manI of yopr readers, i herewith apply
myselt.to the task oflpostfng you up in
our affairs In the midst Of sttibnlation
weihays asserted ourrtghts, and made the
sccTling. dupes of JEFF Davis & Co. feel
our power and'tremble. :.
70 our county belopgsthe honor of hav-
ing struck the trst blow. inf favor of poor
down-trodden, but noble Western Virginia.
Sold by unserppuleps leaderss,to,, a. base
conspiracy, we, in common with our-breth.
rem elsewhere vest of the Blue Ridge,
have dared to give e pre- 81 on to our i6y-
atty TO the lag Of our foFefd hets aud hdy-
ing done SO, we vii l, maintain our position
till the last. Knowing that we have ma
i ny embitteted foes in our midst, we shall
itakes care of them, " hen their measiFe Is
FULL We do not fcars,them, but on the
contrary, they fear us, and liatr us ina
4 most waolesome wayt. You will perceive
that LOB votes were cast in this county for
treason and We know that a p4nlbet ;of
i I.others " Tho lacked the bock kbone 70, testify
their iniquity at the polls, abstained from
voting through prudential motives, hoping
thus 10 escape the odi6m that fails upon
/ thettraitor But are they safer men than
tnoSs kwho vote their sentiments-thnn
those who, with some show Of courage!
cast their votes for an iplioly pun pose r.
by nc. means As fir as our experience
| goes give US the outspoken kuavc rather
than the, covert villain, who plots and
hopes, and fears, and finally stops tindeci-
j ,ded;in his wicked course. An cpen zoe Is
iarI less dang geEo9s Than the hidden enemy.
And while we confess, to snme little ad-
mtratton for those who openly voted 1ldam-
nable treason id our mi 81, swe we'feeI an IN :
utterable scorn for the weak-kneed gentry
| who were lately so blatant for IS ecessien %
but now 80 crest. fallen that that they not
ly6eoulainot face theB ballot box as trai-.
tors, but have, for some tins past endeln-
yored TO- pass thsmse ives o as good Union
hmen.S But j have -saidn enough of these
Ecreatures, andtwill now dismiss chem to
the enloyue1t Of their own secret 1 thoughts,
wherein fth or; final end may be discovered.
