The Democratic Judicial Convention will be held at Mitchell, on Tuesday, June 3rd. The easiest war out of a bad predicament would be the endorsement by the convention of Jos. E. Henley, who will be nominated at the Repulvlican Judicial Convention, and will be triumphantly elected in November. : h The Republican National Convention will consist of 820 delegates. Of these tba Southern States will have 300; the Northern States, 502; the Territories and
District of Columbia, 18. The
geographical divisions of tho north
will be represented as follows : New England, 76 delegates; Middle
States, 156; Western States, 270.
It will require 411 votes to nomin
ate. The delegates generally wiii goto Chicago uninstrorted. The
moat notable exceptions to this role are in Pennsylvania, where machine
methods obtained. The sentiment
of the party at large favors conser
vatism and an administrative pol
icy based on practical business
principles. This opinion isNnot bounded by sectional lines ; it prevails universally ; and there is ev
ery reason to believe that the nom
inee for President will be the best
exponent of that sentiment in oth
er words, the choice of the intelli

iloo. Wra. F. Browning paid a . tender tribute to his old friend and associate. He said, in suLetance: la the Tear 1838 I made the acquaint, a ace of Governor Oonniag in this town, la the winter of '33 and '39 I began my public career, I may say, in this eeatt boose. I hare known toe Governor intimately erer since, sad I can repeat the laagmage ef Mr. Abel, "be has ever been my friend a friend when I needed a fried." I never shall forget the 34tb day ef Angtut, 1844. That was indeed a memorable occasion with me. There are not many in this bouse vho remember that day aad what occurred. I see Mr. Abel and Mr. Felix Dunn, and Aqailla Rogers, and 'Squire Boseberry here, aad these gentlemen may remember it. I had been unfortunate enough to hwe a brother. The Circuit Judge and bis associates, after I bad been are long years trying to leara something of the duties of the office of data: ef tha eircait eoatt, cave asa the appointment to serve out the unexpired term of my deceaxed brother. 0ome of yon know, especially the members of the bar, that the term under the old constitution was sevea years. This appointment waa tendered by the court in tha east ream of that iiMle brick buildingstanding out there where the clerk's oBwe was then Kept. I hrfd spent ae years ef toil in that little roam. The time came for me to execute a bond in tha penal sum of $!9,eoo. I was young, penaiiesa, hot not friendless, for Got. Dunning not then . Governor came to me and as id, "William, yon racst give bond ; I will write it for you ; I will a it as ana of your sa relief, and I win get the others to sign h." l ast jmt certain but Mr. Abel there was on that bond. I think le was. And why shouldn't I remember Governor Dunniag with grateful deXgbt." Greencastle Banner: Ex-Sen alec George G. Wright, ef lows, brother of the late Governor Joseph A. Wright, of this State, visited Indianapolis last Week, and while there raid that there waa a strong undercurrent aB over tha Northwest for Arthur among the business nun, tad he weuhi not be surprised if it be aaad manifest in 'lie National tJtnvun-

supply of good advice with reference to the traveling sharper. Some of the advice given is equally
applicable to town and city folk as about this seasoQ each year the oily-tongned peddler begins to ply bis cheerful avocation among the
native suckers, and in spite of
newspaper warnings the "smart" ones who have a wholesome contempt for "them literary fellars'
and "book larnia'" in general find themselves ill tht toils. Then
with frontispieces as long as the' moral law, they drop iuto the edi
tor s sanctum and tell long-winded narratives of their woes, and ask tba acMmmodating penoil driver
fta-opocTCttt tha vials of hie wrath
upon the scoundrels who have played them Wflats" of the rankest type. Such is the tiresome experience year in and year out, and though admonished aunually to refuse to have any intercourse with traveling peddlers, yet the brilliant sparks of genius, confident of their ability to out-trade any son-of agnn moving at large with childlike innocence that is positively refreshing, caltny thrust their fingers in the fire, get them ringed, and then retire with a liberal aupply of valuable experience. The cloth peddler is generally the first abarp to make the grand rounds. He strikes the crop of greenies and stays wiih them until he has bled them for all they aie worth, when be gracefully retires, and gives place to the man with the patent plow who is anxious to sell territory. He makes his cast, his victims bite bard and subsequent to. disposing of his choice csUeefioa of autographs to local bank at a fair discount, the plow swindler folds bis tent like the Arab, takes an excursion and invests the proceeds of his little "spree" in a block of government bunds, or Chicago real estate. Next tha lightning' rod agent and the patent roof paint man tune their merry lay, temper cheeks to the-required firmness, and start out for a summer tour of the provinces. They throw out their nets, possibly wait for the fish to float into them and when they have caught a satisfactory attrafser in the meshes they decamp to sttuny Italy, or go on o pilgrimage t thf Holy Land.
