The labors of harvest will lien be nearly completed; the evenings vil 1 be of sufficient length to admit ofcontinued meetngs; and the election being but twelve weeks istant irom that period, whatsoever is to be one should be done with promptitude and vigor. It is belieyed ihat the following simple plan of ssociatcd actton, if faithfully carried out, wül aceomplish wondera. ].
