The Lafayette Delegates

In addition TO its usual nonsense,
the Caucasian Of last week INDUCES
in a little unjustifiable spite.in its re-
port Of the Carrollton convention.
That paper, We believe, has u license
to call respectable men "fcllows aud
nincompoop!;," the people ''asscs,"
and the members Of the Legislature
"~donkeys." such things are but
in keeping with its usual tone, and
whoever wishes to read il must make
up bis mind to endure them. There
10, however, one thing in the report
referred TO, which in justice TO the
respectable gentlemen who were del
egatss from this county, ought to be
overhauled. 1t goes on to say that
ION the first ballot Clark got 80
votes, including six OF the Lafayette
delegates. that would have gone
against him If the t%wo-thirds rule had
not been adopted" We should have
been glad TO ace the names Of the six
who were ready 10 disobey their in
structions. We know the thirteen
deleyates, all Of them. We acted rs
secretary OF the convention, and saw
nothing 70 indicate that they would
have done any such thing. On the
three first ballots, the vote Of Lafay-
cite county was cast solid for Clark,
~ well as on several other ballots
Afterwards. The Caucasian, how
ever, may know whereof II speaks.
IL 10, the people would like TO know
their names. Itis not probable that
those gentlemen would be called On to
represent the people again soop. In
strnetiobs have always been regard
ed "a sacred, and men who violate
them s.c not worthy Of public trust.

GREELEY ON THE DEMOCRATIC TICK
ET.-Robert Vance, of North Carolina,
lately came out for Greeley, and Illus
trated his position by a humorous
story of an old preacher into whose
hymn book some bad boy had pasted
the old song, "Old Grimes is dead,
that good old man, we meier shall sec
him more" On opening his book one
day, before sermon, his eyes fell on
this hymn. He read the first verse,
and stopped with surprise. He wiped
his specs and read it again, and said,
" Brethren, l have been singing out of
this book for forty years |; l have never
recognized this as hymn before, but
it's here, and ] amt agwine to 20 back
on my book now so please raise tune
and we'll sing it through If it kills us.
Now" said Mr.. Vance, 1--WE have
been singing Democratic hymns for
forty years down here, and we have
never recognized Greeley as a Demo-
crat before but if the Baltimore Con-
vention puts him in our hymn book,
we'll sing him through. If It kills u.s.
What makes the story and the illustra-
ton it conveys the more pipuant is the
of an editorial article,
consisting of three words, printed in
the Tribune on the occasion of GER
tain negative vote cast bya United
States Senator from Iowa, afriend of
Senator TrumbulPs, in late lmpeach-
ment trial. These three words were,

The Judicial Convention which met
in this city to-day, placed in nomina-
ton on the eleventh formal ballot,
Judge Robert Sloan, of Van Buren,
county. The contest was spirited, but
friendly, and never did Convention
have better men as candidates placed be-
fore it than did this one. Judges Tame.
hill, Dashiell, and Sloan, have all been
upon the bench and acquitted them
selves admirably. They are all gen.
tlemen of culture and ability, added to
the highest type of integrity. Judge
Sloan in his old circuit had the hcavi.
est counties, counties which cast the
heaviest vote, and had the most dele
gates, hence his success. His name is
run up at the head of our columns with
alacrity, and an honest pride in our
candidate for Judge.
