DEATH or a. J. SiouLE. We learn
Fl ON private dispatches of the death of
Andrew j. Soulc, Esq. which sad event
occurred at his residence in Fairfax ON
Friday, Dee. p, 1868, at about midnight.
At the time of his death, Mr.. ~oulc was
ahout IS years of age. He was born in
the town where he died i'm that part of
it known as "thc plain Ills father
was Isaac n. Soulc, Esq, who was Il
leading and prominent man, in his gem
Grafton. in Fairfex. Andrew J. was n
half brother of Hon. Arson Soulc, of
Fairfax, by his second wife. Thirty
years ago and for many years previous,
his father was the proprietor of n first
lass hotel, on "the plain which he
personally attended to. This house, n
beautiful structure was destroyed ny fire
about 20 years since.
Mr.. A. j. Soule, commenced life NJ L
clerk in a country store, for Mr.. James
Nichols at Westf,rd, VT. Upon attain
ing his majority, he established himself
IN the same business at Fairfax Village
which pursuit he followed through great
vicisSitudes to near the close of his life.
~ merchant, he did not amass for
une, but perhaps, was no more unfor-
innate than a majority ofhiS 60 leagues
lie will be remembered as good sales
nan and an cXccll mt collector.
Pre- badly no MN in Franklin Com
" has held the Executive O lice of Con-
stable and Sheriffin asubordinatc cara
city, for greater term ofyears than has
Mr.. Soulc. He wls smart, active and
discreet, and was peculiarly qualified
ny nature andc ucation for this branch
of his country's service, and as detcc-
i've waa signally successful. His last
public duties were performed in the
capacity of High Sher # of Franklin
County which terms of Office he held
or the two years Just closed. Mr.Soulc's
mtition was far reaching, and vas
much greater than his strength was able
70 endure. The disease from which he
lied was consumption, yet it cannot be
considered in his case, hereditary, but
i the result Of excessive mental labor,
exposure and hardship s.
Mr.. Soule's first wife was a daughter
If j. r. 1Ialbert, Esq, of Fairfax, who
preceded him to the grave number OF
ears since. Fer many years he has
)een member of Lamollc Lodge of
Iasons at Fairfax, and in social life
vas a capital fellow. His friends in st.
\lbans had been aware while he re-
ided among us, that his disease was
making rapid progress, and that he
could not endure many months more
let when he removed from s.. Adams
o Fairfax, the first week of the present
month, he was full of hope, and de-
gned when he should improve, TO re.
move 10 the West Indies for his per-
name 1t good. But alas the fell dcs
roger was too close upon his tract, ant
IL has fallen, and many there are who
Will lam mt his death.

WHAT IS A CARPET BAeeER +,

Although this section of the State has never
been overrun with carpet-bag politicians, our
readers familiar with their customs and habits.
and will doubtless appreciate the following picture
from the Planters Banner, published in Louisiana:
Before the devil in his malignity ever invented
carpet-bagger, he first invented snakes, feas,
scorpions, tarantulas, centipedes, mosquitoes,
gnats hyenas, owls, buzzards, hawks vultures, Al
ligators, stingarees, gars sharks, chigres, and
vampires and to concentrate all the meanness
and deviry in creation, he puts these in Q caul-
dron and boiled them down and produced, carpet
bagger, as the grand masterpiece of Satanic hate
And Satan smiled when his eyes first rested on his
last born and fayorite bantling.

TIE LATE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

We publish the proceedings in full of the Con-
vention recently held in Columbia, and direct the
attention of our readers to the first page of to-
days issue for complete information as to the ac-
tion of that body. There were ten Districts rep
resented, several of them by single individual.
The Charleston Mercury and Columbia PhGnir,
representing the two wings Of the Democracy in
this State, have both announced in substance that
the party is now united in policy and sentiment,
although each of these papers take different
view. of the substantial results produced. We are
not disposed 10 utter one word tending to bring
about division in our ranks, and will not there
fore, comment freely on the recent meetingin Co
lumbia. If our friends in Edgc6eld and Charles
ton are satisfied, so are We of the up-country.
They are now pledged 10 sustain the party, and We
trust will work earnestly and persistenty for a
Democratic success in the Presidential contest
not merely resolve, but put into practical execu-
ton saeh measures as will show forcble, actual
resistance at the ballot-box against Radicalism.
Let us fight the Radicals, and keep peace among
ourselves.
