Of Allegheny County.
v- JUDGE WILLIAMS, THE HEPUBLIO AN
CANDIDATE.
"' The nomination of Judge Williams, of
,i Pittsburg, as the Republican candidate for
' "Judge of the Supreme Court, seems to give
entire satisfaction to the party. In Pitts
burg, Judge Wllliftms i regarded by the
Bar as the ablest Judge in the District, end
' hence his nomination was urged with great
' Zeal and unanimity , by his friends in the
r west, though not without great doubts of
. . success, as it was feared the strength of
several popular candidates in the east would
be too great to overcome. Fortunately the
Convention saw the propriety of normnating
. .. one of the best and least exceptional men
named for that office, which, they did with
great unanimity. They have thus given us
: a better man for that office than Judge
-.. Sharswood, for the reason that Judge Wil
liams is.in the vigor of life, being nearly
twenty years younger than bis opponent,
" while he is, to say the least, fully his equal
' . In legal acquirements and vastly his supe
' rior iu loyalty and patriotism. Judge Wil-
liams will never bo accused of having any
doubts in regard to using coercive measures
' to put down a rebellion, nor can he ever be
.. charged with the folly of .having declared
that "slavery was a blessing," or of that
' ' equally ridiculous and more dangerons ab"

gf The Atlanta iVtw Era, tho organ of
ex-GovcrBtor Joseph . Brown, of Georgia,
says that the Stanbcry opinion and the Pre'
sident's policy are "death to the South,"
and hopes that that officer "would have dis
cretion enough to let the military district
commanders alone, as under their judicial
guidance reconstruction was progressing
rapidly and satisfactorily." General Jeff
Thompson, a prominent officer in the late
Confederate army, unconditionally endorses
the letters of Gen. Longstreet, which have
fallen like a bomb into the ranks of the
Democracy, In these remarkable letters
Gen. Longstreet asserts that "the Democratic
party has no issues save thoso which were
staked on the war and lost," that the party
which fought outthe war had tho right to
settle the terms of reconstruction, and that
the present military reconstruction acts
were a peace offering, and should bo honest
ly accepted and embraced as such. ,
ta7 vauanaignain now says he never
sympathized with the Southern rebels. If
he did not he has been greatly misunder
stood, both North and South. lie had much
better do as Gen. Longstreet and other lead
ing but honest rebels have done, and ac

by the Republican" State; Convention, hold
at Williamsport, on tho 30th ulC: '
The Republicans of Pennsylvania appeal
ing again to the peoplo, take pleasure in re
calling the repeated occasions on which the
voters of the Commonwealth have sustained
and ratified their candidates and principles,
and Btrongly impressed with the importance
of the issues Involved in the ensuing elec

and purposest - .... . , ,
Firt. That, In tbt name of the nation
saved from treason, we demand security
against its repetition, by exacting from the
vanquished such guarantees as will make
treason so odions as to baforevor impossible.
Seoond. That, as in the past we cordially
justillcd the administration of Abraham
Lincoln in all necessary acts for the sup
Dressins of the rebellion, we' record it as
our judgment that the administration of
Andrew Johnson has been chiefly faithless,
in that It has failed to try to gather up and
fix in the organic and statute law the great
principles which the war has settled, and
without whose adoption as a rule of action,
peace is but a delusion. and a snare.
Third. That, in the completion of tho
task of reconstruction, as firmly as to be
perpetual, it is indispensable that traitors
bosten in the field shall not find a sanctuary
in ine courts ; mat tne law shall not bo tor-
tured to justify or palliate tho crimes of
which the country's enemies have been cuil
ty, and that the law of the war shall bo so
distinctly declared bv tho courts that no
disturbing and paralyzing doubts may ever
bo raised, as in 1801, aiTocting the essential
rights of the Government or personal duties
of the citizen,

of this Commonwealth are herebv tendered
to Major General Sheridan and Maior Gene
ral Sickles for their publicly-declared un
willingness io; do moao instrumental, in tue
startling and truthful words of the former,
"in opening, under Presidential dictation, a

and that this convention confidently expects
that General Grant will vindicate his past

