Mn. EiOTon: In an editorial of the ti
I Ith inst., referring to the pglicy' td. t
vised, by me, you say, "We would be f
pleased to have the scheme somewhat
explained." I will endeavor to do
so, but the limits of a newspaper d
comn unioatiou will not, of course, t<
allow tue to do more thau briefly give ,
tho main ideas.
. The Vinginia third-party scheme
will iot work hiere. Lot us keep up t
the organiration of the .Demucratict
party in this State. We can consti. e
tute no other party, even in name, n
howinuch soever we may endeavor to
do so. We are Democrats; let us call
ouseolves sucb. This name furnishes hi
the only real line of division between
our friends and our foes ; and is the P,
name of the party whlh, sooner or b<
later, will overthrow the radical par. ,.
ty in the United States. While we e
look forward to this redemption, we I
ought to usc what power we havo as ca
effeetively as; possible ; and while we be
need not play the sycophant, yet whilo I
our hand is in the tigers mouth, we t
ought to irritate the animal as little A
as possible. oi
We must bear in mind that in the so
i State, as a whole, in three Congres- gr
-aloual Distriots, and in twenty Coun
ties, we are, for some time to come, re
in a hopeless minority. It is bope- sa
less, because dependcnt.upon the color or
of the voters. That it is so depen. bl
dent, (except in a few instances where
the high intelligence or integrity of
the colored.pitizeu enables him to do.
olare himself a political freeman,
onianeipated-froni the slavery of the
leagues,) an5 seriously reflecting I
mind must admit. No courting-of
the colored vote has the slightest di
effect.' DNo exposure of .villainy on d
the part of the radical offioials has r
the slightest effect. -The colored vetot
is deaf to anything . uttered by an at
honest white Denoorat. , Hampton, I
'J'homas, and others tuay talk them

Land, second, that we haeamn a.
o many aspirants for office, and too
any that are ambitious of the honor
even a nomination to a prominent
lice. This difficulty way, however,
overcome by a little plain talk on
o part of our leading mon.
The Convention that meets on the
5th instant, can initiato this polioy,
( making no nowication for the offi.
s of Governor and Lieutenant
overuor, and declaring that they will
ake no nomination during the canvu.ss.
it inerely makes no nomination
id adjourns without such doolara
an, the possibility of its subsequcnt/y
aking a nomination, will most ei
utually prevent any split iu the Re
iblican iranks. The Convention can
>t produce a split., but if it does not
Afiuitely declare its policy to be, not
.iiake a nomiinatiou inl any event, it
ill prevent a split.
If any Republican, of such intelli, I
nee and integrity as would justify
ir support, can carry tile votes of
i thousand of his party, we can I
sily elect him Governor. It will I
t do for us to nominate one who we 8
ppose would carry such a vote, for 1
Lr nomination would effectually kill f
in with bis party.
As a part of the line of policy
linted out, we ought to exercise for
iurance towards those of the other
Lrty. While we may denounce and
:pose rascality, we must not assume, t
uoh less declare, that to be a radi
1, is necessarily to be a rascal. I t
ieve there are honest mon in the
3publican ranks; and the sooner
is is generally admitted, the better. t
little conciliation, with less violence
denunciation, would have saved t
ie Counties the evils they now t
oan under.
Let us remain Democrats, let us 1
main true Caolininus but at the
me time, let us rememlber that hon.
and policy can consistently be
ended.
Yours respectfully,

Burning of the Body of the King of

A French Naval officer who was

be late Iing of Siam, gives the fol
owing description of the strange
ieremony : "During the 'afternoon,
iccompanied by the French 'Consul
nd the Chancellor of the 'Consulate,
I visited the Mone, or Monument
hYbich contained the iuneral pile. This
ionstruction was raised in three
inouths, the entire population contri
buting to the labor, but the pieces of
imber which support it were. nearly
t year arriving at Bangkok, and were
Jhe tallest traes in the kingdom. The
idifice was nearly three hundred feet
igh, and covered with gilding ; in
lie centre, under the dome, was a
.ised structure decorated with gold
ud precious stones, and on which the
Pody was to be placed. Early on the
ighteenth, the fiiial preparations
omIonced; the construction sup

uines, and beneath was placed a heap
f fragrant wood eight feet high.
kbout five in the evening the entire
cmp any was assenbled around, and
lie King set fire to the mass, Without

