er the narrator and subjects are friends or |
enemies, and then, If the version OF II e |
matter IL worth listening to, go to the other |
man and get his statement OF the case, and |
you will often be Rstonisbed TO find what
new light is thrown upon what you thought
before very dirty oct or remark. There
are two sides to nearly every question, and
all OF us have some good as well as bad in
our composition. The world would, indeed
be great deal better oil II il would never
listen to slanderers aud gossips and would
drink in as attentively the praise as the de-
traction OF men. Above all, it would do
well to beware of those men who never
have any good to say about others Paris

OUR CONGRESSMAN.
Many papers Of the state are endeavoring
to force Hon. Olin WellbOrn, our able rep
resentative in congress, to give expression
rs TO whom he will support, orrather whom
he will not support, for the speaker Of the
house. The Bulletin has no hesitancy in
saying that Mr. Wellborn's constituency
have Implicit confidence In their represen.
tatye, and believe that he will, when the
proper time arrives, cast bis vote in the
right direction, and where II will do the
most good for his state and section. IL is q
matter Of impossiblity for Mr., Wellborn,
or any other representative man, TO decide
questions OF this kind before they come up.
Circumstances as well as principle have
muoh to do in controlling and influencing
the actions OF statesman on all ques-
lions OF this character 1t would be unwise
and imprudent for Mr.. Wellborn to avow
his allegiance TO the standard OF Mr.. Ran
dall, when possibly circumstances over
which he has no control, will force him to
use his influence and vote against him. Mr.
d dali -. taNs. l.
there is no telling and II he should, per-
haps he may have opposition in a person
wholly unfit for the Office. Before you cen
sure too severely bide the time and see
where Mr.. Wellborn stands Sharp criti-
clsm will not change his convictions, If he
has air eady formed any, which we do not
think he has, but is waiting until congress
shall have convened, and then he will give
the MISTER more thoughtand consideration
and will act as his judgment Dictates Al

HON. oLIN wELLBoRN,
For two terms Colonel Welhorn repre-
sented the third congressional district, his
majority in the second election being larger
than the entire vote received by any other
candidate for congress that year, and he is
a. this time serving as representative OF the
sixth district, having been elected by ten
thousand majority. These repeated en-
dOrsements by the voters OF his district is
sufficient evidence that Colonel Wellbor1
has represented the interest OF his district
faithfully and we'll. On every occasion
when the interests OF the people are ut
stake, he has been found on the right side
and IL Is there we expect TO see him in the
coming session OF congress. He has neyei
cast o vote against the interest OF his peO
pie, nor will he do so now. We are glad Il
make these remarks from the fact that sew
eral papers in the state have seen proper o
late TO assail Colonel Wellborn Tor wha
they imagined no would do in congress. Ii
this connection we would, also, suggest I,
those congressman, so ready to be inter
viewed, that just as long rs our preseu
representative Cond acts himself MS well Il
he has heretofore had the honor Of doing
we will send him back 10 sit with them AN,
they need have no fears about our distric
and it5 able and popular representatives
