Returning from the Maud section I made a tour through the county on March 15th, to Timber Ridge, where a full turn out^of the voters were in readiness to hear what the candidates had to eay in regard to their claims to the various offices to which each of them respectively aspired. Township Chairman John O. Tate, was master of ceremonies, and intro duced the speakers in his usual brief and modest, but plain and distinct style. Retween showers the crowd repaired to the old store, yet the speaking went on in the Grove despite the constant rain-fali, until at last the crowd repaired to the store-house, where the speaking was concluded. Fully 100 voters stood firm in order to give the candidates a chance to verftilatc their plans, and tell what they expected to do, and not to do. Here, as at other places, some little bitterness showed itself to the eha- grin of the Cl owd as vvcl i as the mor- tific at'on of t he cn idida tes.

This, like that at Timber Ridge, was held out-doors in the rain and mud. A large crowd was present—in fact the whole county was, more or less, represented. The crowd was very quiet and orderly. The Palmetto tree hud no great part in the work except now and then, to provoke a hurrah for so and so. 1 took copious notes of the sayings oi each candidate there, 1 expected to use in the sketches of the campaign.

Jj Some laughable incidentsltook place, and many funny sayings were elicit ed during tho campaign. It is my honest opinion that fully one-half of, . the candidates eared nothing for the j kegm my next letter office for which they were running— 1 (To he continued.)

I). R. Allgood, at Cherokee Falls. Here I was entertained in royal sty le, by my best who, by t ho way, is a first- class hotel man, both in his social and business relation. He and his family showed me all the kindness I could expect from firm friends. There I made several now acquaintances among his hoarders, both male and female. There 1 met for the first time 1 can remember, “Levy.” the son of my old school mate, Robert M. IMaxico, cf King’s Creek section, who is employed in the Company store at that place. I also met and formed an acquaintance with Mr. Humphries, son of our old and worthy music teacher, 1‘rof. Thompson Humphries, whose life and professional services have been influential in bringing up to usefulness three generations of the sons and daughters of his country men. To speculate on the surround ings—on the factory ground with wa ter power of immense wealth safely’ stored away in the vaults of nature’s water falls along Broad river for the entire length of Cherokee county, and for the greater part on both sides of the river, is too much like thresh ing old straw. It is as proverbial as it is unlimited. The employees at Cherokee Fails are seemingly well paid and contented. The place Is healthy and the water good and abun dant. ■ From the Fall” I wander my way to Blacksburg, over the hills and ore banks of Western York, now the min eral treasury of Cherokee county. There is from the best geological au thority we can find, sufficient reason td warrant the conclusion that this ore makes the best steel tmd iron to be found any whereon this continent. Its qua es were severely tested during t’ late war, (see Mr. William Little’s report.) and we defy contra diction of ibis assertion. Not only iron, but gob! and other valuable or» s are found in this section and around Blacksburg in great abundance. It was campaign day at Blacksburg, and we met a general turn-out of yeo manry of ‘ old York” when we gath ered. Elaborate preparations hud been made by the committee of ar rangements to give tho candidates a warn and hearty' welcome. A stand was built and chairs turni-bed suffi ciently to seat most, if not all, the speakers : t one time. The taste dis played in the arrangement and equip ment of the stand gave umnistakeuolc evidence tint Blacksburg did not pro pose to be eclipsed by her sisters on the west-side of Broad. To add to the pleasures of the oc casion the Antioch band under the leadership of Capt J. B. llambright, was present, and discoursed sweet music. For the time they have been playing they have made quick pro- j gre.-s, am! will surpass many older ! bands in the airs of their instruments. 1 Tho membership, at present, at ! Blacksburg, were as follows: J. B. llambright, Captain, J. I), McCarter, .1. R. Dover, Victor Ham- bright K. C. Hardin, W. R. Ham- bright, G. D. llambright, J. A. Ran dall, R. li. Randall, O. A. Dover. K. MeSwain, Oliver McSwain, I*. G. Dick son and J. A. Whisonant. In addition to what inis been said, I might add that the stand had been tastefully decorated, and everything made cherry for the speakers, as well as audience. Capt.JJunius W.{Thompson presided over the meeting with distinguished ability and impartiality. As this was my first visit to the town of Blacks-*, burg I thought I ought Intake in the town so 1 tramped around for some time and finally went home with my old comrade II. R.

