ElktOn.

The refreshing rains OF Wednes
day were thankfully received by all
of this community. There has not
been much corn planted on account
of the ground being so hard.
Owing to the illness of Rev. @.
w. Mitchell the pastor of the G. p.
Church, his place was supplied last
Sabbath by Rev. Mr. Benge of Ath
ems; Mr.. Benge is a young man OF
superior intellect, and promises to
make one among the finest minis
tiers of the land. Mrs. McCallum
has reopened school, having dis
banded on account of the measles.
She is fine teacher and should be
patrOnized by the people of Elkton
and vicinity. DR.. j. j. Upshaw
has recovered from his attack of
the measles, and judging from the
riding that is done by him he is do
ing a good practice, on the strength
of which he has turned out a charm
ing moustache on the gable end of
his jaw bone opposite the old stand.
Tom Buford of Pulaski, and
Rush Westmoreland of Prospect
came down calling on some young
ladies last Thursday, Tom did not
leave his horse hitched to the fence
as in former times, but hired a com
mand of colored gents to keep
guard while he whispered sweet
words into the ears of one of Elk
toms iair damsels. GILMORE.

Owen Kings Nomination.

The nomination of Hon. owen
King by the Greenback convention
will give very great satisfaction 70
his numerous friends in this county
and wherever he IL known. Mr.. king
has uniformly been consistent Dem
ocrat from principle, and only aillll-
ated with the Grcenback party from
an irrepressible desire for bringing
about certain financial reforms which
he believed could DC effected sooner
through the agency Of party devoted
mainly to such reforms. In this we
think lie was mistaken.
Mr.. King has not, however, by his
association with the new party
changed any Of Ills political principles
or opinions, and is just rs sound y
Democrat now us he was four years
ago, when lie was was elected to the
Legislature by the Democratic party.
Many who desire he defeat Of MI.

Greenback party should have held u
convention and made nomination III
such Il way Us to have the appearance
Of debating to his opponents who the
candidate should he Chat Is to redeem
the district from it's present mlsrep-
resention. II there could have been
q conference between the conventions
Of the Democratic and the Grecnback
party, ii is very probable the result
would have been to unite on Mr..
King But the premature action Of
the Grrenback convention, If adhered
to, presents to the Democratic party
when it shall meet in cOnvention-the
only alternative of endorsing Mr..
King, or nominating candidate with
the full knowledge that his election
would ensure the election of Hazel
ton. ~
IFhe Democrat will await the action
of thc Democratic convention, and If
il should be the endorsement OF Mr.
King we shall eheerfully support him,
and would greatly prefer TO see him
elected to Congress, than TO see Hazel
ton reelected Eds.
