George II. Smith and George ". Bowman.
From the Bedford Gazette, We copy the fol-
lowing extracts from articles on the Senatori-
al election. 1t says in one article:
&c Nelson Smith. one of the representa-
tIves from our own district, is among the trail
tors, and will, whilst he lives. carry mark
which will cause him to be despised and shun-
ned by every honest democrat in the district,
whose dearest interests he has trampled be-
meath his polluted feet"
In another article it adds:
The traitors are Lcbo, Wagonseller, Me-
''near, Cresswell, Calhoun. Foster Fausold,
Hill, G. n. SMITH, Nicholson, and Johns.
1.-The three first voted for Cameron direct :;
'the others refused to go into coucus, and
thus aided indirectly to do what they had
mot moral courage to do DIRECTLY.
THE three who voted for
Cameron are more honorable men than the
"cowardly ingrates who courted issue, but
had not the moral courage to do the deed"

ravings..of General GEORGE WAsmNeToS Bow

ting comparison between bim and the man

however, and nothing but the necessity of the
