County Convention of Saturday last was ''pon-
erfll weak in point oc numbers, yet, considering
the character and standing Of the delegates, We
must say it was resge- t15ly attended. The diff
cGlty found in the late Republican Convention was
that few could be prevailed on % became candi-
dates. The trouble of the Bell and Everett Con
vcntiun was. to find men OF the party to tenler
honors. \ great measure OF the difficulty was,
however, saved, by wisely declining to run a

of hard and earnest search, and the result, we
think will be quite glorious. See first page FOR

: When the news first reached rs tia

When the news first reached us that
Pennington had given a Democratic ma
jority of 90 at the late election, we confess
that we were somewhat as.onished. But
at no time have we thought that the Re
publicans of that town were at fault for
such an adverse result, knowing, as we
do, that there are no more reliable and eff
1icient Republicans in the county than
those of Pennington. A comparison Of
the vote this fall with that oil two wears
ago explains che whole matter and shows
that our friends there have been working
mantully, and under the circumstances
have done better than was to have been
expected. In IS the total vote of the
town was POI, and the average Republi-
can vote ll6 whereas now the full vote
runs up to 422. This great increase is
owing mainly to the fact that on the eve Of
The election, large numbers of foreigners
claiming residence there were natural
ized' who voted, in body. the Democrat
ic ticket, The average Republican vote
reached ls2, or 10 more than 1t erer ,cas
6efore So that the increased Democla attic
majority there is not on account Of the de-
cline of Republicanism, or the inactivity of
our friends, bat solely because of the IN
creased vote of the town, and of persons
who really had no more legal right to vote
there than We had.

Three Per Cent. a Month.

A merchant once came to Mr.. James
G. King of New York, in great distress,
to borrow 100000 for year, saying
that he must have it, and that his business
would justify him in paying any rate of in
terest. Mr.. King told him that no bust
ness could stand premium of three per
cent. a month, but finding him hard to con-
vince, took the following ingenious meth
Cd -
why discount for so short time -
said Mr.. King. ''Why not make it up for
three years? l will discount your note
for 100, 600, if you will make it for three

Thank you, Mr. King I will draw it

don't you want a collateral?"
''No, sir Mr. Miller Cunning to the
accountant, take off the discount at three

"a check? What for?"
"Why, Miller has handed me state
ment, and find that if we discount or
shave your note for three years for $780,
600 at three per cent. a month, you will
have to pay me 5000"
''Why this is absurd. give you my
note for 100000 and get no cash in re-
turn, but have to give you $4,000 cash.
Bah -
BE cool, D., and listen. l have done
this purposely to give you lesson-to
show you where your mercantile career
will end, if you will submit to such extor-
tions Now if you will pledge me your
word of honor that you will curtail your
business, and never pay more than seven
per cent. interest to carry on your trade,
l will tell you what l will do. You want
800, 600 Draw your note for that sum
at ninety days, leave me 500, 900 Of your
best notes receivable, and I will give you

Southern planter somewhere On the route
who employed her as governess in his fam

THE LATELY DISCOVERED CAVE IN FLOR
IDA.-A correspondent Of the National In
tellgeneer writes as follows:
In your issue of the 22d inst, | read an
account of the discovery of cave in Flor
ida, In which was found Latin inscription
certifying that it was inhabited or visited
by Europeans in the eleventh century,
Of this now there can be no doubt. if this
discovery is true; and consequently, our
country was known to the people of Eu-
rope before its discovery by Columbus
But that is not the only point which |
want to notice in this connection. My OBJ
iect is to direct the attention of American
historians or antiquarians to a similar
statement in Cardinal Wiseman's treatise
on The Connection between Science and
Revealed Religion in which that accom-
plished scholar and archeologist states it
for fact, when speaking of the aborigines
Of America, that there are manuscripts in
the Vatican library of Rome which say
| that this country was known to Missiona-
RES of the Eternal City in the tenth cen
fury, and concludes his remarks on the
subject by asking the question, ''Who can
enlighten US on the subject?'' or words to
that effect. e have not the work now be-
fore me.) The records found in the Dan
ish archives since this work was written
| go or 40 years since) prove that this Con-
tinent was known to the Mortimer before
it was discovered by Columbus but this
development, if true as have above said
removes all doubt of that interesting fact. :"
