and such a general overhauling as never

combination* aie being formed, a re-
shuttling of ths cards, and a new deal
lo be made. There are eiggjt candidates
for the office of shcrilT, with other en
tries to be mute, and nine aspirants for
tlie handling of tly* public money, with
nuine-ious aspirants for the lower offices.
To miviiipulslc the money of a county
like Fayette is wonli looking aftri-, and
it is rumored thaffa hard fight trill lie

There is a strong probability that the
m e for sheriff will be Ins most deter-
•
mined fight of all. Certain combina
tions are working to defeat the present
incumbent, which may iuaugurato an
independent movement. That would
make the present campaign a memora
ble one in the history of Fsyetts county
Democracy, and tend greatly to break
up tho harmony that has heretofore
characterized the grand old pvty. An
old citizen said to the writer yesterday
that he had never known of so much
wire-pulling and chicanery as was at
work now ill Fayette politic*. There ia
some talk of organizing a young maa’a
party.for tho putpoeo of defeating the
old ring, and thus Infuse now lifo and
vigor into the campaign. Thle, it le
said, would Yrritt nwt a wavy etiee^iri
young ana from Brooks Station fbr
treasurer, whoee influence, If thrown
with the Indc|iendents, would consoli
date a very strong oppositioa to the
present county treasurer.
Each candidate lias his barkers, who
seem sanguine of the success of their
respective candid*toe, aud beta arc be
ing mado now, with large odds, that no
man can name tho successful aspirant*.

To tuv. Votkr* or Fat err x County :
I am a candidate for Sheriff, subject
to the primary election to be held No
vember 20, 1836, and If I recriW the
highest number of votes Iex|>cctto run
the race tlirougli, hot subject to a second
primary, which may lie ordered. I do
not believe It is the wish of (lie people
of Fayette to be put to the expense,
time and trouble of holding three elec
tion* for one-office. I do not believe
the people will require a man to leave
hi* homo and family and go to the ex
pense of making three race* to fill on*
i^re. If I am pot ths ow* who reeelve*
tiv* highest number of votes in the pri

heretofore, aad if I am their choice Mn
Ibis election I will discharge my duties