The Morrison Bill. Interviews with prominet Jndianiana Senator Harmon, Ex-Secretary Thompson and Governor Porta: Senator Harrison, in speaking of the defeat of the Morrison bill, says that agitation of the tariff will
probably end now in this Congress.
and that an early adjournment will
be urged by Democrats opposed to
the bill. He thinks the quarrels between the two wings of the Democracy will now be intensified,
and will be waged with increased
bitterness, lhe Morrison bill is meaningless, and not at all credit
able to its author. Such a reduction as the bill contemplated suggested a want of statesmannhip a
lack of tavmr faire with so impor
tant a measure.
The neglect to take up the tariff,
and consider each article included
in it intelligently or upon its merits, was a virtual confession that
the author had neither time, ability, or unity of purpose sufficient to
cope with the matter. The Senator
thinka that the quarrel will now go
into the National Convention at Chicago, where the free-trade Democrats will demand' a free-trade
platok, and the protectionists refuse
it ; ana as me iree-iinaers are me stronger, they will force their
point, and brine the issna before
the country, just as the Repnbli
cans desire it. The failure of the
bill demonstrates to the people
that they must look to the Repub
lican party for the proper sort of
reforms in the revenue system. It
is the only party that has the cour
age of its convictions, and sufficient
ability to deal with a question of
so great a moment. GOVERNOR PORTER. The Govenor says that the im
presrion made upon the country by
the defeat ot the Morrison bill is that the Democratic party has no convictions, and therefore can not he trusted to take control of the Government. COLONEL SICK THOMPSOX gives it as his opinion decidedly that the failure of the bill would result in the disruption of the Democratic party. In the south are many Democrats who had adhered to the party faith from a sentiment, bnt since the change in labor conditions there and the building tip of its industries all over that section those men bad come to be imbued with practical ideas rather than sentiment, and this tendency would be increased and developed by this very pronounced division in the party in Congress. The defeat of the Morrison bill would not take the issue of the tariff out of politics. It would be more definite and decisive, giving the Republican party the benefit of having been on the right side and the successful side. A copy of tht Savannah Her-
! aid comes to light, bearing date of
November 10, 1864, in which the
prices of staples are quoted : Flour per Imrrel, 9700; cooking soda per pound, $25; tea per pound, S 175; sperm candles per pound, (60; brandy per quart, $175 ; per drink, $10; corn whisky per drink, $5;
apple brandy per drink, $5 ; eggs
tier dozen, $10 to $12; ten-cent box of blacking, $20; Confederate made lager beer per drink, $3; ham and eggs, $10. For clothing
a coat cost $2,000; pantaloons
$200; vest $Z0O, and boots $400.
Judge Francis Wilson, in his
charge to the grand jury of Martin
county, recently, said among other
thiugs : The ballot box is to us the "Ark of the Covenant." And upon it should never be laid any profane or corrupt hand. As of old the Eenally was death to all profane ands who touched the Ark, so now let an indignant people smite with political death all who pollute the ballot box the Ark of our Co venanf . If i I costs a roan ai I that an office is worth to get it, you may be sure that in some way d-apects to steal enough to make up what the office cost him.
