SOME time since we had occasion to
| publish certain extracts from recent
messages of the Governors respective
| Iy of South Carolina, Louisiana, and
Arkansas, denying the existence of
any insurrectionary combinations in
those States, or any other prevalence
of crime than is customary even in
the best regulated communities and
now we have the messages of Gov
ernor Alcorn, of Mississippi, and Gov
ernor Lindsay, of Alabama. asserting
substantially the same thing. In tab
ulating the offences Of violence in
Mississippi, Governor sAlcorn says
they do not represent "any organized
opposition to the officers of the law" !"
and can in time be pretty effectually
diminished or prevented by means of
the usual civil law processes; and to
the Legislature of Alabama, Govern
or Lindsay says - Is ta
In greeting your return to re-
sumption of your Legislative duties, it
affords me the highest qualification in
being permitted TO congratulate You,
and through you the various constitu-
encies you represent, upon the gener-
al good order and social tranquility
which prevail throughout our State
Though occasional aggravated infrac-
tions of tho law have interrupted the
peace of communities, the perpetra-
tors of which must and shall be
brought to punishment, yet it is pleas
ing to observe the increasing ssolici-
tude and determination on the part of
the people to promote morality and to
maintain the supremacy of the laws.
With the Governor of Alabama,
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and
South Carolina, denying any unusual
virulence .of crime in those States;
with Governor Bullock, of Georgia,
taking the same ground by giving cer-
tifcates of election to all the MEM
bers of Congress recently chosen and
with the United States House of Rep
resentatiyes indorsing this view by
admitting those members, without
question, it must conclusively appear
that the blood-and-t campaign
of the administration in favor of re-
reconstruction. of the South has not
even plausible pretence in it's favo-.

THE FOOT OF HARPBR'S FERRY
ON THE DODGE"

The Radical trick Of announcing the So
called aPeOplo's Ticket" is the height Of i'm
pudcnce, the agony Of desperation, and as
miscrably dishonest as the minds that con-
ceiyea it. The names irregular nominees Of
tho Democratic Conservative party arc freely
used. without the consent or knowledge of
those gentlemen, and even coupled with such
Radical. as ROpp, TilImyor aud Chambers
aud it possibly may be that Mr.. YautIs
means to be classcd in the same company, as
We understand that he is the nominee of the
Radical party for Supervisor Of Harpcr's Fer
ry township.
Alta meeting Of the Demociatic'C onserva'
tive party, held at IIarper's Ferry on Satur'
day evening last, for the purpose Of nomi-
mating township officers, amongst its proceed
iugs, the following was unanimously adopted,
concerning this movement
Whereas, 1t having come to our notice,
throurh'thc Shcphoristown Register, that a
ticket styled the Peoples Ticket" with a
portion Of the candidates who received the
nomination at Charlestown On the both ult,,
thereon,
And Whereas, The formation Of such a
ticket is evidently trick of the Radicals to
cause disCord in the ranks Of the Conserva'
tive and Democratic party, and secure posi-
ton thereby for portion Of their candidates
in the Convention and Legislature, who were
nominated ut the Back>uud.Ian Convention
held at Harpcr's Ferry;
And Whereas, No such proposition could
come from any other source than the clique
of Radica! ,ricksters who have governed this
county for the past eight years, therefore be il
ReSoIrcd, That We will support, to man
the ticket made at Charestown on tho 10Th
ult., by the Conservative and Democratic Con
veuiion, and oppose every attempt at the de-
feat of single candidate there pamed.
So say We. Stand BY the ticket, without
scratch or an omission Make no compro'
misses or trades with RaiicaIism. We cat
elect our whole ticket with case, by united
action We can defeat it, in part, and place
Radicals ia Office, by division. Stand firmly
vote solid maintain the unity Of our part!

AWAKE TO DUTY |

Editor Spirit Of Jc6crsoa-DEAR SIR:-
When consider our political, civil, financial,
aud generally dcrauged condition, and reflect
upon the cowardly, Insulting, thicving partisan,
yea, viIlainous conduct Of the radical party in
this State, from the highest to the lowest, !
am surprised at the want of interest Of tbs
conservative voters Of Berkeley and jefferson
in the approaching election, implied from the
columns Of the Press Of the two counties.
You I'LL must underrate the momCntous i'm.
portancc Of the contest to take place on the
4th Thursday of this month, between right
and wrong, justice md injustice, decency and
vulgarity, honesty and rcgui.huess. The free,
brave aud intelligent citizens otthe two coun-
ties cannot, will not, dare not, see the das.
tsrdy enemy advancing upon them with their
proscriptive banners flying and hear the orders
OF their leaders forward, steady, guide centre
keep closed up" without meeting them not
only with zeal but with alacr!ty, and knock
tho insolence aud assurance out Of them,
The p1st record Of the soldiers of the two
counties, rcpcl any such implication. The
fathers, mothers and sisters, who in the past
sustained their brave boys, will not now fail to
do their part in this contest. heard lady
remark the other day that She was opposed to
lemaesutiraga, but Oh She did wish She could
vote on this Cccasun-that she was tired Of
seeing her husband DISTINGUISHED, degraded
and dishonorcd, going about like cropped>
cared shoat, Us il he had done something not
ouly criminal but mean. Aye, and degraded
from the high estate of freeman, that II Nir-
gilman was born unl bred to, aud by whom !!
Why by those who never heard the roar Of
canon, the swift whistling bullet, aud who
never experienced the fatigue Of the march or
tho sulTerings Of tho camp.
Surely, sir, in the contest approaching, tho
Conservative masses arc not going to lose the
victory nor, when they have only to reach
forth their hand aud seize it. When they
voted for Convention they were serious and
meant business" They know tina: they owe
it to themselves, to their children, their grand.
children, to their uoghborS and to their God,
to lay the foundation Of just and free gov

leave to those coming after than greeubacks
