SUDDEN DEATH i'm TRENTON.

TRENTON, March 16.-Yesterday
evening Major r. P. Bryan while
walking from his Office to his home
suddenly fell on the sidewalk, and
was dead before assistance could
reach him. In the opinion of the
attending physician he died ofheart
disease. Major Bryan was in his
7Sd year, and has been an honored
citizen Of our town for over fifty
years, and had always maintained
the character of a pious, Christian
gentleman, an honorable, high-toned
citizen and true friend and neigh
bor. For several years he had been
connected with the county treas
urery or as assistant treasurer.
Maj. Bryan was the father OF
Mrs. Broaddus of our town. MIR.
and Mrs. Broaddus received the
sad intelligence by telegraph, and
left on Sunday morning for Tren-
ton, to be present at the final trib-
ute to the deceased. Mr.. Broaddus
was compelled, the notice being SO
sudden, to leave his pulpit vacant
on Sunday. All our people sym
pathize greatly with our friends in
their bereavement. .. .... e.. .

bearing taken that no flaws exist.
Screw the different joints tightly
together, and then solder them very
carefully. To the lower extremity
attach a metal plate yard square
"copper" is best,) and sink this in
the ground to permanent moisture,
fill in with charcoal, and cover the
excavation. It is of so great i'm
portance to have the plate in per-
manently wet earth that it would
be far safer to have no rod, than to
have the plate in dry earth. In
that case, the electricity would
adopt the building as a conductor
with disastrous consequences. II

tach the rod to it. The chimney
is better conductor than the tim.
bers of the building, and the gasses
which ascend it, are very good con-
ductors. Use metal fastenings, and
under no circumstances insalate the
rod from the building. Those who
now have glass rings to separate
ohe rod from the building to which
the rod is attached, would act very
wisely to break the glass insulators,
and clasp the rod with the metal
fasteninos that surround the
glass.

Therefore, extend the rod at least

higher should the rod extend. The

a cone in shape whose altitude
equals the radius of its base. A
foot below this cone copper ring
should be screwed and soldered,
to which should be securely fasten-
ed three or four sharp highly polish
ed copper points, six inches long.
There must be no abrupt bends in
the rod. All metal work about the
building should be protected, ex-
cept gas pipes-a defective joint
might ignite the. gas. There should
be regular inspections of the condi-
tion Of the protective system OF
rods, both above and below ground.
The above directions are drawn
from the very highest authorities,

Judge Bond is said to have init
mated to the encouragement that
it would be wise and expedient to
permit the political cases in South
Carolina to rest for a period, and
give the civil cases some chance
for a hearing. 1t is safe to pre-
sumo that Mr.. Brewster will acqui-
esee in this opinion of Judge Bond !;
not that he is willing to call off his
hounds that have been marrying the
Democrats Of our State, but be-
cause he has been unable to run
down his game. Judge Bond is
right ; but it will be remembered
that he has been very wrong. He
did not order change of program
until he found that South Carolina
Democrats could not be convicted
even with packed juries and hired
witnesses.

A. W. Tourgee, The editor Of the
Continent, has conducted canvass
in every State of the North, east OF
Colorado, to ascertain what Repub-
lican could get the most votes, and
lose the fewest, as presidential
nominee. His inquiries were pro-
pounded to more than eleven hun
dred men known by him to be ear
nest, representative Republicans
After giving the result Of his can
vass, at some length, he says, 1--WE
believe it to be entirely beyond
question that Mr.. Lincoln will be
one of the nominees of the Repub-
lican party, and the probabilities are
so great as almost to render it a
certainty that he will be the head
of the ticket If we must have q
Republican president, Mr.. Lincoln
will suit US as well as anybody.

Poverty destroys pride. 1t is
difficult for an empty bag to stand
upright.
All a mistake. If man feels
and knows himself to be an honest
man, he is the peer of any man on
earth, The want of wealth and fine
clothing should never lower the
pride of any person. God looks at
the heart not the apparel. Poverty
may and does subject one to
many privations. Yet fortified with
the pure feelings af an honest heart
he takes his stand and feels himself
the equal of any one. Better to
be the empty bag" than the
empty skull and the black and cor
rupt heart. The proverb is wrong
and shows degraded nature when
it is acted upon.

I DECLINE.

Ger, the English philosopher, hav-
ing been asked to stand as a can
dldate for member Of Parliament,
declined to abandon his work for q
political career, and said that he
could not agree to be merely a del
egate voting as desired by his con-
stituents, but would always act
upon his own judgment, so that
there would be continual antago-
nism between him self and his con-
stituents.
There is something refreshing
about these words Of the distin-
gyishcd Englishman, and they car
ry lesson by which our OWE pol
iticians might profit The people
demand that they be recognized as
supreme, in the halls of legislation
as well as at the ballot box, and
the representative who dares to fly
in the teeth of public sentiment on
any question demanding legislation,
must sooner or later feel the lash
of public indignation. This is es-
pecially true Of State politics; and
being true it should lead every
man who is asked to. stand as a
candidate for Legislative honors to
decide two questions.
The first question is, viii I agree
to vote as my constituents wish me
to vote, on questions affecting the
public welfare? and the second,
Will I..have the nerve to follow my
own judgment, regardless Of the
desires of my constituents? At
some time in the political career of
every man who is endowed with
ability and sagacity, these ques-
tions must arise. The people have
become exacting, and representa-,
tive may seal his own political
death warrant by casting a single
vote. We feel no hesitancy, how
ever, in saying that a representa-
tive should never refuse to vote on
important measures because he is
afraid of offending his constituents.
We go farther and say that he
should not greatly trouble himself
to find out the opinion of his con-
stituents, when he has the APPROX
al Of his.own judgment.
We like the man who can be a
public servant, without slavishly
following the desires Of anybody !;
the man who has the manhood and
the nerve to follow his own judg-
ment when occasion offers the
man who is not afraid to cast avote
without feeling the pulse of the
people ; the man who can sneeze
without first enquiring whether his
constituents have taken snuff. Mr..
Spencer is unwilling to be an auto
maton. He is not willing to lay aside
his own personality and individual,
ity to become a pupret in play of
Punch and Judy in which he must
speak, and vote and act as his con-
stituents work the wires. He there
fore declines because ne is averse
to a continual antagonism between
himself an his constituents.
We repeat that the example is a
good one. The man who has pol
itical career in view should decide
at once whether there are sharply
drawn issues on which he does not
agree with his constituents. If so,
he can remain in political life
only by following the desires Of his
constituents, and overriding his
own judgment. The question is
whether he is willing to follow this
course.

d. l.. Crouch, of Texas, was here
the latter part of last week fixing up
his brothers estate, who died at
Seven Rivers last winter. Our sub
scribers will remember of reading of
cold -blooded murder, few months
ago, of Mr.. and Mrs. Crouch, of
Michigan, who were very old and
had vast amount of money in the
house. The murder created great
excitement in the east and the
papers were full of the horrible af-
fair. ID. l.. Crouch is a son of the
parties murdered in Michigan and
has spent thousands of dollars for
detective service in trying to ferret
out the murderers of his parents. So
far he has met with but little success.
