At the same .meeting in which
_the aboite
resolution was passed, S. B. Wilion Rig.; of
this place made a speech. In that address he
told his bearers that he had not read the Ar
gus durine,the last campaign, - (?) (he is repoit
ed to have told thirtto every
he has addressed for the last twelveyears)
but was informed that we had libeled Hugh

lion thus far. If Mr. W. will' kindly bold MS
aversion to reading the Argwrin::abeyance for
a moment or, two we will tell him exactly
what the Argus did not, and what tt did charge
Mr. Anderson with during the last campaign ;
It did not tell the voters of the county that Mr
, Anderson had stolen a 'coat from a "certain
fishing party near Beaver Point.' .It did not
insist that a lot of "spOons belonging to anotit
ei man had been taken frAm his pocket while
1 Veing ejected from the owner's premises." It' .
I did not insinuate that he had stolen a pocket-1
book belonging to a, man that was - hurt by a,
passing train of cars. It did not charge him!
wit h having"olisce'nely torturel a Finlllboy,"
I - nor with being a bar 7 room loafer, and a com
mon
drunkard. It did not 'claim that he bad
I embeziled - pablic funds confided to , : his caret
nor did it accuse him of haiiing •Swindled the
I State or of hiving made a fortune out of the
necessities and wants of its soldiers. •
But. the Argus did say that he was permit .
ting his Szlrl, who was living with him at the
',time, to.insult the loyal people of the county
1 b2,*; proposing t sell them a disloyil book. It
Idid Ray in answer to an appeal made in his
, behalf for votes on the ground of his charita
ble disposition, that, he had treated a distitute- I
women and her cluftlien in PhilliPsburg with I
1 more severity' than a 'true christien spirit
would warrant. , It did arty in answer to a sim
-,
liar appeal'for votes for hini, that he had not
i managed his private a ff airs successfully, and
that this circumstance should weigh . heavily
lagainst selecting him as thefreceiving and - dis-
bursin,g officer of the County. ; ,'
This is the sum total of the Arguis charges
i against Mr. Anderson. If that gentleman be
i lievas that a judicial inveetigatien of these
, chargesfwill put him in amore enviable light
than he is now in ; or if it will soothe the sav
age breasts ofJlemrs.Wilsnn and Kuhn to con
duct a. prosecution for libel against us, it only
remains; for us to say : Go ahead gentleman
and "stand not upon the order of your going,
but go at once." '' s - • , •

When Mr. Jefferson bought of France for
$15,000,000 . the vast region then ktown as
Louisiana—a mighty empire of the Most fer
tile land under the sun—he 'frankly avowed
that lie had no authority for so doing—that
he had utterly transcended - his constitutional,
power. He declared that Congress migh.dis
avow his act, and,leave him to brave, the
consequences. IHe held that the Constitu- /
tion should be amended in order to legaltie
his purchase Which must otherwise remain ftj

Div DEAR Sm—l received ye r note yes

proposition is dernnisly pressed by

visiondisfninchised no one; -it ' seettre.- the
-ballot to all who possessed it, and applied the
eddeattonal test only , to thou who cable of

If a proposition is to te put in yoUr constitil

only to those - nho Mile of age at that date, '
are naturalized; &lake up their' residence in
your State, it would be' in accordance with
the oft quoted previsiori in the constitution of;
Massachusetts. Stiehl provision might be I
an incentive to youngtnen of both racesto ,
better qualify themselves to the exercise of
the elective franchise. Btit to takefrom tens
of thousands of colored men to whoa 'educa
tion haa.been denied, and to whom suffrage
has been given, a right so essentialito the se
curity of their lives, liberty and property;
and to disfranchise thousands of poor white
men wh . l have never" enjoyed the' ririceless;
blessip t , 0. botiminn . sehoots, Would be a. great;
wrong a measure utterly indefensible.—
Poor laboring men, °more than any other .1
elks, need the ballot for their security. Tg- i
norance; ifit be-loyal, liberty-hiving and

is safer than intelligence that is unpatriotic,
unjust and selaili. NI poor man hi the ;

to he a duty of patriotism, huraanitf, and 1
' Chiistianity to lift up the poor; secure 'the i

,The-force of the time of public opinion, and

"to protect all persons and . property; to, 'sup- -

to punish, or, cause to be punished all- dis

To accomplish this purpose, and to [reor
ganize these two States as loyal to the govern

I had a • small military form and the
auiliosity vested in me by the law. I finny
oucha close examination of the existing civil
,
governments ofthose two States, that nearly.
levery civil fimetionarY, from " the - Governor
down, had been soldiers Or aide's and abet

cases they had been elected slit confederate
grounds, and solely for serried rendered in
their attempts to destroy the General,Govern

for 'votes. I found, also, that they were near-. I
