The Centennial Commission has issued an address to the people of the United States, signed by the President, Joseph R.

Mekedith, of Philadelphia, who was a member of the Convention of 1837 which framed the present Constitution, was unanimously elected President. A motion was made and carried that after the 1st of January next the Convention would held its sessions in Philadlphia. In our judgment this is a grave and 6erious mistake. Why not provide for an adjourn" xnent immediately preceding the meeting of the Legislature in January, and meet again when that body adjourned, fwhich ought not to be later than the first of April. The Convention could then finish its work by the first of August, which would give the people ample time to discuss and re flect upon the new Costitution before the October election. A committee of nine was appointed to report what subordinate officers were necessary and to fix the amount of their salaries. The committee reported on Wednesday. Every name on the list is that of a Radical, with that well known and accomplisbedblackguard, the notori ous Jim Onslow, of Pittsburgh, for Scr-geant-at-arms. If tho Convention is to be run as a Radical machine, and not in the interest of the people, it were better it had pever met. Its first day's proceedings are by no means indicative of an auspicious and satisfactory termination. The Great Hoston lrire. The great and appalling calamity which befel Chicago thirteen months ago, and which struck a sympathetic chord through out the country, has had its counterpart in the terrible conflagration which on Satur day night and Sunday last scourged the fair and wealthy city of Boston. Tho very business heart the commercial centre of that city has been destroyed, and where a few days ago stood massive and solid gran ite buildings in alftheir splendor, with their millions of dollars' worth of rich and costly contents, nothing now remains but ashes and ruins. The fire commenced at half-past seven o'clock Saturday evening and raged for fifteen hours with unabated fury. It extended over "about sixty-five acres of ground and destroyed nearly one thousand stores and other buildings, involv ing a loss variously estimated at from $80, 000,000 to $100,000,000. When the com paratively small extent of the ground burn ed over and the enormous loss sustained are taken into consideration, an adequate conception of the princely wealth of the city will readily Buggest itself. Although the ground swept by the fire at Boston is not more than the one-sixteenth of the ex tent of that burned over at Chicago, yet the aggregate loss is very nearly, if not quite, half as much. In Chicago a large proportion of the houses burned were frame, or otherwise of little value, while in Boston the finest and most substantial mercantile structures in the country fell a prey to the devouring element. Buildings of solid granite, with iron doors and abutters, and which were supposed to be fire proof, were melted like so much lead, and were swept away by the fire in its onward progress as though they were stubble. Unlike the conflagration in Chicago, where thousands of poor people lost their houses and their all, the destruction at Boston has been con fined almost entirely to costly and elegant edifices occupied for mercantile purposes, and although many wealthy men have been made poor, yet as a general rule most of the sufferers will no doubt rebuild and again resume business. It is a dreadful visitation, but as indomitable western courage and perseverance havo caused Chicago to rise from her ashes with in creased splendor, so will Yankee energy, sustained by Boston capital, speedily re store her to her former proud position as the queen oity of New England.

