TINE disoord in the Radical rank.

THE discord in the Radical ranks
continues to increase. The Phila-
delphia Union Pilot warns "Mr.
Blackburn, and especially Mr..
Fletcher, that if they do not cease
to take issue with those whom"
that paper "may elect TO advocate,
they will find that glass houses are
still vulnerable and susceptible Of
demolition" The Pilot man butted
his head against Mr.. Fletcher once
before, and came off second best
but we have little doubt tn at he anC
Blackburn will subside now.

The report of the proceedings Of
the Radical State Convention yes
terdays printed elsewhere, shows it
to have been the most turbulent,
disgraoo[nl body that ever assem-
bled in this State. The report sug-
gests itsown commentary. The epi-
sode must have been seen to be fully
appreciated, butthe graphic descrip-
ton our reperter gives Of the wild
and tumultuous scenes enacted in
the capitol, conveys an idea OF
what may be properly termed
Radical beer garden. 1t
is useless to speculate as to what
all this will amount to. Unless
the members meet in better temper
to-day than they did yesterday
theyo cannot hold together long.
Better dispense and let every man
who wants to be Governor try how
popular he is. e4a wE

In the convention yesterday,
Senter's friends charged that the
friends Of Stokes had entered upon
a deem laid conspiracy To throw tho
control of our State affairs into the
hands of a triumvirate, composed
of Stokes, Butler and Cate. On the
other hand, the Stokes men charged
the Senterites with all the crimes
of the loyal decalogue, which are
sympathizing with rebellion and
wanting office. Tho Senter party
had the advantage in argument
the Stokes men in numbers.

A HISTORIC picture was presented
in our State capitol yesterday. A
party having charge of the public
administration assembled to per-
petuate their control and appoint
future rulers for an oppressed and
outraged people. An imperfect
photograph is given in our columns
this morning. No human in
vendon can do it justice. It is
like a sunset, which defes art but
twill be remembered as the most
exquisite burlesgue on lf-govern-
ment in the annals of mankind.

THE Loudon Union Pilot seems
to think there is some sort of an
irrepressible conflict between Gov.
Senter and Secretary Fletcher, and
so fearful is it that the latter will
usurp the functions Of the former,
that it advises Senter to affect ga
little of the Napoleonic virtue, "
and depose the contumacious Sec
rotary of State.

ADVICE TO NERVOUS PEoPLE.-Irritable nerves
are best soothed, not by indulgence, but by
turning the mind resoutely in another direction.
Many pass through life without one close grasp
of their position or duties, or even without
studying the best means of attaining their own
desired ends. Such are more likely than any
others to become victims of tyrannical nerves,
and are often grossly unreasonable, from the
habit Of not using their judgment. Above all,
real, earnest labor will put to flight vast train
of nervous troubles. Few who are vigorously
pursuing life work of importance are greatly
afflicted with nervousness, and these few may
often trace it to the lack Of wholesome living
and fresh air. due regard to the laws OF
health an earnest purpose in life, and regular
employment are the best preventives for the
evils of over-sensitive nerves. Training and
self-respect will induce US to suppress fears, and
to conquer weakness. Acts of resolution will
teach courage, and systematic infusion oil
vigor and self-discpline will render the whole
nature superior to the indulgence of tyrannical
and enfeebling nervous system.

And the world goes it went before

TELEGRAPHING IN FAC SIMILE.-The London,
(Eng.) Post says:
Where may we expect discoveries in electricity
to stop? An invention, not many removes from
one for telegraphing portrait. is said to have
been made by Mr.. Meyer, an official engaged in
the French telegraph service. He has discov-
cred plan for telegraphing fac simile. The
details are not given, but if what's published is
q Fact the new system is as wonderful as the
electric telegraph itself. There is no transmitter
wanted the sender of the dispatch is his own
clerk The message itself does the duty of the
Interpreter, and controls the electrical power so
as to make it perfectly faithful. That which
the Meyer system gives us is not a copy more or
less exact, of the message sent to US it is the
fac smile of our correspondents writing so
that, thanks to this apparatus, telegraphic dis
patches will present, so far AS regards exacti-
tude and authenticity, al! the guarantees now
found in postal communications. If this is not
an enigma, ard does not refer to some kind of
cypher-and there is reason for thinking that
it does-Mr. Meyer will be among the famous of
the future. We further told that the appar-
atus is at work on the railway from Paris to Ly-
ons, and the lines from Paris to Marseiles and
from Paris to Bordeaux will soon be provided
with it,

