With as much reason he might kick because nature denied him the facility ol "common sense." It is highly improper lor candidates to cm lor delegates, and this system should be denounced as u uursauce too intolerable to be borne, it is enough tor the people to know w ho the candidates are, with out being dogged to support their pieteusions, which has not unfrequeiitlv been the case. Delegates should be choseu for their purity of character, and not with the mere view of ?(cicini; lor one or the o tlter of the aspirants. The people would do well to look with suspicion upon any candidate making un due efforts to procure delegates Io piomote his parti cular interests, and, instead of being thus influenced, they should turn to some other pei son for a tit repre sentative ot their principles.

Whenever a Democrat ic Executive chart- j ce-d to pinion a convict,Tio matter trom what cause, he was denounced in the mo-t scurrilous terms, by j the united opposition press ot Pennsylvania, and by j every bob-tail politician knee high to a duck. He was charged with treating Courts and Juries with contempt—and they even went so far as to tie- 1 nominate "these institutions" a humbug—a farce— a mere creature at tire meicy of a Governor!—At the i tune thev were kicking up this lu.-s, we assured ihe i people that the whole thing was trash, meaning noth ing— and that, were the Executive of their party, they would approve in- course were he to open all the Prisons and Penitentiaries ui the State, and turn loose j upon the community, in a single day, all the murder- j ers, thieves, and other vagabonds there confined —and the proof to sustain this declaration ha- already been made so clear anil manliest a> to leave no doubt in j the mind of any body. If any man ever abused the pardoning power, the present Know Nothing Chief .Magistrate l,,is. lie has liberated the most abandoned criminals, on tile slightest pretext; and, in order to screen ceitam no torious and infamous convicts, he lias given the lie direct to a law of his own making, in which be ofii cially declared, with trumpets am! fioutishes. that he would grant no pardon unless notice of the applica tion was published in one or more of the papers ol the county in which Ihe convict was sentenced, the ; pardon of key,, for attempting to commit a rape ori a child, is a case in point, the facts of which were set forth in an article we published last week from the lloHidavsburg N7i/W,and the act is more severe " j ly denounced by an article which wecopy to-i.av irotTi the litdn' ( okhlii !i e/g which fiie, at its mast head David Wilmol foi Governor, and to which we invite e,special attention.

Vermont, went to the Lechinere Hotel—a hotisn of bad reputatiofl in Cambrulge—and occupied a private room. Mr. K. bad the room warm-d, after arriving at the hotel, i ' and occupied it with the btdy referred to, both be . fore and after the lecture which lie delivered that e vening. lie had been invited and had accepted tiie ! invitation to vi -,t the Rev.

Ihe time in reading his lecture—a lectuic, by-tln-.by, which he had several times delivered in otti r place's. I After the lecture he declined to visit Mr. ilollund, I because he was in a hurry to g-t home ; but he went to, the I.eehioere House, and temained ahont an tiour. While then: he called lor .n .1 drank aw tik-kei - ng. and paid the landlord five dollut- for the • i entei;a:i, uiefit." All this i- rnncecled. As to' what took place in the room lie occtipied, we prefer to be -1-i t. Four witnesses te-tiiy lo acts which would constitute him aiiimu.al; but it may be that they -wiar fal-nly. They certainly, on the night i .ier I e.l to, if 111 •■ r t •- - tiinony can he relied on. resorted to steps to ascer tain hi-doings which no honorable p.-i-mi can iu-ti ly ; and we are stile that of the people who sb. to siicli meanness, there are hut lew on whose testimo ny we would rely to cor.viet any person n crime.
