evening, written by one John ii. Barton,
sin order ths, tee people Of ibis represea.
ts,ive district may no! be impcsed upon
by the shortcomings 81 VIVA; is justly
styled the Carbonate political rlng.'
Barron thinks that from the time he
put bis nose into the c0ur. housc he could
smell something in tho breeze that
did not watt to his sensitive nostri,s any
considerable amour. OF Bas.onian per-
fume. This is true. The people Of Jack
son have bsen time and again disgusted
by the trick. Of Mt Barton and the
Carbonate ring. At the convention las.
fall he was snutbed IN palpable manner,
and i! was hoped, for tho good Of the repu-
blican party and few OF his friends who
are reputable citizens, that he could take
the back seat which had been provided
for him. But he turned up again with
tho determination TO RUE or ruin, and
entered the convention last Saturday at
the hosd Of delegation that had not boen
appointed by any body Of citizens and
represented nobody.
tthe primary meeting held at Car bon
dale last Thursday to appoint delegates to
the Republican convention that sssem-
blei at Murphysboro las, Saturday, a
committee was appointed by tho chair
man, who is unfrieadly to me- and WIS
instructed TO report delegates 10 the mee,-
ing. The committee, i. is needles. 10
say, was selected with Wow to obtain
ing a delegation hostile 90 my nomination
for tho legislature, although fact
that was patent to all who
were present a, the meetIng-s large ma
jori,y Of the meeting were my friends
When the report Of the committee was
presented, a motion was made to lay it
on the tsble-s m o.ion that even q novice
in parlismentsry Law must admit was in
order, and whi,h no chairman Of q
meeting, who was inclined TO act honestly,
would have refused to entertain, and
which Dr.. Waggonner, If he had no,
been aware Of the fact that my friends
were in the msjori.y in the meeting would
not have refused to entertain; but
knowing that my friends would
have voted the repor. down, he ruled
thatth committee, having been instructed
10 repor. delegates, and having done that
duty, its action was ansl; that therefore
the motion to Law on the table WAS on. o.
