A TETE-A-IETE WITH THE HERALD.

is running for governor, devoted
two columns, situated in the most
prominent spot in his paper, to
the editor of the RECORD last
week, and not wishing to be out
done in generosity by any Davis
organet, especially one recently
converted to the cause and just
freshly dripped with droppings
from the great political throne,
we shall endeavor, with apologies
to the public and a deep appre-
citation Of the hugeness Of the job
before us, proceed to refund be-
fore the accrue of interest.
First, we hope to jar not upon
the feelings OF the editor Of the
Herald when we give our honest
opinion, that, however lofty and
inspiring his intentions may have
been, his article contained more
bellyache to the inch than any
thing we have read lately, and
was really more an apology for
the course of the Herald than an
attempt at vindication. In our
weak and stammering way a
couple of weeks ago, the reader
remembers, we were constrained
to give the editor of the Herald
some reasons why Van might be
running for governor. We did
this because the editor Of the Her.
aid stated emphatically that he
could not see why Van was in the
race, and that he did not blame
Davis for ignoring him. We
were fool enough to expand our
chest measurement two notches
because of our ability to thus en-
tighten our friend, for he bears
the reputation of being quite a
learned gentleman and lawyer.
But, gentle reader, would you
believe it? After all our pains
taking in gathering together and
dispensing this information, the
promoter of the Herald did not
appreciate it, even in the smallest
degree. He intimates that 1t IS
rank and glittering presumption
for us to think to enlighten him
in any way. He even says the
RECORD snaps at Davis papers
like a "common fist" And there
he has US faded. We cannot
savey the point. Just what a
"common fist" one that snaps, is
we do not know. Is it a brute,
bird or Kissing serpent? Has it
four legs, two legs, or does 1t
crawl, wonder? Can it be that
the editor of the Herald assaulted
Webster and meant to compare
us to that little animal, the flee?
And, right here, we wish to
state that the RECORD has been at
friendly war with Jeff Davis pa
pers long, long before the present
editor of the Herald blew over the
transom into journalism And
we might add, also, that we have
not flopped about like a lone
bean in wash-tub in the seven
wears we have been editing these
columns. Yes, we were belng
assaulted by Jeff Davis pianos
and assaulting the same several
wears before the editor OF the
Hardy Herald began to dish up
copy.
We wish the editor Of the Her.
aid to understand that his sudden
flop to the ranks of Governor
Davis, so far as we have been
able to gather, is goading no one
to desperation. The Herald has
a perfect right to its opinions
and perhaps it might change them
again without doing serious IN
iurv to the commonwealth, but as
a public journal, when it is called
upon to assign a valid reason for
the change, it ought to have
