The Dispensa,ion of Patronage.

The doctrine that tie victors in ar; impor:
tant political contest are entitled to the
patronage at the disposal of an Administra7.
ton, seems a little odious until we analyze
the principles on which it rests A repre-
sentative government, says the New York
Sun, cannot be carried on by chief magis-
trate and ministry. For this purpose it
must employ multitude of minor agents.
Every Administration should have policy.
In impressing it upon the country, it must
to large extent rely upon subordinates
who accord with it in opinion. Indeed,
there is the same good reason for the cor
dial adoption of this policy by the subordi-
mates, that there is for its proclamation by
the official heads of the Administration.
If the views adopted by the latter in regard
to the cardinal principles and measures Of
the government are right, then they ought
to be held with equal tenacity by the
former. u @i't 1926 'Q5 ~ 1ett
1t is to the last degree impracticable and
absurd to expect that party can be sue
cessful or even kept in existence under
popular system of government, unless its
offices, not the chief and most valuable on
ly, but the inferior and subordinate as well,
are bestowed upon its own members. How
long, for example, could the Democratic
party maintain its organization il only
aimed at electing Presidents and Governors,
and spurned the aspirations of those, who
sought the more humble posts OF Assembly
men and Supervisors2 In fact, those VIII"
struggle to obtain such minor offices as con
stables, justices of the peace, postmasters
and revenue assessors, are the ife-bl0od of a
party, its rank and file, without whose CO.
operation success in Presidential election
would be as impossible as victory in the
field of battle with an army beautifully
supplied with generals, but wholly desti-
tute of corporals and priyates. The oppo-
site doctrine is sometimes promulgated by
transccndental theorists, who may be pr'
found philosophers, but are certainly very
poor politicians. 80
We presume, therefore, that nobody will
he surprised if Gen. Grant should bestow the
great mass of the officesat his disposal upon
{ honest, competent, and patriotic members
of the poical party that elevated him to the
Presidency, and should pay very little at
tention to those who resisted his election.
and sought to defeat and disgrace both him
and his friends.

Public Meeting in Davidson. 81

Public Meeting in Davidson. ~.
At meeting of the, people ut jackson
Hill, Davidson county, N. c., on the 23d of
. February, A. d., 1859, Z. d. ShemweIl, Esq,
was called to the chair, and James Benson
Esq, requested to act as secretary. The
chairman then rose, and delivered short,
though animated and pointed address, in
which he explained the object of the meet
ing, and touched briefly several of the lead
ing politicai topics of the day. iaa q
The following preamble and resolutions
were then offered, by Alexander Bula, and
unanimously adopted by the meeting:
WHEREAS, within the last four years. a
great many enactments, "for the relief of the
people" have been promulgated; and
whereas said enactments, while they favored
the debtor, have invariably injured the
creditor; and whereas, the General Assem-
bly, of this State seem to be at great loss in
regard to the course which they should
pursue, in reference to Old Debts therefore,
lie iG .9iaFt53a RI
1st Resolred, That all stay laws, in adj
dtion tn the Bankrupt Law and the Home
stead Exemption, are superfuous, and in
compatible with reason and common sense.
End. That any thing like an "Act "
forcing compromise on Old Debts for one
fourth of the principal, would he unconsti-
tutional, and supremacy ridiculous.
Sd. That, in our opinion, no earthly
power can justly absolve from his obliga-
tion, the man who justly owes debt,
otherwise than by paying the same.
4th. That extreme leniency towards the
Debtor, has a demoralizing influence, and
causes g Interpretation Of the great princi-
Piles ofjustice. 9
5th. That it is the sense of this meeting,
that the indulgence to Debtors in this
State, has been excessive; that it has en-
couraged and fostered spirit of dishonesty,
which long years will not eradicate; and,
in many instances, left the creditor, who, by
his superior industry and economy, had
made himself able to betriend his fellow
man, poor, and in absolute want of the
necessaries of life. i'Hs
9th. That the General Assembly of this
State he respectfully requested to repeal all
Stay Laws now in force, and take steps, as
speedily as possible, to clothe the various
townships with municipal authority.
7th. That a copy OF the proceeding OF
tins meeting lie transmitted to the Editor Of
the North Carolina STANDARD, with a re-
quest that he cause the same to be pub
lished. ~

ANOTHER SAD VIsITATIoN.-We learn from the

its flight to that unknown land beyond the

full concourse of friends and admirers, his re-
mains were consigned in Calvary Cemetery to

In the death of this mostlexcellent and exem-
plary young man, North Caroliua has lost true
citizen and promising son, while society will
search in vain for another jewel of like worth.

The County Poor Farm.

To the Editors of the Journal !:
About a year ago our honorable
county board of supervisors purchased
Poor Farm and paid for the same 81
coo. 1t was bought, I suppose, for
the purpose Of providing home for the
county poor with view of maintaining
them at less cost than heretofore.
1 observe by the financial exhibit
printed in the JOURNAL last week, that
the pauper expenses of the county for
the year ls6s were Sil75. This shows
a marked decrease from the pauper bills
of last year, which amounted to s2s36.
Is this decrease because the county has
less number of paupers, or Keeps its poor
at less expense, or to the fact that 1t
owns Poor Farm?
A farm costing $4,000 ought to be
self-sustaining, to say the least; but l
observe that Sll9 "a have been expend::
ed for fencing aud carrying on the farm
during the past year. The interest on
$4,000 for ore year, at 10 per cent, is
5000, making the actual expenses OF
the Poor Farm for the year 1859, $780,
"a. What are its receipts? How many
paupers have been kept upon it since its
purchased Hss-it lighteued the burden
of taxation for the support of the county
poor?
The county board has estimated the
"pauper' expenses for the coming year
at 50, $780, Iwould like to know how
much of that amount was intended by
the board for carrying on the Poor Farm
1t seems to me Messrs. Editors that
the Poor Farm bids fair to become the
most expensive pauper we have in the
county, not excepting pauper Robinson,
of Prescott. ~ E.E
The Poor Farm may be good in
vestment. I hope it is. Will some Of
our county officers give US a statement of
it receipts and expenditures and how
many paupers were kept there during
the past year, and oblige at least one

BAD ACCIDENT.-Patrick O'Neil, of

that seems to come to him as natural as
duck goes to the water. Last Monday
he was leading a steer by the rope, when
the animal gave sudden jerk, and land
ed O,Neil head over heels on the frozen
ground, breaking bis collar Zone, putting
his shoulder out of place, and otherwise
injuring him. DR.. johnson attended
him, and reports that he will be laid up
for some time. This is the fourth acc;-
dent that has visited this man. The
first calamity was to be the father of
three children all ct once; the next year
bis house burned down; next he lost bis

drowning himself, and now he is suffer
ing from another accident. We trust
that this may be his last.-Star and
