THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION
descimently to the nomination by the,.Bar alud tha
PfsoPfe fife Deinovratie dodicial Convention of this county
assembled. This convention did *lli. tis unprecedented
in the history.of that rty--i' 111(14L1 ten uvaainelfun. It
passed resolutions referring to the nomination already
made by the liar and the People, and simply ratified feud
adopted that prior nomination. This woo the whole ac
tion of the Convention on the subject. it pawed no poli
tical resolutions alai n ''pllfbrue." What it did woe
only an affirmance of what had la-en done before by the
legal profession find the community at large. This will
appear. from the preamble and resoliftion unanimously
adopted by the Convention :las follOws).
Whereas, The dearest rights of the people are , ;the best
protected by a pure and upright and learned iiidiciary;
a nd whereas, the lenity of the bench can be only pro
tected by keeping the same independent of all partisan
influence; and whcrea9, the Bar of Philadelphia, accts.
towed to doily intercourse with judges,and having abund
ant opportunities of thoroughly understanding their fit
ness, did, at a meeting romposed of those of all parties,
unanimously'nominate the lion. James R. Ludlow for
reelection to the place they declared he so long and faith
fully administered; and wherav, the people of this city,
without distinction of party, did, at a public meeting held
in the County Court House, also nominate Judge Ludlow
f it , downing the entire confidence of the community;
therefore,
Respired, - That this Convention cordially approve the
nomination so made, anti earnestly unite with the people
of the city in their desire to preeerve to - the judiciary so
experienced, learned and honest a judge as ;James k.
TILE RESMI
of these Proceedings is, that Judge Ludlow, as a eandt
date, stands before the people in a po4-ition ent trait/ huh , .
Pendent, Ito( convected wiih any partisan proceedings,
resolutions or platforms, and not bound by any political
pledge. An tech g4cduc has been asked and lwne has been
g leen. The action of each one of the three
representative bodice by whom he kas been nomb
noted, has been (iterattv and entirely irresreetive of

Tuesday next would be fatal to the peace of the country.
z IN THIS
Citizens our duty is plain. It is to stand by our oarty,by
our Congress, by our Generals, by our, leaders, and by our
candidates. If we would have a restored Union, con
tinuous peace, concord and prosperity throughout the en.
tire land—it we would secure the payment Of the national
debt, principal and interest, and thereby maintain Amcri.
can honor Inviolate—if we would- save our country from
the horrors of civil war, anarchy, and possibly from des
petiem itself, we must act in concert, and defeat at the
polls every candidate for ohhico who may, in the remotest
degree, act or sympathize with,Andrew Johnson and his
allies. Remember that all nistory shows that the days
next succeeding civil wars have been the days of greatest
danger to the victors.

The Grand Trial.
At the celebrated trial of Sewing Machines in
1865, known as "THE GRAND TRIAL oF ISL INN,
PAI:K." where the comparative merits or the two
leading . sewing Machine stitches—the "twisted
loop-stitch" and the "lock-stitch"—were the main
question at issue, the result was decidedly in
favor of the Willcox & Gibbs Machine. This
trial, it will be remembered, was no ordinary
guess-work affair, but a systematic and
thoroughly practical test, and the only
trial of Sewing Machines ever yet held, or
attempted, that was so. The judges were all
pra , ll , al sernny machine experts;
and they were required to decide upon the rela-
UV!: merits of the eMnpeting machines, not as ig
norance. prejudice:. or -favoritism might happen
to dictate. •but "tweording to ~ ,i denc,-": and no
evidence Was to be admitted excepting `/itrtg";
anti nothing was to be accepted as fact until
proved to be such by "praeticol TE, , ,TS"
of work done there.-by the respective machines.
In the progress of 'the trial every point' of su
perior merit, claimed for either machine. was
thus tried and decided: and all but two of the
eb;:-ty-3e5 , 71 points claimed were decided in favor
of the Willcox & Gibbs machine. A few of these
points are given below, and the whole will be
found in the published "Report" of said trial,
which can be had on application.
The Willcox & Gibbs machine was decided to

of ; I vef..sei 111. the Bayof San_ r .ranciseo,when the
- Ship was drifted upon_a reef. Out of eleven hun

