The foregoing appeared in our issue
Of last Thursday. July 9th, and is I'M
doubtedly not accurate as to the state
ment that Fredericksburg aud Spotsyl-

containing it were neither written nor
inspired by and did not pass under the
eye Of the usual management Of the

ment il manifest. The Free Lance
aims to publish no statement as facts
unless they be such and hence this
correction, which is made Of its own
motion, and not by request.

How The Lance arrives at the above
conclusion or secures such information
we are at loss TO know Its representa-
tive evidently has not been in our bail
wick for a long time. else it would be
well aware that outside of few office
holders and possibly some others there
is scarcely a man in the county who is
not enthusiastically in favor of Sena-
torial election by the people; and in
variRbly those you meet in town. VII
lage, hamlet and at every cross-road
express themselves as heartily in favor
of a primary ballot whereby the popu-
lar sentiment as TO choice for Senator
NAV be ascertained. AS Mr.. Martin,
through the committee Of which he is
supreme dictator. has shown in every
instance unmitigated hostility to q pri'
mary ballot the people have naturally
come to the conclusion that he is afraid
Of them and thus an enemy to the plan
of popular Senatorial election. II a
fair and impartial primary ballot can
be had as we are trying to get Though
the Martin men, almost to a man. are
opposed to it, we venture the assertion
that the Tylerites will be found largely
in the ascendancy. While we are aware
that The Lance, for the past year or so,
has been an able champion OF Mr.. Mar
tin, yet if our contemporary will lend
its aid in securing the primary ballot
we ask, The Lance may never be COM
PEELED in the future to resort to the in
accuracy of guessing or coDjecturing as
to the relative strength Of Tyler and
Martin in the county of Madison. -
