Charley S. Wolf, of Lewiabunr, was at
the republican atate convention, at liar
riaburg last week, and made a speech in
which he said, "I am here aa a rebuke
to the Camurona." Bully for you Charles
—but suppose Simon and hia Hon won't
be rebuked, what then?
Down in Kentucky, in Henry coun-
Ir, last week, the people treated four
men to Lynch law. The fellows were
taken out of jail at night, aud hung.
Three were brothers. For the last 1?
years they were pert of a band of ban
ditU, who shot, stole and burned with
out fear. Some of their comrades were
lynched some time before.
Mr. A. K. Cornell is the repnblican
naval officer at New York. atwPnn infiu
ential repnblican leader, and Chairman
of the republican state committee. Ac
cording to Hayes' recent order, being a
federal office holder. Mr. Cornell can
not longer take a hand in managing poli
tics, and must either resign the naval
Office or the chairmanship. But Cornel!
swears he'll do neither, and defies the
President, and has gone on and issued s
call for the meeting of the state conven
tion. Cornell# rebellion is attracting
large attention, and the cabinet has had
his oontnmacions conduct under conaid
eration. Cornell, if removed by the
fraudulent President, will submit his
case to the senate, and cxpecta that body
will not sanction Haves' new civil ser
vice rules, and that it will not confirm
the appointment of another. Well, lets
aee who'll win ia thia family quarrel.
By a collision on the At. A Gr. Wes
tern railroad, ou 5, 1000 barrels of oil
and a locomotive were destroyed by
fire.
Dan Hastings was on the committee on
resolutions in the rad state convention,
last week. If tbey sour on any ones
stomach, Dan did it, of course.
There seems to be no doubt now that
Otman Pasha the Turkish General, is
Gen. R. Clay Crawford, an American
who sertred in the confederate army.
Gea. Reynolds ia authority for this,
he has corresponded with him since the
war and in 1573 had a letter from him
stating that he was in the service of the
Egyptian government and waa called
Osman Bey. He heard of him subse
quently as being ia the Turkish ser
vice under the title of Osman Pasha.
The democrats carried California, last
week, and have a majority in both
houses which will elect e United States
senator in place of Sorgeant, radical.
PaMmore the Cameron nominee for
auditor general ia known to many in
Centre connty, as a Life Insurance tramp
—who, like the other common tramp,
went from house to bouso to pester peo
ple to have their lives insured, and at
one time took much pains to explain to
us "lbs plan" of his company. Every
body will understand what the "plan"
of the Camerom clan ia without much ex
planation from Pass more.
Thisrs U dead. France mourns the
decease of her greatest scholar, historian
and statesman. The Republic looses its
mightiest leader. Thiers was the terror
of the monarchists, and the maintaar of
the Republic. At SO years of ago he was
vigorous, dear-sighted, watchful, as
though in the noon-day of life. The
enemies of a republic in France found in
Mr. Thiers the great obstacle to the es
tablishment of an empire, and in his
death they behold a mighty obstacle out
of their way, and intrigue and plotting
may again triumph in the downfall of
the Republic with the assistance of the
seemingly untrue MacMahon, now presi
dent of the Republic, who is ruled by hie
wife, and she desires the empire rees
tablished.
The death of Thiers is a heavy lose to
the republicans of France. They may
carry tha October elections still, bnt
with Thiers alive, there would have
been no doubt. Every citiien of tbe
United States aympathisee with hie re
publican bretheren in France over the
lose of their powerful leader.
Ail friends of the French republic are
apprehensive of a plot to establish a
monarchy, and Franeo may wake up
some morning and find tho republic
turned ont of doors and soma sprig of
defunct royalty upon tha throne. Tha
Tribune aays private letters from Peris
report thst the situation there is grow
ing as exciting and full of suspense as
the third act of a melodrama. Jacques
and his confreres are said to congregate
sboat the wineshope of St Antoine, and
indnlge in fierce talk while Madame De
farge, back of tba counter with a flower
in her hair, knits hard and scowls with
darker meaning than in tha days of
Jonea the locknsaker. It is reported in
these council chambers that the Prince
Imperial is to marry tha Marshal's
daughter as soon as b# is seated on tbe
throne, as the price of MtcMahon's
treachery to the Republic. Madame
MacMahon ia also believed to hold all
tha atringa which movs tbe larger pup
pets, and hence that plump, well-preaer
ved old lady, who drives comfortably
about with a poodle in her arms, is
doomed by the people to a worse fall
than Marie Antoinette, if Jacques
should ever get into power again. Mean
time, the Marshal has crowded every
alleyway with soldiers, the police force
are doubled within tbe last ihree weeks,
and all go about armed to the toeth. Aa
half tbe soldiers in Paris two monthsago
had wivaa and sweethearts in tha quar
ter of St. Antoine, city-born men have
been ordered to the provinces, and the
forces now guarding the metropolis are
all from the country. They are a lean,
hungry, spiritless set of men, but will
probably prove more effective tools
should the Mtrabal find that the result
of the elections calls for a coup d'etat on
his part. Persona are even to be found
who prophesy that this coup d'etat is
certain and will be successful, end thst
tbe Exposition will be opened next
Summer by the Empress and her son in
stead of the Msrsbsl and bis comforta
ble wife. Baseless as most of these ru
mors undoubtedly are, they gire evi
dence of a feverish, excited condition of
tbe public mind, which mast continue
■stil the October elections restore confi
dence—or destroy it.
The Democrats in different sections are

