in October last attended as delegate from
this county to the Syracuse Conven
which put Governor WRrcHr in nominal
ton, arousing with true republican
promptness and instinct TO the dangers
with which factions combinations and Sc
cret treachery threatened the peace and
safety Of the party and its cherished
principles and men. Springing from such
stock, it was natural that General V. A !.
should espouse the liberal Size in the no
lilical questions Of the day--ald such, 10
our knowledge, has been eminenily his
case. Even before he reached the age Of
manhood, hewas well known amongst us
as an able democratic speaker and writer.
In the election Of l8 %, he was an active
supporter OF ANDREwJA JACKSON for the Pre-
sidency and MARTIN VAN buren, FOR
Governor. In 1880, he married a daush-
ter 81 the late JOHN VAN Ness YATES, of
this city, CORNER Secretary of State, and
| shortly afterwards returned to the west,-
where he has ever since resided, (first in
Indiana and afterwards in Iowa, uniform
ly supporting, with characteristic zeal and
iearlesnessi the principles of democracy.
Whilst at The west, he has discharged with
fidelity and credit the responsible duties
of Receiver of Public Monies, Adiutant
Geneaal Of Iowa, BE-; and we infer from
| the tone OF the democratic Prees Of Iowa,
that since its first Organization as Terri.
tory in 1888, no man has rendered more
efficient service than General v. A. in
the thorough organization of the democra-
cy Of Iowa, and in bringing to j, success
at the polls. We rjoice to find (and SO
will the numerous trends of Gen. V. A. in
our county )that his manly character, strong
sense, efficient services, and uniform and
radical democracy, are thus recognized
by the democracy of, virgin State. 1t
speaks well, alike for him and them."-

The Secret Circular.

An effort was made to make the public
believe that the secret wing circular call
i7g upon the faithful of that party to rally
upon Mr.. Harlan as the whig candidate,
was a forgery, got up and published for
elect. They soon found this to be mo 90
The names Of tho wings signed TO it were
too prominent TO be used for this purpose
so long before election. The public may
rest assured that Fitz Henry Warren,
Ebenezei Cook and Jos. H. Hedrick, will
not deny the genuineness of those sigma
lures. Still, there will be efforts silly
made to create such an impression. No
man will stand UP tc our iaoe and pro-
nounce that circular d forgery.

A Pres,sarsfiOn,

In bis communication published in the
Standard, Mr.. Harlan pr,sumes that We
are about to make an attacE upon his char
acter and reputation. WHAT ground has
he for presuming this There can be
none, surely, unless it be his own con-
viction that he deserves such treatment at
our hands. Not one wold had been ut
tered in the Reporter, to initiate against
his moral character. The secret of tine
matter is, that we have treated him toe
mildly and respectfully. He is said to
have evinced, in his speeches at this place
and Bloomington, malignity towards
Judge Mason and ourself, altogether in
compatible with his holy calling.

Integrity Of their naoiires!, Bah /! those
miserable falsifiers. From the moment
the General Assembly concerned at Iowa
City until it adjourned, the whig members,
(there may have been one or two honor :.
able exception,) like the prostitute with
her tavors, were in market, Offering bar
gains and making Propositions. Having
nothing to lose, they were ready and an
sious to enter into any coalition, how ever
base, to defeat the regular democratic cam
didates for the u. S. Senate and the ST.
preme Bench. These facts are notorions
with the very boy in the streets of Iowa
City. Aud call We it integrity, to endeav-
or to send to the U S. Senate that un-
