A Good Showing for Union.

Union Iid not contribute \ boarder to the
penitentiary from the last court, and the num-
Der of cases sent TO the Grand Jury by the Sol.
c'tor and tried during the term were very
hoticeabl less than for years.
This is most gratifying. because sure, indi
caticn of the peace and harmony that exists
among oil classes of citizens in this County
And this most agreeable condition of affairs will
continue rs long as the evil passions and pre-
JUDGES OF our people are not excited by inHama
tory harangucs of ofpolitioal demagagues and
othceseekers from other Counties and States.
We have few restless spirits in the County
who would be willing to see the present good
feeling between the races destroyed, under the
belief that in the disturbance il must create
they could rise to the top and secure official
positions for themselves and friends. Such meu. g.
however, are few in number, have always be-
longed to the republican party, and their inilu-
ence Is very limited. If left to their own wishes
and inclinaticns, we believe majority of the
colored voters in this County would vote the
democratic ticket, for they acknowledge they
have been more prosperous, enjoye1 all the
political privileges and lived in greater peace
and security under democratic government
than they did under Il radical government, CON
trolcd as it was and must be III this State by
irresponsible. ignorant and corrupt men.
