We have noticed for the past two
weeks from the current quotations in
the daily papers, the steady advance
in all grades Of refined sugars. Hav-
ing interviewed one Of our best posted
grocers, we learn that this advance is
independent Of foreign supply, or do

Congress passed Jar uary last for the
protection of the Sugar Refners of
the East, all raw foreign sugars must
pass through the hands OF the Rein

fined sugars that enter our ports which
virtually throws foreign sugars Dem

This will be the day when the PEG.
pie Of Kentucky who arc entitled to n
vote will lie permitted to cast the same
b. for the men Of their choice on the
State Ticket, and for representative
in the Legislature. We presume that
by this time each man has decided
upon his choice. In many of the
counties Of the State the Democratic
party has been thoroughly organized,
and hence there will he no trouble
10 other counties, as in our own, there
are several candidates on the Demo
cratic ticket and the result we greatly
fear. However, W, have not lost con
fdence in the good sense of the people
who claim allegiance to our party, and
all yet may be well.
What we desire above all things, is
that our State Ticket may receive an
undivided vote. and a greater majority
than ever before given since the war.
We are not sufficiently acquainted with
the past electio in Kentucky, being,
comparatively, a stangcr, bot our in
formation is that Kentucky Democrat,
have rarely, if ever, been known to
fail in the discharge of their whole
duty. That such may he their aim
and desire in the present canvass, is
our earnest hope. We know that the
whole country from North to South,
fpem~Esast to West, look to Kentucky |
for an example. Shall we disappoint
the friends Of true government, or
shall we encourage them by our etjrts
to rid the country Of an Administration
which has disgraced us as nation?
With an abiding faith in the patri-
otism and good sense of our county,
State and National Democracy, we
leave the matter in their hands, con-
tent to abide the result whatever it
may be.