Speaker Reid Surprises the Hcnso by Making a Spetcb—Newspaper Men Approve Mr. Roose velt’s Appointment. (Correspondence of The Ledgcrji Wasii.’ngtox, April 0.—Congress gave an exhibition of rapid transit legislation, rs well as of the touch of nature which makes the whole world kin, when it broke all previous re" cords, in making an appropriation of $200,000 for the relief of tho suffer ers from the floods in the Mississippi River and its tributaries and in the Red River of the North. Inside of two hours President McKinley’s spe cial message, setting forth the urgent need of help for the flood sufferers, was read in both House and Senate, the resolution unanimously adopted, signed by the President, and the money made available for immediate use. For the first time, excepting £iVn* days, of course, since the fourth of March the White House is free from a crowd of office seekers. It isn’t free because the office-seekers have gone away’, but because the Presi dent has gone down the Potomac River on the l\ S. S. Dolphin for two or three days rest.

He is to be Assistant secretary of the Navy, but no matter what he is or where he is lie is always a good ‘'copy-maker”, and consequently is liked by news paper writers. Secretary Long, who insisted upon having Mr. Roosevelt for his assistant, may not bo so glad of his success in getting him a few month* from this time as lie is now, if those who know the two men well are not mistaken in saying that Mr. Roosvelt is much the ablest.

If all tiio good deeds were summed up, no doubt but what there would be a large pile of them. I think there is great beau ty in old age. but the evening of life is the time of calm repose. Death, when viewed in the right spirit, is found to be but the pleasant transi tion stage to a more glorious and per fect life. We are all equal in death, it is the entrance to the harbor.

The facts as I get them from old people are: That Johnson, under the cover of night, crept up to Hie house of his victim, while she was sitting leaning hack in a chair stringing beans. Coolly and deliberately he leveled his rifle and sent a ball on its hellish mission, crashing through the seat of life, which so effectually did its work that she never fell out of her chair but re tained her setting posture until the next morning, where some of* the neighbors found her.

As much as any thing eh s my re: son for re-producing ' ibis paper is to show the character of the judges who adorned the bench in the Stale in ante helium times; 1 most cordially recommend the words of the J ndge to tiie young and t hough t- less who give loose rein to vice and immorality. Hundreds of Leix;:;:: readers, both in this and adjoining States, who are familiar with the circumstances, will no doubt read this paper with inUr- | est. Here it is: Phineas 11. Johnson: Young! nan, I how can 1 say to you, in the aoful [ language of tin. inspired prophet, ; “set thy house in order, for thou i slialt die, and not live!” Yet K must be done. You are before iw now, in the morning of life—in a few brief days you will he cut off, and the i place which now knows you, “shall know you no more forever.” !r is my duty to say to you, thu! the na ture of you crime forbids the possi bility of pardon here. Your only hope of pardon is in the merciful atonement offered you and all men, in tiie broken body and steaming blood of Him, who cried, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Your crime, awful as it is. must be set before you, in the hope that it may do you and the community good. To creep upon a poor woman, in her own solitary cabin, in tiie stillness of night, with her nursling at her feet, her first born wrapt in infantile in nocent slumber by her side, when preparing the scanty portion of vege tables for her and their food, and to shoot her as a wild, beast, hardly bus a parallel in tiie annuls of crimo. When to this is added, the guilty wretch who completed this deed was her seducer, ones—where, oh where, shall we find another as foul a blot on human ity? To you, at least, her person ought to have been sacred. For you, she had made herself the guilty, degrad ing being, to whom beauty was a re proach, character was infamy, and affection was hatred. For you she art the man!” Sad and awful as all these thoughts ami reminiscences may be, they are as nothing to that which is before you! Death, a shameful death, in a few days, must he met and suffered. Oh ! young man, do not die forever. God is before you ns he ever has been, willing to be gracious. He still points to the atonement offered on Calvary. He still says, “wash and be clean.” I have no doubt that, although a murderer like Massey, you may yet have his hope of pardon and peace. I have heard with great pleasure, that you have, as you believe, experienced already that hope. Be not deceived! Wrestle contin ually, like good old Jacob with the angel of the covenant, and say like him, “1 will not let thee go till thou bless me.” May you have that blesMng! May God puss you through the dark v > - ley of the shadow of death and un - ble you to say, “I will fear no ill, for thy rod and thy staff doth support me.” “The sentence of the law is that you be taken hence to the jail of Union district; that you there be safely ami securely confined till Friday, t!v loth day of February nest, on which day. between the hours of 111 in the forenoon and 2 in the afternoon, you will be taken by the sheriff of Union district to the place of public execu tion, and there he hanged by the neck, till your body be dead, and may God have mercy on your .-oul.” It is a great source of pleasure to note that the Pea Ridge section of Union county is now among tiie most refined sections of tin* .State.
