CORRESPONDENCE.
Wanted-A Democratic Candidate,

Mr.. EDITOR Il am surprised that some
of our Democratic papers advocate the cleo
ton of Horace Greeley for President. Has
the proud old party that such men as Jeffer-
son, Madison Jackson and Clay honorcd with
their giant support come to this? Are we
to abjure our political faith and vote for q
man who has always been our bitterest en-
envy, for the purpose of defeating Grant and
his corrupt faction? If SO, what would we
gain by so doing? five admit for mo-
ment that by joining the disaffected Repub-
Means we would secure the election of Greeley,
what would the country gain by the trans
action? We would still have one of our bit
terest enemies for President, and he would
select his officers from the greedy Republicans
that are now outside ofthe gold bearing rings
mot being Grants relations) and the Demo
Gratis might have the balance to pay them for
abjuring their political faith and supporting
their enemy. The Cincinnati Convention
made great mistake when they nominated
Greeley, if they thereby expected to obtain
the Democratic vote; for there are tens of
thousands of the good old party, that will not
vote for their malicious enemy, farm he nev-
er so wisely" We can boast of three mil
lion of Democratic voters in the United States
which we might at least consider respecta-
BILE minority.
Then let us have candidate of our own
one whom we can all support, and let US en-
ter the lists as true knights and fight our ene-
mics with a will. Let our battle.cry be
MAY God defend the right" and then if we
are overcome we will have the proud salts
faction to know that though defeated we are
not conquered; and we will still have pre-
served the status of our good old party, that
has been contending tor our constitutional
rights for the last seventy years
We have everything to lose and nothing
to gain by supporting Greeley, for if he
should be elected, if we judge him by his pre-
cedents, our party and the country would be
prosecuted with The same vicious malignity
as it has been, under the corrupt administra-
ton of Grant 81 Co. hope that the Nation
al Democratic Convention that is to assem-
BILE in Baltimore will act with wisdom and
calm determination for the welfare of the
nation depends in great measure on their
action and l further hope that they will
nominate good and true Democrat for Pres.
ident-one to whom our party can give their
undivided support. If they do this, we will
teach Grant, Greeley and the niggers lesson
that they will not soon forget. In conclu-
sion, permit me to say that 1 won't vote for
Grant, Greeley or Fred. Douglas; but if a
Democrat is nominated, l will vote for him.

The Strawberry Festival at Rock Spring

I must tell you, Mr.. Editor, if you don't
know it already, what a nice time we had
at the Rock Spring Festival the other day
/ was getting there all the morning, and after
all did not get there till midday. This might
be because had to carry up n gigantic iced
cate, which good lady had had made and
presented to the festival. So when we did
arrive, it was to meet festive scene-an ar
ray of youth and beauty swarming in the
grounds, with their gay colors flashing in and
out of sunshine and shade, under the grand
old trees. The day twas as my fancy paint
ed it" in my fondest anticpations and bet
ter than any committee of five could have fix
ed upon, if they had had the ordering of it !;
warm enough and not too warm; with a
steady but gentle breeze drawing through be-
tween the branches and the grass. Sweet
young children, without whose presence no
such scene is perfect, were running about in
delightful abandon, and some very young,
lying in the deep shade sleeping, the bloom of
their checks suggesting the blush of opening
flowers, and their innocent breathing as balmy
as the fragrance of the rose.
For myself ran about as busy as the
busy bee that Sips" &C., &C.; charmed to see
all joyous and happy, and to witness and par
ticipate in the perfect social harmony which
prevailed enjoying the reunion heartily,
and making some new acquaintance.
hear that the Festival was a success in
another respect, namely, in the substantial
returns for the church improvements which
the ladies had in view. Whenever the good
ladies of the parish give another Festival " |
don't care if do" go there

For the Aggis d Mtelligencer.
GREAT RACES
ON THE NATIONAL COURSE.

