Republican State Convention. Hakrishcrg, April 16, 186". 'The "Republican State Convention" will meet at the "Ilerdic House," in Williams port, on Wednesday, the 20th of June next, at 10 o'clock, a. M., to nominate a candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court, and to ini tiate proper measures for the ensiling State canvass. As heretofore, the Convention will be com posed of Representative and Senatorial Dele gates, chosen in the usual way, and equal in number to the whole of the Senators and Representatives in the General Assembly. By order of the State Central Committee. F. JORDAN, Chairman. GEO. W. HAMERSET, 1 0 . . J. ROBLEV HDCGLISON, J ' PCRETNR,ES FREE SPEECH IN TIIE SOUTH The recent tour of Senator Wilson marks a new era in Southern civilization, an era of free speech. lie has been closely followed by Judge Kelly, who, though not faring as well as his predecessor, nevei thele— goes as ■kterimnedfy forward in the work he has bid out for himself! Such men may lie ■"-•lb •! fomenters ofdiscord, disturbers of the peace, and reviled in a thousand ways by the Copperhead press of the country, but the work to which they have addressed them selves is a necessary one, the introduction into the South of freedom of speech and discussion. Wilson and Kelly, as pioneers in this work, deserve great credit for the manner in which they have thus far acquit ted themselves. It is at no small risk, as evinced in Judge Kelly's case, that they go before promiscuous assemblies, of men who have been lately in rebellion, and advocate the cause against which they fought, ami this in a section of country where for .rears past, but one side of the political questions of the day has been allowed a hearing. But a free country cannot exist without free speech, and the rebellion will not be effect ually crushed, nor will it be prudent to withdraw the military forces from the South ern States, until every citizen can speak his political sentiments in public, whenever he may choose, without fear of molestation. That imprudent speecheswill be made, is to lie expected, but no one is obliged to listen to them; the remedy, in a free country, is to go away out of hearing, but not to under take to prevent anyone by force from a free expression of political opinions. This, it is true, may be a new experience for the chiv alry, but it is a necessary one, and until they learn the lesson thoroughly, they need not expect to be allowed to undertake to govern themselves. It may be contrary to the views and wishes of the late rebels South anil their allies North, but the day when North ern newspapers and political speakers can be shut out has passed away. The print ing press and the ballot-box have an impor tant mission to perform in eradicating the vicious habits of Southern society, contract ed through the corrupting influence of slavery, and it will be performed despite the convulsive efforts of conquered rebels to re sist it. The newspaper will be placed up on every threshold, and the ballot in the hands of every freeman; they to whom free dom has been given, will also be given the power to protect and preserve that freedom. I'or the slave pen and auction block must be substituted the school house and the church. Henceforth the negro goes forth to his labor to the cheerful sound of free dom s songs, and not to the clanking of chains and the snap of the slave driver's whip. Intelligence must henceforth take the place of brtlte force. The inducement of a liberal remuneration must henceforth bo the incentive to labor, and not the whip ping post and stocks. When these things are accomplished the South will become rich and prosperous, and they who strive to retard the work only put farther off the day of their own prosperity. In this work Wil son and Keiiy arc the pioneers, but they will be followed by as many more as the ne cessities of the case may require. It i 3 the most important part of the work ofrecon construction and will not be given over until fully accomplished. The enlightened sentiment of the country declares that 'eternal vigilance is the price of Liberty," and free speech and a free press are the un sleeping sentinels upon her watch-towers. THE .SECRET of Copperhead fault-finding witli the speeches of such men as Wilson and Kclley in the Southern States, is thus let out by the Georgia Chronicle: ' 'The white population arc already divided in po litical sentiment, and there is danger that the Radicals will carry the State." The Mobile Advertise> tells the same tale in the following: "Every solitary vote will be tic- ecssary to prevent Akbama from being as completely radicalized as Congress or Mas sachusetts. It is the probability, that, the stumping of the whole South by a class ot uien of whom Wilson and Kelly are only the forerunners, will convert the people from Copperheadism to Republicanism that troubles them. Here is whore the shoe pinches, and this is the true cause of their anxiety in bcl.alf of the South. 9®- Wc have been seriously considering "A Proposition" in the last Gazette, and have made some inquiry of the faithful fol lowers of that reliable journal, with a view to ascertain whether they would sanction such an arrangement, but wc have had the uniform reply: "If suchja 'bargain' is made, the editor of that paper will want to be the nominee, and we have had quite enough of him. lie would refuse to trade off Coroner for Congress unless he were to be the candi date." We see the "snake" in that "Pro position." However, the gentleman made a very fair estimate of his "true worth," and under the circumstances the exchange would be very advantageous to the tax payers of Bedford county, but God help the J<egi-1- ture! It would be fun for us but death to the frogs. I ffisU The jubilation of the Gazette over the release of Jeff. Davis is only an out i burst of the old passion. The rebels both North and South are in ecstaeies. Two years ago they would have concealed their emotions, and swore until they were hoarse that they were good Union men. Murder I will out. fraT The Gazette has become so accus tomed to charging all the political ills of the country upon the Republican Party, that it ha- the hardihood to try to make its ig norant readers believe the Republicans are responsible for the deficit discovered in the Poor House account. When had the Re publicans the control of this county? Our friend across the corner is "go ing" for Horace Greeley most lovingly. How strange it is that a few rubs against a traitor is a perfect Lethe; all the former de precatory acts of the man arc wiped out, au l he becomes as completely the centro of attraction the lode star. Yea, he becomes the "true magnetic pole" to which all such "hearts point" "like trembling needles." 