~D. R. FEARTER,

J. HIrannnx McLANm,
S eicrtary.
There has b)oon ai good deali of
random firing along our political
lines,lately ; and it 1s time to take
better aimu, as we all see that this
kind of shooting is doing no good,
'if no hiarm.
It is no use to argue tis ques
tion, it being simply .prepostterous
to entertain the present condition of
things a being normal. There is
nuot a fair- minded manm in this nowm
ty, who cain, at this present time,
pretend to say .that tihe "Citizens'
Ticket' is a D)emuocratic ticket.
Whatever it may have been in its
iincipioney, it has degenerated into
the true-blue Radical stripe. All
imen must noknowmledge this fact,
anid preparoe for the emergency. If
Caiptain- Cl(awneyimagined, at one
time, thirt ahe was .t.h,candidato of a
stronig 'whito faction, haes lhe not
siutiieiint intelligence to have seen
his miistako hefore.now-? Doe~s lhe
-not,.oe that his conduct is daily
alenatingmlhis-b)est friends? At the
same time.-hio cannot impute any
blame to them, as every honorable
manir camne .out of the nominating
conmvent ion-with time ji raconyictionm
thtall.-wa. well. We ,all mreljed
implicitly <o sOnpiain ii!lowney's
IPledgea, and noer ,once 'thought
jthat;sopatriotio a man could 'be
1iun ledj ,iuto aOontmfptible a
soe.oo as thme KEant"ad-IoCarley
oumbroglio. Bosides3, 'we ,country
neu,le want to kmmw whatotMeom
make. Did they go into the nomi
nation with the double purpose of
forcing their candidate on us if they
could, or in case they fiiled. to
attempt, or have atte-!mpted by
hired miniohA, iris disgraceful
movement carried on by a corporal's
guard of white mn followed by the
remirreced Radical beorde ? We
are of the opinion that 'thcso
men have not the mora) courago to
acknowledgo their wrong, or that
they thought to ciirry favor in the
beginning, aid nlow dare not bick
down, from fear of persorial injury.
Captainl Clowricy has disappointed
overy man who had any faith in him,
by not coming out boldly, and say,
ing that his naine must hot be u.od
against tho regular nominee, and
in'cao it went to the polls that ill
ballots east for him should be
coun1ted as scattoring. This would
has been the ring of tho true
m.11AL .. But as the matter now
stands, it seems that hte wishes to
prostituite tho political welfare of
this county for personal motives.
This may be patriotism, but if so,
God give us an'ything elso. Does
CAptain Clownoy intend to run this
rco out, knowing he is astrido the
Rldical nag, when he promismel, as
an'mmin of honor, or had the promimes
Ima1e for him by men of honor, to
rido 'Dmnocrmic stovic only ? This
ik the question W(o watft Anl "vered.
Vt do not want it answered )y the
fqufd of appetiers run.n1ilig this
ainorialy, for we are of the opinion
that thmy will 141ay Lnythiing that
scums to forward thleir ignominious
mo-111 ; but wo want it directly
from the mouth of Captain Clowney
himself. We men of th;is Dark
Corner cannot give iup a man as
VOid of a1ll honor, iniegrity, patriot
iim and self.-rcspect., unmtil we have
induibiLtblo proof--which proof wve
will have, if he intends to rtn as ithe
"Citizons' " Candidate to the.n 1d ( tf
thii campaign. We cannot believe
that Captaii Clowinoy will allow him
Self to be ruined by the act-ioig of a
few s-1hnmering demailigogues. Come
out and say to u1s, whose hearts it,
would -do good, that you abhor this
diabolical schome, that y<>u will noL
be m1ado tho stoppinig stono for
Radicalism to once more Iount the
political platform in Fair- field county
md we will r.oplace you in oilr von
lidenfe aind esteem. But those
iervilp political intriguers--where
mill they be 1 Their purpose has
%talmpod them with -tlel brand of
political infamy, which will follow
them to their graves. 'hey havo
strac:zed thtilm Ivo whila plotting,
tholgh Nmwi.ttiogly w hope) the
mre destruction of one of Famiti&eld's
nost honored rons. We would
lavo Captain Clowncy to reflect on
Ahis subjeet ; to allow his calm
judgmeit to guide him in his Con
lusions, and Ihus determino if lie
las not, in tihe lheat of passion,
ilowed himself to be made the tool
in a most corrupt and despicab)le job.
This is no time for imen to allow
p)ersonaml umsiters to influence thiem,
for our1 existenco as a party is to bie
detterLminett in th.is issue. W'e
siumply ask ever'y man to do his duty
as implosed by his pledges5, and all
will be well. Evi ry man who has
joined a D)emnocratic Club, whether
1 three-day member or always a
member, is comnyelled, .if ho consults
his honor, to) vote for tho .regular
nominees, and in case ho lhas no
honor, he will suit the opposition
bettor. "Citizens," do you not
know that you are stamping your-.
selv'os as scalaw~ags, if you carry out
your intention of splitting oil' from
[Ii- party?i But
'"whiI mlhe'intup holds out.," &c.
oconmo back .to your allegiance,
nnd (quit holding up ase a target a
mian whose honor is a jewel w~hen
bis reason reigns suprneme.

A. E. Outerbridge, Jr., of tho Philai

giv'en an example of ,the infinito
div'isibilit-y of matter, by oxhibiting
before the Franklin Institute romo
thin tilms tof ,.gQld obtained by
electric deOpoitionl upon copper and'
afterwar'd detached. These pices~
of gold leaf were tranpamrent,. and
gave a green color to transmit ted
light.. Mlr. Outerbridge has thus
p)roduced films of gold so thin that
one grain of tihe.metal would cover
nearly four . square feet. This is
10,0001 timosthminner than ordinry
