the ''store-box speeches Of the eloquent
Grceleyite candidate for Clerk Now,
II he assails, personally, candidate on
the Democratic ticket, he cannot complain
if some Dcmocrnt rctaliates upon the Re
publican ticket. AS he is so anxious to
have u candidates speech reported aud
published in his columns, suppose he turns
his attention to speech or lecture said
to have been delivered, some time ago, by
one Of the candidates on the Republican
ticket, wherein he is reported to have held
the idea that the negroes are allied with
the monkeys or balloons. If it be true
that such an idea was advanced by any
one now on the Republican ticket, let the
Sentiael publish that speech, II it is so
anxious for speech to publish. Or, if il
cannot get copy Of il to publish, let it
explain to the negro voters in that party
how il happened that gentleman who had
advanced such opinions, was endorsed by
the Republican party, in Carroll county,
and placed upon their ticket, thus making
the whole Republican party in the county
responsible for such an opinion.

a writer in the Ssniasl says - The
Greeleyite candidate for Clark Is carpet
hsgger and Tires Or the 0reeleyite candi-
dates for the Legislature are aIso carpet
baggers."
II i wonder that this scribbler was
not ashamedso use the word carpetbag-
gers. since the earpetbaggers all belong to
the Radical party As tho term Is com
monty understood ii means class Of Rad
icals who have gone down South from the
Northern States, and by means Of the ne
gro votes have managed to get intopower,
and afterwards plundered the Southern
people BY pilingup the taxes until the land
has been sold, in many instances, to pay
for their extravaganza The falsity Of the
above extract is seen, at a glance, when il
is known that all the candidates alluded to
are natives Of Maryland, and one Of them,
at least, native of this county. The
puerility Of such fling at political oppO-
nents can only reeoil against the writer
himself, and the party in whose interest
he attempts such paltry service. That
cause must be desperate indeed that re-
quires it, II is the old leayen of Know
nothingism showing itself again in all its
hideous deformity, and says 10 every man
in the county, not born upon the soil, he
is not welcome here, though he came to
Carroll, from choice, to build up her in
terests and to develop her resources, and to
identify himself with her growth and pros
perity. The accident Of birth, over which
no man has any control, is here set up as
preferable to a residence from choice.
That large class of citizens in the county,
who have come here through preference
from other counties, should resent the in
dignity thus attempted to be cast upon them
by this narrow-minded scribbler. Men IF
sense and men Of worth, who were born
upon the soil Of Carroll, who are capable
of approaching the position Of those citi-
zens of the county who have come here
from other parts Of the State, to cast in
their lot with the native-born citizens of
Carroll and to build up her interests,
should also resent it, and make this dog ia
the manger ashamed of his selfish policy.
If such principles of prescription as are
here inculcnted should succeed, we would
then see men who did not happen to be
born in the same county or district in
which they attempted to vote, branded
with the epitllet of carpetbagger, and the
old days of Radical rule in Maryland would
return, again when some of the best men
and heaviest taxpayers were driven from
the polls with the epithet of rebel, on
account of political opinion only. Demo
Gratis, think of these things, while you
have the power to avert what you have
heretofore suffered.
