ON the Capital Question.

The people Of the upper districts may
be assured that there Is no bitterness in
this district against them on account Of
the Capital removal, except amongst the
schemers, whom our people blame OK

The Charleston Courier and the Bourbons
whom It represents are held responsible
Tor the damage, in deluding our people

and original cause. These men cannot
shift the blame to tho upper districts,
which are innocent OF the great crime

This portion OF the State will not be
held responsible for tho conduct OF half

that they are so hedged around by a
