the Courts-where the Courts are run by their
tools, like the bulldozing Courts of South Caro-

If there was any wrong in it, it was on the part
of johnson, who offered the temptation, and paid
the money. Johnson was defeated for Elector
in the State Convention; but soon a rookery was
raised that DIR. Vernon was corrupt; he was
showed off the track, and the Central Committee
put johnson in his place, because he was honest
and reliable. Now, it is charged he has secured
the Office of messenger by bribery. If this is
true, be is the guilty one. Hughes is sharp, and
took care of the bird in the hand.
