The Barbecue, Thursday.

This week will witness an impetus
given to the cause cf Agriculture in this
County, that it is to be hoped is being
thoroughly appreciated by our citizens
1t is unnecessary to say that we refer tt
the Agricultural Barbecue that is to take
place at the Shriner Place on Mays
Branch, Thursday the 1st. No pains
have been spared to make this affair o
success. Professional and Mercantile
men as, well as the Farmers themselves,
have contributed their time and talents
to ensure the triumph Of an undertaking
that has for its object the success of the
Society, whose aim it is to enrich all
classes of our people. Let every one
attend who can, aud we can promise them
that the expectations created by the Re.
port Of the Committee Of Arrangements
and the Programme will not be disap
pointed

Wont Register.

We often hear OH the streets, that there
will be no registration, because the Reg
istrars appointed by the Governor will
refuse to qualify. In the first place, we
would believe the Millennium had come if
Radicals should refuse to hold offices
They are ra,her rather slow of foot when
pursued by commission, especially
where there is little work and very good
pay. In the second place, nothing could
be accomplished by this course Itwould
be much like cutting off the nose TO spite
the face. Even If no registration is had,
We imagine the people cannot be cheated
out Of the election. They can vote any
how, ifqualiiied. Their qualification does
not depend on the certificate of registra
tion. The certificate is simply an Ell
deace Of qualification, but is no part OF
the qualification. Any other view of it,
would give three men in each county, the
power of sitting the voice of the people
Of the county. They could refuse to
qualify, and not make known their inten-
ton, until it would be too late to supply
their places. This would be wide de
parturc from the theory of our Govern
ment. Registration is humbug anyhow,
and useless and expensive part of the
machinery of elections. 1t is an cncum-
brance, and il we have an election with
out its aid, it may result in its being
abolished at an early day. 1t is mon
strous imposition upon the taxpayers,
to give six dollars per day to three men
in each county, merely for the purpose
OF having them do the work that could
be as well done by the judges ofthe cleo,
tion. This is another characteristic in.
prorement, on the old system, made by
the great Republican party. Let the peo-
pie rest perfectly easy about the registra-
tion. This report is gotten up solely
for the purpose Of deceiving, and of pre-.
venting the people, If possible, from 60
ing to the designated places for registra-
ton, but even this would do them no
good. 1.-THE registrars qualify and open
the books, go and register; ifthcy refuse
to open books you can vote anyhow, il
qualified.

the people of that County that they will

could have been selected. Gov. Clayton
could not have selecteda more plant and

SToEsY ALL ABoUr-There is not ont

we find the war raging between the two
wings of the Radical party, fiercely. The
meetings in Crawford are but counter
part Of most all the other counties il

The Governor thinks that it is good
sign that the party is alire. We think SC
too, and that it is eating itself up.

BURLINGANE AND BRooKS.-After Mr..
Burlingame's acceptance of the challenge
from Preston S. Brooks in July, 1886, he
printed statement of the affair, which con-
cluded as follows:
Self-respect requires me to say that l can
never again recognize, save to do him kind
ness, if it should be in my power, Preston 5.
Brooks. l hand him over to that public,
North and South, which is ever scornful of
those who boast much and perform little.
And now hereby submit myself to the pub
lie whose convictions l fear l have invaded.
pray them to remember that forgiveness is a
higher quality than justice. cast myself on
der, always loving. Let them not forget
when passing on my conduct the sneers
have seen, the taunts have heard how the
cherished Senator stricken down, and how
he yet fingers in almost helpless illness. As
you, of my own State, remember these things
you will not entirely blame me if in mo-
ment of indignation was willing to stand up
at the hazard Of my life, and what is dearer
than life, the insulted honor of those who
have always been kind to me. am no duel
list. l seek no mans life. have but acted
in the spirit of the speech l made when l
said that, if pushed too long and too far,
there were men from the Old Bay State who
would defend her honor and the freedom of
speech in whatever field they might be as
saulted. My course became to me defense
of liberty against slavery, struggle for free
dom of speech against freedom of the blud-
geon, and the only way that seemed to be left
was that by which We could defend ourselves.
