We felt confident before the meet-
ins of the late Judicial Convention
that the Conservative candidate for
Judge in the Third District could be
erable, majority. With such a can
didate, as Col. McKoy and faithful
work in every county we may

to one thousand. The annexed vote
in the election for Attorney General
in 1870, and that for Governor in
1872 are the grounds of our confi
dence. . In the counties composing
this Judicial District the majority of
Wm. M. Shipp for Attorney General,
iu 1870, was 1,003; in 1872, at the
Gubernatorial election, MerrimonV
majority was 547.
So we see that if the Conservatives
n D mo1T ,',a v.or o foir AA in
.
1870 our majority will be one thous
and. In 1872 the majority Avas small
er because the success of Grant was
greatly dependent on how this State
voted, and every means, even the
most unscrupulous, were resorted to
to ensure Caldwell's election. There
is no such incentive for the Radicals
this year; hence McKoy's majority
-
ought to approximate, if it does not
reach Shipp's majority of 1870.
These figures and all the favorable
signs in the political firmament should

encourage our friends to make a bet-

man who professes Conservatism as his I
political creed can vote for a Radical

for Col. Almand A. McKoy, and he

HON. W. W. EATON.
Last Wednesday night the Demo-

tne democrats nave a majority in the
Legislature, and the nomination in
the caucus was made unanimous with
enthusiasm on the first ballot. Be
fore the election of Mr. Eaton it was
believed .that Barnum, member of
Congress and one of the wealthiest
men in-the State, would exhibit such
strength as to leave the choice of Sena
tor in doubt. The friends of the pres
ent able and liberal-minded Governor,
Charles R. Ingersall, were hopeful
that in the event of an evenlv-bal-
,a , - ,
nard their man would have a chance.
But Mr. Eaton was an old and in
fluential leader with qualities that
have always given him immense
power in the councils of his party,

Deak Sir: I am sorry I have been
so long in replying to your letter, and
now I dp not feel that I can say much
that will be of use to you. The open

general approval, and after the ex
perience of some years it would be
now impossible to go back to the old
system. The present plan is one
which is felt to be more just to all
ciasses and it i8 calculated to supply
more capable men for the various de-
partmentsof the public service. You
