Lyman Catlin Declines Charles Rich
Nominated.

We regret to learn that the Hon.
Lyman Catlin, of Maquoketa, Jackson
county, who was nominated by the late
Democratic District Convention held
in this place, for the Office Of Member
of the Board of Education, has IN con-
sequence of the pressing nature of his
business engagements been compelled
to decline the nomination. Mr.. Catlin
is a man of character and ability. we'll
known throughout the District and in
every way we'll calculated to fill with
honor to himself and advantage to the
educational interests Of the State, the
office for which he was placed in nom
ination by the Convention. He was
nominated without his knowledge OF
consent, and the manner in which his
name came before the people was a
striking rebuke to the Republicans who
by preconcerted plans, a packed Con.
yention and bargain and sale arrange.
ments between themselves, procured
their names to be placed upon the Dis
trict Ticket of the Republican party
At the suggestion of a delegate from
Jackson county who was acquainted
| with the business Of Mr.. Catlin and who
anticipated the possibility of his decli-
ming, the following resolution was
adopted by the Convention:
"Resolred, That in the event of Mr.. Cat

ty-A correspondent at Old Point, in a
letter to the Petersbug MtUigencer. vittily
remarks upon the bathing at Old Point:
THE bathing here is peculiar. A stock
you enter and enjoy yourself as you car,
considering the warmth and s!allowness Of
the wat. r. Hard by, another stockade is
erected for the ladies. This is the misery
of the thing. A few PAGES off, you
hear the most delightful shrieks and screams
AID the most musical laughter. You know
that fun is going on. But where you are,
there is naught but a melancholy 'slashing
around" of bilious and hideovs males. The
contrast between the two stockades-the
fun, the fro.ic, and the females in the one,
and the dull, masculine splashing in the 9TH
er-is horrid, horrid."

people in Perry, Cumberland, and Dauphin

him often at Washington. He is q light
built, ~bald-headed, mild-looking old gentle
man, with a face and head not unlike Gov.
Walkers. He has a clerical look, and with
a white Gravel would pass for q clergyman
who had grove gray and bald in the SER
vice of the Christian Church. His counte-
nance is not indicative Of sensuality or i'm
morality.

have reason to know that should the
Democrats of the North insist on Anti-Le.
compton as the issue in the next Presidential
struggle, Virginia will favor it. 1t is a safe
principle, and one to which they should strictly
adhere, for it involves the application of the
great popular sovereignty right, in reference
to the admission Of new States in the future. 1t

an overwhelming popular avowal in its behalf
