upon the lightning express to secure
Haycraft's services. He ran upon
the Major a day or so ago. and accost-

A SPLENDID ENDORSEMENT.
Judge Little Thoroughly Qualified.

CALHOON, KY, July q, 1850.
Editor Herdld'
DEAR SIR:-Having learned that it is
being industriously circulated in other
parts of the district that Judge Lucins
p. Little is not qualified or competent
tn discharge the duties of the office of
Circuit Judge; AS his personal friends
and acquaintance, the members of the
CalhoOn bar and the county officials
where he was raised, and his qualifica-
tions are well known, take this means
of saying to the Democracy Of the dis
trict where he is not personally 30 well
known that if elected oe can assure
them that the district will be hOnOred
and the duties of the Office faithfully
and efficiently discharged. 1t seems to
us who are 80 well acquainted with
Judge Little and his abilities as law
yer and his qualifications and fitness
for the position of Circuit Judge AN i'm
putatiOn upon him to refer to his quail
ficatiOns, which We regret the machina-
tions of INSCRIPTIONS partizans compel
us to do.
These disparaging reports are of
course intended to deceive the people
who do not enjoy the personal acquain-
lance of Judge Little.
They are also aimed at the Demo-
cratic party whose representative he is
in this canvass. We trust no true DEM
ocrat or good citizen looking to the in
terest of the district will be deceived by
these false imputatiOns.
We know this suggestion will be n
a surprise to Judge Little; but none the
less duty we owe him to contradict 80
unjust, erroneous and ridiculous an i'm
putation; one that he would doubtless
consider too contemplate to notice, and
that otherwise might go uncontradicted
and thereby fraud be perpetrated on
many good citizens throughout the dis
trict. Very respectfully,

We are informed that this old estab-
lished institution has been re-organized
and put on anon-denominational basis.
An equal number of trustees have been
elected from the Presbyterians, Cum
berland Presbyterians, Baptists, Chris
tan and Methodist, South. The Col
lege is to be run entirely free from any
particular church influence, thereby
making school ON which the ,choJe
people can have a claim and can patron
ize without any fear of their religious
preferences being interfered with. The
teachers have been employed from the
different churches so far rs II could be
done and secure instructors of thorough
culture and large experience i'm teaching
The buildings are undergoing thorough
repairs outside and within, 40 that by
the time the fall session opens, Septem-
Der 9th, this College viii be one of the
most inviting boarding schools in the
State. The buildings are to be refur-
nished and fitted up in first-class style.
IL Is the design to introduce the latest
improved furnaces for heating the build
ings, thereby avoiding all the dirt COM
ing from the use of stoves and fire
places. AT no time during the thirty
years of the history Of the school has il
enjoyed better prospect than now,
with President f. w. Hall at its head.
Having taught for several years i'm Ken
lucky, he is well known as one of the
most thorosgh and successful educators
In the South. An able corps of teach
ers have been engaged to assist him,
and we are confident that those having
daughters to educate cannot send them
to any school where they will be more
thoroughly trained and carefully
guarded. rr
Greenville College for young men Is
under the management of Prof. T.. w.
Hall, yet ii il entirely disconnected
from the Female College. 1t is thought
that the two colleges can be better gov
erned and more successfully under the
same President. Young gentlemen
board in town at from g to $ per
week, according to accommodations.
Greenville cannot I've surpassed for
healthfulness dny'chere in the State. Ii
is authoritatively stated that in the
whole thirty years there has not been a
single death of student i'm the Female
College. Parents in arranging to send
their children away to school will do
well to consult President Hall. The
school is advertised in another column.

One of the most pleasant hops that
the young people of Hartford have had
the pleasure of attending for many
months, was given by the young gem
tlemen of town last Friday night ut
Masonic Hall. The night was one of
exceeding lOveliness: the mellow moon
and balmy breeze combined to make
the occasion one of pleasure and delight.
The OwensbOrO string band dispensed
sweet music, and
Light feet trppe,l swiftly Ia the viol's twang
While all the earth with mirth and music
rang"
In the early part of the evening the
hall was simply crowded, there being
no less than two hundred persons pres
ent. So pleasant was the occasion that
no notice was taken of time, and not
until quite late hour did the party adj
journ. The young ladies seemed to vie
with each other in beauty and dress, and
let us say here that no town in southern
Kentucky can surpass the young ladies'
of Hartford i'm beauty, fashion or IN
fell ect

