RADICAL LIES. How this world is given to
lying particularly the Radical Abolition
portion of it, and most particularly FonNEy,
alias Fdoney, alias the Dead Duck" the
editor of the Washington Chronicle, Secretary
to the United States Senate, and one Of the
leaders Of the destructive gang who are bent
on running the country. The following article
appeared in late number of the Washing
ton CAronicle-was copied into the Baltimore
American, a paper Of the same kidney, and,
no doubt, would be certified by Senator CREs.
WELL, if called upon
DIsLoyALTY AT ROCKVILLE, MAINLAND
Rockville Mary land, evidently needs recon
structing, if we are allowed to Judge from the
actions Of the pardoned Rebelsin that locality.
Daily the discharged soldiers Of the national
army, and friends OF the Government are
subjected to abuse and outrages from returned
Rebels and their sympathizers. Recently a
soldier Of the Union army, on his return from
church, was assaulted and stoned by party
of cx-Rebels, who accused him of being the
enemy offhe South. On another occasion
colored man, passing quietly down the main
street of that place, was attacked ny TWO
graybacks,'' and in self-defence wounded
one Of them, whereupon he was beset by q
and held in confinement, having protected
himself.
The latest information received from this
quarter is to the effect that on last Sunday,
the preacher Of the NJ. f. Church, Rev. Mr..
Hobbs, appointed by the Northern Conference,
was attacked by Rev. Mr.. Gilbert, designated
by the Southern Conference to fill that APP
pointment. Those present in the Church re-
present that, after the singing of the hymn
nd oil Of l.on inn Mr.
bert interrupted the exercises by attempting
to eject from the building the regular preacher,
but was expelled himself. Nothing dannted,
he started in search of some Southern friends,
and was on the point Of making further de-
monstration, when company of United States
cavalry came to the rescue, and prevented
them from carrying cut their design.
From the above article, we may learn the
nature of the infamous lies concerning the
South, with which the NORTHERN papers are
stuffed, to fire the Abolition soul and keep
up the loyalty of the faithful at fever heat
There is not single word of truth in the
whole article; not n particle big enough ID
hang lie upon. Let FoRNEY apply to the
most determined Radicals in the village and
they would not venture to endorse one word
of his statement; let him apply to the Rev
Mr.. HoBBs, and he would be bound to say thai
Il came from the father Of lies, which is the
Devil. In the first place, there is not single
discharged soldier of the national army in the
village; no soldier returning from church was
assaulted or stoned no negro soldier was
attacked, nor was any one wounded by this
imaginary being Mr.. GILBERT and Mr.. HOBBS
had no fight in the church, and, in fact, Mr..
GILBERT authorizes US to say that he has not
seen Mr.. HoBBs since February and, thank
fortune, we have had no United States cavalry
amongst US for six or eight months. As TO
the loyalty of the people, they will never take
lessons from such as FoRSEy and his crew ;
but they sincerely wish success 10 President
JoHSsos's plan OF Reconstruction, as means
Of securing the liberty and prosperity Of the
whole country.
