the REG1srER reported me correctly when
he ouotes me as follows: Secure behind

that was not by an assault OF argument OF :

The audacity of their offer to bride our yot-

Tell these Boosting Republicans they ask

disboporable practice of the party In power
from their President down, viz: OF trying
10 keep itself in power by attempting to
buy the votes Of the country by the
wages it had filched from poor government
employees, whose tenure OF empioyment
stood upon givingof that they hardly could

particularly accurate in the substance oil
what was said. should likely have been
imprudent enough TO have insulted so in-

address that evening, by saying they were
willing to receive the brides that can

Good. They have secured one or two pro

are heard from. Our party is not for sale:
/ said so in my speech. with heart full OF
energy and sincerity. Therefore, it has
been out of power so long. We pr oppose to
vote principles against your dollars next
Tuesday, and here in Democratic West
Virginia. where you have not the machin-

principles will win. Can we have any atti-
dayits, that part of the Hubbell levy has
not arrivedY If so are they going to use
it? And is it really possible that Mr..
Goods worthy opponent is unconscious OF
the outlays the Government officers and
his party agents are making for his cause
and himself? When they disclaim, then
shall we reply as to the prospects Of get
ting the goods upon the delivery OF the
spoils. L. u. CRAcRAfr'
