Judge Mclean.


Our article in reference to Judge McLea
as the probable candidate of the Chicag
Convention was well-ti At the dat
of its publication but few indications exis
ted of his becoming the prominent mar
but we were satisfied that his apparen
availability would necessarily draw attention
to him and the impossibility of harmonizin
the anti-Sewardism of the west with tn
ultras Of New England, the Americans o
the center, and the German voters of tn
large cities would lead to the selection of 4:
fossilizcd politician outside Of the immediate
organization of the Republican party; ant
knowing Mclean to be a moderate man ant
believing him to be the most available
timber in the forest Of the "Opposition,'
we had no hesitation in guessing that his
name would take at once. So far as our
acquaintance extends, the Republicans gen.
orally have concluded to 60 in in for Nc
Lean. And our exchanges of the Opposi-
ton order seem to be disposed to drop all
other candidates before the conservatism
ascribed to the distinguished jurst. His
age is really an objection to him, but as we
before remarked, that is not usually urged
against any man yet in the discharge of off,
cial duty. His nomination may ,bc defeat
cd because he is not followed, as most poll
ticians are, by trained band of place.
hunters who usually work with the indus
try of beavers to secure success to him who
will be expected to dispense sweet-meats
from the Federal Treasury, There is a
strong under-current Of Republican Conser-
vatism which would be delighted with the
Judge as candidate, but unfortunately for
his prospects, this political gem called Con-
scrvatism is modest and lazy; it expects
nothing, and hence it works but little. I'll Q
noisy, turbulent foam of the surface pushes
along boisterously and gives to the view an
appearance Of much greater volume than is
possessed by the silent waters beneath
To show the style of argument urged in
New England against the Judge we cut
from Young America correspondent of
the Springfield, (Mass.) Republican. This
writer wants to ridicule Mclean from the
track, and the zest with which his irony is
copied into the papers of rival candidates at
Chicago shows the anxiety they have to see
him Stayed.
"By the way see it stated that there
was misprint of the Judges Cincinnati
"reminiscences, and that it was 1896 and not
1776, when he, a boy of eleven years, went
with his father into the Miami country. So
he is only IS. This makes the matter still
worse, from my point of view. | see by
the papers that an oldsh gentleman named
Snyder lately died in Pennsylvania, who
was born in 1871. What misfortune for
us that he did not survive until the 10th Of
May. His locality was admirable. | dare
say he was sound on the iron interest, and
he was as old a man as we can hope to get.
Alas that the Methuseah era has gone by
| cannot possibly consent to run Mel can
until the year 1900, and fear he will be
run into the ground before that time"

Monona, and she has the reputation of be-
ing a most excellent teacher. Her brother,
Horace Emery, Esq, is the School Superin-

H. E. NEWELL has commenced opening

Goods, Drugs, Medicines, &c. We looked
over his stock with some care, and we are
satisfied it is complete. There is scarcely
anything in either line which you cannot
find at Newell's. His store has been much
enlarged; its handsome finish is attributable
to the taste and workmanship of Mat. Nc,
kilnic and Merwn as carpenters, and to
Mr.. Kenyon as painter. Our Main St.

EXCITEMENT IN MIssIssIPPI. - Thrss Mea
LyRchsd.-The Nashville Gazette publishes a let
ter from a merchant at Friar's Point, dated the
1lth inst, giving the particulars Of the recent
hanging there of three men. The writer says: On
yesterday evening two gins and a negro quarter
were fred simultaneously, doubtless by the pro-
curement Of these wretches. The night was lit
up for miles around. The vigilance committee
were soon under arms, and proceeded to the room
Of three carpenters, one by the name Of Ramlin,
the others unknown, and took them and hung
them to a tree, and afterward cut them down and
burned them. The town is now under arms, the
military parading the streets, and all In excite
meAt and alarm. This morning the remainder Of
the northern men were sent up the river on the
steamer Peytons; some of them were branded
with the letters Z. (gin burners) before shipped
Fourteen gins have been burned in this county
during the last six weeks and the people have de
termined to stop it. An aboIitionist was hanged,
bareled up and rolled into the river at this point
last week, and II was probably TO ayenge his
death that the last gins were fired. A negro i'm
plicated the men who were hung. He said they
had told him all the negroes were to be free next
March, when Lincoln becomes President, and
that there will be general rising of the negroes
then. The vigilance committee have sworn to
hang every northern man who comes here from
this time until the 18th Of March, and all such had
better be in HI than Friar's Point
