FRIENDSHIP DOTS.
Friendship, Hov. 11,1800.
It seems that Friendship will
have to get new citizens foranotli
er year, as the old ones aro going
to leave. Rev. B. W. Davis aud
Mrs. E. B. Howell nre the families
that are going to leiye. We regret
their departure very much, for it
deprives Friendship of a preacher
and literary and music teacher,
and it will be a hard matter to get
anyone to fill the positions they
have, aud besides that it takes
some of the prettiest young ladies
from this place that the county can
afford. But there is one good con
solation, the boys say they are go

other year, whether they come" or

that went, nobody cau predict.
Gordon’s friends are confident
even further to declare that he will
be elected on tbe first ballot.
ho will have to gain several votes
between now and Tuesday to do It.
Monday there wae nothing in the
way of bis gradual gaining of votes,
Now there is Nat Hammond!
If he will run—ik, remember—
the anti-Gordon opposition Is solid;
no longer a missionary field, so to
speak. His candidacy would give
dignity and conservatism to the op
position, and inspire;confldence.
I believe all factions of the Gor
don opposition are favorably dis
posed towards him; and be would
be tbe first or second choice of more
than 110 of the demoralized opposi
tion.
That statement should be quali
fied—he could gather that many
under reasonably favorable ciroum
stances; if no other blunder, lib#
that of Livingston, Is perpetrated, If
an active canvass Is made; and If,
most Important of all, he will enter
the race.
Ho the matter stands now.
Gordon’s friends confident;
The opposition In -better shape
thau for several days past, still ag
gregating a majority or joint ballot,
still divided amongst several can
didates, and looking to Nat Ham
mond for deliverance.
What the outcome will be—the
Lord only know*! v .
To-morrow night there will be a
caucus of anti-Gordon members of
tbe legislature to agree upon one
candidate. This Is from the Inside,
