As said, this is an encouraging f-ign, for it is an evidence that the people arc doing a i?re'd deal of ? aim. quiet thinking on their own account. And it is h noted fact, that whenever the American people do this. whenever they seriously turn their attention 1<> public affairs ai d consider them without regard to the blow and bluster of j professional campaigners, in the Vernacular "there will he some j thing doing."
