the last election in this county. The Dem.

or so before the election. he expressed en-

Central Committee, sen for him and told
him there were charges Of an Infamous and

positively refused to do so. and when the

A Lame Goose

"Whiffett" desires very much to divert
attention from his own REASONABLE course
By trying to make it appear that other are
IS bad as himself. We said to him three
weeks ago that his motives and those of
the n. Y. Tribune. in. Publishing Breckin-
ridges infamous speech. were very differ
cnt, from.the fact that the latter had pub
lished the speeches of certain other loyal
men. which he refused to do. In reply to
this. after chewing on it couple of weeks.
he asks us to tell him what the motives of
the Tribune were in publishing certain ex-
tracts before the attack on Sumter. which
ne gives. a'veacting the right of peacea-
BILE secession. If this is not begging the
question. we should like to know what it
is! We never undertook to, defend the
course of the Tribune or to explain its mo-
tives. except in one instance. and if our
argument or inference was not correct in
that case. it would have been proper enough
for "Whifet" to have exposed II. but as he
attempt. nothing OF the kind the inference
is irresistible that be could not. +.
Why does Whiffet resurrect these old
extracts? Unless he is in favor Of peace
able secession we cannot divine his object
We were disposed before Fort Sumter was
assaulted rather than go to war with the
South, il the secessicnists would refrain
rom violating the laws until the people
gave their consent, to- les them. go peacea-
ably. bu; now we are in favor of subduing
them and forcing them to remain in the
Union. no matter what sacrifice Of blood
and treasure it may require. We presume
the Tribune looked with horror upon the
prospect of civil war. and in order to a
vert it If possible. thought the nation
should slmie the right of peaceable seces-
sion. Whether right or wrong no one ev-
er suspicioned that it was acfuateyf by any
sympathy for the rebels. differing in this
respect very widely from Nominal Vhiffet
But the Tribune is able to defend its own
