EiiifOr Herald:

EsUfor Herald:
1t is the general opinion of our far
mers that the present wheat crop is the
best ever raised in this section. Oats
are very Indifferent and the yield will be
very small. Prof. w. III. Coppage has
been engaged to teach the school at
New Baymus this fall. Hardin il a
splendid teacher and we wish him the
success he deserves. Another wedding
is expected soon. We have bachelor
i'm our neighbOrhOod who says he is go
ing to get married soon. When find
out the exact time L will give you full
particulars.
The happiest man we have is f. II.
Bennett, it's boy and favors its papa.
w. L. Bean, our energetic druggist, is
doing a good business at this place.
Zip" has, by his fair dealing, won
many friends. Messrs. Houston and
Morris who, with their families, went
to Missouri last fall, have recently re-
turned to old Kentucky. do not know
why they came back but suppose the
climate there did not suit them.
The Meado(rlw is going TO be mOwn
pretty clean this year about the first
Monday in August. Messrs. V. w. and
w. +. Acton cradled l. acres of wheat
in one day this season for Labrn Wright.
This is "boss" cradling, and if any read
er doubts it, call for the proof.
May the HERALD's editors and pub
fishers be crowned with success is the
wish of ORANGE.

Editor Herald.
The wheat is all harvested, the grain
good, heads small, yield, two-thirds of a
crop. Oats low, heads light, yield, not
over half a crop. Corn is looking well.
Health good-taling it all together,
We have no right to complain.
The political feeling is growing warm.
| think that Hooker will swell the DEM
Ocratic majority considerably i'm this dis
trict. | think that every voter that ev-
er east Democratic vote ought to vote
for Hooker. We have all the elements
combined i'm him that it takes to make
u good Representative. AS for Meador
We have tried him sufficiently to kOnw
what he will do. Let me say to the
Democrats of the county that this is the
time To stand by your colOrs and vote
the whole ticket-leave no man out.
The Republicans are fully aroused, /
never saw. them so desperately i'm ear
nest. III they succeed i'm electing Mead
or it will be through the neglect of the
Democrats to do their duty. Then let
us remember that this is the opening
campaign of another Presidential elec-
ton. As | think the destiny of the
country depends. If we fail to elect IA
Democratic President We are financial
ly ruined. For eighteen years the Re
publicans have held the reins of govern
ment and what is our condition to-day?
Every article of produce is below what
it costs to raise it. These are facts that
Republicans can not deny. We have
grounds for. At the last session We had
a majority in both Houses of Congress.
Now we see IA change for the better, let
every Democrat he at his post and do
his whole duty. Already has the star
of hope begun to dawn, then let Ills rush
forward to do battle for the great cause
of liberty. | will close this by saying
that the great Tenbroeck of the Repub-
lican party will find his Parole i'm our
little Hooker.
The HERALD reaches us regularly,
and assure eyoui it is a welcome visitor. /
deem it one eOfthe bestcounty papersin the
State. Every man i'm the county should
he a subscriber. | know of no other
county paper that takes as much inter
est in agriculture as the HERALD-as
an evidence see the large premium list
given for farm produce, which you
don't see in other county paper.

who kepresents the United states.

In his veto message the President
quotes the clause of the Constitution
which declares that Congress may reg
ulate "the times, places and manner Of
holding elections for Senators and Rep
resentatives," and also the latter amend
ment which provides that "the right of
citizens of the United States to vote
shall not be denied or abridged ON ae-
count of race, color, &C., and eOnfers up
ON Congress the power to enforce this
by appropriate legislation" The Pres
ident then condemns the measure offer
ed for his signature because sit Is not
proposed to deny to the United States
even the necessary civil authority to
protect the national elections" Pray
who proposes to deny this to the United
States? Is the President the United
States? The Constitution eonfers upon
Congress the right to make certain reg
ulations concerning the election of its
members The two Houses have pass
ed a bill designed, as they believe, to
prevent any undue interference of the
military at such elections. This action
Is most certainly within their province.
Ii is not a denial to the United States
of the rights conferred by the Constitu-
ton, but ON the contrary il is the exer-
else by the Congress of the United
States, with whom the power is lodged,
of the very rights in question. The two
Houses of Congress certainly represent
the United States as much at least as
the President, and when they deny to
the army the right to interfere at the
polls they deny nothing to the United
States Ii is the people of the United
states by their representatives in Con-
gress assembled who insist that the
fright of citizens of the United States
to vote shall not be denied or abridged
by the display of an armed force at the
polls for partizan purposes. III there is
no ground for apprehension, no harm is
done by rendering such a menace ille-
gal, and thus securing to all full and
free exercise Of the elective franchise.
But the pretense that because the Presi-
dent is of one political party and the
majority in Congress are Of another he
is the United States, and they by the
exercise of their legitimate powers are
denying something to the United
States, is a most offensive and uDvar.
rantable assumption that ought not to
pass without severe rebuke.-M "

