COZ. HOPKINS CARD.

In reply to Col. Hopkins we have
simply to say that he was singled out
for comment by us in our last issue te-
cause he was the only one of the can
didstes who had announced a purpose,
which we considered hostile TO the
public interests. He Is seeking q DO
sition which will empower him to az
feet the public interest and his position
is one for public scrutiny. He is a
candidate and weare public journal
sist and q voter to boot. He seeks to
represent the people and we warn and
post the people as far as we are able to
do so. It is known that he Is hostile
10 Consolidation and that COnsoIisla-
ton is the only means of building the
Cumberland Gap Railroad. Therefore
heis considered hostile TO that great
enterprise. As well assert that he is
in favor of the final perseverance of
the Saints, but opposed to the Chris
tan religion. His letter fails to inform
us that he Is In favor of Bristol'as the
terminus and doubtless his silence on
he-suhject and the fact that all his
int ests are in Abingdon have pro-
voked the rumor that he favors Alb
ingdon as the terminus. II he will
state thai, he favOrs Bristol as the ter
m!nus w VIII accept that statement
as true. Bn, these great questions

The County Convention of the
Conservative party of Giles met at
Pearisbarg on Tuesday the 18th Of
September, and resulted in the nomi-
nation of Chapman Snidow, ESQ.,
Col. A. G. Pendleton, Chapman l
Johnston, Fl. W. Broderick. James
D. Johnston and J. G. Snidow were
placed in nomination. The conven
ton was composed Of about GO dele
gates, elected by the townships o.
the county. After the first ballot
the name of Col. Pendleton was drop
ped, he having received the smallest
number of votes. After the second
ballot the name of Mr.. Roderick was
dropped, on the third ballot the name
of Mr.. C. l. Johnston " S ! o ped
The fourth ballot resulted in the NOM
ination of Mr.. Snidow. This contest
resulted in the defeat of both Col.
Pendleton and Capt. ]. D. Johnston.
who had for some time been the sole
contestants for the position. Capt.
Johnston had held, prior to the war,
uhe position of Atty for the Com
rnonwealth, and his name became one
of Il O e over which has been raised
the que ;tion of ineli. Utility because of
the I4th amen iment, and which was
the cause of his defeat. Upon this
question the ablest minds of the Com
monwealth have been unit, and the
question seems to have been raised
and the discussion Of it perpetuated
only by those men, or by the friends
of those men, who seem TO have been
willing to enlarge the area of federal
ostracism in order 10 narrow the fielG
of competitor for offices to which they
aspired This question Lad been
sprung in Giles Co., and the rove
Of the local press had been brought
largely to bear on it 1t certainly
had the affect of defeating Capt.
Johnston on the final ballot, but it
seems to have had also the affect OF
defeating Col. Pendleton on the first
one, for We understand the belief was
general that he urged against this op
ponent the question of disability. 1t
is perhaps very well that his unnatu-
raj and unnecessary knot was cut by
the people in the nomination of Mr.
Snidow, who is young gentleman "i
fine character and is Row the leadins
representative Of one of the old. lead

makes creditable and useful member

EDITORS OF THE BRISTOL NEWS,
Gentlemen:
In your paper of last week
an editorial appeared, concerning our
county canvass for the Legislature, in
which alone was singled out, from a
list of five Candidates, and denounced
as opposed to the Cumberland Gap
Rail Road, and yet in the very same
sentence, you say, am endeavoring
to make Abingdon the terminus.
Thus you will perceive you have con-
tradicted yourselves. Now sirs, as you
have publicly misrepresented my posi-
ton on this subject, desire through
your own paper. to correct that mis-
representation. denouDce the charge
a willful and malignant faisehood fab
ricated by pme Gesi :: 1 y party, for the
express purpose of injurng my cleo
ton. No living human being can say
that have ever expressed myself hos
tile to the building of that road. or
that / have made or expressed all ia
tention to make any effort to have the
terminus at Abingdon. On the con-
trary / would gladly render any assis-
lance could TO hasten the completion
Of IT.. or any other contemplated Rail
Road in our county. -
In my Card Announcing myself a

1t is our duty to expose to the peo-

tempt which was made on Monday

A public meeting was called by an
nouncement at the Court House door
and the senior editor of this paper
was requested to address those pres
ent and to give them an account Of
the proceedings Of the State Conven-
ton at Richmond, on the S0th ult.
As he was the only delegate from the
county which attended the State Con-
ventisn, he Consented and after an
address OF some thirty minutes length
he was requested TO read the plan OF
organization adopted at Richmond.
DIR. Hutton was called 20 the Chair,
and. on motion of Dr.. Peoples, q
committee of three from each town.
ship was appointed to retire and re-
port business for the meeting. On
motion of DR.. Peoples. the plan of
organization proposed by the State
Convention ,cas adopted. This far
the meeting had been entirely har-
mOniOus and not one negative vote
had been given. But it was stated in
the meeting, and in the committee,
that the plan could not possibly be
put in operation In time for the ap
preaching election = that it would
require from two to three months to
enroll the voters, and the proposition
seemed TO meet with universal assent.
The committee adopted. unanimously,
a resolution appointing. according to
the State plan. "a county committee

each township. thechairman of which

ty. and who shall proceed, according

the contract for this great work hns
been signed. The Times sa:f. 81 ut,

its provisions are. Col. FlOurnoy has
very prudently kept his plans secret,

An English company. we UNDER

and the work will be commenced at

we may expect to see a thousand
