Again the story is revived that
in a certain contingency the New
York legislature will be convened
in extra session and the bill be
passed providing for the seleo-
ton of presidential electors by
the legislature. The contingency
this time is said to be the loss
Of Ohio and Indiana by the Re-
publicans in October. This is
another false alarm. The result
of such a move, under such cir
eumstsnces, would be to make
the North as solid for Hancock
as the South is, and none are
better aware of the fact than the
Republican managers. MI. Conk'

Republicans, while willing to SEE

"Disgraced in the eyes OF the

The Brandon Republican is an
earnest advocate of matrimony,
and gives the following advice to
young men:
Marry as soon as you are
twenty-one, provided You have
a trade or profession that enables
you to support yourself. If you
can support yourself you can
support wife also. If you wait
to get home for her the proba-
elor, the most wretched and
despised of all human beings.
Occasionally q bachelor saves
money and gets rich, but it is
only when he denies himself the
comforts and pleasures of life.
Again We say, marry young.
Widows and widowers ought to
marry within one year after they
become such, because, having
tasted the sweets of married life
they are never happy or con-
tented until they do marry again
Never marry for money, because
that often takes wings and flies
away. Tt is generally best tc
| marry one in your own station ir
life.

The Times of New York con-
fesses that Gen. Hancock in his
Every frank and explicit letter on
the question of rebel war claims
has spiked another Republican
gun, which gun the Times has
concluded to abandon. Speaking
of Hancock's letter, it says:
"It does not sneak behind a
forced construction of the 14th
amendment, but declares his per-
sonal purpose in regard to legis-
lation which the amendment does
not cover. The assurance which
he gives does credit to bis
honesty and his independence,
and is one which every intelligent
citizen, whatever his politics, will
rejoice to receive. The country
can now devote its attention to
other and graver issues between
the two parties, of which there is
no lack, and as to which the po-
sition of Gen. Hancock is com.
pletely identified with that OF his
party"

lFrom the Stanton Vindicator.
On Wednesday evening last,
at the headquarters of the Han
cock and English club, Hon E.
John Ellis, of Louisiana, made
one of the most mastery ad-
dresses We have ever listened to.
His speech which occupied an
hour aad 8 half, was replete with
sound logic and ehasts rhetoric,
and it was the opinion of all who
heard it, and was remarked by o
gentleman at the close of the
meeting, that it was superb
magniicently superb r It was
pronounced by numbers of the
audience as they left the room,
"The best thing I ever heard!"
"Neyer heard such a piece of or
atory in my life!" and number
ess utterances of like nature.
It was generally regretted that
the opera had not been selected
for Mr.. Ellis address, as the
club room was altogether made
quate to accommodate the au-
dience, a large number of people
standing out during the whole of
the time in the pouring rain.

thusiastic Democratic meeting
held in this State. and the ap-
plause which greeted the gifted
speaker could be heard squares
