I p I was well aware that being a candidate myself it would not he prudent for me to t take any active part for or against anyja Other candidate, which precaution I wasjv particular to observe, but the mere lUet j that I was known to be in favor of Gen- e eral Ilemphil was enough, it would seem, J s as on the late political meeting at Hodges. t] ami at Greenwood, the home of Dr. Max- ^ well, I was informed l>y the friends of i t, that gentleman that no candidate who ^ wxs known or believed to he a supporter ? of General Hemphill heed expect any support from the l'rinuds of Dr. Maxwell. ]] Finding that the lines were being thus j tightly drawn and believing that a major- I n ity of the candidates for School Com mis- ^ sioner were friends <>f General Ilemphill j |, or at leas'- were so regarded, I concluded I j that such of us as were thus classed r would "be placed at a decided disadvan- ^ tage in the race; so much so that in justiee to myself and to the other candidates u for that particular olUce, who are regarded as friends of General Hemphill, I re- <; solved to withdraw from the race. 1, Respectful I v, a JOSHUA Y.

It. Commissioner, 1 Immigration Agent, I Clerk for Agent, 1 Inspector of Phosphates, 1 Assistant Inspector,. 1,0!h) Asses.-tirs of Real Estate, 33 Masters in Equity. According to "Melpomene's" calculatloi lierefore.no less than 1.150 new offices ha\ )een erected to consume tiie substance of tl ax-pnyers. The Professors are in no seni Mate officers, and. even if they were, the d nnnd for enlarged educational facilities niigl >roperly be pleaded as a justification for the ippointmeni. The fund for educational pu uses has been administered by the I)ein ;rats with scrupulous honesty and has bet nude to accomplish marvels when compart ,viIh the disastrous results ol' the profuse at orrupt expenditures under the Radical vlileh entailed upon their successors ac ent; nous indebtedness. The Democrats have n mly sustained ttie school system, increasi ts efficiency and elevated its standard, b hey have at the same time, with rigid ho sty. made provision for the liquidation of tl Hick indebtedness bequeathed to them I their extravagant predecessors. There is st lowever, a great deal to be accomplished the sphere of education,and the Iiemocrn ire displaying the wisest economy in inerec ing the means and appliances fur that pi pose. Instea<iof 35. there are only 31 Supervise of Registration and their salaries amount J17,(HH>. The 70 Assistant Supervisors recei no salaries at all. It is to be observed th the Registration Act was passed In pursuan i?f the mandate of the Constitution wliii was made lor the State by the ltepublicai und it has its Justification not only in the la that it Is enjoined by the Constitution but i so in the supreme necessity lor tnainlaluii [lie purity of elections. The salaries of the Railroad Commission iind his clerk are paid by the railroad corpoi lions themselves and constitute no burd< upon the tax-payers. It Is conceded on i sides that the gigantic growth of corpoia power within the lust tew ytars calls fur Teg lution t'.nd stipervlison bv the st;ite for tl protection of the public interests, and com ijuenlly we find scarcely a State in the l'ni? without its railroad commissioner. If tl salary were paid directly by the people, tl office would yet be eminently proper and n< essary, and Its advantages would more tin compensate for the additional outlay. The salaries of the Immigration Agent ai liis clerk are paid out of the current appr priations lor the Department of Agrieultui und In the meat race for prfcgress betweon tl States, when every inducement is being he out to thrifty, industrious und conservuti settlers, this stati cannot alloid to neglect tl means of keeping puce with her sistercoi inonwealths.

There lie .sits the wlioic r I day, tlie subject of the most assiduous atteni i Hons from his devoted family. He reads u litis j tie, newspapers, his mall and some devotion' al works, ulso writes down his passing im- F! I pressions, indites letters and communictites * ;with those to whom his Hi most Inarticulate >i miirmurings are intelligible. e ' Three grains of morphine are administered ll daily, the patient never being allowed to ? come thoroughly from under its influence. I , His food consists of milk, Into which the J 1S yollcs of eu-iis have been beaten and a little is whiskey added. About three pints of this I- mixture Is passed Into the patient's stomach _ is ' every day, through a tube, no portion of the I food touching his palate.

The outer carotid artery is exposed, and |>u.'.sation is plainly visible. Tlie soft or conneCtlve tissue has been eaten away, and only i- such tough, clastic substances as compose the _ " walls of the artery arc left Intact.

The old ? n- j negro naturally Inquired, "If Adam and Eve ? :ie1 were de first persons, in ?'e world, who built L >y de fence?" Now I would ask our (Jaflney ' III City friends, who will build tlipt bridge, ?/om i in ortret I believe they have rather fixed upon its Smith's Ford as a suitable place to build the is* bridge. ir- liut have the promoters of the scheme, ever ? thought what it would cost to build a suitable L irs bridge across Hroad Hiver?
