4 SPLENDID SIGHT.-The Illinois Cen
trail Railroad, at a town Called Nation, Is
crossed by the Terre Haute and Alton
Railroad. Every day at about p. NJ,
is seen at this point one Of the most splen-
did effects of the triumph of space over
matter that can be witnessed anywhere
/ is that Of four trains coming from four
different directions, arriving at this point
Mt the same time to a second every day
They can be seen as they approach ten
miles in each direction, the prar;es there
being a smooth, broad expanse, stretching
away to the horizon without any Unequal
tiles to obstruct the sight As the ar
rive they approach their cowcatchers
within twelve feet of each other as though
exchanging salutations, when, gracefully
backing, as though bowling an adieu, two
Ct the trains go on switches, while the
other two scream over the iron-bound
prairie. The trains are then let 90 on the
main track again, and they are off and
away

The Views OF a live Democrat.

About now the ball begins to roll,
and the question is, who shall be Cir
cult Judge? Well, there is Cate, Han
chett, Park, Brown and Alban. Ger
talnly Park is a good, honest man, and
a sound Democrat, and we would like
to see him Judge; but he does not
want the nomination. Hanchett is a
good ihsu, but he is too much Of a MO-
ger maE for Democrats to swallow
They can't digest him. There is Judge
Alban-a good, honest, hard-working
nan, and has lived in this county IL.
teen wears, and has large family to
support, and 4 man Of good sound sense
"a man Of phiianthropic principles,
somewhat tinctured with ui.5reri~m.-
Brown Of Wanpacua we don't know
much about. There is Judge Gate
be has presided over orr Court, we
must say, with honor to himself, and
no doubt hnt what he would again ii
reelected. He was elected to the As
sembly in 1852 and 1853, as a sound
Democrat. He was elected to the
Judgeship, which he now holds, as a
Democrat.
In all of the above elections, party
lines were strictly drawn, but the Dem
ocrats are now in the minority, and he
has dreamt that to introduce politics
into the Judicial election is morally
wrong. Ut is strange what conscien-
clous scruples will drive us Democrats
to when we are in the minority but
however, the Judge says he must be
elected. lie expects Democrats and
Republicans, Know-n0thinws and all
other things, to vote for him. He now
says that he never took q democratic
nomination for Judge; he further tells
the Waut0ma paper that he endorses
the republican platform, thai he voted
for Fremont, Washbuln, Randall and
Philips, and Dir. Webb has seen fit to
rindlcate his cause as he is right OF the
goose. Now can we Domocrrts sup
port him? We have made and placed
him in the rank and station which he
now holds, and he now, repudiates US

The Judicial Conventicn-Lts No12i
nee.

At the Judicial Convention held at
Plainiield last Wednesday, we found
the Circuit almost f!ily represented BY
true Republicans, some Of whom had
thon@htIcsSiy signed a call to request
the present incumbent 70 become an
independent candidate, and who
were divided as to choice Of the nomi-
nee between Hanchett, Alban and
Browne. Mr. IIanchett has never
been candidate for nomination or he
would have succeeded beyond ques-
ton. Under the authority of Mr.. H.,
his name was withdrawn from the
Convention by Mr.. G. r. Walbridge,
of Portage County. We have notime
this week to give the whole proceed
ings, but shall publish them in our
next. For the present, suffice it to say
that James S. Alban received on the
first ballot, 50 out Of 70 votes, where
upon he was unanimously nominated
for the Office Of Judge of the It'll Judi
