The Republican Vice President

Mf. DAYTON, OF New Jersey, is one of
the best selections which could have been
msde in the United States f,r the Vice
Presidency. Deseentcd iroli family he
rcditarily patriotic, he has him self perform.
Cd good and honorable service. In the
Senate of the United States he was a true
sharing with the crest body of the Northern
people in an honest and consistent opposi-
lion to the encroachments OF slavery. He
was nine years (from 1e42 to 1851 ia the
Senate, period long enough To test the
public character Of amy man. In that
whole time his record is pure and spot!ess.
He WIS often in minorities, but minorities
in the cause Of Justice and Freedom. He
was one of those who belonged emphutical-
ly TO that great Wing party so long led BY
Henry Clay, and which will yet honor his
memory by voting for one OF its ablesr
friends, and against one Of those w.I0 con-
spired sgains, his character and fame.
Mr. Daytonwas as in every honorable sense
an American; IN every true sense friend
OF Liberty. II a conservative man is want
ed by conservative Wings, no one could be
better trusted than he II will be entirely
within the limits of truth to say, thar neither
Mr.. breckenridge nor Mr.. Donelson are ar
all equal TO Mr.. Dayton in the qualities Of u
statesman.
Wild the Hero of the Rocky Mpuntains,
and an able statesman OF the Senate in the
field, the Republicans ought easily to Tout
the sham Democracy, and consign its Fed
eral leader to an empty niche in the History
Of Pretenders Gin. Gag.

The EARLY LlFE OF BnHoP BAscoM.
The following account Of the trials

The EARLY LIFE OF B1HoP BAsCoM.
The following account Of the trials
Of Bascom. the celebrated preacher,
illustrates what the home missionary
had to undergo, some forty years ago:
In the western part Of Virginia was
situated log cabin, the chinks Of
which were danbed and filed with
yellow mud; it had perhaps. halt
second story, where you could stuiy
astronomy without leaving bed, and
adopt the hydropathic without the use
ofany doctor; the kitchen serves as
breakfast and dining. a dressing and
preaching room. A number ofkens,
with their chickens, are taken in Tor
safe keeping. Amid the barking Of
dogs and noise-and after midnight,
when all had retired to rest, stretched
on his stomach before the embers OF
the fire, which served for his midnight
oil, he not only acquired sufficient
knowledge to prosecute his calling,
but became master OF several langua-
ges. He preached in one year four
hundred times. travelled five thousand
miles, and at the end Of that time his
salary amounted to twelve dollars and
ten cents. That man was Henry
Bascem, who was afterwards raised
to the Methodist Episcopacy, in which
position he was an ornament to the
Church.
| SECRET OF SCcCEss AT THE BAR.-
n asked Sir James Scarlett what was
the secret OF his preeminent success
as an advocate. He replied that he
took care TO press home the one prin-
cipal part Of the case, without much
regard to the others. He also said
that heknew the secret Of beingshort.
Il find, " said he, that when | exceed
halt an hour am always doing mis-
chief to my client. Ill drive into
the heads ofthe jury important matter.
| drive out matter more important,
thatI had previously lodged there
BurtOn.
NJ. Kossuth's criticism on Luke 2:
IA, which be says should read
'Glory to o'God in the highest; peace
on earth to men Of good wilI," is
much commented upon by the religi-
ous press. The preponderance ofau-
thorities is in favor of the accepted
reading, so say the critics, though
much it is thought may be urged III
1ax< - IL D..
/ Bengal, Bunsen, and Oishausen, all
read the original eudokaas, ''men OF
good will. Calvin rejected il; not
upon critical grounds, but npou the
theological ground that it implies
moral goodness in men, objection
of no weight in question OF correct
reading.
