The following paragraph appears in A l&Tge & Fllll ASSOltmeilt
u'a ji u ii vuamoeriain ne
livered at the capitol to-day :
'The ' gentleman who was mv onno-.
nent for this office in the late election
has recently declared, as I am credlblv
informed, that he holds not only the
peace of th,s city and State but mv life
I' V 1 T . .

ui statement, xseitner the pubhc
peace nor the life of any man who now
-.wv-vu vuv WliOUUl UIAblUll Ul Lil IT . . . V
ISM l m7 AiUcte for ; Christmas,
enforced that policy." ,
I . pronounce this statement in
famously false. By my unwearied ex
ertions I have, eudeavored to preserve
the peace of the State, and I have thus
contributed to shield from popular in
dignation one who has proved himseif
'a disgrace to his rank and a traitor to
his trust." His conscience may make
bim tremble, but neither I nor the
men with whom I act countenance the
hand of the assassin.

A married couple : were attacked in
the y street by a dog. ' The: wife
screamed and tried to run, but her hus
band caught her by the e houldera and
held herfirmly between the infuriated
ast and h:s person, wh;:e he whisper
in a hoarse voice : "Don't vou dare
to let go of me, darling. I'll stand by
you even if he does bite." Never'los-
mg nis presence ot mind ror an instant,
the daring man ;ba filed everv attemnt
of the fierce brute to get at him." The
owner of the doer interfered, and. aa
the couple moved off, the husband was
heard to say : ''If you had only let
that dog bite fyou, Matildy, I , might
have sued the city for $10,000 damages.
But you never did have much sense."
