HoS. BnL MoxTouMEKY.-Our FREUD, Hon.
Bill Montgomery, is in a bad way, sud is getting
in q worse one as the days roll on. His lUrruer
supporters, the Democratic papers, have turned
on him. They repudiatc him, and there is no
one else that claims hin. The Republicans
are going to have candidate of their own, aud
the Democrats one of different stripe from the
Hon. Bill.
The Wayne, burg Messsnger Dem.) publish
es the bjoined, which we find copied and en-
dorsed by the Washington Examiner, (also
Democratic.) Says the Messenger:
"One would suppose from tho statements of
Mr.. Montgomery that there was scarcely any
body in Congress besides himself tall events
that he was by far the most important man there.
According to his modest statements no import
ant measure WAS originated that did not spring
from himself, and no important measure carried,
that was carried without his aid His giant in.
tellert was invoked to save the administration,
and when his countenance was withdrawn, it
went to the wall. That he was sought aud i'm
plored on all occasions to save or destroy. When
the republicans were to be rallied his was the
will that brought them to cooperate in advance.
ment Of his wishes, and that even ha had to in
woke their aid to save the administration from its
own friends. The opinions Of Congress were
moulded Mt pleasure by him, and the President
never acted without fast taking his advice. All
this Is disgusting enough, and yet it is but
faint approach towards the actual Boosting of
this mae. lie seems utterly inSeHSible Of the
ridicule TO which such egOtistical exhibitions
expose him."
