It il understood that so far in the con-
situations and manipulations prelimina-
nv to the convention, jeff Davis, through
his agents at the Clifton House, has had
smore influential part than any "dem-

line; that many northern leading "dem-

southern masters more abjectly If posi-
BILE, than when the latter were not in
open treason and rebellion against the
government.
Now, If anything were needed to open
the eyes of the loyal people to the true
character and tendency of this latter-day
democracy, the facts above stated ought
to be all-sufficient. The men still in the
so-called " democratic" ranks who really
desire to be loyal to the Union, ought to
see at length, whittier the current of
this false democracy is taking them.
jeff. Davis and his co-traitors are
avowedly fighting for the destruction OF

accomplish whatever may be damaging

government, whatever may help to en-
gulf our country in disaster and ruin

Editors LateIIigeneer:


Through the columns Of your widely
circulating paper, l desire to call the atten-
ton Of the voters of the State of West
Virginia 70 the great importance Of know
ing we'll who they cast their votes for at
the approaching election on the 27th last.
I know that the loyal voters of the State
desire only 70 vote for good loyal meni men
that are sound on the Union question and
ardent friends of our new State. Yet cir
cumstanees have recently occurred, con-
Vincing me, at least, how easy it is TO be
deceived, and of the fact that all men pro-
Tossing loyalty aud their lOVe-for our new
State, are mot what they have professed to
be, but in some instances after getting
into office have proved they were wolves
10 Sleeps clothing. Hence the timely warn
.ingI now give. A large majority of the
voters of Preston do not only profess to be
tVue and loyal men, but ever since our
present difficulties began, have evidenced
their loyalty by votes and the number Of
brave volunteers whom they have sent into
the army in the defence of the Government.
But, as loya as We are, and as careful as
We have endesvored to be in electing men
TO Office, We have been sold; We have been
cheated; we have been deceived. We re-
Gently, with the aid of Mongolia and Tay-
counties, elected John ]. Brown, of Pres
ton county, to the State Senate, aud we
elected him, as we were induced by him to
believe, to be good loyal man, and, as
such, friend to our new State.
But alas, where do We find him noW7
Tell It not in Gath, Publish it not in the
streets of Askelon. When the militia were
recently at Grafton, and the vote of the
militia was taken as to their preferences
for the Presidency, and as between that
good and tried man Abraham Lincoln, the
friend of the Union, and the father and
ardent friend of our new State, and George
B. Mcclellan, who is the candidate of q
party that seeks to destroy the Union and
that not only ignores our new State, bat
would If they get into power, blotit out al
together. This Senator John ]. Brown voted
for George B. Mcclellan. For this the con-
demnation ofthe loyal people of thisSenatO-
rial district is down on him, and IL should
be. He has since removed from the cOun-
ty of Preston, and all the regret We have is
that he had not removed out of the district,
so that we could have the pleasure Of elect
ing q good loyal man iu his place. There
fore, voters Of West Virginia, my advice to
you is to be very careful, aud be well sat-
isfed that you vote for the right men for
the right place, so that after the election is
over and the candidate you voted for in
stalled in Office, you will have the satisfac-
tion of knowing you were not sold, cheat
ed or deceived. Yours, truly,
Oct. 18th, 1864, PREsToN.