OBsCENITY THE Ruins OF PoMPEH.-There is
one matter in relation to Pompeii that is seldom
touched on by writers, and which dare not ap-
proach too closely to wit the horrible depravity
of the Pompeians, as illustrated by the frescoes,
mosaics, sculptures, and bronze statues that are
found. Hundreds of those vile objects have
been carried away to the museum in Naples, ar
put into a room which no woman is allowed to
visit but there still houses in Pompeii that
kept locked, and others that have such
sculptures over the doors on the outsides that
the guides hurry past them when there
women in the party. Even in private houses
there many scores of frcscoes, magnificently
executed, too, which one would dare to visit
only in company with his dearest and nearest
friends, if ladies, and in other houses pictures
and statues than which none can imagine any
thing | cannot understand why writer's
on these subjects have been SO anxious to con-
ceal the faults Of the ancients. 1t is fact that
deserves TO be generally known. Great God !!
what a picture of corruption in Imperial Rome
is revealed to one who looks into Pompeii with
anything like thoroughness. The very stone of
the door-posts tells tale more damnable than
ever invented by modern thought. Sodom
was clean and Gomorrah pure, compared with
Pompeii. Where there people on earth,
before or since Pompeii, that advertised I" the
ways that leads down to HE'LL" by sculptures
placed in the open light of the street! Out,
damned spot ~ cried the still infant genius of
modern civilization and Christianity, it
looked in upon Pompeii, and Vesuvius, re-
sponded to the command, and set his consuming
fires to do the work.

A Chance Meeting.


Two ships upon life's boundless sea
We meet 1--WE hold the self same way,
few short days, then coInpasses
Compel our parting, we obey.
Yet, for some time miss the ship
That by used to heave and bound
Upon the waves nor DER them catch
From off that deck the welcome sound
OF captain speaking to his men,
OF voices answering to our cheer;
Nor creak Of rope nor flap Of sail,
Speak sympathy unto our ear.
lAway, the friendly vessel cleaves
And we hold on our usual course;
little sad our heart-strings feel
Our pulses lack their wonted force.
Though never more, perchaDce we meet
That stranger ship upon the main,
Is there no port whch-peril past
VI winds and wayes-we hope to gain?
Where, lying safe from angry storm,
We fl nd at last that ship more,
And greet her inmates heart to heart,
AS if old friends, upon the shore?
Surely, friend it may be SO;
Though thou and have parted hands,
We meet again with firmer clasp,
LIES ocean crossed, on Heavens sands.

chronck old bachelor il invariably ov the

offer tew bet that it amt so.
They are like dried apples on a string-want a
good soaking before they will do to US.
| suppose there il sum of them who have,a
good excuse for their nuterness; many of them
are too stingy to marry. This iz one of the best
excuses know ov, for a stingy man amt fit tew
have nice woman.
Some old bachelors git after firt, and can't
travel SO fast as she doz, and then konkiudes all
the female group are hard to ketck and good
for nothing when they are ketched.
A flirt is a rough thing to overhaul unless the
right dog il after her, and then they are the
easiest ov-awlsto ketch, and often makes the
very best ov wives.
When a firt really falls in love, she il as
powerless as mown daisy.
Her impudence then changes into modesty,
her cunning into fear, her spurs into q halter,
and her pruning hook into a cradle.
The best way to ketch hrt il to travel the
other way from which they are going, or sit
down on the ground and whistle some lively
tune till the hirt comes around.
Old bachelors make the firts; and then the
1irts get more than ever by making the old
bachelors.
A majority of the firts get married finally, for
they have great quantity of the most dainty
tidbits of womans natur, and alwuS hev shrewd-
ness to back up their sweetness.
Flirts don't deal in poetry and water grewel
they have got tew have brains, or else somebody
would trade them out of their capital at the fust

CULTURE OF HORSE RADIsH.-A cores
nondent of the Florist and Pomolngist says
that in the culture of horse radish there are
two principal points to be carefully followed
in order to insure success. One is to prop
erly prepare the sets for planting, and the
other to secure a we'll prepared bed of rich
soil to grow them in. With regard to the
preparation of the sets, in digging up the
roofs he directed the men to save all the
long roots about the thickness Of goose
quill from these he selected the straighest
and shortened them to the length of one
foot. From these every perceptible eye was
removed EXCEPT those close to the top, and
also all the fbres, with the exception OF
those close to the bottom.
Having thus prepared sufficient number
of roots, he made holes nine inches apart,
in diagonal direction from the sides to the
centre Of the bed. sufficiently to take the
roots without bending, and into these they
were inserted, and the earth pressed down
upon them. Then by the way of catch
crop, he planted a row of caulifiowers down
the middle, and one on each side of the bed
The sets were planted on the 18th OF April,
and On the 18th of October, six months
from the time of planting, he had roots
equal in size and superior in quality to any
that he ever got from beds Of the third year.
