Republican Radical and Mongrel Court iy convention." Brookvulk, A r-nn, 21, tC3. Editor Amtr Am, -Under the caption of 4,Kepublicat Radical and Mongrel County Convention! there appeared . an articlo in the trnnklU Democrat of April 17th, 1SG3, purporting to bo a descriptiou of tho Union Convention held at the Court House on tho llth day of April, 1SC3. The article In queation covered nearly one-half of the seoond pe of. tho MBecord of the Unterrtfiod," and was a truly pitiful and labored attempt at eloquence and wit. In visw of tho f-ct that there was a dearth of tho former and an utter absence of anything laughable If) if, we feel it our duty to xpreae our kindest sympathy for the unfurl una to writer. The very title ia a blunder, or. rather, a "truth told unconsciously" concerning the Copperheads in attendance. Tho writer admit that we were a "Republican ConTontioo," and we seeing none of the canine or African species present infer lliat the word ''Mongrel'' waa applied to bis lloruooratio frieudi pro-nnt. ' Aa a specimen of Democratio veracity, it is unimpeached and uuimpoachable, i;or is its un-grsmmatical contraction less to mark able and doner ing of note!' The writer says of President Burton: "On taking tho chair. he said tiiar, so far as our knowledge exieudx, and not wishing to do him tujustice, we give his txact language." Tho ttnte, in the above remarkable ffl'uiion, is hardly a intelligible aa oauld be desired not, indeed, as clear as the Nonsense. If the writer mean that be could not nppttciate the remarks of Major Burton, then it is a specimen of Domoctutio frank neaa seldom met with. We are truly sorry fur him, and if his friends desiro it, will do all in our power to aocuro him a comfortable home in ono of the chiritable inttitutions" of our State, where he will not be compelled to listen to sensible speeches, nor bu obliged to confess that knowledge" dues not extend sufficiently fir" to enable him to interpret a lew plaiu, common-sense remaiks. But by the expression ued, ho perhsr s meaus to couftss that his situation at the time was not auch aa admitted of a display of extensive 'knowledge." This is the most reasonable view of tho ease, made j more plausible by the "rosy hue' upen i nc auspeeieu tuuiviuuai n pnii wiuie iiiuusliicusty taking notes of the proceedings, us well as by tho excited and incoherent manner in which be replied to fiustions asked by his brother "Mongrels," as he calls them. It may be, however, that, in tho wild ravings of bia unbridled imsgiiiation, he meaus to say Major Burton said nothing. when ho took hit teat as Chairman of the Convention. True, he contradicts that statement in the tarnt mlmcr; but that proves nothing. Democratic principles and platforms are made up of contiadictious, inconsistcacies and bad whisky, and the writer was only following the example of "Brcthtri goo before," when he writes in that style. We suspect that he was pretty full of the above "plat form at the time, and, like all other per itolia ! fUUipuUM, luut-t Hot, I'M held rO 1 sponsible lor the matters ana things he has a . a a I t li loyen to write. In tho same paragraph be promises us the Mnjor's "exact languigo,'' but it is not furthcoming. History is silent as to the reason of this little discrepancy, but tradition says a solution to the problem may be found in tho fact that several Democratic "watering places'' were iu proximity to the scene of our hero's exploits, and that as genius even will flag ut times, and the most gigantic intellect succumb to bodily infirmities, it is but reasonable to suppose that (be sunny disposition of the writer, added to causes sucU as above, induced biui about that time to "smile. " But seriou.ly. We defy any one or hi friends to explain what idea is wishcJ to b conveyed in the words quoted. We even doubt if tbe Ihely (?) aud viv uiou- (?) writer himself now thitthe ink has bo come cold, and be, it is horoi, sober can tell us, with all the skill be has attained in decypbering secret alphabets, euigmus, &?., fostered, doubtless, by experience in the organization once known as tho "K. G. C," which, like Democracy, is "Xutolertd with the tbhgj that wer," can tell us, in plain Kogliah, just what bo di ' - c ').' kq most pass to ' new and ci. beauties." The next outrage upon common sent-e and tho art of writing intelligibly, is perpetrated in the fourth paragraph, und aller tbe following manner: "On motion of u certain pill j edler who bent himself for tha Legislature in 1811," Sic. iiQ. Here again wo are at a loss. The writer fails to inform us on what day of the month and at what place the "pill pcdlcr" aforesaid "beat himself." Neither doc he tell us what kind of an instru 11: e nt wax used in inflicting thi punish 111 e 11 1. In writing descriptions of accidcuts, euiciden, itc, it in customary to give all the particulars; but in thia ca-e, a iicws-ioving public is left iu the dark aa to one of the oddest things on record, viz: a man beating himself for the gratification and amui-cment of a Legislature! c hope the writer will not serve ua tuch another jade's tiick." Again, we ask him why ho hasn't produced the journul of the Legislature, and shown the record of this remarkable pro eccJing. If the s atcincnt is true and what Demo:iat ver told anything that was not? whbt Legislature would be rO un graitful an to refuse to record an act done for their rpecial diversion? Why, it would be meannenü in a Dimucrutic Legislature, and that's saying a good deal, when one remembsrs that bodies of that description uro not expected to bo "convocations of the gods." Unices the author produce "the papers," we are afraid that even a Jmociat will think tho dose too "fishy" to be pnlatabie. Tbu next infliction U terrible.

