Mr. Editor: In This day and finie you often hear remarks con cerning the great number of office seekers we have among our people -men who are solicitous of serv ing as office-holdprs in the inter 3sf of the "dear people." But, Mr. Editor, away back yonder in the 'long ago," office seeking was even rtien one of the prominent charac teristics of the average Edgefield mau. Aud to substantiate this assertion I beg you to publish the Following list of candidates which [ copy from the Advertiser of Sept. 11th, 1850-fifty years ago, viz : For Congress-Armistead Burt. For State Senate-James Shep pard, Jame * Tompkins, Nathan L. ariffiu, Johu Bauskett. For House of Representatives abraham Jones, W. D. Jennings, F. H. Ward law, W. C. Moragne, James C. Brooks, Dan iel. Holland, John R. Wever, B. C. Yancey, Geo. A. Addison, Arthur Simkins, Greo. M.Blocker, Joseph Abney, William A. Harris. For Tax Collector-Sampson B. Mays, Robert Cloy, Theophilns Dean, L. A. Brooks, William L. Parks, Elijah T. Ranch, Welcome Martin, John Quattlebaum, Bi F. Goude}-, F. W. Burt, Derick Hol eon bake, Isaac Boles. For Sheriff-T. J. Whittaker. Lewis Jones, Johu Hill, Thomas W. Lanham, Humphrey Boulware, Thomas J. Dyson, Wesley Bodie, Alfred May. For Ordinary-Hugh A. Nixon, William H. Moss, Virgil M. White, Henry T. Wright, Wilson L. Cole man. For Clerk-Thomas G. BacoUj Oliver Towles, Peter Quattlebaum, Edmund Penn. Forty-seven as staunch, brave, honorable gentlemen as ever sought the suffrages of the Edge field people. But, Mr. Editor, the last one of the above forty-seven candidates of fifty years agone, have long since crossed the "silent river," and are at rest forever. We knew them all, and remember j them lovingly and well. I 'The old, old friands I They hover around us still in evening shades; Surely we will meet again when sun light fades And life on God depends." So you see, Mr. Editor, the in clinatio: ? to seek public office is something we have all inherited from an honorable and worthy an cestry, and therefore should some thirty or forty of the good fellows come before the "dear people" this year, let us not be astonished. They inherited their ambition on that line, and we should cheer them all on to success. THREE SCORE AND TEN.
