Political Phase ofour City Elections
AS the Democracy may be claiming partial
victory in this city, we will just ct the matter
right on the start. The Republican Convention
nominated full ticket Of good men, in which
some OF the old names were left Off Ofcourse
all were not satisfied with She nominations, and
the Democrats took advantage ofthis feeling
They nominated a city ticket made up of two
Democrats and four Republicans. Neither Of
the Democrats on the ticket was elected, but
two of the Republicans We're
The result is that all the city officers elected
are Republicans, and also nine out of the twelve
councilmen, and all other ward officers except
in the 2nd ward

buying goods for j. II. Fancher and he informs
us that he las secured alarger and better Stock
OF Spring and Summer Goods, which are now
arriving and being opened Tor the inspection Of

Came in like a Lion Our citizens were
surprised looking out Of their windows on Mon
day morning to see the earth clothed again in
tho robes Of winter, which she had laid aside
some weeks ago. We looked cut and saw atl
least four inches Of solid snow on the ground
and still falling. We have not had heavier
fall Of snow in the same length Of time during
the entire past winter This We thought was
g winter lingering in the lap of srring" with
vengeance, and an " April Fool" into the bar
gain But there is practical side TO such dis
az eoables as an April snow storm that IS far
u"l pleasant. Such snow is said to be ''tho
poor mans manure" Exactly how much il
enlirhes the soil we are not Informed, but we
have always understood thatitwas highly ben
efcial to 1t. Whether it is better than tha reaI

cannot tell, but we believe it is There is an |
other coRsola ton; ii there is any truth in The
old saw that the month that comes in ike
lion will go out like lamb, then we may look
for warm growing weather during the latter
part Of the month As near as we can learn,
there has been little ifany spring sowing done
yet in this vicinity. After this rain and snow
storm, the ground must be settled, and q few
days of warm weather viii put it in excellent

that the crops will spring forward faster when
they start.

We suboin panoramic eptomc Of the most important
features of the law courts during the year 1850 The

at special term and chambers, the vast number Of
minor actions, OF public interest, which frequently
occupy our courts and jures.
The following compendium publish in addition TO tho
annual claw Statistcs'-a feature which originated
years ago. Ono shows as nearly as possible the
number of entered and disposed Of and the other
erates the results OF the important trials and de-
clsons heard and pronounced in courts during the
year that has just passed away
The results of the criminal trials portray fearful in
OF homcdes and other nhuman depravites in
midst but that there have not been any capital convc
ons recently owing to the bunglng OF tho last Legs
ature which, by It's peculiar and unprecedented enact
ment wresed from courts the power to sentence tho
murderer execution and rendered nugatory the
great terror OF the reckless slayer Of human c Thus
the hinges Of the gaows rust, whilst there is i'm
munity and legalzod privilege for murder.

A Poor Defence.

The Montgomery secession correspondent OF
the n. Y. Tribune, says:
1T is plain that gigantic war is about to
be inaugurated. Its main feature will be the
perfect solidarity of the South, while the North
ern Democracy will rise in rebellion against
the Lincoln government, and check the pro-
gress of the Federal arms
When the consprators of the South learn the
truth, they will find that they have calculated
without their host. The Northern Democra-
cy," SO far as the mass of its members are con
cerned. Twill rise " in support of their Consti-
tutiOnal government and the measures adopted
by its Executive to put dorm the rebellion >
which now threatens the overthrow of all Do
litical rights. If JEFF Davis and his confede-
rates are really relying upon the treachery OF
Northern Democrats for the success of the Sc
cession outrage, they are doomed to sorry
disappointment. However extreme the course
of some Democratic leaders may have been in
this matter, the people of that. as of the other
parties. are loyal and true, as the traitors to
the Union will find. should they test the volun-
teers now being organized for service.
We are we'll aware that Divide and Con-
quer has ever been the motto of the slavery
propagandists. Always able to rally their own
people to the support of any measure or party
that promised advantage to slavery. they have
been no less fortunate in dividing those who
ought to have been equally united in the defense
of Freedom. But the fire-eaters have finally
found the point beyond which their demands
cannot be granted. When they asked the North
ern Democracy to yield up the Union of their
fathers. and the dearest hopes of Freedom
throughout the world. for the benefit of the oil
garchy of despotism and perfdy, they exacted
too much, as they will soon learn. The men,
bers OF that party could. as they did, yield up
their organization at the behest of slavery. but
the sacrifice of their country and its institutions
was step too far for them to CO.