be fire from Heaven which burnt the

vhich has been piously preserved, was
hat used. The people were then al

hey had brought ; when the flanes

Trial J'stios -Their Appoin ments Un
constitu iea!.
The following decision has bee
made by his Iluor Judge Green:
THE STATa EX IEL. ILUDSON Vs. MULKA
-'iRUJinI'TION.
An application for prohoibliton wa
made in the ca-c to amtruin the sher
Iff from execuiting a judgment r,i
'dered ogainst the i e'atur for the suL
of eighty-three dollars.
The application was bawed upon thm
ground that the act of Assouibly au
thorilng the appointment of magis
trates *ith jurisdiction, such us i
given by that act, is in violation o
the constitution of this State. It wai
contended at the argument, that th
act referred to was violative of diver
provisions of the constitution ; bu
from the view which I have taken, i
will only:b necessary to advert to i
single one.
The first 'section of article 4th pro
video: "'The Judicial power of thil
State shall be vested mu a Supremt
Court; in two Circuit Courts, to wit
a Court of Comion Pleas, having ov
il jurisdiotion I and a Court of Gene
rtl 'Sessions, with oriminal jurisdie
tidh Only ; in Probate Courts; and ii
Jueices of the Peace. The Genera
Assumbly may also estabhsh suoh mu
ndcipal abd other inferior courts al
n*y be deemed necessary." Tb<
tweity-firat sa6tion of the aaite artiolt
d~olares that "a coinpetent number ol
justices of the peace should be chosor
in each county, by the qualifi'd elea
tors'there6f, in such manner as thi
General Assembly many direct thei
shall hold their offlues for a" term 01
two years, and until their successorn
are elected-and qualfied. They shall
rehid6," &e.,- "and be commissioned
by 'the Governor"
The 224 seotion of article 4th de.
finls ' the jurisdiction of justices
-"Justices of the peace,' individually
or two or more of them jointly, as the
General Assembly may direct, huv
original.-jurisdiotion in case of bas,
tardy, and 'in. il matters of cortracl
'and action ' fot the'reu6very of flu 0
forfeitures, where the amount ollimei
does not exceed one hundred dollars
and such jurisdiction aw may be pro
Vtfu 1,,law' ts nluuwr.u tIelui
where the damages claimed do noi
exceed one hundred- dollars, and
prosecutions for assault," nnd so forth
Thus by the. constitution the juris
diction 'of justicos of the peaoe is de
unej', te source rrom whence tho
shall receive their power is poluited
out, and the tenure of their offio i
declared.
If we recur to the legislative act ic
queation it will be found that th<
jurisdiction conferred upon the magis
trates is preciaely that given by the
eonstitution to justices of the peace,
except the amount named finthe act 1,
ninty-nino dollars instead of one
huodred, and that the court'establish
e by that act iv a substitute for that
provided by the contitutlon. The
firL section of the act expressly de
clares that "until the organirAtion of
the courts contemplated by sectiona
21, 22 and 23 of article 4th' of the
constitution, the Governor is hereby
authorised, empowered and required
to appoint a suitable number of fit
and discreet persons in each county to
aot as magistrates 'of s'oh county.'"
Iore then w e have officers unknown
to the constitution, not elected by. the~
people, withiout a fixed term ofL office,
appointed and rem~oved at the will of
the exeoutive, administering that
juris4iotion cooferred by the constitu.
tion upon justices of ihe peace, who
ame elegted by the peoples and have a
tixed term of office independent of
h. Executive.

The Oalifornis Companies Discourage any
Further thinese Immigration.
The San Franclsco Bulletin of the
25t h uit. says :
The Chinese Six Compames, of this
city, is a cowbmzation which possesaes
coisideraole atithority here and in
a China. Shortly after the arrival of the
last steamer from that couantry, the
leading men of the association bere,
a seeing about 1,200 of their cuuntrymen
landed, called a neeting at, which it
a circular was prepared setting forth the
- reasons why Chinamsen aid Clinawonent
should cease emigrating to this country.
a Copies of this circular will be posted is
f all the principal towns and cities of the
i empire, for the information of all claso
0 es.
S is along document but the sub.
t stance of it is that California and the
t adjoining States are not what tiev
t fornerly were so far a.s the facilities for
m.,ing money are concerned ; that, very
few Chiuamen can rbtain more than a
bare subsistence', and that only the mer.
Schanits are able to accumulate riches.
rhe opition prevails generally in China
that the placer mines of this State afford
a good field for tho labors of the imi
grant. The circular states that these
mines do not pay any longer, as a gene.
I ral thing, and tI:nt if Chinese minors
chance to make money in them, there is
3 great danger that they will be robbed of
their earuingi and driven out of their
Itmines by thieves and robbers. They
say their people are not respected, bti
are put down to the level of ctiulo and
horses ; they are in constant danger of
violence and satffer illusage in overy part
of the State. They say of the threats
of riot antid bloodshetd, that they conswuer
most of them as idle talk, but woild not
I do anything to provoko an attempt to
I execute them. The conditiotn of the
people is described ; that thousands uf
them are withont, work, can get notie,
and are destitnte of food and other
necessaries of life ; that, the merchants
have extended temporary relief to sone,
but that all cannot he aided. For these
and other reasons they deprecato the
policy of sending any more Chinamen
here. Of die female immigrants they
I say that tie women who 'have com
hera have brought, inflnt disgrace, not
only ot liheise'lves, but on the iore
i'--T:"''lbh Chiotnee here. They also
are idvirl sitav 0it, 11U . Ta1u, "bief
Smen the Six Companies think the
issnance of the circular will tend to

peeping ; three men were on tho top ot
the roof, looking down through gimlet
holes that they had bored through tho
siigles; one wits perched upon the
flue, looking down the stove pipm ; and
we saw several pairs of stogy boots
kicking fromi under tlift houso, belonging
to persons who were looking up through
cracks m tihe floor.
At imdnighlt, we ngain made a recon
