Gratis should be party organisation. The
gift of an office should be made see
Ondary matter. Our observation Is, and
we think all candid men will agree with
Us, that an enduring organization can
only be had through patriotic partisan
fealty; and to place the party In that
condition is, we trust, the design of all
good Democrats. The candidates to be
nominated by the result of such pri-
mary election, rs we have above indi-
Gated, will have "walk over" and
then the party i'm the district will be
put in magnificent trim for the struggle
of next November, and thereafter will
he kept in "a condition for all exigencies.
We shall hope for grand rally, of
Democrats on the Sd day of July-for n
harmonious result-a good ticket and u
hearty acceptance Of the will Of the par
ty by all defeated aspirants, as well as
their friends. Any other result will be
a sore disappointment to us.-IfdCes-

SALADO, BELL. Co., May 9. 1850.
Editor Herald:
Our county is one of the best In the
State for agricultural purposes. Our
crops look fine. Corn is not surpassed
anywhere. Wheat will average twen-
ty bushels to the acre-harvest time is
here-sOme are cutting oats. We Were
blessed with fine rain few days ago,
though it did great damage in some
localities, being accompanied by ter
rifle storm. which blew one of our
neighboring towns asunder, fatally
wOunding several persons.
The cattle stir has Commenced. There
has been over 1000 driven through our
neighbOrhood going to Kansas.
The political caldron is just beginning
to boil in this county.

addition to the tariff measures and the
Refunding bill, there is imperative ne
cessity for some action In reference to
counting and declaring the Electoral
vote and recognizing the great impor-
lance of determining this question, some
of the leaders on the majority side will
oppose fixing date for final adjourn
ment until joint action can be had on IA
rule to govern the>two lIullses in decid-
ing upon the method of disposing of
objections which may be raised i'm the
joint convention to counting the Flee
toral vote of any of the States. a joint
resolution introduced by Senator Nor
gan is now pending before the Senate
Committee ON the Judiciary, and an
effort will be made to have it brought
before the Senate at an early day. These
who advocate final adjournment before
June !, proceed upon the theory that
unless the session il brought to "a close
before the meeting of the National Re
publican Convention Mt Chicago, it will
run, perhaps, until August lst, or even
later, and that the time after the adj
jOurnment of the Chicago and Cincin-
natl Conventions, instead Of being de-
voted to the legitimate business Of Con-
SieoSi VIII NC UCupicu HI hiuhtiiS ijditi-
san speeches for service in the fall cam
paign. Ii is the desire to avoid this
which gives strength to the movement
to secure final adjournment before the
day fixed for the meeting of the Chicago
Convention. Regardless of any express
sions that may be given, the question of
when Congress will adjourn is one of
the things that no fellow can answer at
the present time.
The initiatory proceedings i'm Mr..
Christiancy's petition for divorce from
his young wife have been taken and the
papers i'm the case were filed on Wednes-
day. +. c. Ingersoll, Esq, of this city,
and Congressman Willets, of Michigan,
are Christiancy's attorneys, and the bill
is said to charge among other things in
fidelity with two Congressman as the
ground for divorce. A cross-bill will be
filed with the answer, i'm which Mrs.
Christiancy will ask for divorce on her
part on the ground of gross cruelty.
Friends Of Christiancy say that beyond
isolated instances of irritation, caused
by his well-f0unded jealousy, this ale
CATION cannot he sustained, and that
even if proven ii is no bar to divorce for
adultery. The answer will be COM
plete denial of the latter charge, and
the complainant may expect a pretty
warm reception from at least one of the
parties he charges with being puticeps
criBsinis. The lady is living with her
parents, who keep boarding house
here, and appears To take the matter
very cOolly. PHONO.

liminary remarks nominated Mr.. +. C..
Hubbard of Kentucky, to be temporary

GENTLEMEN OF THE CONVENTION
For the distinguished honor of being
called to preside over your deliberations
allow me to return my sincere thanks.
We have assembled as Republicans
who earnestly desire the success of the
Republican party. Ii We loved the Re
publican party less, there would be no
sufficient motive for the gathering of
this vast concourse of people. We
come together, then, rs men who be-
lieve that the Republican party is the
best agency to preserve those magnifi-
cent results which were the necessary
consequences Of our great civil war.

Telling Fortunes bv the Hand.

