The Democratic Stats Convention met
at Detroit, 10th instant, pursuant to call
Of State Committee, and decided by res
olution to make no nomination against
Isaac P. Christisncy, for Judge Of the
Supreme Court Of this State. The Con-
vention nominated for Regents Of the
University, DR.. Ebenezer Wells, Of Ann
IArbor, and Mr.. o. G. Comstock, Of Cal
houn, gentlemen Of the highest qualifca-
tions.
The Committee on Resolutions, through
their Chairman, Hon. Robert McC Clelland,
submitted the following:
Whereas, The Judiciary should have
greater control than any other depart-
ment Of the government over the person
al security and property OF our citizens,
and everything valuable in social life; and
Whereas, The independence and In
tegrity Of the Judges are essential to the
impartial administration Of justice; and
Whereas, In the recent action of the
Supreme Conrt of this State, we have the
most satisfactory evidence Of the deter
mination Of the majority to disregard
party and decide impartially; and
Whereas, Whilst we politically differ
from the Hon. Isaac P. Christiancy, who
is candidate for reelection, we place
confidence in bis ability, integrity and ex-
perience; therefore
Resolued, That this convention, with
view of paying just tribute to the in
dependence Of majority of said court,
andof preventing the Judiciary, as far as
practicable, from being made the subject
Of mere partizan contest, will make no
nomination in opposition to him.
RESOLVED, That we re-affirm the demo
cratic doctrine of strict construction of
constitutional provisions, and that the f.
nal determination of courts of last resort,
on questions arising Hereunder, are equal
ly binding on all.
Resolved, That those membeis of the
Legislature who have disregarded the de-
cision of the highest judicial tribunal Of
the State deserve, and should receive, the
condemnation of the people.

"Mrs. Lincoln remaiaed seated in
queenly state. She was dressed in white
satin, richly embroidered, and wore a

rings were Of diamonds. Her hair was
arranged with fall'of curls and with sill
yer ornaments and white artificial flowers.
Her rounded arms and dimpled shoulders
were displayed, and her face bore the ex-
preston which assured all observers that
she WAS the wife Of the President. No

Thslaw Of the United States imposing
. tax upon incomes, may be necessary so
fhr'ss ths rsvenueis concerned, but it is
framed upon 4 wrong principle. A law
imposing tax upon incomes may be q
very just and necessary form Of taxation,
but the present law is not Of that kind.
It goes out Of its way searching after a
few cents revenue from some poor and
needy man, and leaves the income Of the
rich untouched. One thousand dollars is
but . small some out Of which poor man
has 70 feed and clothe bis family, and yet
that suu,is the maximum income of three
four5hs Of the heads offamilies in the coun-
try. Out Of that sum he has 70 pay bor-
ougb, county and state taxes, all Of which
hsvebeen largely increased, and in addition
this year, has to pay eight per cent. on the
excess over six hundred dollars. If his
total income is one thousand dollars his
income tax is thirty-two dollars. His
neighbor who has half million invest
cd in government bonds, bearing six per
cent. interest payable in'gold--an income
equal to seventy thousand dollars--pays
no taxes at all. He atoils not, neither
does he spin," he adds not dollar to the
productive wealth Of the country, but
possessing fortune of half million in
vested in federal bonds, which are exempt
from taxation, he draws his seventy
thousand dollars income tax thereon
This is wholly unjust. This exemption
from taxation Of capital, and the collec-
ton of revenue from labor, is altogether
uuequaI and unjust, and falls with op-
pressive severity upon, class who are
least able to bear it. Clinton Democrat
