The Radical STATE Convention.

The Radical State Convention assembled at
Georgetown, yesterday, and nominated DIR. Isaac
Jump for Governor and James i. Lo1and, Esq,
for Representative in Congress. The whole affair
was arranged and the procedure was a mere
formal operation.
Dr. Jump is O resident OF Dover, where he has
practiced his profession for many years. He is a
gentleman of agreeable manners, perhaps rising
sixty years of age, and is a member in full stand
ing of the NJ. L. Church. lie has always been
an opponent oil the Democratic party, and has
successfully favored and voted with the Native
American, the Know Nothing, the Abolition, the
Republican, and all other iactiohs since the de-
mise of the Old Wing Party. His qualifications
for the office is about such rs we might expect
from a country physician who had divided his
time between riding through the rural sections
within six eight miles of his residence ad
ministerng quadk medicines, and electioneering
for the nomination for Governor We believe he
has been the standing candidate OF the Radical
party IN Kent county since its organization; but
until now could never secure the much coveted
honor. Where professional skill was requisite
we have heard of hifa very seldom nevertheless,
like ColfaS he knows how to pat on n broad
smile, and no doubt hopes to win more votes for
the gubernatorial cher by his pleasant address
than by any arguments from the stump during
the campaign. OF course this will suit the bulk
OF those from whom lie expects to secure his
votes ss we'll as anything else.
The Representative in Congress, Mr.. Leland,
was not the choice of the party, but he simply
secured The nomination because it ives customary
to give q candidate for Congress a chance for re
election His Congressional record is so exceed
ingly dull that it amounts to nothing. lie at
tempted to make q speech of FIVE minutes while
in Congress from December 10 June; but it was
of so poor a character that the Commercial re-
fused to publish it and it found it's way into the
Republican, We presume, only because the former
declined TO print it, alter being repeatedly urged
10 do 50 by the GAZETTE. Mr.. Loil aud, however,
was known TO be i'll favor of ithc Civil Rights
Bill, and it would have been dangerous for the
Convention TO have pushed him aside, especially,
as like Capt c. II. Gallagher lie holds The key
TO an immense number of receipts for the negro
voters.
The resolutions are a mere I,Llsh OF what has
been talked of for several years. But every one
knows that Radical platforms are only made 10
catch votes, and are never expected 10 be carried
oat.
In view OF MIR. Lohand's Congressional record,
Mr. Bakers sarcastic remark about Delaware be-
ing properly represented was certainly very IN
fortunate. Mr.. s. will he more careful when
next he presides.
Oar reporter has given full proceedings else
where that will be found faithful and as accurate
as the confused manner Of conducting the Con-
ventlon would admit Of.

From the Railroad Gazette.
1t Is stated that this company has failed TO
secure from the Lehigh Valley the facilities
for exchange of traffic which were expected.
This result is perhaps owing to the opposition
OF The Philadelphia d Reading Company,
which has always worked against this road
and naa, the Wilmington q Reading Of which nc, the
has, however, succeeded in making an agree
ment for interchange Of business and through
rates with the New Jersey Central, and the
road is to be extended from its present termi-
uns at SIatington, Pa. to q connection with
the Ceniral's Lehigh & experimentation.
This extension, which will be ia miles long,
has been located and work is TO he begun OH

Central southern outlet for its coal, and will

The Postal Cars.

There is great deal OF excitement and in
terest in the Post Office Department over the
threat of Mr.. Hinckley to stop running postal
ears on the Philadelphia and Wilmington Road
from the first of August, unless the price is
increased. The Postmaster Gen eral has sub
mitted the question to The Solicitor who gives
the opinion that the Government can take
possession of the road if the threat is persist
ed in, and this the department seems deter
mined to do. But Post Office officials regard
Henckley's threat as mere bravado, and say
he makes more by carrying the mails than by
any other class of service, except for Adams
Express Company.

EARLY MARRYING.

. Morally, mentally and physically
early marriage is great mistake
among women; aud yet every day we
see this mistake sanctioned by the off.
ces of religion, blessed by the consent
of friends, and entered into with all
the ecIdt which should he reserved for
n triumph rather than trial. ,.,..,
Morally il is mistake, because few
women are fit, at an age when they
should be under authority, to rule a
household prudeutly since no atmos-
phere is so dangerous for an undeyel-
oped soul, as that of the almost abso
lutte power which is generally delegat-
ed to the young wife. She may nav
do whatever is pleasing in her own
eyes. She has heen freed from paren-
tai restraint, and any other has a cir.
cumIerence To untlefiUt d that it is mar.
rowed and enlarged according to the
will and moral sense pf she who draws
it. Angels might fear tnrwalka in such
broad freedom as is given by lnve
and suffsrance to the majority nf our

courtesy, childr,n in the regard OF
bnth law aud wisrlom. ,.. o.. ,..,.y.a.
Mentally it is ii mistake, because
with marriage all mental growth is
suspened in the large majority of W.
men. Educntiun being regarded us Il
means toward an end. il abandoned as
soon us the end is obtained 1t may
be argued that all education from such
II mntive is a mistake 30 begin with.
True, but then it is the one which
keeps the culpri in the society of wis.
dom, and it is Just possible the m.n1,
under such influence, might arrive at
a iuster cpncep;ion Of its worth and
value. 4t..tfr. .'...
Physically it is a mistake, because.
at the early age at which many mar.
riages are made, the human organize
ton has not arrived at perfected
strength, and duties and responsibilities
are laid upon it for which nature has
made no adequate provision. Vitality
is destroyed quicker than it is general.
ed, and rapid decay o. both mind and
b ,dy are the results. Then the woman
is said te die "by the visitation o
God," though in nine cases out of ten i,

of the laws Of nature persistently anc
violently broken. .a4t

The editor of Western paper once
gave notice of bail, aud happened
incidentally V tn mention that the dane

like"the cavorting of a fly bitten COW
in a field of cucimbers." Tne fact
that the editur had not been i,vited to
the ball may somewhat detract from
the value of the smile. while at the
same time it accounts for his establish
ing the figure. The major, accompa-
nied by his better half aud six shoot.
er, called on the editn: to complain of
the pneticAl nature of the image. On
learning thai the lady was the me he
had described, the editor hesonght her

INDIANAPOLIS.

Not excepting the zenith city of

"lndanapoIis is lovely village of

ton your vagrant fancy leads, freight
trains mark the horizon, aud bound
your Aspirations. 1t is good place
for the philosnphic mind. Its best
chauce is out of doors. The ciry is
adorned with parks. and the natives
think them without parallel. They
are right. The streets are straight,
crossiug each other at angles that al.
ways leave five corners. How they
contrive that extra corner is beyond
our power to fi,thoni. They have ulsn
street cars, which, in the most lHys.
lernus manner, always contrive tn run
IN the same direction, neve: in the
other. Every thing ab"ut indianapolis
