In Newton, 1t Will be seen that Col, r..
May was nominated as the candidate of
the republicans of the district. We
trust that the action of the convention
may be final, and that the too common
practice in that district will be Stunned
this year.

We are glad to see that The De Soto
Republican has dropped its unjust at.
tacks upon the county officers of the
county and is heartily supporting the
ticket nominated on the 2Sth. This is
as it should be, and we congratulate Its
editor on his return TO the straight path.
There is no reason why there should be
any thing but harmony in the republican
party in this county.
We hear that on Saturday night last
a party of disguised men went to the
house in Jefferson where Barrett, Ton
bail to answer a charge of bIgamy, was
living in alleged aduiterous intercourse
with Mrs. -, took the two ont of
bed and tarIed and feathered them.
We presume that no one in a calm
state of mind will claim that there was
anything in the circumstances of this
case which can palliate the outrage com.
mitted upon these two persons Barrett
was in the hands of the law, and there
was no reason to suppose that he would
not be dealt with according to his de.
serts. 1t is therefore to be deplored that
any men should feel themselves blame
less enough to take the law into their
own hands in this case Such conduct
is shame tc the county, and utterly in.
excusable
We are under obligation TO the state
press for the kind words said in referring
TO the nomination of the editor of this
paper for state senator from this dis
trict We can not repri1t these notices,
bat we appreciate therl.
Charles Waters, the nurseryman,
wishes the people to understand that
this is the time to buy fruit trees.
The change in the weather, from the
warm, dry days we have had for month
past, is rather agreeable than other
wise Showers of rain have fallen,
which, we trust, extend far enough to
put out the fires in the northern coun.
try.
We learn that John Blair Of Sterling,
has sold his farm to Robert johnson.
