r. The Democrat tries to make some
thing out of the fact that Mr.. Haigh, OF
Argos, in speech he made a couple Of
weeks since from the balcony of tho Eli
wards House, commenced by saying
Working men and Greasy Mechanics"
Every one understood it as hit at his
Mightincss and laughed heartily. You
can't make anything by pulling that string,
Affidavit. What Affidavit says about Mr..
Haigh's dress and personal appearance
every ono knows to be lie. Mr.. Haigh
is plain, nnassuming man, but possesses
four times the amount of brains that AZ
fdavit and his Mightincss both together
possess. ~, -
AS Affidavit seems so much exercised a.
bout the remark made by Mr.. Haigh. al
though made merely to remind his audi.
ence Of the real sentiments of the Demo
cratic leaders in regard to them, we invite
his attention to the following: -
Democratic Opinions.
The Charleston Mercury. the organ Of
the Democracy in that city says:
Slavery is the natural and normal con-
dition of the wlaJor;ag man whether
WHITE or BLACK. The great evil OF
Northern free society is. that it is burden
ed with scribe class Of MECHANICS and
LABoRERs unff for self government. and yet
clothed with the attributes and powers Of
citizens. Master and slave is q relation
in society as necessary as parent and child
and the Northern States will yet have IL
introduce it. Their theory Of free govern.
ment is delusion.
Another splinter from the Democratic
platform is from the Alabama Aessenger
as follows:

He admits that he has refused to assert the

THAT the Shamocrats confidently ex :
fpscted to carry Che election in TIPS county
by straight forward. barsfaced. downright
lying, 10 desnonstrahle By their persistent
resort to such despecicablc subterfuges du-
ring the canvass. and especially the last
days, On the Monday previous to tho
election. when they thought the Republic
cans would not have time to counteract
their falsehoods. runners were sent out in
to every township for the purpose of mis-
leading the people by giving circulation to
the most damnable Misrepresentation and
falsehoods about the Republican candi-
dates. As specimen o. the fashionable
mesns they resorted to We will mention one
charge they made against Mr.. Barnard.
Affidavit. in speech he made at Marmont.
Union township. Monday night, stated
that Thomas X. Houghton. agood Repub-
lican, had told Mr.. Fl. Corbin that when
the prisoners. Wheeler and Perkins, esca-
ped, Barnard was down town in saloon,
and called upon Mr.. Corbin. who was pre-
sent. to confirm the statement. Mr.. Corbin
said in response that Mr.. Houghton told
him that Barnard was down town. Now
read Mr. Houghton's statement:
PLYMOUTH. Oct. Is, 1860.
Mr.. Editor.-Sir:: understand that at
a meeting held by the Democracy at
Uniontown, (Marmont) in this county. on
Monday the 9Th. the evening before the
election. some of the speakers charged Mr..
Barnard with being at one of the saloons
on the evening the two prisoners, Per-
kins and Wheeler. broke Jail. at the same
time referring to me as evidence Of the
same. Now. Mr.. Editor. wish 10 state
through your paper. for tho purpose of
doing MIR. Barnard Justice, that do not
know where he was on that evening, more
than what he told me himself, which was.
that he was in The Court room preparing
for an evening session. And further, that
never made any such statement as the
above to any one.
THOMAS K. HOUGHTON."
Further comment is unnecessary. The
reader can judge from this what dcspicable
means were rcsorted to by the Shamocracy
Of this county 10 regain their lost power.
Would party that had any principles to
commend it to the people resort to such
base means?

