Nisbett is not as great a rail road magnate as Jay Gould, but be certainly has given his aid to ward building many. Interest in the Dade convention has somewhat subsided, as every one concedes the county to Clem ents by a large majority. wisar- —— The iamiliar face of Dave Kiser could be seen.on our streets a few days tiiis week. Dave has been living in Memphis but will remove to Huntsville this week. It is plain to the view by the Colonel’s record that he was in fa vor of allowing for railroads, but we will not state positively that the Colonel was over in favor of allowing for betterments. A buzzard with a bell on his neck marked ‘1883” was recently found dead in Georgia, and now that Yankee State has something more co brag about.—Detroit Free Press. W ; c are not braggarts, but there was a time when we could boast of fair samples of the buzzard, but they flew off to pursue the work or dained them by nature—i Elbe clear ing up'of putrescent and foul mat ter. In other words they could not exist in an atmosphere of purity, therefore are steeping themselves in Northern corruption. The contest foi the Congressional nomination is becoming spirited and the nomination of Clements is not yet assured. He has, undis puted, h loyd C votes, Haralson 2 votes, \\ alter 2 votes, Chattooga 2 votes and Gordon 1 vote (as the delegation is divided ). It is thought h ! ’ will carry thudding, thus giving him 15 votes. Col, I. E Shumate has Catoosa 2 votes, WliittioM 2 votes, blurry 2 votes and Gordon 1 vote; total 7. C. E. Philips has Cobh 4 votes, and those votes would probably not go to Clements as second choice, Bartow with 1 votes. Dude with 2 votes and Polk with 2 votes are yet to act, and am doubtful. Col. Clements must have two votes from 011) . 0 f f}j,. S(> counties to secure a majority. Can he g ■* them? Cons. Jerable doubt exist.; a. to whether Col. Clements can carry Bartow, but a prominent gentle man who is thoroughly acquainted with Bartow politics says be will. Dade is assured, and if he carries Bartow the “mountain colt” is safe. The campaign will fairly open to-day at Rising Fawn. The first guns will be tired, and before the chill winds of November shall freeze some of the candidates to death there will be lots of speaking to the dear down-trodden, much abused people, and a great deal of key distributed to arouse their lat ent energies, and nerve them to the task of voting for the man who is to lift off the yoke of oppression. They will address the people of Cloverdale Saturday. HON. A. J. JEFFREY. We announce in this issue the name of A. J. Jellrey,as a candi date for coroner, of Dade county. No candidate has yet taken the held whose record would furnish such a theme for the pen of Hie journalist as that of xMr. Jeffery. Mr. Jeffrey’s war record is calcu lated to suit the most exacting vote upon the point. After serving some time in the Confederate ser vice, and gaining the admiration of his comrades,ami the respect of his officers. Air. Jeffry then threw up his commission and joined the Federal iorces. By serving in both ranks we, see manifested the pure disinteredness ol our candidate to all the great issues of ttio.se days, and like a true soldier battle lor tne cause with which he may be asso ciated. Mr. Jeffery is a man of unconquerable energy, and a tlior- j ough and enlhuastic Christian, and j is lilted to hold ihe office of Coro ner oi Dade county. “THE RECORD.” F-His record there shows that he opposed, and assisted in defeating mostof the plundering schemes the carpet-baggers tried to fix upon the 1 State.—Walker county Messenger, on Hon. J. C. Nisbett. The editor of the Messenger cer tainly understands the art of using the English language, or the plac ing of the proper in tlgr proper place, The Messenger says the Colonel assisted in defeating “most of the ‘plundering schema.” What a pity the Colonel didn’t asll in and defeat them all. Wo do not know how many the Colonel help defeat, but we do know of a few that the Colonel did not help to defeat. In the journal of the House of 1868. page 394, the vote was taken on a bill to loan the credit of the State to the South Georgia & Flor ida railroad company. Col. Nis bott voted for the bill, Again on page 479 the vote is re corded on a bill to extend the aid of the State to the Macon & Agusta railroad company. Col Nisbett voted for the bill. On the 17th of Feb, 1869. journai of the House, page 246, is recorded the vote on a bill to loan the credit of the State to the completion of the Memphis branch railroad. Col. Nisbett voted for the bill. On the 2nd of March, 1869, page 470, the vote was taken on the bill to aid the Albany <fc Brunswick company. The vote is not record ed, but the bill was passed; and on the 3rd of March, 1869, journal of 1869, page 477, a motion was made to reconsider the action of <he House in granting aid to the Al bany & Brunswick railroad com pany. Col. Nisbett voted against reconsideration. On the same day the House voted a gains t re c< >n si dera tion. On the same day the House vot ed on a bill to loan the credit of the State to the Norrh Georgiul rail roadcompany. The bill failed to pass, but Col. Nisbett voted for it. On the Bth day of March, 1869, journal of the House, page 554. is recorded the vote on a bill to loan the credit of tlv State to the Car t “rsville A VamvKstrailroad com pany. Col. Nisbett voted for the hill. On page 622. journal 1869, is re corded tin* vote out- a bill to loan the ei' dit of tie- State to th< Ala bama A Chattanooga railroad com pany. Nisbett voted for tie bill From this it appears that Col. Nisbett voted for all the State aid I measures that come before the leg islature while he was a member, and that too while the State was in an impoverished condition from the eflecte of the war. Oh, consist ency, thou art a jewel. Last Thursday was election day in Hamilton county Tenn., and Passengers on the A. G. S. train Thursday morning saw rather im pressive evidence of the fact. In a little cluster of bushes opposite the depot at Wauhatchie was to be seen an impromptu ballot box pre sided over by a dignified body of election managers with usual tally sheets etc. The scene around the place of voting had all the ap pearance of a modern election— the same “hustling about,” caucus ing, etc., only intensified by the rustilcity of the place, yet some thing elese lent a novelty to the scene. Astride a barrel was an old commoner. The barrel was on a “slidq,” and to the “slide” was hitched a gray horse. Something was being drawn from the barrel and given out in a big tin cup. Alike Allison, with his head out the window, took in the situation, and at once made a dash for the bar rel and called for a cup of the bev erage ;it was handed him. A swal low sufficed; it was not liquor; Mike was disappointed; the train started off; th<‘ cup,of cider was landed in the ditch,Mike mounted the train, pursued by the irate ci der vender.
