yertise,nent ol whlch will be found in our

lure, anl shut out The pretenllons and
polluted streams from Northern cities thai

,erprse. they are showing their sincerity

IA run equal to its great deserts. Mr..
Gardner is gentleman who possesses all
the requisites OF intellect. social position
and capital, to give success to his journal

talent of the South. A powerful and
brilliant corps Of editors and contributors

among whom we may notice Judge Long

Scenes" whose single story in this period
ical of Master William Millen. or a
Youth Of Brilliant Talents who was Ruined
by Bad Luck" is worth the subscription
ten.fold. Some peculiar features OF this
paper are an Agricultural Department,

Hints to Young Gentlemen.

Don't give up your seat IN the cars,

day work, to a pert young mi.s who

Don't submit to be crowded off the

Don't talk literature.and fine art. to

until 900 are sure they know the diff,
terence between Thomson's Seasons
and Thomson's Arithmetic. And if
they look particularly sentimental,
then you may know they don't under,

Don't ask Il nice little girl about

Don't accept II lady's invitation to

Don't stay later than eleven o'clock

Origin of the Two-Thild Rule.

The twnthird rule in Democratic
National Convention of candidates for
President and Vice. President was
adopted at Baltimore, in 1892, when
Andrew Jackson was renominated Tor
President, and Martin Van Buren
was designated Vice President That
was the first Democratic National
Convention ever held. The Demo-
cratic members Of the Legislature Of
New Hampshire made the suggcs-
tion that led to the Conven,iun.-
Their argument was to let the Dis.
tricts and States that did not have
Democratic members Of Congress, but
still had large Democratic popular
vote, have a voice in the selection Of
candidates. Under the old system of
Congressional caucuses, they were
excluded. We now hear partisans
declaim against the idea that led to
the organization Of National Conven-
tion..
The two-ihird rule was reported, in
late Vice. President King, OF Alabama,
was Chairman. An attempt was
made to substitute the majority prin.
cipIe, but it was voted down. In
1885, the second National Conven-
ton was held in Baltimore. The
two-third rule was adopted after "a
long discussion. The majority prin-
ciple at first carried, but was finally
stricken out 10 1910 no action was
taken on the two-thrd rule, ct the
third National Convention, as Mr.
Van Buren was sare.nominaied for
President; By acclama,ion. Ia 1874.
at the fourth National Convention, the
two: :hird rule was adopted by u close
vote, after long discussion At the
National Conventions since held, i,
has been adopted w;thou, opposition.
