Matters and Things In the I'D and 3D.
Congregational Districts.
In the columns of the West Virginia Re-
publican, published at Buckhannon, Up.
shur county, we see that Messrs. AlVa Te-
ter and David 8. Pinnel, are announced as
candidates for the House of Delegates.
James NJ. Corley, of the 10th West Virginia
regiment, is announced for the State SEN
ate. VIM. D. Rollyson is also announced
for re election. R. Frethwell, the present
incumbent, and Capt. Edwin Frey, are
candidates for the Office of County Record
er. as are E. Burr and Watson Westfall for
the Office of Assessor.
The Republican has a complimentary
word for Col. Latham, the Union nominee
for Congress in that district, speaking thus
of him:
1--WE trust that the voters of this Con.
gressiopal district will not forget to vote
for this hero when the day of election ar
rives. The important service which he
has rendered to his country, and especially
to West Virginia, should secure for hin
the vote of every man. We do not claim
that he should secure their undivided sup
port, simply because of his important mil
itary services, but for the reason also, tina
he is eminently qualified for the position
in political way, possessing the soundes
and most comprehensive views on the va
rious governmental affairs of the nation a
large. In addition to all this he is who'll
and sincerely West Virginia man; FIR
and devoted advocate of the new State an
all that relates to her interest.
Lieut.. N. N. Hoffman, of Co. A, LIST W.Vs
cavalry, is candidate for the Safe Ssnat
from the county of Monongalia, as on
readers have before noticed, and it seem
that some one has been representing hir
as a Mcclellan man. The Morgantow
Post gave denial to this some days ago, an
the Republican confirms it's denial thus:
We have conversed with the Lieutenant
and do not believe there is a more uucom
promising enemy of the Chicago swindl
than Lieut.. N. N. Hoffman. He is trnl
an undoubtedly loyal a man-loyal to tn
Federal Government, and will If spared
vote on the 9th day of November next, 70
Lincoln aud johnson. The Post is RICH
in giving the lie to the report.
The Kanawha Republican comes to u
with the following piece marked in relation
to the Hon. George W. Summers. and hi
relation to the Mcclellan electoral ticke
in West Virginia:
We saw, a few days since, in the Wheel
ing Register, the announcement of Nc
Clellan Electoral Ticket, for the State o
West Virginia, at the head of which wa
placed the name of Hon. Geo. W. Summers
of this county. From what source thi
ticket emanAted we are not informed. VI
have heard of no convention or gathering o
any kind at Wheeling or elsewhere, to franz
aticket for the nominees of the Chicago Con
vention, to be voted for in this State. In
deed had supposed, inasmueh as that au.
gust assembly had utterly ignored the exis-
tepce of the State Of West va, that mo at.
tempt would be made to get up a tickle
here. However, this may be, We were al
quite surprised to see the name of the for.
mer leader of the old Wing party in this re
gion, standing at the head of the Democrat
ic ticket, and could only account for the
phenomenon upon the supposition that il
was a trick Of the democracy, in their ef-
fort At resurrection, TO help themselves as
they have done in times past, by claiming
the sanction of names which they have nc
right to. The truth is, as we are informed
Judge Summers, some ten or twelve days
since, was applied to by letter from Wheel
ing, for permission to place his name on
the Mcclellan ticket, to which he prompt
" replied, positively refusing the use of his
name for that purpose. We presume the
Judges letter had not reached Wheeling
when che publication of the ticket in the
Register was made.
If the Democracy are in earnest in put.