Hen Who Do Not DrlnK to
Excess. Philadelphia Record. The Jews are not abstainers from
strong drink. They use wine for the good thing it is, not for the devilish thing it is when the reas
on becomes drowned in it. They seldom drink to excess or become drunkards. In this respect they set an example of temperance and self-restraint which is a wonderful tribute to the value of their moral training. If they would teach us the secret of their ability to keep the straight path between abstinence and indulgence, it would be better than all the pledges and penal enactments by which ws undertake to deal with a matter that is bejond the reach of the law.

Lace and bends on dresses and mantles still hold their own. Herer were tha nrettv enmmar silks
sold as cheaply as this year.
Bonnets made entirely of scarlet materials are very frequently seen. Gold is mixed in many of the new summer dresses, wraps and bonnets. Slate gray and copper color combine admirably in brocades and fn millinery. "White drew s look better than anything else on yoang ladies at the seaside resorts. Meat summer dresses art made entirely ef canvass like that used for curtains and embroidered with bright colors in Kensington stitch. India shawls of the kind imported thirty or forty years ago are coming into fashion again, and becawe they are sesree, can never be common. They are wholly unlike tbe shawls wore by milady nowadays. Heaviest and board-like black silks are to be the most fashionable, and, although they are expensire by the yard, they are guaranteed to 'Mast forever." Summer traveling cloaks are made in ulster or Newmarket shape, or in loose Mother Hubbard style ef mohair, pongee, silk or linen. Graceful trareling wraps
are also ssen in soft checked wools, aad in mixed Cheviot cloth. New silk neckerchiefs ar shown Urge enough to cover tba shoulders and arrange in front in Quaker faihion. They are made in white China silk, embroidered with clover blossoms, or of silver gray pongee am'broidered with May roses.
It Is said that ladies, appreciating the allurine effect of stndine collars, have

aunng wm cowing iviuuu . m nn uvr, mm of linen, they will be worn close to the
throat, attached at times with a single
cyclopean thread, or with a scarf-pin and
white cambric nana. Jersey jackets are shown in stylish mushroom, brown, beige and brown and
amber shades aad tha metallic gray hues of tbe season. These jackets are trimmed with heavy leviathan braid put on in
straight rows, or in geometric terms. There are also jackets ef fine trirot cloth,
which are single-breasted, and made in
tailor style, nnlihed with silt pocxeli ana plain edges. 8UXMER WOOI. DRESSES.
Sheer woolens of flannel finish,
yet not heavier than bunting, are
imported for mountain or sea-side
dresses, with white grounds strip
ed with black, blue or red, or
with ecru striped with brown,
or pale gray with darker gray,
For the waist and skirt the stripes
are verv narrow, wbils some
breadths for drapery, for vest, and
for flounces are made with inchwide stripes. These are made up
with the single-breasted Norfolk
belled jacket so long in favor, but which is now more popular than ever, with its pretty revers or
notched collar like that of a man's
coat, turned away to show a collar
and chemisette of hnen ornamented
with embroidery, or else tnere is plain linen standing collar with a
flatly folded scarf precisely like
those worn by gentlemen; The
apron over-skirt and the pleated
lower skirt so lone in vogue are
used for theae light woolens, or, tor
tall figures, the skirt is tucked nearly to the belt in front and on
the sides, and there is a short hip
drapery with long black breadths falling to the foot. The ecru and gray mohair and alpaca dresses imported by the
most fashionable modistes for city
street suits - and for traveling are
made up in tailor styles and trim
med with Hercules braid. Five broad bands of brown braid are placed between not on the three
h: uaJ- ooX pleats that form panels
on the trout and sides or aa ecru mohair skirt. The vest, which closes at the sides, is similarly banded with braid. There is also a renewed tancy for bordering the foot
ot wool dressses with fifteen or twenty rows of soutache laid over a cashmere band of a contrasting color, as brown braid op ecru cashmere for a brown skirt, and blue braid on a red ground for a blue skirt. For trimming dark gray or brown bison-cltiths sod cashmeres the mixed wool and metallic braids are used, partly of gilt or partly of silver, for striping the velvet vest and .for heading the broad band of velvet that trims the skirt. Still another fancy is that of edging kilt pleats of dark wools with a line of soutache braid extending down each pleat ; this is also seen in cotton braids on wash-dresses of solid-colored gingham or of satteen or Chambery. Very dressy suits of white Cheviot or of flannel decorated with pale blue and rose borders cut out of velvet in arabesque or diamond or leaf patterns. Other ecru or wliite flannels have three large box-pleated panels on the skirt, with the entire spaces between filled in with navy blue or with scarlet soutache is crosswise rows ; the vest is in Breton style that is, in one piece, fastening on tbe side and is neatly covered bv rows of braid. L1QUT SILK DRESSES. The light weight of foulard and India silk dresses for midsummer is one of their coroniendstisms, and
their dainty eolofiujs is another.