merits our condemnation for his reckless
pardon, and attempted restoration to politi-
tui nguis, oi many oi tne cnict conspirators
against the Union ; and that especially his
persistent efforts to compel the release of
Jefferson Davis without question for his
crimes, are a reproach to the administration
of justice and an insult to, the whole loyal
people of the nation. "
seventh. That warned by past misfortunes.
we ask that the Supremo Court of the State
oe piacea in Harmony with the political
opinions of the majority of the peoplo, to
the end that the court may never a train, by
unjust decisions, seek to set aside laws vital
to the nation, nor imperil the safety of tho
public securities, nor impair the operation
of the bounty, pension and tax laws, which
were required tor tho public defense ; nor
in any way thwart measures which were es
sential to the other hand, it may become
and remain a fit and faithful interpreter of

public faith, and an impartial and fearless
exponent ot the equal rights ot man

feature of the ' Republican creed, we trust
that such legislation will be secured, at the
earliest practicable ' period, ' as will afford
adequate protection to American industry.
Jimth. That, in conformity with ttic
pledges given last fall by both candidates
for Governor, we now demand the enact'
inent of a free railroad law, by which the
enterprise of our people may be stimulated,
and the resources of the Commonwealth
developed,

we recognize an honest and courageous
public servant, who, in tho chair of State,
is adding freshness to laurels gallantly won

ple to tue soldiers and sailors, whose brave

of the Treasury in postponing and ignoring

Twelfth. That in the Hon. Henry W. Wil

UMIOMPiCIFIC
RAILROAD COMPANY,
Are now constructing a Ruilroud from
OMAHA, NEBRASKA,
Westward towards tho Pacific Ocean, making with
il connections an unbroken lino
ACROSS T H.E CONTINENT.
The Comrany now offor a limited umount of thoir
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
having thirty years to run, and bearing annual in
terest, payable on the first days of January ond July,
in the City of Now York, at the rato of
SIX PE& CENT. IN GOLD,
AT
luely Ceii Is on the Dollar.
This road was complotcd from Omaha 305 miles
west on the 1st of January, 1867, and is fully equip
ped, and trains aro regularly running over it. Tho
Company hue now on band sufficient iron, ties, etc.,
to liuifh tho remaining portion to the eastern base of
the Hocky Mouuiuius, 212 miles, which is under con
tract to be done epieuibor 1st ot this yenr, and it is
expected that the entire road will be in running or
der from Omaha to its western connection wilb tho
Cantrnl Puoific, now boiug rapidly built eastward
trom bacramento, cal., during IMii).
MEANS OF THE COMPANY.
Estimating tho distance to bo built by tho Union
Pacific to bu 1,505 miles, tho United 6'tutes Uovern
meut issues its Six per cent. Thirty-year Bonds to
tho Company as the road is fiuishod at tho average
rate of about $28,250 per milo, amounting to $14,2U8,.
000.
The Company is also permitted to issuo its own
First Mortgage Bonds to au equal amount, and at thu
sametinie, which by spcoial Act of Congress arc
made a First Mortgage on tho entire line, tho bonds
of the United States being subordinate to them.
The Government makes a donation of 12.H00 acres
of land to the mile, amounting to 20,032,0110 acres,
estimated to be worth $30,000,000, making the total
resouroes, exclusive of the capital, $118,416,000 ; but
the full valuo of the lands caunot now be realized.
The authorised Capital Slock of the Company is
one hundred million dollars of which five millions
have already been paid in, and of which it is not
supposed that more than twenty-five millious at most
will be required.
The east of the road is estimated by oompetent en
gineer to be about on hundred million dollars, ex
clusive of equipment.
PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS.
The railroad connection between Omaha and thi
East is nowoomplete, and the earnings of the Unior
Pacifio on the sections already fitiished for the first
two weeks in May wore $113,000. Those section)!
earnings as the road progresses will mcb more thai
pay the Interest on the Company's bunds, and tin
through business over the only line of railroad be
tween the Atlantio and Pacifio must be immense
Value and gecm-Ity or the Ilomls
' The Company respectfully submit, that the abov.
statement of facts fully demonstrates the security o -their
Bonds, and as additional proof they would au?
f;ost that the Bonds now oft'ered are loss thsn ten mil
ion dollars on 517 miles of road, on which over twen
ty million dollars have already been expended :
on 830 miles of thi road the cars are now runuinp
and the remaining 187 miles are nearly completed
At the present rate of premium on gold Ibet

Aloe Per Cent.,
and U Is believed that on the completion of the roni
like (lie Uevemment Bunds, they will go above pa
