We nish all a glorious Fourth and a pleasant time. Mr. Case, of Hecking. This gentleman, at present a mem ber of the Constitutional Convention, gained some notoriety in this Con gressional district a few years since, sj a Locofoco candidate for Congress. He has, as member of the Conven tion, been quite as nnable to please a portion of his party as he was to gratify the wishes of certain of his political friends hereabouts on the occasion referred to. The great cause, for which Mr. Case has been accused of "treason," by his own political friends, is that he will not take the Locofoco-8th-of-January-hard-money resolutions as the rule of bis action in the Convention. He wUl not vote to incorporate into the Constitution, without consulting the people by submitting the question to be decided by a popular vote, a sweeping clause prohibiting the gran ting of any bank charter on any terms whatever, and for this he is charged with being an "Arnold," by the main wing of Locofocoism. This is no quarrel of the Whigs, but a Loco foco family affair. The simple ques tion presented is, can a Locofoco be a Locofoco and stand any where else than on the hard mosey, no bank .nlatform. True this is no affair of r ours, but we thought proper to refer to It now, as it may prove an interes ting item, as explaining certain Loco- fooa manoeuvres in this district the coming fall. Hail Storm. A heavy shower of rain, on Thurs day evening last, was preceded, for owe ten or fifteen minutes, by a shower of bail-stones. They were very large, weighing from one to two ouncesrand. for a few moments fell rapidly. The much less damage, in the way of bro ken glass, &c, than otherwise must have happened. Death of Distinguished Characters in N. Y. The New York papers of the 21st bring us the news of the decease of two r -ot nntml and orominent char- VI UIO UlUBl acters of that city, and whose fame has 'travelled over the land far and wide. Mathew L. Davis, the biographer of Aaron Burr, but perhaps better known as the "Spy in Washington," and Old ITavs, formerly the High Constable of JVew York, the Vidocq of America; both died full of years an rriday week The lives of both written with a strict adherence to fact, cu!d rivaf the most wonderful romance., L. D. Compbell. This gentleman, member of Con gress from this State, and who, it will. )be recollected, was one of those who .came Lome Irom the convention, that nominated Gen. Taylor, dissatisfied ad refused to support him, has ad jressed a letter to Mr. Tilden, going f ver the whole ground of the oppo sition to the Domination by dissatis si Whigs, and the conduct of Gen. ray lor as president, and, Tike an hon Jst man, acknowledges h'a error in opposing his election, and like a good iWhig, thinks the great interests of the Union can bo best subserved by (extending to Gen. Taylor a united support. Never before has there been a President of these United Scates who has more nearly conformed his ac tons to the views expressed previous jo his election; never one whose Sews and official action more near corresponded to the honest pur- ses of the great body of the peo s'le. This is a truth that is daily Jaing better understood throughout Ahe country. A few mere politiciars, whose rule of conduct, is marked out in the secret caucus, have spared no pains to prejudice the people against him. hut the ocinions and wishes of ihese gambling politicians are but It tie heeded. All that the friends of ien.

Although some fields contain a great deal oi chess, yet it is thought, considering there was consid erable more sown last fall than ever be fore, that the yield will be larger than any previous year in Gallia" county. The berry.never was better. The corn crop which, with a cold, wet spring, succeeded by a dry June, was looking sorry enough, is rapidly coming forward since the late showers. Attempted Suicide of Gontalve Man tetquoiu. We learn from the St Louis Union, of the 20th, that on Tuesday evening, during the temporary absence of Saymond Montesquiou and Count CissaT, this unfortunate man attempted the commission of suicide by swallow ing about two ounces of laudanum, which he obtained from the trunk of his broth- er. un me return oi aaymona ana m. Cissac, they found Gonsalve laboring under great excitement, and pacing the room. He approached Raymond, and bidding hi n adieu, handed him a note, which he requested might not be opened until morning. Alarmed at the manner of his brother, Saymond broke open the paper and read, "I die this night by poison." Medical assistance was im mediately procured, and with much dif ficulty, as Gonsalve stoutly resisted, the laudanum was extracted by means of the stomach pump. The progress of the trial was, in consequence of his con tinued illness, suspended on Wednesday. i Bsutal Mcbder. We learn by the Louisville Courier, that a man By the name of Wm. Keats murdered his wife in a brutal and shocking manner, one day last week, in that city. His wiie had gone out to procure some money for sewing she had done, and on her re turn he assailed her with an xe, in a fi rious manner, cleaving her head open at one, blow, and inflicting, a terrible gash on her throat and neck at another, and severing one of her hands at a third. The woman died almost immediately. She leaves two small children. The murderer escaped. His wife was of mixed blood, being part Indian, and it is said they quarrel led because she would not return to Hardin county with him, where he for merly resided. Cocbt Ekcobd.