RA I) SI A TE COEVEttTION.
In the rad state convention, Mr. Hunu
a delegate from Philadelphia, eent a reso
lution to the chair, which was not read
but the gist of which was that the con
vention commend the christian charac
ter of Mr. Hayes exhibited in his every
day life, and propose as appropriate to
bo sung at the White House every even
ing (belittle hymn beginning, "When 1
can read my title clear,"
The Philadelphia bovs sat in a close
circle, embracing McManua, Leeds, Ash,
McOullough, lhinn, Albright, I\>ugla*s
and others, and they made the hall
musical with hilarious and Irreverent
speeches about President llayes' title to
hie office.
Judge Stencil of Allegheny was
nominated by aeclama
tion.
On the nominations for auditor gener
al, Mr. Wolfe, of I'nion, endorsed
Boeder's nomination in a violent speech
againet Mackev ar.d others who used
their influence for Paasmore. He daitn
ed that it waa not a fight between Pass*
more and Keeder. but the people against
the treasury ring He declared that
Mackev'• conduct has been perfidious.
His remarks created a great senaation,
and he was alternately hissed and ap
plauded.
He spoke for more than half an hour
in denunciation of the unworthy means
used to defeat Keeder. Ue warned the
convention that if they nominated Hart
and Paasmore there was great danger tf
the defeat of the republican party.
A. Wilson Norrie late private secreta
ry to Gov. Harirauft, said it pained liim
to denounce friends of long years, but
three months ago he went to the men
now opposing Keeder and they promised
to eitheraupport him or remain neulral,
and he now impeached them for their
diaboneatv. He charged them with mak
ing war against Har'.ranft because they
could not control hia appointments, lie
appealed to the young Republicans to
aland by Hertranft-
A decided sensation followed litis pub
lic defiant declaration of war by Hart
ranft againat Cameron, aa all at once re
garded Norrie us the oracle of the Gov
ernor. When be declared with violent
emphasis that he uttered the truth be
fore God when he said that the blowa
apparently aimed at Fell and Keeder
were intended as deathly atabe at Hart*
ran ft. lie said that be could no longer
be silent, that the issue had come and
must be met. and he closed with the un
qualified notice that revolution and dis
aster were at hand unless the tameron
dog# of war should be called otT at
once.
W. B. Hart was nominated for atate
treasurer.
The convention then proceeded to the
first ballot for auditor general, which re
sulted lu 165 votes for John A. M. l'sss*
more and 62 votes for Howard J. Keed
er.
The ticket was the one fixed on by
Cameron, who had control of the con
vention.
Hon. W. H. Armstrong, of Williams
port, was chairman.
At last boea Tweed is temporarily oat
of jail. The aldermanic committee on
the investigation of ring frauds met on
6. ffo. M. Tweed was present with hia
counsel and gave a history of the vari
ous offices he held under the city. He
testified to a ring that was formed in the
board of supervisors for passing exces
sive bills in IS6O. The ring consisted of
Koach, Briggs and himself. In 1863
Henry Smith was added to it, in 16tk
John Fox, and in 1866 James Hayes,
sad in 1667 Isaac J. Oliver and Andrew
J. Biakely were added, but the last two
did not know all that waa going on, but
they got their rake. In IS7O the board
of supervisors was abolished. The
Tweed ring had nothing to do with the
supervisors ring, the format was under
Hoffman's administration as mayor, and
was composed of witness, John T. lloff
man, Comptroller Brsnnan and Street
Commissioner Cornell. They mat only
for secret and political purposes. Some
of these men went out of office and this
ring then became composed of A. Oakey ,
Hall, Comptroller Connelly, Street Com- J
missioner M'Lean and himself.
Paaamore, with whom Mackey beat
Hart ran ft and Reedor, is probably the
greatest blatherskite in Pennsylvania,
lie is a lift insurance agent, and first
cousin to the lightning rod man and
aewing machine pirate.
Correct—ao aaya the Pittsburg Post.
The Pope's health is not improved.
His limbs are partially paralyzed.
A democratic legislature in California,
and a democratic U. S. Senator gained in
consequence, was well enough for last
week.
Schors denies the charge that ha ap
pointed a Tilden man to office—Mr.
Finley, to a position in the Interior
Dept. While the appointment of a Til
den man might be a credit to tbe ad
ministration, it would certainly be a dis
credit to any democrat to be connected
with a fraudulent administration.
California baa 38 democratic majority
in tbe legislature on joint ballot Steal
ing tbe presidency had a bad effect in
the golden state. Judge Black in hia
closing speech to the Electoral Commis
sion spoke thus:
"Justice travels with a leaden heel
bat strikes with an iron hand. Wait till
thetlood gate ia lifted, and a full head
of water cornea rushing on. Wait and
you will see fine grinding then."
Hayes has wilted on the Cornell busi
ness. The cabinet had tbe case up again
on Friday 7, and it waa resolved to let
Cornell alone until after congress meets.
A bold soger boy ia Hayes, to b# snub
bed in his sivil service order by a subor
dinate.
J. C. C. Wbaley.of the CI. Itemocrat,
is the member of the Dem. State Central
Committee, from this senatorial district.
A good and fitting selection.
Judge Smith of New Orleans has recent
ly delivered an extra-judicial, but seem
ingty righteous decision. James C'azentre
who has a wife and several children,
courted Maggie Horn's younger sistor, as
suming tbe name of Joe Wagner, and rep
resenting himself as a single man. When
the older shier heard that ha was a mar
ried man, and was going about among bis
friends boasting of his new conquest, the
lay in wait for him, threw lima or Hour in
bis face, and then knocked him down.
The gay deceiver applied for an order of
arrest, but the Judge discharged the as
sailant with these words/ "You hsve
done just what you should do As furtbis
man, I have seen much of human nature,
but never in my life have I seen so muuh
meanness in so little ofGod's make. There
is a man who assumes a name and repre
sents himself as a single man, to mnke love
to an unprotected young lady, and when
her sister discovers that he ia a fraud, the
punishes him herself because she has no
one to do it for her. lie has the impudence
to call in a Court of justice and sk for

