Some one, (Newman, probably has written a letter
to the Washington Globe, from this city, in which
there arc falschOOds enough to cover the writer with
eternal shame. lie states that Preston county will
give 100 majority for Van Burcr. and that Mr.. Van
Buren, Will get a large majority in this Congressional
district. These statements the writer knew 10 be
ialse-kHew that the wings would have 90 majority
in Preston, and a. least five hundred in this Congrcs-
sional district. This by no means constitutes the
whole Of the misrepresentation contained in the letter;
but those who are acquainted with The hcts Will see
enough in these statements TO justify u disbsliefof eve.

ter knows that there arc not less than seventy in lhis
county who have left the Van Buren, party snd Joined