It is slated that the guide and sev eral visitors were under the rock at the time of its falling. Accident at Niagara Falls. NIAGARA FALLS. June 29. Judge Johnston. We cut the following just tribute of respect to the talents and capaci ty of our candidate for Governor, from the Albany Journal: Judge Johnston, the present Whig Candidate 'or uovernor ot Uhio, has a history not unlike that of Ewing and Corwin. He was kept at hard work clearing up a new farm and splitting rails until his 21st year. After that he took his place as pupil in a common school attending a ses sion of tho county Court as witness, became enamored oi the law, obtain ed a situation In a law office, entered upon his professional career with gloomy prospects, soon tcquired dis tinction by his eloquence, and was lately called to a seat upon the su preme bench for his learning. Having been nominated for Gov ernor, he has resigned his judgeship, and will electrify the people from the stump, from this time on to Oc tober. Such a man desarves suc cess. OThis week closes the publishing of the Laws. Hereafter we shall be enabled to give a greater variety of mis cellaneous matter, as our space for some time past has been limited. Judge Johnston. We have favorable accounts from all quarters, of the impression made upon- the people by the Whig candi date for Governor. He is on a tour through the eastern part of the State. From Washington. The Baltimore Patriot, contains the following in regard to the settle ment of the questions now before Congress: The reports from Washington, more or Mess authentic, are' not so favorable for an early settlement of the questions now before Congress, as they were a week ago. The hot weather has had an unfavorable ef fect upon some of the members, and the result is, that what seemed to be near a successful close last week, is now all in doubt Mr. Clay, in the course of a few remarks which he made yesterday in the Senate, ur ging the importance of that body meeting hereafter at eleven o'clock, stated that he could not, from the ap pearance of things, undertake to say when the matters would be closed. If there was any way, by which these questions could be brought be fore the people Tor decision, tuey would make quick work of it They would have no one hour rules or five minute rules, to which speeches were to be limited. They would have nothing but voting. This is what is wanting in the Senate. -Let them commence to vote. 4 (r The Scioto, for a fortnight past, has indicated heavy rains above, though every thing down this way, wm "as dry as a powder horn." Friend Robinson of the Kenton Republican, discloses the cause. He says, "the 'windows of hea ven,' and the doors too, have swung upon their vast hingef and refreshed us with copious showers, for the past ten days. The whest is doing finely, and the prospect for a heavy yield was never known to be better, though the straw will be short." Such are the ac counts, uniformly, from the great wheat belt of Ohio. Scioto Gazette. 1 The News by the Niagara. Ehglabd. The debates in Parlia-' ment present but few features of general Interest, beyond the fact that the ministers have been again beaten 1 by a majority of 32.- On Tuesday, Lord Ross moved that the House should resolve itself j into committee to consider the pres ent mode of levying the duty on home made spirits ia bond, The Chancellor of Exchequer resisted, and madalhe motion a government question. A discussion ensuec, tne House divided, and the Government were thoroughly beaten the Chan cellor protesting against the resolu tions.

