worthy OF any but 1riy,lhn dotards Who cor.
PLAINS that Mel Oh poured Jackson votes into ABB
marie or Albcm6rle into Buclsins CHAM 7 Or Chr
lotie into Campbell No one. Does the mfu fact
then of IA voter rcsidin. in city render the txe

be made the subject OF unccasine newsrapet VI
tuperaIlon If Mr. Richie could have mustered lOO
Jackson mcn in Richmond ,en,itl,d 10 vote in Che,
terhed, would he not so far from 0b.cng to bct |
exercising the right of suffrage, have uged th(m |

ny II. Is 1t not, then tho very refinement OF hyf
octical cant, to complain Of it, simply because
majority was against him2 lie must have a ,sty
contemplate opinion of the understandings Of as
cohnt'y fe"de'S, TO suppose that such comIa'''
can excite any other feeling than commissioning

purpose which prompts them.
