COL. WILSON'S RECEPTION.

That::wss grand and glorious recep-
ton which the invinclble Democracy OF
Wheeling accorded to Col. BEK. WILL
SON last night. 1t was proud ovation,
rendered by the honest working men OF
the city to their faithful representative
in the national councils. No pub
lie servant ever received more
cordial endorsement at the hands
of his constituents than did Col.
WILSON. Nearly 1000 Democrats
organized what might be called an
impromp!u procession and marched to
the First Ward to meet their represen-
tative and to hear him speak. The DEM
ocracy of Ohio county sends greeting to
their brethren IN the other sections OF this

A MEAN ATTEMPT TO DECEIVE

The unscrupulous. not to say malicious
person who manages and manlpulates
the Wheeling Inteitlgencer, inserted in
that paper last Tuesday morning state
ment that GEO. K. TINGLE had refused
to sign a call for a meeting for the relief
of the Savannah sufferers on the sordld
ground that Wheeling has no CONNER
cisl relations with that city. This
WAS n distortion and perversion OF
part of conversation had
with Capt. w. Il. WALLER, and
although this gentleman informed
the unscrupulous person referred to that
he would expect HIM, IN justice to both
himself and Mr.. TINGLE, to make amend
and state the truth, the said unscrupu-
lous mauipulator has mesnly, not to say
ms.iciously, refused to do 50.
The same vein of mesnness WAS ex-
hibited by this disciple of the "eloody
shirt" in regard to TILDEN's complete
reCutstion OF the infamous charges which
this unscrupulous sheet had been
feebly echoing about his in
come returns. Instead of printing
this refu,ation, as the reputable Repubh-
can papers of the country did, it printed
few gsrbled extracts from 1t, inter
spersed with remarks distorting and per-
verting, in manner characteristic OF
that unscrupulous, not to say malicious
sheet, the clear meaning of the text.
What is to be thought Of the value OF
the news of the day or Of any extracts
from other papers, served up by the m
tell,qencer2 After so gross performance
those apprised of 1t must certainly receive
suythlr appearing in the columns Of
that paper with suspicion and discTedit.
The unscrupulous person who controls It's
columns is as cold-hearted as was CESAR
BoRGIA, who adopted as his motto the at
trocious sentiment that the man who
would mount to power must not hesitate
to trample on the corpses OF his friends.
