for as thou has testified Of me in Jerusalem,
so must thou also bear witness at Rome
The reverend gentleman spoke of the import
apcc of Paul's visit to the Roman metropolis !;
of the mighty results which grew out of it.
When Paul went to Rome the severe virtues
of the republic had relaxed; Nero was en-
peror: the whole world had sunk into sleep
of yoluptuous Incidence. While in prison,
chained to Roman soldier, the apostle
penned many of his epistles. Although he
perished a martyr in the imperial city, yet
his brave teachings and heroic death were in
strumental in helping the cause of Christian
ity in Italy.

CHICAGO, June S.-The seats were not
more than half filled at 10 O'Clock, and it
was about 10 80 when the convention was
called to order. Without remarks or change
of programme, the convention proceeded to
the first ballot of the day. the 29th of the con-
vention.
The chair ordered the roll called and it was
proceeded with. When Alabama was an
nounced, its correctness was questioned by
a member of the delegation, and the chair
ordered the roll Of delegates called. One of
the delegates stated that colleague was alb
ent, sick, and had authorized him to cast his
vote for him, and he asked whether he could
do so. To this the chairman replied the roll
must not be interrupted and the question
would be decided when it arose. The roll
call went on, and when the name of Alexan-
der was called, and was responded to, the
question was raised as to whether the re-
Spouse had been made by Alexander. TWAS
admitted it had not been. A second dele
gate from Alabama, also failed to respond
and when the delegates were called, the
names of alternates for absent delegates were
called, and there was a response from only
one of them.
The chairman stated that in case of failure
of a delegate to respond, the name of the al
ternate standing opposite on the roll was
called and if he did not respond then the
name of the alternate from that district would
be called, and in the case of delegates-at-large
names of other alternates of that class would
be called. The vote of Alabama was an
nounced as Grant, l5, Blaine, l, Sherman, 3.
The result was to lose Grant one vote.
When Virginia was called the chairman
announced l6 for Grant, 3 for Blaine and
and 3 for Sherman. A colored delegate
tl,., 81, ll.l,
detail, when responded for Sherman, in
stead of 3, as previously announced Car
ter, delegate-at-large, was absent and an al
ternate responded for him. Subsequently
the delegate who had changed from Blaine
to Sherman, changed his vote back to Blaine
which left Virginia recorded Grant, lG,

Captain NJ. d. ingalls, of the schooner
"Chalcedony,'' Monhegan Island, has seen
the sea serpent. Abelief in the existence of
these sea monsters was INDUCED in from time
immemorial. Virgil tells us Of the priest,
LAGOON, and his battle with the serpents.
The ancient mariner from Monhegan tells
his story as follows: 'sIts head was at least
20 feet long, and about 10 feet through at the
: thickest point. About midway of the body,
which was, should guess. about 40 feet long,
were two fins, of clear white, each about IL
feet in length. The body seemed to taper
from the back of the head down to the size
Of small log, distinct from the whale tribe
as theen had nothing that looked like afluke.
The shape of the creatures head was more
like fierce than anything can liken 1t to.
l have seen most all kinds of shapes that can
be found in these waters, but never saw the
like of this before. Two years ago, on Sc
gum, saw, shooting through the water u
thing which think resembled this creature
considerably, but 1 didn't get close enough
to 1t to say for certain. The men from the
Cape Ann schooner got on this dead creature
and one of the boys cut double shuttle on
Its belly, which. for all the world looked Ike
the bottom of schooner covered with sea-
weed by the weather."

This court was opened at the Court House
this morning, prayer by Rev. Mr.. Penney.
No jury has been Summoned this term, and
all contested matters will be heard and dis
posed of by the presiding Judge. The trial
docket was so well worked off at the last
April term that few jury cases remained over,
and the judge determined that the expense of
a jury, this term might be avoided without
detriment. There will probably be ample
time at the September term to clear the
docket. Whatever of interest may transpire

term, is hardly worth making.a note of.

One of the richest things which has hap
pened for some time is the attempt by Charles
Mclaughlin to have the Journal indicted for
libel, for publishing an account of his es-
capade at the Railroad House at Belgrade
depot last week, in which he stove up furni-
ture. committed nuisance on the floor, and
made nighthideous. Mclaughlin consulted
several lawyers, but, strange as it may seem,
they did not crave the honor of acting as his
counsel. The fellow already has two indict-
ments hanging over his head; and we under
stand is to be punished to the full extent of
the law at the September term of court.
