CANDIDATES. 1t seems that temperance
ticket for the legislature has been nominated.
Well, we like temperance, and would vote for
the candidates could they succeed in making
every member Of the legislature join the tenn
portneo causa--5ut, as matters stand, we mean
to stick to the Native American ticket mas
much as those who compose it arc pledged to
certain great principles, which we consider to
be Of the first importance--among them that
Of the reform Of abuscs-and VIC presume that
they will not omit any thing which may be
calculated to improve the moral and social
condition of the people. The temperance
cause can muster Il formidable body Of men;
and truly we wish that their numbers were ten
times what they are--ior we should then have
to record fewer violations of law, and dimi-
nut.on Of the criminal docket.
The people are likely to have good assort-
ment of candidates from whom to make Sc
lection-and we hope that they may choose
those only who will carry out American prin-
ciples, and vote in favor Of such laws as will
decrease the public expenses, and restore the
credit of the state.
EXPENSES OF GovERNMENT. The diminu
ton in the Post Office revenue, and the in
creased expenditures of government in prepa-
rations for war, render it evident that no re-
duction Of the existing tariff can be safely
made at the present timc--we do not, there
fore, apprchcnd, that congress will make any
change, Notwithstanding it may be recon-
mended and pressed by the Secretary of the
Treasury. We shall require all the revenue
which can be raised, to meet expenses; and
we are sure, that the people would prefer the
present mode of obtaining revenue to a resort
to direct taxation.
MoRE hNTI-RENr WARFARE-Rotr among
The La,cycrs. The trial Of Big Thunder the
ant-rent hero, commenced Il few days ago at
Hudson, n. Y, when Attorney Gen, Van Blu
rem, son of the ex-Presideut, and Mr.. Jordan,
counsel for the prisoner, had llare-up, which
ended in both gentlemen being committed to
Jail for contempt. 1t appears that Jordan call
ed Van Buren, liar, upon which the latter
struck the former blow. Jordan returned the
blow with his fist, which hit the Attorney Ge
neral in the back Of his head. They both rose
from their seats, faced each other and exchange
ed blows. This was all done with great rapi-
dity, and Judge Edmonds instantly ordered both
to take their seats, and the Sheriffto have them
committed to jail for contempt of court. Each
of the gentlemen apologlzed for their disgr ace
:hcnt and both were committed to Jail for "a
hours, the Court i'll the mean time adjourned,
as both the prisoner and the people were de-
prived Of their counsel.
CELEBRATION OF THE Twelfth OF SEPrEM-
Der. The 30th anniversary Of the battle of
North Point occurs Oh Friday next, aud will
be celebrated with unusual spirit ard in vari-
Gus modes, for the particulars Of which we re-
fer to our advertising columns. 1t will be seen
that numerous excursions have been projected,
while the attractions in the city will we wor-
thy of attention.
VERMONT ELECTION. On the gubernatorial
ticket there is 4 considerable falling off in the
vote, as compared with the elections of 1914.
We are inclined to think that there is no cleo
ton of Governor by the people. The Legsla-
ture will in all probability be wing in both its
branches.
FIRE IN BRooELYN. A fire broke out about
II o'clock on Saturday night IN the starch fac
tory in Adams-st. near Hilary, Brooklyn, which
was entirely consumed. The fire then extend
