He was a candidate for one of the offices and at a meeting at Owen’s ford was to make his second speech in the campaign. The first one scar ed him. he said, nearly to death, hut he had gathered more courage and at this meeting he thought he was Everett Jeffe- j making a splendid speech. He got spending the good attention and thought he had holidays with their grandmother, the crowd generally with him. When Mrs. M. H. Jefferies, have returned he concluded his speech one fellow; f 0r member of the legislature—peo- whlch he was in arrears, and we may presume many a friendly rustic to have tapped his neighbor on the shoulder, when he was indulging too freely in his potations, and to have exclaimed, as he pointed to the chalk score, “Mind your P’s and Q’s.” Yesterday morning we had the hardest rain that has fallen here lately. Gilkey creek was so high at the Jim Burgess bridge that the mall on R. F. D. No. 9 couldn’t cross. Yesterday evening the wind was very high and the clouds passed away leaving the ground a perfect sea of mud and water. We hardly think that anything like a full vote will be polled today to Union. i in his shirt sleeves standing a little John R.

Mr. James G. Gamer has had a good deal of trouble with the mill dam at Thomson’s mill since the high water in Thickety cr^ek has been so frequent here of late. The people of both sides of the river here are getting much inter- ested in getting a bridge across Broad river at or near Howell’s ferry. In many places the public roads have been so badly washed and other wise injured by the rains, that a great deal of work must he done on them before the hauling season is over. Many of the side ditches are filled up and the water finds Its way into the road throwing mud in the low places so that teams can scarcely pull through them.
