iNr. Eattor.-Being induced By some
friends to take jaunt to Shaunondale
Springs, we went there, and after pleasant
social hour under the trees, passed on to
kabletown, the home OF that sterling and
enterprIsing citizen, L"gan Osburn, SO well
known as progressive man. and who has
done SO much, both by his writings, and ex-
ample. to develope sheep raising and the
agriculture Interests of our county, and
whose name is pow most favorably me q toned
for State Senator.
Thence onward through Myerstown and
the ncighborhood, the home of such sterling
Democrats as Dr. Brown, VIM. Lewis, Henry
Castleman. Charles ConkIyn, George Har-
ris, Hall Wilson, Opie Norris and others
where we found preference for Hon. DanI
Is. Lucas for Congress; not only because his
speeches have gotten the Shenandoah river
appropriations, hut as the most available
man to carry the district.
We found our friends little proud, and
naturally endorsing our last Representative.
that farmer Democrat, VIM. Lewis, for Leg
lsIature, and very many friends for that able
young lawyer and rising scion of Dem ocracy.
Forrest W. Brown, for Comm awcalth's At

With Hancock in the lead and such Judi
cIous preferences in local affairs, let our other
precincts look out for their laureis in Novem>
Der, for there will be rousing majority in
this district

The Jefferson county Republicans at their
convention in Harper's Ferry on Saturday
meek, adopted tho following:
RESOLVED. That for General Hancock, the
Democratic rival of Mr. Garfield, personally
We have nothing but respect, resretting only
that a distinguished Union officer should
allow himself to be made the ca;spaw of a
party. who, if success were possible, would
never think of GROWING him with it. The
fate of the Union General Mcclellan, and
che abolition editor Greeley, is before him,
and be has our tenderest sympathy.
IT'S certainlya pity that General Hancock
has gotten into such dilemma as to need
the "tenderost sympathy" of our Jefferson
county Republican brethren-but, all the
same, We would advise them to reserve at
lesst small portion of it for brother" Gar.

DUFFIELD'S DEMOCRAT.

Col. Dan' Dechort, OF the Harrisonburg
Spirit Of the VALLEY, who was present at our
Ratification Meeting, says Of it:
The Hancock aud English ratification
meeting at Charlestown, W. Va on Satur-
day last, was large and spirited affair. We
reached that town early in the evening OF that
day, and was surprised to see the life and
motion, nay the enthusiasm that manifested
itself IN the preparations for boom over the
National Democratic nominations When

thronged the streets and by shouts and huz-

UOLoRED DEMOCRACY,

The announcement that the Rev. Jas. H.
Carey, tho principal leader of the Colored
Democratic Club of Shepherdstown, would
make Democratic speech here on Saturday
night last, drew together around the stand
at the Court-House large number of our
white citizens, and good many oolorcd
ones, although the majority of the latter, not
being willing to hear the truth from one of
their cwn race, held aloof from the meeting
The speaker addressed his coored brethren
in sound, practical vein, and in the early
part of his speech related that he had been
forewarned that afternoon that be had better
not come to Charlestowu; that the colored
people here intended to ''lay for him." and
he would not return alive. Ho said that he
was better prepared to die than to live, and
that ii he did die he would die in the cause of
Democracy and right; and that whether he
died or lived, Hancock and English would
be the next President and Vice President of
the United States, as they would be whether
the colored voters of Jefferson gave them
their sufrages or not. He asserted that the
emancipation of the slaves was not due to
tho goodness of the Republican party, bat to
the mysterious workings of Divine Provi~
dence; that the Republicans had seen the
opportunity and embraced it, to use them as
tools for their own advancement, and that
they had since the war been greater slaves
than ever before. That they did not exer-
else the free right of suffrage, but only voted
as their Republican masters directed.
Brother" he said, he had sometimes re-
marked to one, chow are you going to votc?"
Promptly the answer would come, 20, l
dunno; haven't heard from Harper's Ferry
yet" The Republican party, he said, was
the party of false promises; and on the other
hand the Democratic party had remained
through all these years unchanged He was
sure of the election of Hancock and English
and believed that four years of bcucfccnt
Democratic admin istration would do more to
conyinse the colored race of their erroneous
beliefs than all the talking that could DO
done. at the same time he warned them to
come into the Democratic camp in time. His
speech throughout was one of earnestness and
kindness to those of his race, and should
have had the effect OF convincing those that
heard him of the soundness of his advice