In the assembly the bill for suppressing clubs and the po litical bodies has been voted for an other year. .The bill for legalising" the transportation ot political onen- ders has been passed entire as the Government presented it, excepting the ckvse which gave it a retrospec tive effect. The bill for granting pen sions to the families of those killed and wounded in the affairs of Febru ary and June was rejected by a large majority. The reactionists thus obtained a signal result The bill granting pensions to the deserving of the working classes, when infirmities overtakes them, was also passed bv a full house. The committee appointed to consid er the proposed great increase in the salary of the president, nave not re commended acquiescence inthe.de' mand. It is said, however, that the leaders of the majority intend vo ting for the bill. Notwithstanding the decision of the committee, t sharp contest is therefore expected The Mountain is indignant at the proposal, as they look upon this as being only the first of a series of movements having for their end the legalizing a perpetual presidency in the person of Louis Napolean, who has affected to take great offence at the hesitation evinced by the com mittee. 1 In a recent tour through the Prov inces, the President was everywhere well received. His speeches were somewhat remarkable for their ap peals for popularity among the work ing classes. It appears that in framing the new Electoral Law, the President made a great blunder. He never intended, it is said, that the proposed changes should extend to his election as well as representatives, but it is so, and it is only now he perceives his mis take. Another project of law for fettering the press by a stamp dutv at present is engaging the attention of Government. M.Thiers has left Pans to visit Louis Phillippe in England. The ex minister arrived on Thursday, and was well received by the diplomatist and statesmen of St James, it is said that his visit has a deep politi cal change in view; he had an inter view with the president belore leav ing Paris. A union of the two houses of the Bourbons, is said to be the object of M. Theirs' visit to the ex-King at London. Girardin has been elected to the Assembly from the Lower Rhine, by a large majority. In regard to the pending difficulty with England, a well informed rar- is correspondent says: "It is expec ted every thing will be arranged be fore Monday- next, in order that Lord Palmerston mar be able to re ply victoriously, by facts, to the threatened motion of Lord Stanley." The Globe's correspondent writes that Lord Normandy's efforts to bring the Minister of Foreign Affairs to some positive decision, had failed, although matters were and are still regarded as virtually arranged. -General Lahitte's party appears to be waiting for favorable advices from Russia. It is stated, on French authority, that the Russian government has ad dressed a political note to the En glish Cabinet, repudiating th8 notion that British subjects living in Tus cany or Naples .during the late re volt, have any just claim for indem nity for the losses sustained during those disturbances. The Russian Minister observes that the St Petersburg Cabinet com pletely identifies itself with the prin ciples which have served as the ba sis of the conduct of the Cabinet of Vienna.

Monday 24th. This morning the committee took up the report of the committee on Jurisprudence. It is short only two sections. It provides that the Legislature shall elect three commis bioners, whose duty it shall be to codify the laws, &c, after the man ner of doing the thing in New York; and that, so far as practicable, they should abolish all distinction between law and equity practice. The com missioners to report to the Legisla ture from time to time, &c. An amendment was proposed by Mr. Taylor, that these commissioners should be elected by the people. This failed. It was modified so that the Legislature should provide for their election. A discussion arose on the merits of the recommend of the committee, and was discussed till recess. Judge Peter Hitchcock urged, that as this was an experiment of a vital charac ter, it was better to wait till New York had tried the plan, and see how it worked. That it was within the power of the Legislature at any time the people might require, to do this work, and that it should not be im posed in express terms in the consti tution. Judge Holt, who is chairman of the Jurisprudence committee, defended the report, and enforced the practi cability and necessity of taw reform. He dwelt at length on the nonsense and humbuggery. ol tho John Doe and Richard Roe process' in eject ment. The question was further dis cussed, by Judge fjollings and oigna Taylor in defence of the report, and by Judge Peter Hitchcock, Nash, and Leadbelter against it. Judge Vance spoke forcibly in oppo sition to the scheme of the committee. Mr. Case of Licking replied, and de fended the report Judge Vance answered, etilorcinghis views, v. Mr. Mitchell, of Knox, made furious onslaught'upon the commit tee and the plan. He defended the common law forms, and declared them much more simple and perspi cuous than the civil law, or the re formed or New York. June 25. This morning the discussion was renewed, "and remarks were made by Messrs. Collings, Ranney and Case in defence of the report, and by nr. Mitchell in opposition. Ir. Arch bold had concurred in the report. but thought it idle to expect that a new system of jurisprudence could be adopted at once.