You are a coward, If afraid to tell

Gen. Sherman proposes some very

A Judge should have no politics so long
as b«bi on the bench. He should be

judges should Imitate Judge Kershaw,

The Union Times says that tho mal
contents of that county, whilst crying
out against cliques and wire-worker*
at the Court House, are themselves
forming cliques in every neighborhood,
and In secret laying pians for the ele-
vatfon of themselves and certain of
their choice for office. Oh 1 thou new

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.

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

thing ought to be done and that

many misunderstandings arise from
the loose way in which business mat
ters are talked over, and when each
party puts his own construction, the
matter is dismissed with the words
all right, all right.” Frequently it
turns out all wrong, and becomes a

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.

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. Your~ attention is
called to the last paragraph of said circu
lar, as follows: When the County
Conventions have elected officers, the
new County Chairman wH at onCe re
port to tlie Secretary of tho State Exec
utive Committee, giving the names and
post office address of the officers chosen,
together with the names and post offices
of the Presidents of the local clubs, and
the number and membership of the sev.-
eral clubs. 1 ’
