As WILL be seen by reference to an
other column, the Congressional Con-
vention has been called to meet at
Sebree City, Webster county, on the
9Th of Sept. We think this as good a
place as could have been selected. 1t
is convenient of access by rail from
most all points in the district, aud Col.
W. H. Scott, proprietor of the Sebree
Springs Hotel, is amply prepared to
accommodate all the delegates.

We are authorized by Mr.. Spalding
70 say that he is in no way responsible
for the late editorial in the OwensbOro
Monitor, relative to Mr.. Mckenzie S
agitation of the religious question, in
which personal reference was made to
several prominent men in this county.
Mr.. Spalding saws he was not aware
that any such editorial would appear /;
did not dictate. approve of it, or have
any knowledge of it whatever until he
saw it in the paper.

We publish this week card from
Mr.. J. A. Mckenzie in reference to
the religious question, and also Mr..
Spalding's reply. We very much dep
recate anything like religious excite
ment in a political race, and hope the
gentlemen will both get out of that
channel, and pursue only the proper
and legitimate paths that lead politi-
clans to preferment. We do not pro-
pose to say which one of them is re-
sponsible for the religious excitement,
or that either is, for it is probable that
indiscreet friends of the gentlemen
have stirred up this turmoil.

Mansili's Almanac for 1875.

Our esteemed fellow citizen, Richard
Mansill, Esq, has just published an
almanac of what he calls, Planetary
Meteorology and New System of Science. "
1t is quarto volumn of 10 pages, neatly
printed by Barnhart, in this city, and is
full of planetary illustrations. etc., etc. Ii
his preface MIR. Mansill says:
1.-THE object of placing this Almanac
before the public is to introduce new
system of meteorological science. A
System that every person may derive 8
benefit, a pleasure and a satisfaction
from, which are not attaiDable from
''other works. This satisfaction will ap
pear at times by noting the rules as laic
down in this work, and the coincidinl
"meteoric results connected with them.
up to this date we have nothing but
''vagary or pane to show us what hold,
and regulates the planets and comets il
their orbits, or what produces chang,
in their motions, deDsities and volumes
''or the cause of such changes. and effects
shat occur at the times of these changes.
Mr. Mansil then proceeds at consider
able length to explain his system, ant
closes by saying
This work is intended to be of use an,
interest to the Doctor, the Farmer, tn
Mariner and all others whose welfare i
much affected by sudden and great varia
'tions in temperature and the weather
generally"
THE ARGUS does not claim suficien
scientific knowledge to comprehend MI
Mansilrs theories, his charts or his figure
they are something wonderful to behold
but there can be no doubt of his correct
ness when he says his system is "a ney
system--a system which are not attainabl
| from ether works"
The price Of the book is 81.

Tc-Norrow Night,

Duprez and Benedict minstrel troupe
never failed of good house when they
visited Rock Island, and tomorrow night,
at Darts Hail, will probably be no ex-
ception. The managers make point to
keep good men when they get hold of them,
some of the performers having been
with them ten and twelve years. The
troupe consists of an excellent orchestra, a
fine quartette, a good chorus. and some of
the best burnt cork comedians in the bust
ness. Fox and Ward, the song and dance
men are first class, and make much fun,
besides doing some real artistic dancing,
The singing by the quartette is better
than is usually heard in minstrel entertain
ments. Master Limo especially, has very
pleasing voice, and sings Little Robin
with much sweetness. Three short ex-
travaganzas furnish much amusement
giving ample scope to Price, Edward, and
others to display their funny peculiarities
They keep the house in roar of laughter
throughout the whole evening and the in
terest is never suffered to drag-one thing
succeeds another in rapid succession
