Bowen, "haul down that Haunting
lie !" as also that other, in the edi-
torial heading of your paper, to
wit: " Official paper of Vinton
County" If the Sheriff's and
Clerks printing constitutes the of,
fetal business of the county, then
you might, with propriety, make
the assertion that you do. But, as
the Record has the balance OF the
printing, we say-haul down that
other Haunting lie, while you are
about it.

j. Wilkes Booth and His Diary.

We published yesterday, as an
exclusive telegraphic dispatch,
which was sent to no other West
ern paper, the celebrated, and
much talked-of dairy found upon
the person of j. Wilkes Booth after
he was killed in Maryland. The
Secretary of war, who opposed the
publication to the very last, was
overruled by the President, who
was determined that the public
curiosity in this matter should be
gratifed. Whether this is all the
diary that was taken-whether it
was, or was not, mutilated by per.
sons connected with the Govern
ment-will probably never be
known. One thing is certain: any
thing which went into the hands
of Baker and Conger, and was long
retained in custody of such persons
as Stanton and Holt, may be justly
looked upon with suspicion, for
their whole conduct in office, and
especially that connected with Mr..
Lincoln's assassination, proves that
they are restrained by no consider
ations Of honesty or honor in order
to compass their ends.
This production of Booth, as well
as the famous letter which he left
with his brother-in-law in Pennsyl-
vania, is invested with melan-
choly interest, and throws much
light upon his character and upon
the motives which led him 70 COM
NIT his desperate deed. 1t tappears
certain that the original plan was
to capture, and not to kill; and that
Booth, suddenly, and of his own
volition, changed 1T into tragedy
without consultation with Other
parties who might have been privy
to the original intention. AS tax
ing away much of the conspiracy
part of the business, and making il
more the individual act of Booth
the monutrosity of the military
Commission, and its murder Of Mrs
Surratt, are more clearly seen; ant
for that reason, among others, Stan
ton, Holt & Co., who had called
that Commission into being were
opposed 10 the publication.
Booth would appear, at first sigh
to be the last man to have perform
ed such a bloody part in the histo
ry of the country. He was no pol.
itician, and had never been dlstin
guished or noted in any of the con
tests of opinion, either before Of
during the war. He had no tie to
bind him to the South, and to it ir
no form did he owe allegiance. AL
his interests,professional and other
wise, and the bulk of his friends
were in the Northern cities. He
struck his blow from no mercenary
or sordid considerations. He was ir
the flower Of youth, was gifted with
beauty and genius, and apparently
had before him brilliant prospects
in life. Tearing himself away from
all earthly attractions, which, in
his case, we've so strong, and fore
going all personal advantage, he
sacrificed every thing upon the al
tar OF a mistaken-te terribly mistak
en-conviction of duty to his cour
try. He had studied attentively
and earnestly the stories of Brutul

The Gcrnlan Vote.

The German, in nine cases out Of ten, when
he arrives in America, is Democrat. HIS
affinities are with popular institutions, and the
Democratic party heretofore has generally en-
jOyed his support. The "Anzeiger dcs West
ens," leading German paper, published In
St. Louis, says that up to the Presidential cleo
ton of 1856, nine-tenths Of the German citl-
zens, and those of German descent, belonged
to the Democratic party. The slavery Ques-
ton alono alienated them from their former
political associates, and they Joined the Repub-
licans, with whom they had nothing else IL
common. The Germans love liberty and hate
slavery in every form or shape; but they never
learned 10 worship the black idol; and' Win
scarcely an exception, ere born foes to furi-
tunism When, therefore, the negro was enan-
clpated, and Republicanisln came TO SIGNIFY
intolerance under its proteau guises, the leu

"ture and education, and barely freed from
s.the bonds of slavcry-in the government of
"this country, and the exclusive rule over one
{. third of the States of this Union, is q ques-
:. ton of an entirely different character. We
:. have not the least doubt that an immense
:. majority Of tho Germans are opposed to the
unconditional right of suffrage to be given to
.tho negroes. At all events, it is certain that
"only very imperceptible fraction OF the
"Germans would, for the sake of the success
"of the negro suffrage programme, take into
othe bargain all the other folles and crimes OF
s.that party, which they entered exclusively
"for the purpose of abOlishlng slavery and pre-
"serving the Union
These views are held by the Germans OF
Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Minnesota and' In
fact, of oil the Western States. They all pro-
test against negro suffrage and equality ana
declare they will not accept them, nor act with
Il party which wishes to mako the negro their
equal at the ballot box and in the halls of legls
lation.
