1t may be proper for me to say that this

A. M. BRUCE.
And on Tuesday the following conclu-
sion of the difficulty was published
To the Pubkc.!-After a full and fair ex-
PLANTATION between us, we, the undersign-
ed agree to the following as is evidenced
by our signatures at the bottom OF this
paper:
W. W. Bradley understood VIM. Glenn
to say that the charge for the circulation
of a certain card headed ''And they all fol-
low me'' was to be entered against John
3. Evans and he so entered it. VIM. Glenn
Saws that he did not so express himself and
further says that John B. Evans was not
the man, but admits that during the con-
yersation the name of John b. Evans was
mentioned. He further admits hel remark
ed at the time ''don't say anything about
the distribution" because in a business
point of view he did not feel that he had
the right to make known to the public
matter which he was not authorized to
give publicity to. He acknowledges hay
ing seen the bills charged to John b. Evans
and while he intended to have the charge
corrected Evans not being the debtor)

Guilty arising out OF it.
Tt seems that there was misunderStand-
ing between us and in order to place our
selves right before the public, we desire
this card be published. We do not deem 1t
necessary to go into all the particulars
arising from this misunderstanding. ALI
insults offered to each other in the sew
eral circulars are very much regretted and
retracted. VIM. GLENN.

THE EVENING.
The abo We cards, all of which, except the
three last which were added, were
on the streets during the afternoon, kept
public attention excited for a while, but
later in the evening the voting got SO hot
that the people forgot all about the circu-
lar controversy. A large number OF Con-
seryatives who had had honest doubts
about the movement being one sanctioned
by a majority of the party were astonlshed
at the magnitude Of the vote and COM
menced pouring IN. Dodgers were issued
from this office every half hour announc-
ing the tremendous vote as it increased,
and there was rejoicing in the heart OF
every true Conservative. Gathered at the
polls there were crowds of laughing Con-
servatives having their fun out of two OF
three Radicals who had been hanging
around hoping the thing would prove
failure.
When the vote passed 400, the excite
ment was wild, and at the closing of the
polls at s O'Clock the announcement was
hailed with general congratulation
COUNTING THE VOTE.
The Primary commissioners assembled
a little after O'Clock for the counting of
the votes, which, with SO many candidates,
was tedious matter. A large crowd as
sembled at the VINDICAToR Office, which
was lighted up, and there were many anx-
ious candidates around there till after mid
night. The counting was continued till
O'Clock in the morning. when the commits
sioners announced the following as the
FINAL RESULT.
