We are not aware Of any good and sufficient
reason why the ancient and monumental town of
Camden should be so far behind its contemporaries

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM.

The Washington correspondent of the New
York Journal Of Commerce truly interprets the
present calm aspect of affairs, in the following
extract. All who. dare to think for themselves
will agree with him that it is not peace, but q
hollow truce, the insincerity of which is further
proved BY the attempt OF the so called North.

The Issue.

A good democrat from the country, remarked
in town yesterday, that '.thc time was when he
believed in party nominations and supported them;
but II had got TO be now-a-days that every thing
must be done in conventions as two or three men
directed, or else have fuss-and he had got tn
ed Of il. He would not vote the ticket;-they
might call him what they chose, but he YVES as
good democrat as he ever was, and intended to
vote for whom he pleased"
This will be found to be the pervading senti-
ment Of large portion Of the bone and snew of
the democracy,-those who have been relied up
on heretofore whenever rork ,cas to b. done, but
who were never permitted TO lend hand at pull
Ing the wires.
The leaders have brought out their Convention
candidates. and the people have brought out theirs
Inc issue is fairly and fully made up between
party cliqxes, and the people. In the contest, it
not difficult 10 foresee on which side will be
eh'issed the sympathies and cxertions Of those
VINO prefer to give effect TO the Independent and
unbiased will Of the people, rather than TO the
dlc'aton Of selfish and interested party leaders.
we would say to the Wings in the City and
~ ~"FFV't tne f"NPeHdtHt
Bring out your whole strcngth--yet your voters
% 'he polls, and Pote the Inaepndcnt Ticket. The
names on that ticket are of men well known and
approved, and fully qualified for the discharge of
me duties Of the several Offices to be filed 1t is
mol offered to you as Wing Ticket-not in vot-
'as Tor it, are you voting Democratic ticket
you are voting for Independent asd Competent
men, and you are lending your assistance to res
cue the Offices of the county from The possession
and control Of those who would lay claim to them
asa matter Of right, and who, in few years
more, would set up fee simple title to them.
II may be asked what the wings have to gain
BY voting this ticket We answer that when We
cannot vote a full whig ticket, we should take
tA aert thing to Il. Especially should we do SO,
Il the men are equally deserving and competent.
But is it nothing 10 defeat the regular nomination
OF the other party? Is it nothing tc thwart the
plans and break down the influence of selfish
and irresponsible clique? These should be in
ducements enough for whigs TO vote the Inde-
pendent ticket, il others were wanting. But
these are not wanting. Compare the merits, the
qaal6c ations, and the claims Of the persons Of
the different tickets and then decide.

Election, of brightness Just as the playful changes
of the sky, now displaying its naked azure, now
modestly vailed in snow white feeces, were mir

The cloud that oppressed her mind had passed
by. leaving it, like Nature after shower-more
CAV, more verdant and more sparkling, Even in
her fragile frame youth was giant.