permit me to punish liirn a* he ought to
be. If you had beat him more severely,
he would have got just what be deserved.

succeeded in reaching it.
From the Mills, or, more properly,
Duncan, Its official name, wo start for a
ride of three miles along Penn'a Creek,
aa it winds through meadows of green
est grass or creeps darkly beneath the

our road croa<es hill after hill with ev

the mouth of our cave, a deep hollow in

Following a winding path and long
flights of steps, we find ourselves amid

the awful gloom before us, the deep,
dark water on which we are to float

journey before us, make a sober par') of
us. Not even the sight of our stout

comfortable seats, ita rows of candles

reaseure us. and we draw all our wraps

Almost too fast we drift forward, and

to the right and left, the huge Gloved
hand reaches down after us from above,
' and the Ghosts of the Cavern stand mo

through the Hall of Snow Drifts the
chimes peal suddenly forth, and ere
their clear tones have ceased ringing
through the aisles the low. deep boom of

WILL HAYES- POLICY DIVIDE
THE SOUUEIiS DEMOCRACYt
WELLS AND ANDERSON BOOKKI> FOR THE
PENITENTIARY.
[Correspondence Cincinnati Commer
cial.]
It is supposed that what has been de
nominated as "Haves' policy" in the
South will have the effect to divide the
Democratic party in the South. I had a
long conversation with Lieutenant Gov
ernerWiltz, of Louisiana, in regard to
that Governor Wiltx seemed amused at
the idea of Hayea' policy or any other
policy dividing the Democracy of the
South. He said that if Haves was to
run again to-morrow for President, he
might get a few Democratic votes in
Louisiana, but not enough to nuke any
perceptible effect on the result. "We
are," said Governor Wilts:, "very much
pleased with the manner in which Mr.
Hayes has acted. We now have juat
what w# wanted, local self-government.
The Democratic party will present a
solid front hereafter, and*of course we
will have a solid South. Why shouldn't
we? Our interests all prompt it; and
more than that, the colored voters will
help us hereafter, and in a abort time,
we will be stronger and richer than ever
we were before. I have always been in
favor of utilizing the colored voters by
taking them by the hand and swinging
theni into the line, but I cannot get our
fellowa to do it. It WHS distasteful to
them, but they are coming round all
right.
"Our cotton crops are splendid ; our
sugar crops were never better. We are
getting rich again, and we shall soon he
more powerful than ever, and you men
of the North will want to disfranchise
the darkey as a measure of self-defence.
We want men to come down and bring
capital and help us to build up ourcotiii
try—help to develop it."
I said the trouble seems to he that a
man must agree with you politically or
remain silent, if he coinos among you, or
else he will be ostracized and treated
with insult. "Oh, no sir," chimed in 1
the Governor, "not unless he wsnts to 1
rule our people, sir. Of course if he 1
comes down there snd wants to rule j
over us, we would resent it. But a Re
publican can vote just as he pleases;but
if lie is quiet, and bears himself proper- !
)y, he can get along as well ns a Demo
crat, and he respected."
"Then you feel certain that the Demo- ,
cralic party is getting stronger in the i
