FIVE DOLLARS PREMIUM |!

One of the "best workers" in the
Butternut ranks, met man in the
corporation last week, and ap-
preached him in a very peculiar
way. Thinking that the man loved
money better than honor, we But
ternut offered to give him fce DOL
lars if he would vote the Butternut
ticket; and offered him a contract
for the campaign, at five dollars
apiece for all the Union men he
would procure to vote the Butter
nut ticket. Ye Union man, not
feeling disposed to accept bribe,
and not knowing any loyal men
who would sell their votes, con-
cluded that the contract would be
"bad egg"-and not feeling under
any obligation to keep the matter
quiet, "blowed" it on the street.
The Butternuts are so pure and
Virtuous, that one would hardly
think they would get down to open
bribery, yet they do sometimes,
nevertheless! ***.

For the Record.
A CARD.
MIR. EDITOR:


I notice in the last issue of your paper,
that Fl. Q. Jones, the mouth-piece, the do
er of the dirty work Of the Radicals OF
Vinton County, charges me with incom-
potency and inability to perform the du-
ties of Auditor. Now, that is lie, for |
can make settlements with the Treasurer,
or do any other business connected with
the Office, and that is more than he can do,
provided he does happen to be Assistant
Auditor for FELTON,. Every person that
knows anything about the office, knows
that every Auditor of the County, has had
an allowance for Clerk hire, and that is all
/ ever asked for. Any other assistance
ever had, was always paid for out of my
own pocket. He also charged that swore
men and boys to run away or resist if
drafted, and that dare not deny 1t. That
is lie do dare deny it, anG did dare to
tell him that any man who said so was
liar.
Oh well, he replied, don't know any
thing about it. This is his way, always
saying something about that of which he
knows nothing. suppose his wild, imag-
NATIVE, conquring, morbid brain prompted
him to write what he did for the purpose
of defeating me at the coming election.-
lie says, remember to vote for loyal, hon
est tcompetent men. Does he mean that l
am dislOyal, dishonest and incompetent?
Has he ever studied the meaning of these
words, and does he not know that they
are very grave and serious charges for ne
man to prefer against another. So far rs
the question of loyalty is concerned,
consider myself just as loyal as he ever
was, and more so at this time, for heard
him say, but q few weeks ago, that she
would sooner vote for jeff Davis than for
President johnson, the accidental Presi-
dent" IAN acc ident of God, rs the Rump
Congress party say and l am prepared to
prove it. Voters of Vinton County, has
he not placed himself in a ridiculous po-
sition, and is he not beautiful specimen
of humanity?
Smart lawyer, as he thinks he is, to set
himself up as q judge of loyalty, after
making such declaration as that! He
has so long done the dirty work of the
Radicals of this County, that he has be-
come calOus to every instinct of decency
and manliness. l only notice him now,
because he has SO persistently lied about |

Whisky and Ignorance, No. 2.

