For the Tloics. Primary Elections. Friini) Stokks : I did think I would not say a word in tlio campaign of 1878, but I have noticed the programme of the State and County Executive Committees and am impelled to gi\a you one of my objections to it. By it all the s voters in the Primary elections, if that is agreed upoa, imwtkl^anrolledfinembersof a Deo^cratio Club, and none others "arc jptrwdfro rot* at * ' "'said elMOSirf. -iTow,' you Ww1 wish to I give a fair election, must let each Township devote, if, at the election thoy SaUVWat they are democrats. In this Towhship I believe that not more than one-half the democrats will enrol themselves as members of a club, although they are as good and true democrats as can be found in the State. Heretofore the clubs have pnssed resolution upon resolution, but scarce'y ever stuck to them, except in the vote. I know the answer to this will be, that is all wc want ; but don't you Itirtiv m.n lulin aftkml llltntl an nnfllllv JIVOWPll Expression, nnd if such bo the programme tbcrc "" """* Will not be more than half the (lcmocratio voters bf Union County represented in the clubs? Is the programme, iu this respect, just and equit- " able? Lot us bo represented by delegates according io the Hampton vote in each precinct, in 187G. If that standard for voting is adopted, you will itek. see a full and fair democratic vote at the Primary elections and also at the polls next Fall, while peace and harmony would prevail all along the line. Mr. Kditor, if we would insure success to the coming campaign, we must harmonize, equalize and systematize in every possible way. I know it will be said that the plan laid down by the Committees will be as fair for one section as another ; but there may be some discord in one section nnd none in many others, and that is one of the reasons for my suggesting that each Township make its own standard for voting at Primary elections. I am fearful the restriction to enrolled members of Clubs wjll drive many good men from our ranks, or at least cause much dissatisfaction, if the nominations do not plcnse thorn. I expect logo into the full organization, but I know the feelings of the people in my township, CITIZEN. John Morrisscy, the noted gugilist and politician, died in New York, <n the 1st May. The deceased was a remarkable man, and from the Influence he wielded, nnd the honors conft?rrt?rl nnnn liim whilo livimr hv liia follniv.fit . -r? o' * v,,v" v,v izens, anil tbo respect paid to his memory, we are bound to believe, (hut be had some good qualities and traits of character, which served to diminish, in public esteem, the vices which shadowed his life. His last words, if correctly reported, are characteristic of his ruling passion : "My chance is that of a $5 horse in a ?1,000 pool." A Vkby Qooi) Reason.?The reason why oniy one sample bottle of Mkrrkll's IIepatink for theCiver will be sold to the sumo person, for ten cents, by our Druggists, GUIDES & CO., is because of the enormous expense of importing the llcpatine into this country ; but as there are fifty doses in the large size bottle, it seems two cents per dose is cheap enough after all for a medicine that cures dyspepsia and liver complaint. All who havo not had a sample bottle are entitled to one for teu cents at GUIDES & CO.'S Drug store. Tlireo doses relieves any case of dispepsia, constipation, indigestion or liver complaint, in the world. Regular size bottles, fifty doses. ?1.00. ?e?r 10 CentsSample llottles Merrell's Hepntinc for the Liver, and Globe Flower Cough Syt rup for the throat and Lungs, at GIRDES & CO. 17 Liver is Kino.?The Liver is the imperial organ of the whole human system, as it controls tlio life, health and happiness of man. When it is disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of ailments nre the natural result. The digestion of food, the movements of the heart and blood, the action of the brain and nervous system, arc all immediately connected with the workings of the liver. It has been successfully proved that Green's August Flower is unequalled in curing all persons ntllicted with Dispepsia or Liver Complaint, and all the numerous symptoms that result from nu uuliei ltliy condition of the Liver and Stomach. Sample bottles to try, 10 cents, l'ossitivcly sold in all towns on the Western Continent. Three doses will prove that it is just what you want. For sale by all druggists, and by GUIDES & CO. 18-2w. Settled Beyond a Donir.?No one questions the fact thnt more cases of supprcssad and irregular niense and uterine obstructions, of every kind, nre being daily cured, by Dr. J. Dradtield's Female Regulator, than by all other remedies combined. Its success in Georgia and other Safntno in liovnml Ytrnnntlnn(a in tlm nnuolo aC 0 ~ - " physic. Thousands of certificates from women everywhere pour in upon the proprietor. The nttcntion of prominent medical men is aroused in behalf of this wonderful compound, and the most successful practitioners use it. If women suffer hereafter it will be their own fault. Female Regulator is prepared and sold ty L. II. Kradfield, Druggist, Atlnnta, (in., and may he bought for $1.60 per bottle at any respectable Drug Store in the Union.