8-aT A few of the old Cops have been terribly put out at the course of the Gazette in endeavoring to palm off the errors in the Poor House account upon the Republican Party. They have heretofore gulped down everything that veracious sheet has uttered, but they cannot swallow the idea that the Republicans have had control of the records for the last dozen of years. That's a little too tough! ■©, It i* astonishing what entire harmo ny of sentiment there ia between the Gazette and INQL IRRB in regard to the Poor House deficit. We asserted that the Treasurer was not responsible, the Gazette was indig nant that any one should suppose that he was; we asserted that the Poor Directors hail nothing to do with it, whereupon the Gazette swore most roundly that they had not; we intimated that the responsibility rested with SOMEBODY, the Gazette blandly winks over its nose, and says somebody. We niggest the County Auditors, it frowns a little, makes a few wry faces, and says— NOTHING ! Silence gives consent. Arn't we getting along swimmingly? TROUBLK WITH THE PRESIDENT. —The Copperheads are just now having a trouble some time with the President. He has had invitations to visit a number of places to be present at the dedication or corner-stone laying of monuments. His keepers, having in remembrance the Presiden tial "swinging round" of last summer, and its consequences, are taxing their inge nuity to the utmost to prevent a repetition of last HUH mer's folly. Andy has served them many good purposes, but his travel ling performances have not generally accru ed to their advantage. We advise them, by all moans, to keep him closely caged unless securclv muzzled. Tite EDITORS of the Bedford IKQVIRER will also have enough to do if they keep their own door way clean. Little speculations i n bounties, substitutes, Ac., have been known to help some Abolition newspaper establish ments amazingly. Let such tellows skin their own ikunks. — Gazette. What a model fish-woman the editor of the Gazette would make! We immagine wc sec her portly dimensions swaggering through the stalls a perfect "periphery" or "rhomboid." Phew! couldn't she read the pedigree of any O'Connell who chanced in her way. The above quotation is a speci men brick. The last line is a very chaste and refined one. However, this dirty busi ness must be done too seme times. AH the amusement we indulge in of this kind, is con fined to the skinning of the editor afore said. THE South Carolina people are disgusted with General Sickles for forbidding them to convert their corn into whisky, and compell ing the firemen to salute the Stars and Stripes. He might at least permit them to make the yellow corn into one of the "neces saries of life." A considerable quantity of this has been sent down by the Relief Socie ties, to the people who arc starving, and as they are unable to eat it they might be al lowed to drink it. General Sickles has noti fied relief committees to send white corn, as Southern people will not eat the yellow va riety. Comparatively little white corn is raised North, and when we contribute to the necessities of the poor we must give such as we have. If they cannot take it in a solid form, why not let them make it fluid? — Pitts burgh Commercial. THF. Pittsburgh Commercial says:—Some one criticising the choir in Beecher's church says that during prayer and the reading of the scriptures, "they clatter, giggle, sidle up to each other with a familiarity out of place in the parlor, and doubly so in the house of God. Sometimes one or two seem to get into a temporary 'pet' with the organ ist, and sit off looking daggers. Then the process of reconciliation, with its billing and cooing and glancing, and final restoration to good humor, furnish sufficient visible flirta tion to piece out a chapter of Miss Brad don's Donsensc." That is by no means the only choir who enact such scenes for their own amusement, or that of the congregations for whom they, "Praise God from whom all blcisings flow." ORDER IN MOBILE. General I'ope has shown his understan ding of the circumstances attending the late riot in Mobile, by deposing the ex-Rebel General Withers, who held the office of Mayor. This action proves that General Pope having investigated the circumstances attending the disturbances, believes that they were premeditated, and that the Mayor took no care to preserve peace. Ex-Mayor Withers says he "submits to the argument of the bayonet, "and vacates the office." This is clever. Having tried the argument of the bayonet himself during the Rebellion, he appreciates the piercing nature of its logic, and can understand how frequently it triumphs. His removal, he thinks, is an imputation against him, which will be agreed to by most persons; but we suppose that he will wait for his vindication from time which may or may not come to his res cue. Mobile, it is to be hoped, will be here after under better government, and General Swaync will take tare to see that the laws arc faithfadly executed, and the rights ot American'c/tizens maintained. — PhibuleTn Statistics of Crime. The National Intelligencer, in discussing some statistics of crime published recently in the New York Tribune , remarks with what we must regard as a fine confusion of ideas that "it is obvious enough what