The Harsh Treatment Of WIN. IL. Smith.

The one painful feature of yesterdays election
in this city, the treatment Of Hon. VIM. X.
smith by his democratic assocatcs--we cannot
call them his democratic friends. la every ward,
on every street corner, democrats were standing
with propositions to sell out Smith. Aud
they offered him for sale cheap. If they could
not get a vote for Haskell, they would take one
for any of the county candidates. Smith was
everywhere the available staple for political ex-
change. Even in has own ward, where he is held
in such high personal esteem, they run him some
% votes below Haskell, and not content with that
they snapped him OFF so reckessly that he was
put six votes behind Bean and five behind Ben.

two, to their old associate, William II. Smith. In
deed the democrats of Augusta, yesterday, played
with their ticket the game of "Snap the whip"
Smith was snapped off every time from the end of

Didn't Like His own Looks on the Demo-
cratic Ticket.

cratic Ticket.
The honoled named Of Joseph II. Williams has
been frequently seen on the republican ticket in
past yesrs-iour times Il, least At every such
election Mr.. Williams voted the entire republican
ticket, Including his own name. Yesterday when
he picked up The democratic ticket in ward five,
Mr. W illiams deliberately Gu; his own name off
of it. Mr.. Williams evidently does not relish
democratic company any more than they seem to
relish him. The anupathy is "kind o mutus
ike" The plain, straightforward thing for MIR.
Williams TO do, is to return to his Old polite al
faith, and give the next twenty years Of his life
as he has given the last twenty-to the support
of republican prime pes. We will welcome him
back with cordial good will. Like the schoolboy
that went fishing on Sunday-he may be freely
forgiven on the ground that he "has not cotthed
nothing"
