IuDGE WADDILLs DENIAL.

JUDGE WADJllSL > DA--Na<A~.
one of Captain Lambs managers last
night showed a Dispatch man the fol-
lowing which explains Itself:
To Whom 1t May Concerns:
| am Informed that a rumor is abroad
I'm this community 10 the erect that L
have furnished money to conduct Captain
John Lambs campaign for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Congress, and also
that some years ago Captain Lamb
gtumpcd this district for me when ] was
the Republican candidate for Congress.
and that these rumors were used against
Captain Lamb on Thursday last In the
primary election.
| wish to say that these rumors are
absolutely and unqualifedly false; there
is not the least shadow Of foundation for
them l should have supposed that the
absurdity Of my furnishing funds to Sc
cure the nomination of a Democratic can
didate would have been sufficient refu-
tation Of these absurd charges.
