 passionate admirer of nature, and the endless variety of her scenery, even frem my boyhood up, have ever sought her often to the total neglect of more important duties.- was in one of those moods when Coke, Blackstone. and Chitty, are but dead weights upon mind enervated and dull from an ex- elusive perusal Ofthem,-and giving them no- tice to quit.-I salIied forth for rambIe upon one of the neighbOring hills, to see the sun set. l love to stand upon some height, even at mid-day-to see vast carpet, spread out below me, with its ground work of velvet green grass-its flowers, the varied colours of many fields of grain-besprinkled here and tkere with tufts of woodland; and if per- chance some gentle river, with its mirrored surface, or even gurgling brook. should be kind enough to come within my view, it makes me happier. But when the gaudy heavens betoken setting sun-O.i it is deli cious. It happened at this time to be just such sun set as most wished to look up- on'-my mind was in state too passive for the sublime-but the beoutitiIit could appre- ciate. It was not one of those sublime, ma jestic appearances of the heavens-when en- battled clouds, whose fiery glare. like moun- tain of molten iron, terrifes as well as tires {: mo, it was that soft, soul pleasing symmetry of rolling vapour, upon which the eye loves to dwell.

From the Hartford Times.


 In pursuance of a Resolution of the General Re. publican Convention at Hartford in May last, the Committee for the County of Litchfed have reques- ted the "Democratic Republican Electors" of the several towns in that County to meet in their respec- tive towns Thursday, the seventh day of February, 1928, at o'clock, P. M. for the purpose of eecting many Delegates they are entitled to Represent atives in the General Assembly. to attend Repubi- can County Convention at the house of Mir Eben N Thompson, in Goshen, on Monday, the eleventh day of February, 1928, at o'clock, P. M. to nominate candidate for Senator the ensuing political year.
 [The Resolution of the Legislative Caucus above referred to is in these words ; Resolved That this Conventcn designate standing Committee, to con- sst ot three from county, and it shall be the duty of said Committee to call on the Republicans of the several towns III the County, in which they reside, meet,' &c. This is rather liberal upon the whole and we wish the Injunction had been obeyed with a little more literal exactness, instead of prefxing to the word" Repub,ican" that exclusive epithet which is intended to cut off from all participation in the business great majority of the freemen-Toera- tonists and all. The Committees of the other coun- ties have not made ofthis phrase in their several notices; but have extended their call to Republicans meaning thereby, we presume, all the freemen with out distinction, since all are republicans, and have an equal right to nominate candidates we'll as elect them to office. We marvel that the committee for this county thought it best to depart from this well known correct course,-tfey can gain nothing by it, and they may loose much

Perhaps the constitution allows such things but common sease does not.

 Two or three days have also been occupied in de- bate upon resolution offered by mr. Sloane, ofOho, authorizing an enquiry into the of the execution of six militia men, at Mobile, during the late war, by | order of Gen. Jackson. There was quite struggle on the part of some of the Hero's most zeaous SUD- porters, prevent full disclosure of the facts in re- gard to this illegal execution. It is to be sure rather
 late day to investigate this matter; but it should be remembered that the papers relative it were not of ficialy accepted by Mr. Madison. and of course the House could not at that time enquire into the business and that it is only within about year that this grea national sin has been fairly brought before the people deed was patriotic the part of Gen. Jackson as is claimed by his friends he will suffer no wrong by an investigation, as majority of the House are h
 procssed friends. lift was wanton act of arbitrar, power many believe, for the honour of the nation it ought be investigated, and the guilt be fixed upor the proper persons. In another column will be found the resolution adopted, relative to this subject.

The Miners Journal. published Schuylkill county Penn. states that Governor Shulze cannot beAspared' from that State for: the Vice Presidency; and observes |" if his name as Vice President were connected with that of MT. EAdams, ion thee Presidential Ticket, there is no doubt that ticket would succeed m Pennsylvania by a large majority. The cause of the Administration, however, requires no such extraneOuss ald. & Judging from the present aspect of things, we are firmly of the opinion, that Mr. Adams will ultimately re- ! celve the vote of Pennsylvania"
 The Baltimores IF PatriotFsays, "a gentleman { of Virginia assures us that should it be clear ly understood that MT. Crawford would ac- cept the Vice Presidency. Virginia would not hesitate moment in giving him her vote. That he will accept. if elected, we know to be fact, and this will be generally known be- fore long," , MT. EditOr---I have not seen your paper this afternoon, and therefore, do not know whether you have published Clay's long ad- dress or nOt-nor do care. You, suppose, will pronounce it to be complete and unde- n'able retutation of the charges of corruption and coalition. Now, sir, anna; Jacksonian, and am determined to support Old Hickory, let what will take place. You. perhaps. may ask me, how can get over what La Fayette -the twenty members of Congress- -Buchan- an, and others say! Why easily enough, sir. La Fayette is not man of truth.~ These 20 members of Congress have all been bribed by Adams or Clay. And as for Buchanan, he had either forgot all he knew, or he has also been bribed. Now, think have explained 1 the whole matter. And you think must now ! agree with me, that Gen. Jackson is the only honest man we have fit for President. So Hurra for Old Hickory! Down with Adams and Clay and all the members of the corrupt Coalition !!-N. Y. Spec.
