That same Old Tune.

That same ObQ II onCs
As the Troy Repxblicum has nothing Lew to ofier,
but grinds away at the same old song, We can see
no use in keeping up the discussion through tne
new year. The positions we have taken IN resari
to affairs in the late County canvass, we know TO
he correct, and we almost daily have evidence
that they are approved by amajority OF the Repuo-
licaus of the County-eyen by some VINO, u. 'hc
BEGINNING, condemned us. We sometimes take
a pos;tiop when we have misgivings whether we
are correct; but i'm this matter, we are confident
we are right. and are in constant receipt Of addi-
tioual proofs of it. To sum M, We have said, aud
do say:
That prominent Republicans, holding POSITIONS
In the party, went into the primary elections anu
were defeated; went into the County Co"seh''o.''
and were defeated; and then deliberately, 'reaen-
erously, and sncakingly attempted 70 De.t"y .ne
party, and to elect Democrats over inc ncPuoh-
can nominees.
That We have NOT. as the Republican falsely as
.a,ts tbre.trned to bolt the ticket If our especial
f.xor;tes are not nominated for Office; but We
have said. and do say, that VIC will bolt the NOM
ination of any Of the traitors above allnded to.
That We have not made fuss, as the Repsbli-
can asserts, simply bccanse MAQuLkEN did not
get as large majority as the other candidatcs;
but because the foiled systers singled out, as the
person to defeat, a candidate who lived in White
Cloud, as punishment of the Republicans here
for thinking differently from them; and because
they tried to defeat him with not only Demo-
crat but one who made no concealment, during
the war, of his rebel sentiments.
That there was no meanness, fraud or decep-
tiop at which these hestated to subserve their
purpose-nether lies threats, nor any low, fraud
ulent device.
That we never have bolted regular Republi-
can ticket, notwithstanding all the labored efforts
to prove to a people who know better, that
fraudulent concern concocted by a few indlvi'l-
uals was a regular Republican ticket.
Finally, We confess, that when we believe we
are in the right, we try to convince everybody
else of the fact, and to have them go with u.s. If
that is trying to run the County, we plead guilty;
and it is an offence of which good many Others
are also guilty. But our position has generally
been endorsedb a majority Of the Republicans
of the County, we afford to let that charge so
without making extraordinary efforts to contra
dict it.

the homes and gladdens the fresides of every sta

stories Of sea and land, adventures anecdotes &C.,

enormous circulation and is gaining more friends

FLOWERS FOR THE MIILION.-Mr. James Wick
of Rochester, New York, sends MS his Annual H.
lnstrated Catalogue and Floral Guide for the
year ls72 We notice this particularly, rs it is an
example of class. of publications becoming quite
common, and which indicate the wonderful
growth and extension of the cultivation Of flow
ers in our country. This catalogue is elegantly
printed in two colors, upon fine tinted paper, and
the first edition numbers fco ksndrcd Momsamd.
Its size is one hundred and twenty pages, and it
is filled with the most interesting and valuable
matter to all who cultivate flowers or vegetables
There are over three hundred engravings of flow
ers and vegetables, beside two beautiful coloretl
plates. 1t is furnished for the low price of ten
cents copy.
Every householder should have garden i'm which
to raise flowers and vegetables And the right
way to secure it is to plan for it now A little
care in securing good seeds and in properly pre-
pairing for planting them when the season arrives
would secure rich return in the added comfort
Of the family. Nothing is more refining than the
culture of flowers. Flowers are nsture in her
best estate. They are the perfection of color and
form. No painter can equal the tints of the rose.
No sculptor can rival the grace of the lily. Chill
drcn brought up to the care of flowers insensibly
acquire something of their beauty. The eye is
cultivated more than it can he by pictures. What
adds more to the hnmblest home than . few
bright flowers and climbing vincss We often
think Of this when We see homes standing hare
and bleak under broiling sun.
We advise all Of our readers to send for Mr..
viek's beautiful catalogue, get some of his fine
flower and garden seeds, and for year. at least,
try the virtue Of home grown vegetables and
flowers
