CUA Ji VILLt tOl'STV. Correspondence of Tnx Observer. Oxford, August 2, 1878. Messrs. Editors: The election here yesterday was fraught with marked inter est and enthusiasm. Uld men and young men. could be seen all over tbe county shoulder to shoulder laboring faithfully for the freedom of their county from the oppressions of Radicalism, which have so long been burdensome in the extreme, and thank3 to a kind providence their labors were not in vain. We have sufficient re turns to state that the Sheriff (who is also' Treasurer) and Superior Court Clerk are are surely elected by an overwhelming majority, and the general impression is that the whole Democratic ticket is elected by from 300 to 1,000 majority. This is glorious news from a county that has Lerctofore gone Radical by so large a majority. Our people are wild with en thusiasm. The Rads are a sick looking set of fellows, and on yesterday evening when the court-house bell sounded the death knell of Radicalism, some of the poor devils were actually seen crying. Hastily yours, ' T. L. Rare Pkesesce of Mind. A gentle man at Scarboro, after waving his nana -1 kerchief for half an hour at an unKnown lady whom be discovered at a distant point on the shore, was encouraged by a warm response to his signal to approach his charmer. Imagine bis feelings when, on drawing nearer, he saw it was his own dear wife, whom be had left at tbe hotel but a short time before. "Why, how re markable that we should have recognized each other at such a distance 1" exclaimed both in the same breath, and then they changedthe subject. --Newburyport (Mass.) Herald. E.vityig the Citiks. The hard times have had one good effect, which should have been produced long ago the removal of a great many people from the towns and cities, always overcrowded, to the broad, unoccupied lands of the far West. The sales of lands by the Government and the railways in that region have been much larger during the last year than for many years previous. In Dakota alone tbe Government sold, last ear, over 800,000 acres, seven times as much as the previous year. In Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado,;' the sales have been remarkably heavy both - by Government and railways. It is estimated that 6,000,000 to 6,000,000 more acres have - been, dis posed of there in tbe past than in the preceding twelve months, and the de mand for land continues 'active. When the hosts of unemployed laborers who cling to the cities, despite their enforced idleness, shall have gone to tilling the soil, one of the serious troubles of tbe day will have been naturally and permanently ad justed. Necessity teaches what argument and illustration never can. Political econ omists and newspaper scribes might advise the poor and unemployed to go West until they had grown gray, and all to no pur pose. Four or five years of non occupa tion and need have set tbe tide of human ity flowing in that most wholesome and desirable direction. iVew York Times. Ninsveh and Babtlos.
