dom that YOU hear from this vicinity, and
having little spare time, pen You n few
lines to inform you what is going on in this
neigbborhooa.
Politics of course is the ruling topic of
:he day. There are only two tickets in the
field in this county. The Republicans, or AS
they term themselves, the Unonists, have n
few milk and water democrats mixed in with
them, but rejoice to say their number is
but few They feel corflent of victory. but
in my humble opinion they will meet with a
defeat that will make them sick of their 'rip
snoring Union party, for some time to
come. They do not hesitate to apply the
epithet traitor, rebel or secessonis, to every
man who refuses TO support their organiza
ton.

am in favor of supporting both at all haz

platform, or a point in their organization,
wherein they support the Union and uphold

TO the almnis,ration-lhe Union and the
Constitution is left out Of the question 10y
them.
The Union Democrats framed platform
simple in its construction, and tending to the
GOO! Of the country and support of the Con.
situlion; they nominated good men for the
Senate and Assembly, and when the Nation
al Democrats held their Convention they
ratified all the nominations excep. that OF
John Dennis, in whose place they substituted
B. Stevens, who has since Withdrawn in favor
of Dennis. Thus the two wings of the dem
ocratic party in this county will have the
pleasure of voting the same ticket, and the
enemy will be dispersed like chat before the
wind. hope ere long tosee the democracy
of the State united us formerly is sustaining
the Union in peace and prosperity, now and
