For Southern Watchman. Mr. Editor: As the season is fast approaching, and now is, when the peo ple of the various districts will be con vening lor the purpose of nominating for the different offices, we -would like to say one word in reference thereto. Now, sir, this thing of selecting can didates, heretofore, has been done about in this wise : A handful of the “ rag-tag and bob-tail” of each militia district have gotten together, frequently in the back-room of a groggery, under the su pervision of some aspiring *‘ bully,” or some other equally forward and objec tionable character, and nominated those who would condescend to pay for such votes as are cast by the ** impounded,” bloated, reeling and disqualified wretch es who call themselves freemen. Such gatherings disperse and publish to the world that the people have done so and so, when, God knows, it were belter to have said dogs had done it. Why, sir, the impression was made upon inymind, from nay earliest recol lection, that good honest citizens and Christians should keep away from such places. To a very large extent, this has been the course pursued, and all sucH arrangement* have therefore been left in the hands of a few clever citizens, doubtful cha.ac ers, drunken natives and jabbering foreigners. This ought not so to be. And we call upon alt good men—Christian or 110 Christian— Minister anil layman, politician or no politician, to take such matters into their own hands, and thereby secure h mest nominations, fa thful and capable offi cers. Farmers, mechanics, laborers, mer chants, doctors, (lawyers we leave out of the list, from pundeniial motives.) and even gentlemen, will please consider and act. Un'ess the ** good and true” do take this matter in hand, we may look for a continuation of the notorious corrup tions of the past. If there is i.o risponse to this, be it understood—we shall spring Woman’s Rights, and urge that she be allowed to select from the patriotic “ lovers of the dear people,” the candidates, and we believe, shall be able to carry it; and if •so, for one of the fattest berths, I know who is certain to vote for me. Yours, with a true regard for the dear •people. K, N. t D. A dispatch from Washington says : “It is an error to suppose that the French Spoliation claims are effectual- iy smothered by the veto. If the House should pass the Senate bill for the es tablishment of a Court for the adjudica tion of claims upon the Government, the claims under the vetoed bill can move ■before this Court de novo. If a legal tribunal, such as the one proposed, should decide in favor of the claimants, •no further interposition need be antici pated from the Executive.” /ureign Jims. -i. =— ===== n'»w—■ kjiMMMI •••-vc*-.
