a Trip with Candidates.

MR. HARPER After discussion between the
ioa' u D. Faulkner and the Hon A. II. Boteler
before quite a large and intelligent audience in
the Courthouse at Moorefeld. on the p =, NJ
Tuesday, the 2a,h instant, when Mr. Faulkner
in his usual telling matter of.fact s,vIe ,o;,,os
out the voters important matters for their
'oHs'ueranon, among them, the question of uu-
'4ua' INTERNAL taxation The importance Of or
ganiza ton and adherence to the party, that an
o'ner result like that caused by the split in the
Democr ratio party in 1860 secession and its con-
sequences) may be forever averted-wh;ch oues-
nons seem to have taken hold of the peonle's
reason. And when Mr. Boteler, in his usual
handsome and elegant mode bore hard upon Mr.
Faulkner personally, and endeavored in poetic
language, 10 do away with all the facts Mr. f
nad presented, TO the conclusion of the bearers
that he (Mr. Botelerl wasa remarkable duplicate
OF the Western statesman Schurz this gifted or
a'or p possessing talents OF so high an order. vet
without influence. He has no personal f,lIovx-
ers whatever, except a few men of fair culture
when he makes a speech, every body saws il is
very fne, and that is the end of it. We passed
the mountain gorge the mex, day with the Hon.
Mr. Faulkner into the valley of Lost River, where
be had made appointments, at three different
places, ten and twenty miles apart, TO speak TO
the people. The turnout was reasonably large
considering the fact that the farmers were en-
gagged in securing their crops of corn land auxi-
ously, too, from the fact that frost was looked
ior,) and the casting Of seed upon the ground
Tor another years harvest. At these points Mr.
Faulkner and Mr.. w. c. Clayton, the chosen
candidate for the State Senate, made many
friends, and doubtless have secured most if not
all the votes in that section of Hardy, as we'll as
those on the Moorefeld side of the mountain
and in the town and valley.

sire to have the election over without dscord.
hence but few say how they are going to vote,
what they intend TO do however is unmistaka-
BILE. If they never did before, they now will ac-
cept General Grants "let US have peace" and
prove by their votes that Radicals must be Radi-
Gals, so must their aftiliators GOD.
