Oli vet, sister Vidian, wants to lieiu from all the ccricspondcnts, with y our permission, Mr Kditor, 1 will givo .you my "lowest voice" for a few moments. As we have no special theme to discuHS, will have to do like llro. 'Kich' ill aw ?>n t our old -incubator, and sec if we cannot 'hatch' a few thoughts, that while they may not prove of much interest l<? the read eis of this paper, yet they may smuso somo-tlV furnish ' food f??r thought" to some aspiring candi date, fchouhj, our 'hatcher' in going through the mister. oils process of intubation, as Mr. (iallagher, of Wlz/.ard Od fume, said, when A Jr. told him to not count 1us chickens bcfiWe they hatched, but suppose we had best not say so much about Spring chickens before we have the preachers 'smacking' their lips i.n joyous expectation ?>f an early 'f yyj but wo fear if this cold weather continues, that that peuod of culinary filicity is yet 'out of sightJ From pescnt. indications this will t>c a lively year, politically speaking, but wo fear that when cotton sells for 5 or (> cents a pound this Fall ? about the same time that their guano note are maturing, their interests in politics will bo put in the shadf, while t he fat mors will be wearing faces not quite as long as your arm. We like to look on the bright side, but so much commercial fertilizers has In en bought that the 'bright sMe' don't seem to very dazzling. In the face of these gloomy pros pect the expense of the Constitu tional Convention and hist session of the Legislature is about ?110, 000. How is that for reform? It is likely th?.t some who wero dele gates to that Convention that vot ed t.o raise ?.heir salary from $2 to per day, will he in the race next campaign for Lie Legislature, anil! we think when the hard Working farmer gets a whack at them, that they will "whack 'em hard." Taking a retrospective glance there sOems to ho a goodly number of candidate^ that have thrown olF I h 3 crysalis of their embryonic stat", and come out in full attire. There is announced for Congress 3, suggested 1. For the Hduso, "an nounced 11, suggests! 2, dark house 1. Supervisor, announced 3, sug gested 1. Cleik of Court, . an nounced 2.

Hy the number of suggC&'ions for the House and cilice of Super visor, there ii ust ho some dissatis faction relative to those two places. In our criticisms we do not wisi.l to olfend any one, iv^t follow as near as possible the records of the above mentioned offices. It seems that our Supervisor has crused considerable comment- in- .fctukiuu. i of the public roads along the fi-dds of t he farmers and not" trimming the road where there are no fields, or cutting down embankments a I along the different highways; ad-' vacating the issuing of bonds to pay the current expenses of the C911U ty.' The -criticism concerning our delegates to the Constitution al Convention is caused by their accepting $4 per d ly, when they wore elected under an impliio .contract to receive ?2 a da}'. Again 'in reducing the pnv.of certain Leg islative official, til! it came their tnrn then a motion '.o table inde finitely, postpone or adjourn was in order. Hut human nature is weak, and when you stiike a man's pock et you 8trifctf"hini hard. In concision we beg the pardon of the editor tor taking so much space from him and other correu pindenis. We congratulate y'ou, Mr. Kditor in having such a bright, efficient carps of "pencil pushers," which adds much to the fnterest of your valuablo paper.

We see in last week's Chronicle an iieui from your A ntioch correspondent ahout the overseeing of a cettain rand in his i neighborhood, and as he does not ! fully explain the situation ar.d his meaning may he misconstrued, we j will have something to say further.'

It is said that a "small leak will sink a ehip," and it is line in a!l things.
