We'hiive been very much gratified at the spirit ofgood humor in which the po litical discussions have been carried in this city. since the "enthusiastn" coinmenced, an'd we didt eterrain the hope that it would continue to lirevail, hut we are afraid that the excitement is getting ill-natured. We have several timiesOn the hireet discussions, seen manifestirions of in'gry feelings;i his can do no good; harsh language never makes converts. Tha subject under dis cussion is one of greAt importance to the country, and all ar interested in a correct decision. 'Calm a'nd deliberate discussion and investigation, mny elicit truth, but violent feelings, positive asserion, terms (if reproach du(l recrimination cannot neither ean the offering and taking of bets; these orly generate bitter personal feeling. 'We-soitgest. t herefore, that onr citizens ca1 neetings and -enter into regular dis Cuss4ioiis, %td when they make charges. produce their document-; let them appeal to facts and to reason, and let each man before lie asserts any thing as a fact, be himself -Aell srtisfied of its existence.

Then let us examine this matter coolly. There is plenty oftine heit een t his, an the election, to consider well the merits of both candidaies; to de. termine whether Van Buren is justly chtargeable vith sill the evil that hs u been auributed to him. and whether the fict, that a man living itt a log cabin and drinks hard cider, or that the string of his door latch is rrever pniled in, should he to a free and reflectirrg yo~ple, a good and stitlicieni reusoti why the destinvs of a great nation ,lsold tie p!aced inl his hands. So far its we tire concerned, there is no mn13s in the couttry who has not as tntehl interest in the result as ourselves. We eXpeci no office from either; and whether Vi Buren or Ha rrison shall be Presileit, we expect to publish out paper, and freely and without reserve, condemt what we think wrong, and approve what we think rig:ht. That Vat Buren has faults, atid some of them grievous ones, we are willing to admit; hta we have no security that Harrison would in any particular be heiser, and we think that we have abun lant reasAm n fear that in many things, he woul be intinitelv worse. Then we ay fi the peopl keel imuol & he sure that you are goig to better y'ourselves by an exchange, belbre you permiit yourselves to ie led awny by the cry of Log Cubin, and lard Cider.
