out to have no basis on fact, but is simple
an invention Of some fertile Know Nothing

was given, in recent speech says:

To associate with such mon as Lafayette

duplicity that no man who honors the

MORE Know. NoTH1No TAcr1cs.-We
call attention to tho card of Mr.. l!elmick.
published in another column, from the
Weston Herald. 1t seems that what
mon can't be bought with offers of Office,
are offered money. by the party purifiers.
The last Herald publishes cards Of James
Bennett, Esq, denying the report circu-
latea by the Know Nothings that he was
member. and of John Brannon, Esq,
the Democratic candidate for the House
of Delegates denying the charge that he
had been refused admittance into the or
der. and proving that they had offered him
the nomination. The same game is prac-
tieed here. We heard man who ayow-
ed himself KnowNothing, say. the 9TH
err day, that those in this town who were
most opposed to the order. had been re-
fused admittance into it. We knoO tho
assertion to be false. It's also well
known, shat every man of any prominence
in the county. who had taken no active
part in regard to the matter. has been Of

NEW U. S. MARsHAIs.-Mr. Wilson,
Deputy U. S. Marshalat Charleston. has
resigned his office, and W. NJ. Estell. has
been appointed in isPlsee. Under all
the circumstances, this was probably re-
quired of Mr.. Wilson. as an honorable
gentleman. The slight acquaintance We
have with Mr.. EsteIl. aud his general re-
putation, induces US TO believe that hi
appointment i. good one. We are gra-
tilted that he has received it.
We learn, also. that the Deputy D. s.
Marshal at Wheeling has been removed
by Mr.. Martin.
Il was the bad appointments of Mr.. Mar
tin that has placed himin the unfortunate
position he has occupied, and We are
pleased to see that he is relieving himself
of the cause of his difficulties.

Thos. s. FIournoY.

LIE: the people of Western Virginia rec.
ollect that the Know Nothing candidate
for Governor ran as MIXED BASIS oAND1~
DATE for the late Constitutional Conven-
ton, and that he was warmly in favor
of that measure which was calculated to
deprive our portion ofthe State of its prop
er representation in the Legislature. How
can Western men support him in prefer
ence to one who has rendered them such
essential services as has the Democratic
candidate
And let them further resollect that Thos
s. Flournoy is in favor of contributing all
the revenue of the State to the different
monopoliziny railroad companies. whose
works constitute the so-called "leading
lines" of internal Improvements. II his
wishes are carried out, it will be forty gears
before single dollar Of the State funds is
again appropriatedin any county in North
western Virginia
Can our people support the man who is
thus opposed to all our best interests
