Stale Pis pensnry Law, which is thnt it is n stupendous humbug, begotlon by nn alien, nursed \>ft cliquo of asm s and reared to i i k present, proportions through tho MH'dium o^actional and local prcjnd'eo. ll in therefore need loss io say thnt 1 would not now fa vor 13. H. Tillman lor (lovernor on (lint platform, but I cannot sit silent and hoo the grandest lender of mm (lint tho Statu has produced since .lohn C. On 11. on n traduced without cause. Cer'ftin newspapers in litis State can see no goon in Bon Tillman and siezo upon any excuse to taunt and worry him. 'I he latest and llirnsjosf cause for attach nroso in the fact that a couple of weeks ago the friends of lion. Geo. P. Tillman (Hen's brother) placet! him in nomi* " nation for Governor, and souio re porter in Washington fabricated an ? interview with tho Senator in whieh he is said to have stated that In* i would oppose his brother for the! iioniinat on should his health permit. This, certain newspapers took as n texi lor n bitter assault, one editor saying thnt Hen '1 ill man's hutrcfi of his t rothor was fiendish, which ro mark "Tho Stat*'" took apparent ex ception to, and in the course of tho most atrociously sarcastic article wo hav?> seen in weeks, stigmatized Hen^ij action as mere selfishness.

It. Tillman. By this it will be seen that both of tho editorials referred to aro pnerih* find malicious, but, weak and trans parent as they are they senui to have stung the object of them so badly thnt he has felt consitnined to reply to thorn. That reply wiil perhaps he published in this is?mc of this paper, ??r, if not now, 1 d? r. It is not n strong letter from the writer's stand |#o nt of strength, but it is rather acrimonious in dealing with his cnl * ? 7 ? " ? uutnintors and will probably serve its purpose.
