Oun Srr.N.u'ott.—The Hon. Joshua B. Ferris
iebefore the freemen of the 12th District as a
candidate for the Senatejof this State. This
gentleman hardly needsa word ofcommendation
from us. for he is too well known, and his worth
too justly appreciated by those whose interests
be has heretofore faithfully represented and ably
advocated. The reputation acquired "by Mr
Ferris, in the Senate at the last session of the
legislature, entitles him to the confidence, and
we doubt not.will secure for ltim the cheerful
and hearty support of a large majority of the
electors of the district. Apart from that atlable
and gentlemauly department which always
procured him a ready passport to the favor and
friendship ‘of the people. he has evinced the
quailities of an efiicient legislator—honesty of
purpose -respectability of talent-.—soundness of
judgment-—babits of industry—and a persever-
ance that looks steadily to the accomplishment
_of its object. These are the qualities which
the people want in their public servants, and
they are those, too. which as united in Mr Fer-
ris, will not be confidediiu in vain by the free-
.men ofthis district. I"
The competitor of Mr Ferris. is one of his
own townsmen--a Mr .Wm. Welles Holly. a
gentleman. whatever his qualifications may be.
unknown to the voters of the district, and of
course having no hold upon their confidence.
That he is unknown in the district may easily
be ascertained by asking the question, as we
have done-—Who is lVillt'am. Welles Holly?
Though we have dilligently sought to know
some thing of the man. echo has been the only
respondent to our numerous inquiries. To whom
then, freernen ofthe ever-conquering 12th, will
you entrust your interests? To the tnan whom
you have tried and found faithful-the man with
whom you are acquainted in the public and
private walks oflife—possessing yourconfidence
--identified with you in interest and feeling-
.ora man, of whom you know comparatively
“nothing. or whose name perhaps you have never
before heard. and for atrght you know to the
-contrary. governed by principles and interest
-totally diverse from your own—-radical and dis-
tructive-—'and more than probable an ultra
supporter of that policy which has for several
years past ground ma'ny ofyou in the dust. and
by depriving you of employment and the re-
wards of ‘honest industry, left your families. in
some instances perhaps. without the necessaries
of life. We trust you will not be long in coming
to a choice. Let the ballot box on Monday next
report your decision.

Mom-:s'r \Vott't'n !--The following paragraph
was cut from an article in the 'last Bridgeport
Farmer, purporting to be a communication, at:
published over the signiture of “ W**"****.”
We have copied it verbatim (merely giving
emphasis by italicisiog some of its more strik-
ing portions,) for the purpose of removing any
deception it may have lead to. by placing it
over its proper signature. Had we the space we
should have given the article entire.nol. so much
for the purpose of exposing the trickery. as
for the beauty ofitsdiction. This would enable
the voters of the 4th District to judge in some
measure ofthe qualities ofa man who has been,
(whether serirously or not) brought before the
public as o soup-_tpv1a _/Eu Qoufixoss .' ! .'
On looking over your last paper, though
I could not but commend your delicacy. yet‘
I regreted that no paragraph noticed. the
nomination of your Mr. Pomeroy for the rep-
resentative of our district in the next Con-
gress. ‘Will you allow a friend to say. that
the convention in selecting a mechanic for
.this appointment, have fixed upon a gentle-
man belonging to the laboring classes, intitn-
ately acquainted with the politics of the
of much tact in debate. of sottnd
democratic principles. and too high moral
qualities to be swerved from i'ectit~u.de of ac-
tion _for mere party purposes, or to descend
to misrepresenta.lions and falsehoods to de-
lude the public mind, and to bring odittm
upon the party in power. Your Mr. Pome-
rov will come into the contest with the dis-
advantage of not being personaly known to
a large portion of the freemen of the district.

