Fokk of Edibto, Jan. 17,1880. Peace, quietude and good order reign sup i vine throughout this section hince the removal of James Browne as Trial Justice. On Jit, there arc two other applicants for the position. The people of the Fork do not want jiny Trial Justice at all. We pat along a great deal Letter without tin in than with them. It is to bo hoped tho uti wary will njt be fooled into .signing the petitions of the new aspirants. Shun the office seeker u3 you would a serpent. Sift the mat ter to the. bottom, ami you will lind "the friends who want me to accept the position ' are nun est invcnlus. The whole truth is the man has no friends at ail. If he had, they would not allow hllii to accept any public ofliorj. ami, mote especially, that of Trial Justice. "Watch," in The Democrat, is on the wiring side oi the fence ? law. It '?twenty head of cattle, penned every night oil sufficient litter, will pay not. less than five dollars per head in the value of manure, in in crease not lc.-s than six dollars per head, ami in milk and but or not less than two dollars per head," by all j menus, let us have a law to keep them pdtn.'d every night, (and day, I too), and thus double the pay all I round. "Watch" was told by a gentleman that the poor people of the up-coun try were so much opposed ti the huce law, that, alter its un.i.'tm-mt, lhey swore they would leave the country. 1 hey failed to go on ac count ^f inability to sell out. I was< loltl ujj ?27 out of 28 gentlemen whnJfl^i-i.r^ed ,it, that- nearly ejcry body in the" up-country liked the lencc law. Those "pool people" were f ightcued at first by the enactment of the law, but after they tried it awhile, were to well pleased with it, they concluded to stay in the conn try. 11 is i stitnated by good authorities on t he subject that the cost of fencing lands fur ugiiiultuial purposes in the United States up to the present time, exceeds in value all the real and per sonal property in them. There should In-a general law rendering it j compulsory upon every stock nwuer to keep his stock enclosed. As the law now Mauds, the farmer is doubly taxed lor fences. Besides having to keep his i laming lands enclosed, he has to keep his stock enclosed also a great portion of the time, or have them shot for jumping into his neigh but.-.' fields; True, there is a statute whit h requires every man who plants to have a lawful fence, but there never has been, and perhaps never will he, a lawful lencc in the county. It wool I bc easy t<> taweup estrays and hold tic in in custody until the damages were puid. Ideality of the stock would bc proof of ownership. The ft m e law or no fence law il never could tell the difference) would shorten distances, improve the stock of the country, reduce litigation on account of fencing up woo Is, bring fertile Spols, in the angle*, of branches and swamps into cultivation, and save an iiiimeucc amount of timber to the State Sil Ii a iaw would hciielil tit um; who -to not own tiny land-, as well us tin land owin Is. It would reduce the price ol reut, ami increase the rate ot wages in proporti >u tu the expense > I keeping up the fences. Nor v.i ulit it ucprive the landless 11mn owning stock. By the same custom ol the country* which permits (hose to live in houses who do not own the lands upon which the houses arc built, the stock of the landless would be allowed in the pastures ot ihe laud owners. The idea o: the ,fonon law has i great many terror*; to certain <? as-c ot our cit./ens, but once tried, and they, like the pcooluof die up country would bu weil pleased with it. Tim time ma)' lint bc at hand yut to leave the question to voto. When the sub ' ject has been more fully discussed, and its merits better understood, thou no doubt euch a law will he enacted lor the benefit ol the people of*the whole State. That such a law will he a necessity is only a question of time. Pa yuan. A Democrat that Despairs. Tito lion. Charta* O'Conor Believes a Democratic Victory in ISSU an Impas sibility. The New York ]>or/d publishes, a characteristic letter from the Hon. Charles O'Conor, the distinguished New York lawyer, three columns in length, and written in answer to an invitation to attend a Dem icrutie banquet at Newark, N. J., on thooth ol .January : In this letter Mr. O'Conor says he is constrained to regard it as abso lutely impossible that an y one cid led a Democrat should prevail in the next Picsideulial contest, anil he declares that the thirty-livo votes of the great Stale of New York have been delivered by the Tammany bolt into the hands of the Republican parly, and are now held by it as .'i secure possession, lie regard* the attempt of the Democrats to snize the vote of Maiuo as reprehensible, and suggests that this will furnish th3 i?epublicuus of the New York L gia lalure a pretext for changing the la v ami choosing Presidential electors, a course which, in his judgment, "they hail all along really meant to pur sue." 11c regards Mr. John Kelly as a petty "local fact ion ist," and ai hides to certain New York leaders, of whom Mr; Tilden was one, who, in 1S48, "from hei g-exceedingly servile .to Southern domination, suddenly wheeled ay^unitabscause of a merely* "penftYiiil disappointment, and under' ? the f??Qrt?oW cry raised the sectional bauiioi' o? ubidiii'iuism and tlierr.!)v rendered it politically fashionable." Mr. O'Conor says, though no Demo eratic candid*tu can obtain a majori iy in the electoral col legos, yet as none of Gen. Grant's Republican rivals can