Always choose the left hand. One
of the lines, aud which indeed is
reckoned the principal. is called the
line of life: this line encloees the
thumb, separating it from the hol-
low of the hand. Next to it the ma
tural line takes it's beginning from
the rising Of the middle finger. The
table line, commonly called the line
of fortune, begins under the little
finger, and ends near the fore6nger.
The girdle of Venus, another line,
begins near the joint Of the fore
finger, and ends under the middle
finger. The line of death is count
er line to the line of life, and is by
some called the sister line. There
are also lines in the feshy parts, as
in the ball of the thumb. If the
lines which are in the middle of the
hand, and are called the table lines,
are broad and fair, without being
broken, the party will lead q happy
and comfortable life. II the line
from the wrist goes straight up to
the little finger, it is better sign
than if broken, for then it denotes
the party will live to a good old
age; but, on the contrary, should
the line want continuation, he is in
danger of sudden death.
If the line Of life, which is that
which runs from the wrist by the
ball Of the thumb, and ends under
the fore-fnger, is clear and ends
without breaks, it denotes possess
sion. prosperity and happy old age.
Round lines, like semi-circles on the
inside of the tips of the fingers,
promise houses, lands, and Inherit
ance.
As many lines or crosses as q wo-
man has in her wrist, so many chill
dren she may be expected to have.
If the middle or table lines in the
hand are very narrow and contract
ed, it is sign Of ofpoverty and crosses
in the world. If q crooked line
goes through the table line, it is q
sign Of sudden death; but if it runs
straight through, it is good sign.
If the line Of fortune strikes from
behind the ball OF the thumb, or
mount of the foreihger, across the
pain ana line 81 life, and loses it.
self in or near the soft or feshy
part OF the hand, on the little finger
side, it is a sure sign of fortune,
through some unexpected friend.

B. f. TAYLOR has written letter
to young girl at au academy in
Lowville, New York, wherein he says
81 call you little girl, but it is not
the fashion any more. The girls are
gone, and there is nobody left but
young ladies'. I like girls best.
There used to be flock of Carolines
in Lowville, and as fair flock as
ever wore muslin. There We're Cor.
nelias, James, Elizabeths, Marys and
Paulinas. They were all girls, and
they never scorned the title. Now
they would be Carries aud Nellies,
11izzi-s, Mamies, Jennies and Cor
MICS, and young ladies withal, every
daughter of them. Let US not end
our names in ie.' Let us lot forget
that affectation is the art of being a
fool according to rule. Let lis learn
to work the worsted cat of impossi-
ble pink. if we must, but let us learn
bow to make Indian pudding and a
golden loaf OF corn bread as we'll.
Let us talk French if we can, but let
US. avoid slang as we would pesti-
Nace and famine. Pure and unde-
filed English never sounds so musi-
cally as it does from the lips of q
genuine girl"

JUDGE JERE BLACK ON TnDEs.-
Judge Jeremiah Black of Pennsyl-
vania, being asked his opinion on
this important subject, gave it in
that terse Anglo-Saxon language OF
which be is q well-known master, to
this effect: In my judgment, Mr..
Tilden is the most potential man in
the Democratic party. If the party
is 80 ungrateful as to sacrifice him,
it must have q care in the manner in
which it does the business. His
was not carcass to be hacked for
the hounds, but a dish to be carved
as fit for the gods. No Democrat
can reach the White House by step
ping over the political corpse Of Mr..
Tilden. Talk about conciliating the
seventy thousand men-of at least
very doubtful character-who trail
torously de6ed the decision OF the
party Convention and bolted Cover
nor Robinson! Would it not be
better to pay some regard to the six
hundred thousand tried and true
men who Loyalty stood by the ticketf
No. no; Mr.. Tilden may consent to
be sacrificed, but without his con-
sent the feast will be one of funer-
cal meats"

One Mickey, of Boston, has just
rendered his fellow-men an inesti-
mable service by producing an ap-
paratus called "The Married Mans
Indicator" or the patent Domestic
Barometer. This ingenious device
is simply a wonderfully sensitive ar
rangement of the ordinary barome-
ter, which infallibly detects the most
minute alterations in the atmospher-
ic conditions. The married man,
returning late from the alleged
LODGE" or other locality contra
band of war, INDUCES in no fearful
speculations as to his reception.
He simply takes his Indicator"
from it's case and inserts projec-
ton, arranged for the purpose,
through the keyhole. Instantly the
domestic temperature within is re-
corded by the dial. If it marks s.
F.-set fair; S. A.-sound asleep;
or even G. S.-cross but sleepy-he
brings his rropitiatory box of fried
oysters we'll to the front, ohews a
fresh Glove, aud boldly enters. If,
however, the faithful little instru-
ment reports S. B.-storm brewing;
or V. S. Livery squally with light
ning-he doesn't waste any valuable
time in warfare, but hies him to the
nearest hotel and sends an "up-all.
night-with-a-sick-fri friend" note, with
some matinee tickets and new bon
net, home in the morning. Truly,
if science keeps on in this way, this
world will become quite q comforta-
BILE place to live in.