@We suppose no one is sstoaishe6 at
The lies and misrepresentation Affidavit
squirts 1t the Republicans through the
last number Of his filthy and men,lacious
sheet. Beaten rs he is, after the most stu
pendous Efforts on his part in the way Of
downright lying, villifcation and abuse,
aided by those who. have demonstrated
themselves to be no better than he is. it
surprises no one to see him give vent to his
venom and wrath in his usual manner.-
Let him proceed-the people understand
how much his statements are worth.
In the last number of his delectable
sheet he states that the Republicans nomi-
mated Hoham for the purpose Of trading
him off "for votes for Oglesbce. whose
election they did every thing to secure"
and that Fuller said that they had NOM
mattel Hoham to trade him off," 1t is
hardly necessary for us to contradict the
last part Of this statement. Every one
knows it to be q lie. 1t carries the. brand
of fslsehood on its face. Judge Fuller
anthorises US to say that il is untrue. -that
he never ma lie such remark to any one,
on the contrary did all he could honorabiy
to secure Mr.. Hoham's election, by voting
for him himself and inducing others to do
60. An analysis Of the official.yote Of the
county proves the first Fart of Afsidavit's
statement false. Ogiesbee's vote Is Just AZ
greater than the average Republican vote.
while Shosmakcr's vote is IS less than
the average Democratic vote,-showing be-
yond dispute that AZ Democrats scratched
Shoemaker and voted for Oglesbee-we
might. indeed. say that Oslesbee received
A Democratic votes as he lost two Re-
publican votes in German township
Three Democrats, the returns show,
scratched Shoemaker that did not vote for
Oglesbec. Do not these facts prove rath-
er that Shoemaker was nominated BY the
Democracy for the purpose Of trading him
off to insure the election of some one else?
At any rate we heard of several Democrats
saying during the canvass that they would
not vote for Shoemaker because he was o
foreigner On the other hand the objection
TO Mr.. Hoham among Republicans was not
that he was foreigner. but a manufactur-
q Of liquor. On this account sixty-four
temperance Republicans scratched him. but
did not vote for his opponent as did A out
of AZ Of those Democrats who scratched
Shoemaker. We think those temperance
Republicans scratched against Mr.. Hoham
after being nominated. did wrong. but we
will not go so for as to call them "TRAI-
TORS" or rejoice over their DEATH VIZ
think they did wrong because. although
we willingly admit intemperancc to be Z
great evil. it is not near SO great one as
Shamocracy. and in defeating Mr.. Hoham
they inflicted greater evil upon the coun
~ than they destroyed.
Had Affidavit the sagacity Of a mule
he would not have made the assertions re
5erred to above. 1t hes afforded rs en- op
portuuity not only to prove him a liar b,

@ Affidavit charges in his last paper
that "the Republicans throughout the en-
tire county circulated the meanest Of lies
concerning our (his) candidate for Treas
urer. Mr.. John Shoemaker He says:
"They forged what they said was spe-
ci,nen of his hand writing. and showed it
around through the county to men who
had no opportunity to know whether it was
really his writing or not, and many were
made to believe il was, and as it was moth
ing but lot OF scratches and crooked
marks, that no one coulh make any sense
of, many voters were induced to vote a.
gainst him on account of incompetency.
when the fact is, Shoemaker is without
practice better penman than Fuller, the
present Auditor. after his two years prac
tice in the Auditors office"
We have no desire to wound Mr.. Shoe
makers feelings by discussing his compe-
tency for the Office he aspired to. but we
are not disposed to let such falsehood as
the above about our Republican friends
pass by uncontradicted. II is true speci-
men of Mr.. Shocmaker's hand writing was
exhibited around, and.it is also true that
cit was nothing but lot of scratches and
crooked marks. that no one could make
any sense out Of" Lut. it is utterly false.
we venture to say, from what We have
heard about it, that it was a forgery. We
are aware that this is matter Of no i'm
portance now, but certain prominent Re-
publicans having exhibited the specimen al
ludef to. we consider it due to them to say
that we do not believe they would have
exhibited It had they not had good evidence
Of its being genuine. It's not often that
Republicans stoop to circulating Ialschoods
about their opponents. The specimen was
exhibited to many prominent Democrats
in town on Saturday previous to the cleo
ton. and if it was forgery why was it
not then and there exposed? 1t would
have been the easiest thing imaginable to
have done SO had it not been genuine. and
the thing instead Of injuring Shoemaker
would have benefited him.
Again. Affidavit says They also circu-
latetl the theiving report that Shoemaker
had robbed his own jewelry shop. in the
meanest conceivable manner. The villain
that originated that report will steal"
We do not know who originated it. but
we heard of more than one Democra. say
ing he believed it was true. We believe
there were more Democrats than Repuo1>
cans that circulated it. All the prominent
Republicans that we heard speak about the
report said they did not believe it. and we
do not believe the story lost Shoemaker a
single vote. His defeat is attributable to
other causes entirely. chiefly because the
Know Nothing Democrats would not vote
for him because he was foreigner. .
