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.

to facts and to reason, and let each man

There are but rew who have any real
interest in deeiting themselves or oshers
-with the exception of those who expect
sono imimediate profit or lionor to them
selves by the success of this or that candi

But few of t he rieuids of ehher, can hope
to obtaiti oflice by thie 1io Cessof his favor
ite, and those who do not, however clam
oris they tsiy have been, will participate
tno more or less in the good or evil of his
admnitiieriration, than those who have beeu
opposed io him. 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
