Mr.. A. NJ. Ralnbo kindly devotes a por-
ton of the columns of the COurant of this
days issue. to calling your correspondent

All this was called forth by an article pub
lished in the 1NTELLIGENCER Of last
Thursday, wherein We asked Mr.. Rambo
if he had not voted for Mr.. John A. Slade,
Democrat, for school director. Mr..
Rambo informs lis that he prints his paper
to please himself. We do not doubt that,
and must say that We think he is easily
pleased, but all this does not answer our
question. We believe that Mr.. Rambo
did vote for Mr.. Slade, but, if he did not,
why did he publish Il long article from
Marietta correspondent commencing Mr..
Slade, Democrat, to Republican voters
And all this, too, in Republican paper
Ii Mr.. Rambo did vote for Mr.. Slade no
one will censure him for it, for Mr. SIade
will make rs good a school director as any
man in town but if Mr.. Rambo did net
vote for several Democrats against Re-
publicans some of his stalwart" friends
did, and they defeated a portion Of the
Republican ticket. Mr. Rambo, in all his
talk, makes no denial.