The Eastern Argus Revived speaks thus
of Hat'rison’s Address—“ It is a document,
we are sure, which will be more and more I
admired at every new reading. We invite
our old republican comrads, of late estranged
from us. to read it carefully—an'alyze it with
candor—and then ask their hearts if they
can longer blame us for supporting a man
for the Presidency, who supports such prin-
ciples as are there set forth? If not, join us
in doing him justice.” '
The Best Jo/re Yet.‘-—Mr. Van Buren in
his speech at Tammany H-a.ll last evening,
tendered thanks to the virtuous and industri-
ous yeomanry "by whom.” he said. “ I have
been intrepidly sustained in the hour of difii-
culty."
Certainly, Mr. Van Buren. you were
“ intrepidly sustained” by the glorious eight
district. and by the population of the pro-
lific at well tilled soil of the whole of West-
ern New York. The honest farmers of
Ohio. of Indiana. of Michigan. of Tennes-
see. of Keln.tu.c/c_r/, of the grain growing dis- -
tricts of Massachusetts and Main "sustained”
you gallantry l Of all the tmpudcnt. bore-
faced humbugs that ever tnan asserted in the
, face of an intelligent community, this declar-
ation of Mr. Van Buren that he has been
supported by the yeomanry of the country.
is the most audacious.
Capt. Heaviside had brought a suit in the
Consistory Court for a divorce from his wife.
and the divorce had been granted. This
will be interesting information to the -Rev.

The following article was prepared for on-
last number. but for reasons. then deemed sulfi-
cien. it was wit-hlteld. In, the meantime we
published the adrlrr-ss of Capt. Hancox to the
"Inhabitants of Fairfield County." Tbe’com-
munity. having now pretty generally come to
the conclusion that we had arrived ,at when the
article was written. We have therefore. thought
it advisable to give it a place.
We would here remark that the committee
are taking tueasures to bring about a fulfillment
ofour prediction. in reference to another boat.
We shall not however claim the spirit of proph-
ecy on that account. should they succeed. for
we consider it too plain a case to require much
ofthe exercise ofthe power of prescience.
Outt S'rr:.utao.t'rs.-—Our relief from the op
pression of the old line of Steam boats, has
proved of rather short duration—-Capt. ‘Han-
cox havingwitbdrawn the Napoleon from the
route andleft us again to the tender mercies of
those who‘ have been georgiug themselves on
the substance of this community till they ‘have
grown fat tr. kicked,” and become calous to eve-
ry consideration of generous reciprocity. This
result has taken place in accordance with the
expressed fears ofsotne of our citizens, but per-
haps a little earlier than it was supposed Capt.
Hancox could forget his assurances to this peo-
ple. We have been fairly gilted amidst all our
warm, determined. and practical evidences to
support the Napoleon. and exposed to the
mirth of our enemies. This is a matter of deep
regret, but as the old saw runs, “Let them
laugh who win.” Our oppressors may smile
over our apparent defeat. yet we have the con-
solation.that though they are again in undisputed
possession of the route, it will take about all
they wring from this good people for the next
three months to balance the sum for which
this possession was purchased. Besides this
draw back‘ to ‘their triumph” it has. without
doubt. occurred to these sapient Steamboat
Companies. as well as to us. that that potent in-
fluence which induced the Napoleon to haul off,
when reduced to something betterthan "red
dag bills." will in itselfbe a sufiicient induce-
ment for some other idle boat also to trythe ef-
fect of negotiation. The inhabitants ofthis vi-
cinity are in no mood to “return. like a dog to
his vomit.” and trteekly ask the Captains of
the old line, to receive them back into favor
‘with the understanding that their pockets may
again be at their disposal! There are those
too (ifmarlame rumor does not deal in idle gos.
sip.) who can see as far into a millstone as the
tniller himself, who have had an eye on this
route-who have watched the whole progress
of this affair. who are willing. with out much
t. 1 ling, to avail themselves of the unanimous
and determined hostility of our inhabitants to
the companies now holding the route. in turn-
ing it to their advantage by giving us a boat
suited to our wants. and faithful to our interests.
The committee to whom this busioes, has been
entrusted, are neither so slow in their precep-
tions or so wanting in energy, as to let this mat-
ter stop here. The same spirit which brought
to our ‘ ‘relic;/".thebriefservices of t_he Napoleon.
the same wounded spirit. which has at length
risen in its might in vindication of its rights. still
prevails in the community. and we do not ha-
zard much. with our limited prophetic vision.
in stating. that by the time the business season
commences. the present companies will find
themselves ina worse dilemman than that in
which the Napoleon placed them. i-
