Gen.lemen:-As the election approaches, the skIes
arc bright and brigh,cning;" and, from no small ac'
ouaintauce with public sentiment here and conSdera'
Die conversation with gentlemen from every part oi
our county, think you may put it down as CERTAIN
that bigger majority than 0 will not be given for
the Flourn0y ow-Not!ng Wing ticket IN old Fall-
nuier. Indeed, il seems To be acknOwlcdg by the
know.Nothinss, tha this is n liberal estimate for TINS
county, where, he IT remembered six weeks ago, tcy
boosted they could md would beat us from four To Six
hundred votes. Gentlemen from other parts OF our
State have been told, to look at us for the ast"h''hn
effects OF "Sams appearance in Virginia. Sa' wv
majority for them is the highest claimed figure ana II
ths Democratic nominees don't do better, am much
mistaken. In some of their strongest Wing precincts
the Democratic vote will he comparatively larger
than it has ever been. Many oM Ways (the best
men, will vote with us, or hold off. SAM mny
pratc, but next week will show him how to r"f''
The spirits OF our pary never better, and therc
is determination 10 lnsh the miserable demon OF
Northern progeny from midst, aud return II 10 inc
