In another article on the same subject Mr.. Often
dorfer expresses himself even more distinctly, as
follows:

presy understood and In the proceedings OF the State Commit
tee Il was declared that Electors appointed by this Conven
ton Of their election should, under all Circumstances
cast Douglas and Johnson and that the result o.
the Presidential either In this other State should

fore every given for this ticket shall count wholly aad en-
try for Douglas and johnson. Under this upposon and
with this une erstandng the Eetor for the Fifth District was
pominsed under all other circumstances he would have Pc
remptoriy declined the honor"

attempting to cheat 1t would certainly be more
dgpified as well as more decent to let them plainly
understand that they have been sold out wholly
/" and entirely" to Douglas and johnson, rather
than to persist in the pretense that part OF the
Electors to whom their votes have been pledged,
are in some contingency to support Bell and
Everett. Come, geutlem off with your masks,
and let the world zee you exactly you are
