SLAEDER,-I1h immaculate Christians %
who carry the Copperhead party OF this
county in their breeehss pockets, put forth,
at the latest possible day in the campaign, a
bIasphemous and indecent slander On Cap
tain DYER, Affirming that he was an infIdel,
etc, This Captain DYER refuted IN the only
way he could at so late an hour, by circu-
lar over his own signature, denying the
charges made. The infamy Of such a low
trick to damage candidate received the
contempt and scOrn Of our people, and it is
not perceptble that Capt. DYER lost any
votes by it. But it is proper the public
should yet know that one Of the candidates
on the Copperhead county ticket is an out
spoken ranting and blasphemous inhdel,-
Nor is It known by anybody that some 9TH
eF Of their late candidates ia this county are
model Christians, or that the individuals
uOtOriously recognized as leaders ofthe Cop
perhead party in this county are spotless in
their private character. But we refrain at
present.

land, F. Black, and d. Elliott The assurance
Of the Copperhead Association in demand
ing ''an equal division Of the spOIIs, mean
ing the SOeiety's printing, is beautiful 1t is
quite natural that when there are any
'spOils" to be divided a Copperhead should
be on hands clamOring for his share, but
when this same Copperhead travels about
the county denOuncing the Agricultural
Society in political speeches and advising
the people to stay away from its Fair and
attend a VaIandigham meeting instead, it
is beautiful impudence for him to come in
afterwards with his claim for an equal share
Of the Society's printing. Yet this is pre-
cisely what the Democratic Association in
the person of its 1op-eared abortionist has
done as we can prove.

TIE COLLEsE FLaAG.-The students Of the

was not displayed during the vaHandig-

and leadership ended In abortion. It is
right that majority OF the students should
govern in such q matter, and a majority Of
about so over . is pretty emphatic. II
should be said however, that the students
were willing to let the nag be displayed dur
ing any ordinary Democratic meeting, but
at one gotten up for and in honor Of yaHan-

the Democracy took possession Of the Col

L0eAL NOTIeEs,

Cox's REFRIGERATION COFFIN
This coffin, which has been referred to
several times in these columns lately,
Is not intended for burial purposes,
but fer preserving ooFpses in warm
weather. It consists of a double case
with two ice chests-one at each end,
which are connected by air chambers,
passing beneath the Slated frame up
on which the body is placed. The case
Is made double with the space between
the sides filed with a conducting
substance. Messrs. A. A Welch &
Son now have one ready for use, and
all persons who have occasion to use
It in preserving the bodies of their de-
ceased friends, while awaiting burial,
