| When we saw in the Abolition pa pers 0
this city, fresh out burst OF Indignation
over the Democrats about the "Knights oi
the Golden Circle, )" we were satisfied tina,
as there was no such thing here, if any
where el>e, that these hypocriical rascals
were at some trick Of their own. The Fact
called on us by name, to answer honestly
whether We DID not belong to secret So
ciety OF some sort. We promptly answered
no" and then put some questions on the
other side. But not response word.
| Hearing that boxes ofarms came to this mys,
teripus order about the same time, we set to

a pretty thing it is--a very sublime spectacle
for the people OF Columbus and of Ohio to
look upon. Long will it be be lore we hear
anything more about the "Knights Of the
| Golden Circle" ... 8n.z. a...s.

The great the President, very cody
assures them that this ''oatL" does not con

question, "hat 0iH aid and assist IN elect
