An ARTsTOCRATIC DEVICE.

It is proposed by the Republican Central
Committee of New OrE that our ex-Presi-
dents and eX-ViCc Presidents be admitted to
life membership in the Senate upon their re-
tircment tiom Office. This proposition. how
ever, IS not likely to meet with much favor
from the American people. Il IS an aristo-
cratic device and contrary to the spirit of our
institutions. The adoption Of the plan sup-
gcsied would constitute a dangerous prece-
dent. lt was only four years ago that n
movement was lnaugurated 10 make arbitra-

make Senators for life out Of ex-Presidents

Carrying Pistols.

/. In the case'of the Commonwealth vs. Mich
ael Feonoy, indicted at Wilkesbarre for car
ryiug concealed weapons, Judge Woodward
in the cour.e of his charge to the iur5, made
use ofthe following language. His words will
be heartily endorsed by all good citizens;
81 may be proper to remark that the car
rying Of pistols and the selling Of pistols in
modern times at a very cheap price, is lead
ing to more crime than any other cause in
the community. AS long as dealers in ps
tolls are allowed to parade them on a pave
ment in glass cases and show windows fer
one dollar and half apiece, young men
will be tempted to buy them, and having
bought them and put them in their pockets
they are inspired by kind Of devil to use
hem on slight proyocation. | am very
.otry there is no law to prevent the sale OF
these internal and cowarlly weapons at so
cheap price that every body can carry
them. There is no more use of q man IN
This community, carrying a pistol in his
pocket than there is OF his carrying pound

CELERY-The complaints that come to
us of the failure of celery to keep this win
ter show that the trouble is general, "W.
II. b." Waterbury, Ct, thinks his trouble
was due to late planting, but as he does not
say when his was set out, we cannot judge.
But in general it is not necessary to go be-
yond the unusually warn weather to find a
cause. Celery will grow at very low tenn
perature, and the weather has been ior weeks
at time so mild that the plart would grow.
Growth in the trenches is fatal, for its roots
being out of the ground, whatever growth
takes place at the centre, must be at the
expense of the other stalks, which become
hollow and fabby. Besides this, in such a
mass OF Vegetable matter, the warm weather
will induce decay. Lovers of celery can
congratulate themselves that statistics show
that such awinter as thiswe are nov having
is rare.

Fourth of July and Patriotism.

With all that the schools have Taught
us, it is yet hard for many to realize
what patriotism is unless it be associ-
ated with noise, hustle, and confusion.
A great many people think they must
get together in crowds, where there are
plenty of peddlers, tin horns, and cider.
There must be powder burned at the
risk of life and limb, and there must be
a general letting loose of the animal
spirits. Of course most people under
stand the significance of the Fourth OF
July, vet the celebrations of this day as
often conducted, bring sorrow and mis-
cry to many. 1t is enough to lose
arms, legs. and heads, when the caiam-
ity of war calls for the sacrifice. But
in times of peace we do not need the
demonstrations of the war spirit, nell
Their does the sentiment OF PATRIOTISM
call for harrangues upon the SUBJECT. |
The true patriot has an ever-abldlng
sense of his duties to his country, plan |
ted in his heart, which does not need
The stimulation of hurrahs or powder. !
This sense is the same in principle that
he father has over his family-he is
eady to protect it with his life. We
would not, however, lose sight of this
lay or its significance. There is a sen
ible way in which to observe it, so
hat the memory may be kept fresh
md green regarding it. Let people
yet together in small bands, in pleasant
places, picnic-like-read the Declara-
ion of Independence, and make such
lifting remarks upon the occasion as
hey may choose. After this all will |
o home sober and rational, feeling

spent.

vanced that planetary action has great
deal to do, net only in creating physi-
cal but even mental disturbances. We
cannot tell the reader whether there is
any truth in this theory or Motive on
lv say he can have it as cheapiy as we
do.
Our doctrine has always been, how
ever, not to throw even a theory away
until it has been exploded beyond re-
surrection. because truth often comes to
us from where we least expect it, and
what might at first seem untenabie the
cries, may possibly turn ont strong
facts. That there are perfectly legitl-
mate causes for all the calamities that
occur. we have no doubt. If there be
ANYTHING that multiplies or repeats
them, beyend what the ordinary mind
can see, and which at present seem be-
yond human power to prevent, the on
ly possible course to take that we can
see. is to accept them with the most
philosophical resignation we can. But
so far as enlightenment will aid us re-
garding natural laws, we should put 1t
to the strictest and severest test in aid
ing us to prevent these dreadful calam-

The Essex county Republican con-
ventiOn met at Guildhall June 30, and
organized by choosing d. Fl. Beattie

ter some preliminary business, the fol-
lowing men were nominated for county
officers: For Senator, Harvey Jude

Probate, David S. Storrs States At
torney, A. f. Nichols Sheriff, Chester
W. Schotf; High Bailiff, W. NJ. Smith.
County and town committees were
appointed, after which C. W. King ad-
dressed the convention, speaking OF
the issues which would come before the
next legislature, and particularly OF re-
ducing state expenses and taxes. lie
spoke of the address of Senator Ed
munds before the state convention,
heartily endorsing both the address and
the man. At mention of Edmunds the
convention gave hearty cheers. The
convention was also addressed by Hon.
Jonah Brooks, setting forth at some
length the principles of each great ma
tional party. Harvey Judevine was
then called upon and spoke of his po-
Iitical principles in general and OF the
csurse he would follow if elected to the
office for which he was nominated. 1t |
was voted that the next convention be |
called as n mass convention.

Did Hancock Do TIP

There is n remarkable story now go
ing the rounds of the newspapers, the
substance of which is, that Gen. Han
cock wrote a letter to Gen. Sherman In
1876. saving he believed Mr. 11lden
was legally elected President, and was
entitled to take the oath of office In
some other place than Washington.
And furthermore, as an army officer, if
he should receive orders from ''Presi-
dent TiIden" at midnight of March Sd,
To sustain him III the presidential office,
he should obey the call with troops. 1t
appears that Gen. "Baldy" Smith first
gave utterance to THIS story at Il Drm
ocratic conclave held at Waterbury last
Blarch. and that since Hiram Atkins of
the Argus has told the same story.
The Boston journal pertinently re-
marks, ''The public is very much inter-
ested in that letter, and if the facts
are rs Mr.. Atkins asserts, Gen. Han
cocks friends should at once get the
letter, and place it before the public
Now perhaps this is nothing but sen
sational political story, got up to carry
some little point, and if so, we can let
1t go in at one ear and out at the other.
But if Gen. Hancock really did do such
a thing, the world can never call him a
loyal man TO his country. 1t is Just
such little schemes as these that have
produced revolutions in the past. No
true patriot will ever work only consti-
tutiOnally and above board. He is not
cOnniving in the dark, to see how he
can carry his plans by secrecy. He
boldly asserts his rights, face to face,
and makes no secret of his belief or in
tentiOns. If this be true of Gen. Han
cock, he was prepared to spring a trap
upon the country, the effects of which
must have been a calamity to all par
ties, and an everlasting disgrace to us
as nation. We prefer now to believe
that Gen. Hancock was in no such dis
creditable business. Though a Deme-
crat, we had rather think of him as an
honorable soldier, and one who would
never blacken his hands or his reputa-
ton in establishing so dangerous pre-
eedent, much less to be actually found
engaged in conspiracy, the only true
name we can give to such action.