-- It will lake years to bring any new system into operation. Mr. Tavlor spoke at length in opposition to the common law., t He was of the opinion that. we had got to be old enough and wise enough to make a system of our own. He wanted our glorious Buckeye State to be independent of British forms. Judge Vance enforced his views He had not opposed legal reform. But he was opposed to the idea of abolishing the distinction between law and chancery. Mr. Leadbetter .was still of the opinion that the proposed reform was impracticable.- Colonel Hawkins supported the report, It was a reform that was required by "the people of the State. Mr. Manon thought the. commis sioners should report a system of re forms, and should hot be left to de termine whether iey thought the thing practicable, or not" Gen. Mason said that we are all in favor of legal reform. Thi diffe rence is, that we differ about the length we go, and the way of getting at it He defended the common law at length, and with much ability. He commented with severity, and yet with pleasantness, upon the pro pensity to run after new measures, because t'.isy are new. W e are dis posed ta copy from New York. Well, he was a native of New York, and w rather proqd of that State. Rut hAA not forget that Jeremiah Wilkinson flourished there; ."uormou- ism nourished mere; awhmi rnn ma4 flr.nrih there. Hfl did not follow these, or any of them, end he did not sympathize with this feeling of running there alter legal reform. The amendment of Mr. Taylor, making it imperative oh the commis sion to report a system' of reform, was lost, and the. report was adop ted, substantially as reported. j June 26. This A. M-the committee for fix ing the compensation of the Repor ter and his corps reported, by allow, ing the Reporter eight dollars per day, and the assistants the amonnt that Mr. Smith had contracted to pay them; being two dollars per column. In committee, the report of the committee on the Judiciary was ta ken up, and that part of it which re quired the State to be divided into three judicial districts, each to elect one Judge of the Supreme Court, was stricken out,. and in lieu thereof, a clause inserted by which all these Judges are to be elected by all the people in common. Mr. Sawyer moved to strike oui all such, La tin terms as habeas corpus, procedendo, mandamus, quo warranto, Ace, from the report, and thereupon a" very amusing and learned d scus- sion arose. In rendering the terms io to good Saxon English, Mr. Mc- Cormic bored sawyer rather deep. For instance, he proposed that in stead of sa'ving the writ of manda mus, we should say, the writ of "do it. dn vouP &c The amendment of Mr. Sawver failed. After some discussion upon the district and coun ty court system, tfie Convention ad journed. June 27. The county court system is now tho subiect of debate. The oppo nents of the report object that the county court is stripped ot its impor tance, and the important business is taken away to two or three points in each circuit The opponents of the report say that the plan will take business away from the several coun ties and take it to distant places for final adjudication, that will be incon venient and expensive to lawyers and clients. It is contended that there should bo a supreme court held in each county, once or twice a year, where appealed cases are to be dis posed of, in the county where they originate. To our mind there is force in the objection. We have not examined the proposed system in detail, and have formed no opinion about the subiect. The report is undergoing a thorough sifting, and its friends are able, and distinguished. Judge Ken- non, the chairman, entered into its defence this morning. Judge Swan, Mr. Stanbery, Mr. Nash, &c, have advocated the system ol the com mittee. Mr. Clark and Mr. Ranney have opposed it Mr. Ranney, as a member of the committee, has sub mitted a minority report, embracing a whole svstem. and this forenoon he entered into a minute and very able examination of the objections to the report, and advocacy of his plan. We have not heard him speak more to the point or with more force of ar gument After he concluded his re marks the Convention took a recess, June 28. The discussion on the district and county court feature of the judiciary report was continued. Some voting in the o-ommittee indicated that there would be some change in this part ot the report June 29. The discussion was continued without anv definite action The discussion, yesterday and to day, has assumed rather two much of a personal character. The truth is begining to be manifest, that the ultra radicalism of Robertson and his compeers in red republicanism. finds no sympathy and support in tne reflecting and discreet men of that party. It is a very ditlerent atlair. to get a resolution through an 8th of January Convention of the most ul tra stamp, and to get the same thing through the Constitutional ionven tion, where men act under the solem nitvdf an oath, and the heavy re- -lm:. .u j. t K;r L'unsiuiiiiy nicy uro uuu v ...v.. constituents, to posterity, ana io their own reputations. 1 his is Deing undersood. Some men are jusi uc ginning to open their eyes to this great truth. The lesson is iraught with practical wisdom, and may work important results. j Meanwhile, eight weeks have passed away, and, though much has been said, and something has been done. We begin to doubt whether the people will have a chance to vote for or against a new constitution this year. We take the above account of the proceedings from the State Journal. (ErWK. Philips.

