For the Phoenix.
The "Tory Lawyers at their old Tricks.


Mr.. Edtor-The political game of ''the To
ry Lawyers" is opened this year with BRAG.
Two or three weeks ago they boosted in their
little Democrat of their great gain in this
County, and pretended that the Van Buren,
party had realized an annual net gain for sew
eral years past.
And in the last weeks Democrat, after vent
ing their spite and spleen upon the Wings in
sundry abusive epithets, they closed off by say
ing 'the Wings must be logged" IL these
political Jockeys expect 10 frghten the Wings
or make political capital out Of such system
of braging and gasconading, they will discover
their error on or before the first Tuesday of
September next.
Every body remembers the mighty buster
these Van Buren, Lawyers made in lS36-the
inlrigues and receptions they praclised-the
braging, bullying, bargaining course they pur-
sued, by which they sought TO recruit the ranks
of their party. The game was then as now,
brag. The Wings were TO be soundly hogged
the County was TO be carried and The State
too, for Van Buren,. A few of the disaiected
and waverrg fell into the trap, and consented
10 become 'hewers Of wood and drawers OF
water" for these arstocratic demagogues, who
were many of them candidates for office at
that election. But the event proved that the
Tory Lawyers had deceived their followers II
not themselves. The Wings carried the Coun-
! w by a majority OF III VOTES lof hocudtolS-
and in 1887 the Wing majority for Senators
had increased to $50 votes.-And in 1888 the
Wing majority for Senators come up to 902
voles.*
In 1885 there were eight whole hog Van
Buren, men elected as representatives TO the
Legislature and Two fence men, from this
County. But mark the difference in 1885,
This year the same party elected only three
and one Conservative was elected by the
Wings of one Of the small towns, against the
regular Van Buren, candidate. II should be
borne in mind also, that the Wings OF this
District elected their candidate for Congress
last fall BY between II and IS hundred majority.
So much for the Van Buren, gain claimed by
this clan of designing Lawyers, who edit the
"Windham County Democrat" While the
actual wing vote of this County was 600 larger
in 1898 than il was in 1886. The actual Van
Buren, vote for Senators in the County was at
least $50 smaller in 1888 than it was In 1886.
And vet in the face of all these facts these reTy
reracio,s Lawyers Of the Democrat, IN order
10 keep up the spirits Of their followers and par
tisans, are driven TO the desperate alternative
, 10 claim an increase of votes in this county
I during all this time. Really, II they should
= 90 on increasing for three years longer at the
same rate, the Wings would have majority
of at least 1000. Indeed there is little dou9
, that on full vote in all the towns oil TINS
! county, the Wings can give majority Of a
least 1900 at the next election, IN spite Oh al
The deception and falsehood which has been
r or may be, trumpeted forth by the aioresai'
GUSTAVUS.

Its contents will comprise Literature, Polite

Mr.. HARPER A piece appeared in the
Spectator In March last, nominating Colonel
M'Cue and Mr.. John kouizman TO repre.
sent US in the House OF Delegates. A report
vs. 'ndustriousIy circulating in the county,
That this was done by some persons in Slaun-
ton, with view TO disparage The preten sions
OF Col. MeCue and 10 reflect en- Col NJ Cue
0y associating his name with Mr.. John
KoutZiIan and this report, ii is said has
done much TO advance the COPS interest
w ishing that "every tub shouIR stand on lis
own bottom" have made Some enquiries
into this matter, and have heard that the Ed,
1ior OF the Spectator says, thai il is not true
That The piece which Col. McCue's friends
think SD offensive, came from Stanton. but
on the contrary, il came from the neichbor-
hood of Fishersviile. Now il seems 10 me
very unfair that Col. alcCue's friends should
be circulating such story without having
first ascerIained il il was true, aud get him
votes thereby. But let me ask what there
was in the piece to disparags or reflect on
Col. McCue, or give offence 10 his friends (;
have some Dutch blood coursing through
my veins and have yet TO learn vha, there
IS so bad in the character Of The Dutch, that
Col. McCue or his friends, should feel de-
graded, or reflected upon, by having his name
connected with an homes, Dutch farmer such
as | believe Mr.. Kouizman TO be. Mr.
Koutzman, in point of character, will com
pare with any OF the candidates, and az for
good hard sense, he has as much OF il + think
as Col. McCue.-True, he may not have re-
ceive6 as much Of a polish, or as large for
tune as Col. McCue, and may have had TO
follow at the tail Of his plough more, but he
is not the less worthy man on that account,
and really | cannot for my life see how or
why Col. McCue's friends should feel that
he was disparagcd or reflected on merely
because Mr.. Kouizman's name, though he
% Dutchman, was placed alongside II the
ColonePs, and fearing that these friends Of
Col. McCue might think that The Colonel
would not be honored, but reflected upon
and degraded, il he should chance 10 be
Iected by Dutcbmen's votes, have come 10
the conclusion that the Col shall no, receive
the vote Of al least one
DUTCH FARMER.
