While there seems to be great deal
of newspaper talk about whom shall
we run for Congress, Governor and
other State officers, l have seen moth
ing as yet in any of the papers about
a candidate for Judge of the First Cir
cult. There seems TO be a generally
expressed desire on the part of the
Union voters, and many others of the
First judicial Circuit, that his Honor
Judge Caldwell should be candidate
for re- election; in fact, public sentiment
is so potent in his favor, and character
lied with such unanimity, that, in my
opinion, the necessity of holding con-
yention for the purpose OF nominating
n candidate for Judge is entirely SUI
perseded. Judge Caldwell is an able
LAWYER and impartial Judge, and dis
poses OF the business of his circuit
without fear, favor or affection, and
with more celebrity than the Same busl-
ness was formerly done. 1t is certainly
not necessary to tell the people oil the
Circuit who Judge Caldwell IS, Tor

How To BE A MILLIoSAIRE.-Ast there

statistics, for one thousand men in the
United States to grasp 81 600, 600 year.
Or rather such n grasp is impossible,
for it would be a grab of all the surplus

no conceivable thousand men could

GEORGE PEABODY.
The Medal to be Presented TO Him by
the United States.
from the National Intelligencer, 2Sd.l

i the DhlLeu 6Gates-
From the National Intelligencer, 2Sd.l
at the last session of the Thirty
ninth Congress, the President of the
United States was authorized 10 pre-
sent to George Peabody, Esq, gold
medal, in consideration of his benifi-
cent gift of $40, 0OO, 600 to the South for
educational purposes, to be applied
without regard to color. The order for
the medal was given to Messrs. Starr 81
Marcus, jewellers, of New York city,
who designed il and executed the work.
It has been completed and received at
the State Department, and is decidedly
the most handsome and unique affair
ever made in this country, and, as a
work OF art, far surpasses any medal
ever presented by our Government. 1t
is three inches in diameter, and a half
inch thick; on the front is the profile OF
Mr.. Peabody, in alto TelieUO, and on the
reverse the following inscription: 1.-THE
people of the United States to George
Peabody, In acknowledgment of his
benificent promotion OF universal edn-
cation" It is mounted on base, and
to the right OF the medal are two pal
metto trees In gold, six inches high,
around which is twined the ivy, the
emblem of friendship.
To the left of the medal is the figure
of Benevolence, with one hand resting
upon the medal, holding in 1t spray
OF laurel, and with the other is point
ing to Mr.. Peabody. Under :the pal
metto trees are two children, one rep
resenting a white child and the other a
black; the white child pointing to Be-
neVolence, and the black one TO him
self, as ifsaying, "Am I, too. TO be ed
ucated2'' The base Is six inches long,
three-fourths of an inch thick, and one
and d quarter inches high, and the
whole work Is OF solid gold. In the
rear of the medal, resting upon the
base, is a perfect globe, which revolves,
and around this are hooks and various
instruments, representing the progress
of civilization and education. On the
front of the base is our national shield,
executed In enamel.
The medal is inclosed in handsome
cabinet OF ebony and birds eye maple,
lined with purple velvet, the top OF
which revolves when the medal is
placed upon IL, thus exhibiting 1t with
placing the hand upon It to change Its
position.
The entire work was made with tools
and not struck from a die. 1t is most
beautiful piece of workmanship, and
is greatly admired by all who have
seen il. Tomorrow il will. be exhibit
tied TO the Cabinet, after which 1t will
be placed upon exhibition by Mr.. II.
S. Chiffon, of the State Department,
who now has charge OF il, in the Capt.
toll or some other public place.

GOV. Geary,s opinion of gen. Grant


The National Union of Philadelphia,
on Friday evening, held the first of a
series of weekly meetings, to be con-
tinued during the campaign. They
were addressed by Ex-Governor Geary.
BE said that the ticket adopted at Chi
cago had not been excelled since the
days OF Washington, but he urged upon
his hearers the necessity for vigorous
work during the campaign, as the
party has willy foe to contend with.
or Gen. Grant he said:
"Gen. Grant has been placed on the
| ticket for the highest position known
to the American people, and he is we'll
deserving of it. 1t has been my prov
ince to know him for twenty-one years.
We were both young men together in
the Mexican war. He WAS the same
enduring hero then as he has proved
himself TO be in the late rebellion. l
knew him when Second Lieutenant,
was more stuff in him than was APP
parent upon the surface. He was
breveted as First Lieutenant there
for gallantry. BE left some time after
ward for home, but not before he had
been made Captain, We, as Penn
sylvania, have something to say OF
him. His father was from old West
moreland County, tho place of my
own nativity. L have often stood
upon the ground where he was born.
I know Grant well. It was my good
fortune to serve under him in the war
lust closed. 1 first served at Wauhat-
chic. I first saw then the power of his
mind as military man. tApplause.l
He first directed the assault upon
Lookout Mountain. he turned the
cannon upon Missionary Ridge and
Chicamauga, and obtained the victories
at Taylor's Ridge, near Ringgold.
1 want to show you what know of the
man that he may be acceptable TO you.
L know him well; / have dined with
him. and never knew him to touch
spirits of any kind. II believe there ts
no man who has been more ungene-
rously treated on that subject during
the last few months than Grant.
"On a certain occasion, when dining
with Grant at Chattanooga, after the
cloth had been removed ne called for
his maps, which he spread before me,
and said: sir, You and your division
have been instrumental In obtaining
the victories around this city. The
plan for the next campaign is already
formed, and It is proper thatyou should
know 1t. I intend TO concentrate my
troops around this place, and pour
them on Atlanta, while strong at
tack is made on Richmond. After At
lanta falls, q line will be taken for the
seashore, ending either at Charleston
| or Savannah; and having thus made
| our point, we will enter the CaroHnas
and attack Richmond. This was In
1868, nine months before the city OF At
| lanta was taken. Justice should pc
done, and tell you SO that you may
know who 1t was that planned the
march to the sea, and bisected the Con-
federacy and brought the rebellion to
termination" rt~E7s7r tsFf.E'