WHISKY ana Ignorance, No. =.
That young fsllOao who is trying
to make himself notorious by abus-
ing the old citizens of this commu-
nifty, through the columns of the
Record, did very bright thing in
the way of column of personal
abuse and SANDER, in last issue.
He says John Robbins is "noto
rious for an unnatural appetite for
'Paddy's eye-water;' by which, he
wishes this community to under
stand that Robbins drinks much
"tangle-foot whisky" This com
munity knows John Robbins too
we'll 10 believe any such SANDER.
Robbins is "notoriously" a temper
ate, upright young man.
But, why does the Copperhead
attack our candidates in any such
wayl Why does he lie to abuse
better men than himself? Now,
we say, in all candor, that we have
made no personal war upon the
candidates on the Copperhead tick
et-what we have said, has only
referred to their official andpoliti.
cal status. Where have we written
personal abuses About whom?-
We referred to the defalcation of
Henry Reynolds, Treasurer. "Tax-
payer" wrote of that six months
ago. Judge Craig admitted it,
What else have we said of Rey-
nolds' Nothing, save that he is a
Butternut. And what have we
said of Moore, candidate for AUDI
tor' We said, and he admitted to
us, that it was true, that he was a
"SoN OF LIBERTY" We charged
that the county paid an attorney
$50 for making his (Moore's) set
tlement with the Treasurer in 1865.
We can prove that the attorney
done it In less than eight hours
Call it Clerk hire, if you please |!
Ten Dollars per hour is high-priced
clerk hire ! Moore'S incompetency
compelled the county to pay it.
Have we ever referred to Moore's
personal matters in any unmanly
manner?
AS to your candidate for Sheriff,
J. J. Shockey, we did say he had
been careless of the jail--that Ma
ley Thompson "did not displace a
brick, or cut bar, or pick a lock-"
Dare JEFF. say to the contrary 3
Well, that's public, official conduct,
to which we have right to refer.
Have We ever said anything else of
hlmg Did we ever refer to the
MARY LOGAN matter, within his OF.
fetal province, and alike disgrace
full to him and the Jail? Have we
ever spoken of the affidavit she
wished to file to bring an action of
bastardy against jeff? Dare you
deny these things, gentlemen9 If
they are not true, Jeff.'s party
friends have lied about him most
shamefully. Besides, the manner
in which she was spirited away in
the night, by those interested in
her hasty departure, confirms this
community in the belief of his
guilt. He and his friends have
been trying to shift this matter on
to others, but shifts are useless in
the case. We have heard that the
Sheriff has made some serious
threats against us, in connection
with our reference to him. We
care nothing about threats OF blood;
blood, in this case, has been sought
for in vain!
Now, gentlemen, you had better
not throw stones, while you live in
glass houses! ##+.

The Retsrned Confederate.

( The latest aud perhaps the last iocome,
returned Confederate, was in this city
Saturday, direct from the lale enemy's
prisons.
His experience since the surrender has
been both eVeuIful and usgic. Soon af-
Ter The termination Of the war he was.
with other prisoners ., JohnsOn's Island,
liberated, but was not furnished with
transportation. Being without money,
he was al loss now 10 get TO his home,
which is in Augusta county in this State,
nine miles from Slaunion. He, however,
made his way into Indiana, afoot. and in
passing through a town OF that State,
wsnl into hotel, thinking he might meet
with some one who would give him as
sistance. A number of men were al the
bar drinking. among ihem Federal OFF,
Ger. who was talking about the war, and
among other things, said that he had ia
4 Ell an oath to kill every one of Ashby's
men he ever met with. WIlhou, stop
ping TO weigh the consequences our re-
urned hero spoke up, on the impulse OF
lhe moment, and said "he was one OF
Ashby's men" The officer al once
drew a pistol and fred on him three
times, each ba!I taking effect, but not IN
vital points. Our COME iederAie, like
wounded lion, rushed on him, wrenched
the weapon from his grasp and shoT the
officer dead with the remaining ball.
The Confederate was arrested, thrown in
prison, where be suffered long months OF
confinement, and it was only very recent
ly that he was brought 10 trial which re-
suited in his final acquiItal. He then
started again for home, and reached tere
Saturday, morning by the Tennessee train.
He stopped at the Norvcli House, where
he was recognized by gentlemen who
knew him and vouched for his respecta-
bllty and reliability. He also bad with
bin copy of the records in the iria!
properly authenticated, corroboranng his
statements. lie was furnished with ss-
sislance and started for his home Sunday
morning. His name is simpson, aud he
was member of Ashby's command,
while that knlghtly chieltain rode his
wondrous rounds, and vas the first TO
reach hls noble form when lie fell. Thus
has perhaps tie last "rebel' IN gray.
come back TO hls home. save the long, list
of those who sleep in the "blvouac Of tho
dead" who will return neever again TO
the homes for which they fought 80 well.
