WasmxGTos, March 6, l64l.
DEAR Sin Upon your renewed request, cannot,
with Justice any longer withhold from you my cert-
cate Of confidence in the efficacy Of the Life Pre-
server as a cure for hoarsencss and cough
In the fall of 1910 was much exposed to night
air, and often took cold, which was attended by
hoarseness and slight cough, without fever or much
other indisposition In December was scarcely ev-
free from this complaint, and during the early part
of the next February was never without some de-
gree Of hoarseness cough until despairiog OF the
suliiciency Of Peases Hoarhound Candy, and com
mon remedies, was induced to make trial OF your
Life Preserver. Before the middle Of March last,
the use of your medicine seemed to be the great
of relief from the hoarsencss and slight cough
which had long annoyed me, and which all The
usual remedies had failed TO remove.
IL any one be led to make the experiment as
did happily of the offered good, he will at least
find in il pleasant and harmless physic as can be
administered in the mode prescribed by you.
am, very respectfully yours
JOHN LEEDS KERR.
Mr.. RICHARD THoiiFeoN.

COMMUNICATIONS.

Good, decidedly. On the day of The State Con
vention we were accosled bya political opponent,
who entrealed us TO get up 10 more reforms. lie
said the country had been promised reform, if
they could have a change. The change had been
wrought, and The reform the people could en-
dure more reforms ill they had recovered from
the effects OF this. ~ Patriot
There is certainly weight and meaning I'M the
above; and zoe agree with the editor of the
Patriot that it is decidedly good. Pretended po-
litical reforms are the humbugs on which our
modern demngogues have manufactured much OF
their political capital. The people, in every in
stance have been The sufferers. There was the
"extravagance and corruption" reform of 1928,
which as Gen. Wilson once very fecitousy re-
Marked reduced the expenditures OF government
by the process OF Reduction ascending. Then
there was the Bank Reform" of 1880, in Yer
mont, which, among other things established
bank in Felchville and another in Montpelier
Has the Patriot forgotten thar reform and its Clio
rous results Where is that BLACK LIST?
The Wings of 1910 were the opponens OF UNI
limited Executive power, aud the friends OF II
sound currency. They have been wounded in
the house of their frends and The views OF their
opponents have prevailed. So fal as the question
of the currency is concerned, our A" democrntic'
friends cannot consistently complain oflhe result
On this subject, there has been no change and no
reform. President Tyler, far rs the currency
is concerned, has adopted course perfectly sat
isfuctory 10 our opponents, aud it is not for them
TO complain Of the consequences. ID.

Mr.. Calhoun in The Eeld.-A great mass con-

the number in attendance is estimated at three

Hon. Henry w. Conner, long Member Of Con
gress from the Lincoln District. Addresses were
made by ex U. S. Senators Bedford Blown and
Rober, Strange, Burton Craige, &c, Crooke of s.
c. and many others. Letters OF sympathy from
Messrs. Calhoun McDuffe, Buchanan, Wright,
Woodbury. and eX Gov, Polk, 1t was grand
gathering. In closing its of il, the Char.
lotte n. C.. Jeffersonan Loco remarks:
"No expression Of opinion was male by the
Convention on the subject Of the Presidency !;
though we were gratifed to find that numerous
and respectable body, coming together from all
parts of the Stale, almost unanimous in favor of
Mr.. Calhoun, the great champion OF the Constllu-
ton and Equal Rights. II was thought pre-
mature to make nomination for the Presidency
at this time. One thing is certain, however, Jas
shown by the feelings of this Conventional that
Mr.. Calhoun is the almost unanimous choice Of
the Democracy of our State for President A.
bout this there can be no mistake. We shall have
more 10 say on this subject shortly"
The locofocos are boosting of great changes in
that (the Westerly section Of the State, caused by
the addresses Of their candidate for Governor,
Louis ID. Henry. They say that Gov Morehead
is square out for Protective Tariff, and they are
trying hard to arouse the old Southern Tariff
prejudice against him. We shall know what
luck they have next August.
John G. Calhoun, President! What say the Yer
monters to that?

left alone with the colored lad. McCue returned
to the field, pretending that it was to help Freder
ick but when he (Freierick) had finished his
work, and was showing the little boy how to hun.
die the hoe, McCue attacked him with no G, and
followed up his blows until he supposed he had
killed both the boys. Young Ptttes recovered so
to call for help, and it is hoped that he will sur
vive; but the colored boy died Of his wounds on
Sunday. McCue escaped by swimming the river
and n reward of 800 is offered for his arrest
