Gentlemen Of the Convention -

to reiterate the same F 80.
trust my friends know me we'll enough to ap-
preciate my motives in declining to permit my name
to 20 before the Convention. Suffice it to say that
reasons Of nature so strong compel me to fo-ego
the wishes of my constituents, (who two years ago
gave SO fiattering demonstration at the ballot
bax,) that it is beyond my power TO consent again
to become candidate. These reasons are purely
personal. and are known to many Of you already
But in declining to permit my name to be brought
before the Convention, have abated none of my
zeal for our success Yonr cause is my cause and
voice and influence be brought to bear for the NOM
inees Of this Convention. l cannot but recall the
, many pleasant incidents of the last campaign in
which my friends and fellow Democrats struggled
manfully for the success Of the party and its nom
! nees, nor can ! ever cease to be grateful to my
friends who battled nobly for our common cause
These things will he treasured among the bright re-
collections Of the past and shall ever feel proud Of
that distinguished honor which you. unnsked. con.
ferred upon me- OF my friends I can only ask the
same unwavering support for my successor, which
they SO freely gave to me. -. - f...,ss.t
| By united harmonious action we can achieve a
glorious victory, and thereby punish those who
would for their own aggrandizement and selfish pur.
poses destroy the organization Of. our party upon
which so much Of veal or woe depends. r :.
Make your nominations, and when thus made, 20
heart in hand to the contest, and thereby secure
their election. And when once man is, appointed

LOOK UP, BoYs.-Every boy who has brain, mus
Gle ard ambition in this country, has the world be-
fore him, and can make himself whatever he may
choose to. provided his aspirations are tempered by
patriotism and virtue. We commend the following
from an exchange to all boys who are now receiving
their .'schooling" at hard labor in pursuing any Of
the mechanical branches: -.
A WonD TO APPRENTICES. Apprenticeship is the
most important stage of life through which the me-
chanic is called to pass. 1t is emphatically the
spring season Of his days; the time when he is SOW
ing the Seed the fruits of which he is to reap in af
ter years If he spare no labor in its proper cul.
ture he is sure of reaplng abundant harvest but
If in the culture of the mental SOIL he follow the
example of many in tlng the earth. and carelessly
and neghgently does his work. like them he will
find the seeding time past, and the ground bring
ing forth only weeds and briars. ,sc t. 80
Let the young apprentice bear in mind, when he
commences learning any business that all hopes Of
success in the future are doomed to fade away like
the morning mist, unless he bear in mind that he
can become master Of his business only by the clos
est application, and the most persevering industry
and that unless he does master it he may bid fare
well to all visions of future prospect and success
The apprentice is the foundation of the great me
chanical edifice, and surely if the foundation of
structure be not Hrm the structure itself crumbes
and falls to the earth. Them young friends perse-
we're; be stidious and attentive; study well the
branches of your business both practical and theo-
retical and you will not FAIL when your time shall
come to take an active part in life to be Of use. not
only in your particular business but to society.

SOMETHING New IN TIE SCIENTIFIC WORLD We
copy the following interesting article from the New
Orleans Picayune. 1t is from the pen Of their New
York correspondent Walter Olyde:"
A certain Dr. Benjamin Hardinge, man of orig
inal mind-a careful, truthful and never-tring
student of nature-has spent the last 10 years in
his laboratory in lIquidatng quartz rock and com.
bining it again in new and varied FORMS Dissolving
quartz slick with an excess of alkal is nothing new
in chemistry but to do it with the slick very greatly
IN excess over the alkali, and in large quantities.
and at small expense, has been of the greatest
stndies of chemistry for the past quarter of century
This Dr. lIardnge surely accomplished for have
three thousand gallons of liquid dissolved at
one time and in the short space Of two hours. and
at an expense merely nominal. The capacity of
this monster machine is six thousand gallons, and
it can digest twelve tons Of quartz, or oze or flint
rock in twentyfour hours, and convert it into the
waters of crystalizaton. But then you have the
basis for the widest spcculalons Your readers are,
perhaps, aware that very large portion of our
globe is Of just this material either in the form of
sand rock or other siliccous substances.
By chemical combinations, DR.. Hardinge makes
an article of plastic MARBLE purer than the purest
Parian. II can be made of any color. by mixtures
with various metallic oxides Every article of marble
work may thus be cast as perfectly as castings Of
metal now are. and copies of Corinthian pillars,
statutes mantels, ETC., can BIZ furnished at an eX-
pense of probably one per cent their cost. By
proper combination with ordinary sand or MARBLE
stone is made harder than the hardest flint and a
price less than the cheapest brick. Your parlors
may be frescoed with marble, and time will never
njure the culors. This is, undoubtedly the same
process used in the catacombs Of Egypt the colors
of which arc az fresh as when they were frst put
on, three thousand years ago.
Your levees may now be built o: stone made on
the premises, and You will have no trouble to make
them equal in size to the foundation-stones of
Solomon's temple -'.
This liquid quartz is also made into paint, incom-
bustible and soluble. Your ships and steamboats,
cannot burn up, and the meanest hut will be as safe
from fire as the marble palace. This seems almost
like the fables of the Arabian Nights yet it cannot
be otherwise than tr, Q.
For dissolving gold bearing quartz, this inven.
tons value is without limit. Every atom of gold
may be precTi ated and saved, and then the liquid
is Of far more value than the whole thing has cost
Think of one great iron monarch disesting twelve
tons Of flint in twenty flour hours.
