who Tor weeks paa have given up the
whole Of their atteatioa 10 the gathering Of
the bcuntiful hassests with which, their
t.bers haze been rewarded, the caavass
has excited hxt little interest; but tbe,nol-
isicians and aspirauts, 50 far as the. wbigs
are conceraed, have been exceedingly &C
tive and bssg- EnOouragcd;in thelbsaef
that coaaidasahlc dissatisfaction exised;in
our ranks in relation 70 the nomination cf
our candidate for Delegate, they have been
pessevesing in their efforts to. incsease tbe
imaginary scism. For this purpose, and
To destroy Gen. Dodge in the estimation
efhis fellow citizens generally, they have
ssssiled him with the most ruthless bitter
ness. and in language which might ,,chal-
hage the anna!s Of political warfare fsr Ste
pasallsa in coarseness. Every oct ofhis
ave ysas' public service has been d;sssrt-
ID; the lowest and most selfish appeals
hare been made against him; and nissep-
resentstion has done its worst to .aefeat
his election. s s 4s
