reading. Here is an extract from his letter
accepting the Democratic nomination for
Governor:
"Now, as formerly, think it wise to
use calm and moderate methods In dealing
with questions OF State. 10 adhere Scrupu-
lousy to constitutional forms in enforcing
the will of the people, and to make haste
slowly with revolutionary reforms. But
may be pardoned if, in view OF hesitation
which fingers here and there, | declare my
especial satisfaction at the position adopted
by the Convention in respect to the later
amendments to the Constitution Of tue
United States. l am heartily glad to see
good citizens who have disputed the plan
Of adjustment required by the party in
power, so long as 1t was debatable, acqui-
esce cheertully when once it has become
irrevocable.
alt seems to me to be the part of pa
triotism now TO accept honestly and with
out mental reservation those amendments
as the final settlement and pacitication Of
the civil war, and then to turn resolutely
away from the irritating and painful mem.
cries of the past TO the pressing duties of
the future. That future, If we wisely i'm
prove it. may be made to redeem, and more
than redeem, all the sutferings and all the
errors OF the past. 1t may warn us to
guard jealousy the invaluable habit Of
local self: governments, while we yield to
the Irresistible instincts Of national unity.

A Treatise on the Common and Cigil Ldao,

author of the Constitutional History OF

VooRHIS & Co. 1871.
The Federal Government is monopoliZing
all the powers Of ruling within itself. Its
courts which, before the late war, were
subjects OF Indifference even to lawyers,
and scarcely ever heard of by other people,
have now drawn into the whirlpool OF their
jurisdiction almost every kind of offence,
and have become more imposing and more
inportant-and more dreaded-than the
State courts.
This Is a treatise on both the common
and the civil law; the study OF which Lat.

the more necessary because of the gradual
Of our Government. Judge

The Newest Departure.

The Louisville Ledger, Democra'le
paper. which has always opposed the nc"
departure, comes out in favor OF nominal
ing moderate Republican for PRESIDENT
Hear il:
uTherefore we submit whether, as The
xt best thing, The Democratic party u.
an organization, had not better remain ou'
of the contest, and let GRANT be confront
ed bv a Conservative Republican upon d
platform of universal amnesty anu revenue
retormY Such a course will commit the
Democratic party 10 nothing; viii not
COMPROMISE its principles or cstop IL rom
asserting them when an auSplc!ollS Time
shall arrive. II i, certain that 10 pursue
this course no Democrat VIII be caiieo
upon to vote Tor any candidate on pi''-
fol m stronger than The Ohio or fcnnSyiTa-
mia resolutions. If the Democrats should,
in general convention. adopt the INC"
departure, it would be the mcrest mock
ery TO nominate Thurman OF lend
rcks. or any other Democrat OF the
old school. The candidate must he Il rep
rcsenta;ive aud exponent OF the platform.
Our judgment is clear upon this poInl II
the Democratic party present atlcket III all,
it must present Democratic ticket, upon
Democratic platform. If we are to have a
semi-Rad1ca platform, and vote for tit
exponent of it, we prefer that both candl-
date and platform shall he given us by those
claiming to be Conservative Republicans
in which case the integrity and orSanIZa-
ton of the Democratic party will not be
disturbed, and we shall not be involved in
surrender of principles. We would not have
the Democratic party cast aside it's princl-
pies and enter into n mere scramble after
spoils. Let others have the spoils of office,
so that we can defeat Grant and break the
power of imperialism, if we cannot now
win in square Democratic fight"
This suggestion is at least worthy OF con-
sderation. The Government should by
some peaceful means or other be rescued
from the hands OF the corrupt men who
now prostitute It's powers.
