The Macs IS pleased to say this of us:
The Frostburg JOURNAL snaps lis up al
most saVea@cly over IA little item of pleas
antry concerning that paper which we
printed thc other day, and takes occasion
| to remind Ills that We have had no say
about tie "JouHNAL's half Colum refuta-
ton of the Frostourg bargain business. -
Many an one with a great deal less discern
mcnt than the JOURNAL possesses might
have discovered that as the 'rrfltation'
alluded to was principally an argument
with reference to the personal popularity
OF Il political opponent of the editor of the
-Nc"S, that good taste, if no other consid-
Grafton, would have impcllcd silence on
our part
As TO the matter of taste" therefore, we
presume it is better to charge community
OF voters with bargain characterized as
'diSgraccful and mean than to compare
popuIartics OF candidates If so, we are
happy to stand the "discernment' discount
1--WE ccrtainl. shall not argue with the
JOURNAL or any one else as to the degree
o!persolal popularity OF the State Senator
elect. He has had recently 4 handsome
manifestation Of it, and should and doubt
less docs feel greatly cnmplmentcd. We
know he will wear his distinguished honors
even to the compliments of the JOURNAL,
with modest grace"

a few more Plain Words from an Old
Man.

EQ1LOT spectator:
Little did my old brain think
my observations last week would cause the stir
among the young, and some old folks, that ]
noticed, ,as | sauntered around. Why the young
men are stirred up to ''mend their ways can
readily see, for they often do wrong through
mere levity, and the joys Of youth and
tife. can never feel again, and, perhaps, | was
as bad as any of them once, but that several old
gentlemen should be Indignant" at being
charged with writing my humble efusion, is
what cahnot see. | gladly relieve them OF
all responsibility, ,and am sure the public, on Sc
rious thought, will not attribute my brains to
them again. As said, am plain man and
can but speak plainly, and here let me call at
tention to another nuisance which the police
should abate. | allude to the bowling of drunk
en- men at nights, going down Valley Pike and
through GallOWstown. 1t is an outrage on
good manners and their obscene talk disgusting
to ladies. If the young men, alluded to last
week, will take these fiends In hand, they will
find plenty of room to develope their energies
and talents, and | hope they will, if the Police
are too busy enforcing the ''dog-law' to do it.
did intend to allude to the foolish habit of al
lowing children at schools, and out, male and
female, to carry on firtations as they do, and
show up its demoralising tendency, but reserve
it for another letter, only adding nothing is
more contemplate than female firt, except
it is the male, and that young ladies who in
dulge in such folly. only lower themselves in the
eye OF every man whose opinion is worth having
and lay the foundation for untold misery and
SORROW in after life But more anon.

A Magnus skulksr Addresses the People.

Felloao- Citizens of augusta:
Believing that most of the
present members Of the Legislature will be
thrown out at the next election, and consider
ing myself the best and most efficient man you
can find to fill so important a position, an
nounce myself candidate for your suffrages.
During the four long years of bloody war, from
the first Manassas to the surrender at Apo
mattox, | always endeavored to escape the
many dangers by which [ was surrounded, in
order that [ might live to serve my country in
a more honorable, peaceful and safe way And
fellow-citzens, now call upon you to reward
my patriotism. | now offer my invaluable ser
vices to you, iu this your hour Of need Ac-
cept them, you are saved reject them, and
you are irretrievably ruined!
OF course it is due to you and to myself that
I should inform you what propose In the event
of my election (which no man can doubt). In
the first place, l will require as large "per
diem as can possibly spend in whisky, oys-
ters, cigars, etc. At the same time l pledge
myself not to sell my vote to any one, (Gen.
Malone not excepted) for less than ten dollars.
| will endeavor to lengthen the sessions as
much as possible, as we'll as receive my per di-
EN- In my absence from duty, and especially
during the Christmas holidays.
In reference to the State debt, | would say
for the benefit of my friends. and the public
generally, [ propose repudiating the whole OF
it, and dividing the funds now in the State
Treasury, amongst the members of the next
Legislature. In regard to the re-assessment Of
lands in the county, would state that, being
entirely satisfied with the assessment made on
mine, I will oppose any change in that direc-
ton whatever. | will endeavor through my
personal influence to have myself appointed
Major General of Militia, a position which
have always desired to occupy, and which
would fill with great brilliancy.
In conclusion, fellow-citizens, desire to say
that will abide fair and square convention
provided it nominates me, but if not [ will rur
as an Independent candidate, believing that .'al
conventions are frauds, gotten up and packed
by few energetic wire-pullers,' for the bene
fit and advancement of themselves and friends
and against the best interests of the country
l assure you, my fellow-citizens if it is you
pleasure to elect me, will serve you honestly
faithfully and we'll, and that l will use my ut
most endeavor to increase your taxes and lessor
your credit. Your humble servant.

What Rockbridge Needs.

LEXINGTON, FeD., 1878.
Editor Spectator:
| received number Of your
paper recently. It was full of interesting mat
ter and was, in fact, perfect encyclopedia oi
facts. You speak of writing about the Valley
counties, commencing with Rockbridge-suc-
cess to you. Rockbridge is full of hidden
wealth. She calls herself poor, without know
ing how rich she is. She is sleeping beauty,
and needs only to be wakencd up, to exhibit
her charms. She needs only railroad that
the world may see her, and then she will walk
10 beauty, like a thing Of life." She needs
the enterprise of Staunton to show off her va
ried charms. Nothing but the railroad whistle
will rouse her up.
The piece of Lithographic stone sent you is
part Of specimen which had been in my Office
for two years When Prof. A. j. Walk was
here last Summer, I showed it to him. He at
once applied his tests and discovered it was
lithographic stone. This was the discovery of
its value. There is other stone here like it,
in appearance, but not genuine. 1t requires a
peculiar process to test the genuine. Continue
to stir up the people 10 the development of ma
terial interests, which alone can bring US politi-
cal strength, prosperity and independence. =
The local press has great work to do 10 this
field, and [ hope all will follow the example the
old and reliable Spectator has put before them.