WILSON'S MILLS, July II, 1879.
Etnor H7aId:
Wheat pretty well all stacked in good
Orler-crops first-rate-oats about all
in the shOck-crOp only moderately
good. The outlook for corn at this
writing, is very encouraging, though a
severe drouth might change the features
of the case materially. The recent rains
gave an excellent opportunity for set
ting tobacco, though the farmers did
not avail themselves of il as a general
thing, it being rather too late. There
is considerable lack of an average crop
i'm this section. Some of our largest to-
bacco raisers have not set plant. Mr..
Ansel Wilson and Thomas Felix, for
instance, who usually raise from twenty
to thirty acres each, have not set a sin
gle plant.
Politics are at "a low ebb i'm this part
of the county. We thought this cam
vass for the Legislature would be a
kind of three-cOrnered one, but from
what we can see and hear, it is alto
gether one-sided-we are almost a unit
for Bennett, i'm this part of old Ohio
county. We heard of Meador riding
through the northeast part of the coun-
ty, and as for Mr.. Hooker, We have
heard nothing from him except that he
was ''mumping" Friends, MeadOr and
Hooker, let me tell you rs one who loves
you, haul down your sign--yOur cake Is
dough this time-you have each in your
turn been successful, but remember that
neither of you ever made the race against
John \. Bennett. If you have made
up your minds to make the race intact,
| guess you will do it, notwithstanding
my admOnitiOn. | do not wish to be

The Professor might, with more pro-
priety have said, "Gentlemen, / am n

The Professor may light in and criticise
us half TO death. III he does we will be
glad of it. Criticism is good and we
know he is able to do it.

Editor Herald:
Crops of all kinds We're never more
promising. On Wednesday, % inst,
your correspondent, accompanied by
several other parties from town, attend
ed the closing exercises of Miss Belle
Sullenger's school at Tilden, seven miles
north of Dixon, in this county. On our
arrival, about A. NJ, We found the
school seated i'm a most elegantly arran-
ged arbOr and enjoying some very sweet
music, discOursed by our string band.
Better behavior during the whole exer-
cises, was never witnessed. The first
part of the programme was the eXami-
nation of number of little BOYS and
girls on the "WOrd Method" by the use
of McGuffey's chart. Their knowledge
of the marks of punctuation, their ac-
curacy in inflexiOn, pronunciation, and
the readiness with which they called
the words, clearly demonstrated the de-
cided advantage this method has over
the old one. The next exercise was the
examination of the whole school on the
sounds of the letters, syllabication, pro-
nunciation, accent and emphasis. Ere
quent expressions Of appreciation from
the audience evinced the fact that this
part of the exercise was a success, also
the fact that too much importance can
not be attached to the fundamental
principles-Of all branches of education.
Time and space will not admit of my
giving, i'm detail, statement of all the
exercises; but, muituni IN pdruO, the ex-
animation, throughout, reflected great
creuIt upon the school, evincing the
fact that the teacher and pupils spared
neither time nor pains to make it profit
able to all, and of lasting benefit to the
pupils. Ii would be proper to state, as
an evidence of the high appreciation
of the school in the community, that
through the generosity of Mr.. j. a. JUS
tice and lady the pupils, accompanied
by their teacher and the string band,
marched about half mile through a
delightful shady grove to the mansion
of Mr.. Justice, where they, having pre-
viOusly received an invitation, shared
the kind hospitality of this generous
family in the enjoyment of one of the
best dinners il was ever the good fort
une of your correspondent to sit down
to. The table was richly laden with all
the viands of the season. After dinner
the scholars marched back i'm double
file to the grove, the band playing an
appropriate March," following which
was large concourse of people. Even
ing programme was composed of read
ings, declamations and compositions,
too tedious to give i'm detail. At the
conclusion of the exercises, B. +. Chan
dler, a young man and student of the
school, arose and said that, as student
of the school, he desired to manifest his
appreciation of the school, now about to
close, and feeling the sentiment of gem
eral satisfaction was shared alike by the
patrons and scholars, he wished to offer
the following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we the patrons and
scholars of Miss Belle Sullenger's school
at New Highland, recognize i'm her Il
lady of high literary attainments, and

from whose teachings we have received
valuable instruction, and we here ten
der her our grateful acknowledgements
not only for what we have learned, but
also for her kindness and high bearing
as lady; and she has our best wishes
for her success wherever the duties of
life may call.
The following resolutions We're offered
by the teacher and pupils:
Rcsotrcd, That for the valuable assis-
tance of the string band, we extend to
It's members, j. ID. Hill, a. Pike and
w. j. Johnson, our gratitude and wish
them bright and happy future.
Resotred, That in Mr.. j. y. Justice
and lady we recognize gentleman and
lady of public spirit and philanthropy,
and the interest they have manifested
in our school, and their hospitality to us
to-day, prove them to he eminently de
serving the good opinion Of the entire
community. NIEMAND.
