THE COURT HOUSE, SQUARE.-The young
trees iu the Square are beginning to put
forth foliage, and the turf is looking green
and luxuriant. The improvements made
within the last two or three years, add
greatly to the appearance of the public
square, and it should be the pleasure and
pride of every citizen Of the town to pre-
serve these improvements from injury or
destruction.
We are not inclined to find fault with
any one, but certainly some one is liable
to censure, for suffering those piles Of
broken brick and clay to remain on each
side Of the Court House door, injuring,
as they do. the grass, and presenting an
ugly and disagrecable aspect to every
visitor and resident. If it is the duty Of
no one to remove them, let the citizens
employ some one to do it; we are quite
sure no one will object to contribute his
share Of the cost. Ifitis the duty of any
one, we say 60 and do it without delay.

The past and the Future.

The result of the recent elections North
and West are full of encouragement to
the Democracy. Everywhere the Black
Republican cause is on the wano, as is
shown by the diminished vote In many
places and total defeat in others. In Con-
necticut, where short time back the
Abolition candidates had over fUt thou
sand majarity, on Monday last they had
but over fire hundred, and that fvs hun
bred obtained by some unexplained hoous
pocus in single district. In Rhode
Island, where for many years it has
reigned Supreme, Black Republcanism
has been utterly routed. In Name, the
majorities have been largely reduced,
while in the West, Democracy j; every
where increasing in strength AID over
coming one after another the strmgholds
Of Black Republicanism. In Cincinnati,
the Queen City of the West, the Democ-
racy have signally triumphed, sweeping
out the last vestige of Black Republican
ism and electing every city officer. Last
year the majority against the Democracy
for Mayor was two thousand, row they
have an average majority of seven hun
dred. In Dubuqe, Iowa, the Democracy
have elected about half the officers. In
Brooklyn, the Democracy have been vic
torious over all opponents. While in
most of the inland towns of New York
and other Western States. the same sue
cess has attended our cause.
These things are calculatedt to encour-
age the Democracy and prompt them to
increased diligence and exertion. As to
the construction of Union party in op-
position to Democracy, the thing is simply
absurd. Here and there few old played
out fogies, like Crittenden and Bolts, and
few more ambitious demagogues of mi
nor note, are blowing about the country,
attempting to humbug the people with
their grandiloquent boastings. But sem
sible men know that it is d humbug -
They remember the great conservative
Union party of SO, with Fillmore at its
head. They remember the, boastings of
that day and its ridiculous ending; and
every sensible man knows tsat such will
be the end of the present silly movement.
The contest is between Democracy and
Black Republicanism, and 20 honest,
conservative man should be hunbugged
out of his vote upon any other issue
Bolts has about as much Glance for the
Presidency as broken down spawned
old dray horse would have in winning a
race in opposition to Flora Temple. and
the other candidates for this honor are in
the same category. The question is De-
mocracy or Abolitionism, add between
these alone the people arc called upon to
choose. -Bah. Republican,

A CONSPIRACY DISCLOSED. 1t is de-
clarcd in despatch to the Baltimore Sun
that the black-republicans mean to invoke
the legislature Of Connecticut to pass
law restricting the SURFACES of naturali-
zed citizens, in order to secure the vote
of the State for the black-republican
presidential candidate in November. -
We have no doubt of the disposition Of
the Connecticut abolitionists to do some
thing of this kind, in imitation Of the
DISTINGUISHING measure (two-years amend
menD adopted by their Massachusetts
brethren but we very much doubt the
courage Of the conspirators who have con-
trived the scheme. If actually adopted
by them, however, we have not the slight
est doubt whatever as TO what the result
would be.

DEATH OF Mrs. GRIFFITH. The sud-
den Illness and death of the wife of our
esteemed friend, Mr.. THOMAS GRIFFITH,
which occurred at her residence, near
Laytonsville, in this county, on last
Tuesday evening, has cast gloom over
a large circle of relatives and friends,
who mourn her untimely end. The Sc
verify of the attack, and the rapidity with
which it progressed to its fatal termina-
ton, shocked the entire community. The
evening before, in the full enjoyment of
robust health, she spent at neighbours
house, and returned home after night.
The next morning she had slight head
ache, and eat nothing until about 8 o'clock,
P. NJ, when she took cup Of tea, pre-
pared for her by one of the house SER
wants. Soon after taking it, she was
taken i'll with violent spasms of the stom-
ach- distressing nausea and vomiting
great prostration--fnally, cold extremi-
ties; and, after great suffering, died
about o'clock, an illness of less than
five hours. Strong suspicious of her
having been poisoned exists, inasmuch as
the next morning two ladies of Mr.. G.'s
family, and three of his negroes, were
similarly affected, but not SO violently,
and recovered after the administration Of
proper remedies. We have not heard
that Mr.. G. has made any effort to ascer.
