THE BETTER WAY.=SpeSking of
divorces brings to mind very
pleasant anecdote. 4 gentleman
who did not live very happily with
his wife decided to procure q di-
vorce, and took advice on the sub
ject from an intimate friend, nan
of high social standing. $50 home
and court your wife for a year,"
said the wise adviser, " sand then
tell me the result" They bowed in
prayer and separated. When a year
had passed away, the once COM
planning husband called again to see
his 'friend, and said: 81 have called
to thank you for the good advice
you gave me, and to tell you that
my vito and I are as happy as when
first we were maEried. I cannot be
grateful enough tor your good coun-
sell" 81 am GLAD to hear it, dear
sir,," said the other, "and 1 hope
you will continue to court your wife
as long as you live" Husband
wife-go thou and do likewise.

LOWER GOLD HILL. - A stroll
through Lower Gold Hill reveals
the fact that if it continues to in
crease in population in the same
ratio that it has for the past two
years, in another two years it will
be as fourishing precinct as any
in the country. Residents seem to
: take more pains in identifying and
adorning their homes with trees,
.shrubbery, flowers and plants than
'Onr neighbors of Virginia; or per-
ihaps we are more fortunate in pos
sessing soil more adapted to that
purpose. A look at the whitehead
leaves, that still cling with the ten
acity of death to the branches and
boughs of the cottonwoods aud
locusts, warns us of the near ap.
proach Of winter. Soon the little
village will be o'erspread with a
covering of snow, and will be many
weeks before we again behold the

"Cooper's Battery" who was the Demo
cratic candidate
In May, 1872, Gen Beath assumed the
duties of his Office, to the performance Of
which he brought to bear those quick
perceptive qulities of mind and that active
energy and strict integrity that had
characterized his previous course, giving
him position and making for him powerful
friends
That the confidence reposed in him by
the people when they elected him to this
important position was worthily bestowed
the high character which the office sustains
to-day, as attested by the legal professin
and all who are acquainted with the very
satisfactory manner in which the duties
thereof have been discharged, is the sure
guarantee And not only have the duties
enjoined by law been faithfully performed,
but the experience gained during his term
of Office has enabled Gen. Beath to discern
many of the wants Of our peculiar land
system and to suggest and secure such
legislation as will hereafter render the
landed interests more seure from the
adventures who made business Of taking
out land warrants for the purpose of max
ing money out Of the equitable owners.
Such is the man whom the Republican
party, through their convention Of 250
delegates, many of them the ablest and best
men of the State, have unanimously
presented to the people as their candidate
for the Office Of Secretary OF Internal
Affairs, under the new Constitution That
all who know General Beath his rare worth.
his high moral character, his private life
unspotted, his whole official career unstain-
ed, will we feel assured, agree with us, that
this honor was well merited, while it was
thus gracefully bestowed. And we con
gratulate the people of this State that their
interests in the new Office, will, next
November, be confded to this faithful,
experienced and tried public servant.
