incumbent This saves an immense

The jackson Mississippian, of the 18th
instant, says: Honorable WI. Sharkey
has reached his home in this city direct
from Washington. Our distinguished Sen
ator is very emphatic in his opposition to a
convention, and very wisely concludes that
eufranchisement once bestowed upon the mes
groes by the act Of the State can never be
abrogated. Judge Sharkey is clearly of the
opinion that the South is in great meas
ure responsible for her own degradation
The ready acceptance of many of her dis
tinguished men of the huniliating condi-
tions proposed has retarded the advance of
conservatism, if it has not destroyed..all hope
of constitutional government. The course
of journals in the South, especially those
edited by secession editors, who have kissed
the black robe of the conspirators, has been
specially Landed and gloried1n by the radi-
cal press. This is tha everlasting hammer

TIE N Y. Sun asks "what did the war

"The Kansas trouble very nearly brought
it on, and the John Brown affair likewise
nearly answered the purpose. Itwas not the
election of Lincoln, nor the anti>slayery
crusade which caused the war, An old
principle was at stake, and nothing but
1blood-letting could bring the contention to

decided nothing butthe military superiority
of the NORTH" -tta SD a.- .ta
A mistake. According to the recent in
terpretation at Richmond, il has decided
that treason is honorable and profitable; that
an attempt to break down this government
is so meritorious that what would be mur~

life, becomes bailable offence if done in
that attempt. The end sanetiies the me ans;

Primary Election.

Republican voters of Butler county are
aware of the fact that Saturday next, being
the lst. day of June, is the day on which
the primary elections for the nomination Of
candidates to be supported at the fall elec,
tions, takes place. ...... IL
1t is the privilege Of every Republican
voter, and no others, to attend these meet
ings and make choice of those whom he may
desire to support at the general election
1t may be viewed also as the bounden duty
Of every Republican yster to exercise this
privilege. 1t has been purchased and mains
tanned at great cost and sacrifices, and should
be highly esteemed and never, if possible,
neglected. Every Republican voter should
SO arrange his business as to be present at
our primary elections, and deposit his bal.
lot for the man of his choice. We would
then have full expression Of the party and
every citizen would thus far have performed
his duty, so far at least as the act of voting
is concerned.
Many of our Republican friends are
entirely too careless in the performance oi
this high privilege, Circumstances should
be very pressing and urgent to be o sufficient
excuse for a neglect of this high preroga-
tive. We would, therefore, urge the per-
formance of this duty upon our Republican
friends in every district Of the county. The
difficulties through which we have but lately
passed, as nation, show the Importance Of
every citizen doing his duty politically, az
well as religiously. We trust, therefore,
on next Saturday, every voteridentifed with
the Republican party in this county, will
take time enough to attend the primary cleo
tions, and thus express his preference of the
gentlemen now before the people 70 nomi-
nation.
