The Detroit Frce Press is crowinglustily about a suppasedarnalcamauon of the Whigs and Libcriy men of the Sccond Congressional District. Vv'e cannot believe therc is any round for ifs pretended fears. The great mass of the Liberty party have not thcslighiest disposition lo forsnke théir own ticket for the sake of cíccting a pros'.avery Wltig lo Congres. Cerlainiy, if they were susceptible of lemptation, Mr. Gordon is not the man whon they would reasonably support. Ile would %'üte for Ctay again or for some orher Whig Slaveholüer. sbould the President Ijc elecied by the House. We would remind those Jvberty men o." tliat District whom our paper may rwcli before elcction, that while it is barely possib'c Gordon nJgbt'bc elected by receiving the tbhofc Liberiy vote of ihe District, yet as lic wü! receive.at nist. Iiut a very few of thosc votes, bis o! chüii is nol nt u'l probable : and therefore eveiy Liberty man who votes for bini will truly throw awatj his vjtc - by withdrawin'g it from the support of tla Liberty jarty. bestowing it for levatítíó oí a proïhirrrij cnndidiiteand partj'. nrid btastojng it? too. whcre it vvill not even hc-lp eiect arjy body ! Surelv, no conaidcnible nuraber of Liberty men wíl! bt; foclish enough to dó iliis. Wc beüeve the who!e qucsiioning process in tiiat pistrïct was a devicc got up solely lo makc a little antiylavcry capital for Gordon.- Nobody wíl I be nkca irt-wiih it, ailhough it may serve as a sliinsy pretext to cover the defeciion oi a few persons who wnn'.ed some ostensible ahadow oí" a reason for voting the Whig ticket.
