MEsSRs. EDs:-In to-day's IHteRigeneer
|September 2Sth, appears a short sketch
entitled "0ld Sanford" " The subject OF
the sketch lives here in Wellsburg, and
emphatically denies the story. He says
he never was n slave, or acted in the cl-
pacity of servant to Alex. Campbell.
Furthermore that Mr.. C. never owned a
sugar plantation. Also that he San
ford) never was in Nashville, and that the
only money he ever carried for Mr.. c. was
a few hundred dollars in Confederate
scrip" that wasn't worth ten cents Some
of Mr.. C.'s creditors would be pleased if he
were to send one of bis ''bOdy servants"
north with the same amount he says he
trusted ''0ld Sanfordn with during the
slate unpleasantness," 1t is very anus
ing to hear SaDfOpd's version Of the bonn
bastie story. LII.

Chance For Meek.
To the Editor Of the Register:
SIR:-Seeing Mr.. Burt, the laber agita-
tor, at the meeting on Tuesday night, took
such great interest in the workingman, it
is matter of great curiosity to know how
much he is making out of the broils he
helps TO keep up in this community, and
seeing that his financial investment in it
is no greater than the communistic wag-
ging of his chin, is it not fair request to
ask him to divide his profits of from four to
five dollars per day, which he makes out OF
disposition, among some of the several
thousand workmen in this city who aver
age less than 81. 80 per day, and, unlike
him, have to work with head and hand
from ten to twelve hours per day as hard
as they can pull out?
By answering this question you will
oblige one citizen who is glad to get work
all the year round at Sl.50 per day, and
has little piece of property that he wishes
to save from the wreck that is sure to re-
suit from such teachings.

What Does Meek Mean?

To he Editor Of The Register:
Sir:-I find the following language at
tributed to Hon. w. $. Meek: 1--WE be-
lieve that punishment should be the fate
of deserter, and with Gods help we shall
punish him" What does Mr.. Meek
mean? Does he mean to kill the Hon. 5.
a. Kepner because that gentleman
elected to take care of the newspaper in
which all his savings are invested? De-
serters are usually put TO death. Mr..
Meek, fear you are bold, bad man.
You have gone just little too far. This
community will never uphold a man or
organization entertaining the atrocious
sentiments quoted above. If Mr.. Meek
correctly represents Union No. 40, then
the quicker that Union bids farewell to
this meek of the woods" the better.

1t may have been courageous in Mr..
Meek, surrounded by his dupes and inn
piously invoking the aid Of the Supreme
Being. to threaten TO punish me, but he
will display more valor and show 10 the
public that his talk was not cowardly bun
combe, if he will undertake the job in
person. SAMUEL A. KEPSER.

Even the most courageous have felt some
dread at the approach of the 18th, and al
though they have earnestly asserted that
they did not believe in Virgins, they have
m felt that it would be more comfortable
to live in Charleston after the 10Th. The
Indications are exceedingly favorable, and
there are no premOnitionS OF approaching

study 10 the subject, say there is no dan
