The Opposition Republican candidates for
the Legislature, unable longer to face tho
indignant rrowns of an outraged and insult
ed people, are endeavoring, by a deatb-bed
repentance, to atone for the sins Of the past
Finding the cry Of "humbug' no longer
available to meet the stern demands of the
people for the passage of an usury law, they
are trying to make virtue Of necessity by
.Jeigning love for that measure and we firm.
ly believe that il we had broached tho doc
trino of restitution Mr.. Cuppy would prone
ise to reGund-alter the eleotionl
We must be permitted to doubt this elev-
enth hour conversion of the Opposition Re-
publican candidates for the Legislature, es-
pecially in view Of their hntecedents present
associations, aud money'sharking propensi-
ties. They remind us of scene we once
witnessed-but the like we hope never to see
again. IL was that of an old reprobate,
writhing in the agonies of death top and
lacerated by the stings Of guilty conscience
unable longer to sin against his maker ;
promising, in the littleness Of his soul, if his
Savior would save him now, that hereafter
he would do more than the decalogue re-
quired This is precisely the position Of
the Opposition Republican candidates on the
usury question, at the present time. No
longer able to stem the current of popular
indignation setting against them, they prom
ise now to advocate the passage OF an usury
law, with "penitentiary" clause attached.
Tomorrow we shall attend to the white-
liyered lie Of Deacon Comfy, viz. That I'VE
charged the Republican party with ALL being
money sharks and shavere" You should
not be permitted, Deacon, by your over-
bearing insolence, to palm of on the public
or upon us, any such ialsehood What we
did charge--and We reiterate the charge
was, that the wire workers who operated
the machinery of the Opposition Republican
Convention put candidates denomination who
were in tho interest of usurers; and, by the
nomination of Cuppy, "the prince of usu-
rers' after and in the full face of the resoc
luton passed at the Democratic Convention,
shows clearly that the moving spirits of your
party resolved, at all hazards, 10 smother
the growing spirit of discomfort with the ex'
isting order of things IN monetary affairs
And we charge you, Deacon Comfy, the old
mo-honored advocate of regular banking
with the attempt to throw chaT in the eyes
of the mechanics and manufacturers Of your
own party, and to literally sell them out tc
tho Shayers and Shylocks, us You did the
old Wing party, with all its bright and bril-
liant intelleots, and honorable associations
to the Know'NOthing party
On tomorrow, we expect to picture ou
an "ingrate' in all his hideous deformity
and his malignant attempts to prejudice oul
case, now in the courts of this county, anG
yet undetermined

tempting to close the shutters, fell from the

not discovered till next morning, when she

The End Of Nothing.

The Telescope" Of this week, in reply to
our article Of last week, has seen proper not
to allude to the "Horse Show" or "Califor'
mia Taylor''--the only matters in dispute be-
tween us. We accept this-it will be ac-
cepted by all who have taken the trouble to
read our effusions--as q virtual abandon
ment of the disp ute. The Telescope" how
ever, still higgles about it's report of DIR.
Durbin's address, and quotes portion OF
it and though on Objectionable sentence is
left out enough is given to prove what we
said with regard TO the spirit which dictated
parti,colored notice Of what the "Tele-
scope" said was not intended for the public
earl The trickster is evident in the effort Of
our Cotemporary, and the performance is beI
low mediocrity It is very ungraceful
backdown, in bad spirit, from an untenablc
position, and we throw the mantle of chari-
ty over it--a mantle whose principal mates
rial is silence.
But, before We turn our friend over to the
uninterrupted discharge of his religious du'
ties (aud here we ask pardon for having in
nocently interrupted them) we beg to assure
him that we have not been actuated in any
thing we have said with regard to the "Tel0'
scope" by a sectarian spirit The charge is
not true. We are not connected in any way
with the Methodist or any other sect We
are in position to say what we conceive
to be our duty about all matters pertaining
to church or State. We do this without ask
ing the privilege of any body. If we give
some space in our columns to church mat
ters, it is because we desire to keep oui
readers-members of all churches, and
members Of no Church-posted on such mat
ters; and the information is furnished u.s. Az
an instance of our independence in regard
to Methodist church movements, we refer the
"Telescopo' to our structures on the Lay
mems Association of the M. H. Church
when in session here recently; articles
which we doubt not the editor read and rel.
ished. at tho time.
Finally, these sectarian jealousies, snnrl
ings and snsppings, which we sometimes no
tice, are anti Christian. They ore not o.
the Holy Spirit, but Of the Devil. We make
no determinations make no distinctions be
tween sects, in this expression of contempt
for the practice. Being a constant reader
Of the Telescope" and only occasionally
seeing other journals of religious devotion
it may be possible that our attention hai
been more persistently called to these fault
at home than abroad The absence of sucl
things in religious papers viii have the eff
feet of "drying us up" We don't think am
other plan will meet our views.
