On last Thursday Nov. the 25th,
Thanksgiving Day, VIC were kindly
remembered by our friends in Cen
tral; not only Prcsbytelians, but Bap.
tist and Methodist, by way of n pound.
ing, but very few restricted them
selves to one pound but gave fr"ely
in -four, rice, coffee, tea, sugar, buttor,
fresh meat, poultry and some very
necessary utensils for kitchen use; al.
so one friend gave n pound of money.
All such tokens of regard are most
highly appreciated by the recipients,
and for which the donors will accept
our sincere thnnks. We ministers who
have such churches as I have would
not object to Cleveland appointing
more than one day in the year for
Thanksgiving. A. p. N1cHoLsoN.

who VIII Hsr Nudge

This question will be decided by
the General Assembly in q fow days.
The gentlemon prominently brought
forward for the position arc Col. j J
Norton, Of Walhalla, Capt. W. II.
Parker, of Abbcvillo, Maj q. r..
Whitner, Of Anderson, Col. Donald
son, of Greonvillo, and Mr., Ellis
&. Graydon, of Ahbovillo, oil Of
whom are good lawyers. and would
without doubt, make good Judges.
The first question of course 10 fit
nesS. So for as this is concerned the
most ardent admirers and supporters
Of any Of the other candidates, will
at once concede that Col. Norton is
the peer Of any. Many years Of sue
oessful practice, having devoted all
his time and attention to the study
Of the one profession, and o most
psinstaking seeker after right, for
rights sako-~not merely to get the
victory over an opponont--show that
he possesses in a very high degree,
those qualities which are indespensa.
bly, necessary to qualify man for the
important Office to which he aspires.
la the next place he is a ono.armed
confederate soldier, the history of
whose life has alike been characteriz-
ed by sincere and unfaltering devo.
ton to the cause Of his country, and
to tho interest Of tho democracy
Agein, he comes from q county
which haa been quite, If not entirely
overlooked, in the distribution of |
honors and enoluments since 76,while
she counties from which the other
candidates come have been abundant
" remembered.
These considerations, it seems to
ag, without many others which
might be urged, should be sufficient
to make Col. D ). Norton Judge Of
as Eghth Circuit