South ?" "Oh yes, there is no doubt .
about that. T|ie Democracy will control 1
in the South hereafter. They would '
have controlled long ago but for the
presence of Federal bayonets. You see i
aa soon as the troops were withdrawn, )l
the Packard Government disappeared. f

A special dispatch from Paris to The

PKN.VA DKM PLATFORM.
FIRST— That the induction of Rutherford
B lisvct into the offlc" of
• notwithstanding the election of ."'iiiiuel J.
' Tilden thereto, wa a high crime against
trse government, which bus not been n
--{dorcd and will not be forg '.ten The
I same spirit of patriotism which forbore a
j contest upon the first offense will resist
1 and punish any attempt at a second,
SCCOKD— That the immediate happy ef
-5 feet of the application by the Federal ad*
! ministration of the Democratic policy of
non-intervention in internal afl'airs of
. Southern State* amply vindicate* our fre
i quent pretests against previous violation
! of the rserved right ef tho several Stales
to exercise all povrsr not delegated t# tb*
j tsc-neral Gorernmsnt by express constitu
tional provision.
THIRD— That the purpose to icfurtn the
Civil Service, wh-ch has been proclaimed
by the present Administration, is, like ill
Southern policy, a confession of tb* fail*
ure of Radicalism and a just tribute to the
Democracy, which has long anJ earnestly
demanded the overthrow and punishment
, of alt cotiupt official*.
FOCRTH— That capita! combined in cor
| porate orgr.nixation hu been too highly
i tavored by both Federal and State legis
lation, and iu demand* for large returns
are inconsistent with tha depressed condi
tion of laboring and business interests of the
country. We oppose ibtthcr enactments
for iu special benefit alike expense of oth
er interests. Labor and capital should
have no causo lor antagonism, and they
should he left free to adjust iU own rela
tions. The right to contract freely exists
for both parties.
Firrn—That we accept the admonition
of Jackson in saying that standing armies
are dangerous to free governments in
time of peace : "I shell nog seek to en
large our present establishment nor disre
gard tha salutary lesson ot political expe
rianco which teaches that the military
should be bald subordinate to civil power."
Accordingly the increase ot the Federal
army and any attempt to employ it as a
partisan agent of Federal authority, or for
interference with the sovereign rigbu of
Stales, will receive cenlinued earnest op
position of the Democracy of Penniylva
oia.
That the deprivation of employment cf
many thousand* of industrious citizen*
and laborers, and the deep distress of
themselves and families enlist our hearty
sympathy, and wedcclare in the language
of Thomas Jefferson, tho founder of our
party, that "A wise and frugal Govern
ment, which shall restrain men from Injur
ing ono another, and shall leave them oih
wise free to emulate their own pursuits of
industry and improvement, and shall not
take from the mouth of labor the bread it
has earned," is the hope of people in ad*
versity and their security in prosperity,
and that under such a government which
it is the mission of the Democracy to
maintain and perpetuate, any resort to
force or to violation of law or invasion of
right* of pctsgn or of property to redress
grievance, is needless and at war with tho

