One OF ola Guard.

We received from an old friend in Clear
Greek township in this county an excellent po-
litical article, but for want of room we can not
publish all of it. The following is an extract
and: contains q first. rate sentiment. Speaking
of STEPHEN A DOUGLAS, he says
"He stands charged by the citizens of this
commonwealth with saying that he believes it
is the privilege of every man to exercise his
own Judgment, the freedom of his own will,
the liberty of speech and Conscience and fer
this crime sentence will be passed against him
in November next, that he be sent to the City
of " sshington and placed in the Presidential
chair there to serve his country for four years,
faithfully and to the best of his Judgment.
And may the Lord have mercy on his soul,
and make him fsas wise as a serpent and harm
less as a dow" is the hearty wish of his friend
in behalf of Democracy. as1 7sd3o r.

It is a fact full of import and meaning, that
such men who have. voted the Democratic
ticket for more than fifty years, are still found
standing By the nominees of the party and its
time honored usagess Mr.. Myers, the author
of the above, is now over eighty years old

his vigor of mind unimpaired.

Hon. j. A. mcClernand ON Mr.. Douglas.


The Hon. ]. A. McClernand of Illinois, refused
to support the Kansas Nebraska BILL and go for the
repeal of the Missouri Compromise. He was then,
we believe, as he is now, member of Congress
For his course them Mr.. Douglas read him and all
others who agreed with him out of the Democratic
party, and denounced him a disorganizer and Alb
olitionst Mr. MeClernand is now good Doug asite
and one of the most efficient advocates of Squatter
ISM In sefdefense, in 1854. he gave Douglas fits"
and as the opinion this 4" big gun" of DOuglasism
then entertained of his present leader may be inter
esting, we give an extract from a speech made by
him at Alton, Illinois, in that year
Already have been denounced as dsorganizer
and an Abotionlst, conspiring with others against
the unity and integrity of the Democratic party

Never! l am the peer of the Senator. As one Of

The Jonesborough Union of last week says:
At Elzabethton, in the discussion between Whit

1.-THE Kansas measure was Democratic measure y
Whtthorne asked Taylor if he understood him as
asserting the proposition distinctly? Taylor, who
was sitting a chair on the platform and IN full
view of the crowd, bowed his head, thus giving an
affirmative reply. At this point, Whitthorne drew
out speech made in Congress in 1854, on the
Kansas measure and read these words

This is neither a Democratic moro Wing measure"

Particulars Of the Recent Tragedy In

gives the particulars of the ARRAY there in which
W. w. HANSON, Cashier of the Farmers Bank at
Wytheve, Va lost his life at the hands of o. STATE
editor of the Telegraph;
Some weeks since, an interchange of newspaper
communication took place between the parties rea-
tive to some structures of the former upon the
public acts of the Trustees of the town, of which
body Mr.. II. a member. These articles were
concluded by one from Mr.. H., about two weeks ago
in which he declared himself satisfied To this DIR
S. made reply, thereby maLlfesting disposition
to let the matter drop and the apprehensOns of the
public were alayed IN regard to it. Both the parties
have since attended to their usual duties neither
seeming disposed to interrupt the other until Satur-
day last, about eleven O'clock as Mr. S. was coming
down the street from the postofce, Mr.. Hanson and
one or two friends being seated upon the opposite
side of the street the steps leading into the bank
one of them remarked, Hanson, here comes you-
man."
Upon this, Mr.. II. arose and replied "Well I'll
go the street. and I'll bet you he takes down
the cross street." Suiting the action to the word,
he crossed the street. and took his position the
pavement Immediately ia front of Messrs. Stuart &
Layers store. Mr.. Static came on down. and as he
went to pass by H. gave him blow with his Est.
Upon this Static reiterated few steps, drew Colts
Mr. Static kept up the fire until H. fell having re-
ceiyed two shots-One in the thigh and the other in

sheriff, examined before a magistrate, and adj
mItted TO bail for his appearance the next court
the bail being fixed at $1,000 which was promptly
given. Mr.. Hanson expired about halfpast three
O'Clock this evening.