.but that the
gallant ship would go to pieces: One lady
spiatuallSt, who had - lost a friend on board by
death, came to the Captain in a most beseeching
manner, her eyes filled with tears; and said the
ship could be saved—that she had communication
from the spirit-world that there was a Jonah on
board, and it was necessary to throw him over
board to save the vessel. .The captain asked
who the person could be. She replied, "You,
Captain Brownlow." The Captain said, "My
good woman, there must be some mistake about
this matter. The spirits have got the wrong
name, or the wires are down."
—Miss Braddon has had "a shock." and has
written thus about it to the Pall Mall l;a:ctle:
"Sir, with the deepest regret I have perused your
severe criticism of 'Circe' in this evening's im
pression. The discovery of its theft from M. Oc
tave Feuillet has fallen 'like it thunderbolt on my
senses. Let me at once assure your readers,
,those who are subscribers to Rcliporia, that I was
unconscious of Mr. Babington White's deception,
he having undertaken to contribute an original
novel. As the worker of precious metals will
never refuse.for his honor'S sake to take back the
base stuff he may have sold, unconsciously for
gold, so I should wish at once to publish my
willingness to return the amounts paid by my
subscribers for those numbers of _Belgravia in
which 'Circe' has usurped a, place. I am, sir,
yours faithfully, M. E. Braddon, Richmond, Sept.
16,1867." The unlucky plagiarist must feel
rather small just now.

What will Follow the Elections.
The following spermlatione are quoted from the Wash
ington correspondence of the incinnati Cif ethr:
At pre,ent those who ore urging Mr. Johnson to ex
treme measures are assuring him that the people are with
hint and will manifest it at th,coming contest. From toll
parts of Ohio letters are pouring in upon hint, asserting
that the power of the Republican= is broken, that the re
action in his favor h: iministakable, and that the misses
its looking to him for vigorous action against the Rita
ea IP.' The purpose of such letters is evident They are
expected to pave the way to the inauguration of extreme
if, through the apathy of Republicans, these
States show large Opposition gains. the country' may look
for more marked displays of the President's hate of the
Union party - than it has yet been allowed to observe.
The situation with respect to the October elections Is
almost an exact counterpart of the position a year ago.
Then Mr. Johnson bad very. nearly matured a plan for
preventing the niggling of Congress. The result of the
elections frightened hint from his purpose. A ringing
Union victory is needed again to effect the same result.
Then few believed in his revolutionary designs. Now it.
is a matter of knowledge thnt he then cherished them.
Then the plan was to declare that a body which excluded
the representatives of ten States wes not to Constitutional
Congress, mid following that declaration, to recognize the
Northern Johnson members, with those who claimed
seats from the South, as the National Congress. This
idelltield plan is under consideration again, and - through •
it the President's opposition to Ciongll.oB may yet take
shape. The dame men who were waiting a year ago to •
obtain their seats by sneli a course on the part of the
Executive, are waiting and hoping still.. The cry of all
the Administration papers here that the oath .of the
President obliges him to defend the Constitution, has
such :in end in view. Tim danger is even greater now
than it was twelve months ago. .31r. Johnson has taken
several aggressive steps. Unless he takes others. even his
Fut portera will ridicule hint as a weak and cowardly man.
isTt easier to go forward now, to one of his temperament,
than to stop and quietly accept defeat.

The President's Line of Defence.
A New York letter to the Charleston Courier says:
It i, well known among a certain elms of men that Mr.
,Thh aon n, daring tore than a year post, hoe carefully col
lected all the speeches, and even part: , i,f speeches, made
hp ilepublican and Democratic Senators in reference to
the impeachment question. For that purpo-c. a come of
tie very best of our city StellographeN hat e been con.

