nation's shall maintain their rights, and until (for they are determined to) go a little further, conformably to the dictation of the mighty directors of the peasant presses. We like this, and will gladly fight them upon this ground.

We insist, however, as a preliminary, that they shall not hoist the flag- it belongs not to them; one of our forces may be deceived by false appearances. Let them show their true colors, the black cockade of federalism.

noticed going there since, in the Tolls, an article in reference to Judge Carttown, in which the editor had put the cart before the horse, by calling Wheeler instead of Wheeler Martin, occasion to correct the misnomer. To the respectable gentleman of the Advocate, as he knows us not, and lest he might misconstrue us, we think proper to say, we were not actuated by such motives as have been ascribed to us by our neighbor here. In correcting his mistake of the name of Mr. Martin we did not think it necessary to give the prefix "Honorable," although by the rule of "once a Captain always a Captain" he certainly is thereto indubitably entitled, he having formerly held the offices of Chief Justice in our Common Pleas, and an Associate Justice in our Supreme Court. We despise titles--and so will Judge Martin if he be the "plain unpretending Republican," he has been styled by our cotemporary--and consider them but little better than nick-names. Whoever has taken the trouble to read our paragraphs, will find we have always avoided the use of titles, where it could be done with propriety. We have paid thus much on an unimportant matter, (as our motives have been unjustly impugned,) lest we might be considered malicious, where we are not so well known and understood.
