Ed. Hesald : In last week's issue of tiie Democrat we notice some malicious corres pondent makes charges against 8. U. Trent, which, in the interest of truth, we feel im peHed deny as grossly and absurdly false. e i,aro listened to a number of the speeches made by Mr. Trent, and he always piainiy ad emphatically stated that the Judge, f the Courts drew their salaries from the gtate Treasury, and, therefore, to the;r compensation it could make not farthine of difference to the tax-payers of Somerset county where the Judge resides. An Republicans who heard him will bear witness tn this Mr. Trent never used the argument they allege he did, but Judge Hall, that egotiati cal ingratc, in his desire to disrupt the rty that made and enriched him, in his confi dential letter to Bedford county Republi cans used the same argument which the Deinocraft correspondent charges Mr. Trent as using. "He (uassna) is mixed In all the law business of this (Bedford) county, and has strong friends and hitter enemies. It would be hard for such a man to make a fair Judge, and it would impute great erpeme m the Uu-payert to get other Judge to hold Cbiirtn." Is this ignorance or knavery on the part of his honor T Or as a tax-payer of Bedford county does he want to shin the costs of holding t heir extra Courts on to Die tax-payers of Somerset county.

The Demo- crats attend the Wolfe meetings in force, do most of the bellowing, and then retire to a corner groggery and take a drink. They seem to have forgotten that they have a reg ular ticket in the field. It is haying a good effect, and if my eyes don't deceive me, No ble will be left way in the rear when the votes are counted on the night of November 8th. Clear-headed Democrats see this and are trying to stem the tide in everyway, but they seem to have been sold out in the Independent movement of Wolfe, An old own candidate, when they had some chance of success, they were wasting their powder on Wolfe and ruining themselves. For once in my life I agreed with the democratic allegation aforesaid.
