STILL HARPING.

The Cairo Union made its seventh weekly
appearance yesterday, and unlike it's issue of
the 18th inst, it pitches into Hon. w. II.
Green, like an infuriated ram at a gate post,
and hurls Billingsgate language at that gentle
man as though it were perfectly reckless how
dirty it made itself provided the smallest mod
icum of the dirt 1t slung attached to the
garments of the honorable gentleman aimed at
The TIMES, too, comes in for a share of the
UnaOm's attention. Our journal is styled a
copperhead organ, and ourself copperhead,
not because we have espoused or advocated anv
particular principle or party but for the reason
that we have favored the election of a fellow
citizen to the position of Judge of this iudi
cial circuit, irrespective Of his political
affinities, and solely on account of his merit 20
a gentleman and fitness as Il lawyer. We re-
grct having gricved our venerable friend of
the Union by refusing To look through his
goggles, and exercising our prerogatiye as an
American citizen, without consulting him.
The Union has devoted its attention to our
iavorile for the Judgesllip for several weeks.
and though it has demonstrated itself as per-
fectly unscrupnous, yet it has failed to presen,
one single charge against him, or show "a single
reason why the people of this district, and
Alexander county in particular, should not
vote for him.

BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENT.-The beautiful ex-
tract below is from the pen of Hon. George S.
Hillard
confess that increasing years bring with
them an increasing respect for men who do not
succeed in life, those words are commonly
used. Heaven is said to be place for those
who have not succeeded o1 earth 1t is surely
true that celestial graces do not best thrive and
bloom in the hot blaze Of worldly prosperity
Ill success sometimes arises from superabund-
ance OF qualities in themselves good-from d

seli-iorgetfulness loo romantic, modesty too
retrnS l will not go SO far to say, with 4
living poet, that :" the world knows nothing of
its greatest men - but there are forms of
greatness, or at least excellence, which die and
make no sign there are martyrs that miss
the palm but not the stake, heroes Without the
laurel, and conquerors without the triumph,

The Union man and his political hackers are
surely insane in endeavoring to defeat Mr..
Green on purely partizan grounds. in district
where their party is in a hopeless minority.
We can only account for their so doing upon
one other hypothesis, viz that they are de-
sirous of arousing the political enthusiasm of
their partizan friends, hoping thereby to draw
them to the polls on the 5th proximo, while
the Democracy, confident of its strength, and
feeling that politics will not enter into the
canvass, may stay at home, thus allowing
Dougherty to secure the Judgeship, nearly as
possible without opposition. Mr.. in
accepting the honor conferred upon him of
being candidate for the position of Judge
of this District, explicitly stated that lie
did not recognize the office as a political one,
and took occasion to condemn the policy Of so
making it. The Democracy throughout the
District have read Mr.. Dougherty's letter OF
acceptance, and said amen to the idea thus
than that the masses of that party should stay
at home on election day, and permit the few to
decide az between two men, both Of whom ig-
more politics? But in coming out 80 soon and
showing its cards, the Union has but given to
the contest political tinge, and foolishly noti-
fed it's enemies Of the designs upon them.
Had its party laid low until few days before
election, and then sprung up and surprised
their enemy, victory might have perchea upon
It's banners. But it's action in the premises
has been suicidal, and, when defeated, Col.
Dougherty may we'll exclaim, "Save me from
my friends
AS We stated few days since, some of the
political friends Of Mr.. Green have been &C.
lively engaged in urging that gentleman to con
sent that the contest be made a political one,
and partizan meetings be called in his interest
in which case the barefooted Democracy Of
the District would rally as one man on cleo
ton day, and leave Dougherty so far behind
him in the race that certificates could scarcely
be secured to prove that the former entered
the ring at ALL But up to the present writing
such an arrangement, accompanying his refusa
| bv the declaration that, rather than run as a
political candidate for the Judgeship, with sue.
cess certain, he would make the contest es-
! chewing politics, though defeat were a FORE
| gone conclusion
We could wish that the Opposition would
| take as sensible view of their duty in the
premises, but they have not and we anticipate
that, as consequence, a large vote will be
| polled on election day, and on the 9th prox.
| Tho T,,jon man will sen himself as others sae
him. So mote it be.

and not knowing that the gun was loaded, put
his foot on the lock, and blew in the muzzle,

Col. Metcalf has been long and familiarly
known. not only to many of the butiness men
of this city, but to most of the River men on
our Western waters, in connection with the
Transportation Department oftho West, and
his man-frieuds will s plsS5o 10 that OF Breyet
Colonel. The Missouri Republican, in speak
ing of Col. Metcalf's promotion, very truly and
deservedly says:
Among the many military promotions made
during the war, and those that have been
made since the war closed, none were
moro meritoriously deserved than the late pro-
motion of Capt. L. S. Metcalf from Captain
Of Volunteers to the rank OF Brevet Colonel in
the regular army. Colonel Metcalf owes his
promotion, not to political pressure, nor the
solicitation and opportunities of friends, but to
personal merit alone. After long term of
! hard and faithful work in this city, in the
Qu;.iicrmaster's department, his merit has been
recognized AID honorably rewarded. The dis
| tinction thus conferred upon him has been ow-
ing entirely to his close application to duties,
his fair dealings with citizens with whom he
| came in business contact, and also his rigid at
| tention TO the interests of the Government.
| Colonel Metcalf has held a position in the
| Quartermaster's department, of all others the
most difficult to ill and give general satisfac.
! ton. He had charge of transportation, and,
from the nature of his office, had to rely most
entirely on his Judgment and be governed by
| the circumstances surrounding each particular
case that came up for decision. After his arduous
labor, and the faithful performance ofhis duties,
we hear him spoken Of on every hand as gen
tleman and an honest man. Such opinions are
as altogether honorable as the promotion.
The Government has for a long period recog.
'nized the capacity of Colonel Metcalf and III
proof of this we mention the large number o.
| claims referred to him for adjustment, prop,
erly belonging to other departments.

Why WAS THE 7TH OF DECEMBER APPOINTED
THANKSGIVING DAY?-The Chicago Journal
inclines to the belief that President johnson
departed from the usual custom of appointing
the last Thursday in November as Thanksgiv
ing Day, and denominated the first Thursday
in December Tor the reason that as Congress
abled before the 7th to officially announce to
the world that slavery has ceased to exist in
the United States, thus providing additional
cause for thanksgiving.
