Upon this important ^ subject an able committee was appointed, ' with (M. I?. P.

We thought we knew Mr. Jefferics too well to thiuk ho would utter such in llama* tn-y scntimeu's, and wo nu truly plrased to be able to correct the wrong ^ impression it certainly made upon the miuds ^ of many, by giving the following more rational utterances, in a lecture delivered by IX liiin at Orangeburg last week : The time is near at hatul when republican form of (iovei*nment in the United Slates ''' may cease, but tho people of our country are '* arising mid there is etill some Jiopo The su oppression by money power will bo made to stop.

We are going to wage war w against cla?s legislation, and ask all who \\ have the welfare of our country at heart to help us on to victory." That sounds liko a sane American citizen w and is a distinct improvement. A The l'ublio RoadsWe have heard a great many complaints u lately of the had con liti ui of the puhlic it roads, which should demand the immediate d attention of the County Commissioners. It \ is true that the continued rains have made it a almost impossible to work the roads ; but wo n ore of the o; i -ion, that the trouble is caused The law requires twelve days work in a " year on the r ats, and we believe if the 'I Itoad Ovc'scets would have the required i number of days put in, nn l have good work I performed, nil I not allow the hands to slight n the work, we wonl I have belter roads. i The Legislature is trying to enact a better system of working the roads, but, if the L present system was oil lore-d more rigorously I It would ho as gocd a system as could 1 possibly be enacted. v Personals.

It is reason a- i it? to suppose that the cause is attributable I u die political scheaicrs ol the State, rather i ban any lack of the faithful performance 1 I their duties of such oflicials as are being leoounced. This is the only conclusion one :an arrive at. Gov. Jus. S. Hogg, who rode into office tpou the Mill political breeze which passed i lirough the farming elements of Texas last feir, is the principal target at which most >f the hot shot from this same clement of roters fly. Mr. Hogg has made Toxas a good Governor. S> far, lie lias performed his duties fu tliful'y. Those who are dissppolUlUd lu On#. tvXmm'wt vaXi?>n. ot" oour.se, expect"#] too much from it. JJo Jiiw been true to his friends: I don't mean the farmers who worked so hard to elect hint, but his o'der fiends; somo of them who grew up null and near iiiin in boyhood ; but he has iia 1 the I ?ws of the .State executed as impartially as any Governor ever did. At all events, he is becoming very unpopular with a certain class throughout the entire Siate I an sure the class referred to, however, hive no real cause for disliking him, but it is bcli -vcl by many that those who : e so much displeased with his administration have been influenced by mercenaries of ilie people, and u t friends of tlie people, as they pretend to he. It is a lamentable fact, hut a fact nevertheless. that many of our good people are be ng misled by tlico sub-treasury schemers, who no doubt are instilling erroneous ideas int > the minds of many good men in the democratic patty, some of whom will doubtless be led astray and will not realize it, perhaps, until it is too late for ilieui to correct the error of their ways before the elections in The stub-1revury and nuti-sub-trcasury I coostitutojuo iwo Wings Ol UI? ... cause tin noble order to split, and thus until it for much fu< titer usefulness as an organization.
