Dr. Porter Heads it and is Supported

The Democratic Convention held yester-
day to nominate candidates tor the Leglsla-
ture, though characterized by something OF
the old Democratic enthusiasm, was on the
whole thorough and signal success. The
results attained were especially benenclai 10
the party. While there were considerable
disputes on parliamentary poinis, there 10
no denying the fact that the ticket put forth
is an unobjectionsble one. Headed by 1T

Democrat, Mr.. Josiah Patterson, and aided
bv such men az J. S. Galloway, M j. Kelly,
E. J. Wendell, Messrs. Price and Norris, the
ticket seems almost an impregnable one.
The alliance with the colored men Will also
greatly strengthen the ticket, and the AP-
PEAL expects to see 1t successful by nand-
some majority.
The Convention was called TO order at II
o'clock by Mr.. L. d. Estes, the chairman OF
the Democratic Executive Committee, who
said.
GENTLEMEN OF THE CoNvENTIoN-In call

essary to say that we are here to-day 10 select
candidates Tor the next Legislature, and con-
sidering the important questions that are TO
be settled, it behooves US to get the very beat
men we can. The business OF the Conven-
ton is now in order.
Mr.. Hugh D. Greer was chosen temporary
chairman. He said that Mr.. Estes had an
nounced the objects Of the Convention, and
as the delegates had come 10 work and not
to talk, the business of the day was IN order.

An Odd Theft.

ado you see that large old house over
there?' said he, pointing with his fin
ger to a farmhouse on the other side Of
the valley, Noddng my assent, he con-
tinued IAN old fellow named, once
lived there. He died few years ago,
but he is not forgotten, He had love
of appropriating other peoples property
to his own use, and once, when coming
down the steep, long hill on the other
side of the river, with oxen and cart, he
saw a large wheel tire lying in theroad
just ahead of him, After looking around
to see that he was not observed, he put
the tire upon his load and covered it
from sight. On arriving home under
cover of the darkness, he hid the treas
ire he had found securely beneath his
barn floor and felt happy at his new
acquisition But 10! when morning
dawned, and he went to the cart to re-
licve it OF lis load, he found that the Off
wheel was minus its tire. and the I'M
happy fact pressed itself upon him that
he had stolen his own property"

The Man Who Wanted q Shirt.

A shrewd countryman was in New
York the other day, gawky, uncouth,
and innocent enough in appearance, but
in reality with his eye-teeth cut. Pass
ing up Chatham street he was con-
tinually encountered with opportunities
to buy. From almost every store some
one rushed out, in accordance with the
annoying custom of that street, to seize
upon and try to force him to purchase
At last one dirty-looking fellow caught
him by the arm, and clamorously urged
him to become customer.
Have you got any shirtsP' inquired
the countyman with very innocent
look.
"A splendid assortment, sir. Step in,
sir. Every price, sir, and every style.
The cheapest in the street"
Are they clean?'
80 be sure, sir Step in, sir"
"Then,' resumed the countryman,"
with perfect gravity, put on one, for
you need it!
The rage of the shop keeper may be
imagined as the counlryman, turning
upon his heel, quietly pursued his way.
