possibly be possessed Of But, anxious as they
may be to acquire the vain glory Of the pop

an extent as has that wsrId-ronowned remedy
known as Goes Cough Bal5am. There is scar
cely q family in the land but what consider
a supply of this article as necessary to the

CLosING OF THE RIvER.-The severe cold
night Of December 7th, closed the sold Wis
conse" in earnest. Never before withn the
memory OF the uatiue8 has it been so effectu-
allv sealed as now. The anchor ice from
above had been running freely and rapidly
for several days, unwilling to lodge in this vi
cinity until the recent cold snap; it now pre-
scnts to the eye an appearance of awful sub
limitv not rclished by lumber owners having
their lumber in the river. The ice has com
pIetely filled the river at some points to its
very banks, breaking lumber, and threaten
ing destruction when it again moves. 1t
seems impossible to practised eyes, that it
can get out without very considerable dam
age. The crossing with teams is very rough
and somewhat unsafe-many of them having
already got their foot in" This 'Ice fresh =
is similar to the one We were ta0ored with
some or years ago, but exceeds it in mag
nitude and danger Of the final result We
hope to see the spring open quietly, that no
more damage than our lumber owners at pres
ent have suffered, will be inflicted upon them
Watch and pray.

The Nominations.

The dongs of the Baltimore Convention Will
meet with general acceptance. In our own State
there will be regret that Mr. llatnlin wa: not re-
tanned on tho ticket. The same reasons hold good
for his re nomination. as COR that of Mr. Lincoln
But the Convention, the only authorized body that
had the right to decide the matter, has determined
otherwise. We know that the country will hail
the pane Of johnson with favor. lie hos beer
true from the beginning, and is also man of de-
oided ability and of decided politics The nomin-
alton was due to the loyal portion Of the Demo
cratic party.
These Conventions do things almost as they have
mind to, and We must accept the result and &C
into the work of eiecting the candidates thus put
in nomination with earne.tness.
The nomination of President Lincoln wa clear
ly demanded by the country; and for one, altho
We have had no very strong likes for Mr.. Lincoln,
VIC regard him the very best for the times,
and for the work before the nation.
The Convention did wisely to kick the Blair
delegates out of the Convention. The President
will do well to regard this action of body OF
men which nominated him as significant.
The weakcs, thing that the President ever did
was to pet Frank Blair while he voting all
tho time against the vital measures Of bis admin
istraton aud then by a stretch of power send him
back to the army, knowing, as he must, that he
was alternating some of tho trucst friends of him
self and country by SO doing.

The War.

General Sherman is within twenty miles
of Atlanta and General Meade within
seven of Richmond General W. F.
Smith has joined Meade, and General
\. J. Smith is on his way 10 join Shcr-
man. Lee and Johnston are both falling
back, fighting as they have opportunity,
but constantly beaten.
Thi, Is the net result Of the morning
news. 1t IS 80 good that we may safely
expect more aud better news. From tt,
moment the campaign was opened hl
Grant, our advance has bc"n steady alour
the whole line ; and Ninlc the enemy i,
said to he all l:snt by secessionists and
rebel l"';:FIitis. it may be suggested that
n",...,s Lee springs pretty soon the trap he
ne is asserted to be preparing, it will be
too late for HIM
We notice, by the way, thu certain az :
hercutS Of General Mcclellan are rcproaci :
ing Grant with after all taking the Chick
ahominy on his way, as though Mcclellan
had taken out putcut for that line OF
approach. Well, ii may be said that even
II Grant were going to repeat Mcclellan
mode of approach, he did not take the
long road, but the short and direct way 70
it. He is now. TO be sure, only where
Mcclellan was before him; but while i,
took Mcclellan two months to get there
Grant has made it in less than twenty five
days, and has beaten the enemy in three
or four battles besides, and he has moved
oyer II road which Mcclellan declared i'm.

UP! Up! Up.

Everything has an upward tendency
Gold which has been supposed to be the
measure of all values. continues to 60 up
rs if it was under the influence of the
gold medal saleratus.'' General Grant
and his self-sacrificing army are rising
daily iii public estimation, and have Il
strong upward tendency. The so called
Southern Confederacy, is bursting up, by
the help of Grant and the memorable logic
of events. Every conceivable article that
enters into daily consumption is on a
bender, and is kiting upward. The meat
that we would dine on daily is up beyond
the reach of the fractional parts of Il
dollar, and a green back can't be spared
for one sitting. So therefore when We go
home to dinner, it is only to dream of
edibles gone up beyond our reach and ot
the cooks wages gone up beyond our pay
ing. The issuing of cards without but
, ter has wider meaning and broader
significance that the mere words would in
dicatc, or the absence Of the usual quantity
of the unctuous substance which comes
from chirnng cream, would imply. The
fact is, all the custums and habits Of by
gone wears have gone up, and we spend
our breath and time in lcvelling ourselves
up to the present order of things. The
sphere which We are rapidly approaching,
is up beyond our old ideas. The taxes
which the township, the county, the State,
and the National collector demands, are
up beyond precedent, and TO the full
measure of our ability to pay. Politics
are in an eilervesccnt state, rising gradu-
ally, and sizzling more dcnonstratively
than for sometime. The Cleveland con-
venton is up, and the Baltimore one has
gone up-to the monumental city. and
clearup to the perpcndieularity of :. Father
Abraham" Our state convention is to be
up at the capital, and up to the patriotism
of rc-nominating eur present popular
Governor. Smaller conventions loom up
in the distance, and are stirring up the
aspirations of patriotic and ambitious cam
didates. The conclusive summing up of
all this, may be stated thus Keep up
good courage; sedulously cultivate and
nurse your stock of patience; keep COOL
and the weather seconds this motion
don't let high prices, nor politics. nor want
of good dinners, nor the stubboness of the
rebels, nor the abundance of Your rates,
disturb your temper, nor make YOU 90 up
in passion.
