THE Lebanon Herald pronOunccs
Gov. Porter "a man Of good judg-
ment and firm convictions, needing and
probably desiring no advice from
newspapers or individuals, as to whom
he shall appoint to the high Office so
suddenly vacated by the decease Of
Senator johnson. But" continues
the Herald, 'for want Of other en-.
ployment, we feel disposed to indulge
IN a few thoughts as TO what we should
do, were we IN his place" 1t proceeds
to express the opinion that none of the
aspirants for the position before the
recent Legislature should be appointed,
as Senator Cooper's term expires in
lS77, and the Legislature meeting that
var viii have two vacancies to
fila short term and a full term.
Meanwhile, were we Governor"
says the Herald, eve should give all
of them the next eighteen months in
which to lay their pipes, and appoint
TO fill the vacancy some man Of ability
who was not a candidate before the
Legislature, who is not a politician and,
if this be possible, who does not care
for the position. Such a course, it
seems to US, would be the wisest to
pursue, and would give more general
satisfaction to the whole State" Such
a man, it thinks, may be found in the
Hon. Robert L. Caruthers, Of Wilson,
who has in his time been a member of
the United States and Confederate
Congresses and adorned the Supreme
Bench Of the State.

Clarksvine Tobacco Leaf.
No man IN modern times possessed
in so high degree, the power of will,
of indomitable resolution. His high
est power was that of holding himself
to one line Of policy through life, des-
pite the difficulties which would have
appalled, and discouraged men of great
er intellectual capacity. His mind was
slow, and acquisition and thought were
with him painful, slow and plodding,
but sure, and his reasoning from his
premises generally correct. If he was
wanting In profundity Of view, and
knowledge Of general principles, which
form the groundwork of society and Of
government, he was infalhbly acquain-
ted with the instincts and feelings and
wants Of the people, their habits and
modes Of thought. He was conscious
Of and could touch springs Of which
others ere ignorant. To his honor, be it
said, he never forsook the class from
which he came. Others rise, as they
call it, and assimilate themselves to
new conditions and become part Of a
new circle, forgetting the very feelings,
and habits, and thoughts of their old
associations. He was still one of the
people in the Legislature, IN the Gu
bernatorial chair, IN the Senate, IN the
Presidential chair. While he acquired
as much Of the refinement, aud as
many of the habits, and as much Cf the
elegance of the new circles as his col
lossal, rugged character would bear, he
still felt, thought, and in the man,
talked and acted as one Of the people.
Rugged as was his nature, fer the woes
and sufferings Of the people, he had a
sympathetic chord no other class
could touch, and he shed for them
sometimes a tear no other could have
drawn from him.

To those young men WHO anticipate
emigration to the Western country for
wealth and prosperity, it might be ben
eficial to cite a few II stances Of Balti-
more boys already abiding there, and
the occupations at which they are en-
gagged. One drives au ice cart IN Den
yer City, Colorado; one peddies pr-ze
packages on a Southwestern railroad
one keeps a saloon at Topeka, Kansas;
one is a guide at Pixies Peak, and two
work as track repairers on one of the
divisions Of the Kansas and Pacific
Railroad. Tn sc are all sons Of re-

lean.
After all, is it not more healthy and
manly to drive an ice cart or work on
the railroad, than fritter away youth
and strength in city dissipation at the
expense Of the old folks? If young
men are too proud to work where they
are known, it is better for their own
sake that they Seek some place where
no such false notions Will restrain their
native energies.

Mr.. johnson is often condemned be-
cause he desired to concihate the South,
although at the time of his Inaugural
ton he favored a severe retributive
treatment toward the leaders Of the
States lately in rebellion. The incon-
sistency is evident, but the daring
which did not fear to be inconsistent,
and which dared to obey the sense OF
duty rather than proceed in course
which reflection had shown to be unwise,
is much betterthan consistency. With