Incidents of the Burning of the Griffith. We .collect the following fW,m the Sandusky Mirror of the Among the saved was a Gar ttan chili, a child of some of the emigrants, only about three years and our mtormant supposes the skiff picked him up od some float. The mlant has no father, mother, brother,' Vister, friend' or acqaain tance, or any person that knows who he is or from whence he came, amon? tha saved. D. M. Reed, of Bellefontain, took off his coat and boots, dropped himself from the bow of the Unffith just as she struck the sand bar, and wam to the shore, near half a mile, hfnr havinff swam ten feet in h. i;r. and not knowing that he winabla of swimming one rod Ho thought to himself that if others n,AA i;m. there was no reason why he could not. He made the ef fort and succeeded beyond his expec tations.. This incident shows what nnnlness and decision will do tor man t such a time. Mr. Reed lost $112 from his vest pocket, and had the good fortune to have it picked in flnntincr near the shore. C. F. Hollr, of Savanna, Mis souri, id swimming ashore, lost a belt containing all his money, 2, 300, twice, and recovered it again. T-fwirnr it the third time, he was so much exhausted that he concluded in let it od. and content himself with saving his life. As good luck would have it, a man immediately behind h!m, picked it up and brought h safely to the shore. He offered the man $300 which was declined; $100, however, was accepted the finder having been left by the acci dent entirely destitute. A man bv the name or bamu Cooper, who, from his appearance, we should call a Scotchman, just from SCOtia, had in his care a young woman named Mary Murray, and e3rl about 12 years old. YYhen he awoke and got dressed, after the -alarm, the girl was missing, and by diligent search he was unable to find her. After the boat struck, and all hope of remaining on board was over, he took off his thick coat ana put on a linen one, threw Miss Murray overboard, and jumped in after her, and swam with her to a float suffi cient lo suDDort her. at a distance irom the burning boat far enough to be out of danger from the fire, and than ctarteA fnr ahnrfl himself, con fident the young lady would be safe till a small boat could come out Reflecting that he had lost his hat when he jumped overboard, and that he was liable to the headache r i j a i u ii no remamea la uio bum nuuuui n, he deliberately swam back to the burning boat, found his hat, (a white round crowned wool one,) and then swam ashore. Very soon after he reached the shore, Mr. Stebbins ar rived with his first skiff load contain ing Miss Murray. Seven Americans Murdered by Indians. San Francisco, May 15A. A party of men attached to the Pa cific Smith Mining Association, were taken prisone by a band of Apache Indians, somewhere in the vicinity of Coreaties, a small Mexican town many miles from this. The patty numbered about thirty, and was surrounded by about four hundred warriors, who stripped them of every thing. Seven of the party were put lo death, first being stripped naked, in- suited, and mutuaiea in me mosi horrible manner. Those killed were Mr. VV. H. Benjamin, of Prince ton, N.

NO MEDICINE has ever obtained a higher or more deserved reputa tion than Hobensacx's WoitJf Sraop; it is daily effecting some of the most astonishing and wonderful cures that bave ever been recorded in the annals of Medicine. We would that the public should know that a remedy is at hand that can be relied upon in the most extreme ca ses where worms are the primary cause of their suffering. And those that are pining away a miserable existence, un der the supposition that they are dys peptic, when Worms are actually prey ing upon the very vitals of their life, should use Hobensack Worm Syrup ere it is too late. Evidence certifying to the wonderfu' efficacy of Hobensack's Worm Syrup in expelling worms, and a Mother's grief changed to joy by its vset This is to certify, that two or three weeks piat, two of my children were at tacked with worms. I used every reme dy I knew, but without effect, they yet growing worse, ontil the disease assumed an alarmingly fatal character, that 1 and all who saw tbem, fell assured that death must soon close the scene, if relief was not soon obtained. One of them presen ted a fearful picture of suffering; she was literally alive with worms, her counte nance had a puna. oeatn-iiKe nue, ner breath extremely offensive, her frame wnre down to a mere skeleton, and all the symptoms attendant upon worms nf a highly aggravated slate. To such a fear ful extent did the disease arrive, that she passed worms from her nose, followed by copious bleeding. At ibis time I obtained a bottle of your Worm Syrup, and gave it with but little hope, but wonderful to ay, alter a tew doses, a great cnangs was perceptible, and in a few days to my great joy and wonder, the two children paaeed a large wash basin full of worms. Since that time tliey rapidly recovered, and are now perfectly cured. SUSN THOMPSON, Oxford St., bet. Front and Second, Phils.

