CHARGES AGAINST Grx HARRISON.
1T is remarkabls. says the Fredericksburg, Are
m, that Of all the charges which the opponents
OF Gen. HARaisos have brought against him,
there Is not one which has bern sustained. Aho-
ii,ion. Federalism, selling vine men Tor debt,
and all the other sccusaiions which PARTY maiig-
nifty has invented, have not only been shown 10
be false and slandsruus, but have. in the end re-
doanded 10 his credit
As 10 the charge Of his voting for BIN Tor
selling white FOR debt, il is ridicuIousiy (alse;
no honest man, With full knowledge OF the
facts Of the care, would make the assertion. We
have, heretofore, published The act itself, which,
before u came TO the Senate Of Ohio, Of which
Gen. Hauison was . member, had passed ths
House OF Representatives by an unanimous
vote. We have also given letter OF General
Harrison, written in 1886, on the subject, and
w NV Poott1u anOtUCt communication from
him, addressed TO the Editor Of Cincinnati pa
per, in ls2l, Immediately amer the bill xss dis
posed OF. Its perusai will satisfy any one who
does no, shut his eyes 10 the truth, thal the
charge Is false and unfoonded.
As 10 The charge Of his being black eoekade
federalist-vhieh rests solely upon the assertion
Of John Randolph-we have heretofore proved
is falsiiy. first by Gen. HarrisOnS own declara.
lions that he was always n Republican Of the
Jefersonian sehool--seeoDd, By the fact that be
was appointed to . responsible Ofics By Mr.. JEFF
ferson, Immediately on his coming into power,
who was not likely to have selected q black
coekade fedeTalisi; land third, the clear evil
deuce Of Judge Burnett, an unimpeached and
unimpeaehable witness, who distinctly declares
that Gen. Harrison warmly supported the cleo
ton Of Jefferson in 1900, and that he was al
ways a member Of the Republican party.
