County Judges.
To the Editors Of the Dispatch:

To the Editors OF the dispatch:
In your paper of Thursday the Oath ul-
timo your correspondent "Louisa - says
ga writer in the Wing argues that the
county Judge should be more learned than
the circuit Judge. This is fallacy." ]
entirely agree with Louisa " that such an
argument would be fallacy; but if he
will take up the Wing again and carefully
read, mark, and inwardly digest" the
article referred to, think he will conclude
there was no such argument. 1t was sim
ply stated, in substance, that if the fact of
having practiced law FIVE years was to be
the only requirement of circuit judge, 1t
would seem that less was required of him
than of the county judge, toho mast be
learned in the lao of the State-which, of
course, was not intended. also agree
with i" Louisa" that ga little knowledge is
dangerous thing"; and l wonder, there
fore, that he seems so profoundly ignorant
of his own situation. With all Difference,
was there ever anything more absurd than
his positive assertion that the only safety
of republican government is in small
salaries? 49,
On the contrary, no government was ever
upheld or strengthened by any such mig
gardly" policy. True economy is to have
the best and most competent men in places
of trust, and to pay them full and fair
equivalent for their services. What is
worth doing at all is worth doing well,
and should be paid we'll for. If this
be 80, let us have all Offices, from the low
est to the highest in the country, filled by
men most competent to perform the duties
of the offices to which they may be appoin-
ted, and let them be paid what their SER
vices ore reasonably worth. With regard
to the salary of county judges, personally
I can say very little as to the amount at
which it may be fixed !; but as it is an effort
to make the county court more efficient
than heretofore, would it not be wise at
least to give it fair trial, even should it
be necessary to make the salary such as
would induce competent persons to take the
office9 "Louisa says if you put the
salary very low no lawyer will take 1t, ana
if you pay q good salary "pettifoggers"
will be running after it. Well, let them
run. The Legislature has given unmis-
taxable evidence that they intend to ap-
point no such persons as Louisa " refers
TO to these Offices and as ! believe there
are many gentlemen in almost every county

The REALITIES OF A BATTLE.-The sights
and sounds Of battle are well-nigh indie
scribable. Noise, tumult, danger, excite
ment, oil blend together to make scene
which think can have no parallel on the
hither side of the Internal regions. Du-
ring his first battle, perhaps, the novelty
OF the thing may fill the recruit with eenu-
inc enthusiasm, and put fear in the back
ground; but after that he will find the
poetry Of the battlefield somewhat over
done in "Hohenlindeu," and fighting itself
rather prosaic and dangerous butchery.
There is nothing less like pageant, verify
believe, than battle. The arms are not
polished and shiny now, for the dew of last
nights bivouac in the grass has furnished
them; very plain blouses have taken the
place of STRAIGHTFORWARD, corsety coats +;
belts are loosened, or, in the fury of the
fight, are thrown aside altogether shout
r-straps and epaulets are discarded, out
of wholesome regard for the enemy's sharp
shooters and after the fight has progressed
an hour you will find those who are still
fighting dirty, grimy, and lahoriDg to kill
the enemy with about as hard manual labor
as your wood saver employs on your wood.

How BATTLES ARE FoueHT.-How ia a
battle fonght3 With tremendous volleys,
the ranks standing firm and steady "a on
dress parade-with enthusiasm, with deaf
ening cheers, with music; and finished by a
glorious bayonet charged Nothing of the
kind. Here are simply some thousands Of
men on either side who have been marched
out this pleasant day to butcher each other.
Modern firearms are terribly effective wea-
pons; a good Springfield musket will kill ct
q thousand yards and by the time you have
drawn these opposing forces to within two
hundred yards. of each other, or about the
distance across q goodsized wheat-feld,
the battle is resolved into simple
problem-which army can stand the most
killing and wounding without breaking up 7
When that question is answered, you can
tell which side will be victorious. The
business of the officers is to hold the men
to the work--to compel them to losd and
fire until 30 many Of the enemy are put
hors du combat that he is forced to with
draw. Take your regiment into battle az
orderly as you may, before it has been
under fire half an hour it will become re-
solved into knotsand groups from the draw
ing together to fill the places of those
stricken down, and the survivors will be
lying or kneeling, forced down by the ire.

BEES BENEFICIAL TO FRUlT.-Dr. A
Packard replies to query in regard to the
effects produced upon fruit by the agency
OF honey bees that all the evidence given BY
botanists and biologists who have especially
studied the subject shows that bees i'm
prove the quality and tend to increase the
quantity of fruit. They aid in the ferti,
lizu,ion Of flowers, thus preventing the &C.
currence of sterile flowers, and, by more
thoroughly fertilizing flowers already per.
feet render the production OF sound and
well-deyeloped fruit more sure. Many
botanists think if it were not for bees and
other insects many plants would not bear
fruit ut all.

Bradshaw, and two companions, were out
hunting, and while climbing over fence
at Fishing creek, near the city, the gun of
young Bradshaw was discharged by the
hammer striking the fence, and the load
took effect in his neck, producing mortal
wound. Two faithful dogs that were with
him staid by the body, and would not allow
any one to approach it until they were
driven away with clubs. One person in
attempting TO do so was bitten twice.
