we understood front him afterwards that ;

.As to Mr. Hancock, we know thatilTh re-1
_publican story is false, for we saw one of i
his Union Republican neighbors, who
talked with him on the day atter . the Re

-supporter of the Union ticket ;we there-1
fore pronounce the entire - allegation of the
party organ, a wicked falsehood,desigued
to deceive the people.. If any signer - of
the call, has or does back out, we hope he
will scud us his reasons for so doin7, and
ire will cheerfully print them. We hold
that every mover in the matter who was
• •
.present and acquiesced in the proceedings;
iiiboundin honor to stand by it, and that
they will all do so. The organ impligns.l
the metives - of those who-sustain ;the Un
ion ticket; but whatkver the motive Of I
any individual may I.IF, we know that the 1
movement was. irotten up, and will be
supported in good- flail!, to aceomplish,
just what appears on its . fi; ee—t he sus

less prejudices from the peoples' minds- 7
and ribitirti loyal men in a common effort
to sustain the government.
. a The l silly Idea of Mr. Grow 'that
the call of his - party for is con ventiim, was '
a Union call, is too nbsoid to :he enter
tained. The call was gotton_ up exelns-
Ivey by the party committee, and was
headed,."REPUBLICAN County Con
tenfion," end read thus; "The Repulilicun
electors of the county" are requested in
the usual way to get up a convention. It
afterwards states that all voters, no Mat- .
terwhatl party they have "heretofore" be:
longed to, can take part if they are.. war
men, and will sop - port the ticket heartily
—thus giving all a fair chance to join the
for party, it must be noted that the "Re
publiCan electors" are-to get up a ',lto;
publican convention ;" and iiirwhere was
- -it even hinted thatit u-as to be a 'Union'
• affair, at all. Next follow town com
mittees—all Republican Party then, and
they never dreamed that
; it was aught
but a party affair, for they put- up their
lawn notices in usual form, Of.which we