desire to see the coveted eminence practically in his potfcrisioa j lor life, some of them might l)J suc cessfully intrigued with; but he urges that such an .enterprise'.should it ever prosper, and nrgues that patriots chousing between 'To toe ' and "fraud'' should lavur the election Of Grunt, Mr. O'Conor then elaborates a notice of the changes which hsdeems advisable in our political .system, which, summarized briefly, ate as follows: The. separate State govern men la should be abolished; the quadrennial presidency shoal 1 he abolished; an executive chief might l-e elected by lot from the legislative corps for the eusuing month on some late day in each mouth; the Senate should be abolished ami the licpro j sentatives chosen for a short tarm substantially as at prennt; Congress should be rigidly e uifiued to in iking laws which ate absolutely necessary, leaving ail transactions and business as lar as possible in private h.iu.l timl to the action of private unter prise, inferior local courts for the a 1 I . . iniuistraliou of justice should, of course, be instituted, and a supreme tippellute court without original jurisdiction; the repudiation of pater nal government or laws mn general should be extended to all subordinate adtniuistrittio.is, th is uvoidiug board and counties in local districts,as in cities, towns, &e.; a chief esfcitive and legislative authority being neces sary, while tin; system should provide for them, it slm ihl contain s riet gourds ujainst the evils 11 which they lead; suitable precaution) might pro uio'e intelligence and purity in exer cising the elective franchise and pre vent frauds upon it; taxation should he euforced with absolute equality upon nil property not belonging to the government, without exemption I or distinction - of any kind, thereby j restraining the uuworiti. device: by j which wealthy men and tho poiiti ! cians escape itie duty ofcontribu nig I to the. publiu use. j i 1h?y only have lived loug who have lived virtuously. Predict ions About 1880 and 1887. In a pamphlet recently published, the author, Ptof. Grimmer, asserts: From 1880 to 1887, will bo one universal carnival of death. Asia will be depopulated, Furope nearly bo. America will lose fifteen million people. Besides the plague wo are to have storms aud tidal waves, moun tains arc to toss their heads through the choicest valleys, navigators will bo lost by thousands, owing to tbo capricious delitures of the magnetic needle, and is'anda will appear ami disappear in mid-ocean. All the beasts, birds and fishes will be diseased; famine aud civil strife will destroy most ot* the human beings left a livo by plague; and, dually, two years of lire?lrom 1885 to 1887?will rago with fury in every part of the globe , In 1887, tho star of ?Bethlehem wi'l re-appear in the Cas3iopia's Chair, the immediate results being universal war mid portcntious boods aud ship wrecks. North America is to bo involved in a civil war, unless a Ntipoicou lises up to quell it; but dur ing these terrible days the Pacilic Stilles will be a pe rfect Paradise of Peace compared with the hellish strife that will be waging through out the world The few people that may manage to survive till 1887 will have reason to be thankful. Peace in New York. Good news conies from New York. The factions arc becoming reconciled, and John Kelly is at last placated. The excellent New York c.orrespon den* of tho Philadelphia Ledycr, in his letter of the 5th, says: "John Kc! 1 ^j'^^'il^^^^^^^^ mittcd themselves*'to the 6u|irjrVft of whoever may \\o nominated by the? ^Natj?al Convention. Assurances to that cfleet ' have, within the' it days j list, been given to prominent Lcmocratic leaders from other States, who have come here expressly with a view of bringing about a pacification between Tammany and the Tilden faction. I have reason to believe that a double leaded announcement to this effect will appear, in .he course of a day or two, b? Mr. Kelly's newspaper organs.*' The same correspondent says this is v? ry favorable to Tilden's nomina tion. Gubernatorial. A correspondent of.the Abbeville 1'ress and Jiunnri' has nominated Hon. 11. F. Perry for Governor, lie iuti malos that ho wants more than two Ivichmouds iu tbo field, and dou't want to see the number whittled down to. Clary and Hagood. That ex-Gover nor Perry is opposed to a third term in Grant, is no indication that ho won hi object to a second term for himself At all events it would be I sate to try him.. Among other things, the New York iS'm/i says that "'Mr. Seymour rat ks to day as the most scholarly, the most comprehensive, the most finished of living American orators." Ho have no doubt that this high praise is in every sense deserved. Horatio Seymour is to-day the great est living American, without fear, reproach or prejudice; too great to be ambitious, even, lie will not seek the P resiliency, nor will he dccltua to accept it when asked to do so by the almost unanimous voice of his parly and a largo majority of the electors of the land. Such a man it will ho not only a privilege but a p Icasure to \ otc for. A young lady, living not a thous and miles from Atlanta, sentayouug mau in I he city a Christmas present in the shape of a white handkerchief with his name prettily embroidered in one comer. The gift was accom panied by the following clever verse: ''This little present plainly shows, I 'Omctimes think of thee; Now, ever/ time you blow your neb? )\ id yon remember nie?" I A binilo on the face is worth two in n tumbler.
