every description stolen daily from this Vi

Manchester than in Fredericksburg, where
there is supposed to be a regular gang N horse
thieves, who systematically run the animals,
almost nightly stolen, Northward. Our advice
10 those who have horses in either place which
thew do not want stolen is TO keep watch, well
armed. and drop the first thief thatattempts
TO enter their stables. \ repetition a few times
of summary punishment in this way will have

islature, in Boston, two weeks ago.
Consistency always means sinceri-

think a negro as good as a white
man, why not show it by their
works instead of idly proclaiming
it in SO many empty words? But
alasl for the honesty of these

For the Fayetteville Observer.


/ would suggest the necessity
of killing or holing all turnips
owned by your patrons, in order
that they may preserve them from
the frost. This should be done
during this week. If they are in
tended for table use, the buds
should be cut out entirely with a
knife; the tap-root should be cut
close to the turnip. By doing this
they will remain firm and sweet
during the entire winter months.

Political Corruption.

SThe greatest good of the great
est number is an exploded max
i'm in the political lexicon of tn,
present day-'sthe greatest goot
. of Number One" has superseded
lit. In order to understand tt
what depths of degradation some
law-givers can descend, and
through what sinks and sewers of
Iiniquity laws misappropriating the
peoples money, and sacrificing the
public interest to private cupidity,
! find their way into the statute
books, it is necessary to visit Wash
ington while Congress is in session,
or Nashville when the Legislature
is in full blast. Flocks of MERGE
naries, the hirelings of Specula-
ton and Capital, hover all day
about the lobbies, suppling the con-
sciences of members with admira-
BILE skill, and at night the tempted
revel with the tempters on free
will offerings of oysters and cham
payne. The ''open sesame" which
unbars the treasury, and lets in a
host of plunder-mongers to prey
upon the peoples cash, is conned
over in the Hobbies before it is ut
tered in the halls of legislation
Scores of private bills, all aimed
at the same mark, are propelled
through the various stagesof legis-
lation by an outside motive power. |
Appropriations the most extrava-
giant, and utterly disproportioned
to the services, for which they i
purport to be compensation, are
asked for and sanctioned through !
the same potent influence. In
short, it sometimes seems as if the
balance of power, both in the
Federal and State Legislatures,
were vested in the puppets of the
lobbies. Lobby-men do not work
for low wages. Their pay ia libe-
raj, and they live on the fat of the
and. The cost of maintaining
md feeding the army of retainers
during a whole session is very
heavy; and the secret service
with which they are sup
piled to grease the wheels of leg
station, must be a still heavier
item. Taking these things into
we can easily see
that nothing short of the certain
ty of wholesale plumber in case
Of success would justify such an
to achieve it.
Corruption and political scoun-
lrelism, in all its varieties, are ma
kingrapid Roadway in this country.
If we are ambitious of the char
lcter of a truly great people-if
we desire that the acorking, as we'll {
as the principles, of our govern
mental system shall command the 1
respect and admiration of the +,
must commence a pro-
less of publication and reform. {
First, abolish the restrictive fran
,hise law; then make the Jefferso-
lian test supreme in the selection
