remarkable fact that here in the great county Of

The above is from the Democrat Of last week
On the Oath Of May last, just six weeks previous

months, the Democrat used the following Ian

Every peace.loving and law abiding citizen
in the state 10 undoubtedly anxious to see Mr.
Baxter triumph over the band Of plunderers who
are endeavorng to get possession OF the state gov
ernment, and will stand by him to the end. Nc
Clure and his piratical crew made Baxter govern
or over the expressed will Of the people and IN the
most shameless and outrageous manner, eXpscti g
him to be subservient to all their schemes to fur-
ther rob, plund or and oppress the people OF tins

their liking, they attempt in almost - equally a
disgrsceful manner to get him out as they got him
in, and supply his place with one that 'eH work

EDIreR VAN BuRKN Pass
Dear Sir: As your valuable paper has con-
siderable circulation here. / take pleasure in
dropping you the items of interest. Our lit
tie settlement was taken by storm on Friday
last. Wagons commenced pouring in about
4eclock p. NJ, pedestrians, men, women and
children on horses, mules ponies, etc. Well,
what's up? Why, Prof Lee is going to have
an Exhibition tonight, and we want to get \
good seat, for we know his little folks are go
ing to give us a treat. So followed the crowd
and by dusk the large and commodous lnsti-
tuts Building was jammed, not even standing
room, wagons were driven to the windows
and numbers had to remain outside. Prof.
Lees pupils acquitted themselves so well
that do not know how to mention some
without ALL But Miss Belle Saunders acted
her sprightly part With Master Jesse Millar
so well as to bring down the house; Miss Put
man, of Fsrt Smith, as Grandma was-well,
made US think of old-time folks sure. The
other two characters, six months and six
years after marriage, she must carry cut the
first but must not carry out the second to the
perfection she did that night Miss Gertrude
Ramey was truly graceful in her characters
and Miss Thompson as Mrs Bang.own was
unrivaled. Messrs. Bayley, Heard, Harrell,
AlsabroOk, Quesenbury, Wagner, Mahan and
Pickel and Master Miller were perfect in all
their deelamations and acting. The wee chaps
and others all deserve notice and were they
not so numerous could make special mention
Of each. Prof. Lee gives his pupils little
fun at the close of each session and they truly
deserve it after their close application of five
months.
Mr.. Ed, we have first class High School
here and Prof Lee can teach them any thing
from AK to just-a far as you want-them-t to-
go. lie teaches languages and higher mathe-
mates.
Terribly dry and no rain here for four
weeks past Crops suffering, but just while
am writing few gentle drops are patterng
and we may have good rain.
Our village is bound to go ahead-schools,
churches and educated professional men gem
orally are rubbing up old fogyism until you
would hardly know some of the old residents,
but they do not move fast cnough yet but the
spur is not spared.
Not intending to tresspass on youI space,
am yours, SCALPEL.
