Beautiful Language.

1t is really laughable to peruse the Dali
ly Tribune occasionally, particularly when
the editor Of that sheet makes an attempt
to be severe on some public official, say
President Buchanan. His criticisms are
far more amusing than the pitty jokes
perpetrated by him sometimes. We laugh
ed outright when we saw the Tribune of
the 14th, and read the following judgment
of the editor, on the President. We pub
lish It in order that our readers may see
how far black republicanism can 60 in

of the venerable and upright man who

zens. Talk about BENEDICT ARNOLD

We would ask in all candor, if such
language as the above is not calculated to

to the papers which utter it, and shame
full to the party that sanctions it? Has it

especial reference to his own merits, and
his fitness for the position for which he Is
a candidate; not because he has strength
to aid other men to be nominated. In
fact, the Convention should be an aggre
gate of individual Democrats, met togeth-
er for the purpose of representins-not
personal interests or aspirations-but the
great Democratic Party of the State, and
determined to act and deliberate for the
interest and success of the whole party,
and consequently Of the people ofthe State.
Let the people then attend the primary
meetings, and select good and reliable men
to represent them in the Assembly Con-
ventions, without needing the dictation Of
interested politicians; and the result will
be the choice of a good ticket, which will
be certainly elected in November next.

Democratic State Conventions
The Duty of Democrats.

Above is the call of the Democratic
State Central Committee, to which we al
ludel in our last. The Democrats Of this
county will also perceive two notices from
the proper authorities, calling upon them
to meet in their several towns to select
their ratio Of Delegates to represent them
in the two Conventions-on at Mishicott,
and one at THoKNroN's HOTEL. We will
now call their attention to the latter mott
ceS
Let every Town be fully represented in
the District Conventions, and then choose
such Delegates as will be the most likel y
to act for the good of the party at large,
anil not under the dictation Of any clique
One of the greatest evils That our Conven-
ton system Iabors under, is that o. pack
inr them with Delegates who are mere per-
sonal partizans, looking to the advancement
Of this or that man, instead of considering
the best interests Of the whole party
When a Convention thus constituted
meets, and dominates ticket, it is gener-
ally one very unsatisfactory to the people

selected on account Of personal merit, or
peculiar fitness for the position, but be.
cause lie and his personal friends can bring
certain amount Of influence TO bear in
making other nominations upon the ticket
In fact, the nominations are made by
what in legislation is termcl-log rolling.
The existence of this evil is the fault Of
the people themselves, who do not suili-
GENTLY interest themselves to attend the
Urinary meetings Of the party--tl ose
mcetings upon which depend entirely the
choice Of Delegates, and the consequent
character Of the nominations made. The
business Of choosing these delegates is gen
orally neglected by the masses of the par
II, whose duty it is to see it properly at
tended t0-and is managed by few inter
estea schemers, who use tile power thus
obtained for their own selfish purposes, OF
for the advancement Of some personal OF
clique interest.
The Convention which meets in August
next, will be the most important TO the in
tere~ts Of the Democratic rarty, Of any ev-
or held within the State. For three years
= more, the Republicans have had com
pete control OF the law making power Of
the State, to wit: a Republican Governor

Specialities.

The thing for every young man to strive
for, if he be ambitious of pecuniary sue
cess in this world, is speciality in his
business. No matter what trade or pro-
fession lie may choose, let him adopt some
especial branch or department of it, in
which to render himself famous. lie may
render himself necessary to those who en-
ploy his services, and thus receive his own
price for that which he does particularly
well. Without this special superiority,
he comes in competition with the great
mass of mediocrity, and must expect a
mediocre compensation only in return.-
The pleasant eminence of excellence, how
ever, is not to be gained by wishing mere
ly. 1t requires good hard work, and plen-
ty of it The world does not pay people
for being idle, nor for that which is idly
done. There is labor to be done in all
professions, however easy they may seem,
after they are learned, and the beginner
should never finch from it, for it is only
by his own exertions that he can obtain
the speciality that is to bring him future
honors; and, better yet, future gold.

ANOTHER GREAT BILLIARD MArCn.-

for the billiard match between John Rob

RECONCILIATION BETWEEN Hon. D. E..
SIcKLEs AND HIS WIFE.-Thepapers few
days since brought the news of a rulnored
reconciliation between Mr.. and Mrs. Sick
les, with the remarks of the New York
Tribune, to the effect, that Mr.. S., by this
step, had alienated many fhis old friends
from him. We find, however, if the
Washington correspondent of the N. Y.
Herald may be relied on, that the friends
Of the parties in Washington, where the
dreadful and lamentable events transpired,
which have given the parties such unenvi-
able notoriety, are anything but indignant
at it. The Heralds correspondent Of the
11th says:
"The friends of the Hon d. f. Sickles
in this city have learned that he and his
wife are about to resume marital relations,
if they had not already done so. 1t was
rumored that he was about to sue for a
divorce, but that idea has been abandoned.
The families of both put their heads to-
ceti,h: or and after discussing all the pros
and cons, they came to the conclusion
that it would be better for Mr.. Sickles and
his wife to live together again in peace
and mutual affection, burying the past in
the grave of oblivion. Both parties have
agreed to this step, and it is said their love
is greater than ever. There is immense
rejoicing among their friends, who have
written letters of warm congratulations
OF one thing we are quite certain, and
that is, that the parties directly interested
in the matter had perfect legal right to
become reconciled to each other if they
chose to, and we rather think that the
New Testament approves of such recon-
citations, and it is perhaps the first act Of
their lives that it does approve.
DEMOCRATIC VERMoNT.-This is a
strange heading, and indeed it would he
funny to see the Democratic candidate for
Governor, elected by the people Of Yer
mont next spring. What would the OPP
position leaders say to that? Some Of the
democratic papers intimate that such an
event is highly probable. The Rutland
Courier says-"Many of the republicans
are heartily sick Of the party they have
heretofore acted with, and are leaving the
miserable concern. Since the nomination
Of John c. SAKE for Governor, quite Z
number Of the opposition have joined the
Ranks Of the democracy, and if the change
continues another week as it has the past
there will lie no vacancy in the democrat

Toll on twelve teams daily over the road
at - cents per mile, would amount to
S262S 90 per year. q cents per mile is
less toll than is usually charged, and AS
the country becomes settled, the trade will
increase. To keep pace with repairs and
eventually pay all in some shape, for all
expenses, it would at any rate be good
investment to the town of Manitowoc, and
all the towns through which the road pass

perience in making this kind of roads and
Judging from that experience, have made
my estimate. Gravel roads are more es-
teemed by some, and it makes good roads,
but 1t requires more expense onlow springy
soils, and more subject to want repairs,
than plank. Lumber is cheap now, and
before worn out the taxes will be levied
and derived, and gravel can be used to re.
place plank at less expense.
