Weekly Register Extra.


Our contemporary under date of Oc-
tober l, has issued an Extra, devoted
entirely to the advocacy of the claims
of their candidates for the offices to be
filled at the coming election. Among
the many shameless and villainous pro
ceedings resorted to by that sheet, in
order to blindfold the people and tram
pie upon their rights, for the sake of
personal emolument, this effort is the
lowest, the meancst, and the most ig-
norantly executed of any that has
ever fallen under our notice. Heartily
ashamed Of the utter worthlessness
and gross incapacity of a portion of
their ticket, they did not dare to come
forward through the regular columns of
their paper, and as intelligent and hon
orable Journalists, advocate the claims
of their respective candidates. We say,
gentlemen, you did not dare to do it
The conscious conviction that every IN
telligent and. thinking voter in the
county, would hurl upon you the vel
deserved anathemas of an injured and
insulted populace, closed your mouths,

whose claims you world not advocate
yourselves, for the ostensible and avow-
ed purpose of advocating their own
claims. The entire Extra consists of a
mere. batch of ignorant and egotistical
impudence, of precisely the same ilk
that characterizcs the ignorant hounds
in all their transactions in life. Gotten
up by the assistances and placed over
the signatures of a couple of office
seeking chamelions, who are painting for
asfdrorable issue in the matter, in order
that one may grasp a pittance of bust
ness (for which he has already been
waiting mouths and the other a few
dollars of pay. If there is one hell
more deep than another, and more
daluning hidcous and terrible in its
character, it is in this the lowest, and
most vile and filthy den of Paudemo-
