at the capitol at onoe loft for their
homes, greatly disappointed. but.
We are unable to state the reason
Why it vas thought best not to stop
here, presuming, however, it was TO-
some good and sufficient cause. In
common with al our citizens, however,
We can only regret that we were depriv-
ed Of tho privilege Of extending the
hospitality Of the city to the brave men
Of the Third as We have to all the 9TH

or rcturniuy regiments. Ample prep
arationa for the ovation had been made.
The tables had been spread with an
abundance of choicest food, full enough
for 600 men, although the regiment
only numbers 1873. The 6remen were
preparing a grand torch-hght process
sion as an escort, and music, &C., had
ALL been prepared. We mention these
things, not merely to show the disap-
pointments caused among our citizens
at the failure in entertaining the men
Of the Third, but to show. the latter
that we were ready and anxious to do
honor to them in liberal manner.

UNION DISTRICT TICKET.

Ii our issue Of last week, VIC brought
before our readers the nominations of
the County officers by the Stearus coun-
ty Union Convention and as our time
and space was somewhat limited, after
mentioning them severalIy and person.
ally, we were unable to call the attcn-
ton Of our readers and the electors of
the District generally; to the very ex-
cellent nominations made by the Dis
trict Convention, further than our no.
ticc Of Capt. J. NJ. McKelvy, the NOM
inee for Senator. -.
Re-afirming what We then said Of
the gallant Captain, we will add that it
is our firm belief, that our District
could never be better represented than
it would be were he elected to the Sem
ate. Capt. Mex. is an excellent schol-
ar, thoroughbred lawyer, possessing
as he does, keen perceptions and natur~
al abilities aside from his professional
requirements, which at once renders
him capable Of fulfilling with credit and
honor the position for which he is NOM
mated. We sincerely hope that the
District will do herself the honor of
sending him to the Senate this winter.
The nominations for Representatives
will be hailed with satisfaction by all
concerned in having our District rep
resented by men Of upright character
and sterling merit. Messrs. Bruce,
Richardson and Carey, are all men who
if elected, will work for the interest Of
their constituents regardless of the in
fluence Of certain railroad sharpers aid
ed and backed as such sharpers ever
are.
The time has come when the people
of this District must look to their best
interests in selecting men for our legis-
lative halls, or otherwise, they must
contend themselves with being made
the dupes and servile tools of aspiring
demagogues, who under the plea Of
some old, worn out, and despicable 70
litical dogma, boot and spur themselves
at every election and ride IN to .power,
for the sole purpose of bene6ting them
selves and entirely forgetting and ig-
noring their dearly beloved friends
who placed them there.
Such, with some honorable cxcep-
tons, has been the course pursued to-
wards the people in this District for
number Of years back, and now that
the people are fully aroused to the fact.
we hope they will for once consult their
own interests and elect for our next
Representatives, Messrs. s. NJ. Bruce,
N. Richardson and J. r. Carey.
Our railroad interests demand great
care in the selection Of good and relia-
bic men, and if the people will not give
the subject the proper attention, they
deserve to be treated in the future os
they have been in the past. A word
to the wise is sufhcient!!

only saved by the most extraordinary ex-

loss is upwards Of two hundred bushels of
