That he is, in the present campaign, the 0peH,

that ho has never been theOpen, avowed, and con-

the Wing party for the purpose Of "chratising"

his own reputation as for the public good, that he
should commence knight errant and wander
through the political world with horse and arms
in quest Of adventure; and like this chiyalrous
Don, he appears willing for the public good to
cross his sword or shiver lance with all comers
and goers. Should his own reputation and the
public good be advanced in the course he is pur-
suing in this last adventure, no friend of Mr.. At
kinson will rejoice more than |. No party will
be more gratifed than the Wings.
should not trouble you with this reference TO
his course at all, but that the Locofooo party are
endeavoring to make capital out Of his present

that, in Mr.. Atkinson, the Wing party have lost
no friend, and Wing measures no advocate.

Among the changes Of which the Locoiocos
in this county boast, is that of Isaac Atkinson,
Esq. A man changing his political sentiments,
renouncing measures that he has honestly advo-
Gated, from the conviction that he has been in
error, has ever appeared to me as meriting the
appreciation of his fellow-citizens. Such man
entities himself to the appellation of an honest
man. But he who renounces principles, from
any private considerations, abandons those with
whom he has acted, Cor disappointed ambition,
and for the purpose, as Mr.. Atkinson would say,
of "chastsing" them, sa very different character.
Mr.. Atkinson in conversation with Wing,
has no apparent hesitation in admitting, that he
is in favor ofthe Tariff of 1842. That he is op-
posed to theS eSub-Treasury-tha he is in favor of
our present banking system, and with one or t,Oo
exceptions he believes the Tax Law to be equita-
Bile and just in its provisions and principles
Further, in reference to the Wing Ticket in this
county, he has said there is not man on it to
whom he objects, either personally or on ac-
count of his political sentiments-and, had GER
tain other Whig named By himself received the
nomination instead of John Beatty, he would
have supported the ticket. But the people in

Atkinson before their eyes, chose Mr.. Beatty
and now Mr.. Atkinson in his wrath, takes the
field in favor of Locofocosm. will not ask
Mr.. Atkinson whether the motive which impell-
ed him to become the enemy of measures which
are identified with the best interests of the coun-

science. tits enough to know, that from being
an unreliable friend, he has become the open en-

REMEMBER that on the lth of May last,
the "WAR BILL" being under consideration in
the House of representatives. an amendment
was offered proposing TO INCREASE THE PAY OF
VOLUNTEERS FROM EIGHT TO TEN DOLLARS
PER MoNTH-Recordod AGAINST THAT A.
MENDMENT, STANDS THE VOTE OF

And afterwards, to wit: on the Goth day Of
May, 1916, Mr.. Stewart, of Pennsylvania, mov-
ed a suspension fthe rules of the House to en-
able him to offer the following resolution:
"ReSolred, That the Committee on Military
Affairs be instructed to report a bill INCREASING
THE PAY OF VOLUNTEERS from SEVEN to TEN
DOLLARS per month, and granting to those
who serve to the end orthe war; or die in the ser.
vice, ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES OF LAND"

tice to the soldier.

ATKINSON IN A NUTSHELL.

This political weathercock has again assumed
his true position, and rejoined the Locofoco par
ty! Indeed, he has taken Deiord into his special
care and custody; and you may now find them,
night and day, traversing the county in search
of votes. Why this change! Or rather, why
this miserable vibrating from party to party! At
knson himself says, that he left the Locofocos
to "chaStiSe" them; and that he has now left the
Wings 10 "chaStiSe" them likewise. Without
disputing this arrogant assumption of power, or
denying his imagined right to "chaStise" parties
at his pleasure, will explain in few words,
why tits, that Atkinson is now cooperating with
the men whose persons and whose principles he
has, for six years past, proiessed TO loathc and
despise.
Two years ago, he sought the Wing nomina.
ton for Congress, and failed to secure it. Tha,
failure soured hin towards the Wings, and he
consequently dodged the Presidential election
of 1874. This fall, he again felt round him eau.
tiously-urgcd john BEATTY to be a candidate
for Congress-professed his willingness to sup
port CAPTAIN LLOYD for that office; and manifest
ed his usual concern for the Wing Congresson-
al nomination. Every one understood him ''like
q book"
All knew that Mr.. Atkinson desired the nomi
nallOn Tor himself ana lOr NOBODY else; ana, 10
few, he avowed his willingness to be the Whg
nominee for Congress. This was again refused
him; and hence it is that we find him, ''like the
SOW that was washed" returning to his walow
and "like the dog to his vomit." Now, | appeal
to every man who knows Atkinson's political
course to say, whether this is, or is not the ma.
ked and unvarnshed truth?
aver that it is absolutely true, and susceptible
of demonstration. If So what shall we think OF
him as politician! What confidence can be pla.
ced in him, by any man Of any party! "IPauSe
for a reply!"
He may, if it please him, blow hot or cold
"WheeL about and turn about and jump Jim Crorc,
but he will utterly fail to convince honest and re.
Aectng men, that he possesses one grain of po.
litical principle. If there be one Wing in Car
roll county, (out of his own household,) whose
vote he can effect, | should like to see him, and
know what material he's made of!
Pardon me, Mr.. Editor, for noticing, at such
length, man who, as politician, is, LATTER all, per-
haps, entirely unworthy of notice. My object is,
to make the truth public, and no more.