But enough has been written to answer our purpoi-e; enough to show that even Ihmnciatit County newspapers may find "a lower deep.' when their columns are prostituted lo the use of writers of such articles as we have been noticing. Hereafter we here to roan will waate good "kindling paper" io such a way. J L'STITIA. Fr th American. Queer Judicial Doings. Mr. Jiior, Wo Cud in our statute books a law requiring all Bailroad Comiianifcs 4 out K(iiiii mui1ii fuii .Liu. ' - - . j - r the liuc of'their roads. This Jaw is not made so much for the protection of stock running at larga, as it is to protect bnman life. We also find another statute law which provides that all owners, lesccs or assignees Tuaningor having chargo of any Railroad in this State, who shall fail to build and keep up a good and sufficient fence along the lino of their roads, shall be liable to the owner or owners of any animals which may be killed or injured by tbeir rolling stock, whether such injury result from carelessness or unavoidable Occident. Only a nmall portion of the V W, V. Kailroad has leeu fenced. 1 w re-ntat ihe last term of Common I'lcns Vourt of Frunkliu Connty, watchi, case ground through under tho foieg'mg law. The action was first brought before a Justice of the Peuce, tried by a jury, and judgment found for plaintilT fr $7, the value of one hog kill ed by cars of W. W V. Kailroad. I ase was taken up, or lather down, as the e quel will ihovr, on appeal. The Railroad attoruey resorted to all the tactics known to the profession, such as filing frivolous ! demurrers, dilatory picas, ko , which is ca'lcd in Court House special pleading, but in justices' offices pettifogging. The only difference is in the houe. This system of practice seemed to embaira the plaintifl-; but with the aid of a gentleman present w l-o "un Jeistood tho ropca" of ihe Court House, he at length got hi ca-e in Court. The plaintiff demanded a jury, which emburrasscd the attorney for the road, who jumped up very much excited; suid he wanted a change cd venue; sat down; was drawing up an affidavit to sweur his case out of the County, when ihe plaintiff said he had a good case and did not like to follow so small a enso to onother County, but would submit it to the Court.' This teemed to pleaso the defendant. PlaiiitifTcallcd his witnesses and proved that Ihe cars struck the hog, broke its back, aud killed it; that it Was Ins proper ty, and worth seven dollars; that the injury was done in Franklin County; that ihe road was not fenced; that there was no public crossing at the point where the hog was killed. This same wittier Mated that the Uailroad crosses tho tow-path of tho Canal at that point. Next witness stated thai the road forked below where the hog was killed, main road running 011 tow-path and twitch on the other bunk, all the way along; 1.0 street, alley or road or any public crossing short of Ü50 yards from the place whero the hog was found; that tho road was not fenced. Next witness, who was ihe plaintilT, drew a sketch of the road, showing bow it branched below whete the bog was struck, main truck rnnnii g up West bank of tbe old Canal; side track on KjsI bauk; no public crossing of any kind short of -CU yards, which was a street near tie Depot. Court atked this witnoss whit was between tbe two Railroad tracks. Witness answered, water; was old Canal, now a mill race; that the road was not fenced, ihis closed the case. 'J he Judge folded up what was supposed t 1 the notes of evidence, and left tbe I Couit House. Court ttood adjourned j without form. Next morning he gave his : decision, to wit: that the cars killed the j bor. that it was the property of plaintiff. and it was hard from him to lose it; but it appeared there was a (.anal there, and the io4 cio-seJ the tow-path near where tba

