On the first' Monday of June next Vill be held in llltnols one of the most Important elections in which the peo­ ple of the State can be called upon to act. Five of the judges of the Supreme Court are to be elected on that day.-- Of the seven judges who now consti­ tute that Court, the terms of office of the following will then expire: David J. Baker* of .the First District; John Scholfleld. of the Second District; Ben-> jantln R. Sheldon, of the Sixth District and T. Lyle Dickey, of the Seventh.-- All of these gentlemen, except Judge for re-election to the Supreme Bench. As we gather from our cotrespondence. and from personal interviews with persons from all parts of the State, it is the wish of the people to retaiu upon the Bench all the present members of the Court who are willing to give to the public their services in that capacity. The Supreme Court is the court of last re­ sort--It is the dual arbiter npon all questions which affect the life, the liberty, and tile property of the citizen. The rule adopted by that court in the decision of one case, f« binding, upon all the other courts in the State in the adjudication of cases of like character. Permanen­ cy In the tenure of office Is of the first importance, to the eiid that certainty M*d uniformity may bo attained, so far a<iUiej' may be Attained by hutnan wisdom. Frequent changes in the ttemherslijp of courts of last resort have a tetul»ucy to produce uncertain­ ty Lujudicial decisions, and unsettle est a I dished rules. Under the present constitution a new eysteni lia« arisen in regard to inauy Important questions affecting the pub­ lic w«lfufc;1iotably those having refer­ ence to taxation and the creation of UHMik'ipal indebtedness. So far as tliese questions have already come, be­ fore the Supreme Court they have been settled in harmony with the interests <of the people, and according to the tuie spirit of the constitution. But jtliere Is much more to be done before tlds new system shall |iuive assumed Its perfect symmetry in the light of judi­ cial construction. Many questions yet remaiu to be determined. We enn best secure that perfect symmetry by ifoutiuuiug on the Supreme Bench the men wlto have thus far so ably ex­ pounded the fundamental law. Since the establishment of our elective judi­ ciary by the constitution of 1848, the people, by their considerate Judgment and conservative action, have fully vin dieatud the system against the doubts of those who hesitated to make the Ju­ dicial tenure dependant upon the pop­ ular will. There has been uo abler eonrt in this country, nor one more free from the tsiut of public suspicion In respect to Its integrity, than the Supreme Court of Illinois as it has existed un­ der the elective system. The people have done more wisely In that regard than perhaps they knew. This Su­ preme Judicial tribunal is the pride of the State, and a vindication of popular elections even as applied to the dell~ cate task of relectlhg the men who shall be the chief mlnieters in the temple of justice. The gentlemen named as candidates for re-election. Justices Scholfleld, Bcott.,Sheldon and Dickey, are all of them men of large experience, of distinguished ability, and of unquestioned integrity. Judge Baker, we have mentioned, is not a candidate for re-election to the Su­ preme Bench, from whence he was taken by appointment of the Govern­ or to fill the unexpired term of the late Sydney Bresee. Judge Baker has al­ ready placed upon the records of the Supreme Court evidences of his emi­ nent fitness for the high duties to which lie was called by the executive and he will be returned to the posi­ tion of his choice wi tbout opposi­ tion. The question of the suoeesslon of Judge Baker in the Supreme Court setrin to point to Judge John H. Mulk- ley, of Cairo, who is an able lawyer, and a gentleman of the highest per­ sonal character, and from present indi­ cations he will be elected without op­ position, tfStT'A little boy in Roxbury, Mass., who was seriously ill with the diphthe­ ria, was the owner of a small dog, which had b«en denied access to the sick-room. One day the dog manag­ ed to slip in. and before the attendant could prevent, sprang to the bed and aflectionately caressed the boy, lap- pi »g his race and mouth. The little boy began to recover from that mo- menr, and regained his health, but the dog died, with every symptom of diph­ theria. From the Inter Ocean. AXOTItKtt VKTO. The second veto message of the Presideut is even stronger than tlie first, and reveals so plaluiy the impu­ dent demands of the State rights ad­ vocates that it eannot be read without a feeling of Indignation that such de­ mands should be made by a party which Is alive to-day only by the eufterneee of the power it seeks to humiliate. * The fn(cr Ocean is disposed to look favorably upon indiscriminate vetoes It believes this prerogative of the Ex­ ecutive should be exercised with caution and only for the most positive reason. But the President will certain­ ly be upheld in his action in this in­ stance by the great body of the people. The doctrine of State sovereignity as interpreted by the latter-day Democ­ racy is exceedingly distasteful to the nation* It has cost the country much, and has been a consunt^ menace and annoyance from the day it was first promulgated. The question of its presence in American politics was sub­ mitted to thti arbitrament of war and the doctrine went to the wall. It was supposed that the contest was forever ended, but no sooner, does the Demo­ cratic party obtain a foothold than it rises again to trouble aud perplex the people of thss oouutry. We are glad the Issue, If it must come again, has been raised thus early. Tile Republi­ can party can afford to appeal to the country upon It, and need not fear tiie result. Democratic politicians. North and South, will learn in due time what they do not seem to know yetf^ in spite of all their experience, that this is a nation, not a congregation of indepen­ dent planets, aud that it will insist up­ on the necessarj' power to protects Its own laws. The party that seeks to cripple and debase it td the exultation of any petcy state government, win be wrecked as surely as the rebellion failed, aud will go down to the same defeat that overwhelmed the Confede­ racy. The President deserves honor for the stand lie lias taken. His message is a sufficient platform of itself upon which to fight a campaign and win It. The North Is "solid" for the doctrine he enunciates, and will support htm with earnestness, determination, aud enthu­ siasm, ' ' ' A Monster of the Oeep. There seems to be considerable doubt hanging around wlftit that sea monster shot by Captain Chudwick, of the tug Alpha, on Tuesday laat, really Is, Some say turtle, some say devil-fish, and the Captain himself Is of the. opinion that |L was '"Old Nick" himself, and here­ after sinners may have no fear of pun. Ishment In the Infernal regions, In fact, everybody who hears about It has a different theory, and no two persons can agree on wlmi it is or where it be­ longs. The Smithtfehl pilots say that his Satanic Majesty has been on the coast for the last twenty years, and he has never met any one who was bold enough to attack him until the gallant tar of the Alpha hove down on him and put an end to Ills career, Capt. Chad- wick sighted the "thing" about eight miles ofl Western bar,and Immediate­ ly steered toward it. When within a short distance of It he fired at it with his rifle, the ball passing through the neck and killing it. It required six men, with their utmost strength, to pull it over the rail, and it Is estimated that It weighed 600 or 700 pounds. The animal was seven feet long and three and a half feet wide. On the back wus a hard black shell, like a turtle'*^ with three ridges running lengthwise.. The head was as large as a water bueket, and in the mouth extending down into tiie throat Mere rows of soft teeth. The tail projected in three prongs. The fius aud feet were like a turtle, with the exception that there were no clavFB.-- Wilwinflton (2V, C.)»S></». lerCongressmaii Joyce, of Vermont Is confideut of a Republican victory in 1880. In the House of Representatives tiie other day, he thus addressed the Democrats: "You have missed the golden oppor­ tunity for victory, and your political doom in 1880 Is already sealed. The rising wave of republican triumph is now gathering Its conquering force end will soon strike the golden shores of the Pacific, and rolling eastward, bear­ ing upon its sparkling crest the proud ensign of our great leaders, will engulf the famous political chameleon of Ohio, bury the ambitious holder of the gavel from Pennsylvania, drown the backsliding statesman from Delaware? overwhelm the great railroad aud revenue fraud at Gramercy park, aud liually swallow up in its mighty flood the last remnant of the democratic party.

