Now for the life of us we cannot see any
intimation here that the Comptroller is to
be the judge of the constitutionality
of any law passed by the Legisla-
ture. We do not see that he is re.
quired, or empowered, to pay any debts
in particular name, in defiance of the
Legislature. Nor do we see any intima-
ton that he is to be in any particular SUI
perior to the Legislature. On the other
hand, it will be seen that he is expressly
limited to the performance Of his duties
in the manner prescribed By lac, and re
quired to perform such other duties as
shall be prescribed By lau.
Surely the Governor and his friend:
have made new and different constitu
ton from the one adopted by the peopl,
in 1867, and generally relied upon as th'
one now in force. They have doubtless
fixed up revised edition." He shou'G

OUR NEW VOLUME.

THE TIMES enters this week upon its
thirty-eighth volume. For thirty-seven
years it has been devoted to the interests
of this community. Originating at the
very zenith of the good old days" it has
lived, with its constituency, through sew
eral decades of varying fortunes. 1t wit
messed, a quarter OF century ago, the
gathering about the political horizon OF
the dark and angry clouds portentous OF
fratricidal strife. These were duly noted
in its columns, and its readers advised and
admonished of their dangerous signiti-
canoe. Later when these clouds assumed
the crimson hue of war, and rained car
mage and death, the columns of the TIN Es
bore the dreadful tale. When the con-
fict between brave men had ceased, and
the plundering onset of political hyenas
followed, still the TIMES spoke, deprecat-
ing the great outrage, but counsellins with
prudence and moderation The war and
its results has worked sad havoc with the
fortunes of cur people, but the TIMES
which has been awarded so liberal par
ticipation in their prosperity, is ready
with cheerfulness and courage to share
their adversely. Though the present bs
clouded with the gloom of adversely, the
future-the near future-is pregnant with
good promises and abundant prosperity
Whether our good old county shall real
ize full fruition of these, depends en-
tirely upon the virtue, energy and cour-
age of her rising manhood. Upon this
class the community rests its hopes of fu.
ture prosperity. There is great work
before our young men, and it is to be
hoped that they will not shrink from its
accomplishment.
The TINES will ever labor earnestly and
disinterestedly, to advance the great work
of repairing the damage to our material
interests inflicted by the past two de.
cades of misfortune, and every measure
that in its judgment tends to this end will
receive its cordial support. Believing
that political rectitude among the masses
Of the people is public virtue of para
mount importance, and inseparably con,
nected With the material advancement Of
our people, the TIMES will never be silent
upon these questions. Holding firmly the
opinion that the future prosperity OF the
South can Only be fully attained through
a renewed administration Of the General
and State Governments by the great Dem
ocratic party. the TIMES will ever counsel
as a paramount and unavoidable duty
an uneauivocsl fealty to its organiza
tien.
We return our sincere thanks to oul
patrons for the generous support they
have extended to US, and renew our prom
Uses of faithful devotion to their interests.

The Deadlock at ALBANY.

The deadlock seems 10 have been trans
ferred by Mr.. Conkl;ng from Washington
to Albany. The ballotins tor United
States Senators has continued from day to
day since our last report, without any no.
table change in the result At the ballot
ing on Tuesday, Mr., Conkling retained
his thirty -four votes, the next Republican
being MIR. Wheeler, who received twenty:
two. There seems nav to be DISPOSE,
tion on the part of the "stalwar.s" to CO.
operate with the Democrats in effectng
an adjournment. If this should he done,
the matter will be decided by Legisla
ture elected by the people, and the great
probabilities are it would be Democratic.

was not deemed pruden. to risk the bat tie
on this point, and it was thought best to
change their base somewhat. So we now
have tire friends frankly avowing that the
board ofPubiic Works must be controlled.
But not for patronage. Oh no no '! no !,
Who ever heard of patriots getting up a
crusade against their party merely for pa
tronagea No, it was to protect the inter.
ests of poor helpless citizens, whose means
were being spent for rswarding ballot box
suffers. But how unfortunate an d mop
perfume was the meeting ofthe sto ckhold-
ers of the company, which utterly demol-
ished this pretense.
So that both ofthese arguments" of the
Governor and his friends have been
weighed in the balance and found want
ing" and the question comes dawn now
to its plain essence. Shall most efficient
and trustworthy manager of the State fl
nances, thoroughly qualified for his intri-
cate duties by several years Of most salts
factory service in that capacity, be super
coded by an untried and inexperienced
friend of Gov. Hamilton, merely to give
to Gov. Hamilton and his friends the dis
pensing of the patronage of the public
services controlled by the Eoard of Public
Works and this in the face of the earnest
protest of those pecuniarily interested in
those enterprises This is the question
invoked in the election of Comptroller,
and this is The question upon which the
verdict OF The Democratic masses will be
involved in the Stae convention to Assem-
be on the 23rd of this mcnth Can there
be any doubt of what the verdict viii be :

Notes ON Live Stock in Winter.

Notes on Live STOCK In WINTER.
The farm animals at this season are
directly dependent upon the care and
attention of the farmer. To pass the
winter with profit they must be well
kept. Animals are very complicated
engines, and must be run by careful en-
gineers. The food they receive is the
fuel, and the daily rubbing cleaning, ETC.,
may be likened to the inspection, clean
ing and oiling of the engine. The fuel
must be equal to'the demands made of
the animal engine, else the machinery
will be run at disadvantage, and there
fore with diminished profit. When the
water is low and the fire almost out, the
engine is source of loss to the owner.
On the other hand the fire may be brisk,
and the boiler well supplied, but some
screw is loose, or a part rubs another
too closely and the friction thus produ
ced neutralizes much of the force. So
in the animal machine, all the parts
must work harmoniously together. or in
other words there must be perfect health
to obtain the best results. An animal
may have the best of food in sufficient
quantity, and still pass a hard winter.
and without profit to its owner. Food
of the best kinds without shelter, is in
the animal economy like fuel in an en-
gine that is rusty and loose and out of
order. Both are expensive methods of
arriving at desired results. 1t takes too
much force to run the machine i'm both
cases. As it IS cheaper to have a good
engine kept in good order, so it is to
have an animal in health and comfort.
The thoughtful farmer will see many
other points of likeness between the an
imal machine and the one constructed
by human hands, but this is enough to
suggest the importance of keeping. farm
animals in bealthful and comfortable
by means of warm stables
with clean floors and pure air.-Ameri-
can AgriculLurist for December.
