Jefferson County.

DR. n. L. Guice, the efficient health
officer of jefferson county, reports as
follows:
1t is believed that not single case of
yellow iever now exists within the borders
of our county. The Danger of the spread
of the disease, however. from Claiborne
county is now greater than at any former
period. owing to lis great prevalence in the
rural districts of that county. Our county
quarantine against Claiborne is being rig
idly enforced both day and night, no per
sons whatever, and no goods capable of
carrying the poison OF the disease being
allowed to enter from that point.

II. Stephens.
Philadelphia Times.l

1t is the fashion down South to call all
opponents of Democracy, Radicals, but this
fashion will not last much longer if such
men as Aleck Stephens champion the
cause of the opposition. Mr.. Stephens. not
content with forcing himself down the
throat of the regular convention in his own
district, shows that he is acting on principle
by pattiDg independent movements gener-
rally on the head. very much, we may add,
to the disgust of his straight out supporters
Lester, reputed Bourbon, is running in
the Seventh district, and Mr. Stephens pub
fishes far and wide that an independent can
didate. Dr. FELTON,, the present member,
ought to be returned.
ct will be remembered that the DEM
ocrats of Mr.. Stephens district nominal
ed him after he had refused to abide the
caucus decisions of the party in Wash
ington, and defied their opposition at
home. We presume they will learn that
trucking is not always the best way to
deal with malcontents.)
