MiscalIIng Terms!

There is a portion of the democratic
party of this county, who have disagreed
on some Of the candidates nominated by
our conventions, who style themselves
t.barn burners" In ASSUMING this name,
however, they must Fecollect that, at the
present time, those democrats calling
themselves .'barn burners" in other sec
tons of the Union, have different plat
form from that upon which our party has
stood heretofore. Their one grand issue
is the Wilmot Proviso; and they oppose
the election ofthe Baltimore nominees
Are those democrats here, who call them.
selves "barn burners" in favor of the
Wilmot Proviso, to the exclusion of every
thing else =? Are they opposed to the
election Of Cass and Butler? Ifthey are
they have not revealed such sentiments
they would not take here. 1t must be
Iecollected that it takes more to constitute
"barn burner" now, than a mere name.

Judiciary Election.

The day for holding our judicial cleo.
ton is approaching. We trust that the
result will prove that the people are capa.
BILE of selecting their agents themselves,
directly from their midst. 1t is true, we
have heard many express their opinion
that the new system would prove failure,
but we hope they will be disappointed.
Our candidate for Supreme Judge. Hon.
J. d. CATION. is worthy and abundantly
competent to FIJI the Office for which he
has been selected as a candidate. We
are aware that an attempt is being made
in certain quarter of this grand division
to defeat him. To accomplish this, the
disatfected ofall parties will be called up.
on to lend their aid. Considering this
state of things, the friends of Judge Cation
should be prepared for the performance Of
their duty. HIS opponents will doubtless
avail themselves Of every advantage which
the extensive limits of the division will
give them. We know OF no reason why
the democracy cannot support their can
didate cordially and energeticalIy.
The candidate for Circuit Judge has
not been selected yet. A convention
meets at Naperville, on Friday next, for
that purpose. 1t is hardly necessary for
US to say anything in regard to the claims
of the gentlemen whose names have been
mentioned in connection with that impor.
tant trust. The bar of this county, as
will be remembered, recommended HUGH
HENDERSON as suitable candidate to the
convention. MIR. Henderson, is well
known for his legal abilities and integrity,
and as an indefatigable champion ofdem.
ocratic principles. Should he be nomin.
ated, the choice could not fall on worthier
shoulders. The same, probably, can be
said of the others mentioned. We view
it however, where the candidate shall
come from, as matter to be decided by
Cook county. We, however, trust that our
brethren in that county will manifest a
little forbearance with other portions Of
the circuit. Cook county has the power
in her hands, and it remains 10 be seen
what disposal she will make of it.

Buffalo Convention,

The great, so called, Stree soil conven
tion," which assembled at Buffalo on the
9th instant, nominated Martin Van Buren,
for President, and G.. F. Adams of Massa.
chusetts, wing, for Vice President.
Thus il appears that Martin Van Buren,,
the man who owes his elevation to the
Presidency to the convention system, per.
mits his name to be used to break up the
harmony and concert of action necessary
TO bring the entire democratic party in the
field against fhe wings. Three months
ago, we could not have been persuaded to
believe that Martin Van Buren, would
have consented to lend his influence to
elect wing president. Because his am.
bition was not gratifed, he now stands
arrayed against the democratic party of
the Union. His object is to defeat the
democratic Misunderstanding else. Ger.
tainly, no democrat who will look into the
matter, can suppose that Mr.. Van Buren,,
can obtain the electoral.v vote of a single
state. The issue is between Cass and
Taylor. Any democrat supporting Mr..
Van Buren,. contributes directly to the
election Of Gen. Taylor. The confidence
of Van Buren's friends, that he stands the
remotest chance for the Presidency is de.
lusiye and vain.

The Mails,

We hear much complaint. and Justly
too, in regard to irregularity of the mails,
at allthe intermediate post offices, between
Chicago and Ottawa. Under the present
regulation. anything mailed at any of the
intermediate points on the route, must 90
first to one or the other ofthe above places,
before it is sent to the office to which it
may be directed unless the post master
where it may be mailed, takes the res.
possibility of putting it in small pocket
which is attached to the mail bag, in which
it may be sent, but not under a lock.
~ The blame in this case, belongs solely
to the contractors, They agreed with the
post Office department, for a certain con.
sideration, to deliver the mails to all the
post Offices on the route but not to suit
their own convenience, csrry them to eli.
Their end of the route to be put in bag to
be sent where directed This has been
the case ever since the mails have been
carried on the canal packets. We un.
derstand that DR.. Bowen, post master
here, has endeayored to have the evil
remedied, but without effect, so far. The
people have suffered long enough by this
violation of contract on the part of the
contractors. The evil is so great that ii
cannot be longer borne In silence. The
Department should look to the matter and
see that this palpable violation Of its usa-
ges are corrected. ,Ts~ots ssi 8 q
