The Akron AFFAIR.

The Akron City Times, speaking of
the Radical lie that a flag was carried
in the Democratic procession with the
inscription Of Seymour, Blair, and
JEFF. Davis" says: gDx.y,r
1.-THE flags borne in, the different
professions were, we believe, all
printed in this Office, and we know
and can prove by the best of witness
es, not only that no such flag as that
described in the Leaders dispatch was
ever printed here, but that no such flag
was born in the procession at all.
The charge is a deliberate lie, gotten
up for party effect, and as a sort OF
pretext for the commencement of the
disgraceful outreges committed by the
Radical roughs on Saturday last" q 8

dressed the Club, on Wednesday eve

speeches it has been our good fortune
to listen to during the campaign.
The radical party were about as com
pletely shown up, and used up, as any
lover of our Union and Constitution
could wish, and our only regret was,
that every voter the district could
not be present to hear it. An effort
will be made to induce him to be
present at the meeting at Baconsburg,
on the evening of October the 7th., and
if successful, we can assure the citizens
of that vicinity, that there is treat in
store for them.1 .-.,.
