u The F1eenen Of cbntenasn County

Having seen article in the Burlington Time,
OF thu. morning, IN which my name Is brOu slt 10
question, mpaned with reflections upon ms con-
duct, deem u proper aud due % ny self, % say
ri the Freemen of the County. IL is true az
the Editor If the Time, suggests, 1 have held the
Office Of sheriff Of the County nearly seven years
aud suppose that have hitherto been elected to
that office upon the ground that the public good
would he thereby promoted IN the opinion Of the
FIeemen OF the County. All wish u say is, that
during the time | have held the office have en-
deavored 10 discharge its Oneruus duties faithfully
and iearlessly. How far ! have succeeded in my
Undertaking IN 20 doing, the puplc must be my
witness. 10 is true, that have been solicited
again and again, by many Of the most substantial
and dlslnterested men IN the County, 10 have my
name used, a. candidate for the office Of sheriff
IN the coming election and upon m4ture cOnsid-
GRAFTON have consented that it may he 20 used
ami for tn action stand responsible only to the
treemen OF the County, 10 my own conscience, and
20 my God. lay no claim To the office and have
not, and shall not as the Editor OF the Tuner
would lnslnuate has been done, send out ennis
sares % distract the voters Of the County
The freemen Of the County have pied sed them
selves hy the oath which they have taken give their
a. IN their conscience, they shall jude viii most
coEduce 20 the best public good Of the state aud
the Conscientious discharge u this duty must left
T. them. The idea that the Freemen Of the County
have no ri-ht 10 override Caucus nomination i
simply absurd. If they have not this right or If it
d NOT proper Tor them u eNerse Il, whenever they
deem the public good viii thereby be promoted, 1t
Is useless that the Freemen should 20 through the
forms Of an election and IL would be better, at
once % surrender up the exercise Of the elective
franchise 10 the politicians IN our primary meet
iugs.
But II Is 70 he hoped that the time has arrived
when the people viii manifest their ownership, both
la the Federal and state Governments.
Much complaint has been made 70 ne, IN different
sections " the County, In relation 10 the action Of
the County Convention, touching this matter, Of
which have nothing 70 say. Its proceedings are
too well SHOWN 10 need recapitulation-
Now, the Frecmcn OF the County Will permit me
to say them, this is matter which IS 20 be sub
lntted their action, and II they shall Judge the
public good viii be best promoted by the election
Of some other man TO the Office Of Sheriff, l. a. a
good and faithful citizen, shall most cheeriully
acquiesce therein at the same time thanking them
most cordially fr past and unmerIted favors.

eral Grant was walking round the docks at
City Point, when he stopped TO see some ne
groes roll barrel Of bacon on board of
boat. The negroes were unable move it.
when n crusty lieutenant. who stood near.
dressed in his fine blue clothes, shouted
you ID niggers, push harder, or g
get another man to help you" Without
saying word, General Grant pulled up
his sleeves and helped the negroes roll the
barrel on the boat, then be drew his silk
handkerchief from his pocket and wiping
his hands, moved quickly away. You may
imagine how tins Second Lieutenant felt
when he was told that the steyedore was no
less than the Commander-in-C Chief of the
United States armies. The General was
dressed in coarse homespun, with his hat
drawn over his eyes, and one OF the most
unpretendng looking personages one could
imagine.

Letter from the army Of the Potomac
dated yesterday says all is quiet except the
usual picket firing in front Of the 9th Corps
The firing on our right on Thursday and
Friday, was occasioned by a movement OF
our troops from one position to another,
which the enemy evidently did not under
stand and. perhaps, was fearful that it
meant another advance on their right
at Realms Station. Our tota. loss
in the fight Of Thursday did
not exceed two thousand while that Of the
enemy is supposed to be about five thousand
We still hold about four miles on the Wei
don railroad
De,erter, who come in yesterday say that
Hills corps with two divisions Of Long
streets and the JEFF Davis Legion were the
rebel troops engaged on Thursday. They
also state that since the Weldon railroad fell
into our poss, s>ion, pork has advanced to
SIX dollars and beef to eight dollars in Rich
m0nd and their officers declare the road must
be re-takcn.
