reference to the men and measures of the
government without having them ezpunged I-
or in other words, shall so plain a provision of
our national constitution as that which requires
“ each house. of Congress to keep ajournal of its
proceedings” be disregarded anti that. Jourrial be
" c;rpiuig'ctl I” Shall our State Constitulivn
which was framed for the protection ofa minori-
ty, against the oppression of a n'i-.ijority, be so al-
torcd as to make it as useless as the old C/iarter
of King C'I2arlc.9? Under that charter our
Judges were annually dependent upon party,
and the torics now propose to alter the constitu-
tion, so as to be able to appoint the Judges “ or
a. term not C.':.‘CCCtlll?g_fi‘l.‘C _t/cars,” v.-hit-h means
annually, forone year does not exceed five years.
Shall the money arising from the sales of the
public lands belonging to Connecticut, be given
.to the state or left in the hands of the adinir:is-
iencc of some fifty or sixty banks? Shall the
‘powers of the states, and the different branches
,of the federal government he kept separate and
‘distinct, and act as checks anti balances upon
‘each other, in the manner provided by the con-
istitution and explained by Madison, or shall all
lthcse powers down to those ofa Justice of the
Peace be merged in one great head, and that
liead possess entire 'cont.rol of the public rove-
nues and appointments to office? These are
among the questions to be decided by the Repub-
licans of Fairfield County. Will they then
stiffer the ghost of old federalism to stand be-
tween them and their interests?‘ Let us hear
their answer in tones of thunder on the first Mon-
day in April--no-—No-NO!

the meeting ; another i-rovision requires that it

more insidious, and therefore the more danger-

Van Bnren is detcrmitierl to purchase the
new states by a sacrifice of all the n_ow,. ls-r--ls.

people, btit profers'that the money should re-
main in his banks, for private uses. .
His friend Cambrcleag never introduced his
report for the abolition ofthe Tariff Comprom-
ise, to satisfy the South, without orders froiu
head quarters.
All our delegation in the last Congress have
shown by their votes (which count six) that
they are ready to sacrifice the interests of the
state to the dominant party, and the people are
now aware ofit.

For the Gatette.
The nomination ofGlDEON TOMLINSON
for Congress, appears to give general satisfac-
tion. I was last spring, one of those who tlio’t
it impolitic _to take Mn. To.iiLiNson from the
Senate, when he was so useful as cliiiirtrian of
the Committe on Pensions, and ruti liitn as Gov-
ernor. Now however, the case is altered. I-lis
torm of service in the Senate having expired,‘
and for the next two years his experience in pub-
lic allairs eminently qualify him to represent this
County in Congress. To the ]7cn.siorL interest of
this County, it is but justice to keep him in
VVashington. He has been an cssciitial friend
to that ‘interest, he understands all its dctails, and
were he to be left at home at this time, would be
seriously missed. It is no disparagetncni to his
competitor to say that if his ability Oi‘, his busi-
ness luzbils. were equal to those of M r. ’l‘oMr.t:~t-
son, the latter would be infinitely his superior
in qualifications, from greater e:-zpericnce and
more extensive lttiowlctlgo ofthe public men and
measures ofthe country.
We are aware that it is objected with some
spcciousncss to MR. ToitrLti\'soN, that he has re-
coivcd largely of the public favor. lfany one
ofa ntimbcr of the men in this cotinty, who are
his equals or superiors in faithftilncss, lione.-rty,
and capability, would consent to serve the poti-
lic in Congress, or were in nomination, tlto objec-
tion would liavc some weight. But it is other-
wise. Those who would represent us equally
well, or better, decline the service ; and the ob-
jection wliich is urged is in fact zi recommenda-
tion. ltis therefore Gitlcon Toinlinsoii capable,
honest, faithful, and experienced, against Tlios.
T. 'Wliittlescy, oflcss capability, and little or no
experieiicc.
There is however. a more serious objection to
Mr. \Vliitilcsey. He voted at the last session of
Congress. to retain the surplus revenue in the
Pet Banks, iitsteatl of distributing it to the peo-
ple. Icannot. forgive that vote. It is not re-
coricilable with political lioncsty or faitlifulitess.
and so the public will judge.
