Orange County.


Democratic ticket for the Legislature is composed of
the following gentlemen: For the Senate Paul c.
Cameron; for the Commons, John W. Norwood and
DR.. Pride Jones. The opposition, or Wing, or Know
Nothing, or "independent" ticket, as far as made
out is composed of Josiah Turner Jr for the Senate
and Rev. John A. McMannen for the Commons.
Mr.. Cameron, after an animated contest with Mr.
Turner two years ago, elected to the Senate by
a handsome majority; and he has served the people
of the County in that body with marked ability
We have been a close observer of his course as
public man. have heard him in debate in the
Senate and witnessed the information the judgment
and zeal which he brought to the performance of his
duties; and We feel sure that the people of Orange
could elect no one to the Legislature who would
guard their interests carefully than he would
or devote himself faithfully to the service of
the State We do not believe the people Of the County
found wanting, and rejected.
Messrs. Norwood and Jones are now candidates
for the first time. Neither they nor Mr. Cameron
sough. the nomination; but they have been brought
out without solicitation their part, and doubtless
at sacrifice Of their private interests This imposes
upon the Democracy of the County, whose candi.
dates they are, an additional obligation to stand by
them man, and to exert themselves to secure
their election. The fact that Mr.. Norwood formerly
acted with the old Wing party viii be used in the
canvass, and efforts will be made to prejudice por-
ton of the people against him on this account
But surely, with those who know John w. Norwood;
imputations upon his motives in now acting with
the national Democratic party will avail nothing;
while. so far as his judgment is concerned, in de.
termining upon the dissolution of the party to which
he belonged, what he would do, with what party
he would act, we, as voter of the County, would
have as little doubt could have in consulting
the judgment of any other man III Orange, or in the
State. He is now Democrat, one of the party, and
of its candidates. and the people of the County
may feel well assured that he has good for
his course. These reasons he will lay before them
in full during the canvass.
We sincerely trust that every Democrat in the
County will rally to this ticket. An ADLER or bet
ter could not have been selected. Let there be
no division, no swapping Of ootes, no compromises
with the opposition but let the motto of each Dem
ocrat be- John w. Ellis for Governor and the County
ticket the sohole ticket and nothing but the ticket

A WEEK IN 81. LOUIS.

1t showed and blew aud sletcd until
the earth was all glazed over, and all the
commonest trees and bushes were flashing
with diamonds, and anybody could skate
along the high road to the railroad station,
where |, who had no skates nor skill in
sliding, brought mysclfto, after slippery
walk one bright February morning. /
waited and waited, as | had done the day
before, for the train that had run off the
track two days before, but which the Off
ciaiS insisted would certainly come along
by and by. And along towards night it
did come poking along with an engine in
such a die away condition that it had been
losing SIX hours III forty miles for want Of
ability to get up steam. | went to the
next station and tried there to do some
business but failed and waited for the three
o'clock passenger train from Cincinnati to
St, Louis, 1t came at five, and then
proved to be freight train, as the Ex-
press was demolished. At length we were
ingloriously dragged to the brink of the
Father of waters at the end OF slow
Freight, and landed. No Omnibus or
baggage wagon meets the freight, so we
had to leave our baggage, and crossing
the ferry, find our way to a hotel the best
way we could, BY an Industrious system
of interrogation found the city Hotel to
which | had been directed, and went to
bed and waited until day light to set out
on the several expeditions had laid out.
Next morning my first raid was on the
Post Office, l asked several clerks for
letters but couldn't find any, ! followed
the Directions of the Directory to find Mr.,
Ms. office and couldn't find him, as he
had moved away, My letters having been
directed to his care was in a " pickle"
However, [ had another errand for a
lady in Illinois, and set out according to
agreement, in search of her mother, from
whom she could get no letters although
she wrote every week, | observed that
the hotel was on Bird street, and the Post
Office on 2nd street, so | concluded that
like Philadelphia, the streets were num-
bered westward, beginning from the river,
and with this guess for guide | started
for 8th street. | followed Market past
the Museum, (Which | did'n enter, tho
strongly tempted), and when [ arrived at
Sth street, l had no idea which way to
turn, 50 | stood there and asked the first
woman who came along, which way to 90
to find Franklin Avenue. 1t lay north
ward, and to the north | turned, and went
across good many streets until | found
the right one and began to count the num-
bers, but found the houses numbered after
a fashion of their own, the numbers on
one side bearing neither relation nor pro-
portion to those on the other, and as |
was on the wrong side of the street, |
went farther than necessary before l dis

The REVIVAL lNCREASING.-The Re-
viyal is extending. In 10 less than tif-
teen churches in this city are noon prayer
meetings held on secular days, not to
speak OF Burton's old theatre, which is 50
crowded that negotiations are pending to
obtain some larger building, like the Mu-
scum. In Brooklyn also, an increased
number Of churches will be opened for
those who are concerned on religions mat
ters, and all thu signs portend that the
excitement has not reached its elimination.
Legislative prayer-meetings are held at
the Court of Appeals daily in Albany,
merchants and lawyers have prayer,meet-
ings, ladies have their uptown prayer
meetings, and there is some talk of
brokers prayer-meeting at the Exchange,
between the First and Second Boards
One great auxiliary to the spread of the
revival Is the notice taken of il By the
secular press. Column after column il
devoted to the record of religious expert
ences, and Revival Intelligence is made
as much ga feature" as financial or polt-
ical news. This is quite unprecedented,
and shows the extended usefulness of the
Press Of late years.
Certainly never was religious propa
gandism 50 thoroughly carried out Print
ed hymns, tracts, placardS, everywhere
remind the inattcntive of their duty.
Girls and young men visit families by the
block, giving them tracts, urging them to
repent, Offering them free seats in the
neighboring church, and taking an in
vcntory or spiritual census of the num-
Der and condition of the households. Al
together the revival may be pronounced
the most striking phenomenon of the day
