ANOTHER FALsEHOOD.

The Virginia Union comes out one day
with set of charges, which are the next
day denied by the parties attacked, under
oath. The next day, and day after day,
appear straws from hay-yards' and votes
taken in groggeries and stores. These are
successfully proven to be false. Charges
are made that the proprietors of that paper
are disloyal, and these charges are sub
stantiated by affidavit. The Union replies
with scurrility and abuse of the deponent.
This mornings issue contained what pur-
ported to be communication from a
printer, in which appears the following !:
"The Junior 1 observed in Gold Hill yes
terday, endeayoring TO secure an affidavit
from one of your former employees; but that
person stoutly refused to swear to anything
Tor them. He told the junior a lot Of trash,
which was overheard, and no doubt the En-
terprise folks will give you good scorching
pretty soon on the strength Of this gentle
mans statement"
The only "former employee" of the
Union with whom "the junior" CMc-
Carthy) talked at all on that occasion,
was D. N. Sandidge, composition in this
office. Sandidge authorizes us to assert
that the statement contained in. the above
extract is false in every particular. whether
received from printer or manufactured
by the editor of the Union. 1t certainly
looks suspicious that the propnetors Of
that paper should, if innocent, fear the
revelations which might be made by a
"former employee" who is upon terms Of
friendship with them, and who has no
animosity to crafty by making injurious

came in the evening, too late to take their
subject to market. SO they took lodgings
at Mr.. Wimbles hotel, on Mill street -
They took broad bed and put the substi-
tute between them to sleep, so that he
might not escape. They were iatigued
and slept too soundly. While they were
dreaming OF the large sums they were to
realize from the sale OF the " pub," " he was
plotting an escape and succeeded. Herose
Carefully from bed, took tho wallet OF one

they were much chagrined to find the
