Not 30. We havo been holding no ''dispute''
whatever on that subject and yon have seen no
sach thing IN our columns. We have said that
Senator Bayard, while seeing the inilationist
monster swallowing his party has r OF 80 much
as shouted to drive it away-in fact has been
as mute as an oyster in the presence OF this in

fact his only elections wero to the Legislature

being by an Independent movement, in opposi-
ton to the regular Democratic candidate, in
which he received the whole Republican vote Of
tho county Schuylkill. His colleague on tho