THE COMMONwEALTH'S RACE.
Hayeraft's Chances.
DAVIES COUNTY, July %,

DAVIES COUNTY, July -, 1850.
Mr. John Bdrren:
SIR:-knowing your reputation for
fairness | seat myself to correct some
impressions that have been made rela-
tive to the vote of this county for States
Attorney place. Now, the Noe men
are claiming that their man is to be
elected because all the whisky men,
gamblers, lawyers and "sich," are for
him. | know better, and have been in
to the "hub' to see show il isv myself.
There 'ain't" fewer than several of the
"whiskiest" men in OwensbOrO for HAY
craft. The last bar room started, the
one in old "cOurt row." where the up
stairs shutters are always kept closed to
keep the "tiger" from jumping out the
window, is very Haycraftish, and they
WELD big influence among the colored
as well as the white population. And
there are two other reputable establish
ments of like elk" stirring up the
'monkeys" for the Major. Among the
gamblers the biggest one in town, and
the most radical in the business, is work.
ing day and night for the Major; and
he is right for it, too, for the Major
knew he was too good man to go to
Jail when convicted Of gambling, and
had the papers held up until he could
get the good Governor to remit that
part of his fine going to the State; the
State is rich and did not need il; the
Major did. The biggest gambling house
i'm the Green river country, where more
money is "bet, won and lost" than any
other, has been in successful operation
for three years and never had a single
indictment against them, are for the
Major and doing him a power of good
among the "craft." Now, the lawyers
are mostly for Noe, and so are the
preachers and doctors, but one of the
strongest lawyers here i'm politics, one
who knows everybody because he has
been acknowledgements candidate for
many vacancies, is at work hard for
Haycraft among the Democrats, and
doing good work for the Major. Then
there are the negroes-they are for the
Major with one accord, and they will
stand To him through thick and thin,
you bet. So you see it amt so bad for
the Major as has been reported. They
say that the Major is too stingy to spend
his money, but l tell you his barrel is
being freely tapped, and We will make
the boys chop this week and on the
day of the election. We are fixing to
carry OwensbOrO. You look out for
Sundays work and you will see the eff
feet on Monday. l am in u hurry.
Yours,
JUSTICE.

The Republican Candidate for sheriff
Tackles n Prominent tsreen-
hacker and Gets q Flea im
HIs HOnnes.

A few days since,a gentleman related
AN amusing dialogue which occurred
between David l.. Smith and DIR. +. III.
Whittinghill, a prominent Greenbacker
of our county, as follows:
Mr.. Smith.-Well, doctor, l hope
you will support me as ! am not the
nominee of any party and am "A pretty
good Greenbacker myself.
DIR. W. Well, Mr.. Smith what evil
dence have you to offer to convince me
that you are a pretty good Greenback-
ere
Mr.. Swell, what kind of evil
dence doyou want?
DIR. WI would like for you to refer
me to some Greenback vote you have
east, as the best evidence.
Mr.. S.-Hesitatingly-I have not
voted with the Greenbackers at all as
yet, but / expect to vote with them
hereafter.
DIR. WHY, Mr.. Smith did you
not attend the Republican State Con-
vention as delegate from Ohio county,
and have you not always, and persis-
tently, voted the Republican ticket?
Moreover, understand that you are
one of the most Jealous of Republicans,
anu your purity - tne 4Ndltohu chciiy
of mine, indeed the TuinOus policy of
the Republican administration of public
affairs, necessltated the origin of the
Greenback party, and while your party
and mine are Numerically opposed to
each other, the Democrats are the Ma
tiOnal friends and allies of my party,
and having no candidate of my own, |
shall be compelled to vote for Mr.. Ellis,
as the representative of by far the best
friend of my party.
Mr.. S.-But, Dr.
DIR. W.-But nothing Why have not
the Democrats and Greenbackers fused
i'm Maine, and put u joint electoral tick
ct i'm the field? Why certainly; and
they ought to unite all over the country
and overthrow the Republican party,
which is responsible for our hard times.
Exit Mr.. Smith.

Old John, "well, Major, L heard
also of leap you made in the court
house"
Haycrsft, Eyes, / made a magnifi-
cent leap there, which paid me big
(patting fat pocket-book). in order
to get a big allowance against the State
/ aSore that did employ Judge Will
Jams to help me defend the case of
Bennett Stevens against the State, and
made as big showing as possible, and
Judge Stuart and me knew each 9TH
er, and got it. Ipocketed the grab
of 81, 900 and would not divide with
Williams. He sued me and | went
into that case and leaped clear over
and swOre nerer did employ him."
Old John, 'you'll do! What salary
do you ask ?"
Haycraft, "well, me and Judge
Stuart are a kind of mutual admira-
ton society of our own, and Stuart
said my services were worth 1888 Fer
