On this occasion a lecturs was boing delivered at the Court House, and although the Firemen while - forming in line, (some 120 in number) with their machines, were unusually quiet, refraining from extra noise and commotion in consequence of said lecture, and not one of them, as was fulsely charg- ed, under the in flnence of liquor, still our delect- able, interesting specimen of a School Cormis: sioner from Walton, with all the pomposity and | . ._ ~arrogance of the Pharisee of old, who \ thanked - God that he was not as other men were,\ (and methinks those \ men'' have still more reason to |. be thamkful therefor?) and apparently (disgusted 'that the said Depirtment (a le Walton) did not rotail their water at 2 csonts a glass, etyled them \ Gunken rabble\ .

Under date of March 30th, 1865, on page 589 Renate Journa., 1865, will bo fond the following \Mr Al.aben offered the following preamble and resolutions : Whereas, The policy of rendering State aid to railroad companies, to enable them to reach por- tions of the State mot accessible to canals or river improvements, bas prevailed for mors than twen- ty-five years, and until almost every portion of - the State has received the benefit of such aid ; and, Whereas, No such aid has been received by that portion of the tate lying back and west of the Hudson river, whose natural outiet to market lies between Albany at the bead of tide water, an New York on the seaboard, comprisin of one huodreéd and filty miles ; and, \Whe eas, 'The oniy serious otjsction to opening of this region to the benefit of thesy' i provemonts is Pine Hill, thirty-five miles the Hudson, and the dividing ridge \ betweén the Hodgon and Delaware valleys; now, theJZéore. Resolved, That in view of the fact that this seo tion of the State has contributed eq other sections, in furnishing them wit railroad facilities, it is in justice, due to the peo ple to be benefited by the tunneling gf Pine Hill that whenever sither of the proposed roads shal be built to the foot of Pins Hill on the east side or put in such a state of forwardness as to insure its completion, with a further rgasonable assur- ance, that when Pine Hill is tunneled said road will be extended so as to intersect cither the Erie . Central or Susquehanna railroad, that the State remove said obstruction by tunneling the same or aiding such work to the amount of $500,000.\ Again under date ot April 2lat, 1865, will be found the following : \ Mr. Allaben called for the consideration o the resolution heretofore offered by him.

