Oh 1 thou new born thirst for ofilco in OaroHnal Whence is thy source ? Surely not in the past, which we now call her glory, and honor, and lustre, and which we are now seeking, if words mean any thing, to restore. Then was It tbut oflltcoa sought men, and the dirty dab blings which are already beginning to appear, would have slaughtered the man so engaged. A woman is a mighty handy thing to have about the house .She doesn’t cost any more to keep than you’ll give her, and she will take great interest in you. If yougo out at night she’ll bo awake when yon get home, and then she’ll tell you ail about yourself and more too. Of course she will know where you have been and what kept you out so iate, and will tell you ; yet right af ter she gets through telling you that, she will ask you where you have been and what kept you out so late. And after you tell her she Won’t believe you. Yov musu’t mind that. And if, after going to bed, she says she hasn’t closed ht+ eyes the whole night, and then keeps up tho matinee two hours longer, and wont go to sleep when she gets a chance you musn.t mind that either. It's her nature. The Jail. 1 Our Jail haa sixteen boarders, at the expense of the tax-pnyera, and the penitentiary has six hundred with lit tle or nothing for them to subsist upon. Is there no remedy for this ? And the cry is “still they come I” Every coun ty is pouring* its convicts, and the condition of the prisoners is alarming. We will venture a suggestion—why not send them to Africa? There is plenty of room for them there, and if they cannot live boro, except as prison ers, at the public expense, perhaps they would prefer a country where they may start a new life, and attain to wealth and honors among people o ’ .their own color and where the land . seems with tho richest productions of the w rid. * ’ Won’t some of our people, qualified to handle this subject, consider seri ously whether it would not be cheap er to the State, and far better for the convicts, to start them on the road of life again on a conditional pardon from the Governor, so that ohee away they will flnd it safer to stay in their new homes than to return. If our suggestion meets the difficul ty, all Is well—if-lt does not, let others put t heir shoulders to the wheel and make a better, for if things go on as at present, a few years more will And a large army In the prisons—some thing ought to be done and that quickly (—Exchange. j»loot.tb§t boa tried to cb&ttilo, and. x now I waat yer to come down to buaU ness or leave the ranch.

More than three-fourths of the litiga tion would be saved if the people would put down their agreements in writing, and sign their names to it. Each word in our language has its peculiar meaning, and may, by its change in a sentence, convey au entirely different idea from tbat Intended.

Thx Stats Convrmtion.—The ques tion Is freqeatiy asked, when will the State Convention meet for the purpose of nominating candidates for State officers, and arranging plans for the campaign? In our judgment, it is htgly important that the Convention should be called to meet at as early a day as may be practicable. There is a tendency Is some quarters to disor ganisation, and the anthorltive voice of the convention is needed to check anything and everything of the kind before It arrives at nu advanced stage. The mission of the Democratic party 419** much of having been accompliqh- edT and, until that shall have been done, we muaj cling to the party first, Ijast and all the time. Let us bavuth* Convention as early as possible, and then evey man will know exacOyjrbat one.—Camden Journal. Sns' be placed distinctly before the Democratic party on their own merits, and not as the candidate of any organized body of Democrats. / II. Each aspirant for tne position of candidate, when he accepts the nomin ation so made, shall immediately notify tftc County Chairman in writing of the fact, .and in tho same communication state that be is a member of some loCal club, and subscribe to the following pledge : "I agree to abide by and sup port the nomination of the Democratic party, and not to accept cither a nomi nation or an office from any other source than the regularly constituted Democratic organization.” III. At least five days before the primary election, the County Chairman shall notify the Democratic clubs oi the aspirants who have thus qua ified them selves for the position of candidate, and votes east for any other person or persons shall not be counted. IV. On tho day fixed for the primary election, each local club shall hold an election for candidates of the Democratic party, and report the result in writing over the signatures of the managers to the County Chairman. At this election none-bnt members of tho local clubs ! shall vote, and each member, before be iug allowed to vote, shall take the fol lowing pledge : “I solemnly affirm that I am*a duly enrolled member of this Democratic club ; that I have not voted at this election, and that I will abide by and sustain all nominations made by the Democratic party, whether for Fed eral, State or county officers.’’ V. Upon the following day, the County Chairman and at least two mem bers of the County Executive Committee shall assemble at the county seat, and aggregate the votes reported, and before sundown declare the candidates selected VI. No one shall be declared The hom- ineo of the party unless he shall have re ceived a majority of all the votes cast in the primary election. VII* Should no candidate for any particular office receive a majority of the votes cast, the County Chairman shall so declare, and order a second election to complete tho nominations in sufficient time before the general election. The Kxccntive Committee desire that a meeting of County Chairmen shall be held as soon as reorganization takes place in all the counties. The instrue- fT§’fi?g1 Ven in T!TrcuTaFNo^7^*^ , F^R , 12th, have not been complied with in those counties already reorganized, as no report has yet been made to the Secre tary as requested.
