Watson, of Town, Will Again Scclc Seimtoilnl Honors, Sometime ago wo mado mention that many leading Democrats in this district had pre vailed upon ex-Senator M. O. Watson, of town, to allow tho uso of his naiuo in con nection with tho Democratic nomination for Senator. Mr. Watson has givon tho matter mature deliberation, and has Anally con sented to acccdo to tho wishes of the party leaders and a largo number of voters to be como a candidate for tho position ho so ably filled sovcral years ago. Mr. Watson is no stranger to tho voters of tho Thirtieth district, aud as their represen tative in the State Sonato mado a record to which ho can point with pride. Although a lilo-long Democrat, ho is liberal ill his views and has almost as many personal and po litical friends in tho ranks of the Kcpublican party as he has in tho ouo ho has always alllliated with. This is nude plain from the comment mado upon his candidacy. Thoro is vory little doubt but that ho will receive tho Democratic nomination with ap parently no opposition. Should thu party full to take advantage of so popular a nomi nation, tlieio is a well defined igovenicnt among Republican leaders to uomiuato .Mr. Watson ou tho Republican ticket, and his election would bo n foregone conclusion. This would certainly bo "stealing tho cnemy'B thunder." Tho Democratic convention will bo hold first, and tho Republicans will havo tho advantago of profiting by a niistako of this kind on tho part of tho Democracy. It is not at all probable, however, that the Democrats will give their opponents this op portunity. Tho sentiment in favor of Mr. Watson is already cristalizing to such an ex tent that insures Ills nomination by his own party on July 12. 'Without regard to political atllliatious, it is iieely acknowledged that this district has never been repres" nted in so ablo a manner since Mr. Watson Nit in the Senate chamber.

The poor, tho rich, tho banker, tho derk, tho merchant, tho laboring man, and ladios generally buy this medicine, and I have yet to hear of a single pcison who has not been pleased with tho results, Everybody praises it, and it seems to bo a grand tonic for thoso who nre troubled with tho languid, llred feeling that so generally allllcts people during tho sprlig months." Mr. Waslcy, continuing, said : "I am satis fled that the largo advertising being dono in tho Hcrai.1) for Paino'-i celery compound has been of great assistanco in this section in in creasing the sales of this medicine. Judicious advertising always pays aud Wells, Richard son & Co., tho proprietors of Palno's celery compound, certainly know the papers that will give tlio best returns from advertising."
