Now that the County convention hes
been held in accordance 70 the will and
practice Of the Democracy and done its
work in the usual and legitimate way, W
trust that every man who claims . place
in that great party Of the Constitution and
laws, will feel il bis duty TO join heart and
hand for the success Of the ticket which
has been nominated, and do his best 10
swell the majority in favor of il.
II il always 70 BE- expected that sspir-
ants for o6cs, who may not happen to 70.
ceive nomination ct the time, will feel
somewhat disappointed but then il is
their duty, - good Democrats, to say
A,nes TO the decision Of the Convsntion,
and 90 msnfully to work 70 secure the
triumph Of its nominees.
But il man will repudiate the legiti-
mate action Of the party in her delegated
Convention, because that Convention did
not choose to nominate him, after he sub.
mitted bis name to it, thereby acknowl-
edging it validity and binding force. be

A case Of this kind is true, and, iu-
deed, the only true test of . mans democ.

PROGRESS OF THE VICTORIA BRIDGE

This bridge is recognized rs tho great
est achievement Of engineering science to
be seen in tho New World. Neither pic
ture, nor plan, nor photograph, can give
nm idea of its true appearance. The St.
Lawrence roars and RACES over caiaract
and crag TO meet its iron master. The
rapids, after lingering for brief space IN
the smooth waters of the La Prairie ba-
sin, plunge for the tide rs If to give tho
salt water narration Of Niagura and their
adventures. 1t is just where this last leap
is taken that MI. Ross and Mr.. Stephen
son have placed this. great road Of iron,
so solid and so strong that, through It's
six thousand aud six hundred feet, the
DETECTION caused by the tremendous loco
motive shall not be over half an mch.--
The center tube is up, but il is not yet
connected with the Others.
The labor has been gigantic, and the
result is to be seen in the bringing above
water of all the piers, except one, and on
that the work is far advanced. The prep
arations for the work are in every depart
ment complete. The foundation stones
for the piers must be laid on n smooth
surface, so when q rolling or uneven stone
is in the bed, n chain is attached to IL by
n submarine diver, and it is then drawn
out by an engine.
Seventeen hundred feet of the tube arc
successfully laid on the Montreal side
On the other side n considerable portion
is also completed. Eeighteen hundred
men are now employed for tho finishing
of the work, and the probabilities are that
this noble road, storm-proof, fire-proof,
time proof, will be completed by Novem-
Der next. Unless some giant icc-hood
can reach il, it will remain undisturbed
for ages; and whatever may be the an
swer of 1860, the Canadian of 1860 will
respond affirnativcly TO the question,
whether his country has been rewarded for
the munifccnt enterprise that has thrown
such highway over the fierce st. Law

bf MISS III. v, 0oULDs
The North the North from out the North
What founts Of light are breaking forth,
And streaming up these evening skies,
A glorious wonder 10 our eyes
1t mounts, il spreads, il parts, and plays
In thousand forms, thousand ways.
The moon, to hide her silver crown,
Behind the hills is sinking down;
The silent stars more fixed appear,
To watch the blazing DER their sphere.
The North the North ah! who can tell
What fires in thy cold bosom dwell,
Or e'er the grand arena know,
Such scenery DER the heaven to throw!
1t fades IL shifts and now appears
An army, bright with shields and spears,
That winding on in proud array,
Up the blue heights pursue her way,
With waving plumes and banners, where
No eagles wings e'er cleaved the air,
In serried ranks they're seen awhile;
Then, twining off, in thin de6le.
Battalioned, now again they march
Beneath the high triumphal arch,
And while the vast pavilion spreads,
Gold-fringe3 and tasseled, DER their heads,
A zenith loop superbly holds
Its emerald, green, and purple folds.
'Tis changed! a city looms to sight,
With towers and temples shining white
Behind il snowy mountains rise
Before, foaming ocean lies,
And eager throngs impetuous sweep
Fast downward to the yawning deep;
Then pressing on the crumpling shore,
Drop off, and all are seen no more!
Their mansions melt in waning fire,
While fast the mount and sea retire.
The North! o, who can view Alright
But He who said Let there be Light
Himself a glorious mystery,
Throned in His calm eternity?

How TO Grow OLD.-At the late COM
mencement of Yale College, CT, Daniel
Waldo, as the oldest graduate present,
(of the class 1889 thus closed speech
to the assembled Alumni:
a am an old man. l have seen near
" century. Do you want TO know how
to grow old slowly and happily? Let
me Tell you. Always cat slow-masti-
cate well. Go to your food, to rest, 10
your occupation, smiling. Keep good
nature and soft temper everywhere. New
er give way to anger. A violent tempest
of passion tears down the constitution
worse than typhus fever. Cultivate a
good memory, and to do this you must
always be communicative; repeat what
you read; and talk about it. DIR. John
sons great memory was owing TO his
great communcativeness. Young men
who are just leaving college, let me advise
you 10 choose a profession in which you
can exercise your talents best, and at the
same time be honest.

SCHOOL GIRLS IN WINTER.-Wc wish
to put in n special plea for the girls
Make their dresses short enough to swing
clear of the snow and mud, and give them
good water proof boots TO wear to school.
Yes, We insist upon it-they should have
boots. Women's shoes of the present
fashion are no more fit to be put upon
country roads in winter, than an Indians
birch bark canoe is tit to cross the Attain
tic. Boots viii not look quite 81 trim
about the ankle, or step so lightly upon
the floor but they will do what is of more
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS the health TO show
off these graces in after. life, and take
great many elastic steps that otherwise
might be fewer and those leading directly
down to the grave.
Another thing we are CAD to see COM
mo in fashion; the ladies are learning to
skate, and for this they must have boots.
Now, girls, get each of you pair OF neat
winter boots, and pair of skates to fi',
and the first ice that forms in our neigh
borhood, large enough, go out with your
brothers, or somebody elses brothers, and
learn TO skate. BE prudent about it., and
not overdo the exercise, and you will lind
it capital mediciue--next to horseback
riding. :,
The only way to bring race Of healthy
women, i; to attend to the physical deyel-
opmcnt of the girls, before they are dilu-
ted in the false system of fashionable ac-
complishment, that fits them for nothing
but elegant imbeciles. Ohio Cultivator'

Ey What is Democracy?

II is love to God and man. 1t is bred
in the bone. 1t runs in the blood. IL is

litical equality, and the negroes IN the
rear. Consequently, for these reasons,
the Opposition have always been igno-

A PARAGRAPH FOR BoYs.-It is one of
the besctling sins Of the age, to endcav-
or to get rid of work by seeking easy and
lazy employment, and tho consequence is,
that many cf them turn out worthless
yagabonds. Boys, avoid this whirlpool
as you would plague spot; Danish from
you the dangerous desire to live without
work. Labor is honorable, dignifed; it
is the parent of health, wealth and hap
piness; look upon it ms an invaluable
blessing and never ms burden or curse.
Shun idleness and sloth; pursne some
honest calling, and be not ashamed to be
useful.
