The Monitor and journal are in the
habit of clipping locals from this pa
per, and publishing them without
giving proper credit. Be honest,
gentlemen.
The Monitor has changed hands,
Mr.. Harpold having bought out his
partner, Mr.. Atkeson. The paper is
now Republican, and under its new
management makes very good app
pearancc. 1t advocates Bristow,
How will the Journal like this new
paper in the Republican ranks?
We direct attention to the an
nouncemcnt of j. W. c. Armstrong,
Esq, in this weeks Register, as II
candidate for the House of Delegates.
He is Il young lawycrof fine abilities,
of steady habits, and It sterling Dem,
ocrat, and should he be nominated
and elected he will make most eX-
ccllent Representative. We hope
the Convention in August next, will
give his claims full consideration.
The Prcsbyterians at their Fcsti-
val Wednesday night of last week,
made about 70 dollars, clear of all cx-

the NJ. Z. Church, South, will give Il.
Festival tonight "wednesday for.
the benefit of their church, and we.
hope they will be literally patroni-
zcd.