FREE For ALL AGES. FoUR-MLE HEATS.
The judges came and took their place,
Then came the horses for the race.
First there came upon the track
A broken-wnded, mongrel hack.
This mongrel horse of doubtful breed
Has neither bottom, blood nor speed
They trained him once around the course
And christeued him the Peoples Horse.
This horse was weak for this great race,
Though groomed and trained by Justice
Chase.
They next brought in upon the course
A famous Northern woolly horse.
This famous horse from New York State,
Had on his back heavy weight;
He had John Brown and Captain Cook,
And isms enough to fill book.
Some thought he carried too much weight,
And others thought it was good freight.
His sanguine friends, both near and f&
Quite freely staked on Cbappaqua.
Next came the offspring OF a cross
From female Jack, by woolly horse.
They led him out around the ring;
He is a long-eared, bobtail thing
Four years ago this long-eared horse
Won the race on this same course.
Again be comes up to the scratch,
This time, no doubt, to meet his match.
A match i'll speed and bottom too,
Will soon be brought within his view.
They next brought in fine old steed,
A blooded horse of jackson breed.
This horse was sound in all his points;
In wind and limb as we'll as Joints.
They led him out upon the track
And placed States Rights upon his back.
When old Jackson came in view
All other horses then withdrew,
Except the Jack and Woolly Horse
They did remain upon the course,
All three in line, prepared to rum
The judge now taps the signal drum.
FIRST HEAT.
They all now started with good speed
The Woolly Horse was in the lead,
Close upon the Roollys track,
With fearful leaps came long-eared Jack.
Behind the Jack, but keeping time,
Old Jackson followed in the line
This position they all maintained;
The first three miles neither gained.
When passing by the third mile post
The Woolly Horse gave up the ghost.
The other two, with flying feet
Were still contending for the heat;
This heat was soon brought to close,
Long-ears beat by length of nose.
SECOND HEAT.
Away they 60 and as before
Long=ears leads length or more.
Both horses now were doing well,
But blood and bottom always toll.
Old Jackson now closed up the gap
And soon the long-eared horse did lap.
The whip and spur were now applied
To poor old Long-ears' reeking hide.
But all in vain, old Jackson's strength
Beat the Long.ears by a length.
THIRD HEAT.
Again they start with lightning speed,
Old Jackson now is in the lead,
The way lie made the gravel fly
Brought tears in poor old Long-ears' eye,
Whose rider row applied the lash
And at old Jackson made dash,
But all his efforts were in vain;
Old jackson now had loosed HIS rein.
With flowing name and movements grand,
Like hurricane he passed the stand,
He neither turned to left or right
Until the White House came in sight,
He then turned in the eastern door,
Where he will rest four years or more.

THE CRoPs-The late refreshing sho wers
have had marked good effect upon the grow
ing crops. In the lower portions ofthe coun-
ty the prospect for wheat is in the main more
favorable than in the upper sections, where
many farmers have plowed up the wheat
fields seeded last fall and planted them in
corn. Under the most favorable circumstan-
ces not u third of a crop of this important
cereal can be realized, though the quality bids
fair to be good.
Oats and grass especially show the benefi--
cial effects of the rains, and while the former
may prove remunerative, the latter neverthe-
less will be very short.
The destruction to corn by the cut worms,
this season, has been unprecedented but I'M
der the influence of the present warm wealth
er this pest will be obliged to suspend opera
tons. Altogether, the prospect for our far
mers is anything but encouraging, and the
old cry of "hard times" will this year have a

DIR. LIVINGSTON SAFE AGAIN.-An anx-
ious world will breathe more freely, we sup
pose, upon hearing that DR.. Livingston, the
great African traveller, has again been heard
from. We sincerely hope an expedition will
be organized and the cratic Doctor captured;
he certainly has too great a faculty for losing
himself to be allowed to roam any longer
in the wilds of Africa. If no one else will
undertake the job. in behalf of a much abus-
ed world, perhaps Barnum would secure him.
He would prove quite as attractive as the
Fiji cannibals.
