fanchised, who was not used to the wiles Of the
world, accosted gentleman in the street yesterday
with the modest request that he would buy bis
ticket. Some surprise being expressed at this
novel demand, he was requested to explain, and
thus unbosomed himself "You see, boss, stays
on John Island, an man GIN me too ticket an tell
me to put one in de box, an to sell de oder in
Charleston. Ise bin all ober de place, and dey all
has dere own tickets, an I'll sell dis now for Loaf

the eyes of the wandering voter but he was politely
informed that his ticket was not saleable in that
quarter. Cuffee opened his eyes, gave despon-
ding grunt, and went on his weary way hunting
bid for his ticket. .....
The Keowee Courier, of the 10th instant,
publishes petition from portion Of the citizens
of Pickens District to the State Convention, should
it be held, asking for division of the territory OF
Pickens District into two Judicial Districts. The
petitioners ask for the division on the following
considerations: lst, Its extensive area, and the
great inconvenience thereby caused to those living
af the extremides in reaching the present Court
House, being compelled to travel, in many instan-
ces, over broken and hiy country thirty or forty
miles, in order to do So 2nd Its large population,
composed of at least 10000 inhabitants, for the
transaction of whose proportionate judicial busl-
ness the present consolidated arrangement IS BE-
lieved to be inadequate. 1t is thought that the
division proposed will greatly promote the conven-
ience, prosperity and happiness of the people.

THE METROPOLITAN RECORD.

We desire to call the attention Of our readers TO
this sturdy champion of Southern rights publish
ed on Northern soil. No paper in the North has
so consistently resisted the attacks of our enemies
either during or since the war. At one time, the
paper was suppressed and its editor imprisoned,
for the so-called disloyalty of opposing the wal
which has resulted in the disorganization OF ten
Stats, and their spbjection to military empires
When the struggle closed, the Record was among
the first to advocate the immediate restoration OF
the seeded States, on terms Of justice and equall'
ty. And though the prejudices excited by the wal
hurried the North and its press into rash ap:
proval of the expressions of Congress- the Record
never failed to oppose them in eloquent and manly
terms. 90, E .i..'.-g .'".. 80
Of late the columns of the Record have been
prolific in roosters, cannon, &C., in honor OF the
victories of the Democracy; and we trust these
emblems of victory may continue to adon 1t

Southern men can give more hearty support
than the Record, published in New York, by JOHN

wanted to vote. But on being asked for his ticket
