tho Radical organ of Huntington com.
ty, published at the home of Mr. Afri.
ca, gives his friends due notice that il
the Democrats nominate Mr.. Africa
that there will be warm work. lie
says: The prominent Republican can
didates for Secretary of Internal Af
fairs are Stone, of Warren, Jackson
of Mercer, Billlngsly, of Washington,
and Donley, Of Greene. We say to the
Republicans that the very best man "a
be found, must be nominated for this
Office. 1t is more than probable that
the Democrats will nominate our fel.
low-townsman, J. Simpson Africa
Esq, as their candidate, and he will be
hard to beat. With Mr.. Africa in the
field, there will be no walking over the
course. He has an extended acquain.
tance throughout the State, and has
hosts of trends wherever known"

A reform club which existed of late in one OF
our back towns has departed this life, and is as
dead as Adam, supposipg Adam to be little
deader than any one else. The last meeting
was variedly interesting. and gentleman
who was present, favors us with the facts in the
case.
1t was evening, and the hall was about half
full, and the meeting progressed as quietly as
usual till the question of "have all kept the
pledge since the last meeting?" was reached,
when one of the brothers got up and remarked
that he kinder sorter had, and then again he
kinder sorter hadn't. He was requested to
state his case and did it, He observed that he
had COW, which fell sick, and he was advised
to give her some gin. He concluded that about
gallon would be the proper amount to get,
and got it. Just here brother got up and
wanted to be informed how much gin he gave
her. The speaker said he kinder sorter guessed
he gave her about half pint. This satisfied
the seeker after information and the brother
went ahead and remarked that before the COW
got well, his wife fell sick. and he gave her
some gin. Chow much?" demanded the presl-
dent and the brother said he sorter kinder
guessed about three fingers. This sati .fed the
president, and the brother went on. He said
that he got tired out watching with his wife,
and he fell sick, and it so happened that
Brother Smith fell sick, and they took some
gin. Just then the iuquisitiye party in the
back seat arose and manifested decided inter-
est in the matter, and wanted to know how
much they took, and the brother hesitated for
moment and then said that he sorter kinder
guessed that they drank it all, at which the
brother in the back seat moved that "the whole
circus unban1," which the same being the sense
of the meeting. was adopted, and the meeting
ended by singing ''Sweet bye and bye"
