Contradiction.

In an editorial in last weeks SPIRIT, we no.
tice, the editor las spread himself very much
on the Mccormick Reapers In reply we arc
sorry TO say that We must contradict him in
most of his remarks; and we are prepared to
prove what We say both out Of and iu the field.
lie says none hold a higher position in the os-
timation of the farmer than that which enables
him to harvest bis crop with ease, which We
admit but contend that il can be done with
more ease with Woods Reaper than with Nc
Cormick's. lie again says that none have sue
cecded in carrying off the palm Of superiority
from the Pioneer in the field, lAlcCormickl.-
Now, if the editor will examine, he will find
that at the Paris Exposition, last Summer
Walter \ Woods carried of the only Prizes
awarded to American Reapers and Mowers,
and the Machine that Mccormick is harping
over was a Machine built there with Messrs.
Burgess & Kees' improvement, exhibited in his
name, and was not like that built by McCor-
mick in Chicago and sold here.
He again says the Mccormick Reaper has
more than held its own wherever introduced,
which we deny, as it has been run out Of the
field in every instancein Maryland. Although
we admit that there were more Mccormick
Rcapers sold in this County last season than
others, they lid not give as full satisfaction as
Woods, and we have reason to believe in seve-
raj cases TIE terms on which they were sold
was more thought of than the Reaper, as is the
case at this time.
he again saws whoever has tried this ma
chine was content and did not want any other.
This we deny. and we know that the editor is
aware that last season Mr.. Crttenden. near
Rippon, purchased a Mccormick Reaper. tried
it and l-aS not content until he procured a
Wood Reaper, tried Il and kept u and returned
he Mccormick, which fact has been kept very
low He again SAYS the Mccormick Reaper
is best adapted TO the uneven surface Of our
lands, which We deny, as Woods is the only
Self-Rake Reaper that has ever been intro
duced here that can be raised and lowered
while passing along.
lie SAYS the inventor Of the Mccormick is a
native Of Virginia. which We admit and are
proud Of, but be does not pretend to say that
Walter A. Wood is net native Of Virginia,
neither does be pretend to say that the State
New York; where Woods Reapers are manu-
featured is not more favorable to Virginia than
the State illinois, where Mccormick Reapers
are made.
Now, in conclusion, we viii excuse the edi-
tor little as lhaving heard him express him
self favorable to Woods Reaper. from what he
had gathered from those that used them-not
from bis own knowledge Of Reapersl we doubt
very much whether be can tell a Reaper from
q Horse Rake; and woald advise him TO have
nothing more to do with Reapers, but employ
bis spare time with Joe Chaplne, Hoke, Pitzer !

The Chicago platform.


Plank No. . in the platform constructed by
the Radical Convention at Cbicagoisas follows :
The guarantee by Congress of equal suffrage
% all loyal men at the South was demanded by
every consideration of public safety. Of graft
tule, and Of justice and must be maintained.
while the question of suffrage in all the loyal
states properly belongs 60 the people Of those
States.
We confess our inability to sec how any
honest, flir-minded man can endorse this ex-
ta7rlinary doctrine If the Southern States
are States at all, they have the same right t.
regulate the question Of suffrage within their
own limits as those Of the North. If they are
not States how is it that they are allowed to
radfy amendments to the Constitution Of the
United S,a.es--a function that can only be
exercised by a STATE The simple fact Is. the
Radical party leaders are qfrqid to declare in
favor Of negro suffrage, by actof Congress or
ohTl-isc in uine-teuths Of the So-callel loyal
States; but avajling themselves of the defence
less condition Of the South ruled by five mill
ury despots, they override the Constitution,
and by the ooerciye power Of the bayonet con-
ier upon four millions Of negroes the elective
franchise which in several of the Southern
States gives them absolute political supremacy.
Weao not believe that the intelligent and pa
'ro.c people Of this country will support any
such platform, no matter what candidates may
stand upon Washington Express.
