It is expected that the good news concerning- the national election will i largely increase the attendance upon the State Fair. Quite a number of people will go down from Fairfield. 1?Governor Thompson has ordered a sneeial election to be held in the fourth Congressional District on the 24th inst., to fill the vacancy caused by the death of the Hon.

The issue between Messrs. Blaine and Cleveland . is still undecided, and it is natural to suppose that the young lovers are trembling in their boots. We hope she will marrv the Cleveland fellow. ?In a day or two the canvasser for TiieXews axp Herald will start upon a tour through the county.

The Spartanburg Jlcralcl commenting upon Mr. S. 11. Rutland's article on dogs, recently published in The News and Herald, says: A correspondent of the Fairfield News and Herald raises a cry, a regular how], against the dogs. His hog ni?AT\nnA/l of ,poo UiilX UilLLiU luuu, wicjjaitu av niu stolen by these half-starved animals, and he thought he would take the dog census of his neighborhood. Within one inile of his abode, he found fiftythree?eight being owned by whites and forty-five by colored people. He then estimated the dogs of the county at ten thousand; and, at the lowest living estimate, the amount of bread, or its equivalent, consumed by them is equal to Go,000 bushels of corn. This corn would raise 750,000 pounds of pork, or enough for 5,000 people. In Spartanburg county, with its 12,000 inhabitants, there are at least 10,000 dogs that are iust as expensive lilUSU Ui jL1 UIl JlL'Hi, UUt VLIV Lillys, nt uo well attempt to deprive a man of the right to vote as to restrict him in the number of clogs lie may own. The man fond of blooded dogs will have his setters and pointers and they are about as destructive as the bob-tailed, yellow curs of the "nigger." Then the fox hunter must have his hounds and they make a pretty broad road through the cotton field when they start a fox or rabbit. Dogs are very much like people, they are not always under the best command. In fact we have seldom seen dogs much superior to their owners. It is hard for a dog to rise above its raising. The dogs of aristocratic owners will kill sheep and fowls and commit other genteel depre- i dations that your yellow-eyed, slabsided mongrel would not dream of. * * * * * The supreme happiness of the poor man, whether white or black, that is the owner of about. five poor, rawboned, mangy dogs, no two alike in any way, is beyond human calculation. The pleasures of the fox chase sink into a sombre and funereal procession, when you compare it with half a dozen negroes with about eighteen dogs, of all degrees, in hot pursuit after "molly cotton-tail.'* That's genuine fun. Legislators discuss the dog and plead for his exterminations dor-tous may hold np the terrors of hydrophobia before people; old women may complain of their eggs being sucked by "nasty, trifling hounds," but the dog is here and he is going to stay. The promise or prophecy is that the poor will always be with us, and wherever you see "the poor man the dog is not far away. Those who raise so many objections to dogs always mean their neighbor's curs. No man ever acknowledged that he owned a sheepkilling, egg-sucking whelp. His dogs are always perfect. As the dog is going to sta>, the best thing- will be to improve his morals, j To rin this the owners must set them a I good example. Dogs have lots of sense and they understand more than they get credit for. When a smart pointer hears his mistress abusing and back-biting her neighbor, he thinks it his bounden duty to slip across and break up the hens' nests or kill some of the young fowls of this bad neigh bor. The dog has just carried out the thoughts of the owner. The blackmonlhed'cur enters into all his master's prejudices and animosities. Not being able to talk and too much of a dog to back-bite, he Lakes his spite out in killing sheep or worrying hogs. A good example would wonderfully improve the dogs. SHERIFF'S SALE.
