w. j. Russell, for the Mccormick
Harvesting Machine Company. was in
Ironton yesterday. Mr.. K. is hustler,
and as he says he sells the best machine
on earth. there is no reason why he
should not make a success of his busi-
ness. He will thoroughly canvass
this and adjoining counties, and our
farmer friends may put reliance in his
representations. He is square in his
dealings, and will make no misrepre-
sentations.

Considerable space is taken in this
issue by the correspondence from An
napolis. No one can more greatly re-
gret its subject than does the editor of
the REGISTER; but there are too many
names behind the resolu-
tions to ignore them, and if the things
charged are true. the public has a
right to know them. II they are un-
true. or are exaggerated, Mr.. Walker
has the privilege Of publicly setting
forth his side of the case. At his re-
quest, made yesterday morning, we at
first agreed to let the whole matter lie
over until next week, when his reply
should have appeared side by side with
the charges. But subsequently, for
good and sufficient reasons to ourself,
we rescinded the agreement. and the
are printed in this issue.
MIR. w. says he will respond next week,
aud asks suspension OF judgment un-
til then. His request is reasonable
one, and no doubt the public will COM
ply with it.
