John Reeves and the Rowland Card

In this paper We publish a card rela-
tive TO Mr.. Reeves. with the anne of
several citizens of Rowland attached
1t was brought to us by Mr.. R. on Tues.
day Of last we elk, between 9 and 10
o'clock in the morning. Our paper goes
to press on Tuesday and had more than
enough matter on hand, the most of it
in type, when the card was received, and
its publication was u Of the question,
in that number. Notwithstanding these
facts, with all Of which Mr.. Reeves was
well acquainted he or his mouth piece,
DR.. Paine. has, as we are informed,
thought fit to bestow sundry compliments
upon US, accusing us of unfairness, &c.
to all of which, we have no objection, if
their minds are relieved thereby.
The Doctor is stumping the County
for Williams and Reeves. and is proba-
bly, paying Mr.. Reeves for going bail
for DR.. Watson or Paine, in the Resur-
rection case, IA little fact which will not
be likely to increase the vote for the in
dependents in the northern part of the
County, especially in Southington.
We thought, in our ignorance, that
we were stretching our courtesy 10 q
very considerable length, by publishing
the card at all. 1t was a matter OF no
consequence, so far as the nomination Of
Mr.. Reeves was concerned, whether he
received the vote of Rowland township
or not, as it had but three delegates, and
on the first ballot Mr.. Gilmore received
81 votes, and Mr.. Reeves 80, and if
Reeves had all the Rowland delegates,
it could not have changed the result
But, as we said when we published the
pronunciamento of Williams and Reeves,
we were perfectly willing that every n
of our readers should know all the
grounds upon which they found their
claims for office, believing their own fall
lacy was the strongest argument against
them.
The principal claim which Mr.. Reeves
urges, is that he ought to have had the
Office of Treasurer two terms. He seems
to have forgotten that when himself was
nominated two years ago, Mr.. Zalmon
Fitch, his strongest opposing candidate,
and as firm a Republican as the County
can boast Of, had held the Office enc
team. Mr.. Reeves did not 6eliere in tco
terms then.

WorkFast.

Less than one week is left for the Re-
publicans of this County, 10 work in,
before the election. and it behooves them
that they improve the time. See TO ii
the Township Committees, TO bring voters
to the polls; to see that voters are not
cheated by false or mixed tickets; TO
guard the polls from illegal voting, are
appointed and ready.
Watch for illegal votes.
Speak to your neighbors, and urge
them not TO omit the first duty of free
men,.
Have the teams ready to bring in the
lame, the feeble, and the cid.
Work steadily, remembering that
your opponents are active, unscrupu-
lous, and unfalteiing, that all their vo
tiers are always ready, and that in or
der to be successful, Republicans must
labor without ceasing.

Er. Giddings' Speech

As our paper is just going TO press.
we have neither tine nor space for a de.
lineation Of the address of Hon. j. r.
Giddings last evening at Empire Hail.
The old veteran spoke of his bodily in
irmities, but he gave ample evidence
that his mind did not share them. That
like wine, has improved by age; except
that his voice was less strong. we never
heard him when he spoke with more Wig.
or. His exposure Of the wret:hed posi-
lion now occupied by the Democratic
Party was most admirable. He alluded
feelingly 10 his increasing years, and
the fact that it might be the last time
he would address an audience here
We hope this may not be the case BY
many years. The country has need OF
hip still.

GENrLEMEN:-I consider il my duty 10
state a single fact having a bearing up
on the complaint of Mr.. Reeves that he
was not fairly treated in his own Town
ship, (Howland) in the primary meet
ing.
The fact is ihis:-I was in favor of
Mr.. Reeves nomination for Treasurer,
and so told him several times before the
Convention. As his friend, / urged him
to look well to Rowland, as l thought
he might be defeated there, from what
| knew of the feelings of many persons
in the township. In reply, he assured
me in several instances, that he could
and would control tie election Of delegates
there.
l should not have stated this, had not

jure the Republican cause, by making

GENTLEMEN The publication of a
statement in this number of your PAPER.
signed by several citizens of Rowland,
renders it proper that l should make
known what Mr.. John Reeves said to
me on the subject referred TO in said
statement.
L was DESTROYS that the delegates of
Rowland should support Mr.. Reeves in
County Convention, and SO express
ed myself 10 him and others. In the
forenoon Of the day previous to the pri-
mary meeting. Mr.. Reeves was at my
Office in the Court House, and in a con-
v~ersation with him about the matter, ]
said to him that l believed, from what l
had heard, hat they would vote him
down at the meeting in Rowland, that
is, that they would select delegates I'M
favorable 10 his denomination for Treas
urer; and asked him how the delegates
would be chosen. He replied, when ace
get there we can tell how it looks, and
if all is right, we will elect by ballots;
if not, we viii. take some other course;
and remarked. lin the same connecticut
Ihave aloays succeeded in anything I un-
dertook, and can again.
1 cannot say that l use the precise
language he did, but tie ideai is precisely
tie a that he expressed to me.

matter and would not now, had not Mr..
Il. proclaimed it publicly on Saturday
last, in a conversation with me in the

AessrS. Hapgooa d. Adams:-In the
Chronicle of the inst, there is a state
ment which we think in justice ought to
be explained. 1t is in regard to Messrs.
Williams d Reeves not being supported
in the Republican Convention By the
delegates from their own Townships
We would just say that in regard to the
delegation from Rowland it was brought
about by a few men who were Reeves
personal enemies, by circulating the
story that he had said that he could and
would control the township, and that the
west side of the Greek could beat the
east side in the Township, which we are
now satisfied was manufactured and cir
culated for the express purpose of de-
fea.ing him in his own township, and
thereby have an influence in the Conven-
ton. They also persuaded some ten
Democrats to vote atthe primary meeting,
who bad no other object in view, than
to chastise Lin for having (as they were
made to b%elieve) made The assertion, and
who would not have meddled in a Re-
publican meeting had they not been in
iuenced by those who were circulating
il for effect. We consider the whole
transaction and his being throw n u in
the Convention contrary 10 custom, with
out a single plea of justification, and the
of some who seem anxious to
add insult 20 injury and outrage. We
therefore feel it our duty 10 repair the
wrong so far as we can, and shall so vote
at the coming Election. In so doing We
DO not wish to be understood as forsak-
ing the Republican party, far from ii,
but in Sc doing we intend to rebuke those
who have undertaken 10 control the Re
publican party in the County and injure
the character Of one of our citizens
character is above ~reproach.
