BY tho DSmOcratic STATE Executive Soiu-
mittee TO the Friends of Hancock and
Enslish-Congratulati for the Past.
and Work for ths Future.
PARKERsBURG, October 20
10 m, Democracy Of The STATE Of Ijest Ir-
giHio:
The Democracy OF the State are to be
congratulated on the splendid victory
won by them at the late State election,
after most bitter and unscrupulous
fight upon the part OF our adversaries.
We have increased the majority in
this State more than 5000 votes
over any other election. Governor
Jackson and the whole State ticket are
elected BY majority OF l6,2o7 votes.
Tie Democracy are appealed to to stand
Lv our noble standard-bearer, General
Hancock, on the 2nd OF November, and
signalize their true devotion to
principles again, as they have
done in the past. We have
information that our unscrupulous
opponent, the Republicans, have raised
large stim OF mcney and sent agents
into our State 20 corrupt and influence
our voters. Will the sturdy Democracy
oiour young, prosperous mountain State
allow such means to prevail, and wrest
from us our State and turn it over TO
the Republican party-a party seeking
To- overthrow the will of the people by
means OF such corrupting iniiu-
ences? We are also informed that
the Republicans are proposing, to un-
susfecting Democrats, to give several
votes for Hancock, for one vote for their
candidates for Congress, iii hopes OF de-
ceiving Democrats and thereby securing
the election of a Republican representa-
ton in the next Congress from thi,
State.
Democrats, make no such arrange
mCnts. Do not allow yourselves to be
deceived. The State islargely Democratic
and 10 stand together at the November
election is all that will be necessary to
insure us a granl victory in both Ma
,ional and Congressional elections.
Let every Democrat DO ms duty on
the day oi election. Letevsry one come
to the polls. Let all participate in the
great victory that awaits a united anu
harmonious effort.
We have information that assures
Ms o. the triumphant election OF General
Hancock AMI our entire Congressional
,icke, on the End OF November next,
and we hope West Virginia will retain
her proud position in the galaxy OF
Democratic States.

No News of the Alleged Outbreak at
Cabul.

CabuI.
LONDON, Ostobcr 21.-The most re-
cent official intelligence possessed by
the Government leaves no doubt that
the district around Csbul is in state OF
disturbance, and home officials thus ac-
count for the break in communications
between Cabul and Simla. The British
political agent at Cabul was constant in
his COMMUNICATIONS with the Indian
Government. and the fact OF these
communications being interrupted, d,-
duced from the absence of Afghan news
in the Niceroy's recent kilograms, tends
to belief in the probability OF an al
legged outbreak having occurred.

son closed, each occupying an hour and
a quarter. The audience was mainly
Democratic, but Hutchinson soon placed
himself IN rapport with the audience,
