Hon. j. B. Blair.

This gentleman, having gone into the
caucus at Moundsvile and received the in
dorsement of the clique, whose creature
that caucus was, is now fairly before the
people as candidate for Congress. Per-
sonally, Mr.. BLAIR may be clever gentle
man. "fond of oysters" and all that, but we
have failed to discover wherein he has
shown any of the qualities of statesman,
or in what he has shown devotion beyond
other men to the cause of his county
His record in the last Congress is one, GER
tainly marked with no great degree OF
ability; and one Of which few men would
be proud, in fact, we believe he has him

lists that he was mistaken when he voted

of time," could lean towards the Northern
despot, against Great Britain, our so called
mother and France, our some time ally?-
Well, possible or not, we did it, We clos

that there exists in Russia the same active

What Does 1t Mean


Der of the ST. Clairsvile Gazette, and ask
with the editor of that paper, what does il
mean? From his unjusti6able expressions
and odious discrimina tions, Collector HORN
BROOK is doing more to injure the city o.
Wheeling than would fire or the visitation
Of pestilence:
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
A few days ago Mr.. George Brown 81
this place, went to Wheeling, as has been
his custom for many years, for TIE purp ,sc
Of repIenishing hie stock of Jewelry; Nc
lions, &c. Among other things he wished
to purchase few pistols. The merchant
with whom he deals told him that he would
be obliged to procure permit. Mr.. Brown
then called at Collector Hornbrook's office
and made his wishes known. Mr.. Horn
b. ook informed him that no man scto agouid
sell to a Tallandigham man could hare a
permit. Mr.. Brown left Wheeling, and
made an order upon business house in
another city, and without permit or hind
rance procured the articles he desired
Mr.. Brown is we'll and faSorably known
in this community, and has been for many
years to the business men of Wheeling, and
elsewhere as worthy and upright citizen
and cautious and discreet man.
We would like to know Of Mr.. Collector
Hornbrook where he gets his authority for
this kind Of interference with other peoples
business. We know of no power in this
government, either State or Federal, that
can confer such right to interfere with
the legitimate concerns of the people. We
apprehend that if this affair shall be looked
into it will be found that this whole thing
is bare assumption of arbitrary power by
Mr. Hornbrook If this is not SO, why is
il that such articles can be procured in
other cities than Wheeling without permits
or any sort of hindrance2 Why is it that
Democrats are the persons selected who
are not permitted to purchase firearms e
The Constitution and the laws make no such
distinctions between our citizens. The
Constitution Of the United States says:
1.-The right of the people to keep and
bear arms shall not be intringed"
1t does not say that Black Republicans
may bear arms, but Democrats shall not as
Mr. HornbrOok says. But why quote the
Constitution or read the law? You might
as we'll read the Bible to the veriest Infidel
in the land as the Constitution or the law
to Black Republican.
II it is not the intention of those in pow
err ito arm one portion of the community
while another portion shall be left defence.
less, why is il that such man as Mr. |
Brown is iuterfered with in his regular and |
legitimate business?
