Republican Herald

"A Jackson paper in this town has also put down Rhode-Island as a Jackson State, that has come over to his cause, since the Presidential election. The editor knows better: but thinks there is nothing lost by claiming." Journal of Monday last.

Did not the Journal put the election last Spring upon the ground of administration and anti-administration--did they not tell the people if they voted for James Fenner and the ticket of Senators, headed by Nathan Brown, that they would declare themselves in favor of the "profligate administration of Jackson"-- and did not the people, maugre the terrible denunciations of the Journal, elect the said James Fenner for their Governor, by above a thousand majority, together with the gentlemen named in the ticket with him? These things are all true-and "the editor knows better" than to deny a single word of what we have stated. But if this valiant editor is not satisfied, and will patiently wait until the next spring, he shall have another trial of his strength, when if we don't beat him to his heart's content, we will give up all pretensions to a knowledge of the political character of this state.
