IS The, Ticket.

The unterrifide' assembled in county
Convention at the FELTON, House, on Tuesday
last. Being court time, quiet number was
about The old stagers ofthe party were
generly opposed to a ticket, but the young
bloods were in for it, and so ticket was
formed. The" chivalry -" who laughed with
gee that none but the friends below could
appreciate, when the Union arms met with
disaster at Bull Run, Big Bethel, and Ball $
Bluff, were out in force. And Convention,
engineered by men whoes faces are wreathed
in smiles when the flag of the Union is trail
led in the dust and the land is shrouded in
morning; and who wear heightened vsages
when the arms of the Republic triumph over
her foes, present ticket and ask the people
of this loyal county to vote it !! We have
heard it stated that some sound Union men
were mixed in with the Simon Pure which
compose the back bone aud ribs of the
ticket, in order to make the " charm thick
and slab"

be now, at all times, and anywhere in the
State, and none but 4 confirmed Copperhcad
will intimate the contrary. Mr.. Mallit com
pares slavery with horses, and farms, and
enquiries whether, after man has enjoyed
this latter species of property certain
length of time, it would be just to take it
from him, and adds: "And yet these
cases are parallel to that of Emancipation
without compensation whether gradual or
sudden" The long and short of Mr.. Maj
fits story is this; he is beyond hope, welded
TO slavery. He believes it divine institu-
TOMAS much so as horses and farms, and
he is opposed to gradual Emancipation, or
sudden Emancipation compensated Eman
cipation, or any other kind of Emancipa-
ton and is opposed to Constitutional
Convention because he says it would inaug
rate Emancipation in full blast in the
State"
The unkindest cut of all was the resolu
ton passed at the Republican meeting in
Elkton " on the 9th inst. This charges him
with "persistent abuse of the National
Administration" which he dcnounces as
false, and gives as a reason that no one
" can safely criticise, pithom abuse the acts
Of the Administration" which, in plain
English, means he would heartily join in the
Copperhead cry, and defamation of the
Government, if he dared. One of his few
followers, short time ago, declared that
80 Il
tism on earth"
And again that patronizing of Rebel
newspapers which the Convention charges
Mr.. Maffit with. He says" could i. be
clifton papers whose columns are weekly
filled with abuse of, and falsehood against
me?" Whether this charge be true or false,
we leave every man to enjoy his own opin-
ion, but one thing is proverbially true that
9" Birds of n feather
Flock together"
Hence We find Mr.. MafIit coquctting with
the Secesh journals.
When his patriotismis tried by the touch
stone of loyalty whether he will accept
Union or slavery, when the breach between
them has become irreparable, we find him
ready to accept slavery and let the Union
slide"
Mr.. Mafft further attempts to justify his
support of Rebel papers, by styling the
Union papers of the State Abolition papers.
These Abolition papers elected him two
years ago. They were all right then. He
accuses The Uhig with leading in the divi-
sion of the Union party We have never
admitted that there is division in the party.
Mr.. Matfit attempted to make one, but fail
ing in that he commenced counting the Sc
cession vote of the State, He is welcome
to it, and the majority of the people prefer
ring Goldsborough and Emancipation, to
Mr.. Maffit and the negro incubus system
which has trod, with its Moloch foot, for
years, the life out of our State, they will be
swept away as fossils of Maryland's dark
age, and his epithets in styling the masses
and their organs Abolitionists, by way of
oprobrium, will meet with their just reward
from those masses, at the polls, in Novem.

A Pair of Them.

As an act of personal friendship we pub lish
the lengthy address of Mr. Touchstone on our
outside page this week. although the address"
has been read ere this, by all who have the Gu
rosity to peruse it, it having been published in
The Democrat last week. We need make no
review of the article. Every personal friend of
MIR. Iouchstone will feel sorrow that he has
been SO easily wiled away from the support ofhis
country, and used by faction to try to effect the
organization of party in the interest of slavery,
and hence, in the interest of the rebellion. 1t is
evident that Mr.. Touchstone doesn't understand
what he is writing about, or know to whom he
addresses himself. The people of Ceci. county
who have been in the habit of giving some at
tention to political matters will doubtless re-
member that some two years since OF upwards,
that MIR. Tombstone and Mr.. Maffit, whose AZ
ticles stand side by side in the columns of last
weeks Democrat, could not find dcnuncatory
language strong enough to apply TO The Cecil
Democrat. That paper has kept on the even
tenor of its ways. 1t has never protested to
make any change in its views Then why this
bowling their mouths in the dust and seeking
intercourse with the party whom the Democrat
speaks for? None could have denounced the
party more strongly two years since than Messrs
Matfit and Touchstone.. If they, were "seces-
sionists and traitors " then, the constituents of
that party must be the same still, for they have
never, to our knowledge, renowned their early
beliefs. The only conclusion we can arrive at is
that the votes of those same "rebels and traitors
are wanted this Fall at the election and SEEM
ing to entertain the idea that their public
views coincide better with the secesh element
ofthe county, than with the Union policy, great
pains are taken to lay them before the former
We advise the Union men to keep their top
eye open " on this coquettery that is being at
tempted by the half-brecds ." There is some
thing rotten in Denmark" you may depend
upon it.

