John XII. Williams and VIM. B. Maclay.
We ask the dispassionate attention of the Voters
of the Fourth Congressional District to the striking
contrast presented in the character and claims of
the rival candidates to represent that District in
Congress-JoRN H. WILLIAMS and ITIlztam B.
Maclay.


|. In the first place, Maclay is an oifce-seeker
BY trade. He has been candidate for office al
most every year since he was old enough to hold
one He has been for three years Member of
Assembly. He long since fixed his eye on seat
in Congress, and has been legislatng and wire.
working to secure it. If he ever did any thing of
consequence but seek Office and hold Office he has
kept it profound secret.


JOHN II. WILLIAMS on the other hand, is the
son of worthy carpenter of the Seventh Ward,
himself maker and seller of Looking. Glass
frames, which business he has followed these
twenty years. Unobtrusive and blameless in life,
he has discharged faithfully all the duties of
good citizen, without seeking Office or notoriety !;
and his nomiRation for Member of Congress came
as unexpectedly and unasked to him as it could
have done TO any other citizen in the District He
is most intelligent, discreet, experienced and
upright cisizen, and viii faithfully represent the
District if elected, because he does not go there
to serUe hsmse!t, but the constituency.


In brief the difference between the two men
flows naturally from this-,ha, one of them he's
sought the Office, and the other is sought bv II.


Which do you prefer'


II. Let US consider how these two men have


at'aiaed the honor of nomination. Whv i. Mr.


WILLIAMS proposed No,oriously, because hs
was esteemed the bes, man for the station. How
came Maciay candids,e' By his services in
getting through the School Law of last winter.
Now we have always desired and urged that the
dissstisfac,ion OF the Catholics with the School
System should be obvis,ed; we have believed, as
