Farmers Picnic.

We received the notice, last week. of
the Pic Mic at Oliver Springs too late to
make reference to it editorially. This
we learn will be gathering Of Farmers
and Grangers from all parts Of the coun-
ty--a hsppy re union, after the work of
the season is laid by, of those that have
met before and acquaintance made by
those who have not heretofore had the
pleasure of meeting. That they will have
q good time, is very evident, as the La
dies Of various sections Of the county
are taking the matter in hand, and when
they do-there is no such word with
them as fail. We have not learned the
order Of arrangements, but enough is
known, that a good time will be had, and
we would advise all who can to pack
their baskets and put in an appearance at
Oliver Springs, on Saturday next, the
25,h Of July.

A Mechar lcs Say.

EDITOR VAN BUREN PRgss
In your paper of the l4,h last, no
tice an article, signed Farmer, in
which the writer speaks Of the mpor-
tancc Of the fail election the selection Of
honest and efficient officers, favors the
abandonment of party organizations, ap-
peals to farmers, mechanics aud laborers
to unite and suggests that they meet at
Oliver Springs, in September, for the
purpose OF consultation, in order that
unity Of action may be secured for the
accomplishments these paramount OBJ
jects, and as mechanic beg leave to
say a few words in the Press.
The vast Importance of the fall cleo
ton must be obvious to every rejecting
mind, when the extravaganza, oppression,
fraud aud corruption which have charac-
terized the administration Of county and
State the past six or seven years, are
borne III mind. And it must be admitted
that these evils are, to some extent, at.
tributable to the indifference Of the peo.
pie in the selection of officers, and yet the
majority of the people are excusable
somewhat for this Indifference, because
of acknowledgements intimidation and cleo.
ton frauds, perpetrated by the men in
aathorty, to perpetuate their reign aud
lease Of power, while others, who had
the power, in their blind adherence to
party and party leaders and prejudice
against their political opponents. hon
eslly suffered all these things. But, hap
ly, the time has arrived when all preju.
dice and animosity engendered during
the late civil war have ceased to obscu. G
the understanding and influence the ac-
ton of the honest republicans, and they
have assisted in striking the manacles
from the hands of those who opposed
them in that war They see whittier we are
drifting, that financial ruin threatens us,
that civil liberty and republican institu
tions are in jeopardy, and in,order to
avert such great calamity they are will
ing to strike hands with all who desire
to work to that end. The democrats are
now free and they can rise high above
past wrongs and are willing to labor for
the 90 Cd Of the county and state with
all who desire q new order OF things,
and extend welcoming hand to all such.
As to the obliteration Of party lines
In the coming campaign, II occurs to me
now that it would be the part Of wisdom
to do 90, in the selection Of county otlic
ers, however the developments Of the
next two months may render it impossi
bic. But / do sincerely hope and trust
that nothing will arise to prevent the

deluded by these fa~ning sycopbants and
tell them get behind us and when we want
their services we will lst them know.
Let us be particularly carefully to choose
men to ill the various Offices, who will
exemplify the old Greek proverb, None

tees, men who are unseltish and who
will use their 0est endcavOrs to promote

like the rose.
The suggestion that the farmers, me
chancs and laborers meet at Oliver
Springs, at some future time agreed upon,
l esteem good one and would urge the
importance of such meeting, that there
may be harmony of action in carrying
out any plans adopted to subserve the
