Oconee County, Out. 15, *77.
Mr. Editor—The question, “ Who
•hall represent this conntv in the next
Leguiaiare?” should be one of deep
interest to every good and intelligent
citizen. Never before, I believe, have
the people seemed so determined to
pot into offices of trust and honor the
very best melt only. Men who are
the living embodiments of the new
spirit of the! South; men of the peo
ple, thoroughly undemanding the
necessities and. wishes of their con
stituency, and who have the spartan
firmness*tO do right and maintain the
eausitfat every hazard. Those
lifications are found in Andrew B.
>n; who, besides being as well
qnalified a* any other man we could
get, b;ut the advantage of having been
q'
a warm reception during their visit.
We commend them to the, citizens cf
Green county, satisfied that they will
give them entire satisfaction, both in
deportment and fine music.
