Powell, Esq, of Amherst, the Democratic candi-
date for C onsress from the Albemarle District
Mr.. P. is we'll known for his strong sense. scr-
ling Democracy. and The strong hold which he
has upon the people of The District. He will, no
doubt, receive, as he well deserves, the sup
port Of every Democrat in the District
That SUCH will be the case, We infer from The
significant fact, that he was brought forward and
sustained by VIM. F. Gordon, Esq, of Bedford,
who was an active member of The Taylor Con-