They are made up over the thin lining silks that are now bought for 60 or 70 cents a yard, and these usually have some ecru or white lace flounces across the foot ; the lining may be of salmon, pale green, faded pink, or light blue, bnt is never of a deep or obtrusive shade. Above this the basque and the most capricious drapery which is, however, nothing if not bouffant may be of foulard with an all-over design of Oriential
cashmere colors, or else of glace
silk in changeable rose with olive,
or golden brown with blue, printed
with truit brandies or flowers in
these colors, or with little Greek
squares or blocks of velvet of some
dark shade, lhe golden apples ot
the Hesperides droop on boughs of
olive foliage, ripe strawberries are on a pale green ground, and pink
roses and white daisies are on tbe lightest sky blue silks that are
changeable with pink or with
white, lhe new Cheviot silks of
American manufacture are made in the designs of wool Cheviots,
and are offered for traveling dress
es, but the colors are too light for this purpose, hence they are being
ueed for the pleated skirts of cash
meres and bison-cloth costumes, or with an overdress of silk surah or
of pongee. Checked silks are also
greatly reduced in price since the changeable silks superceded them
in tavor, and now make inexpen
sive lower skirts for summer wool
suits : few entire dresses are made of such silks. In foulards and
surahs those with silk finish are
now more stylish than the lustrous
satin surfaces.

Sawdust in Plastkhixq. Two
Western inventors have recently
obtained patents for the use of saw
dust instead of sand in plastering
compositions, and this, it is eon
ceived, may be a matter of con
siderable importance to owners of sawmills in the principal lumber
ing towns, une or the patents is
for the use of nearly equal parts of
plaster of fans or cement and saw
dust, with the ordinary amount of
plastering hair and water; the other calls for about 4 J each of slaked
lime aad lime and sawdust to pound ot plaster of Paris, a quar
ter oi a pound ot glue, and a six
teenth of a pound of glycerine, with
plasterer's hair. Whether or not
either of these described plasters
would be cheaper than those made
in the ordinary way, they would
certainly be lighter, and it is be
lieved would better adhere to the
walls, and not be so liable to chip, scale and crack. Sifted sawdust
has before been used to some cx
tent by exiwneucfd workmen for mixing with mortar for plastering external walls, extosed to the alternate action of water and frost,
as a preventive of scaling. Cer tainly the experiment of introdu
cing sawdust in place of sand in
mortar is worth trying, for in many places sharp sand suitable 'or the
purpose is difucult to obtain.

Abase vs. Argument. Mt. Vernon Banner: Occasion
ally vou will find a blackguard eu-
gsged in the newspaper business,
who imagines that tbe proper way
to make a reputation for himsslf is
to abuse every man who dmess with him politically, or whose views on
ordinary matters do not coincide
with those entertained by himself.
When it becomes dangerous to incur
the displeasure of one ot these individuals for fear he may abuse you th rough his newspaper, it is also growing dangerous for him. Human patience cannot endure forever, and it ought not to.
