An Interesting Case.

Ihe following circumstances, as related
to Is by DR.. ScuAErER, viii be prove in
tersting to our readers. In September.

in this county, accidentally swallowed .

was three-fourths of an inch long. three
eighths of an inch wide at one end. and
one eighth at the other The only incon-
venience which arose, was hemorrhage.
occurring almost monthly for four years
thereafter, and lasting each Time three or
four days; but this oflale years has been less
frequent, and since he had been under treat

for several months. While engaged IN
blowing on Thursday last the plow hit a
stone, and he WAS struck by the handle.

General Sam Houston.

When the news first reached us Of the
election of Houston as Governor Of Texas,
the opposition papers were quite jubilant
over the result-hailing it as a defeat of
the Democracy. But, strange 10 say, they
have for some time been as dumb as oys-
ters-you can't get word out of them on
the subject. The secre; Of this silence is,
that Gen. Houston made speech at Mach.
adoches, in which he took the wind COM
pletely out of their sails. He declared
himself a conservative, Union loving, an
;i-aboIiiion, antiKnow-N Nothing, Admin.
istration-supporting Democrat" He pro-
ceeded to euIogize Mr.. Buchanan as IAN
honest man and patriot; he took The
reius of government under trying circum.
stances--he has been honest and faithful,
and if all the evils have not been remedied,
it has not been from want of effort on
his part You did well to make him Pres
ident, and when all the clouds which have
gathered about his administration are clear
ed up, you will find that, surrounded as he
has been by factions which have crippled
his administration, and by difficulties
which were not of his own making. he had
acted wisely and as patriot. He has
obtained an abandonment of the right Of
search by Great Britain. IL he has not
fully met the expectation Of the country it
is the fault of Congress-
In portraying the perils Of disunion. the
General said: '4
"God, when he intends to destroy men.
first makes them mad. Mark mel the day
that produces, dissolution of this Contcd-
eracy will be written in history in the blood
of humanity. All that is horrible in war
will characterize the future of this peo.
ple."'7S
The old General heartily acqueisced in
the decision of the Supreme Court. because
he regarded it as coordinate branch Of
the Government, upon whose decision we
may rely with safety In fact, he avowed
himselfan out -and-out Democrat of the
old ,school--and bitterly denounced all the
factions and ''isms" in his peculiar vein.
No wonder, that the Black Republican
and Know Nothing papers SO suddenly
ceased their chucklirg over his election.

For the Democr;


MR. EDIroR:- The most superficial OBJ
server canno, fail to discover tie marked
difference between the papers of this place
in referance to the candidates for the clerk
ship. You. Mr.. Editor so far as | have
noticed. have pursued gentlemanly
course towards Mr.. Pershing. the Repub-
lcan candidate For this you have the
thanks of your party in particular, and the
conservelive men in general. On the 9TH
er hand, how differently Mr.. Mattingly
has acted towards Mr.. Packard. Every
paper that has been issued from his Press
within the last two months has teemed
with abuse towards Mr.. Packard, and the
Ex. officers in gneral.
The course that is being pursued by the
| Republican proves two things to my
mind conclusively, firstly that the Repub.
licans well know. that unless they make a
desperate effort to prejudice the minds of
the People against Mr.. Packard. that he
will be easily elected; and secondly. lha
there is nothing too low or too mean for
them TO stoop to, in order to elect Mr..
Pershing.
The following are the most prominent
charges which appear in the Rspub ican ;
against Mr.. Paekards re. election: Firstly.
that there was too large bill for stationery
with insiauations that hs had appropriat-
ed portion OF il to his own use. Sec.
ondly. that he has built stately mansion.
and the finest Store Room in Town. Thiid-
ly. that he drives fast horses, which kicks
the dust into thetax payers eyes. and last
ly that he droue his companion from his
house In order TO make room for one who
had larger claim on his affections.
The above are the priucipa! charges pre-
ferred against him. and urged as sufficient
reasons why Mr.. Packard should stand
aside and make room for Mr.. Pershing
All the first settlers in this county, know
