Base Deception,
AND FALSlFlCATIoN OF THE RE

In an Extra OF The Danville Inlelligencef
IS published the eorbied proceedings Of a
small meeting held at Wikesbarre by the
(iiends OF Beaumont, and called a 'Rauiica

condemns Bes, and Judge Mack as disor

nations of the party, and then, to sustain
himself, FALSlFlES THE RECORD
We ask the democracy Of the county il
they will submit TO be thus contemptuously
treated, and their understanding trihed with

friends Of I,eib if they will submit TO be
thus insulted, and the rights of their friend
taken from him by such base contempt

in the county buckle on his armour, and
