Tobacco INSPECTORS,

So far as we have been able TO learn the
scheme of the locofocos. in the Legislature. to
take the appointment Of tobacco Inspectors.
from the hands of,he County Courts and con-
fer it upon the Governor. meets with no favor
in this portion of the State. 1t particularly
objectionable. just at this time. because Joseph
has not stood very high with tobacco. since
he made the declaration that. when 4 rebellious
negro knocks the overseer Of a tobacco factory
in the head with an iron poker. it is only an
"uniortunase casualty" which the spirit of the
age. will not allow him to punish. The scheme
is well understood to be one for providing an
alms-house for party mcndicants. If it sue
ceeds. we shall have in short time set of
miserable old hacks billeted upon the planting
interest, who have no more qualification for
,hr post of Inspector. than his little Excelency
has for that of Governor.