rant Senators, and making transcripts of owe , poec h,,,, ,
a ppm e idly tor publication In a leadillg Neu York jour-.
oat, b' I really to PerVe as a per; erful weapen in the hands
of the - President whenever the opportune moment shall
have arrived. It is, I understand, the intention of Mr.
Johnson, hi the event of articles ,4 impeachment
being sent to the Senate, to boldly declare that
he will not be tried by Senator? who have de
clared themselves eitia;r in favor or against Ids im
peachment. Ile takes the ground that the meanest
email:din the country. even when tried upon a charge
of petty larceny - has the right to challenge his jurors.
And he claims, with a good deal of sound renooning, that
in tin albimportunt matter like this, it is simply due to
justice that his judges should not he men who have pre.
paged his ease. _ In tine. that he will mot be tried by
Judges who hold him guilty even before the trial hits
commenced. The moment matters are approachiug.this
crisi:3, the stenographers who, during the mist pair, have
been taking OnIVII the Senotorial speeehe-., directly or hi
directly alluding to impeachment, will he summoned to
Washington, :aid be celled upon to swear to the correct
ness of their reports now in the President's 130:48e0iii011.
Among the judges against whom special exceptions will
be taken by 3.1 r. Johnson are Senators Howard, Thayer,
Nye, Sumner, Wade and Chandler.
Secretary FletcheOs Speech at Nash
ville—Card frown Gov. Broavn low.
[From the Nashville PreFs and Times.)
Mr. Mercer: I find a remarkable Bpeeell reported in your
paper, said to havolieen delivered in front of the Capitol
by the Secretary of State. have perused It twice, and I
have - ionie-tetfie conclusion-:ilkt-inany of.-niyniostnon.;
siderate friends hare—that is to say, the object of the
speech was an attack upon me. I propose briefly- to notice
two or three points in this ink hid and ungenerous attack.
Speaking ej., the appointment of Northern men to office,
Mr. Fletcifer ays:
"We have put them on t f:bench and made them At
orn ey-G men le. Some of them are very shrewd in the
Puna it of office. One of them, come time since, from
about Columbia, obtained a commission of Chancellor
before there wits any vacancy, lung before he was eligi
able, and a life thee before he had any litllead for the
office."
The individual alluded to is J. J. Noah, of Collin - thin.
To the beat of my recollection and belief, .Mr. Fletcher is
the only man who ever did, in persen, urge upon me the
favorable consideration of Mr. Noah. On two different
aCeadolla in my room, in the presence of Hon. W. C.
Seater, dr. Fletcher spoke to me of the superior talents of
Mr. Noah ,al.lll especially of his familiarity with the law
books. In a AVOld, Ileplaced a higher estimate upon Mr.
Noah's ability than I (lid. The two had not then fallen
out. Alter speaking of my staff, Mr. Fletcher adds -
Vie,
-
the parson who occupies the Goverip:r , s flair iii
his absence, and presides over the Executive Department,
Pi not a citizen ot the State, and does not expect to lie
conic a citizen of the. State.''
11. H. Thomas did not force himself upon the State
Government, but came irOle Wattlellatell at arc special
invitation, and I invited him because 1 had confidence in
his talents, integrity land loyalty, and for the seine
reason retain him on my staff. As a Federal
soldier under General Einnside, he taught
its way into TellaelMee, Viet achieved by area; the right
to live here ,ind to hold attire, if eonferred upon him. I
tun nut a Party to the personal quarrel between Lim and
Mr. Fletcher, and will not be made a party. In concluding
his aneoch.'.llr. Fletcher says:
"I have been asked repeatedly today, it Gov.Brownlow
had espoused the cause of a particular candidate for
~ M ayer, and 1 am told the aforesaid Chief of titaff ao
declares.. I know nothing on this sublect." '
If Mr. Fletcher knew nothing on this subject,' he ahould
not have said anything, or at least Ito should not have
made the Impression that I had pitched into at local con
test between two Union friends. General Thomas,Colonel
Innis, General Cooper, Dr. Sperling, Senator Fowler,
Major Brown, and other citizens of Nashville,
can inform him , that I told them
in pereon,
that under no circumstance's could I be induced
to take any other part in that contest than to enforce
the Franchise l.uw at the State. Finally, the Hinge at mu
in this speech, and worse, were made during the late
canvass,reli and conservative enentlea, and flak !oval
people o tie State spoke out in my defence through; the
ballot-bos. To the saw people rhand over thetae attacks

their verdict. W. G. BROWNLOW ,
