TO THE PUBLIC.


Tie begssriy card over the Hsnse u r.
johnson Cotton. in the last Issue Of the
Beaoo~. requires but little notice. Driven
from his previous sl.nderous allegations.
his hired or volunteer scribbler essays By
inuendo. TO Ok upon me new SANDER
that Of drunkenness. True il is done in
an apparently playful and good natured
way-but from such source. il is covert.
and none the less designing and unman-
ly. Ny past and present life has been
and is sufficient refutation Of this new
SANDER.
He affects to Be faeesious-but iliy con-
eeais the gall that ANKLES in . heart Of
fostering hate. He attempt. sarcasm
bat il is sadly out Of place and taste. and
ill-comports with the occasion. His at
tempss at Wit are clumsy and laundering
At this :ate hour. he would teach his pro.
tege to be decent and clever. Such les.
sons-from such . master!.! Lxpus pr.
fsm nsstat. non men'ens.
Mr.. Cotton is made to say in reference
to the charge that I voted for Mr.. Hag.
ner in so. "but my assumption and be.
lief were predicated on the general neigh.
borhood Impressions" &c. No such i'm
pressious existed then, or have ever cxis.
ted. The reverse was. AMI is true.
Ihave nothing to say about the dead wit.
ness referred to. He may be one whose
memory honor as much as they. But
this 1 will say. that I never said to any
man. any thing that indicated any inten-
ton on my part. to vote for other than
Col. Hughes. had denounced know
nottingham at whig primary meeting al
Chaptico in '55. as a dangerous fanaticism,
at Leonardtown in sc. and in so it wa.
dead in the land, and its carcass needed
not even the kick Of such hero as am
noticing. to prove it was de<unct.
In these charges Of know-no,hingism
and religious prescription. they are much
like the boy who said he saw "a thous.
and foxes in the road" Upon being repri.
handed for his extravagance. he whined
out. "indeed I saw one track, any how. -
But the rains had effaced that.

TnH ISrEaRrrY OF THE TIcKEr.-The
obligation sPon democrats to support
Mcsars. Whyse, syester and woolford
our State nominees. Is not q whit more
binding than the obligation to support our
County nominees. The same party law
which applies in the one case applies in
the other and with equal force. Tie &C.

Kgatory upon party men than the action
sSs Csuuty Convention. Both are agents,
he one direct, thc other intermediate, Of
the veter. who is tho underlying power in
both cases. But illustration or ampli6ca-
ton cannot be necessary upon this point
Fraud. We admit. vitiates every thing. but
n should not be forgotten that there is
vide difference betwceo charging fraud
sd 1vosi.g il. II has been CHARGED, that
eur late Convention was packed by one
man power. that the delegates cheated
their constituents and were controlled BY
aisrcputable eliques. rings, etc. These
things have been charged, We say. but
where ID the proof? The very frst sein-
nlla = yet to Be furnished. Is il rcquir-
ID q the Convention advocates 70 prove a
nsgativel We suppose not. Let. then.
eur aecusers bring forward. not only their
charges. but the proofs upon which they
rest. The Convention men ask no quar-
Ter from their adversaries. They defy
diem to the only test which can determine
whether the Convention has been guilty

that I'VE (the Republicans) never viola
ted the Co stitutiop, constructed in the
spirit of its trainers" Who organized
military commissions for the trial Of citi-
Gems not in the military or naval service
Who established test-oaths. which the SUI
preme Court declared to be uncons,itu-

commissions? The fact is. that from the
time ofihe Republican asccndeucy, in 1861 i,
nearly all Of their laws have been noto-
riously opposed to the Constitution. and
such Of them rs are not dead by their SUBJ
ject-matter will be declared void BY the

whole policy has been outside Of the Con-

1.-THE Senator boasts Of the Republican
administration having paid OF consider
able portion of the public debt. but he for
gets to tell us that this has been done BY
wringing four or Eve hundred millions n
year out Of the hard earnings Of the Amer
lean people. In fact, the whole of the
Republican platform. as laid down BY Mr.
Morton, is negative. He proposes no great
measures. He brings forward no pcpu-
lar issue. He and the administration par
ty expect to flourish upon the old war is
sues that are obsolete, and all their efforts
now are directed to galvanixe the dead
past. No great party can exist long in
that way.

Speaking of the recent murder OF Mr..
Melton md family, the Chesterfield
Democrat says:
There are various surmisos Us to who
were the perpetrators OF this outrage,
some surprising they were members of
tho ku Klnx organization, some that
they were negroes, mnny Of whom wcrc
said to be much cnragcd against Melton,
and others suppose they were body Of
outlaws from North Carolina. We lave
never heard Of ku Klnx mnltreating wo-
men when they inflicted punishment,
always taking tho victims distance from
their families. This. if nothing else,
would lead us to the belief that this out
rnge was the result Of personal malico
rather than the organized punishment Of
crime, real or supposed. Our citizens
should uso every effort to ferret out and
bring to justice the authors Of this crime.
