Il Among the bitter experiences
Of The last few days, we chronicle the
fact that we must this morning say
good bye to our old friend, Captain
J. b. Johnson, of the firm of Craft
L johnson. who leaves our city to en-
ter unto business in New Orleans.
We have known him for years, and
have ever found him the gallant sol
der and the atfable and courteous
gentlcman Among the many brave
men who made the army of General
Lee. great and glorious, no more
gallant officer could have been found
than Captain Johnson, and when
the blessed white winged messen-
ger aighted upon our land
and ~ found him located at Jackson
We did hot allow ourselves to consider
the prospect Of his leaving. We can
truly say,

Est-The high water for some time
past has set us to thinking seriously
whether we ought not to report river
news Town creek has been present
ing the appearance of very earnest
and respectable river, but the sudden
REGULATIONS of that erratic stream
vould require the services of a most
efficient corps of reporters. Imagine
how It would read
aThe river rising rapidly; it rose
5feet in the last hour At this rate it
would rise 100 feet in a hours and
tie Capitol will not be safe
Perhaps it would be as well not to
report it, but let Town creek rise and
all without alarming any one.

VERY GOOD.

In giving the proc.edinss Of the late
lndisna-IIuobard congressional conven-
ton, the Hamilton Freeman omits the
list Of delegates 1t says:
"The names Of the delegates are omit.
ted for satisfactory reasons
The Freeman man is q shrewd cuss.-
In giving the names Of the delegates he
would have been mpelled 70 prin. list
of nearly every Federal ollics holder in
the district, and he was averse to making
public an inventory of the cha,tels which
comprises Indiana Hubbard's stock in
trade. These reasons may BE- Sat
isIactory' to the chattels, but are not to
the people. They have some interest in
Hobbard's wares, and they would like TO
see their Names and price mark (name of

The Hamilton Freeman, a scAbby little
concern Of the Hubbard. squash species,
makes an indecent attack upon the anti.
office holders delegates from this county
to The republican congressional conven-
ton, and also upon Capt. Goodridge, O.

no defense from the puny shafts Of vsee-
tables Of the Ere man species. Their
characters, socially, morally and poli.i-
cally, ara too high to be affected by the
slime which exudes from the wrig-
Cling parasites that id here to tho line

of Capt. Goodridge, the Webster City

A greater degree Of bsseness, aud ono

We have delayed the paper one day,
for the purpose Of giving the result OF
the Congressional Convention.
After . eevere ard long continued con,
test, in which Judge Hubbard, Judge
Porter, and Judge Woodbury. seemed to
have about equal strength, but no one
strong enough to secure the nomination,
new candidates were brought out, in
hopes that they might be acceptable to
the majority. But after forty seven bal
lois, the combined influence of the Fed
eral officials was powerful enough to non,.
mate Judge Hubbard by one ina iority.-

Here We have from the pen Of Lieut..
Gov. Cue, what The REGISTER has all
along maintained, the declaration that
Hubbard is upheld and fos,ered, at the
expense Of the interests of the district,
by the Federal offiee-hoders, against the
wishes of the mas Of the people.
Now, that the Office. holders have show n
themselves strong enough to mainta

see whether Hubbard has sufficient
strength with the Administration to re-
tain them in their positions They have

The person alluded to ABOVE, true to
his former tactics, sold himself for us,
promising to keep in the back ground,
but nature was t"o strong for him, and
Notwithstanding his pledge the msgnan-
imous republican strongly advocated his
admission. However, he failed to suc-
coed for the good Of his cau.e and was
rejected. Several office holders were
present, not as delegates, Ills true, but to
prove their gratitude to their god from
whom they still! expect few benefits --
