We are inclined to think that Mr..
Cameron's Abingdon anecdotes were not
so bad as the Lvnchbugg Nelcs's CORE
spondent represented them to be. We
have received hint ms to them which
satisfies us that ut least one of them
owes its paternity to distinguished
Debt-Paycr. Whilst, therefore, we do
not ourselves consider the anecdote in
question fit to be told to crowd, yet as
we know that it has been told by better
men than we, we cannot consider 1t fair
to make its telling heinous crime in
Col. Cameron. However, we suppose
that he Will never tell it again, as he
ought not to.-Richmond Dispatch Of Sat
urddg.
The DISPATCH has too much manli-
ness to become n party to the vulgar as
sault made on Col. Cameron for an an
ecdote that has been told by many of the
Funder stumpcrs in Va. The facts are
that the anecdotes alluded to were told
in the most decent language possible,
and were deprived of the coarsencss usu-
ally embodied in them by other speakers.
The fact that they are the only point Of
Funder attack is confession as to the I'M
prcgnable character of his speech, which
no one of his assalants was bold enough
to attempt to answer at Abingdon or he's
the timerity to undertake in the press.
The same carpers have apotheosized Zeb
Vance in the temple Of Funder worship,
and Camcron's two anecdotes would not
have lasted Vance for ten minutes por-
ton of one of his speeches. 1t is as the
verdict of the people that Col Cameron's
Abingdon speech was, in point of digni-
ty, argument and dccency, one Of the
very finest ever delivered in Abingdon.
1t is worthy of notice that those Who
consider Abingdon the hub Of all that is
aristocratic and high toned, assert that
after making the tour of all the noun
tain counties in the S. w. he told anec-
dotes there which he would not have
told in more refined society. According
to such logic, Abingdon, then, would be
classed as the least heightened Of the
eight localities he has made speeches in.
How is that for highG