Hubbard, Jr., for Senator. Mr. Hubbard was selected two years ago to the State Senate. He has proved himself an able snd honest representative. Hedid not desire ma re- nomination, but at the Sematorial Convention the delegates at once nominated him by acclamation No man in the late Namste has a better record than Mr. Hubbard. No radical paper questions his course while in the Semato, or can find a word or fault. He is admired by the Democracy, be- cause he is a good man. It is an honor to the people to have euch a representative, and when they have a chance, they should vote for him. - Let the people show their appreciation of an hon- est and faithful cfficer, in again electing Mr Hubbard. Gratitude and interest dictate such a course. » en What a Republican Senator says of John F. Hubbard, Jr. The editor of this paper had a conversation s few days since with a Republican Stste Semator, {in regard to the re-nmomination of Senator Hub: ard in this district, when he said : \Hubbard is a good manu. If a Demovrat is to be'eiscted in your district, I do not know, among ali my aequsintances, a better man to oo cupy the position, than Senator Hubbard.\ This is the kind of man the Democracy delight to honor. When the people bave such a candi- date in the fisld, they should vote for him. 4~<ip--0 How Men Change! Four or five years ago, and we beliere during the whole war, Roman H (Hleason, the Republi can candidate for Assembly in this district, acted with the Democrats, and was considered by tht Republicans as a sympathizer with the rebels - He became a bondholder, and thought he could make more capital out of the Republicans thar bs could out of the Democrats, and, presto! change !! over be went, bead, neck, hoesls, bond» and greenbacks, into the Radical camp with the negro-worshippers. He was baptized and recsived into full fellowship in the Republican party, or the occasion of Horace (Gresley's great meeting at Roxbury, when he was made one of the officers of the meeting. He wentover to get cfi:e. The bait took. He had money! The Radicals like such men. They don't care a fig about principles -they are played out with them. They are rea- dy to swallow the biggest copperhead in the world, if he will associate with them, vote their ticket, and say that a megxo is as good as a white man. If he does this, he is \loyal &1@ en- titled to a front seat in their ranks, and rsssivo a place on their ticket, - . The question now is, will the people elect Ro- man H (Gleason to the legislature? We hop not. We have had too many such Astemblymen already. They are just the kind of mor the lobbyists want-they can be changed so eanily. e nn ¢ fp ~~~ sarees We notice on the part of our Radical cotempo- raries, the Republican and Express, and also among the friends of the Republican candidate for School Commissioner, a desire to convict our fellow towns mom, Mr. MoArthur, of many grave offences, both against God and man. We have always known Mr. MoArthur from kis boyhood up. He has ever been straight-forward, temperate arnd in- dusgnous, meriting the highest honors as & teach- er, in his town county and State, and stands as high above the vemal bickerings of his enmemics as heaven is higher than eartk. - -| We should infer from the conduct of our op: ponents that they were in the position of drown: Ing men grasping for straws ; that they hoped to have their odions and unpopular candidate escape scrutiny by parading his innoosnt opponent as a monster before the public gases. Away! their garbage ceases longor to serve as an article of food. It has been digested again and sgain, and the people are is ready to cast it of as they sro their fanatital, weak and disgusting candidate. tmm @ & O onc w @3° The Delhi radical papers are busy tradus- ing the Democratic candidate for School Com- missioner in this district. One charge is that he rejoiced over the defeat of our army at Ball Ran. It is hardly nocessary to say that this is a false. hood, and has not the shadow of a }foundstfon.- He was not in Dalhiat the time. It is the old song of \ rebel,\ \ secessionist,\ \ copperhead,\ and \ aympathizer with the rebels,\ which is re. peated against Damocrats on the eve of every election John W.

It would be sufficient for the brutal and lying attack of the Delaware Express on our candidates, Orson M. Allaben, for Member of Assembly, and John W. McArthur for School Commissioner, to @>-trflioma» shamelessly untrue. But as the editor of the z- press appears to seek notoriety by inventing false- noods which the father of all liars would scork to circulate, it may not be inappropriate to give the subjact a passing thought, and a little ventil- lation. | * So far as Mr. Allabon is concerned, his wall- known character for purity and integrity in the many positions he has held as Supervfsor, Assom- blyman and Senator, and the many services he has performed for the benefit of the County and Assombly district in which he lives, nud tho gpom- manding influence he would exort for the district, carnot be belied away by a paper that boasts of two hundred subscribers, and which is growing beautifully less in the hands of a brainless fa- aatic. As to Mr. McArthur, our nominse for School Commissioner, his record compares most favorably with his Republican opponent, so far as loyalty is concerned, for hoe farnished a suustituts and paid for him, who, wa have no doubt, did some good service. But how about his Republisain opponent, Am- brose A. Knapp? He first engaged in the bounty broakerage business at Norwich, for the purpose of making a few \ loil\\ dollars, and when that business became unprofitable, and just at the close of the war, when the bounaty for logal men had «dvanced to $1,200, (about his price as estimated by himself) he enlisted as a vallient volunteer, not for a soidier but for the and afte: having marched up the hill, marched down again tShare, as Sam Miller would say, is loyalty by the eap. As far us qualification for the office is concern- ed, Mr. McAsthur is well and favorably» known hy very many in the district, as faithful, capable and straight-forward, giving merit its oue when ever found,without partiality qrd without hypocrisy . Finally, we hope the Zrpress will come out with its affidavits, as it appears to be very anxious to do so, and it is the last card for liars to play, and there is no law against it. - So come out with your affdavits. 4 @ r-- ~~. The Radical Candidate for Senator. Lewis Kingsley, the Radigal nominee for Sen- ator, is &a political trickster livieg in Chenango county.
