Justices Of the Peace.

There has been an impression abroad
that the several boards of county commits
sioners had the power to Gil vacancies in
the office of justice of the peace; and,
after the decision Of Judge Pricket last
Summer denying the power, 1t was sup
posed by many that such appointments
might be made by the governor. The ce-
cisiou referred to was to the ehect that
under section 1856 of the U. S. Statutes,
justices of the peace must be elected oy

some Of the states has more con-
vincingly proven that it was the
Democratic duty then, is now,
and always will be, to stand by
the great doctrine Of local SELF
government, to maintain those
FIGHTS of the states and their
people that are defined and
guaranteed in the constitution,
t to battle for free elsctions, for
the rights of the people to cast
their votes for the men OF their
choice, undisturbed by the FED
eral bayonet or the federal bull
dOzer,
The Democrats in congress do
not believe that a majority of
the people of any state in the t
union are opposed to local self
government. They do not be-
lieve that there is a state or
county in the United States
where people, fairly compre-
hending the merits Of the qqes-
ton, and having a chance to
vote on the direct issue OF cen
tralization, would not decide to
maintain the Democratic doc
trine of state rights as laid down
by the fathers in the national
charter, as defined by reported
decisions Of the supreme court,
and as held by the great jurlsts
Of all parties,
The Democratic masses thro'-
out the country may rest asSQr-
ed that their representatives are
not weakening in the faith, but
are fully and keenly alive to-
the fact that the true mission OF
the party is to preserve the Re
public from the destroying iRtlu-
ence of a political heresy as
dangerous to the stability Of our
government and the liberties OF
the people as the doctrine that
was overthrown and destroyed
in the throes Of civil war. They
will not halt, hesitate OF waver
in the struggle till they send
the heresy of Capitalization into
as deep a grave as was dug for
the heresy Of secession by a
million bayonets. That is the
Democratic spirit and purpose
that are manifested on all hands

principles for which they con
tended so gallantly during the
special session. They made the
fight then because they knew
that they were right. They
went into it with a full know
ledge of all that the contests
might involve, because, being
Democrats, it was their duty to
stand up squarely for Democrat
ic principles.
They have seen nothing since

begun atJersey City by the sink
inc of a vertical shaft. The tun-

depth of water it will pass un-
der is sixty feet.
A bill was introduced in con-
gress, on the Sd inst, to secure
additional payment to all United
States soldiers of the late war.
The claim is based on the fact
that soldiers were paid in a de-
preciated currency, worth CON
siderable less than gold, and it is
sought to obtain an additional
sum suffi cient to make the
amount paid them at that time
equal in value to the same num-
Der Of dollars in gold.