hog was killed., lie Would raise a judicial presumption that the Canal was a

highway, and the road crossed the tow - path; that he kticw ' the Canal hid bng since been abandoned as a Canal, but tho plaintiff had failed to prove it abandoned. Now it be could prcsime (he old Carta I a highway and a public crossing, knowing it waa entirely wathed iwsy more than three years ago, could he not also presume that it had been abmdjucd, when, it ap pealed from the evidence of two witnesses that a railroad was built on both its banks snd a mill race occupied ila ted. running all the way along. And bow could be presume a publio crosoing near whete (be injnry was dotie, when three witnrssca testified before him lliat there was no pub lie crowing vl'muy kind sbott of'üoU aid from the place where the l og was killed. But ttttngo as it Djrj spcar, all this evidence, which would have fully met hla judicial 'resumption, is not lound io hi notes of ctidenco. Why was it left oui? Th are prohUma for legal tuinda aa wall aa common honest people to solve. &trau i Kuxe which uay the wind Uoxci When thia suit wasfirat brought bvfoie a justice of the t-ace, the Bailrt ad at. torney was on hand and fought it deeper ately before a jury, but lost, lie appeal. cd lo the IWtiioti l'Jcna Court. , bu.irt iu him refusing pluiniiff a jury in that III II.Hl juries? Are they loo honest, or is it too xpenaivo to chalk all their hats? Free pusses will do for members of the Legislature, or the few who administer the laws. However that may be. tfier ihe defendant had succeeded in getting bis case befote tie Court, he seemed to lone all ititetesi iu it. He reminded tue of a sleepy mem. ber who waa iu (he habit of taking a uap during sermon lime. On one occasion a neighbor punched him; told biui to wake up and listen to the sciruon. II half way opened Ma cCHi sayiug, "Dou't disturb tue; I um s.le; I am not afraid id' the preacher; be can't say anything that will hurt me." Tbe delet.dant did not try to prove anything, not ecn that there'vtos a publio crossing or nnthifg else to justify ihe act. It seemed to be the nil fashioned one tided game wiih him -Heads, I win; tails, you lose." Now the quesii'in may be asked, why publish the proceed ing in thia cae? why not tae an appeal? A.c. 1 answer: First, the amount exclusive of t-t is loo small to get an appeal lo ihe Supieme Court; and last, but not least, the same man is seeking the nomination, aud wauta to be re elected to fill the same cilice another term. Ho haa qualifications. The oflito of Judge, of Common PI a Court is ono f tnoie importance lo the leople generally than perhaps any other Through bis Court passes the business pertaining to the settlement of the estates of every deceased person. Widows, orphans, creditors, aud every person Laving unsettled business with the deceased, are interested in having it legally aud iu.par tiallt settled, so that equal justice will be dono to all.

If be has managed my ease in such a way, will be not do others tbe same under tbo same circumstances? 1 am responsible for the forgoing.

In unmistakable tones tbe people demand the reconstruction of the States on the basis prtseutid by Congress. They are becoming more and more radical every day. Moncio Times. From a card in another column it will be seen that General Tom Rrowne has withdrawn from the Congressional canvass in the Ninth Dinirict, which tecures the nomination of tlcneral Shanks. The card proves (jentral Browne to be a true Re publican and an Kotiorabl gentleman.
