reader of that sheet we know something of
its political character. We have known II for
several years as one of the most bitter and
unscrupulous enemies of the cause which tho
Republicans of Worcester county now seek to
promote. 1t may perhaps be remembered by
some of our readers that this paper not many
months ago was Fillmore newspaper, pretty
much modelled after the style Of the New
York Express, the editors Of which paper it
