A Timely Caution.

II any one waits to scratch the regu-
lar ticket, of course he has IL right to.
This is II tlcc country, and no one is
obliged to vote for man obnoxious to
him just hcrluiSc his name is on the reg
uiar ticket But it is another thing to
''Split" IA ticket, and have it look like
the Irregular so as To deceive some and
make them vote for men they don't
want
TO illustrate: We understand one of
the tricks is to substitute the name of
y. i. bowman for that of a. o. Harris
tor side Judge in the republican county
ticket. Now if any rather elect Major
Bowman, Il good democrat than Mr..
Harris, a good republican why they
can vote this ticket; but we caution
voters to read their ballot through and
see if it corresponds with the ticket at
the head of these columns. All others

Moulton's Little Story in Full.

The entire statement of MOultOn was
made public i'll Saturdays papers. 1t
would make twenty five or thirty col
unns in the C0ieiOhidn, and we propose
to reduce it into nearly as few lines.
He says he publishes it in consequence
of the letter of Mr.. Beecher He pro-
tesses great regret ut being compelled
to make public the facts, and does it
only i'll self defense, and had striven for
four Years to keep them secret. He
felt that Mr.. BccclIcr could better make
his defense untrammcled by the facts
of which he was the poSsessor, and need
