MEssRs EDITORS The Candidates for this Con-

Alfred M. Scales, Esq, addressed the people at
Toms Greek on the 26th instant Mr. Scales made
able and eloquent appeal to the people in regard
to Mr.. Puryear's course on the Kansas Nebraska
bill he placed the Colonel side by side, shoulder to
shoulder and arm in with such abolition:sts as
Giddings Wade, Sumner and Others and made him
feel that not only the Democracy but all the old
fashioned Henry Clay Wings in this County a. least

Mr.. Puryear attempted, in weak and detected man
ner to justify the vote-said that such George
E. Badger and John Kerr were not 70 be his poti-
cal sgnposs and that shortly after the vote was
ken upon the BILL that both Mr.. Kerr and Mr. Badger
to him and expressed deep regret that the bill
had been introduced and that they were truly sor-
~ that they had supported it: (What say you, Mr.
Kerr, to this? Did you, in deep sorrow, apologize
to Mr.. Puryear in the manner which he represents
you to have doneO The facts speak for them

Mr. Puryear advocates the Know-Nothng doc

To PREVENT BoTs HoRsEs.-A person of much
experience in veterinary science is never troubled
with this disease in his horses. His simple practice
during the fall months is to keep greasy cloth in
the stable, and once week rub with it such parts
of the animal may have been attacked by the nit
fly. Grease destroys and prevents the eggs from
Matching.

The Posi- OFFICE DISCRIMINATION the alb

DELIVERY OF LETTERS, &c.-We understand fire.
quent complaints against the department grow out
of the fact that postmasters too often, trusting only
to their memories, tell persons there is mail mat
ter for them when subsequent examination proves
that there was If postmasters would adhere strictly
to the rule of making personal search every time
letters and papers inquired for there would be
more despatch in their delivery.
PosTaAsTERs' ASSISTANTS TO BE SwoRN.-Post-
masters at small offices, we learn, are too much in
the habit of permitting incompetent members of
their families and other persons in their employ
(none of them being sworn, as required by law,) to
change the mails and to perform all the other duties
pertaining to their Offices None but sworn assis-
ants should be allowed to have to the mails
LoANING Observation-Disclosures to newspa-
pers make complaint of the arrival of their
papers, and in some instances intimate that the loss
is occasoned by the fact of the postmaster loanng
to his neighbors the papers of others for perusal
The papers fail to be returned to their proper place.
and hence the dissatisfaction Postmasters are strict
ly forbidden to loan newspapers that are in their
office for delivery.

MEssRs. EDITORS: In looking the Fayette-
vile Argus of the 9th inst, find editorial which
no doubt made some of the followers of &C Sami-
vii laugh. Mr.. Cameron, after abusing Mr.. Kerr
at terrible rate, strikes out on new vein of mu-
sic, and propounds the following question: Have
not he and Thomas L. Clingman been like Jonathan
and Saul-lovely and pleasant together?" What
Monderful discovery-what awise foreseeng
man !! How in the world did you find that out, Mr..
Cameron? Did Samivil bring the news, or did you
merely guess it was so? As the editor is so very
particular about orderly walking nowadays, wish
to look into some of his past conduct. If it be an
objectionable sin for Mr.. Kerr to keep company
with I. L. Clingman, how much less objectionable
do you think it is for you to keep company with
David Reid-the gentleman you seen walk
ing with down Hay Street on the 9th of the pre-
sent month? Now, Mr.. Cameron, if you can tell,
in any fair way, why Mr.. Kerr is not as much justi-
fable in walking with T. L. Clingman you
with David Reid, should like to hear it. Come
out Mr.. Cameron and tell the truth-never disown
your brother, if you did once abuse him; for all is
right now. CHATHAM

The people aoaat to Knoao:
IfMr Miller endorses ALL of Mr.. Rayner's speech,

What works on theology MIR. Rayner has studied
since 1885, which so thoroughly convinced him of
the he labored under at that time? And when
was it he became convinced that " second reforma

the men to carry it on?
The people acould further like to be informed:
When the Register" is going to hoist the name
