QvIrK TRUE.-An exchange says, that the
ssmore violent declaimers against mixing pol
ftics with religion, ssare men with curses upon
their lips, tobacco juice upon their shirt bos-
oms, and their whole manhood so stepped in
drugged alcohol, that poor whiskey could be
squeezed out OF their hair" They may, how
ever, be credited with certain sort of consis-
tency in keeping themselves entirely clear of
nil iuputatiou of mixing religion with their
politics. Still they might allow man who
has religion, to be guided by its principles,
without being attacked by ribaldry and SANDER.

DIFFICULTY BETWEEN sTHE CANDIDATES. e
regret to learn that difficulty occurred be-
tween the candidates for Governor while
speaking at Fayetteville on Saturday. The
assault was made By Gen. Harris, and grew
out of some remarks made by his competitor
on the subject of alien suffrage, which Harris
construed personally. Harris pushed Hatton
off the platform, and followed him, when the
parties closed in for fight, but were sepa.
rated before any injury was inflicted On either.
The Nashville Patriot has an article on the
subject, written by the editor, who was pres:
ent, from which We take the closing para,
graph, as follows:
Our i'm preston is clear that the purport Of
Mr.. Hatton's remarks was rs to the doctrine,
and had no personal reference whatever, and
that, to say the very least, Gen. Harris acted
very precipitately, and wholly without suf.
ficent cause. We are informed that Mr..
Hatton has used precisely the same ideas,
and frequently the same words in his pre-
vious discussions and had no dream of giving
personal alfront to his competitor. We know
that the attack was entirely unexpected by
Mr.. Hatton. There were some circumstance
attending the discussion, not under the con-
troll Of Mr.. Hatton, however, that probably
contributed to excite Gen. Harris, to which
we will hereafter refer if it shall be necessa.
ry. Whatever may be the result Of the diff.
fculty, or whatever other construction may
be given to the occurrence or the facts at.
tending it, we feel confident no blame, what
ever, can attach to Mr.. Hatton.
