The scurviest Trick.

I'D Ourtxpcsurc of the mf an and dishonor>
able trick played by the Radical leaders in
this county, assisted by those of other
counties, on the night previous to the Oc
tnbor electi,n, has the same effect on our
nelghbor Of the Republican that the full,
faced "silver neon has upon confirmed
luuatie. His wrath breaks forth in lamen-
iations and invectivo equalto that of Peter
when the Jewish maiden pressed him too
hard with pertinent questions. ~.gt p
but we did not think our neighbor would
tcli poatire ia 'sohood to screen his friends
from the condemnation which they so rich
y deserve from all honorable men. The
tssease of falsehood is an intention TO de-
ceiue. This our neighbor does, when he
says that fraudulcntly printed tickets were
voted at the October election in Short
Greek or Cadiz townships OfCadiztown-
ship we will say: A committee of three or
tour we're. appointed by each party to be
present when the JUICES counted cut the
votes. We were member of the commit
ice appointed by the Democrats, and every
& ballot brought from the boz passed under
our eyes. and Consequently .we knoto that
the Republican falsities when it says that
any such tickets were voted in Cadiz towns

IF our neighbor could only suedr to his
falsehoods, no doubt he would get good
wages las Conover and others did at Wash
ington on the Surratt case), at Cleveland,
to find an'indictncnt against some Demo-
cratic Probate Judge. We hope that hi,
present tutership viii not lead him to that
depth of iniqaity, as there are SO many 9th
er members OF His party who Serve that
purpose. When the Radicals wish to do
those things, they can always fud the ait
asssses. IA They are cheap. In this connec
tionwc would suggest to our ncighbor, that
there are some indictments peuding at
Cleveland against persons, who are not
Probate Judges, and who are not Demo-
Gratis, and whose residence is not over a
thousand miles from Cadiz.
But, ncighbor, don't forget the, scpcy
Il trick played the night before the October
election For fear you might forget the
points. VIC reproduce the article from the
Sentinel, of last week; E So
We donot wish are neighbor to forget the
,sc1p4g trick played the night before the DC
tober election. twas not. as the 3epAbG
en- Of last week mildly draws it, warning
'1he voters of Harrison county to bev are
Of fraudulent tick cts" Bat it was assert,
iag as true that Democrats were di>tribut-
ing Republican tickets with Mr. E>iep's
Eame printed in them instead Of Mr.. Bng
hams, and hand-biIs were printed and cir
lculatel over the congressional District, so
,iageniQpsly ,oo,aed as to leave the imprs s.

iiamous method Of securing an election
81 Notonly is this so, but from the fact OF
The general diffusion of this Infamous false
hood ov.r the district. the impression is
Lining ground, that agents were sent over
the district before the dispatch was receiv ID
FROM New Market, thus proving conclusive
y that it was an arranged sWindle.
v Nor Is this all. In each township were
men who would, on the day of the election,
sdlemnly aver that they bud seen such tick
d, and that Democrats were quietly circu-
la,ing them. a5e'A
Triumph gained by such di,honorabIe
methods, should make the yctors feel as
ffaoaf as though they had gained by thtft.

before such dishonpr ,sp' q
