A poetical Candidate.

| little while ago it looked as II Iron
+ county wOnld go ilnrepresented in the Leg
isiatiIre this year; there was singular back.
wardness on the. part Of political aspirants
In coming forward. Then Mr. Charles Hart,
| of Annapolis, offered to serve the county,
and, having no one to contend with, sat un-
der his vine and fig tree, looking out with
equanimity upon the canvass Of the candi-
dates for the other Offices. But the friends
OF Mr.. I. @. Foley, of Belleview, induced
that gentleman to enter the field for Repre-
sentative, and II was Immediately discovered
that there was to be no walk.over for the
Office, And now, to complicate matters,
comes Mr.. William T. Croker, OF the West
End, who h at once farmer, preacher and
poet, aud proposes to- enter the ace upon
the wings Of the. muses.. as the following
verses from his pen will attest:
Wake up. my boys, and cry aloud!
Look to the west--there IL a cloud;
Although they say It means no harm,
Yet I'm looking for an awful Storm.
Sometimes rise above the wave, =.
And then dig my county's grave;
But just before get the shroud, Z.
The doctors voice cries very loud:
II know my patients very sick,
But he'll give Foley and Hart kick.
And send them where they ought to be,
And give the country Croker tea" 1
IT'S Croker and his voters true,
A.going to see what they can do,
And, II In this they do succeed,
Il better time they'll have indeed.
But now judge; from what's been said.
They thought this glorious weed was dead;'-
But then there came season rain,
And this weed sprang into life again.
Come, voters, now throw on your weight,
For nOw's your time to raise your stake; |
For Crocker is the very man
TO reduce taxation in our land. Il

PILOT KNOB AHEAD.-The large number
of cases recently tried by Judge Dinger
seems to have excited the emulation OF
Judge Hancock, who on Friday succeeded in
dispOsing OF no less than eight cases. Geo.
Spi:zmiller, for disturbing the peace, was
fined s. and costs in each OF two cases.
Henry Slater was up for fourishing revolt
yer at and disturbing the peace Of bis uncle,
Henry Richter; assessed the costs in one case
and - and costs in the other. Then came a
series Of cross-ctlt cases in which the facts
were about as follows: Mrs. Elizabeth Hart
is a woman who Is given to letting her
tongue run loose. On this account Ill -feeling
sprang up between her and Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry Richter, which resulted in a bandying
Of epithets between the latter and Mrs. Hart,
and the swearing out Of cross-warrants
for breach of the peace. The Kichters
were fined So and Mrs. Hart So and costs.
G. w. Thompson was "friend" OF Mrs.
Hart, though he has since married her, and
he took occasion to make remarks about Mrs.
Richter and her sou, Charles F. Martin,
which ended in disturbance. for which
Thompson was arrested and fined 8 and
costs. Pilot Knob is now ahead.
