Hold Him.

A man by the name of J. L. Pugh is running about loose in Alabama, ns an independent candidate for Congress. The True Delta speaks of him as a “dangerous animal, that should not be suffeed to run at large.” Hear him; “To-day I fling my banner to the breeze, covered all over with the motto, * Union among ourselves for the sake of the South.’ Come to its support, and if the State Rights Democracy of Alabama dishonor themselves and degrade their State by permitting it to remain in the Union after the electron of a Black Republican President, then I pledge myself to join you in raising an Alabama regiment to light the torch of revolution in the capital at Washington.”
