White filled his appointment at the Presbyterian church yesterday and preached an edifying sermon from the text, Heb. 11:24-20. Very good rains fell about here during the last few days and high winds and much electricity accompanied them. No serious damage from winds was done except a cabin Iteing blown down. The annual "cool sp?ll in August," followed the nuns and there was a decided drop in the temperature just to make it feel more pleasant. There was much talk and guessing the why and wherefore about not a copy of Tiik Times coming to this postofflce two weeks ago. [We have the poet oflice authorities tracing this last package.?Ed.] It may be a lame or it may be a strong excuse in times of politics for a man to try to overthrow an office seeker, and i marshal all others that he can influence to help him, because some time he was not treated in a way particular swe?t, or Bugar coated. In such case one should make the fight alone, unless he has never treated anybody badly, nor talked about anybody. In that case the matter is changed entirely, and he should get all he can to enthrone immaculate men. Last^week was one of campaigners for Union county. On the 12th I attented the speaking of candidates for the U. 8. Senate, and paid close attention, except at intervals I roamed off a little and paid attention to something else, or somebody else; never mind who. I think these Bix men are a body of able men, and either can, if elected, fill the place very well?it is hard to say who is the ablest. I don't know, but almost every |[man knows, or rather believes be does, who he bad rather see in oflice, and will vole that way. unless some electioneer addles his mind and causes him to-change his vote. I enjoyed that meeting, for I always like to hear good speakiDg, no matter who does it. On the 13th the county campaign opened here, with a full delegation of the I-wish-to-be-your- ] servants. On the 14th I followed them ru.iuu ?u ? -? 1 111 vmiuam, miu viicic LUC UlCCLlUg pabSCU oft' (juietly with none of the uneventful8, ai d onl> the same old, old story of each pi eventing his case, and asking a reasonable suppoit. Of course, eveiyone knows some must feel defeat, and each entertains a little dread that he may be the one, and hoping heartily that he may not. There is much activity among friends of each candidate. After this meeting the aggregation moved on to the next place, the Editor of The Times making up a "large" part, and I know he will let the readers hear from him. I would liked to have gone too, but business told me plainly, "No more for this time, back to work," and I obeyed. I hope that whoever is elected will prove their talk has not been wind, and that we will not be fooled as we have been by the clouds lately. If you please, you may erect aircastle monuments, or real; unfurl hero's banner, flame aloft the cheering light of the beauties of true generosity, and sing of a% smile's bewitching power; then take a reasonable proportion of each ingredient, blend them all together and vote it to Carlisle and Fish Dam township as their part for generosity, for it could be nothing else. They gave a big free dinner to campaigners and visitors on campaign day, August 14, at that place. It is a big undertaking to give such a dinner lo between six and eight hundred people. It was a politicnic, ? -?--ax i 1 ? ? - * - a [iuuiiiuii uict-Ling, a uaruecure ana picnic combined?better than a coronation illumination. I guess the candidates, all, want to vote for Carlisle. There were many men, a full quota of healthy candidates, and nearly as many ladies and young girls, and a great many colored people?to hear the speaking. The candidates behaved like the gentlemen that they were. I liave no regrets for going that day. It was even better than I expected. I met many friends, both ladies and gentlemen, some from Chester. As I have said in another place, the Editor was there and he can tell of the meeting better than I can. I will only tell of my part. You may know I had a nice time with some young people, and listening to speeches. All listened wpll most of tiie time. A young friend of mine just would have me make the acquaintance of some interesting young ladies, and instantly there was an electric suggestion in the air that I felt vaguely with uneasiness, and did not know whether I was slightly choked, wanted water, or hadn't had dinner enough. But I went with him, and I am here, don't you see. I have talked with several and they all say that they never saw anything to compare with the dinner. Verily, that section is wearing a big blue ribbon, pinned on by every one wno was present. _ Hky Pknvbr. The County Campaigners.

Thought the roads had been put in better shape bj the present board than they had ever been. J. A. CIIAMHBRS for re-election. County was in debt $8,000 when elected, but had got it out of debt, and it was now a little ahead. Roads were in fine condition, better than ever had been. There were $115,000 of the It. R. Bonds still against the county. The bonds had been floated atfl per cent, instead of 7 per cent, as was calculated on, saving the county $20,000 in twenty years. The redemption of bonds had been stopped because the premium had gotten too high and a sinking fund had been established Instead. At time of maturity this sinking fund is expected to be sufficient to pay for them at par. That is all the holders can demand. Was not in favor of building a new court house by issuing bonds. It would cost $40,000 to build a modern court housse. Was opposed to Union county issuing any more bonds. Was willing to make any necessary improvements on tlie old court house. M.
