NOMINATION LAST APR1L.--Some of
our County contemporaries have express
sed the opinion. that those Republicans
who received the nomination for differ
ent offices last April, should be declared
by the approaching County Convention
the candidates at the approaching cleo
ton, without again being subjected to
the ordeal Of running the dominating
eantlet. The only offices made excep-
tional by this suggestion, are the Treas
urer, Prosecuting Attorney, and County
Surveyor. The men chosen are good
Republicans--honest and capable men,
and the party could not do better than
to let the choice, so far as they are con-
cerned, rest. The only question in our
mind is, will an endorsement of these
men by the Convention, secure the una
nimity of the party in their favor that
is desired? If there is any doubt on
this score--if, after such endorsement,
other persons shall insist on their priyi-
lege of being candidates for the above
named positions, and their friends shall
vote for them at the nominating cleo
ton, and, having received the plurality
of votes emitting candidates for other
offices to become the party's nominees,
what binding force will al endorsement
of the Convention have to prevent this
second crop of nominees from running
at the election, and thus endangering
portion of the ticket Looking all
over the ground--being favorable to the
parties Of last Aprirs nomination, and
more than all other considerations, re-
garding the harmony Of the party al

than that ALL THE OFFICES shall be sub
jected to the same process Ct nomina-

Burning Of Morrison's Opera Hall.

Monday night Morrison's Opera Hall
was crowded with people, assembled to
hear Coughs lecture. About ten min
utes past nine tia attention of persons
in the audience was attracted by the
smell Of burning wood, and presently
smoke began to fill the Hall. Soon It
became evident that the building was on
fire. Fortunately there was no panic
and nothing approaching panic. The
audience melted away as fast as they
were satisfied that the building was on
fire. Everybody had the good sense to
abstain from the cry Of fire, the doors of
both entrances were opened and the
large audience got safely out of the
building without accident of any kind
In the meantime the alarm had been
given and the engines came to the res
cue. The fire as yet was smouldering.

of the magnificent building was one
mass Of roaring, seething flame, and it
became evident that there was no hope
of saving the building, while the intense
heat endangered the new building Of

Of flying sparks, carried by the wind in
the direction of the livery stables along
Pearl street, made it exceedingly prob

that of General T. A. Morris, just NJ til

STANTON AND MORTON.

The following editorial, relative to
these genuine patriots and statesmen,
we clip from the Lafayette Courier, and
adopt and endorse it: goes
.'The two civil officers who are tosday
recognized and appreciated AS the
great positive forces that gave impulse
and direction to the armies Of the Union
Turing the war, are STANTON and Nor
ron. Throwing all their energies into
the conflict, with patriotic ardor that
knew no bounds, they inspired both the
people and the soldiery with their own
zeal in the great cause Of liberty and
human rights. The one has but recent
ly been housed away in the cemetery,
the other fingers, an invalid, with but q
remote probability Of ever being res
tored 10 vigorous health. sam 4fo
At the outbreak Of the war STANTON
and MORTON were in robust health. Dis
ease had not then clutched them in its
palsied grasp nor shattered their physi-
cal constitutions. The unparalleled
strain upon their nervous systems, SUI
periDduced by excessive labors, was
too much for even the stoutest to ell
durc, and they began to sink beneath
the burden imposed. But such was
their devotion to duty and country that
they asked no relief, and though con-
scious Of the fact that they were short
ening their lives, they remained at their
posts. so long as danger required their
presence. g..
As the direct result of the excessive
labors performed, the anxiety endured,
Mr.. STANTON has gone to the grave and
Mr.. MORTON is confirmed invalid
Yet during all those years of tribula-
ton and danger, the great War Secre-
tary and the great War Governor were
followed with the foulest aspersions,
traduced from the stump and through
the press by the Coprerhcad enemies
of the country in the North, and con
spiracy upon conspiracy was organized
to assassin ate ,hem, and deprive the
Government Of their services. Nor
have the haters of loyalty and the foes
of those who gave their lives to the
service Of the country in the dark days
of its peril, ceased to malign and ira
ducc their characters.
among civilized people. enmi,y and
hatred 10 softened in the presence OF
death. Unseemingly and heartless as it
is. coppcrbead m alice holds nothing sa-
cred. The living and the dead are fol-
lowed with such malignant SANDERS and
vituperation, that puts to shame all de-
cency, and outrages all sense Of pro-
prieiy. They go down into the grave
they invade the privacy Of the family
circle, and handy private character
about, as if it were not sacred thing
Had STANTON and MORTON been less
active in organizing and putting forces
into the feld-had they been luke warm
and half hearted, like some Of the Dem
ocratic Generals in command, not &
tongue would wag against them. Thei,
fault was in the use of their great tai
ents and vast influence in aiding thu

Union know and appreciate their servi
ccs, and their memories and labors viii
