THE CONVENTION.

The convention held at Irasburg last
Wednesday, was very respectable in num-
Der and character. 1t was a good hay
day but many farmers left their hay
fields to participate in the deliberation
of the convention. There were several
ministers, number Of doctors, the usu-
al batch of lawyers that hover around
a gathering of this kind. and not few
Grangers- as the result showed, so that
all classes and professions were we'll
represented. The selection of eandi-
dates was good. Mr.. Wilson of Troy
was nominated for senator by aeclama-
ton. The farmers and Changers elasped
hands and elected H. S. Tolman, Of
Greensboro. for second senator. Nr.
Tolman Is thorough going business

and whose political record viii not be

1t was thought that it would be invid-
iOus to retain one and drop the other,
and so the two are retained. The choice
Of States Attorny fell upon Mr.. Thomp-
son of Irasburg, and the nomination
was very satisfactory to the convention
Mr.. Holdridge named for sheriff hal

THE GOLDEN CALF.

Starting with this as a text, the Rich
mond Va. Enquirer, of July %, dely-
ers an admirable homily, about thuswise
Our sympathies have ever been deeply
wrought upon by the Scriptural story Of
the poor Israelites who bowed down to
the golden calf while their leader and
law-giver. Moses. visited the mountain.
The general tendency and disposition Of
our race to worship at the same shrine,
is calculated to raise IN the heart Of any
observer the sentiments to which We
confess. The god. Mammon, seems to
be the reigning divinity in these days
and times. But the idea we would en-
force is, that such gud is, after all. a
very low and dirty sort of divinity.
Money comes in very well. We rather
like it And under ordinary cireum-
stances, We are willing 20 subject our
selves to almost any self-denial, provid-
ed we are supplied with a sufheieney of
greenbaeks to spend as our own viii
may dictate, or our own fancy may sug-
gest. But this is not to the point
While we respect and revere the man,
who by honest toll has accumulated
riches. and with lordly magnanimity
and high sentiment of responsibility
in his heart for the gifts with which he
is blessed. expends it for the good of
his fellows, we do honestly detest him
who has amassed wealth by a mean and
niggardly life, only to be used IN his
own self-aggrandisement and self-glori-
feation. 1t is true that the possession
of wealth carries with it certain power
and enforces the obeisanee Of the multi
tude, but after all it is not the man,
however mueh.he may be hattered in the
opinion,l but his money, which exaets
this homage. But when We regard it
from proper standpoint, it is palpable
that 1t requires no special genius. or
talent, or merit, to amass a fortune.
Any man who is willing to sacrifice the
finer sensibilities of his nature, his ease,
his culture, his every aspiration in any
other and loftier department of human
action. can amass a fortune.
1t is only question of personal sac
rifee- Let a comparative fool fix his
eye and purpose on the one object of
gathering wealth, and consent to make
the sacrifices and self-denial necessary
to that end, and he viii be wealthy.
These thoughts have been suggested by
the disgusting toadyism shown by the
press to such men as A. T. Stewart.
Whatever his private worth may be, we
are willing to eoneede. but that is Meth
er here nor there. His possessions, so
far as We are informed, constitute his
only special merit "a penny saved is
a penny gained is the sum of his phil
osophy- Nothing can be more disgust
ing than to see journals lending them
selves to his glori6cation, even descend
ing to the low truculeney Of describing
his habits, his mode of life, and even
the wines be may prefer to drink. Such
subservieuey produces nausea We had
as soon, aye, rather devote a column to
description of the life and habits of
any honest laborer who earns his half
dollar day. But men viii bow down
to the golden calf.

RED LION HID. DEMOCRATS CELEBRATING
THE VICTORIES.
The triumphant Democracy Of Red
Lion Hundred met at their Club House
in st. Georges village, Thursday evening,
November IL. 1874, TO celebrate the glo-
rious victory achieved at the late cleo
tions. The Clubs Of st. Georges and
Delaware City formed in line and par
aided through the town with fife and
drum, cheering the Democrats. At 8
o'clock a beautiful display Of fireworks,
consisting Of rockets, Roman candles,
batteries, &C., were set of in front OF the
Club House.
Walter Cummins. Esq, was then in
mented the Club on their fine display,
the Democracy on their gallant fight,
and the people in general upon the ben
efits to be derived from Democratic rule.
1At the conclusion ofiMr. Cunmins' re-
marks Mr.. William Reynolds was called
for, and responded in a short and peril
men. address, saying there was time to
mourn and time to rejoice; that for
fourteen years the Democracy Of the
country had deeply mourned q disregard
cd constitution, ,defied laws, ignored rights
overturned governments, disfranchised
citizens. &c., but now the time had come
to rejoice, and the recent Democratic VIC
tories were great cause for rejoicing to
all white people Of every State, as onee
more the Magma ChartG would be regard
ed, the laws observed, the peoples rights
maintained, &c. He then complimented d
the large collection Of ladies present, the
youth and beauty of Red Lion, thanked
them for their presece and promised il
they would be true to their race and col
or, but few young men in the future
would be found among the Republican
biack-and-tan.
In conclusion he requested that the
club organizations should be kept intact
and the campaign open for the election
Of 1876, when the Democracy hoped and
expected to place in the field for Presi-
dent Of the United States, Delaware's q
noblest son-HoN. THOMAS F. BAYARD.
This was greeted with round after round
Of applause, the men, women and chill
dren all uniting in thus testifying their
admiration for Mr.. Bayard.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Reynolds re-
marks the meeting adjourned with three
hearty cheers for the party, the meeting,
speakers and all. Much credit is due to
Thomas Bird, Esq, for this successful
and happy celebration Of the Democrat
ic victory in Red Lion.

Old sweties's church.

At a special meeting of the vestry of
Trinity Parish, held Sept. 18th 1874 o
letter from Rev. VIM. Murphy, the As
sistant Minister, was read. On motion
it was unanimously
RESOLVED, That the Vestry will
cheerfully increase the Assistant Minis
ter's salary as soon as the income of the
Church warrants the same
RESOLVED, That the Rector be re-
quested in the name of the Vestry to
secure the services of q Committee of
Ladies to canvass the congregation for
subscriptions towards increasing the
salary of the Assistant Minister from
its present amount 1900 to the sum of
$1,000 per annum.
Friends of the Old Church may hand
in their contributions towards the sup
port of the services to the Rector of the
Parish or to the Treasurer.
Since the re-opening of this church,
October 1st, 1868. Ia little over six
years ago) the Rev. VIM. Murphy re-
ports 307 baptisms, 70 confirmations,
8 marriages and 1877 burials. There
are 1875 communicates who regard
themselves as belonging to this church.
Divine Service Is celebrated twice
every Sunday, also on Wednesday
evenings and on the festivals OF the
church. There are about 150 scholars
in the Sunday School. The parishon-
ers unite heartily in the responses and
are jealous in every good word and
work. The organist, Mr.. Davidson,
deserves the thanks of the congrega-
tion for his fidelity and diligence.
