shall We have u MongreI Ticket!

We call attention 10 timely and suggestive
letter from 81, leading citizen of the
county, which We publish elsewhere this week.
Shall We have Peoples Ticket for next
summer, composed partly Of Republicans and
partly OF Democrats?
For our part, and We don't assume to die
tate to any party, or indeed to speak for any
body but ourselves, We ale unqualihedly
opposed To any such movement. We cheer
fully concrde that there are gentlemen OF the
other party who could I'LL any of the county
Offices With credit to themselves and with sat
isiaction TO the people. But We hope and
believe that the pcmocratlce party also con
tains available and satisfactory material Tor
candidates. II it does there can certainly he
no necessity Tor applying for assistance to our
Radical friends
Have they ever set Us such generous ex'
ample Have they ever shown preference
for even competent Democrat over an igno-
rant and incompetent member Of their own
party! do they not invariably, as IN south
carolina, for instance stick to their candidate
even II he be an illilerate negro and vote
against ours, however Intelligent honest or

Central Kentucky: "rhe young mezzo-soprs 4 o,
Miss Addie Landram, of Lancaster, descended
from musical stock, as her father, Gen. W.
J. Landram, is a musician of no mean order
Of ability. The young lady has been actively
employed in the cultivation Of her vocal abil-
tiles, having studied under some Of the best
teachers in the West, including Signor Alferi,
Of Cincinnati, all Of whom pronounce her to
be mez1o-soprano of unusual excellence.
Her compass runs to L flat in alt and in in
tonation, purity of method, and general es.
TEEN, she has few superors. Her voice i-fnll
clear, resonant and sympathetic in quality
and her general appearance progressing il
an unusual degree. She has appeared in con
cert several times for charitable purposes, anC
always with great success. Her repetoire in
cludes all the standard operate melodies an,
arias of the day, while as a ballad singer sh'
has great success. she has been repeatedly
advised to 60 to Europe to study, but, having

Persons Who live within a mile Or two u
good mills, fail to appreciate the convenience
which was denied our pioneer fathers, who
were compelled to carry their grain twenty
t,,, iity, and even a hundred miles 20 have
IL ground. Such was the case, We believe.
when the old puddcar mill, ON Dix river
four miles East OF stanford was erected
This mill j. one Of the land mark, ~ antiquity,
having been erected nearly century ago, and
for many years was the principal gri-t-mill in
this section Of country. During that time 1t
was known far aud wide as the best mill in
chi. part Of the State, and patroniucd by cit.
lcns Of Pulaski and other adjoining counties,
forty and fifty miles distant. It, repuistion
so we'll earned then has been fully g0stained
since. Daring the past summer 1t became
necessary To r,pair it, and the proprictors
wisely concluded To give it a thorough aud
complete renovation, aud supply il with new
running gear, ETC.; also Ia erect a new dam
which will stand through coming centuries
The dam {. made Of stone, ccm,ntcd To the
top and so constructed that grinding may he
done at any stage Of water. Mr. Thos. White
Of this county, was the master stone mason
aud be- it said to his credit that no more excel
lent piece Of work can be found in the county
The mill now has all the modern and improved
machinery necessary To do all the custom
grinding OF the surrounding country rapidly
and we'll II was started on Tuesday last aud
aud turned out thirty bushels Of meal per
hour. The -four made at this mill has always
found a rcady market a. a strictly fancy
brand, and the proprietor. have determined at
all hazards to uphold this reputation. Apprc-
eating the enterprise OF the pudderar Brothers
in establishing this necessary convenience for
a large section Of country ourself We think
they have right to claim liberal patronage
aud just appreciation from their neighborS
asd friends, aud We believe the cili1eus Of the
surrounding country will do themselves the
credit To accord il to them. The machinery
was constructed under the skillful supervision
Of Mr. W. \. Potts, Of Madison and adds

That Railroad.

We are left to infer from the publications on
the subject during the past week or two, that
the Cincinnati Southern has been definitely
located from South Danvile to Chitwood, on
the Tennessee line, a distance Of 80 miles on
which route there are eleven tunnels, the
largest being Kings mountain, in this county.
We also notice that the contract to excavatg
this tunnel Of 1900 feet was awarded a few
DAYS ago to Mcssrs. Bib a Tebblcr, Of Lex
ingtsn, at $4,000. This much is revealed to
the public by the astute trustees Of the road,
and we are to infer that it is bona dde trans
action, and therefore the question Of location
is settled, and the presumption necessarily
follows that the road will be put under con-
tract in a short time, and be pushed forward
to AZ early completion. As to whether the
road has, or ever will be, located from South
Danville to Cincinnati, or from Chitwood to
Chattanooga, verify no man knowoth. Even
the important desidera,um Of crossing the
Ohio has not yet been determined upon. 1t
is whispered that some Of the trustees who
have property at Ludlow, are working to Sc
cure crossing at that point, which will leave
the Newport and Covingtun fellows out in
the chilly air. We would be happy to an
nounce to the anxious people along either Of
the proposed lines that the prospects are fav-
orable to them, or that there is "a single good
reason to suppose that the shrill whistle of the
iron horse will greet their ears even in the
dim future, but alas, We fail to see sufficient
grounds for the hope. The mere fact that
the company will throw up few sLovels,ul
Of mother earth at Kings mountain argues
nothing in favor Of the early construction OF
the road but simply goes to show that the
trustees are sharp enough to make an effort
at least to protect their charter from repeal
We must have patience though and we shall
see what we shall see.
