MASS CoNvENTIoN.-On Saturday,
March 18th, the Republicans of the
County are asked to come together
in Mass Convention and nominate a
candidate for member of Constitu-
tional Convention, and it is hoped
there viii st least be a reasonable
turnout to the meeting. It can
hardly be expected that we can sue
ceed at the election, but we can at
all events give the people the oppor-
tunity of voting for a man whom it
would be an honor to send to such a
body, and perhaps, by nominating
such an one, oblige our opponents
to put their best man in the field. If
we can even accomplish that it will
be worth while coming together

considerable discussion, which extended into
a night session, and resulted in refusal to

ing a committee for tho Impeachment of
Judge Delahay OF Kansas. The Legislative,

The bill to increase the salaries
of members of Congress, President,
Vice President, &C., DC, passed the
House on Saturday night last. By
this vote the members voted to take
out Of the Treasury 81, 800 each for
passed services performed under a
contract for that much less. Speak
er Blaine gave them a Btinging re-
buke, by insisting on an amendment
exempting himself from the opera
ton of the bill, but no rebuke how
ever stinging, could penetrate the
rhinoceros hide of Ben Butler and
those who rallied under his lead.
The people viii, we trust, administer
arebuke they will understand.
