Voters of Montgomery County.

Fellolo- Citizens = Encouraged by the solicit
tations of friends in various paris OF the
county AS we'll as by repeated assurances
that my course in the last Legislature met
the approval OF the people, ! respectfully
announce myself candidate for the next
SENATE of the State. In doing so, how
ever, it is but due TO myself to say, that
among the several measures of retrenchmenl
brought forward by myself in the last House
of Delegates, were two in relation to the fees
of lawyers in criminal cause.-the one, to limit
the appearance fee OF the States Attorney, in
ali eases of indictment for misdemeanor and
felony, to five dollars in each case, with such
additional compensation as the Judges Of the
Circuit Court may recommend rs reasonable
in eases OF SPECIAL labor; and the other, to
restrict the appearance fee Of the attorney APP
pointed by the Court to defend prisoner, 10
five dollars in all cases The farmers and tax
payers of the county have these bills to pay,
and have also, the right, presume, through
their representatives in the Legislature. 10 see
that they are not unreasonable
The two measures above alluded to as hav-
ing been introduced by myselt-and which were
recommended by our present resident Judge of
the Circuit Cour-passed ihe.Ilouse OF Dele
gates without dissenting voice, and had
they not been defeated in the Senate through
heinstrumentality of our present State Senator
who ! understand is again Il candidate
would have saved the county II considerable
sum. To my measures, reducing to something
like what they were before the warl the fees of
the Sheriff for keeping and feeding prisoners
as also the fees of the Crier of Court, the
Senator had 10 objection, but the moment
undertook TO reduce the fees of the lawyers in
criminal cases-alike paid by the county--the
Senator not only objected but had my bills
to that effect defeated in the Senate, notwith-
standing, as said before, they had passed the
House of Delegates unanimously. These are
the facts shown by the record copy ofwhich
the Senator and myself both have-either of
which, presume is open 10 inspection.

Prescriptions in me n'becoming candidate,
TO let the people decide at the primaries

to reduce the expenses of the county where
they were not, more Immediately, under the

The advocate has fallen into an almost
inexcusable error in the publication of O
comment upon the selection of nominees fol
County Commissioners lone from each Elec
ton District) under the present plan, which
was adopted before the county was re-dis
tricted, when there were five districts. The
ADVOCATE says: an the present plan no such
rule is laid down, and it is permissible that
the five County Commissioners come from
one district" This is palpable error as
the Advocate will discover if it will refer tc
section 9th OF the plan. Thinking that tn,
Advocates comment might, perhaps, mislead
the people and cause confusion, which was
unintentional, we to avoid the same have
made this correction, which that journa
should give publication TO next week, as ut
doubt 1t will. The Executive Committee
should read the 9th section of the plan, re
ierring 10 this matter, carefully for theil
government in making the announcement
OF the result throughout the county, as th,
same section directs them 10 do.

SRCRHT OF LARGE CRoPs.-One o.
the strong points in English farming
was recently emphasized as follows by
Professor Roberts Of Cornell University
Herein, says he,' i am satisfied, lies
the secret of England's success in rals-
ing larger crops. 1t would take away
the breath efa prairie farmer to hear
even an Englishman's enumeration oI
the 'spuddIngs,' the 'grubbings,' the
'twitchings,' the borrowings. the cross
harrowings, the rolllngs aud crushingc,
that heavy clay field is subjected to
before it is considered ready for wheat.
What is this all for? Simply to unlock
the full store house Of nature. That it is
full has been proved time aud again. BY
actual analysis 1t is found that an aver
age soil contains, IN the first six inches,
plant food enough for from fifty to one
hundred and fifty full crops ofgrain. l
do not desire 20 discourage the purchase
and use OF fertilizers, but what L do pro-
test against is, purchasing on time COM
mercial manures at forty dollars per ton,
which are really worth only Twenty-Five,
to enrich cloddy fields already fairly rich
in plant food locked up. it is true, but
there, none the less, only waiting a lit
tie judicious application Of brain and
muscle TO set it fre e.

READILY IMAGINED The hour for
afternoon service had arrived, and,
though the orgauist VAS in his place,
the choir had not arrived. By some
mlshap, also the key of the organ had
been misplaced.
The minister, not knowing these
facts, solemnly arose, and,' after an
nouncing hymn and reading it, took
his seat. There was no response from
the organ or choir. Silence ..rcigned
supreme.
The minister aud congregation be-
came uneasy. All eyes were turned.to
the organ-loft.
At length-the organist, with a fdse-
ty manner and very red face, came
to the railing in front of the loft, and in
tone intended as whisper, bat
which was distinctly heard by all, made
the following startling announcement:
Mister breecher, mister breecher, We
vent have no singing dis afternoon.
De key not coomed, aud de lady vat
sings de sobrano bees not .cocmed, and
de rest of de people vat sings be not
coomed, and de organ bees not cbened.
and We WON'T have no singing dis alter
noon, mis- er breecher, daps so.' The
effect may be readily imagined
