Tue ELECTION. 1t is earnestly hoped that
all who will be allowed to vote at the election
on Tuesday next, irrespective Of former patty
affiliations, who have tho interests and honor
OF the city county and State at heart, will 20
t. the polls aud cast their ballots for Nr. John
ston. Il Is generally conceded that the bust
ue,, It The next. will be as important Us that
OF any preceding Legislature since the State
severed her connection with England, aud when
laws are to be enacted whose provisions shall
bear directly and for years 10 oome upon every
one 10 the State, it behoOves all, whether white
or black, Conservative or Radical, to see that
those who have to make them are endowed
with the nece ssary attributes and qualifications
for good legislators; and that Mr.. Johnston
possesses these ia an eminent degree NJ one
who knows hm will deny. The two charg es
made against him, and which are intended to |
delracs from him some Conservative support, |
viz that he was instrumental in having the !
order issued for sending South Confederate
eyWpaIhizers during the war, and assisted the |
federal agents IT, cOn6scatng the property Of |
persons who were IA the Confederate service, |
have been thoroughly examined, and are found |
to be without the slighttst foundation. Mr.. |
.Iohnston's efforts were exeSed to have the |
order for banishing persons frOr Alexandria
revoked, and he was threatened with arrest for |
not giving information about property belong.
