TnE JUDICIARY CONVENTION.
From an editorial on this subject from
the GAINESVILLE Chronicle, In the olden
time one of the ablest Wing journals in
the State, in response to an article of the
Banner defending the position assumed
by MIR. Ewing, we make the following
extracts: @ 3D. eEz
Conventions are often essential not only
to effective organization, but to the very
existence of party itself. And if, as now,
party be struggling against large odds,
to secure the social and political rights
that have been wrested by the hand of
tyranny, from those who have long held
them under the most sacred Constitutional
guarantees, no such sgency,as conventions
should be lightly discarded or hastily con-
demned.
The party in opposition to Radicaiism,
is now engaged in precisely this sort of O
struggle And as this will not be denied,
we ask if the great body of the people,
who have suffered, in property and rights,
through the villainy of bogus judiciary,
are willing that two or three dozen aspi-
| rants to the Supreme Bench shall, by the
division they must create, secure the
election, to the high position, of even one
Radical foe to liberty and the constitu-
tion2 The one desire of the people, just
now, is to see the judicial ermine stripped
from the reelzing carcass of decaying
Radicalism. How is this grand object to
be accomplished? From the nature Of
things, it is impossible that the people of
the entire State can assemble in mass
meeting and, declaring their preference,
secure The harmony essential to success.
Then the nerest approximation to the
wishes of the people is to be attained
through the agency of primary meetings,
and the delegates sent from them, to a
general convention.
We have not undertaken to
advocate Conventions generally, or under
all circumstances, but this particular one,
as q means of securing harmony of action
under trying crisis in State affairs; and
especially would we advocate it under the
threat of aspirants TO disregard its action.
Indeed, such threats are an additional ar
gument in favor of any means calculated
ty secure that harmony which is endan-
gered by an advance-defance of the az
gregated expression of the popular will,
for, as such, we are bound to accept the
decision of Convention gotten up in due
form.

THE GREAT
SPRING AND SUMNER TONIC.

Medical treatment has been revolution

made that RENOVATION, NOT PROS

PHILOSOPHY. The introduction Of
PLANTATION BITTERSs prs-

Celisaya Bark, opened the eyes OF the
world to this great fact. The hfe-scs-
tanning principle embodied in this great
Vegetable Restorative is manifested In

ate and most encouraging change SIT
the appetite has failed, It Is quickened;
if digession has been painful and imper-

strengthened and restrung; If the brain
has been haunted by morbid fanciea, thsy

In one Of his speeches, or talks, " while

Wa. an abundance of silver and other
precious metals. These being upon the
land allotted 10 him, and CHS tribe be-

Of the ''wLites," he begged the "Great
Father Ohat means Mr.. GranO TO protect
him and his tribe in their possession. We
low see it stated that, within two days
after the speech was made, no less than
five Yankee companies, set in motion by
kilograms from prominent members of
Congress, were upon the ground, explor-
ing and prospecting. A bill to ''extin-
guish the Indian title" to these lands is
in course of preparation for presentation
to Congress; and undoubtedly we shall
soon hear of the organization of some
stupendous mining company, with Con-
cressmen holding irresponsible and pay

one of the reasons why Mrs. Lincoln

NGENIOUS INVENTION,

The eyes of one of the brethren at
Calvary Church were recently closed.
The trick was done by Dutchman.
The brother had a house to rent. Ii
was located opposite to downtown
graveyard. The brother refused to
rent il to a person having children
As the Dutchman had no less than
thirteen of these expensive blessings,
he was slightly non-plussed. Being
himself a member of the church, il
was impossible for him to lie. As no
church member ever yet lied, our
Teutonie friend did the next best
thing-he came Quaker over the
brother. When making application
for the house, he took with him his
entire tribe of olive branches. He
turned them all into the graveyard to
play. He then opened up a negotia-
tion for the occupancy Of the premi-
ses.
"You know the terms ?" said the
Calvary.
"Yah, 1 know der derms.p
"And you're satisfied with them?"
Satisfied? YAH"
You have no children?n
"AIine shildrens with a sound that
came as near to chuckle as to a sob
ish over dere in dat graveyard" The
Dutchman sadly pointed across the
street.
Poor fellow" said the Calvary
brother; livery sorry for you. Sign
the lease, and here's the key"
Last Tuesday the Calvary brother
called for his rent. He found one
youngster racing through the hall
way, with the cat harnessed to fry
ing pan, while another was drumming
"Shoo Fly u on the banisters with a
pair of potato mashers. Fancy his

CONFEDERATION OF THE MATE
RIAL UNIVERSE.

Startling theories concerning the
heavenly bodies are not unfrequently
advanced. Among these, is that of
some scientific men, who think that
the planets are all gradually tending
toward the sun, and must, at some
distant period, at least, be rendered
uninhabitable, and meet fiery end.
The following is attributed to writer
in the Edinburgh Reriel1.
1t is absolutely certain that all plan
etary matter is inevitably graviating
toward the sun, which will be the
common bourne of our system. "As
SURELY" eloquently writes Sir VIII
liam Thompson, 'as the weight Of a
clock run down to their lowest posi-
ton, from which they can never rise
again unless fresh energy is commu-
nicated to them from some source not
vet exhausted, so surely must planet
after planet creep in, age by age, to-
ward the sum-" not one can escape It's
fiery end. In like manner the stateli-
est of the planets must inevitably fall
into their respective planets. As, then,
it has been proved by geology that our
earth had fiery beginning, so 1t Is
shown, by an appeal to the laws Of
gravitatiOn, that it will have q fiery
end. The earth passed from
the incandescent into the habitual
state, and will have its individuality
annihilated by falling into the sun, if
it be true that it also is revolving
around some enormously distant cen
ter of attraction.

ing in our foot! The right leg was
asleep. Limping forth into the open
air, relief came to our heart. The
being out of doors had always an in
eXpressible charm, and never so much
as on Sunday. Away went the wag-
ons. Away went the people. The
whole green swarmed with folks
The long village streets were filled
with company. In ten minutes all
were gone, and the street was given
up again to the birdsl
Little good did preaching do me un-
til after / was fifteen years old-little
good, Immediately. Yet, the whole
Sunday-the peculiar influence which
ii eXerted on the household, the gen.
eral sense of awe which it inspires,
the very rigor of its indifference from
other days, and the suspended anima-
ton of its sermon time, served to pro-
duce upon the young mind a profound
impression. A day that stood out
from all others in hard, gaunt way,
might, perhaps, be justly criticised
But it left its mark. 1t did its work
upon the imagination, ifnot upon the
reason. 1t had power in it: and in
estimating moral excellence, power is
an element of the utmost Importance.
Will our smooth, dry, feeble modern
Sundays have such a grip on the moral
nature? They are far pleasanter.-
Are they as efficacious? Will they
educate the moral nature as much?