Sixrii-That many of our rich man
have not bron content with e<|ual produc
tion and equal benefit*, but bare besought
u* to make them rich by act* of Congress,
and by attempting to gratify their deire*
we have, in of our legislation,
arrayed section againit section, interest
against interest, and man against man in
fearful commotion, and therefore the
grant by the legislatures of State* or by
Congress of executive privileges, and the
establishment <d odious monopolies, under
pretext of public benefit, or of justice to
certain section* of the country, aro a di
rect assault upon tbe equal rights of th*
people, and as these monopolies have been
c<ntriv'd to enrich the few, whilst a large
number of people aro reduced to want.
The Democracy of Pennsylvania protests
against subsidies, land grants, loans of the
public credit, and appropriations of ih• J
people's money to any corporation as le
galised plunder of the tax-paying indus
tries of the country.
SKVKNTII -That we look with alarm
and apprehension upon the pretensions of
the great transportation companies to be
above the fundamental luiv of this Com
monwealth, which governs nil olso within
our borders, and until thoy accept the
Constitution of 1873 in good fnith, tlicjr
should remain objects of tiio utmost vigi
lance and jealousy by both Iho Legislature
and tbe people.
Itmofved, That we hereby re affirm and
adopt the financial resolutions of the
National Democratic platform, adopted at

Details of the Conflict—-Great Valor ,
Displayed by (lit Combatant*. !,

Newt's pce.ial loltgram, dated i'oicJui,
August SI, contain* tho following ''Os*ii
man I'n-lia * attai k on thn ftuudsii poll*'
tlunsal I'slisat and vicinity, w one of
the most hardly fought battles <>( the war,!
The Turk* early in the fight captured j
a Kottian redoubt one mile in front of
I'cluat 1 n y.e courts of one hour thia rc
doubt wa taken try the Tuik, retaken
by the Ku*ians, and taken again by tba
Turks The Ituaalan 101 l wing wee driven
heck on I'eliaal in front of which trenches
had been dug and were lined With troop*,
the Turka advuncid aa though determin
ed to drive our left out of IViiaaland turn
it.
The Tuika began to dctceud the hill in
that direction, not with a rueh, bulLittus
ly, and without thing- not in uiatte* or
line*, but scattered and diffused. They
caiuo down übout bait way iu ibis manner,
the Ituaalan artillery tearing up the groupa
all tho tlu.e in the tuort aaragc manner.
The Kuaaian infantry fire which had foi'
the laat five minutca been very heavy
about Zgalcuco new began to roll along
'. Villi!-! ruat in our direction and l'..e,Turks
who Wiiii juncoining into range brgeu to
dti p rapidly.
The Turkish advance now Tier d to the
left and wnii at the ltuai an lunches on
tha creet of the hill* between IVlisal and
Zgali'uce With a ahout, opening fire at the
same time. The Turka descended into
hltto hollow and were lost to aighl for a
time, while ti c Russian trencLc* fiaun Ji
and auiuked, and a storm of ball* was
ponied into the advening Turk*. This
muat have lasted fitleaii or taenly lUIUUtcs
during which lima tearful lot* of life must
have occurred.
Than we tuw the Turk* begin to with
draw, carrying otf their wounded. The
Turka no to> her withdrew from tie Kua
;ian fire, than they formed end advanced
i.g.iin. Muny dvau bodie* of Turka wcie
found v. .thin leu feel oi the ltuaaian lunch
es. The liltla slope on the crest of wbicli
the trenche* were situated, wat literally
covered with drad 1 Counted aevin on a
space of not more than ten feel square.
The battle hare was terrible, but the Turka
I were again repulsed. It will hardly be
Relieved that they weal at it again, and
| yet they did so. It seemed madness, he
I I >us* the Kuaaian fire never elackened en
instant and that the iCutsian line never
wavered, while reserves were wailing be
hind ready to fall in at the least sign ol
wavering. Tui* scene of carnage was
again repeated but ouly lasted a moment.
Tbe Turk*, completely broken, with
drew. sullenly firing, and carrying ofTtheir
wounded and many of their dead. They
fell back on the redoubt which they had
first taken, apparently with the intention
of holding it, but they were not allowed to
rt-main there long. Another atUck os
the Kussian centre had beeu aa unsuccess
ful si that on the Kussian tu achat on the
! lad
The Russian* pursued the retreating
Turks with a murderous fire. Then sit
com panics went at them with the bayonet
and -wept ihcui out of tbe reJoubt like a
whirlwind.
At 4 o'clock the Turks ware in retreat
everywhere and lue Kussian* occupied
.the whole of their first positions betides
pursuing the Turks a short disUnoo with
Jcvalry. The Kus.-ian* were about 'A'.OiU
sliong. Their loss it estimated at 600 and
tho Turkish lea* at'.MtOO killed and wound

