When James Irvine DUNCAN was ap-
pointed on the Festival committee, and
as q member of said committee hung up
the picture of Vallandigham in the
Court Room, the loyal people Of the
town objected, and some demanded
that the picture be taken down. Among
those who objected. was Judge Longbon.
Quite recently Judge Longbon ap-
pointed this man DUNCAN to the impor-
tant and responsible Office of School
Examiner of Jackson county ,fdf the term
of two years.
Now it it was no immortality to hang
up that picture, nothing should have
been said about it; if it was an immor-
ality, then, in the name of the loyal men
of Jackson county, who elected Mr.
Longbon to the office of Probate Judge,
we demand that he remove DUNCAN, and
appoint loyal man in his place. Let
us. be done with this straining at gnats
and swallowing camels. d.
For the power to remove, we refer the
Judge to the act of March l8, 1864,
6lSt Volume Statutes, Page 34,. Section
Al, as amended by Section 6.

WITTY.

The talented nephew of his notorious
uncle, who reports for the Herald, at
tempted last week to be witty over the
Union convention. As usual, he had
much to say about "Mackley." Well,
we have been the target of the squirt
guns of all the boobies and blatherskites
Of both parties, and yet we survive.
This young genius, when he came
here, was too radical to make speeches
for the radical party. He gave as a
reason for his extreme Tadicalism, that
the rebels had tried to hang him,
and exhibited the marks of the rope
upon his neck. He never told what they
were going to hang him for. Nasty
might tell. lie told what Elder Gavitt
lett North Carolina for.

We are sorry to see any one disap-
pointed Being naturally Of benevo-
lent and kind disposition, it is painful
to Us to see any one in distress. But
we cannot always prevent it.
On last Saturday our Democratic
brethren attended the Union convention
at the Court Room in force, expecting
TO witness general cat fight and break
ing up of the party. The special re-
porter of the Herald-tbe unhung rad
ical-was there, with head up and nose
horizontal, ready for hefty report for
his rebel master, But they were so
sadly disappointed, Not an unkind
word said Lots Of men from all parts
of the county, and a full attendance
from town, and no quarreling-not an
unkind insinuation thrown out. Ex-
pceting anything that "Mackley" might
advocate to be voted down, they had
the modification to sec our plan, for I
delegate convention, passed through
unanimously - heartily, without ont
dissenting voice in the room.
Let us give our dear brethren hint
expect no dissentions in our party thi,
fall. We may differ and even quarre
among ourselves when there is nothing
at stake but the aspirations of ofllc
seekers but when there. is the grea
principle at issue, of secession VS.. pa
,riotism, you ueed expect no falterinl
in our ranks. Make up your minds 70

AN OLD PAPER.

Mrs. G. NJ MARTIN of our town has
sent us copy of the Ulster County Ga
sette, published at Kingston, Ulster
County, New York, dated January A,
1900. 1t is four column paper, using
the old style of type. ItcontainS much
in reference to the death of General
Washington, which occurred December
IA, 1893, twenty days before the date OF
the paper, and which news appears to
have just been received. The rules are
turned, making the lines more than a
quarter of an inch wide.
The latest news from London is up TO
October go, 1909, being two and halt
months old. There is news of the
French army of the Rhine defeating the
Austrians, October 9Th. The French
lost 1000 men, and the Austrians 5000.
1t appears that at the recent meeting
of Congress, President John Adams
delivered his message verbally, which
is given, and occupies about one col
umn.
The advertisements are a curiosity.
John Shoemaker jr, of Rochester, N.
Y, offers for sale saw mill and with
it "a stout, healthy, active negro
wench" Matys Van Steinbergh gives
a second notice for no person to trust
his wife Hannah. Several parties ad-
vertise stray steers, &c.
We find no market report, to indicate
what were the prices of goods and pro-
duce. When money is spoken of, it is
reckoned in pounds, shilings and pence.

CIeEEgDS.

We are exchanging with a paper in N.
York City, called "The Church Union. 4"
In the last number we find a communi-
cation, in which occurs the following:
To umup. If a creed contains more than the
Bible, IL evidently contains too much; if it con.
tains hSs than the Bible. it evidently contains tOo
little; and II II contains any thing different from
the Bible, 1t just as evidently cOnt,ins what Is
wrong, Hence the Bibie, the wh0le Bible. and
noihs"g bW tile Bible, should form the creed Of h
Ch,ishdRs.
We have heard that argument fire.
quently 1t occurs to US that those who
hold to this opinion, or creed, do not act
consistently instance, if the writer
Of that communication says anything
more than is in the Bible, he evidently
says too much, &c. WenOtice that those
who are so opposed to Creeds, have theil
books, newspapers, preachers, dc
Now all these should be abolished, un-
der the above ruling.
What is a preacher good for, if the
Bible, and that alone is all that is neededl
Place the Bible alone in the hands of ev-
cry person, and let him form his own
opinions, But here the trouble com
mences. One will believe in infant bap.
tism, one will oppose it; one will believe
in immersion, another in sprinkling, and
these several beliefs are creeds, whether
written ortradilionary But now come,
along sect, and its preacher SAYS
Take the Bible alone; IL says that i'm,
mer6iO@ is the only baptism. All other
opinions are the inventions of men
crceds." Dear brother, who gave non
the right to tell me what the Bible meansi
Have not just as much right to tell you
what it means2 This talk about creed,
is all bOsh. We must all have our
creeds, or give up the right Of private
Judgment.
