The County Convention.

The Republican judicial County
Convention to nominate candidate
for County Judge meets at the court
house at / P. NJ. to-day-just too late
to allow us to publish the proceedings
this week.
The prominent ca ndidates are MIR.
Jones, of Mifflin, and ex-Sheriff Wig
ham. between whom the chances are
not safe to bet on. Both are good men
and true. There are some facts in
regard to the claims of Mr.. Wigham
which deserve mention: He was a
prominent candidate in the county
convention last fall for Treasurer, re-
ceiving very fattering vote and had
his opponent been any one but " I'm
Gle Frank" he would have been sue
cessful. He was subsequently offered
the nomination for the same Office on
the Democratic ticket, but couldn't
see it." His course proved his true
metal. We are confident that his
nomination by the Republican party at
this time for Judge of Probate would
be wise measure, and one that would
give general satisfaction. We think
he is entitled to this recognition of his
fealty to party and principle, and of
the fact that he is prominent and de-
serving citizen. Others are no doubt
equally deserving and prominent, but
all cannot be served at once. Good
men can sometimes afford to wait-the
Republican party is sure pay.----We
shall give the proceedings in full next
week.

Religious Intelligence.

The spirit which watts abroad from
Gods throne and falls here and there upon
good ground has been falling in showers
at Mineral Point, Darlington and other
parts of the country. "And We hear the
sound thereof but know not whence il
cometh or whittier it goeth." The spirit
which is of God is manifestly not at tho
disposal of men, else it could be called
down and distributed to human favorites
But God, though no respecter of persons
unquestionably favors, sanctifes and saves

LUTHER & LoYoLA.-Luther and Loyola
were contemporaries, and the latter the
younger by eight years. Both were enthu
s:astic, ardent men, resolute and severe.
Both had gone through religious expert
ance not altogether dissimilar had
struggled with doubt and terror. with
remorse and shame. In their religious
trials they fancied that they saw demons
and spirits, and had held frequent con-
tests with their great adversary. Both had
labored for purity of life and had attain
ed it. Both lived as far as possible
above allurement of the present But
their differen were still more striking
than their resemblance. Luther was
learned. accomplished creative, poetical,
He had been profound student of Scrip
lures he had marked every line, inter
preted every thought; he labored night
and day to free his mind from the vain
shadows Of radiation, and to hear and
attend alone to the voice of inspiration.
For teaching of man he cared nothing;
he heard only the Apostles and the Di
vine Pl eceptor and hence Luther had
imbibed much Of the benevolent and
chsrity of the earlier Church But
Loyola was ever wrapped up in visions
Of Middle Ages. Unlearned and dog
matte. he saw only the towering grand
eur of Rome. He preferred tradition to
the Scriptures, the teaching of the Pope
10 that OF the Bible One article of faith
seemed to him alone important-the
primacy of ST. Peter. One text alone
seemed to him the key Of revelation
one doubtful passage the only source of
Christian life. To the primacy. there
: for, Loyola vowed obedience rather than
to the Scripture !; to the enemies of the
papacy he could assign only endless
destruction Hence while Luther's doc
trims tended to benevolence and human
, ity, those of his assailant must lead to
persecution and war the one was the
herald of a gentler era, the other strove
to recall the harsh traits Of Innocent
and Hildebrand EUGENE LAWRENCE,

TAKING DRINK.-I passed the winter
Of 1s4O-4l in the very hospitablo city OF
H-,where was 50 fortunate as to form
an extended circle Of agreeable acquainl
tances, who, by their genial and intel
ligent social intercourse contributed
greatly to my happiness, and enabled
me to while away the mono tony Of
protracted Northern winter ia the most
satisfactory manner. In the spring fol-
lowing, as was about to take my de- 1
parture, my friends called, and after
wishing me all manner Of good 4 rtune,
bade me adieu. and all, excepting my
particular friend j. s., had lett. He
detained me for some time upon the Ii: =
tie porch fronting the hotel. seeming
10th to say good bye; but as it was near
ly time for the arrival af the train I was
forced to tear myself away from him
and was on the point of stepping into
the carriage when ne entreated me to
come back and take farewell glass.
Twas Obliged to decline, remarking,
as I closed the carriage door, that we
turn; and away went. consoiing myself
with the fervent anticipation that l
might soon be permitted to revisit the
excellent friends 1 was leaving behind.
But, alas for the realization Of my cher
ished aspirations! my tortuous trail led
me into Texas, Mexico, Arkansas, and
U .Ah, and it was nearely twenty years
before l could got back. aa4E8W
the time came, however and anx-
iously drove toward the hotel, where l
expected to see great many changes;
but, to my surprise, found all the sur
roundings looking precisely as when
left, and to my utter astonishment there
was my old friend, j. S., who was
the last to bid me farewell, seated in the
same spot on the little porch, apparently
in the same arm chair, and with his feet
