DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET.
Our STATE Ticket.

We place at the head Of our column
10 day, the Ticket selected BY the late
9Th Of Jan'y convention. Nothing
could give us more pleasure, than
once more placing the name Of Judge
Ranney before the people, as candl-
date for Supreme Judge, MS superior as
a Jurist is not in the State. The se>
lection OF Grist~old was a most capi-
tai one, Barney and the school law are
before the people, and if the present
Legislature don't amend the latter. so
as % make il less burdensome on the
people it will be breach of P romise
made before the laIe Election. The
S,aieman saws.
Tn. state Electoral ticket is made up oI
excellent men-good and true. and if elected
in November next, as we hope they be, lei tht
candidate for President be who he may, they
are inst the men to carry out the will of thost
rlecting The m as designed by the Cons titutior
Of the United States.
To the candidates on the State ticket th'
highest compliment was awarded, that Of
rencmina(cd by acclams ton. il was he hig
hest enlogy for their past services. and willlb
followed BY an enthusiastic support

A PRACTICAL SERMoE.-A few Sun
days since. a certain highly popular
and talented clergyman of 'he Method
list Church, read TO his congregation the
2nd chapter Of Paul's Epistle to the
EPhssians, the 18TH verse of which il
as follows:
Now, the refoTe,ye are no more stron'
gers and ioreignes, but fellow citizens
with ;he saints, aai 81 the household Of
God.'
After reading this verse. he deliber.
ately raised his eyes TO the congrega'
lion, and remarked, My breathren-
81. Paul pns not KnotU NOthing!--
and witout another word Of comment
went on with his reading. The rever
end gentlemen. though opposed to max
ing political remarks in the pulpit
could not let slip SO favorable an op.
portunity Of defining St. Paul's posi-
lion on Hindooism.-Nsv Haren Reg

Then TweedIe- dee went the fiddleH.

Takes Thousands TO organize Cry'd he.
Old Uncle Sam, found it all was sham,
As foolish sham as could be;
And he cried, Knownothings, do you think

But each rOgue-oh law! had a gripping

A better whim.,rham has he;
Then each Tory X. N. shall speedily scam
