STRENGTH OF THE TICKET.

No Democrat can deny that the ticket
embracing the names OF Hileman of Tn
ion, Agnew Of jackson, and Oberly OF AL
exander. nominated in the Democratic
convention OF the 18th inst, is strong in
the Fiftieth senatorial district. 1t is so
strong that even though Messrs. Townes
and Albright remain in the field, it will
carry with it majority over all COM
petitors, whether Republican, or Demo
crats who were distasteful to the Demo-
cratic majority OF the district.
Reliable Democratic authority asserts
that Judge Hileman will carry Union by
2,DO majority, and Jackson by 400. 1t
is then the plain duty Of all good Demo-
Gratis who desire reform, and men OF a
high standard of honesty, to give their
support to ticket that certainly has the
unbounded confidence Of the bone and
sinew OF the Democratic party in three
counties.
Those who fear Republican victory
must guard against such calamity by
lhNft W tiC tt" tithtt
on account Of it, strength, its legitimacy,
and for the reason that IL contains
tie elements that accord with the
principles Of reform and pure govern
ment enunciated In the national Demo
cratic platform-principle upon which
the Democratic party is now waging Its
battle In the interest OF the people Of
the United States.
That Alexander county will give To the
true Democratic ticket splendid major
ity, we have not the slightest doubt.
Combined with the very large majority
Of Union, and the majority of Jackson,
the new ticket will carry the day in def
ance of factionists and In the face Of the
united Republican party OF this senatorial

The success which has attended the op-
crations for the removal of Halletts Point
reef under the direction of Gen. Newton
associates his name SO Intimately with
the scene OF his labors that We gladly ac-
cord 10 him the honor which the fame of
his achievement must bring. Some men
have Tor their monuments mountain
peaks that they only gaZed at from "a dis
lance; others are remembered as the dis
cOverers OF rivers and BAYS which
they did not explore. Pixies Peak,
Baiiin'sb bay, Bchring strait and Macken-
zie river are instanced as examples
Of this custom of naming places and OBJ
jects after the individuals who first
brought them into notice. But with how
much propri,ty might we honor in this
way the men who shape and fashion, ex-
cavate and build for the benefit of inan-
Kind more than those who merely dis
covered the existence of wonderful places
and things! And after all such "a GUS

ence on the effort TO attain success In
every undertaking dependent for its re-
suits on individual intelligence and skill.
On the one hand would be held out to the
aspirants for tame the honor of having
their names forever associated with grand
successes, while on the other hand failure
through inability to perform the task
would be followed by the ridcule and
censure of all time to come. No man can

him when his work is the theme of thou
sands of approving tongues. The UNI

him for the tolls and anxeties that bcset
him in his hours Of trial. lie has sue
ceeded. and that embraces everything.
General Newton has triumphed over
difficulties that would have defeated less
experienced engineers, and the measure
Of his triumph must be in proportion TO
that of the obstacles overcome. He de-
serves therefore to enjoy the fame he
has so we'll won for himself and for
American engineering. So let us mark
Newton's Channel on our maps of the
East river for the future, and as the
general widcns and deepens the watery
highway. winning at every blow
broader and firmer footing on the do
main of the rocks and reefs Of He'll Gate,
then will the grim terrors Of the famous
passage give way and disappear before
the steady growth OF the commodious

all. Honest men all. Who could wish
to see a single name erased or biotted

ticket which appeals with peculiar

WORK OF THE ALLIANCE.

still continues TO inflame and anger the
Germans to such an extent that they are