P., the Irish In Our local department will be. found the official vote of this county at the late Presidential election, as well as the vote cast for Bcckai.ew and ITartranft in October. The same table will likewise show the Democratic and Radical losses in November on the vote polled in October. It will be seen that the entire vote of the county in October was 6,353, while in No vember it was only 5.3S3, or 065 less. Hart ran ft received 2,823 votes and Grant 2,841 just 17 of a gain for Grant. Bcckalew received 3,530 and Greeley j 2,547 showing that 983 Democrats refused to go to the polls at the late election. These figures fully and satisfactorily dem onstrate the reason why Grant has a ma jority of 294 in the county, and any further comments are entirely unnecessary. The Cause and effect are perfectly apparent. It will also be seen that in every election district in tho county Greeley loses on Bcce.alew'8 vote, with the exception of the immortal East Ward of Ebensburg, where he gained one, and in Summitville, where he received precisely the same vote in November that Bcckalew did in Octo ber. As we said last week, Cambria coun ty is Democratic by a clear majority of 700, if every radical vote is polled, and it is not to be denied that they were all cast for Grant. She has proven her ability to give that majority in the past and she will make it good in the future, if wise and prudent couusels prevail. mm Ih view of the admitted fact that about tight hundredTjhousand negroes voted for Grant at the recent election, that element in the radical party has commenced the as sertion of its right to Presidential recogni tion. It demands a seat in the Cabinet for one of its own race and color. John 31. Langston, a colored lawyer in Ohio, is the coming man, and it is said that his po litical ambition will not be satisfied with anything less than the Attorney General ship of the United States. We have heard of Langston as a clever stump speaker, but are not well informed in reference to his abilities as a Constitutional lawyer. We presume, however, that they are at least equal to those of A. T. Ackerman, that bright legal luminary from Georgia who, until very lately, held the office to which Langston now aspires. In making thisdemand from Grant, we tli ink that tho colored troops are right. Eight liundred thousand voters are not to be sneezed at or treated with contempt. They are a political power now and will be so in the future. But will Grant appoint Langston ? There is the rub. If he has any of the milk, not of human, but of po litical kindness in his veins, he ought to do so rrora a sense of gratitude to the "man and brother." Williams, the present At torney General, says that he could have been elected United States Senator from Oregon if he had wished, but that he pre ferred remaining in his present position. If Langston is successful, then Williams -w ill not be in the Senate and will have to vatte the Attorney General's office all of wide) would be very hard on Williams. In this Langston business Grant will be compelled to show his hand, so that it can h wn whetfc it (s ichfa or Hack. Greeley and the Tribune. It will lie seen from the following card that Horace Greeley resumed the edi torial control of the New York Tribune even before the smoke of the lato political battle had cleared away. He gladly re turns to his first love, for it was not to be expected that after having been an editor for thirty years, and having spent two thirds of his life in a printing office, he would willingly relinquish a business or calling which to him had become a Becond nature. Mr. Greeley vows his intention of making the Tribune an independent journal, treating all parties and political movements with "judicial fairness and candor." The 7Wmti was a great , and controlling power in the land its pen was might iei than the sword and it is not a question of doubt that under the manage ment and control of Mr. Greeley it will again become one of the foremost, if not the foremost, journal of the country. Here is Mr. Greeley's announcement : , A Card. The undersigned resumes the editorship of the Tribune, which he relin quished on embarking in another line rf hnsitiesH aix months ago. As heretofore, it shall be his endeavor to make this a thor oughly independent journal, treating all par ties ar.d political movements with judicial fairness and candor, but courting the favor and deprecatinp the wrath of no one. If he can hereafter say anything that will tend to heartily unite, the whole American people on the broad platform of universal amnesty and impartial suffrage lie will glad ly do so. For the present, however, he can lest command thatconsummation by silence and forbearance. The victors in our late struggle can hardly fail to take the whole subject of Southern rights and wrongs into early and earnest consideration, and to them for the present he remits it. Since he will never again be a candidate for any office, and is not in full accord with either of the parties which have hitherto divided the country, he will'be able and will endeavor to give a Wider and Steadier rfrrI to that pro- Kress of science, industry and the useful arts than a partizan journal can do, and he will not be rovoked to indulgence in those bitter personalities which are the recognized bane of journalism. Sustained by a genrrous public, he will do his bet.t to make the Tribune a power in the broader field it now contemplates, an when human freedom was In peril, it was in the arena of political partiz&nship. Horace Greeley. New York, Nov. 6, 1872. mn a a The sudden death of Major Gen. Geo. G. Meade, of this State, has caused a feel ing of profound regret throughout the country. His death took place at his resi dence in Philadelphia on last Wednesday week, after an illness of only six days. He was in the 56th year of his age. His mili tary career is familiar to the whole .country. He commanded for a short period tho Pennsylvania Reserve Corps, which em braced a company of young and gallant men from this county. He was a thorough sol dier of the very highest type of the military character. He was brave and self-reliant, and few, if any, officers in the army, were more completely versed in the science and art of his profession. The confidence of the army of the Potomac in Gen. Meade was unbounded. He had risen steadily in it and had rejoiced with it in its victories and sympathized with it in its defeats. His name will be forever associated in his tory with the bloody and stubbornly con tested battle of Gettysburg, at which he was the Commander-in-chief and where he displayed military skill of tho very high est order. He was a soldier, pure and sim ple, and loved his profession ; and, unlike many of the would-be heroes of the late civil war who now control the radical party, he cast politics far behind him. The name of Meade will rank in history as one of the greatest and most distinguished officers of the great rebellion. TWELVE employ- thousand MEN OCT OF WENT.

