—Under the law as it now exists there
is no office in the gift of the people
more important than that of county
commissioner. The people, therefore,
in selecting those officials should select
good clear-headed business men; men
who have abundant capacity to con-
duct their own affairs successfully; men
who will guard the interests of the
people as they would their own; men
who can neither bs Influenced nor in-
timidated to do a wrong act; men who
will discharge their duties under the
law without fear, favor or affection,
and with justice and equity. And
above all let them be men possessing a
high sense of honor. With a court
composed of such men the affairs of
the county will be successfully con-

their peaceful slumbers by. the violent
ringing of the court-house' bell. In a
very short time the streets and public

the lira was. It soon became known
that there was no fire, and that they
had all been sold as the fact, tliat it
was the 1st of April become fully
realized. Every body could see the
joke, but we presume there were more

Ah a treasure lent, not given
Like some Angel strayed from home,
We knew thou woufdst return to Heaven.
Oh empty arms, where her form hath lain
Tis wrong to wish her hack again,
How could you have your darling know
The sorrows of this world below.
Farewell—sleep on, thou sinless one
Our earthly path with thorns is strown
We lay thee in thy narrow bed
And weeping—leave tlioo there alone
There little form, in beauty rest

Editor Journal;
I wish to call the attention of the
commissioners to the LaGrauge and

1st. They should know whether
there is a public road leading from Ua
Grange to Ledbetter, 1st, 2nd or 3rd
class.
2nd. The road should bo recorded

3rd. The road should be cut out to
its proper width.
4th. It should he worked where it is
lqid out to be worked.
I have drove a hack for the last six
months over what they call a public
road, and all the work that has been
done on the Road 1 could do In two
days. If there has been more* work
done I have failed to sec it. There are
several places that need work very
