The present Superintendent of Puo-

deserved praise for the earlestness alid
impartiality with which he is dischars-
ing the important duties of his Office.
He is one pebble of value amid the riff
raft washed ON the beach by the fusion
tide. We are hardly prepared, However,
to endorse the suggestion that he be
nominated for reelection by the Demo
Gratis. We believe the party has equally
capable timber from which to make II
selection. The matter might appear diff
ferently if Mr.. Mebane should rcnnuace
fusionGsm and its works before The

Justice Sneed was really a native OF
