The agony is over, and the sore
head'. arc many. The Hon. George
D. Kice has been made Judge of the
Western Circuit for eight years, and
our talented townsman, Emory Speer
is our Solicitor General. The contest
was a hot one, and it is only to lie re
gretted that so many wise and smart
men had to be left in the cold. May
a kind providence temper the winds to
these. Governor Smith has registered
many life long opponents, men who
hope that they may never look ujton
his like again. It must have been dif
ficult to have made choice when Estes,
Hutchins, King, Thurmond and Judge
Davis were in the field.
Judge Rice is a lawyer of the most
unquestioned ability and integrity, and
his appointment is highly satisfactory
to the lawyers and people of this Cir
cuit. He lost two son j in the Confcd-
erata army, and this coupled with
other great qualifications made him
the successful contestant. As to Mr.
Emory Sj>ccr nothing need be said
here, where he is known. He will
make himself friends, and admired all
through the District upon his first
round, and is the very man to put a
stop to the commission oi crime. The
State has never before had an officer
to represent her of more sterling ability
and worth. His vigorous prosecution
of offenders will have a happy effect
succeeding as it docs the lame attempts
of the late Marlcr. Those who were
disappointed, although they cannot
grace the bench, can still be heard in
the forum and at the bar. Their pow
er for good is not gone. The country
will yet demand their services. Ret
them, remembering the words of the
Post, Hope and Wait! There is to be
a new Judge in 1881 and a new Solici
tor in 1877. Other appointments will
occur at successive periods of eight
and four years ever thereafter. It is
much to be regretted that the Hon.
Joel Abbott Rillups was defeated for
the Judgship in the Ocmulgec Circuit".
George T. Bartlett was appointed. He
bad neither the ability or charactor of
Mr. Biliups. The Senate was loath to
confirm this appointment and time will
vindicate their hesitancy.

, now xp BE POLITE^
Do not try too hard to be polite.
Never overwhelm your friends hy
begging them to make themselves at
Ignne, or they will soau w'ish they were
there. Show hy your actions rather
than your words that you are glad to
see them.
Have enough regard for yourself to
treat your greatest enemy with quiet
politeness! All petty slights are mere
ly meanness, and hurt yourself more
than any one else.
Do not talk about yourself or your"
family, to the exclusion of other topics.
What it you are clevir? Be so, in
order that other folks may think so.
It may be interesting for you to talk
over your ailments, but veiy tiresome
for others to listen to.
Make people think you consider
them elpver and agreeable, and thsy
will lie pretty apt to have a pleasant
impression of yoti reelf.
Treat people just as you would like
to have them treat you.
It is rail 'll easier to lose the good
opinion of jieople than to retain it;
and when pue do2a not care' for the
grfwf opinion of others, he or she isnot
worthy of respect.
Do not excuse your house, furniture,
or the table you set before your guests.
It is fair to suppose their visits are to
you, and not to your surroundings.
The whole machinery of social in
tercourse is very delicate and intricate,
and it is our business to keep all places
of possible friction well suppliid with
t’ c oil of politeness.
