The TATTLER has received, with the
compliments of paper published some
where down in the Pines, handsome
Autograph portrait of Andrew Albright
He is announced beneath the cut showing
the Joel Parker-like rusticity Of his face,
as our" candidate in 1886. Fortunately
the particular tour" does not in this case
represent any appreciable quantity of the
brains or responsibility or influence Of the
press of New Jersey, and there is no very
great danger of Mr.. Andrew Albright
ever being more than the candidate Of the
particular "our" from whom his portrait
comes. His candidature is not therefore
predestined to give either of the great
parties of the State very perceptible
shake-up. The paper in the Pines that
favors us with his portrait shows singular
oversight 10 neglecting to say for what
particular place Mr.. Andrew Albright is
sour candidate" At one time be was
candidate for a Republican nomination
for Alderman in Newark. When be
couldn't get that, he bloomed out as a
Democratic candidate for Governor. His
tory shows he didn't get that. His last
notable public appearance was at the State
Fair when he held an umbrella over Mr..
Abbetl's head and introduced the crowd
that surged around him to the enext Gov
