There is no length to which the Ma honities will not go, in their desper ate and reckless attempt to get control of the State's treasury. Their organs have gotten hold of an old letter writ ten by Dr. Moffet announcing himself a readj uster candidate for the Legisla ture from Rockingham county, yean ago: &nd are republishing it without date, in order to create the impression in distinct parts of the State that the Doctor, who is now a staunch and ef fective supporter of the regular dem ocratic State and county ticket, has become disaffected. Such tricks can only inspire the right thinking people of the State with disgust at those who resort to them. <■»■» . . DIED. TRIPLET—Sunday.