No FariiW who till* TeiHiferetfof land can afford to be without a Randall one Every "Day A Southern View ot the Kisdu. When 3,000 negroes are on the bank atone place on the Mississippi, await­ ing transportation to Kansas, It is use­ less to speak of the movement as spora­ dic and unimportant. I,ike an army the negroes will pass over the bodies of those who fall by the way, and make of the vanguard a bridge to bear the rest of the column in safety^ The very passion which the negroes have for the Old Testament and Scriptural figures «nnd analogies make3 them prone to pin their faith to any one who promises to lead them out of ttye wilderness. They are ripe for It. There is always a Can­ aan for them, a happy land to be readied by marching on ml dst danger and want. In slavery their yearning was for the "Gospel train" and the'-Old Ship of Zion."to carry them td a place of rest; In freedom confronted by hard work and small pay, they long tor a new delivery, whether it shall come in the shape of Liberia with its molasx$s trees or Kansas with its golden grain. It will take time to overcome this falla­ cy, If It can ever be overcome, for to tlie negroes the supremacy of the Dem ocrats in the South is a cause for un­ easiness, if not al&rm. Curiously enough there la a steady flow of colored peo­ ple from other counties to Beaufort county, the only county in this State which the Democrats did not carry at tlie last election,--Charted** Newt and Courier (Dem). V6|r A correspondent of tlie HaUroad makes the following suggestion as to the conduct of passengers-toward tick­ et agents and conductors, which some­ how a considerable class of travelers seem to have found out aud practiced for themselves. •'When you get to the stHtien, hnnt up the agent and csk him - what, time the next train goes. Never mind tell­ ing him which way, for he cau ask you that, it will show whether he Is pay­ ing any attention to your question.-- Then ask him what time all the other trains come, just to see if he knows.-- If you think of It, ask if they stop, if they are freight or passenger, and any other little things you can think of, for you know he gets paid for an­ swering questions. It don't matter whethei you Intend riding on the train or not. If you are tired go and sit 't down, but do "Hot re«t longer than Is : necessary, for you have not Inquired if the road Is going to change time soon, and what time the train would be like­ ly to(get through on the new card. Ask liiin what time trains run by on his rtvtd. aud how much faster that is than Chicago time, for he knows, and if he does not tell it h beeanse he is uncivil. Juntas tlie train is coming, aud the1 agent is closing his window to go out to the train, rush up and tell him that you want a ticket. Don't say anything about where you want to go. See how near he can guess at it. Give him a ten dollar bill, and after he has hurried up to get out his change box* if there is any silver among it. say to him, 'here. I guess I have got the change,' for that Is the way to find out his dis­ position. Then It is a good time to tell liitn that you have a trunk to check. The world was not made in a day, and what's the use os being in A hurry, you know. Put your ticket In your pocket book, and button two or three eoats over your pocket. Don't make a move to get it ready for the conductor un­ til he asks you for it, for he may miss you, and you would be that much ahead. Then he has. lots of time to wait, but if he hasn't that Is not your fault. During your trip, ask the con- dutor all the questions you asked the agent, for perhaps the agent has lied to you about them. If the conductor answers you short It is because he is mad at your buying a ticket. He wanted you to pay him so he could knock down the money--for th»y ell steal, you know. J^The man who received first pay­ ment under tiie arrears of pension act at Washington, was Major General Robert C. Schenck, formerly Congress­ man from Ohio, and ex-Mlnlster to England. General Schenck has been receiving a pension for the past few years for wounds received during the war. a||sounting to 830 per month, and under the arrears of pension act he was entitled to 84,626, which will be one of the largest sums paid. He received his check which was marked No. 1.-- The reason of the large amount paid General Schensk Is that he did not draw his pension for several years, and it bad reached this amount by accu­ mulation. Of the several thousand checks that have already been signed General Scheuck's is the largest, and the smallest was 8190. Tits average amount paid Is 8850.

