The E.OuGGuR Primaries.
LEEsHURG'IG- S

LEhSBURG, Va, sept. -, 1856.
To the editor Of the Alexandria Gazette:
The information you have received frcn1
cur recent primaries is so erroneous hope
you will allow short space for correction.
The only object Lave is TO correct any i'm
preston that may prevail in regard to the
strength Of Capt. Foster in this county.
Our district here was actively canvasssd by
the friends Of Gen. Lee, and they were re.
warded by nm attendance ut the primary on
Saturday OF from 10 to 20 in a crowd of 800.
Fosters friends could have instructed their
delegates with ease (made them iron ciad)
if they had needed to, but they were select.
Ell with especial care and needed no instruc.
tons. In Mt. Gilead district it was not
thought they would mako contest, and
though it seems they worked diligently they
only succeeded in making personal contest
over the delegates, and beat the selected
ticket by one vote, three of those votes be
ing illegal ones. There is 10 truth in any
statement that Capt. Foster is not n prime
favor;te in Loudoun. Had there been a
primary election between Gen. Lee and
himself he would have gotten 1900 out oil
the 2,753 democratic votes, aud in general
election between thu two Foster could carry
$500 out of the / 800 votes Of the county
Please say this much in Justice to our county
and candidate. j BEE.

Eye WITNESSES Of Mr.. Sedgwick's recent
lark" in the city OF Mexico publish &C.
counts OF it in the New Orleans newspapers
in which the colors used by that gentleman
on the occasion referred 10 are represented
as more brilliant than the brightest crimson
buraing. But, for all that Secretary Bayard
says Mr.. Sedgwick's personal denial Of the
truth Of such accounts is amply sufficient
AS Mr.. Sedgwick is now said to have gone
to Mexico in private capacity, no body in
this country, except his employer, has q
right to object to anything be did there
but still Americans don't like to be
told by their Secretary of State that white
is black Nor are they likely to believe that
Mr.. Bayard will pay Mr.. Sedgwick's bill
out of his own pocket though he may say
that that gentleman went to Mexico in a
private capacity.
