me IySt district.

We congratulate the HcpubllcanS,
not only Of the Fist District but of
the State, on the result Of the
Convention at Middlcbury. The
question was whether personal
animositicS ana .icalousicS arising
from the disposition of Offices
in the district, should be permitted
to throw overheard, at the cXpra
ton Of his first term in Congress,
an able, worthy and upright repre-
sentative, having the confidence of
the masses in Ills district, the cS.
teen Of his colleagues in the House
and Senate. and the respect of all
with whom he was brought in con.
tact with at Washington. This was
a matter i'll which all the State had
an interest, and in the settlement Of
which, hy the nomination OF Mr.
Willard for re election, all have a
right to rejoice.
The story of the Convention,
though it was in almost continuous
session for IA day and night, can be
told i'll very few words. After
months Of "liguring' and weeks OF
active effort on the part OF Mr..
Wizards opponents, the ConVcn
ton met. 1t had clear majority lol
Mr.. Willard at the start, even il
the questions of contcnding delega.
tons had been decided against him
That majority increased with every
hour. The nomination Of Mr.. W il
! lard could be delayed 10y various
! tactics, through the day and through
the ~ int but it could not be de
tcated. His friends would not be
tired out and the result was his
nomination 10y acclamation "a dozen
dissatisfied gentlemen having pre-
viously left the Convention which
they could not coutrol-Wthout any
other candidate having been pre-
scented to the Convention. There
were some curious things about til,
business. Among them was the
spectacle an cX member of Congress
who had had his three terms in
Congress, going into the Convention
and laboring with industrious but
futile malice to defeat his successor
There were honorable gentlemen
opposed to Mr.. Willard, in the dis
tlict and in the Convention, I,
whom we should bc far from imput
ing any unworthy motives. w,
, believe that such will yet, " hen til,
b present excitement and prejudice

that result would be, rs our column

NEW YORK STILL TRUE TO ITS coLoRs

The Radicals have their old excuse again
over their signal defeat in the New York
elections The vote, they say, was q light
one, and, of course, it was the RAIDS who
didn't turn out. It always is when they are
defeated, and if that fiat.ering unction gives
balm to their wounded spirits they are
welcome to the use OF 1T. The city of New
ork has been carried for the Democracy,
BY, On the Radical showing, IS, 900 maj jority,
and the ward having tbs greatest number of
colored voters gives the heaviest majority
for Church as Chief Justice of the Court of
Appeals. "Isu I it pitiful near q whole city
full" such things should be, and that the
African cannot be so readily used Is was
anticipated when they were read in as voting
cattle for the God and moral.
ity party. This gratifying re-
suit was obtained without any
row or interference, the attempt of the
RAdioa Is to get up bogus Democratic SEN
sstion against them having been frustrated
SO that they have not miserable excrse Of
PoA"oinS AahU4o6lon, anu coercion as an
apology for the result. The State also goes
democratic by an increased majority, and
the city of Brooklyn, shows bold front of
ten or fifteen thousand majority for the
Democracy. Every return as it comes in,
swells the list, and the Radical cause looks
more feeble, and more utterly prostrated
than the m ost sauguins conservative could
have hoped for. This election is the key
note to the Fall campaign, and it is plainly
to be seen that the hand of God has written
upon the walls of our Constitution the dread
tu! words: mene, meme, tekel uphar.in,
weighed in the balances and found wanting
Tue sceptre is departing from the hands of
the RumP, and the beginning of the end
drsweth nigh.

LONDON, May lS.-Relaxation from pub
tic cares and the invigorating nature OF the
air of Brighton combined. have produced a
wonderful change in the health of John
Bright, and MS physicians, by whose advice
the change of scene was recommended, now
pronounce him in condition of rapid con-
valescence. His full recovery of vigorous
health is shortly expected, but his medical
advisers counsel against any immediate re-
turn to public life for short season.
