Judging from the opinions thus
lar expressed, it seems clear that fthc
action Of the State Executive Com
mitteo in calling the Democratic
Convention for the 10Th inst. meets
very considerable Misrepresentation,
In several counties, Delegates have
bcen chosen, with instructions to
advocate a postponcmcnt Of tho
nominations for the present. \ sig
nifioa1it feature of the orposition
now showing itself is that il is not
confined to amy particular locality
and is felt by both "str;ught, outs
and coalitionists. We trust that tn,
sentiment thus showing itself will
bc we'll represented in the State
Convention, and that that BODY will
adjourn for the present without
making any nominations for State
officers.

for ihe majority Of the people that n

A FLOWER That CHANGES Irs
LoR.--Botany is q division OF
natural science which treats OF
plants, and study of Vegetable
Physiology must be the foundation
of botanical krowlcdge-a study
only possible by the improvements
in the microscope md in organic
chemistry. AS plants arc not
scnttered haphazard over the earth,
botanical geography must be stuli
eel, and, with this, plant-historv.
Botany may be applied to the wants
of everyday life, as in Agriculture,
horticulture, or Medical Botany.
Animals often exhibit n marvellous
instinct i'll soliciting medicinal herbs,
and an observation of their habits
has often, even in the present time,
led to most valuable discoveries,
And should man, with his knowl-
edge and appliances, fail to discover
less than tho brute ! 1t is of Mcdi
cal Botany wo would speak, or of
the HEpATINE PLANT, discovered in
Southern Nuhin, the Flower of
which changes it color with every
change of the atmosphere. The re
markable changes and variations of
this Plant and Flower have been
for years our special study, result
ing i'll the discovery OF it's posses
sion of wonderful medical proper
lies, the exisionce and value OF
which have heretofore been cutiroly
unknown to medical scionco. After
much labor and scientific inv ,stign
ton, we have succeeded in extract
ing it's peculiar medicinal principles
which aro q specific and cure for all
diseases Of tho Liver, Stomach and
Bowels; n permanent euro for
Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Spleen,
Constipation, Jaundice, and a!l
Bilious Complaints. OF course wo
cannot send living Flower of this
Plant to all who read of Hepatine +;
but to all who will send their
address to MERRE,L e CouDEN,
Philadelphia, Pa, with o three cont
stamp for return postage, VIC will
sond FREE facsimile Of the Flower
that will change its color just the
same as the real Hepatinc Flower.

THE SITUATION.
As the New York Papers See 1t.
fErnY,n ba Tiu,ao Of

(From the Times OF Yesterday)
Itnow depends on the action Of the
Supreme Court whether Wade Hamp-
ton shall take the Governors seat in
South Carolina, by virtue Of the gross
oppression in Edgefeld, or whether Mr..
Chamberlain shall keep that seat by
virtue Of large majority of honest
votes. 1t is curious to note, too, that
this decision rests with Judge Moses,
who is said to have been rendered hos
the latter in keeping the Judges SON
the "Scoundrel GoVernor"-otf the
bench OF the Supreme Court. When the
Governor did this the Democrats were
greatly pleased, but they will not hesi-
tate to accept any advantage they can
gain from the resentment aroused by an
act of official virtue. Such is the
"chivalry" of the South Carolina gem
tleman OF the modern kind. In Its es-
sence it is meaner than the meanness OF
the most sordid tradesmen. Happily,
the Electoral ticket is beyond the juris-
diction OF the Court. The Legislature,
however, will be Democratic unless the
Canvassers are allowed to guide their
action by such evidence as they have
heretofore considered without objection.
In that case, there is small hope that
Gov. Chamberlain will be allowed to
In the power of the Legislature to grant
or withhold. On the whole, the preten-
sion OF the Democrats to be the only
ones who seek after an honest election
is not sustained by the facts.
EFrom the World Of yesterday
1t is to be observed that the Republi.
can Committee does not pretend to deny
or gainsay that the Tilden Electors have
some 5000 majority of the ballots &C
tually cast In Louisiana, the counting
of which the President asked them to
inspect; nor indeed does any responsible
person controVert it. But the country is
told that the Board proposes to nullify
and destroy this majority, by ex-
cludipg ballots asserted to be illegally
cast. On what facts the illegality is 10
be based the committee does not tell the
country, but Governor Kellogg has
pointed out certain counties as the the.
ater of illegality, on account of intimi
dation practiced by one Frank. Powers
and others on negroes. But as to Pow
ers and his ruffians, Senator Bayard as.
serts that it was amply proved before
him by Republican witnesses that Pow.
ers was an officer of Kellogg, hired by
the latter expressly to thus intimidate
| the negroes.
From the Tribune Of yesterday.1
Mr.. Pinchback is keeping sharp eyt
out for his own chances in Louisiana
and declares that il the election of tn,
Returning Board Is legal his election al
Senator is also legal, both being crea
lures of the same Legislature. Tht
argument is shrewd one, but its per
sonal application is abominable. Mr.
Plnchback is distressing enough as
claimant; let him be satisfied with thi
bad eminence.

criticisms are the best and the wesse,
They are generally very good or eASt
very bad, showing the critic does NOT
understand what he is writing aboHt.
Few artists object to severe criticism
unless it is abusive-if 1t shows know

foolish things said that are annoying.

Sig. Brignoli here showed his teeth,

Of molars, but they had not been made

In reply to the inquiry if he intended
to return again to Europe, Sig. Brignnh
thought not. He imagines that nexi
season, or at least the season after, WE
shall have the. finest Italian Opera Com
pany that has yet been in the country,
as the people are ready tor it and wiliipT
to pay for it, because they are beginning
to be able to appreciate it. Brignolr2
physique is in SPLENDID condi lion, and hti
voice retains its marvellous beauty, aHd
his method is much improved. This has
been fully shown by his admirable sing,
ing during the past week. He is stin a

all cOmers, and there Is no reason to
suppose but that in the immediate futurH
of Italian opera in this 60 untry he viii
play prominent part.
