= The delegates from this parish were instruct
ed to vote for the Judge in the convention.
The democracy" had not then heard his
speech. How many of you can now say that
you did not act hastily? 1 'l a. -7ygr'.
Our view now is, that many of those who
headed that Instructive operation, regret it,
not because the Judge has been uncandid in
his statements, or misrepresented them or his
district, but because he was so mild in his de-
nunciations Of party, the tenets of which he
proclaimed were already acted on by the Go.

be done. Z 6i sslT. T.Go1 y.r l7rqgs,}
We would like nothing better than to be an
'eayes-dropper" in certain quarters about town,
that We might learn in detail what has been
said about the speech and the speaker; and
whether no sly intilnation has passed from one
to another, that it is fortunate for the party
that Lioingston is coming, who will shcw en-
the law" And we venture the prediction that
when he does come as come he will, with all
his "sins on his head" unwashed, and un-an.
nointed, he will try to unsay and explain away
the matters of fact which they, the party, were
compelled to hear and applaud on Tuesday
And We venture another prediction, that the
Judge will not be again solicited to make an
other effort in Clinton by the "party," unless
upon an explicit avowal beforehand as to his
cline of argument" We shall recur tn this
subject again. For the present our remarks
have been rather desultory and dsjointed. We
conclude by saying that it is to be regretted,
for the good of the country, that such men as
Judge Perkins are not "forced into the SER
vice. rather than have many to force them
selres into it, who are not even qualified to take
command of deserted outpost. With such
an antagonist as Judge Perkins, it would be
honorable to take "position," honorable would
be the combat, and honorable the result what
ever it might be.

warden. Ii is made the duty Of that officer, to
investigate, aud report the causes of all the
fires that NAV occur within the city limits
lie recently made his semi-anHual report from
which it appears that from the first of Decem-
Der "a to the 3lst Of May, SIS there were in
that city l73 buildings burned. Loss s879,-
$40 Of this sum total, nearly one third Of the
loss sustained was from the torch Of the incen-
diary.
The warden also attributes much of the
loss sustained to the putting up Of defective
buildings carelessness or design with view
to cheapness, with still a greater carelessnes'
in the execution of the work. These defects
prevail alike, with those of an ordinary, and
those of a splendid outside appearance. 1t il

there is not more than one house out o: every
