If we have not non misjudged mihjuu^cu the t size and of our good Pies dents hirkb backbone, me the government is the stronger. Ex-Governor Seymour, of New York, democratic candidate for pres¬ ident in i£68, died at his home in that state last Friday. He was a statesman of eminent ability and had reached a ripe old age. It is a most remarfable fact that everv defeated presidential candidate of the democratic party is now dead HancockLd*STymow. nsi-as*«• The'dudes s* decades presidents ot the last two only Johnson, Grant, ^arheid and Hayes—-are dead.

As long as this is a democratic country, a citizen should not be re¬ quired to give up one office before he may become a candidate ter an¬ other. The fact that he serves the people in one capacity, should not prevent a tender of his services in another capacity. There is no im¬ propriety in a judge asking to be made governor, and no impropriety in his using every honorable means i l his power to secure the place. If our good brother of the Sa vannah Local has anything to say in the interest of silver, the fact that he is not a United States senator or the editor of a big daily like the Morning News or the Times should not re strain him from talking right out. He mav not have as extensive a hearing as he could wish, but this need not deter him from properly in¬ forming the readers of the Local on all topics of interest. He has just as much righ to ventilate his views on silver as President Cleveland has, and in our opinion they are far sounder. JOSEPH L.DENNIS, PROPRIETOR.

Barnes. In the exercises the humor Q us and pathetic were delightfully intermingled, and the program was unusually entertaining. At its close, response to a call from the Union, Mr . R A Russell of Chipley, made a brief talk. While as he stated, he did not believe in forcing temper ance, he believed m it as preached f rom the pulpit, taught around the hearthstone, and instilled by temper an ce societies. He considered the -work in which our Union was en gaged in a noble woik, and regretted that temperance societies did not ex¬ i s t in his boyhood. He gave excel lent advice to the boy, present,which they wiU do well to remember as long dS e f T , •„ • cp. . day nightTeek a the re^dence of * B >♦* LOCAL AND PERSONAL.
