It is therefore hoped and expected the friends at the ssvernl pointa ndicated, wil] makc ril ] the nfcpssary preparations ; and if it berome nrces.snry to aller the hour of mee'ing, wil! nform me as enrly as prac ticable. The day cannot be nlterel. C. GURNEY. Oy"Ve nre obliged to mail this num! er of tho paper one day ,i!pr than usunl in conseqticnre oftlie lincss of our work men, every l.and in ihe office having been sick reerntly. Q5 A writer in llie De'riit Advertiser, ovor the s'gmture of " Micl.inn," filis a column nnd a half in laboring to prove t lint the Deinrcils are proslavery, and tho Whigs are so l"nr antislnvery ihat it will do for Liberty mrn to vo'e ; for them. The writer tells us, in ubj sl;ince that he has verted tho Liberty ticket sinee 183'?, nnd tlmt llie Whigs ure so farnb 'litionizpd thal it w II be " s;ife" for the Liberty party to eüvbtmd thfir organization, and joSn them! What rens'n he lias for congratulnting himsclfon tha nntisïavery progresa ofihe Wliigs, miv beseen trom the single fact ihnt the Whig pnpnr wbich publishes liis artiole, and the leading paper in the Siae, is an ndvocatf of llie worst kind of n slnveholder fjr the Presidency! Yet he scmhs entirelv blind to this most palpable refutatiou jol" his state:npnts, and gravely mforms ! the public that " no Liberty man will ever unless he prevés recreant to principie, vote for a Slavpliolder, or an abettor of Slavery for any office," wliile ho yet advi.-eí them to voie for the VVhig party! 'Michigan' will find, pmctically, 'hat if ho no longer vots wiili the Libprly paity, rmd yet v,te for no SUveholder or abcttor of Slavery in the VV ïig party, that he will stand a great chance at oresent Dol to vote at nll. Vherecan he find a distirtgiiished Wliig in Michigan that is not an abeitor of Siavery as it is - that is ao open advocate of the exeicise by the Wh'g party ofnl] constitutional powers f ir its overthrow? Where stand the enndidntes f ir Governor on ibis question - Woodbridg, Edtnunds, J. M. Howard, H. W. Taylor, &c? If "Michigan" cannot find a single prominent Whig in the State who hns taken thi ground, he may judge for himself liow 'safe" it will be to vote for t!ie Whigs because they ure an antislavery pnriy. - The Advertiser is sensible of the prodigious untrnth asserted by its corre[on. dent; for it publishes the article without venturing to interpose a word in it favor. 05a" VVe are a are of the great anxiety rwisting throiigh the country lo hear tha news from the Mexican war. We have given all we can find of any interest. - Tho report of Gon. Scott's entrance into Mexico, which we pulilished last week, is not confirmed. Adv ices fourteen days later leive him still at Puebla, getling ready to ad vanee. 0? The article on the first pnge on . the manufacture of s'arch, was writlen Trom Almont, Lapeer County, by a corrtspon ont of the Detroit Fee Press, and should be credited to that paper. It contains facts of interest to the farmer.
