Some Things That are Disgusting.

To hear small editors who are neither Sol
onions nor Heroes, boast that they never hes
itated nor wavered about this or that, and
blowing the silly blast of their own self-con-
ceit-that for FIVE months, the small editor
conducted the only journal in the Stase, which
openly and boldly opposed the nefarious de-
vice of the call of Convention; that others
were advpcatiag it, and there are in this place
one Of them, whom no doubt the small editor
considers in the way, o5stucting his SAN
shine-did so own up to the election that he
was right all the time-that no voter should
now be without the Spectator" This last is
the key to all the Boosting. The Spectator
wants money SO badly, that he is willing to
make it in the worst of all ways, [having
gassed about his circulation until the whole
thing has become ridiculous), by villifying
his ncighbors. We should like to know if
the Spectator was right when he domiciled
himself in the enemy's lines during the war.
That was. very conservative policy indeed,
but did not help much to save Virginia from
/" Radical or negro rule" Was he right
when he was very arroneously calling on all
Conservatives to stay away from the polls
Thus, with a majority of $4,000 registered
voters in Virginia, leaving everything in the
hands of the radicals and negroes. We think
this unerring mortal repented of this policy
before he got throug. Was this right, when
he opposed the call Of the Convention,
when that man whom gentlemen delight
to honor, General Robert E. Lee, who fought
IN his own lines while the small Editor
was out of them, thought the convention
ought to be held and so yentured to ad-
wise his couhtrynen. True the result showed
that the convention was inevitable. Now the
white registered vote greatly exceeded the
blacks in number. And by proper crgani-
zation and full turn out the conservative
element had every reasonable hope of elect
ing conservative convention, now that by
the advice of the small editor and his aid
the election went by default and resulted in
filling the capital with a disgraceful set of
animals who never could have gotten there
if the conservatives had voted their strength.
But 'sthe Spectator is riyht.aN the tinss."-
Conservatives fork over your half dollars.
His wise counsels may succeed in keeping
you away from the polls again when the tug
comes. Such things are disgusting.
