We thought our roll of eamli«l;itos m\ih eompleti* last woeH, but two more have entered Hie race at the elevenUi , hour, but to recelte tli.clr full alvare of favor from the people. Jarneg ThwinMou, Eaq., of Hla( , kville, aunouneea himself u caiulidate for the Oouao of UepreaentHtivuM. He U strong member of the liar, a matt of lirfe natutal talents ami thorough culture, of firm ttetormhiatlon ami strict devo tion to the public welfare. By the pub lication of his card in llu; Graham’s Rows of last Saturday be brought, hiui- ,r self strictly within the primary rules and regulations. If elected lie will make a faithful and forcible represen tative. Mr. Charles F. Harvey was kept by tlflS^oyere illness of a member of his family from publishing ids card at an earlier date. The Executive Commit tee has agreed to ids entering the race withaii the rights of other candidates. Mr. Harvey will be grateful to his friends and the public generally for their support on next t4»turday. He has not been able to canvass much of the county but trusts that ail will con sider his qualifications before casting tneir ballots. He is now and always has been a good man and if elected will make a good otllcial. His share in th<^ administration of county affairs would bo intelligent, ac tive, painstaking, honest and econom ical.” tarty on. < andltfatim. Tlw announcements of forty one can didates are published in this issue of TnxTaocnm — All have compiled with the require ment of the j^lumry plan providing that each shall pledge himself‘Ho abide “Ly the results of the primary election and not u» accept a uoiuhiatkui.jOX an olttce from any source other than the regularly ctfflstRuted Democratic' dr^ gani/ation.” That was done in laat weak’s paper. All are, we believe, In full am] sin ce rest sympathy w ith theKefortn Move ment and each, we feel sure, is anima ted by the controlling desire of reuder- Uig honest service to the public. tto, dear reader, standing as they do on an equal platform, U Is your prov ince to measure their merits and to ac- loot those who w 111 best aerve this brave old county, this dear old common wealth, In Lh« dark andtrmiblous times that lay so near before. For never In all the crises of her changing history has the Falmctto State needed truer service of her sous or claaer knit union of all her |ieop'.e. We are entering new and unsalled teas. Let the crew of our ship of state be manned with the best and bravest smhmtofgj. i ■ ioukl <— >*rm. S In [)<* UIHrn. The candidate’s lot la indeed a hard one. 'I he stdicincs for electioneering j tlmt ape fesovted to .are v<Ty n inarka-! j ble and at titties extmmdy tin just. It fWH*nis that the present Il(«ard of rodnty t?oiiiii>iasl«uer» entered upon their duties from the *tart fnlly con-, vincedoftho necessity for reform; the preceding Hoard having sjK.'Ut nearly five thousand dollars in excess of the tax levy for that your, and necessitating an extra levy of about one mill on the taxes of J8*8-80 to make u p that dcli- cleuey. 0 Tlu‘report of, the Grand Jury is proof that they have strictly adhered to their principle of reform ami hffvc saveil several thousand dollars to the tax payers of the county. But, notwithstanding all this, some designing person lias put a report in cir culation that, upon investigation, I find to be without proof to sustain it. The report lathis: That the present Board rejected a bid from a physician to attend the poor house and jail for $<J0 per annum and accepted the bid of another for ^ Xow upon investigation l find tint when this matter came before the f 'om- mlssioners there were three bids, as follows: 1st. To attend and preaerllx* as phy sician to poor house and jail for $<10 i*cr annum; the inedicines to be paid for extra. 2nd. To attend all calls to poor house and jail at the rate of fifty cents per visit—medicines to be paid for extra. 3d. To attend all calls to poor bouse and jail and furnish all necessary in-'d- icines for the smaof per annum. The'first two bids were very TniTcn I’m only a plain, on! li nt man. but Htilb**.

Let that election bill goto the winds. Let the white folks have every thing their way; they.are goiqg to have it any haw; they tell you so right in congress. Gabe can just tell you, these Southern white folka are no cowards. If the North don’t believe it, let them ask the negroes. Gabe wants three things—peace, something to eat and a little {money; White folks, give Gabe these and you may have the whole world and Jhe fence arouu d it too. .jG a be is going to. try and make it to Mt.
