The Issues of the Campaign.

The high tariff oppression;
the funding bill that robs the
people to enrich bondholders:
the internal revenue swindle;
Congressional land grants, by
which our immense public
domain is fast passing into the
hands of soulless monopolies;
the Unjust exemption of bonds
from taxation; the infamous
act, pro 'iding for Federal in
terference in State elections;
Government [ extravagance,
bribery and corruption, are
the grave issues in this canvass,
and upon which the Democrat
ic party occupy no doubtful
ground, but take issue squarely
with the Radical leaders who
originated, enacted and now
defend these measures, and
other schemes that rob the
treasury and corrupt the Gov
ernment.

The latest advices are to the effect that
the alleged Roumanian massacre OF the
Jews was falsehood from beginning to
end. A telegram from London, dated
June 9Th, says: dispatches from the
United States announce the receipt there
of reports of massacres of Jews by Christ
ians in Roumania. No advices have
reached here on the subject, and the Con-
tinental news agencies deny that there
have been any recent ontrages upon the
Jews of Roumania. A dispatch from
Bucharest states that riot occurred last
week at Botuschaly. village in Moldavia,
during a local election. 1t is described as
an ordinary political disturbance which
was quelled without the interference of
the troops"

A Hero OF Eleven Divorces.

On the 18th of April, 1869, Samuel lie .
lie was married ut Wooster to Il young
lady twenty-four years of age, Samuel
having reached the mature ago Of fifty
seven. lie had possessed ten wives be
fore this, each Of whom had obtained III
vorces from him. She had known him
but from the Sth of March to the 18th Of
April, but ho had money; and she laid all
the blanc upon his former wives and gave
him her young and virgin heart. She
lived with him but a short time when she
discovered that he was Il common drunk
ard, and he commenced to display his nj
lection for her by hitting her over the
head with q shovel, throwing boiling watci
at her, driving her ont OF doors at the
dend of night, aud other such pet acts
were not very pleasant, to say the least.
She applied for divorce, but he pleaded
so warmly and made her 50 many promises
that she withdrew her application, but he
soon afterwards renewed his former course
and she again made application. This
time the suit was prosecuted, and on Sat
urday Judge Boynton gave her the divorce
and 1000 al1mOny. This was the eleventh
divorce suit that has been brought against
him.-AkrOn lOhio) Times.

GRAND observation-disclosures M.
Arnold, one of the speakers at the Indig-
nation, Bolting Meeting OF Tuesday night,
made the following announcement Of the
names of the men whom he stated war0
bribed and the price given them during
the Convention. The boldnegs of the de
nunciation is deserving of attention:
James Wilson, although he had pledged
his vote to Sehenck, was induced to cast
the same for Burney, Influenced by a
promise Of the support of the Price Rice
faction for the next mayoralty, position
which Arnold declares he has been long
seeking and will be yet longer in obtain
ing.
Stephen Reyes was induced to change
his views and vote by the promise of a
nomination to the Legislature Failing in
that he was made nominee for the posi-
ton of County Commissioner.
Rufus Garris1 was bought for eighteen
dollars and seat on the Board of Com
missioners.
Hugh Wells was purchased by the Bur-
ney faction for one barrel of flour, two
pounds of coffee and three hams.
&. nj. Galloway sold out for seven pounds
of coffee and fifty pounds of bacon; and
lastly, Chas. Foy placed himself at the
low rate of twenty yards calico for his
''old woman"
SO much for the county.
But Arnold went still farther. He
charged that D. Rumley, that poor fellow,
as he termed him, had in his employ, paid
by the Government, four men, to wit:
Price. Sampson, Galloway and Burney, at
a salary of 81, 500 each per annum, who
never went to the Custom House except to
draw their pay, and yet, MIR. Rumley Ger

The return of the reverend carpet bag
ger Whittemore to Congress, by the large
majority of eight thousand, is pretty good
commentary on the state OF affairs in the
district from which he halls. This man, a
South Carolina representative in Congress,
was some months ago expelled from that
body, of which his own party form a
sweeping majority. for open bribery. No
sooner is the fact of his expulsion an
nounced, than he shoulders his carpet-bag
and again migrates TO South Carolina,
where he is re elected to the Congress from
which he had just been expelled, to ill
his own unexpired term. Certainly ras-
cality must be at premium in the Dis

On the 1st inst. there appeared in this
paper a communication from Fayetteville,
signed NJ, giving full and succinct &C.
count of the murder of the Mcleod family,
in Cumberland county, on the Oath ult.
In it there was the following paragraph
"Suspicion is inclined to one Henry Col
lins formerly Of Moore county, who has
frequented that neighborhood, and some
of the mulatto desperadoes from Robson
county. as the guilty parties
In reply to this, Henry L. Collins, for
merly of Moore, but at present from Rich
mond county, writes us on tho possible
supposition that he was the Collins re-
ferred to by our corr respondent, and sends
certificates to prove his character and that,
on the occasion Of the murder, he did not
leave the neighborhood of Laurel Fill,
where he is now engaged in saving lumber
for Mr.. Noah Gibson.
We are glad to be able to state that this
Mr. Henry T. Collins is not the person
spoken of in our correspondence article
The Collins referred to is now in hiding in
the swamps of Moore and Cumberland
counties, as We have been informed by the
author of the communication, who is now
in this city, and we hope that snch papers
as have published tho first fact will also
give publicity to this. and so render the
explanation which We think dne one whom
We have reason to believe is peaceful,

Row Is the Accepted Time.

Now is the time when the true Conserva.
tives of this State should be q unit in ac-
ton, and should stand by each other upon
every issue of the day. Radicaiism has
done much to defeat itself, but the true
people Of the State must finally kill and
bury it so deep that it can never look for
another resurrection. The experiences of
the last campaign should serve as beacon
lights in this. Holden would never have
disgraced the gubeTnatorial chair; Abbott
weuld never have written himself Z. s. S.
from n. c., and the State credit would
never have fallen from so to % cents on
the dollar had there been the proper unan-
unity among the opponents of Radicalism
at the last regular election. There were
enough good and true white men in this
State to have saved the State from the grasp
of Holden and Littlefield had they but have
exerted themselves sufficiently to record
their vote against the carpet-bag party.
While. always, the future is bright in
promises. the past is equally fruitful in its
lessons. From these we should learn and
should be careful not to be again led blind
fold, like sheep to the slaughter. What
ever divisions may now exist in this State
to the opponents of Radicalism is matter
for after discussion and should not be al
lowed to come now so hear the surface as
to endanger the cause We all have at heart.
