OUR TlCI{E'1‘.—-\Ve this week throw our
-bunting to the breeze, and place at our mast
head the colors under which we have resolved
to do battle ourself. antl endeavor to rally our
friends during the approaching campai,-_:rn. Our
adhesion to the above ticket, is not, (loco focu-
ilike) given in as a matter of_ course. or under
the thong and spurof party discipline. \Ve have
adopted it under an independent and bones‘
conviction ofthe substantial worth of the indiv-
iduals who compose i'.—from a conviction of
their decided superiority, individually and col-
lecti_vely,over either of the several ticket now
before llr-‘. people. So believing. there is but
one course left us. \Ve are. therefore impelled
as well by ntoral obligation as considerations of
political preferences. to use every honorable
means to secure their success.
Oflhe gentleman who stand as the alpha and
omega of this ticket, we need say but little.
‘.Ve allude to Messrs Ellworlh ar.d Kilbourn.
who now fill the offices of Governor aml Con-
troller. Tltey have filled their respective offices
with faithfulness, and discharged the trusts
confitlt-d in thetn witlt satisfaction to their cott-
stituents and credit to themselves. They have‘
therefore been retained trpon the state ticket, and
will no doubt receive, as they tlcsctvo, the cott-
tinuetl support ofthe whiz: electors of the state.
For the other gentlemen, whose ttarncs
appear for the first time, we hespeak a favorable
consideration. The first of the threeis a citizen
ofour own county, well known to our readers
for his talents. liberality, affable manners, and
ardent attachment and fidelity to the principles
which distinguish the great whig party. These
remarks also apply with nearly equal proprriety
and force to the candidate for Secretary. He
deserves well of his country for his active and
energetic exertions in her heltalf. Unlike the
gentleman whose place lie is to occupy, he is an
up and down. uncontautinated \l.’hig. No ltcrcsy
or guile—-no truckling an-l fawning to this one,
and then to that, mark his character. Can as
much he said of His I’okesltip——Mr. Hinmau '3
The cantlirlate for Treasurer, Jeremiah
Brown, Esq. has for a long time been connected
with the treasury office, and performed a con-
siderable portion of its duties. He is every
way qualified for the station for which he is
nominated.
Altogether, llte ticket presented by the \Vhig
State Convention, is, in our ltttmltlejurlgtnent,
the best that cottld have been gselected, and
worthy of the combined sirenglh ofthe freemcn
ofConnecticut.
Let those who deplore the condition to which
the country has been retlueetl by long‘ years of
loco foco misrttlc——thcse vclto desire to heal the
unfortunate divisions, and reconcile the jarring
interest which have sprung up under the admin-
istration of our unscrupttlous and selfish oppo
nents-—those who would check the irrsolettcc
and tyranny of wealth and station which have
been fostered to such an extent under past atl-
minislralions——lhose who would maiiorate the
condition and lighten the burdens ofthe humble
but worthy poor, and hasten the return ofthose
times when man sympalhised with his fellow,
when pcculalion and Atlantic steamers were
unknown, and Texas had not become a
by-word--in a word, let all who love their
country and seek its greatest good, rally under
this standard, attd throw their support for the
ticket which we this week prcsenttoour readers.

an girl of 12. years ofage,iiving in the family

abduction was for purposes of prostitution. The

brought back to this place. The points in the

that the Tobacco Mannfactory near the resi-

into the hands of Messrs. Quigley and Clark.
iThese gentlemen are taking a course that will.

for public favor entirely on the tnerits of their

is such that there is little doubt of their success-

F.woRt'rEts:tr.—A general complaint is heard
throughout the State at the palpable tlisregartl
of the claims ofiprrtpriely andjuslice, by Judge
Judson ofthe District Court, in selecting as the
only Journal forpublishing notices 0fapplica-
tions in Bankruptcy, the Hartford Patriot &-.Ea-

but a single paper for the Slate. and that too of
a very limit circulation. by which the cretlitors
of the applicant have not the opportunity ofbe-
cotning acquainted with the fact ofthe applica-
tion. This com-,tlaint is well grounded, for
