Wherever this gentleman has spoken he
has won the esteem and appreciation of the
good people who were fortunate enough to
hear him. His plain, candid, honest and
truthful staten, mt of public questions and
his able discussion of them, elicits for him
that great respect and inspires that true
confidence which ever marks the true states
man. While he enjoys the confidence and
best wishes of his party friends for success,
his opponents alsn respect and have con-
tidcnce in his statements. He is not the
the mere tlme-serving, reckless politician,
occupying any and all sides of public ques-
tions at the same time, catching at this and
that supposed popular breeze and whlm,
merely for the sake OF an ephemeral popu-
larity. Having great national principles to
support, he is not compelled to resort to the
mere denunciation, and abuse and vulgar
slang which demagogues and politicians of
lower and more degenerate ORDER are IN
the habit OF lndulging.
Whenever he has occasion to condemn
any measure or practice of his political OPP
ponents he docs it in that calm, unprclu
diced and high toned style consistent with
propriety and the high position to which he
aspires, and thus elicits the confidence and
respect of all parties. By this means he is
making at once thorough and an efficient
canvass, making friends as lie goes through
the District
DESTROYS to meet his opponent, lie has re-
peatcdiy written or spoken to him to ar
range for discussions together; so that the
people might see and hear for themselves,
and Judge of the merits and claims of each,
as representatives of principles, for popular
support. 1t is gratifying to hear the re
ports. Us they come in to us. of Gen. Scott's
popularity as public debater and the IA
vorable effect he is producing on the public
mind Let our friends in all parts of the
District arouse themselves to the good work
before them, with zeal and energy displayed
by their gallant standard-bearer, and the
majority in August for Gen. Scoot will be
larger than it was for Gen. Grant in 1868.

Well done Allegheny. She has had the

years, and it has satisfied the people it is
nearly time to kill the fatted calf.-Jef.
Times Why, friend Times that's the case
almost all over the State. We know of
many of them and have frequent informa-
ton of others. Thousands of men, through
out this State who have been standing aloof
from the National Republican party on ac-
count of some improper prejudice, now see
it and will co operate with us heartily. The
evident reason is, that that party cmbodics
the true principles which they do now and
have long entertained; and that the-other
concern, is simply party OF abuse, brutali-
ty and opposition, and consequently unworthy
OF support AdreTcdte.

SERIOUS SHOOTING AFFAIR At CHESTER

HIS Son IN LAw-HEI Is MoRTALLY WOUND
ED-TrE CAUSE, ETC.-On yesterday after
noon 1T about ) o'clock a shooting affair
took place at Chester station. on the Peters
burg railroad, which, for the causes from
which it cnsued and its results, is one of the
saddeSt we have ever been called upon to
record. The principals to the affair are
Captain Hayward, of the "Dlme Restau-
rant of this city, and Mr.. B. F. Lindsay,
his son-in-law, and the particulars are of a
most painful nature
On yesterday afternoon Captain Hayward S
youngest daughter left the city Tor Chester.
Shortly after reaching that place she became
a mother. The grieved and stricken father
learned from her that her brother-in-law was
the father of the child. Shortly after this,
Mr.. Lindsay came up stairs and entered the
room. He went into an adjoining room,
where he confessed to Captain Hayward
that he was guilty. Captain Hayward
asked him what satisfaction he had to offer
him. He replied: What satisfaction can
offer your He prnfessed himself ready
to receive whatever Captain Hayward might
offer to redress himself. The latter drew
his pistol aud shot him twice. He fell, and
was found to have received one wound in
the thigh and another in the abdomen--the
latter in all probability being fatal. Capt.
Hayward at once delivered himself up to a
magistrate. At last accounts we were not
able to learn whether or not hc was bailed,
but it was presumed that he would be,
