Still we hoard the Judge say to the same tsuly ou a former occasion that while a He publican himself, li s felt bound by Hie wishes of his Democratic constituents, because they had united with his own party to elect him. Now that he owes his present position to a strictly Rcpulr Mean vote, will it he strange if tie stands by his party when it couio to the crucial test ? Tim circus is coming, The delusive poster at tracts the eye. and the soul of the small boy yearneth. B'e like the circus. Despite the stale jokes of the clown, and the hollow mockery of the gorgeous show bill, its fascinations are resistless. Of course wo like it in a godly way. The scantily clad virgins have no charms for us. H e are like the righteous clergyman or the sober minded,fauijly man who goes to see the menagerie. But whatever may bo our pleasure it falls far shot of the blissful joy oj the average African. To him the tinselled glitter of the circus ring ,s a World of bliss, and is second only to the delights of the celestial paradise. Plkasant Stovall, of the Caront dt and Vonstitutionulint emphasises by a lengthy editorial the complaint of “An Old Tmvclci " that ho was tumble to get a drink in Ailauta at three o’clock in the morning. Indeed tho chagrin of this worthy j>srsonagn was so great that he shook the dust of the barbaric -city from ids feet and left it in disgust. The editorial laments the inhumanity of tho city ordinance which requires tiie bar-rooms to close at twelve,and ap- 4 wills to Southern chivalry against the odious enactment. It finally winds up j i an eloquent plea for the thirsty den i/en. and demands that tho constitu¬ tional right of a free iwople to call for beer shall not la* impaired or restl icted.

The average cost of raising cotton in this State it is said, is nine cents jmr pound. Maj. Joties claims to have made over a bale and a half to the acre at less than Uirn cents |jer pound.

It is a bold and fearless ar¬ rangement of the stock gamblers and moneyed rings of the country. As mighk hare been expected it created much comment. Among those who deem themselves the subjects of an attack criticism is rife. Among the great mass of the people it lias met with the warmest commendation. It struck the keynote of |>opular feeling. The issue it makes will yet ring from the hustings in every quarter of the land. It is a precursor of a great strife which is to come, Dr. Ieltoli in commenting upon the letters of Judge Hook in these col limns predicts it. But, whatever may be its polit¬ ical aspect, the statute books siteak plainly upon the subject. Judge Snead did not go out of his way. The wisdoln of our fore-fathers sought to cope with the evil. Guided by a sound public policy they laid down laws to ^repress it. Anil while these laws have long been treated as a dead letter, it was in the fulfillment of a plain legal duty that Judge Snead dwelt upon them in Ids charge. The time was op¬ portune. At no time perhaps has the country suffered more from the evils of speculation. The question arises, how aru we to repress them V If not from the bench and the jury box, where are we to expect an effective remedy ? We have no idea that this charge will result in any decided action ; we would be much surprised to see a successful uruiinal prosecution spring from it. However much we may commend the , spirit of the charge or the justice of the laws it seeks to expound, we can¬ not. lose sight of its practical bearing. The class of men at whom it aims is too large and too powerful in sueh a community as Augusta, They forma bulk of the influential citizens. They make up the juries and give shape to their action. Still this does not mi del the of Judge Snead “v less course proper, or detract in the least from the force of his remarks. We have always looked upon him as a fearless and con seieutious judge, and It a vo seen much to confirm us in the belief.
