COUKlY POLITICS. JCdilor Oi'un<j<liury Timm This your is pregnant with inter ests of 11 diversified nature lor us, hii'i among them nil, none compares with polities, li stsinds head .-11i? I should er above the rest. To have our inter est properly husbanded abroad, we should purify it at home. Lei ns set things in order in our own houses, .weep well before our own doors, und then will we be the better able to rectify things abroad. How is this to be done ? Well, Mr. ISditor, I am neither a politician nor bus it been my good fortune to spring from such j ,-i family, but however humble our' walks in life, und however low stand upon the ladder of fame, we are nevertheless entitled, not only loan opinion, but the liberal laws of our land, give us Ihe high prerogative of expressing thai opinion. Wo see every where over our Southern country, not only :i desire, but u linn resolve on the part of the ltndicsil parly to reorganize its slialored ranks and meet us with all their strength and strategy, and, if possible, win a victory upon the political battle Hold of 1880. To antagonize and defeat their plans, we should i-i like manner marshal our forces, and <lo so now. Not a day is tobe lost. Wo have an elllcient sind fearless leader in the person of our County Chairman. lie has vert properly been styled the Cicero of the County: ami we doubt if his superior :is a speaker can be found Ihroughopl (lie State. A host of men, good and true, stund ready to do his bidding. Doubtless Iiis plaits lire nil laid und carefully laid, h would be presumption in the ex treme for one weak as myself to dare mention a suggestion as to lion mat ters should beebiulueted to make this cninpsiigii a success, when one so astute is at the helm. Wiih flushing .,...1 i Oi.,,.:..<.? \\. ......... i have otic object in view. Nearly all of our State .-in I ('oiitity olllcers arc lo be elected this year. In reference to the former I scarcely have a prefer ence, simply because I know very little: of the gcul lernen whose names have been mentioned in connection with these important olllccs. bill be lieve I had father see (?eil. Ilhgood occupying the gubernato:ial chair Hum uny other name now la-fore i bei public. BUI I desire To spcakdnore pstrtieiilsirly about County olllccs. H?ing from the Fork, I would like to present one name ul least, for legis lative honors, from that section; If you recoiled .-it our last noiniuating Convention, Dr. John < *. Molimin came very near being elected one of the nominees on the lirst or second ballot, und was kepi in the lieh I to the Just, aiid would have been chosen, had not I lie Fork becii given two represciitatives til ready. So it was not for any personal ol yect ions he was defeated, but the Convention deemed it rather :i monopoly to have three out of live from tin- same section. I think 1 echo three-fourths the send J incut of the Fork when I say we wish | Dr. John C. Molimin to represenl us in the next legislature, and we ink*' this opporl u nil \ of apprising t he pub lie of that lad. Dr. 11. is in eveiy sense <d' the word a practical man. Plnving received :i liberal collateral education^ ho entered nnd graduated ul the Medical College, but having a distaste for the profession, sihnndon ed it for thai of agriculture, in w hich Held he has labored with greal suc cess, nnd may justly he styled the Dixon of Orntigoburg. The Dr. Into beeii and is still edifving the farming community with :i number of sirticlcs upon practical farming, whieh arc very interesting and highly instruc tive' We ;isk. no belter man than Dr. II. lo represent our interest in lho legislature. And now once more and I have finished. The otjlce of ('onnty < h t k is like- | wise to be lilh d ai the next term of election.

Modern maidens do not care :is much for hearts of stee l in their wooers as they do for bulky hank ae- j counts. -V big balance on the right side outweighs the entire lack of heart and brain; a sensible result of living in a practical age. A Sunday School scholar was ro (ptested lo learn "Matthew xv. xii. and \i\."' when he astounded the teacher by jumping up with the ex clamation : "dt can't be done; 'taint iii I he blocks !"
