FLUSHING, o., May 2s, 1867.

To The Editor of The Belmont Chronicle:
SIR-Not long since an article appear
ed in the columns of the CHRONICLE,
signed by o. S. Holloway, member of
the Central Committee for Flushing
Township, and denouneing as false a
statement in the st. Claifsviile Gazette
to the effect that Flushing Township
had gone partially Democratic at the
recent Spring election.
This deninciation was promptly met
by the Gazette with an emphatic reitera-
tion of its former statement, and even
went so far as to eulogize the Township
Clerk for his firm fidelity to the Demo-
cracy; when thefact is that the present
Township Clerk was regularly nomina-
ted and elected by the Union Party of
our Township. This reiteration of the
first statement of the Gazette stands at
present tuncontradicted, whether by the
Indifference of Mr.. Holloway or the in
controvertible nature of the Gazette's
charges we are unable to say; but GER
tain il is that something is rotten In Den
mark" II it is possible we have a Judas
Iscariot among us, who would kiss the
lips of loyalty for a few ''pieces of silver"
let it be kiaOt0R or If tire fault is with
Mr.. Holloway, let him make amends 4;
but above all let us know whether or not
a successful confidence game has been
played in the loyal Township of Flush
Ing by the fawning sycophancy OF an
office-hungry rebel. FAIR PLAY.

The PRESENTS a favorable time to in
crease the circulation of THE CHRoN-
IcLE. We are about entering upon one
of the most important, and, to all ap-
pearances, the fiercestpolitical campaign
ever conducted in Ohio. Our old ad-
versaries will put forth every effort to
defeat the Union Party; and if, con-
scious of our strength, we are not equally
vigilant, they may succeed in localities.
The Cause, for which so many of the
best and bravest of the land have toiled,
and fought, and died, calls upon every
Union man to do his whole duty. One
of the most important duties devolving
on the Union men of Belmont County is
q thorough circulation of The CHRoN-
ICI.E. New York or Cincinnati papers
may be very good in their places, but
they cannot fight our battles in Belmont
County.

THE WEATHER.-The season in this
latitude has been extraordinarily cold
and wet. Yesterday, however, the sun
came out in all its pristine glory, and
gave us foretaste of what is to follow
during the ensuing three months. The
day was oppressively hot, and made
flannels uncomfortable and linens de-
sirable. May it continue!
We had very heavy rain last night
and some pretty sharp lightning. The
weather continues warm, and is very
propitious for the corn and other crops.
