Foss, FREE PRESS Z co.

We have given our best endeayors, and we
think have succeeded to the satisfaction OF all
men who are in pursuit Of truth, to shew tbs fall
sity and a~bsurdity of thu charge as against Gen.
Pierce as connected with the New Boston speech.
With the pure and incorruptible Foss, however,
as the affidavit man, and his willing echo and
sponsor the " Free Press" TO back him up,''
we must knock under and hand them both over
to the upbraidings of their own conscience, and
the derision of all fair dealing men. Salt I'stre
won't save them from the moral leprosy within,
and as like Ephraim of old they are joined to their
idols, we leave them with regret to hardness of

HEAVY RAINS.

Never before, in tho recollection of the "olds,t
inhabitant," have we had such weather in the
month of August. 1t has been raining almost
without nterniskiOn from the tims of its com.
mencement,a and until Suudaylast we have scarce
ly had ono day of uninterrupted sunshine. The
creeks and rivers are very considerably swollen,
and mucn alarm was felt as to an appre.
bonded froshet along the Shenandoah and Poto.
mac rivers. The water however ia now falling,
and but little injury has resulted. The Wheat
both in the shock and stack has been seriously
injured by the rains, and the farmers considera-
bly, %putback with thoir seeding operations. The
Corn and Grass crop never looked more prcmis.
ing, and if there be no frost to injure the Corn.
the crop will be the largest raised in this county
or The Valley Of Virginia for many Years.

q. COLLINS L

This gentleman through a communication in
the Washington Union, endeavors to explain
away the language imputed TO him in regard to
Mr. Webster, at his recent speech in Winchss.
ter. He says:
The precise language used by me ! do not re-
collect, but certainly no words were used in the
sense and for the purpose charged by the paper
from which you have copied, and which you on
that authority attach 10 it in your editorial re-.
marks.
We do not know in what Z" sense, or for what
"purpose" The disgracefuI language imputed to
Mr.. Lee was used, but very certain it is, many
of the best citizens OF Winchester will testify that
the exact language imputed to him by the De
mocratic Platform. % is the precise words used by
him on the occasion. If on h is recent visit TO
Virginia he made a "Jndy'' of himself, It is too
late now to correct the matter by explanatory
cards.

their masters in Washington and Georgetown a
number of slaves, have recently been pardoned
by President Fillmore, and set at liberty. In the
language of a good Wing whom we heard speak.
ing of the matter lately, we say: " Fillmore
would not have dared to do such an act if he had
been a candidate for the Presidency" Where's
