FIOprneighbors of the Register in
ltheif last issue, kick, -Snortand
stamp IKEA couple of little stump
tailed bulls in a hornets nest over
little .squib Of ours on the
woody heads. y
And in d tone betraying great
soreness of ribs, and most bitter
personal hatred charge our district
~elector J. H. FoosSwith being the
author of said squib. In the
first place Mr., Zoos, did not write
the sqdib he Knew nothing abput
+it, We didr-that thing Iourself We
claim the honon of having brought
lYt~hemldowh with one of their own
clubs Aid If these gentlemen
cannot receive a blow, with the
manly and defiant tone Of a brave
enemy, instead of ysqdealing and
mewling like a freshly spanked
baby, they had better never at
tempt to give one. 1t is a fact, no
t~orious to us all, that in every is
/, sue of the Republican organ at this
, place, the entire theme of the very
+ small portion of original matter
contained init, is the personal de-
. nunciation and abuse Of some dem
n %ocratic candidate, or Of some dem
n ocrat of our town or county. And
e in this very reputable and gentle
manly business, aperfect torrent of
such polite, highsounding and cul-
8 tivated phrases, las "Negro driring To-
cofocOs'' ".Sgare drires" "BombOn
sucking dsmogogues," "&inken mig
GERS" "Double faced SIR sided men,
"Drunkards,"' White slareyy aatd-
Gates" and a thousand others with
3 which we do not deemit proper to
prostitute our columns, has been
used without stint against demo-
Gratis of this county, both as indi-
5 viduals, and as a party. To all
this we made no reply, believing as
we did that the business and the
operatives were properly mated
e We might have said with great
!. propriety, Henry shideler is no
Bourbon Sucking demagoguee!'
e, Joseph Dunn, is not a "DrunkardP'
ro A. D. Borden, is not a "Slaye driy,
Or er!" Sylvester Brinleyi is not a"Twc
w faced six sided man." Yet these
ID epithets were applied by the organ
Of free speech and free negroes in oul
be county to all of the above named
en- gentlemen, and to a thousand 9th
en- er equally good democrats in thi
ed county, five hundred times over
or withoutgany personal distinction
he whatever. We bore this all quiet
re ly and silently, the democratic par
~ ty in this county had borne then
ed for years, without saying a word

in its fullest size, it shows that til