London, i>*pl. 6 —The Standard * liu
jjcbarest correspondent says tha battle of
Lovatx was commenced by the Turks, who
disquieted by the great increase of Kus
sian* before tho town, attacked them fierce
ly. Ths Russians repulsed n>ne success
ive assaults and finally drove them back
into the town, which they entered with
them. The struggle continued in the
• treet* until tie Turks were driven out
I from tbe other side of town in great dis
'order.
1 They retreated, followed by General
SkobelelTs cavalry brigade, which had,
by it* gallantry, largely contributed to
the Kussian success. The slaughter wat
great, especially among the Turks.
Uucbarctt, Septemberfi. —An important
engagement was fought near KusUhuck
yestrrday morning. S.sun afterward* the
HUM ~nt commenced a bombardtuanl of
that city from S'obosia, which tsv re plied
to by the Turk*. The cannonade lasted
all yesterday and conlinuod to-day. The
Turks from WiJdin attempted last night
ito reach C'hupercbim near Kalafalin boats
; but were driven back by a Roumanian
I battery which was quickly brough* up.
! The garrison of Widdin has been raised to
! the strength of £ DUO men in consequence
| of the threatened altitude of hervia.
London, Sept. C. A special edition of
the Standard has the following dispatch
from Constantinople .- Tbe Turkish
commander in iicrxegovima reports that
a band of 'd.UCO Montenegrin* surrounded
a village near l'reasika intending to gwt
cattle and corn. During tbe night a fresh
hand of Montenegrins arrived, whom the
first band supposed to ba Turka. A fierce
combat took place in which ill) wore kill

They were both wounded. The Russians,

Terrible Losses of the Turks at Los
vats.
Immediately after the redoubt was taken
tbe correspondent entered it. Tbe road
and adjacent plain were thickly dotted
with the dead and wounded- Up the slope
where the Kussians had charged the re
doubt I was surprised to find so fow
dead, the Turkish flro having principally
gone too high. Inside of tbe redoubt were
corpses of Turk* and Kussians thickly
strewing tho ground, but at tbe western
e nd, where the Turk* bad been jammed in
their efforts to escape a space of fifty feet
by twenty was covered with Turkish dead
anil wounded to the depth of five feet. The
living and dead were lying on each other
in a dense mas* steaming with heat and
blood. Around this Moslem pilo was a
fringe of d-ad Kussians, showing that
there had been a fearful struggle in this
fatal spaco. Kussians were standing upon
this mass of humanity. 1 watched them
working manfully to separate tho living
from the dead. In half an hour they had
made scarcely any impression on that fear

had retreated was strewn with Turks, with

amply quslifird. and I believe ttill is, t
make their own selections, a* to whom,
they will give their support, to be their j
servants, the bogus Mlllheim letter, the
President and Additional I*aw Judge* of,
ibis or any other Judicial District to the
contrary notwithstanding; what tha dem
ocracy want, is an honest, faithful man,
one whost record is above reproach, and
that will give strength to the party,'
and on# who has also been faithful withj
what bas been entrusted to him, either by
the public or private individuals, and any j
oae who ht failed in the*e cannot, and
should not ask the snppoit of fhe party
here, whether he bas sundry articles pub-,
lished, prevailed upon with difficulty, or
has tha solicitation of President and Addi
tional Law Judges, they will avail bim
nothing, tha pub .c knew who has been
taithful to tha trust, and will cast their
votes for none who they know to be dis
honest, and all such silly trash falls upon
'.hem like water upoc a duck's back, ar
every tub must stand upon iu own bottom,
and tbe letsofsuib articles published the
