Daddy Gains Opinion OF Bowen's Su.
norters-Another County Ticket.


The belief of many of the Radicals that
Daddy Cain would recognize the power Of the
late Hurley-Bowen Convention and cease all
further opposition, was without foundation.
The action of that convention, and the detec-
ton of the Mackeyites, seem to have had the
effect of making Cain more determined than
ever in his opposition to the carpet-bag ele-
ment. In the last number of the Missionary
Record, he say that "the time has come for
every honest man in the Republican party to
asser. his liberty and declare his opposition to
class of men who have proposed TO rule the
colored people of this State with rod OF iron
and of damnable corruption. For the last two
years certain set of unmitigated scoundrels
have dictated to the mass OF voters of this
State what they should do, what they should
think, and how they should act; what they
should say and how they should vote. There
has been certain class who have been pick
ed up out of the prisons and cutters OF power
ty, coming to this State, begging their passage
and lifting contributions to start them in busi-
ness, who have since grown so proud and ar
rogant that they now wish to dictate to the
whole people what their duties are, and what
they shall think"
A FLAT DENIAL.
Cain denounces as base lie the charge oil
the Ring Organ that he "offered, In exchange
for nomination, to drop R. c. DeLarge lot
Congress, to slaughter his associates, and to
support his opponents He persists In his call
for a convention on the 28th of this month, to
make nominations for the county ticket. He
asserts that the Bowenites intimidated the
voters at several places Of meeting, and that
Bowen's supporters at the Customhouss, and
among the county commissioners, used the
public monies To advance the interests of their
leader. He charges that the county commits
sloners (not including Miller) ''have expended
thousands of dollars for their own private
uses, and have charged 1t to the county"
There are now over seventy thousand dol
lars Of checks given on the county treasury
more than will possibly be paid this year out
of the assessment"
THE CAIN CONVENTION.
Cain repeats his call for convention on the
2sth of this month, and says that Bowen and
his friends who desire to control the Legis!a-
ture having rejected all overtures for settle
ment of the county difficulty, he will go before
the people with another ticket, and means to
fight 1t out to the end. In Gains paper is the
ticket, which will doubtless be nomi-
mated by the convention proposed:

Notwithstanding the assertions Of the re.
,reant portion Of the DeLargeites, that Cain
would be unable to get up a convention, he
will have very large one. Quite a large
aumber OF those who were supposed to be led
" the Mackeyites have expressed their indiS-
,ation at the conduct OF their alleged leaders,
md their determination to support the Cain
ticket.