It had caught in the engine room, and the flames spread with lightning rapidity up the large elevator, ana were him climbing underneath the woodwork of the roof. Engines were fairly at work before any other store had'eaught. The buildings in the vicinity were all of granite, four stories high, and each sur mounted with a mansard roof, none of them being over five years old.

The owl train from New York, due at 4 o'clock this morning, arrived at 7 o'clock, with several carloads of roughs and thieves, who cleaned out all the refreshment saloons en rovXr, with other robberies and outra ges. The military force in Boston will be increased if necessary. A battalion of cav alry has been added to the military guard tf the bnmt district, which now numbers fifteen hundred men. Attempts at rob bery and incendiarism will be summarily dealt with. The streets are almost impass able from the crowds of people in the vi- streams directed upon it from all quarters. Fire was constantly in the air, and one building after another caught on the roof and flames skipped lightly akng from one window sill to another, so that in less than ! thirty minutes every cheek was blanched I as it becamo evident that the whole city in j one direction was at the mercy of the , flames, which were leaping gayly f rom roof j to roof and from one building to another. The second building to succumb was di- , recti v opposite to that in which the tire first broke out, and was occupied by Marin. Mullen fc Elms, Harding Brothers & Co., Bowen, Moors & Co., George Lide, Carter & Co., and Conant Bros., all wholesale dealers in dry and fancy goods. This was at the corner of Otis place. The heat now became infernal. The street ran rivers of water and every moment - was heai-d the sound of granite blocks exploding and fall ing in the streets, making them impassa ble. The firemen were driven from one station to another and many engines were kept nobly at work, while hydrants were nsed by band hose. The engineer could onlv hold his place while a stream of water was kept playing upon him. Blocks of gran ite weighing tons were split as it .oy pow der, and hurled across wide streets, and planks went flying through the air as if they weie feathers. The firemen erected barricades, and worked behind them, but they were burn ed almost as 6oou as erected. An hour had hardly elapsed before it was evident that Beebe's block, the finest business structure in tho city, built of granite, five stories in height, with mansard roof over all, must go. Within thirty minutes the flames were coming out in fiery billows from every window, and up the stairway leading to A. T Stewart's rooms was a perfect column of flames. Pieces of dry goods went whistling across the square, lodging on the window sills of the magnifi cent stores on Devonshire streets. Beebe's block stood, a solid wall of granite, seve ral minutes after the inside fell, but the heat warped it and two million dollars soou lay a heap of stone, bricks and mortar. A hurricane now raged, and owing to the intense heat and perfect 6leet of coals it drove everything before it. Every build ing was now heated as if in a furnace and caught like timber. Four-story granite blocks seemed like shavings, and deafening explosions were constantly heard. A new terror was added to the babel of confusion. Tenement houses at the upper end of Fed eral street were fast being licked up by the flames, and women crazed and fainting were rushing to and fro, carrying children, crockery, clocks and bedding in their hands. One rau screaming through High street with a stove funnel in her hand, while another was tugging a heavy chest'which would have been a heavy weight for a strong man. Now and then a few pieces f goods might be saved by volunteers who ran in and spent five minutes, during which they could work, in bringing out perhaps a hundred pieces of cloth. One man, Marshall Cotter, got out 25,000 worth of kid gloves, and had thorn placed on the sidewalk in a damaged condition. He offered a hackman $500, in vain, to take the goods to a place of safety. In less than an hour he had to flee for his life, and the flames were not again cheated of their prey. The fire was now in Federal street, and the wool houses were now go ing like oil factories. They could never have been attacked at a more dangerous time, crammed from cellar to garret with goods. Hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth were on hand that might have been delivered to customers had it not been for the horse disease. In one store alone there was a hundred thousand dollars worth of wool tori, wbioh waa Awaiting doli vory. Minor, Beal & Hackett had their store packed full, having only put their winter's stock in three hours before the fire envel oped it all. March Brothers & Pierce had just put their Winter goods in the cellar and sent their Summer goods up stairs to be made up. The paper houses came next. With the end of Federal street went the majority of the large city dealers. It had been hoped that the fire could be stopped short at Franklin street, but the stores there were as vulnerable as any other. Freeman's National Bank went at 10 o' clock, and an hour later the National Bank of North America was in as bad a condi tion. later reports. Bostox, November 11. At ten o'clook this morning the fire was thoroughly under control. Upward of fifty engines were working, pouring continuous streams of water. The wind has not increased, and it is believed the fire will not again break out. The firemen, police, military and citizens, committees and others, are all thoroughly exhausted by the superhuman efforts of the past thirty-six hours. The city presents a strange and excited scene. State street is still piled with goods, now being removed, and everybody appears to be on the streets. Sleep and rest are un thought of. the fire drowned OCT. At two o'clock this afternoon the fire is still under coutrol, and is now considered thoroughly subdued, although the engines still continue at work. The crowds of people about the burnt district are immense. Telepraphic communication is seriously interfered with, and it is almost impossi ble to send dispatches on either hue, all the companies having sustained severe lasses.

It is alike creditable both to tho editor of tho Press and the veteran of tho Tribune : JTorace Greeley, the greatest editor that America has ever produced, comes baclc to his old place at the head of ths T ribun. We warmly welcome him on his return to journalism. Like all else that he lias written or spoken, his card, published in to day's edition of his paper, has the strength aud ring which ever accompanies the words ( of a true man. "Courting the favor and deprecating the wrath of no one" has Ik-cu Horace. Greeley's life-long motto. When '. he has arrived, after long and carefr.l thought, at any conclusion on matters of j governmental or party policy, he has never feared topntthat conclusion into his own . strong, terse language, and give it to the world, ready and willing to abido by and take the full consequences of his utterance, no mat ter what those consequences might be. ; He is, in a word, a true and honest man. ! Undar his rule the Tribune rose to its pres- ! ent high position under his rule it will con- ! tinue to rise, and will ever be the exponent ' of views which, although possibly Dot in ac cordance with those of a majority of his fel-low-countrymeh, will at least bn honest, able and pnre, the result of patient investigation and profound conviction. j May his success as a journalist be as great ' in time to come as it has been in the time that is past ; may he long continue to give ', utterance to those "sabre cuts of Saxon speech" which have won tor him fame and ; honor, and may he stand for many, many years at the head of the list of the editors of America. i Our dear o!d mother, Ireland, she too was and is a nation a nation out of whose mind two ideas have never perished ar.d never will, namely, that sue has a right to her freedom as a nation, and that she will be until tho day of judgment a Catholic nation. Cheers. Her history proves that never did Ireland in l.er darkest hour pull down the green flag and give up and say lam no longer' a nation. Cheers. Her history proves that all the powers on earth aided by all the devils in hell could not tear Irish Catholicity from the hearts of Irishmen. Irishmen, hear one who need not .tell you that he lores you. The mas ter passion of ;ny heart after the love I have for God and my religion, is that love for Ireland. There is no brother's love to divide it, or to interfere witli it. There is no woman's love to come in to share it n my native land, as she was in ail the vicissitudes of her history, as she is to-day in all her misery, as she will be on the day when the world will receive her among the nations here;the;audieiicc burst into cheer ing which lasted eveial minutes that is the subject of my love, and therefore I speak as a friend, a lover, and an Irishman to my fellow-men. No doubt the English gentleman who came over has CDiue to preach this gospel : "Irishmen have been badly treated, and they got what they tle terved : they did not know how to govern themselves, and it was a mercy of God that some one took them in hand.
