SCHOOI. ENTERTAINMENT AT JEsUP.-
The pupils of the east side schools, last
evening repeated the entertainment given
by them two weeks since at the NJ. Il.
Church, this time at Jesup. We hear that
they were greeted with full house and
that the good people of Jesup voted their
entertainment good thing, as it undoubt-
eddy was. Much credit is due Mr. Pickett
for his indefatigable efforts in organizing
the schools for these affairs,

such man as our friend, Captain
Prather, whose missing leg lies buried

ever be painful to any man who APP
preciates high character and dlstin-
guished gallantry. We, of course, had

WE observe in the legislative pro-
ceedings on constitutional amend.
ments, that some of the members are
in favor of continuing the exclusive
jurisdiction Of probate matters in the
district courts. We regret that any
should favor thatplan. 1t is dilatory,
vexatious and expensive. The tribu-
nal for settling up estates should be
local to each county, and the probate
judges always accessible TO parties in
terested. Any clear headed, intelli-
gent man, with legal knowledge
enough to read and understand plain
statutes, is competent to fill the place;
and by restoring our old system of
county chief justices, charged with
probate Jurisdiction, estates will be
more promptly and cheaply settled. 1t
may not be as well for lawyers, but it
Is better for the people.

CO.OPERATIYE-

If we seem to dwell at too great
length ON the subject of the best mode
of selecting candidates for county and
State offices, we have no better apology
to offer than the deep interest We feel
in the honest and economical admins
tration of the peoples government.
After weighing all the plans that have
been offered, we see no other solution
of the problem, so far at least as re-
CARDS county officers, but the exercise
by the voters of their right to choose
their own agents. If it is their inten-
ton to get rid Of middlemen in politics,
as well as trade, they must do so by the
the same means-organization. With
out banding together, as in Oranges,
they fall as far short of harmony in
spirit or action as if they had no inter
ests In common, and no common pur-
pose to subserve. To bring about any
such desirable reforms as those contem-
plated by the Grangers, they must be-
gin the work by selecting honest and
competent agents for every department

NOT SO.

The correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial, at Chattanooga, is slight
ly mistaken in his opinion that there
will be a union of the Radicals and those
who supported Mr.. johnson in his race
for Congress, and that the combination
will sweep the State from Carter to
Shelby. In the first place, not even
the leadiag men who supported Mr..
johnson will enter into such a union;
and in the second place, if they did,
the great body of the rank and file of
those who followed them before, would
utterly refuse to follow them into the
unholy alliance. We know that there
is a lot of intriguers at work to effect
such union upon the basis, perhaps,
of sending Mr.. johnson to the United
States Senate, and of electing May
nard Governor. But we firmly believe
tho people will effectually squelch this
nefarious game, and send its secret
machinators to an everlasting obscurity
and contempt GaIIatin TeaReSSedn.
