TIE Enquirer Of the current week, which
came to hand just before going to press
contains lengthy editorial accusing Mr.
Parvin, our nominee for Senator, of inccn
sstency in his past political action, and 81
abandoning the Democratic party because
he was not nominated for Office in certain
convention. We knew that Mr.. Parvin's
opponents were making desperate attempts
to defeat him at the approaching election,
bat we had not supposed that any one &C.
quainted with the facts alluded to in this
article would presume to charge him with
inconsistency.
We have not had an interview with Mr.
Parvin'since this article appeared, but from
our own knowledge of the circumstances,
brand the assertions of the writer as a mix
ture of falsehoods and perversions ofthe truth
1t is true that Mr.. Parvin participated in the
Upton Convention in the spring of 1854,
which nominated Stephen Hampstead for
Congress. 1t is true, also, that in the Dem
ocratic County Convention few weeks
subsequently he was q competitor of Col.
Isett for the nomination of Senator. But in
both Conventions he ,uds an arowed anti
Nebraska Democrat, and in the latter sub
mitted his claims solely on that issue. This
was the reason he failed to obtain the nomi-
nation, in OUR humble opinion. Of course
when the Convention refused to denounce
the Nebraska iniquity, but endorsed it, Mr.
Parvin, with others who held the same view,
as himself, dissented from its action and re-
fused to support its nominees. 1t should be
borne in mind that this was the first attempt
in this county to make an endorsement Of
the Nebraska measure test of party fealty
Mr. Parvin honestly entertained his views
on this question, and rather than sacrifice
them, he refused to act any longer with the
party. The circular which the Enquirer says
was issued by him, set forth these facts at
length, and was also signed by DR.. Chs. O.
Waters, s. Tufts, A. T. Banks, Ed. Stewart
Thomas Morford, VIM G. Hackett, Matthew
Brown, Stephen Belden, VIM. G. Brown, j.
D. Biles, and Samuel Lucas-all Democrats
and men universally esteemed, whose ton-
es'y OF purpose in SO doing cannot be ques.
tened.
There is one more point to which we will
call attention. Long before the County
Convention above referred to Git was held
on the 18th Of July, 1851 Mr.. Parvin une.
quivocally signiied his position on the Ne.
bra.ka bill. This was at a promiscuou.
meeting of citizens of Muscatine, held at the
Court House on the 18th of March, 1854, te
take into consideration the Nebraska bill
then pending in Congress. By reference tc
our file we find that the speakers who de.
nounced the measure were W. G.. Wood
ward. Jacob Butler, Henry O'Connor, R
NJ. Burnett, JOHN A. PARvIN, D. G
Cloud. DR.. G. 0. Waters, Rev. J. Il. White
and Jerome Carskaddan.
Need we add any other proof to refute
this false accusation We think not. Ev-
cry unprecedented man who will take pains
to investigate this matter cannot but admire
and applaud the honest, bold and manly po-
sition which Mr.. Parvin has ever occupied
on this question. -.

Messrs. ALTERING d. BRuMMELL, who have
been twelve or fifteen years in Evansville,
and were the first firm to open a complete
clothing establishment in the city, have not
fallen behind any of their more recent and
youthful competitors in the fashions and i'm
provements of the times. They have two
stores-one on Water and the other on Main
street, both of which they keep fully sup
piled with large STOCKS of fine clothing, which
comes to them in daily and weekly ship
ments from their two large clothing houses
which they have for many years maintained
in Cincinnati, where they do large busi-
ness. Their means are ample-their motto
has ever been "small profits and quick re-
turns on large business" BY fair and hon.
est dealing they have-like their garments
worn we'll with their customers, many OF
whom have adhered to them through theil
whole career in business among us. They
are now prepared to receive their old friends
and as many new customers as need protec-
ton from the chilling blasts of the season
and these pinching times.