open ed the floodgates that have caused the wide spread demoralization and criminal acts in the land," and that ''the prime necessity is therefore especially obvious of a return to a reign of order through the absolute rule of judicial tribunals under legislation based upon fundamental rights and constitutional authority." Now, we hardly need say, we shall welcome for many reason- the complete restoration of the "absolute rule of judicial tribunals" upon the basis described by the Intelligencer, throughout the United States. But it seems to us a pertinent inquiry whether the condition of things which has existed for the last four or five years has in reality "opened the floodgates" and caused "wide spread demoralization and crimina] acts." Most of the statements on this subject, we apprehend, are simply guess work; perhaps we should not he far wrong in setting down as such that made by the Intelligencer. But it happens that so far as regards our own State there are carefully prepared sta tistics which may be safely presumed to bo trustworthy. In the last annual report of the secretary of the Board of State Charities the secretary discusses thecomplaint that crime is on the increase, and expresses a de. cided belief that "this increase is much less than is commonly supposed." His statistics show that the reported whole number in prison in 1858 was 1G,5U2, in the county prisons alone; while in 1880 the actual num ber in all the prisons was less than 12,500. Moreover the number of females committed in 1888 was 2828 against 5051 in 1885; and the number of children under fifteen years of age committed was reduced from 404 in 1865 to 545 in 1888: that is to say, compar ing the last two yeirs, crime among women has diminished ten per cent., ar.d among children twenty-five percent." We arrive, then, at these results from the secretary's figures; that not only ha* there been a gratifying improvement oblate in some important particulars, but that the figures for the past year, when compared with those of a year of average crime before the war. are actually twenty five per cent, better. And the inference, if any, to he drawn as to the effect of the war upon Mas saehusetts is that it has been favorable to the cause of good morals. It is certain that a fear was quite com tuonly felt and openly expressed by thought ful persons during the war, that one of its disastrous after effects would bo a great in crease of crime in the country. Such ap prehension was natural enough per ps; but it is now clear that too little confidence was placed in the general law abiding charac ter of Americans, and that the favorable effect of the stringent discipline of military service upon many turbulent spirits was not sufficiently taken into consideration. The figures just presented are of course conclu sive only as to the condition of the State from whose records they were made up; but it is quite probable that analogous results would be arrived at by equally accurate methods in other parts of the North. We cannot see, then, that there are any reasons for alarm as to the bad effect of the war upon the morality of the country. Massa chusetts has to show directly to the contrary; and we shall wait for much stronger evidence than any yet presented before admitting that her condition is exceptional.— Boston Advertiser. ®©"Our neighbor intimates that we have been in the substitute business.

The talk of the hour is Mr. Greeley's ex cited pronunciamento to the New York Union league. This |>ajer might have been dignified, the question at the bottom of it being a great one, and Mr. Greeley evidently believing that he occupies a very high moral stand, in fact asserting that he is on a plane above this age and generation. Why, standing so far above us all, he should lose his temper, and indulge in intemperate invectives, we are at a loss to understand. Why lie should head his vituperative docu ment in such a remarkable and grotesque styie, like a bombastic show man, _ we do not know, unless it is a shrewd advertising dojlgc. Certainly it is a violation of good taste and propriety. Mr. Greeley, bciDg a professed reformer and progressive, should know that his cxpletory Culmination, in tone, temper, style, and language, is behind the age. Angels do not get angry, and swear. The fact is, to tell the mundane truth, that the philosopher has lost his temper be came he has lost his subscribers. 'Thou sands" of his readers have "yelled "stop my paper." This is his own classic relation of his troubles, and, as we stated three days ago, we know it to be the fact, only if Penn sylvania is an average example of the States, he should say tens of thousands. Mr. Greeley does not seem to know exactly what is the matter. The truth is he has not brought down on himself the storm of popular indignation and contempt and condemnation by baiting Jefferson Davis but by the offensive manner in which he did it, violftiing all the proprieties of patriotism and dignity The cOwntry are grieved o>d pained that he should assist fuisoinely and with flunkey pride in a pageant to a traitor —for trial or no trial, bail or no bail. Jeffer son Davis is now known, and forever will be known to to this people only as a guilty, for sworn traitor. He can never explain away his broken oath as a senator of the United States; he can never wash awav the blood of Gettysburg or Antietam; he can never cover the horrors of Andersonville and Libby. It was hard for the people of this land to know that there was to be DO official condemna tion of the murderer of their bravest chil dren, hut it was revolting and sickening to see a man like Mr. Greeley shake hands with the murderer, and smile and smirk around him. That is where the trouble is. Our platform is simple. We urge equal and exact justice for all. We want equal and exact justice for Davis too. If it hangs him we cannot help it, nor is it our busi ness. — l 'h iladelphia Press FKOJI EUROPE. NEW YORK, May 27. —The Herald has the following specials by the cable: ST.
