All the candidates have been invited by the Wing Central
Committee to in discussion here on the l3lh instant
We should be most happy them all but we regret 70
hear from friend in the West that Col Johnson Will not
come East before the election He about TO proceed INTO
Mr.. Summers immediate vicinity and visit The counties ~
ing upon The line of the Centra improvement we as'
that he will follow up the tracks Of Mr. Summers and remove
any false impressions which the latter may have made by ms
no paryism"though have too much confidence 10 the
people OF Virginia, believe that the yeomany OF Inc
West have fully through the discedaoe masqueF-
ade In which Wing candidate has arrayed himself
The peculiar Eots organ OF this city INDUCES in its usual
rhodomonade il regard TO the expected visit OF Mr. Sum-
ners 10 this city 18Th nst whose presence il
nounces with its usual sagacity woud afford as much sa-
tsfacon TO his friends as i, oM create dsmay among his
opponents" Our only reply TO such 'premaure Dragging
will be grouping of evidence from leading Western papers,
From me Faitmon, True vlrginian
through friend that Gov JOHNSON made speech at Nor
ganown last Thursday week. and that friend and foe
concurred in the opinion his effort could have been
surpassed by any man in virginia perhaps in the Union
He said called TO his recollection the remark OF the cee
braed Philip Doddrdge about him. Mr.. d. on one OCCASION
when he and Gov j. opposing candidates for Congress-
and just the close of porac,cd discussion the stump
said II acknowledge that Mr. Johnson beat the
stump, and any who comes in contact with him will
have To- if he honest do the thing" When the fact
known tina, Col Johnson has won his to the dsnc
lion which he enjoys, in opposition to Doddrdge Sum-
and others Of The cast it be acknowledged
that he is of ordinary capacity. We only wish
that was in his meet Mr. Summers in discussion
before the voters of every county in the Satefor il he
could have no hesitation in saying that believe the
democratic majority in the gubenaoria election would be
doubled at least Gov johnson has hold upon the hearts
power influence of the WING party break weaken
He has been their successful champion for thirty years and
more And he that success well 10 the purity Of
his character the republican simplicity Of his and
habits, and his political integrity combined with ndomabe
energy and industry his intellectual endowmens and
oratorical powers.
From the Stanton indicator J.
The Richmond Times has published silly from
correspondent that hc great of the people, in
Western counties do not regard the contest for Governor
political one" No doubt the Times would have il
considered but the Democrats Of Western Virginia are
such 6es as 70 bs eSnsdefed np6ery S6nddate as
he said In his letter OF acceptance he would be party
candidatethen ne ought to have accepted purity nom
nation, he wishes the Democrats believe him. II
fact well known the Times and George W. Summers
TOO that if he has TO rely the Wing for his election
he's gone sucker
GIVING 1T UP.-Some Of the Federal Wings in Saun-
ion have hope of the election Of Summers than
they have of taking trip the Moon, on Railroad
member OF their Central Committee few days ago stated
as his belief Johnson would be elected by TEN THOUSAND
majority That's pretty good for Wing, but the majority
amt large enough.
WHY is 1T SO?-Messrs. Watts and Baxter &C.
knowledge in their their letters Of acceptance they were
nominated by WING CONVENTION held in Charlottes-
Vile Mr. Summers although nominated by the body
OF politicians, never ntmates that Wing Convention
that nominated him Can neghbor tell why this
essrs Watts and Baxter Wing nominees Why should
Mr. Summers be q 'noparty" nominee7
Neither Mr.. Waits Mr. Baxter in their letters of ac
ceptance say one word about the Union In the language
OF our neghbor can any on reading them tell 1chether
he authors belong to the Union Dsunion Party@
