The election of the first as Judge of the Southwestern circuit, and of the second as Solicitor General, meets with un qualified approbation among all classes of oar people. As a townsman of for mer days we like to see Americas lustrated,” and the Legislature has "gone and done it.” But what shall 1 say of the defeated candidates—much little—shall I with weeping eyes co dole with them, and say to each bold np! for another and a better time, or shall I apply to each of that vast anny of office seekers in its application, the story of Faddy and his Protestant cow I will tell it as it was told to me: "Pad dy Murphy and his wife Bridget, after many years of hard labor in ditching and washing, had accumulated a suf ficiency to purchase a cow, which they did at the first opportunity. As it wat bought of a Protestant neighbor, Pad dy stopped on his way borne at the house of a Priest, and procured a bottle of holy water with which to exorcise the false faith out of her. “Isn't Bhe a foine creature,” asked Pat of the admiring Bridget. “Jest hold her till I fix the shed.” To save the precious fluid from harm he took it into the house and set it up in a cupboard until he had fixed thiugs. Then be retained and bronght the bottle ont again, and while Bridget was holding the rope, proceeded to pour it upon her back. But poor Paddy had made a flight mistake. Standing within the same closet was a bottle of aquofortea that had been procured for a far different purpose, and as it dropped upon the back of the poor cow, and the hair be gan to smoke, and tbe flesh burn, she exhibited decided appearances of rest lessness. Pour on more, Paddy,” shouted Bridget, as Bhe tugged at the rope. "I’ll give her enough now, said Pad dy and he emptied the bottle. Up went the heels of the cow, down went her head, and over went Bridget and hall a dozen of the "childers,” and away dashed the infuriated cow down the street, to the terror of all the moth- s and the delight of the dogs. Poor Paddy stood for a moment breathless with astonishment and then clapping his hands npon his hips, look ed sorrowfully, and exclaimed: "Be jabers Bridget, but isn’t tbe Protestant strong in her the baste.” Now make the application. An English tourist who visited this country a few years ago, remarked that the taste of the American people ran in very singular channel, "for. said he, 'your fences and even some of your houses are pasted over with a notice of ‘care all.’ ” This remark of the English traveller was very forcibly brought to my recollection upon seeing pasted npon the fence in front of one of the residences in a neighboring city, these delectable (?) letters: 8. 8. 8.

LETTER FROM UOHEE MILgL. Ucnxn Mills, Ga., Nov. 21,1880. Editor Returlicar—I noticed your edito rial which appeared in yoar valuable W**e- of 12th instant, relative to the 8olid Sooth and.have waited very patiently for thi past week expecting to sec na anbisaed, on- prejudiced solution of the national question, so fsr as national politics concerns ths South, but I was doomed to disappoints:eat. Why k it that ths sage saws of our day will not t to solve such important questions? I have not been in politics long enough to hnvo any experience whatever; but common sene* ought to tench any sane man that tha great “Solid South” has worked the destruc tion of tke Democratic party and formed i ‘Solid North” in connection with a semi solid Erat and West, I fully concur with you in breaking np ths Solid 8onth, and I ths majority is standing in the tarns from ths simple fact, that there is nothing else left for us to do. One neat fanlt of the Democratic leaders has been, they have e< tided too much in our Northern brethi thereby suffering themselves swindled out their rights by feigned friends. It is al most too late now to attempt to remedy the evil, that is to undertake to break up tbe “Solid Sonth,” if it had been done four years since, or if it had never been boasted of, we, the Southern Democracy, would have been masters of the situation instead of occupy ing a position of servility. Again, since the election I have heard mtny prominent er that they would, in the futnre, port the Republican ticket; tkese arc who were born and christened Democrats, they were not, or rather are not. proselyted, bnt old “Charter” members. Many others say they care not who is the President so the laws of the country are enforced, that aseertion indicates a spirit of much carelt ness and disloyalty. Hate* I consider the “Solid South” already broken, upand a thor ough reconstruction of the parly as being eminently necessary. The very popular sen. timent that it afloat, that we ought to in struct our electors to elect Garfield unani mously is to my opinion, one of the gravest insults that has been offered us since the close of the war notwithstanding the rumor of Wade Hampton,* and other great men’s advocacy of that very humiliating act. I, and every other man who has a spark of the of liberty and independence remain- till xealously oppose any such an out • rage upon ths party to whieh we belong. The Solid South is virtually broken up and I for one thank the Allwise Creator for it. iow 1st us surviving Democrats, lay the idation of another party, upon the same principles of the on* that has just capitula ted and been wiped out of existence, ad- hearing strictly, as we have always done, to nstitution of our forefathers. Let ns maintain all 8tat* government, and send no delegates to the National Nominating Con- ions, let the North, West and East de in# the candidates then we, the South, join either we ehooee, East, North or West.

It is quite a fine body of men, being composed of some of the best citizens of the county. Wm. C. Gill is the fore man. The most important matters that claims its attention is the killing of I. P. Tison by J. D. Callaway, and they have just found a true bill for murder against him. I cannot say when he will be tried, not this court perhapi Judge Crisp thinks of holding an at journed term, as he will be compelled to go to Macon county to hold conrt next week, if so in all probability he will be tried then. In attendance upon court, the usual bar is here, except judge D. A. Vason, who is providentially hindered having received an injury a few days ago. Col. Ilawkins who has been so long absent is here upon his cratches, and his cases are being disposed of rapidly possible. As yet only a few cases have been submitted to juries aud though quite a number have been dis posed of either finally or for the term. A yonng applicant named Gross examined in open court and admitted to the bar. He was a student of Mr. B. P. Hollis of your city and his exam ination was exceedingly creditable both to himself and preceptor. Besides the bar and other people, terested in the court. Col. C. Hancock, and Mr, Callaway are in tendance, each representing his respec tive paper. May both papers live and flourish and spread their benign influ ence npon all around. I regret to learn of the condition of Mr. D. P. Jackson, of this community, and perhaps before this reaches you he will be dead. He has been ill for sev eral days of inflammation cf the brain. It is to be hoped that be may recover.
