ED. HERALD My name was an
nounced in the Herald Of last week
by some kind friends to me un-
known, as a candidate for Represan-
tative. This was done without my
knowledge or consent. Ihaye ever
believed in the right of the people
to select those whom they desire
for public trusts, and also believe 1t
to be the duty Of a citizen, when his
services are demanded in places OF
trust and honor, to yield his private
wishes to the paramount public de-
mand. Acting upon this principle,
l accepted the nomination two years
ago, to the great sacrifice Of my
own private business, and served
my term in the General Assembly
to the best of my abilities. l now
desire to retire from public life, and
again assume the position of pri-
vate citizen.
l sincerely hope my fellow-citi-
zens will release me from further
public duties, and nominate some
one of the gentleman whose names
are already before the people for
that honorable position.

MR. EDlToR:-In the oIden and better
times of the Republic, offices were filled,
not by those who hungered after them, nor
,as matter Of sympathy, or mere personal
favoritlsm, but the people sought out for
their interests, the best men for the respec-
tive places, and commanded their services.
ltseems to US that the contrary and mod.
,ern practice has shown the necessity Of
return to the primitive rule.
There is, perhaps, no one county office,
the Intelligent and skilful discharge of the
duties of which is Of so much and 80 gen
eral Importance to the public as that of
Auditor. Its duties, heretofore difficult,
TO be understood, have beer greatly in
creased and complicated by the road enter
prize 50 generally inaugurated in this
county. The eminently capable man for
this, as well as all other offices of the like
kind, is not made BY study, but born with
the elements Of mind which peculiarly fit
him for the place. Many intelligent, even
talented men, might remain in that Office
until they were as old as Methusaleh, and
never be qualified Confusion of mind, a
want Of clear, quick apprehension Of what
is to be done and how TO do it. in that Of
tee, is OfinealeuIabIe injury to theinterests
Of the people Of the county. OF this we
think the people Of the county are een.
vinced. We want man Especially il the
present pressure upon that Office) who 10
not only capable, but ready and accurate.
Such an one (andas such generally known
we have in JANIS P, ROBINSON An &C.
countant by nature, perfectly familiar with
every duty connected with the office, quick
and afable, we are confident that, however
worthy others may be, no comparison can
be justly instituted between his qualiLca-
tions and those Of any other person named
in connection with that Office Mr. R. was
not only long connected with that office
before he was made Auditor, some years
since. but during the term of the present
incumbent he has been, most of the time,
really theaeting Auditor With qualifiea
tio7s superior to any man in the county,
Mr.. Robinson combines the recommenda-
tion Of having been an active, efficient,
uniform and consistent member of the IN
ion organization.
We submit his name as candidate for
the office of County Auditor. subject to
the decision at the primary election.
