[Columbus: 1848]. 6, [2 blanks] pp. Caption title [as issued], disbound. Scattered foxing. Good+.

Ohio's Whig State Central Committee seeks to galvanize its lethargic troops for the upcoming presidential election. Zachary Taylor is, as one of his letters printed here assures, "A WHIG AND SHALL EVER BE DEVOTED IN INDIVIDUAL OPINION TO THE PRINCIPLES OF THAT PARTY." A "decided" Whig, he is "not ultra."
