Mr. Thompson does not nse the same political glasses as the Judge, and therefore can not see all matters in the same light. He is a pronounced democrat and gives very intelligent reasons for being such. A gentleman told us the other day that one of the old adages was, that if it rain on Ascension Thursday it would rain for 30 days in succession. May 21st was Ascension Thursday, and up to date it has rained every day since but one, Thursday of last week. It has not as yet done any great damage in this county except to give the weeds a good start and delayed some few with planting, but we can easily dispense with the most of the rain yet to come, according to the adage referred to.