C.

The y| Maine election oecnrs early in Septem* ber and great stress Is always placett/ upon the result there. It IR well here that the Rcpnblicans- will make great efforts to recover the State this ;; 1 year from the G re e r. buck-democrat I <J coalition, and this Michigan movement ^ Is probably a part of the general plat| . h to offset these efforts. The address of ^ the Michigan Greenhackers appealing i for aid for the "brethren in Maine*' had caused a ripple here, and will have th«# effect te incite both shies to unusual ,-j work. Maine will be a pretty ho$ State politically this year. I am ln^ A clincd to think, however, that the flghf jl f jyill be more between the Democrats!:; 3 and Republicans than it was last year,, v» and that Greenbackisna as a distinct sue is losing »its hold there as it it r / elsewhere. • ; v *t To-day the Senate is debating the4, general appropriation Mil, or ratherjp the political aspects of It, SenMor^"1. Windom leading oft with one oftfce^. \' ablest speeches yet delivered on Ite Republican side. He replied to speech of Senator Hill, of Georgia, who asserted "that secession waat brought about In the extremities of '1 the North who threatened the proper- ty of the South.'* In February 1881, said Senator Windom (n reply, a Bep- publicau House of Representatives* by ; a two-thirds rote, parsed an amend- - ^ ment to the Constitution prohibiting! t h e p a s s i n g o f a n y C o n s t i t u t i o n a l ' ' J amendment giving Congress the power" ^ to Interfere with slavery In any State ?

Senator Wlndom's i speech was throughout an able effort to Justify the Republican measures,, ^ and to show that the Federal laws protect the ballot wefe but the natural outgrowth of the new antUtate rights,: ^ policy which he said Democrats the«4^5l selves had acknowledged to-have beeh^/i established as a rule of Government by the issue of the war. t" \";l, , The Senate has passed the Howe bill^J; providing for the payment of another{:" - Installment to Capt.

The furniture was iu keeping with the plaoe, and while there was furnished every thing nec­ essary to eomfort, nothing very extrav­ agant was seen. Never before in the United States--If anywhere in the world--has there been given a ball at : the depth of nearly a quarter of a mile i beneath the surface of the earth. There was no trouble, about persons Into the ball room without tickets.
