THE ATTORNEY GENERALSHlP.
Judge J. Is. Jackson Recommended
for the Position.
Editors of the Registe.


The next political canvass in this State
is going to be on important one, and 1t Is
high time we were casting about for our
ablest and best men for candidates to nil
our State offices. If the honor and tone
ofthe Democratic party is to be preserved,
and our promises Of reform maintained,
we must put forward men whom the peo-
pie respect, and who, in themselves, are
IA guarantee that we mean to redeem our
pledges. To this end, permit me to sug.
gcst the name of Jacob b jackson,
Esq, of ParkerSburg, AS suitable
person to run for Attorney General. l
have known Mr.. jackson over 30 years
and know him to be a man of sterling
integrity, of education and unequaIIed
as lawyer. He stands at the head OF
the profession and will make an officer
who will do credit to the State. His re-
cord is such that no breath of Radical
SANDER can touch. His views on all
questions are conservative. He is a man,
though firm and CONSTANT Democrat,
who would be acceptable to moderate ana
fair minded Republicans. His name
would add strength I" the Democratic
cause. His majority would lead his own
party ticket. What say you, fellow
Democrats TEXAS.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

House met pursuant to recess.
The House bill adopted substitute
for Senate Bill No. So concerning the
assessment of property for taxation was
taken up and discussed. y number OF
amendments were made to the bill.
Mr.. Flemng's amendment TO except
the property of agricultural associations
from taxation elected a good deal of dis
CuSsIon.
Mr., Snldcr thought that all the agri.
cultural societies in this State were spec.
ulatlve enterprises They give from $500
to 800 premium on II horse race and 80
on a thoroughbred bull or COW, and in his
opinion were of no practical use to the
farmers. ~.
Mr.. Jackson did not know how they
rot ND their fairs in MononsalIa, but II
the Wood County Agricultural Associa-
lion was intended for a speculation 1t had
fallen far short of the mark. lie was II
stakeholder, and found that 1t had been
an annual tax, and he thought that WAS
the general history of these societies.
Mr.. Sehon said that stockholders We're
taxed for the amount of stock held 10y
them in these societies, and then II the
association was taxed it would operate as
a double tax, therefore he would exempt
them from taxation.
Mr.. Welch agreed with Mr.. Snider in
his view OF 1t.
The House refused to exempt agricul-
tursl fair associations from taxation.
Mr.. Campbell wanted an amendment

SUNDAY SCHOOL.

EmroR HERALD:-There is a Sunday
School going on in Hartford | make
this announcement for the benefit ofthose
who fail to attend, presumins that all
who fail to attend are entirely ignoront
of the important fact.
The Sunday School is called the
"Union," and is held at the courthouse
on each Sunday morning, under the super
intendence of W. L. Rowe, Esq. ! never

found it out then because my better-nalf

first thing knew walked me into the
Sunday School.
| found the room well filled with the
brightest faced little boys, and the sweet
est dearest little ducks Of girls, with doz-
ems of grown girls who,-well, | have no
idea that there is a single young man in
town worth having.
There were smiles and singing, classes
of boys, and classes OF girls, Bible classes,
question books, and the usual exercises
These we're all under the direction of the
uperintendent, whose earnestness was

The Bible class was mostly made up of
Lawyers and Doctors, presided over by
Judge Baird whose rare acumen is only

edge.
As members, there was Hill, whose in
genious answers destroyed the ponderous
gravity of Morgan's sledge-hammer ques>
tons; STROLLER, learned and theoretical;
Wedding, numerous and full of puzzling
interrogations; Dr.Miller, earnest and
always as correctly diagnosing moral as
well as physical questions; Sanderfur,
equally at home with Mosaical and COM
mon law; and Mr.. Chapman, full OF that
logic which COMPOUNDED the wise men of
the temple, confounding in a worse degree
all the other gentlemen.
enjoyed the whole thing, particularly
the absence of long-drawn prayers and
long-drawn faces, which never have and
never will make successful Sunday
School. The infantie mind doesn't see
the importance of a surplus solemnity,
and the School must be made attractive.

Of singing, slower than the wrath of the

SOME SENSIBLE TALK.

In answer to "Cousin Grange" who
tells us what the Changers mean, and
says that we simply propose to work for
ourselves and let others do the same;"
would say that if that is the object of the
order, and ifthey stop there, it is little,
low, groveling concern. Think Of that
neighbor of yours who lives for himself
alone: no time to help a neighbor in dis
tress; no charity in his heart for the poor
and needy; turns deaf ear to every
neighborhood enterprise which may be
for the general good; all this simply from
the fact that he has the means to satisfy
all his personal wants. We think the
above named character a nuisance to so>
ciety, as well as to every thing else. He
lives for self alone. But if we are not
mistaken in our notion of the Patrons oil
Husbandry, it is to bring about general
good; to elevate society, and to put down
evil wherever it is to found.
we take the ground that we, as lar
mers, have need of some professions,
such as Lawyers, Doctors and Editors.
We do not propose by including those
professions that an office could not be
filled without one of them. But we do
say, if he is honest, sober, and industri>
GUS, that simply his being a professional
man should not eternaly doom him to
bear the weight Of public displeasure
Politicians and peddling agents are a
curse, and always have been such, and
the sooner we are rid of them the better
We do not belong to the Changers
ourself that is, we are not a member,
but as zee understand it, we heartily en-
dorse them. GREEN RIVER.

the distance was extended to eight hum

cur friend Fitzhugh won the race easily,
so his friends say. This makes four

and in two he was defeated. But, in the
aggregate, we are inform ed, he is consid-
cradle ahead.
