To THE EpiroR OF THE Journal
Our city, usually so quiet at this season
Of the year, IS somewhat agitated and
kept in commotion by divers reasons.and
causes, some Of which aye Reporter viii
endeavor to dilate upon.
In the wake Of the news, so well re-
Eceived here BY Republicans, of Luther
! Hanchett's nomination for Congress, the
nomination off D. Roymert, of this city,
by the Democracy of this District, is also
announced. Mr.. ReYmert may be
good man, but his political record is, by
| no means, an enviable one. Long accus-
toned to wire working, and the intrigues
ofparty, he hesitatesnot to sacrifice his
best friends, if by so doing he can accom-
plish his own erds, and the result j., that
he has, even in his own home, but few
warn friends. His home origin, the Hud-
son North Star, will, we are inclined TO
think, render him but feeble support.
It viii be remembered that last spring,
at the city election, Mr.. Reymert worked
and voted for Republican, against Sid
ney S. Starr, and although we cannot
doubt Mr.. STAIRS devotion to the Demo-
cratic party, neither can we believe that
he can forget the very contemplate
course pursued by Mr.. Reymert toward
him at that time. -
Mr.. Reymert is also responsible 70 the
Democratic party in this section of the
country, for the election totha Assembly
Of poor, imbecile Democrat from Supe-
rior, when we should have had home
man, and also for the election of Re-
publican, when The Democracy could, if
they had had even the shadew of man
IN nomination, have beaten Mr.. Whittlc-
sew. No man can talk louder or harran-
que oftener than the Hon. gentleman in
question, upon proper regard for the
| principles Of his party and the bestowal
OF the offices upon good and true men;
yet, in the face of all this, Mr.. Reymert
forced THAT is the word upon his par
ty a young man as candidate for the As
sembly, so well known to be destitute of
principle, honesty, or morality, that we
can hardly conceive of greater insult
| that could be offered to the electors
of this Assembly District. Mfr. Reymelt
was well aware that the young gentle
man who engaged rooms at the Capitol
House," Madison, for 'myself and lady,"
and who also paid fare for two to Sparta,
shortly after the election last fall; was.
recently, Republican. He, Reymert,
cannot deny writing a little squib for The
Star, in 1857, which was instigated by
remark of the "ex-Assembly man. and
which reads rs follows:
| i
A Republican at our elbow says that if it
was not for the cd id Irish, he
he would vote with the Democratic per-
ty." H..
The item can be seen in the files Of
the Star, and it will be but doing justice
to Messrs. Clewell & Elwell, whom we
heard make the assertion last spring,
when there was trouble in the ranks) to
state that at that time, and in fact for
long time thereafter, the Star was yirtu-
ally in the possession of Mr.. Reymert.-
Now, one oftwo things is evident. Eth
er your correspondent "fabricates," or
else Mr.. Reymert believes in "total de-
prnvity." We have the documents to
back up our statements. In the name of
all that's good, let us have men nomina-
ted who have been consistent and hon
est in their political career. ~
Judge Fuller, DIR. Everts, and others,
have just returned from Superior. They
assert that it has rained six days ont of
the sixteen they were absent. Judge
Fuller is sorely exercised over the letter
that appeared in the Star, from S. w.
Fuller, last week. The Judge has boen
invited to Milwaukee, and several other
places, to make Breckenridge speeches,
and we understand that he accepts
With the fluent manner in which he adj
dresses an audience, and the mastery
language he uses on great occasions, we
have no doubt the Judge will accomplish
wonders-ifhe keeps sober long enough
to collect bis thoughts.
Having spun out this letter much Ion
ger than it should be, we will have TO
postpone several important items until
next week. Yours, !,
