have discovered within the last few
weeks that there is II storm brewing. Let
every union man look out for breakers.
There are professedIy union men and
some of them occupying high positions,
who are evidently seeking to divide the
Union party. They are death on conven-
tions, when it is we'll known to every re-
fecting mao, woman and child, that it was
the convention held at Wheeling that saved
us from the iron heel of the oppressor, and
though brought about by one who has
since proved traitor to the interests OF
West Virginia, yet that convention was the
stepping stoneto our salvation.
Thank God the rubicon is passed, and
day we stand upon an equality with our
neighboring States, and the men that would
seek to destroy our unanimity are no true
friends to the Union cause. predict that
this harpiug about the Presidents procla-
nation and the ruinous effects of conven-
tions, is the very egg that will hatch treas
on. Our Secretary of State, who owes his
present position to convention held in
Parkersburg, is laboring to sever the cord
which had bound us together. He may
suppose by the use of the press to muZzle
the mouths of those who patrOniZe his
paper. But there is way to manage the
animal when petting and feeding will not
do, that is to take away the feed and it
will become very docile. l see an article
in the PEaindsaler of October 2ud. The Rdi-
tor saws: sit is taken from the Richie Pres,
and is the production of our old Senator"
who is candidate for re election. If his
sentiments were fully known he would
never occupy such position again.
would call the attention of the people in
this Senatorial District to the language
used by our Senator, he says; 81 should be
pleased to see some movement set on foot
that would forever destroy this SLY sneak
log serpent that has been preying 30 long
upon the rights of the people.
The writer wishes it distinctly under
stood that he has never coutended for con-
ventions in times of peace, but in times
like the present, when traitors are using
every effort to divide the union sentiment,
and thereby secure the election of men OPP
posed to the New State measure, and Wig
orous prosecution of the war for the over
throw of the rebellion, we think that
conventions are necessary as the best
means to mite the whole union sentimeu
on good men.
Therefore the above language, coming as
it does from our old Senator, is calculated
to do an injury to the union cause, and is
very exceptionable OBSERVER.

TaE North Caroliniaus use the habeG,
corpus to lid their home guards of the I'M.
pleasant work of hunting desertsrs, which
provokes the Richmond Di,pateG to say:
1--WE begin to be tired of the hG5eas cor
pu'; it is the great organ and engine OF
every sort of skulkipg, disaFectiOn and
treason. BY it are obtained fraudulent
discharges from the army, summary en-
largement of spies, traitors and instigators
Of desertion. Nobody profits by It but
some few lawyers, and these lawyers them
selves ought to be in the army non 0Bstahte
hG6eas eOyPnG. Nobody will be surprised
that the habsas corpus is q great favorite
with that rotten portion Of the people of
North Carolina called buHaloes. They are
always raising new cases upon that eternal
writ, and rely upon 1t for the success Of all
their grand and petty treasons. II appears
that their chief solicitude is now to shield
the deserters under that great egis and
palladium of liberty"

Editors Intetligencer I:
Will you be SO good Us to give this a
place in your paper that justice may be
done, and that the people who are inter
ested in the truth may know that the
charges which we see in the Fairmont
National of the 10th inst, against the Hon.
VIM. G. Brown, as having said in Barbour
county "that this rebellion could never be
put down by 6ghdng-that some adjust
ment must finally be made" Aud the ar
ticle winds up by saying that "both the
letters who represent Barbour and Upshur
counties in the Legislature are willing to
testify to the same thing" We must say
that We cannot testify to the above lan-
guage as having been used by Mr.. Brown
in Upshur county. We do not remember
that the word rebellion" was used by him
on the occasion alluded to in that sense.
We do not deem it necessary to enter
into the particulars of what was said, but
suffice it to say that the language used by
Mr.. Brown in our hearing could not right
fully be construed to have the meaning as
conveyed by the Fairmont National. With
due respect for justice we feel compelled
to make this statement.
Very respectfully yours, &C.,
Tr JOSEPH TETER,
