that such monstrous political torpedo should
have been sent to Smith Miller's protege
the Postmaster at Newburg. The very fact,
of a copy having been sent to him, is conclu-
sive evidence that the Chairman of the State
Central Committee cared very little whether
it was made public or not. II it acre a mat
ter the exposure of which would seriously in
jure the party it was intended to benefit, we
should much sooner believe this Postmaster
had been tearing open circulars addressed to
some other person, than that it had been ad-
dressed to himself
The Circular commences by stating, that
the opposition to Old Liners in this State
must triumph. is beyond all reasonable doubt.
The only question is, as to the majority
That it may be as great as possible, we must
E all work" These Old Line editors mast re-
ceve great deal Of comfort from the fact,
that the Peoples State Central Committee are
no longer working to defeat Old Lneism in
this State, that being considered certain, but
are merely trying to secure a tremendous ma
jority. We shoald think these editors would
hesitate to publish this TO the world. The
: Circular proceeds to advise the opponents
(. of Old Lineism hoa0 to work, and we endorse
its suggestions. 1t advises that speeches be
delivered in every township of the county,
and that all who can speak take the stump
and that documents be put in the hands Of the
doubtful. So we say. Let every man go to
work who can work. This is what the Old
Liners have been doing for months past. Scat
ter documents abroad freely, that voters may
read and think for themselves, instead Of SUBJ
hitting to be led by the noses by unprincipled
demagegues- The Circular says secondly
We are advised that the "Old Liners are
making arrangements to bring voters from
kentucky (where no election is held on that
day,) and other adjoining States, for the pUr
pose Of carrying the State Election. We must
net submit to this Border Ruffian mode of
controlling elections. Let no illegal vote be
put into the ballot box.
We call the ate ntion of the people to this
5aGt. There is no doubt bat that the Old Lii
aers viii play desperate game Of Importation
this election. Let them be watched--as the
Circular says" Let no Illegal vote be put into
the Ballot Box" This is advice calculated to-
make the Old Liners indignant. They don't
want to be watched. They dent want Illegal
votes kept out of the Ballot Box. If they do,
then they wiz aid in carrying out the advice:
of this Circular, and thank the Committee for
their suggestion. 1t is only rascality which
dears honest proposals.
The Circular advises that tickets be printed
and sent INTO every township several days pre-
wious to the election, and put into the right
hands. We cali the attention Of the opponents
of the Old Liners to this suggestion. In town.
ships in this county, we have time and again,
aost votes 10y 'carelessnesss.5 this particular,
Weters often did not get to see any other than
Democratic tickets till they came to the polls,
and even then sometimes Others were not to-
be had. See that plenty of tickets are distrib-
tuted throughout each township and that they
are placed in the right hands--that is in the
hands Of men who viii use, not destroy them.
Ihe Circular suggests that they ought 80 be
pBinted on paper the same appearance and
and .celer used by the Old Liners. The En-
equirer calls this a miserable attempt at fraud p
paper, that this suggestion was made to pre-.
geat fraud, not TO enact frauds. lie knows the
