COMMISSIONS FOR OFFICERS ELECT.-We
learn that Gen Clitz has received from Char
lesion, and is distributing the commissions to
the various officers elected under the new Con-
stitution of this State. The commissions have
been sent to the post-ofices of the State officers
and members of the Legislature elect, so far as
their post offices could be obtained; and we learn
the commissions of the County officers will be
sent to the Sheriffs elect Of the various Counties
for ribution.-Roleiyh Standard
Gen Candy has sent, along with the Commissions,
copy Of the test oath to be taken by each officer,
and also extracts from the Reconstruction Acts, for
the purpose, presume, Of showing his authority
for requiring the iron clad oath The extracts cited
by Gen. Candy only apply to provisional officers, or
officers acting under military authority, and cannot
operate in the of elected under the

that Gen. Candy has made such bungling mistake,
does not to understand the meaning of the
laws under which he acts. If the test oath is
quired, quorum of the Legislature cannot assemble,

The Republican Platform.

We intend to try to keep readers well and cor
rectly informed as to passing events political or
otherwise, and therefore publish the platform adopted
by the Republican party in National Convention at
Chicago. The only remark we have to make at pre-
sent about this declaration of principles is that the
second resolution is unbecoming any party or set of
men protesting to be governed by principle 1t de-
elares that the Government must maintain negro
suffrage in the South, but at the North the question
must be left for the people of the States to settle to
suit themselves. If the National Republican party
really believe that negro suffrage is right why did
they not proclaim that it ought TO be established
everywhere and not undertake to force it only on
conquered people? They know that the Northern
white people will never consent to grant universal
negro suffrage nor submit to having it forced upon
them. We are true friend to the colored mar
as any Northern man be, and since negro suf-
fragc has been forced here ct the South we are for
forcing it the Northern States that the North
ern people may have portion of what their Repre-
sentatives consider good thing. That's fair and
equitable

Gen. Grants Speech.

When the news of Gen. Grants nomination reached
Washington, he was serenaded by friends, and made
the following speech:
"Gentlemen, being unaccustomed to public speak
ing, and without any desire to cultivate that power,
laughter it is impossible for to find appropriate
language to thank you for this demonstration. All
that can say is that to whatever position may be
called by your WILL shall endeavor to discharge it's
duties with fidelity and honesty of purpose OF my
rectitude in the performance Of public duties, you
will have to judge for yourselves by my record be-
fore YOU
And this is about all that Mr. Grant will say during
the campaign, unless he speaks something i'll regard
to horses and cigars. He is ''one-horse' man.

Public Opinion.

1t is too much the practice with large portion of
mankind to form their nd5Uluat opinions in
dance with what appears to be public opinion. Some
men neglect to do what they believe their duty,
simply because they afraid of public opinion.
When public opinion is formed upon given subject,
the only question open for discussion with some peo-
pie is as to which way the storm shall sweep! But
more important question still would have been,
whether upon the whole it were better to raise the
storm at all? 1t seems them that this is the first
question for public journalist ''Is it wisdom, in
view of all its issues to agitate the public mind with
this or that subject.
We are thankful that we have sort of talent for
''pching in upon any and every subject; for the
phrase too often sinking and drowning great
deal that ought and might have been preserved.
And these, especially, not the times for reckless
journalism. \ great deal of the anger, bad passion
and feeling that rules the present hour, has been
caused by that portion of the press North and South
which rccklcssy abuses those who choose to hold
contrary opinions. drop of honey will catch more

Lespedeza, or japan Clover.

Every observing person must have noticed
the small, cloyer-like plant, which, for the last
eight or ten years, has been rapidly extending
itself over nearly the whole Southern country,
clothing our road-sides and alleys with its beau
tiful carpet of green. 1t should be regarded as
a welcome visitor everywhere, not only for re-
moving the sterile and unforbidding aspect of
our oldfelds and uncultivated surfaces, but for
its nutritive and renovating properties. 1t be-
longs to the leguminous, or podbearing plants,
and is closely allied in its botanical anities with
clover the pea, bean, lueerne, &c. The generic
name Lespedeza was given to it by Michaux, a
distinguished French botanst about the begin
ming of the present century, in honor of his
friend Lespedez, Governor of Florida. There
are several other species in the United States,
but claim no particular importance. The species
under consideration is a tender, nutritious plant
making its appearance in May, and is greatly
relished by ali kind of stock. 1t seems to be
performing the blessed work of Graduating the
unsightly broom-straw from our uncultivated
land gradually improving it's fertility, affording
much nutriment to animals, shielding the soil
from the searching rays of the sun, and covering
its surface with attractive herbaceous verdure.
species which Thunberg found, many years ago,
in Japan, but how and when it found it's way to
this country is not certainly known, but is sup
posed to have been introduced by some trading
vessel into one of our Southern ports. Be this
as it may, it is valuable boon sent by kind
Providence to minister to our wants, and assist
in building up the shattered fortunes and i'm
poverished condition of the South G. L. H.
