vention up to the last minute before tue

WE are gratifisu 10 learn that Mr..

is gradually improving. Nevertheless,
1t must be admitted by all persons pos
sessed Of common intelligence upon

such nature as to seriously threaten
his future usefulpess In public life.

THE latest arrivals from China with

settled determination or the part OF
England to reopen the whole question
connected with the murder OF Mr.. Mar
gary, concerning which much negotia-
tfon was had between the Chinese au
thorities and the British Minister. Ii
moreover now appears that England
having meanwhile prepared her naval
forces for the issue, has resolved on hos
tfIities against China. Inasmuch as the
Nargary case was considered as closed,
and the Chinese government had arrest.
ed and executed his assassins, and had
paid the full indemnity agreed on, 1t is
net easy to see why or how England in.
tends to make that case present cause
OF war.
It may probably be that England
Aakes this hostile attitude as counter
afritant to the Turkish imbroglio, with
the view OF distracting the attention OF
Russia from the Servian revolt. AS
Russia has great territorial interests on
the borders OF China, including the
great valley Of the Amoor, this move
ment on the part Of England, may have
more than ordinary significance in its
bearing upon European affairs In theii

To A LooKER-ON there is much of in
tefest in the personnel of the Convention
shat is to assemble to morrow. With
some experience in the observation Of
such things ana such occasions, We feel
gratiiied to observe that, taken as a
body, the delegates now in Cincinnati
present one of the finest collection Of
men we ever saw assembled ON such all
occasion. We are pleased to note among
them very considerable spripkling Of
gray heads and frosted boards, showing
that this great Council is not to be con-
trolled entirely by the young and the in
experienced; but that the wisdom OF
years is to be mingled with the impetu-
osity OF more youthful life.
Another thing is most worthily notice.
Rble,-there is not sign of rowdyism
nor drunkenness seen anywhere among
the delegates. They are ardent, enthu-
Siastic men, all working like beavers for
their fayorites; but amid all the ardor
and excitement, there is no drinking nor
Bigns Of drinking discoyerable among
them.
From every indication 1t is safe to say
that when tie Convention assemblies to-
morrow, there will be congregated in
Old Exposition Hall one of the finest
bodies OF men ever convened on like
occasion. And this must be regarded.
not only rs most creditable thing fet
the Republican party, but also as good
omen for the welfare of the country.
OUR JOHN SHERMAN has lifted up his
proclamation to the world that he is not
afraid OF the newspapers; and that he
doesn't care . continental - for THEFT
criticisms. Nobody had questioned
JOHNS intrepidity, and yet he volun-
teered to boast OF his sublime courage
1t is precisely on such occasions that the
boasters courage becomes questionable
1t is the case OF the boy whist.ing while
going through the graveyard. 30, upor
this boastful predicate, Mr.. SHERMAN
based his motion to increase the posta
charges on newspapers and other peri
odicals from and cents per pound, tt
4 and 8 cents, according to classifica
ton. He did this defiant act he said, II
order to increase the postal revenue o
the Government. Now, granting tn,
veraeity of MIR. Sherman's boast, that h
hath not the fear Of the newspapers be
fore his eyes, and that he ia moved ant
fnstigated by burning desire tosweH tn
Income Of the postal service, he ought tt
have common sense enough to know tina
his plan will not accomplish his pur
pose. But, whatever sum total of cour
age he may possess, that requisite
amount of common sense he eyidentl!
has not.

NaIl0mell loral Mems.

On Friday last. as Mr.. E. E. Morse Of Bethel,
with his wife and three children, were on their
way to visit their relatives in West Gardiner, they
were overtaken by the violent thunder tempest
Just before reaching the Androscoggin river at
North Turner, where they intended to cross. See
Ing the shower approaching with indications of
tornado, Mr.. Morse hurried along in order TO
reach the shelter of the covered bridge in advance
of the rain Fortunately the shower outstrpped
his heated and tired horse and striking the bridge
in its fury sent it whirling from its foundation and
dashing it in fragments upon the seething current
of the river, without regard to property rights or
public accommodation Mr.. Morse was obliged
to seek another locality for crossing the river;
and notwiths landing delay and extra travel he had
good reasons for thankfulness that his horse was
not quite smart enough to keep pace with the
tempest and the storm. The bridge will undopbt
edly be reconstructed at an early day.
The yacht "Nelie," with detachment Of the
Hallowell Cornet Band, started for clown river
and all along the Shore a pleasure trip, at
about three o'clock on Saturday morning last.
Echoes of the 'meilow horn" reused the denizens
of our river front as the boat was threading the
yielding waters toward the sea. The boys cannot
fail of enjoying their annual vacation and attend
ant experiences.

Brief.-The essential novelty is that of so pivot

engaged, it will swing downward and hit into a
recess Of the door jamb; the construction being
such that the sliding headed bolt, when in engage
ment with the notcics of the slotted plate, serves
to secure the door at the desired angle without
closing it.