= We have received the present wee

We have received the present week a
private letter from Hartford, in which the writer
discourses on the Comptrollcrship in the follow
ing manner
"Mr. Goldsborough is daily gaining friends
in Hartford. His bold and consistent course in
reference to the great issues of the day chal-
lengeS the respect of even the most ardent sup
porters of Mr. Maffit. The latter gentlemen's
position is truly a peculiar one. He certainly
does not stand on the platform of his party, for
the convention which nominated him adopted a
resolution in favor of constitutional conven-
ton, and Mafit, in language too plain to be
misunderstood, opposes the calling Of conven-
ton because lie is afraid the convention will
interfere with the relation of master and slave
Ii Matit is elected, it will be by the secession
lists. His avowcd hostility to u convention
his determined opposition to emancipaion-his
official patronage Of the rebel press Of the State,
to the exclusion of the loyal, has caused hum
dreds, who were his supporters in June, to con-
denim him now. The true Union men of the
State are rallying, as one man, to Goldsbor-
ough's standard, and trust lie will be elected"

= The readers of The UHtg last wee

- The readers of The UAig last week
were doubtless edited by the TRADE of Mr..
Manit for which we loaned him our columns
in order that the very act might rcfute his
accusations, of unfairness toward him, on
our part. We have always believed that the
people had but to understand the policy Of
Mr.. Matfit and those who act with him, tC
discard and condemn his slavery doctrines
and hence, have been ever ready to prompt.
ly tender him the use of our columns, YET
he complains Of misrepresentation and
abuse ~ from US, all Of which he has sub,
mitted to in silence, "trusting in the good
sense of your readers " he remarks, "to
place proper estimate upon what your col
umns contained.' Singularly enough, we,
too, have trusted to the same good sense Of
our readers, never for q moment doubling
the justice Of their final judgment upon Mr..
Mathis course, which judgment will be rem
dered on the 4th of November against him
and his policy.
With what show of plausibility can Mr..
Mafit charge us with misrepresentation
columns? In the few comments we have
made upon his political course, and persist
ent wrong headedness, we have ever done
him justice, by quoting his own language,
not in garbed manner as he alleges, but
SO as to give his whole meaning. We have
always wished the people to understand his
policy thoroughly, knowing that they will
condemn it. But Mr.. Maffit informs us
that he has always avoided engaging in con-
troversy with US On account of impaired
health, and a conviction that it would not
"Add to my reputation"
Refuting Mr.. Maffit's Calhoun doctrines on
the slavery question is the last and least
means we would ever think of employing to
build up 4" reputation"
Long suffering martyr that Mr.. NJ. is, he
is at last driven to the necessity of MOTTO
ing an item published in your paper of the
10th Of September, wherein you give q list
Of persons whom you classify as supporters
of Mr.. Goldsborough on the ono hand and
of myself on the other" Mr.. Mafit here
asks if we knew Of the position of Gov
ernor Bradford when we published that arti-
Gle. Certainly we knew of Gov. Bradford S
policy on the emancipation question, and n
Constitutional Convention, and finding that
his Excelency's views on those great and
leading measures of the present political
campaign in Maryland so widely different
from those Of Mr.. Mafit, We were warranted
by every dictate Of common sense and con-
sistency on the part of Governor Bradford,
to place Kim on the side of Mr.. Goldsboro'
with whom he agreed on the questions of
Emancipation and Constitutional Conven-
vention; and against Mr.. Maffit with whose
policy he emphatically disagrees If Gov
ernor Bradford is surprised as he
indicates to Mr. Mafft in the letter which
the latter quotes in his article published
