Nominating Conventions.

Who takes an interest in the election of
delegates to these conventions This is a
question CT some moment when we consd-
er that their nominees, on one side or the
other, are nearly always elected. AS a
general thing, the self constituted candi-
date, or the nominee of "many voters"
has no chance whatever. From time i'm
memorial a certain class of newspapers has
been trying to get up what is called third
party, by which they probably intend to
be understood as meaning party, not of
measures, but of men, II OF of politics, but of
personal merits. These virtuous newspa-
pers, which always claim to be indepen-
dent, are so far from being friends to cor
ruptiOn that they cannot be bought, and
never sell themselves body and soul to
carpet baggers and lottery gamblers, and,
being thus immaculate, they look with

The contest for a handsome silk dag between

80 far, to be in favor of No. 2, but
we suppose that during the coming week
the friends of No l will make effort
to put that Division in the van. 1t is but just
to suppose that this will be the case, in view of
the great interest Father Smith has always
taken in the welfare of Division No l.

A DOUBLE MARRIAGE.-On Thursday last, in
the church of St. John the Baptist, Rev.
Father Kenny united in the holy bonds of Nat
rimony Mr.. John McNally and Miss Jane Wark,
also Mr.. Samuel Perrault and Miss Mary Wark,
all of this city, except Mr. Perrault, who is an
enterprisiDg young merchant of Natchez, Miss.
The two brides were sisters. From childhood
up they were the JOY of happy household :
two of the most thoughtful and devoted of
chiIdren-active, accomplished and pious.
They excelled in the varied arts of housekeep-
ing Home was indeed made bright, and
mother and father made happy by the sweet
words endearing deeds, and exemplary be-
havior of their attectionate daughters. Models
of perfection in the gracefulness of action and
proprety of manner becoming Christian wo-
men, these young ladies were ever pointed to
as persons whose lives were a source of great
edifoation to others of their age and sex, and
whose works and ways were most worthy of
imitation.
They lived always together, and loved one
another with true sisterly devotion. They
sang with voice, they served with one will,
they loved with ono heart, and God has willed
it that they should go forth together at one and
the same hour to be married in the one fold, in
the one faith, and with the blessings of the
priest of the One God
Tears of a pathetic sorrow were freely
mingled on all sides with those of copjugal joy
and congratulatory salutations. So strange
is the blendings of the sad and the gay in the
human soul Eugene de Guerin has sweetly
said that we can never expect to be wholly
happy in this life because it is not Heaven :;
nor yet entirely unhappy because it is the way
to Heaven.
The blessing of the Church followed the
young people to their new homes. "May their
ways be the ways of pleasantness and all their
paths be peace"

The Martha Washington Tea Party was one
of those delightfully."- entertaining events which
only an unusual combination of happy cir
cumstahces can produce. Fn itself a master
piece of spectacular effect, it was presented
before the most crowded and brilliant audi
euce that ever assembled in the Opera House.
The charity which prompted the design seem
ed.to pervade the whole affair with a spirit of
beauty and harmony, which impaired tone
and character to the occasion that we have
never seen eXcelod. The selfsacrifcing per
formers in the court scene and the minuet
were applauded to the echo; the pictures ne
tableau of Washington crossing the Dele
ware was unexpected addition to the pro-
grRmme for which the Continental Guards
were cordially thanked and encored the music
by the renowned German Military Band was
peculiarly we'll appreciated, their " Cloud
Building" pot pourr being gem in its way, the
decoration of the refreshment tables was a work
of art, conceived by siebrieght's tasteful gen
Jus and the evident fascination of the audience
was, by itself, at once the triumph aud ade
quate reward of the noble efforts put forth
by some of our best and loveliest ladies in
aid of the most helpless, hapless, and innocent
of the community. The peouuisry result was
equal to the artistic and social success, and il
was never more needed or deserved.
Unavoidable circumstances prevent us from
publishing the details of this elegant affair
but We shall probably present in our next issue
. record for the perpetual memory of the
thing"