I hereby certify that the foregoing are correct copies irom a cerunea copy of the original roll, on file in the Secretary of Male s umce. J. W. PARKER, Auditor. Homestead Exemption. The doctrine of Homestead Ex emption has been thoroughly can vassed in this community is well understood, and as a natural conse quence, has but few friends. We have opposed it from the start, be cause we believe that fraud, inequali ty and injustice are of its very es sence. Why not go a step farther in the work of robbery and dema- gogueism, after it was commenced, by fixing a maximum, and giving to every man who does not come up to it, as much as will make him equal with his fellows. There would be just about as much justice in rob bing somebody that has too much land and giving it to the landless, as there is in allowing a man to defraud his neighbor out of a sum of money justly owing him. The "vote your- self-a-larm'' doctrine no worse than l .r it j T? l ii a i ui iiuuicaic.iu ajaciiiuuh, which is only a new reading of the text "give to him that hath abun dance, and from him that hath noth ing take away even that which he hath." The whole thing is unwise, absurd and unjust, and will prove a serious injury to the very class it was intended to benefit. Holmes Co. Whig. From the Zanesville Courier. The Other Side. Editors Courier: Gentlemen, I have read with some interest the articles of your correspondents on the subject of the Homestead Ex emption. I was sorry they were so long, not because they were tedious, but because their length was evi dence of the fact that they had not well digested the subject. Here I believe is the whole argu ment against the law. "A man who has no property can have no credit the law reduces men worth $500 to a level with men of no means at all, that is, it deprives them of credit; therefore rich men are benefitted at the expense of those in moderate circumstances. Such argument is founded on a false view of credit. Men who use it go upon the supposition that cred it costs nothing that there is trvst without what an old friend of ours calls interest. Suppose there were no borrowers would capital be ben efitted. If I have $5,000 to lend is it no advantage to me to have the borrowers increased instead of di minished, or if I have $50,000 in goods to sell is it to my interest that the number of buyers should be re duced? Nonsense, nay worse than nonsense. "Rich men have all the credit." Fiddlesticks! What does a rich man want with credit? Credit sup plies the place of riches; it is a sub stitute, it is attached to demand and not to supply. Whenever you im- nair it therelore vmi dprrpfiso He. therelore and consequently reduce the ralue of tne supply, But I deny that the law will in jure credit on the contrary it wil purify it it will base all small rred- it transactions upon integrity and enterprise and not upon capital. It will therefore enhance the value of truth and industry, for they alone will be trusted. An honest, indus trious man will always command as much capital as he is capable ol using to advantage. The unfortu nate, under this glorious exemption law, can never be tyranized over by an ble lock. EX EMPTIONE. Webster gives tha following defini tion: "Phil-o-pe-na."

Home and Friends. BY CHARLES SWAIN. Oh, there's a power to make each hour as sweet as Heaven designed it, Nor need we roam to bring it home, Thou eh few there be who find itr. We seek too high for things close by, And love what nature found us; For life hath here no charms so dear As home and Friends around us! We oft destroy the present joy For future hopes and praise them; While flowers so sweet bloom at our feet, If we'd but stoop to raise them! For things afar still sweeter are, When youth's bright spell hath bound us: But soon we're taught that earth was naught Like home and friends around us! The friends that speed in time of need When Hope's last reed is shaken; To show us still, that come what will, We are not quite forsaken; Though all were night, if but the light From Friendship's altar crowned us, 'T would prove the bliss of oarth was this Our Homes and Friends around us! Yankee Simile.

The great objection urged by the locolocos against the tariff of 1S42 ws that it yielded too much revenue.

Memphis, Tenn March, 1850, The Faculties, for intellectual abilities,, moral worth and professional acquirements, will compare favorably with the most distin guished in our country. Tbe medical faculty constitutes an anomaly in this or any other countryall of them are able lecturers and the best of teachers. Those wbo will contemplate our geographi- eal position, and the extent of our population. can have no doubt as to tha eligibility ot our situation for an enterprise of the kind. A to health, including all seasons of the year, w deny that any other city has more. A common error exists in the minds of many students relative to the place of studying med icine; those who intend practicing among tne diseases of the West and South should cer tainly educate themselves at school whose Faculty are practically acquainted with those diseases. That the publie may be satisfied of tbe per manency of this school, we feel it our duty to state, that the Trustees and Faculty form a unit in action; which augurs well for its future success; and that the peculiar internal organi zation which connects them, cannot be Inter rupted.
