ne drossy, pretentlous: unprlncipled
simpleton<, who either don't pay their
debts at all, or never do it except at
the tale end of an execution. By the
way, Mr.. Editor, we would advise all
such social parasites and their servilc
worsbippers-for there are people,
about your town. too, who claim to be
respectable, that do wheedlc around
and fawn upon such-to throw them

Civil Rights bill, misccscuatlon and
all. If they will be dogs. let them
be RAIDS at once, and no one will be
deceived.
Speaking of dogs, calls to mind the
fact Of a serious ep!zootic that has been
prevalent recently among the canine
population of this section. AS ne
know the Mollohon gentleman who
made the unbccoming rcnarks about
country correspondents to be dog
fancier, We will endtavor to give some
account of it. As farming aud some
thing good to cat otfends him, it may
be that dog sickness will not. The
complaint, like the horse disease two
years APO, WAS something new. 1t
was not the ordinary dog di$tcmpcr.
In the listempcr proper the animal is
effected with sever: catarrhal symp-
toms, and it is by no means a fatal
complaint, but the recent ''Scase had
no symptoms of catarrh, and was at
tended with extraordinary fatality !;
nine dogs out Of ten dying that were
attacked with it. The patient would
first exhibit disinclinatlnn to eat: and
would continue in this way for three
or four weeks; seeming to perish to
death rather than dyiug Of sickness.
1t seemed to attack young dogs more
readily than old ones. 1t was espe-
cialIy fatal to pointers. Mr.. Alex.
Welch, we understand, lost his fac
bird dog-Dr. Franklin-bred by a
distinguished dog fancier of your
town. Another young gentleman of
our community lost two puppies Of
foreign blood that were peculiarly fine.
We believe there is an old adagc, that

vailine. some individual or individuals
in the neighborhood, who seemed
;'instigated by the devil" concluded
to take time by the forclock and try
their hand with strychninc, and with
unpreccdeuted success. We know o"t

The Republican Platform.

The platform endorses the third
term principle, goes for the Civil
RisL,s Bill, blesses Patterson and
Mackcy on their agency in procuring
military help at a time when the last peg
seemed to be going from under, and
deprecates lawlessness and violence
It reviews its devotion to principles Of
financial reform, and promises to
reduce expenses. 1t maintains the
settlement of the public debt as
before; and will reject all claims
against which there is a suspicion

system Of taxation as vii! prove ad,
vantageous to agricultural interests,
and finally it promises to protect the

JALApA, S. G.,
Sept. 18th, 1871.

Mr.. EDIToR.--Somc time ago we
heard the remark from gentleman
on Mollohon Row, that paper that
tolerated and encouraged such a cor
respoudence as the country cores
pondence Of the Newberry HERALD
would surely ego up the spout" We,
Mr.. Editor, thought otherwise. This
s!anderer of country crackers. as he
calls them, insisted that this c9untry
correspondence gave nothing new, ad-
vanced not single original idea, and
wrote Of nothing but crops, chicken
pic, backbones and turnips, saur kraut,
and the like. 1t may be: Mr.. Editor:
that more has been said about chicken
pie, backbcncs, &e., than is palatable
to those who have no such things, but
country folks llko to think: talk and
write about affairs that gives them pleas
urc and gratiiics the inner man, rather
than to be e;crnaIly gabLling about
the almighty dollar, which beyond d
certain amount only gratiics tie hollow
passion of vanity. 1t is their fortune:
OF as some of the town quality would
no doubt call it, their misfortune to
pursue q calling where "Glthy lucEe' is
ouly matter Of secondary coneidcra-
ton. They know that their occupa-
tion can never make them what the
successful speculator would call rich -;
and they know further, when proper
attention is given to their farms, it is
impossible for them to study and ac-
auirc the ant Of living at other
peoples expense, as many Of the
idllng town aristocrats q do. We
do not deny but that the country
people ought to read and think more
than they do about other things than
so uuch chicken pie, sausages and the
like, but We do say that it is far better
to be exactly like they are, than to be
reading the trash aud scandal Of the
daily papers and thinking about how
they may defraud their neighbors to

The Louisiana Trouble.

The past week has been a stirring
and serious one in Louisiana. In the
city of New Orleans on the 18th, the
infamous Kellogg government was
oyerthrown and the oficers elected
rishtfully in 1872 installed into office.
The news spreading through the diff
fcrert counties, enthusiasm was every
where manifested and changes made
in all public Offices. The hopes Of
honest men ran high-Peace, order
and good government were restored.
But ere We could give the news Of the
inauguration of this revolution the
scene is changed, and Kellogg is re.
stored to authority by the AdmiHistra-
ton. The unfortunate people of
Louisiana are now where they were
before, with this difference: that they
will be made to feel the iron heel with
greater power. We do not advocate
revolution, and would rather the at
tempt to rid themselves of an odious
rule had not been made, for what SYM
pathy can be ever expected from an
adminis::ra which only recognizes
aud enfcrces a oue-sided law.

FOR TIE HERALD,

EDITOR OF HERALD:
DEAR SIR.-In your last issue you men
toned the Tax Unions as secret olSaniZa-
tions Lest a wrong impression should he
made upon the people take the oppol tuni-
ty OF denying the statement. The Tax
Unions are not so regarded by members. 1t
might DC necessary, however, to hold meet
ings with closed doors ii business Of Il GER
tain character was under consideration,
that is, the reading Of evidence gotten up
preparatory to prosecuting some public Off
cial who had been derciict ii his du.y. This
is the only business requiring secrecy, and
the result OF it will be made known to the
Grand Juries ofthc various Counties in the
Stale. If the Grand Jurics should have the
hard:hood to violate their oathS, when such
evidence is produced bcfeic them, by not
finding true bills, then the evidence would
be made known to The people. But the Tax
Unions are not compelled TO proceed secret
ly at all. They may transact all business
openly. Hoping you will give this explana-
ton room in your paper.
Ircm2in, respectfully yours,
