Under ihe demagogical nom de guerre ol "People's Party," the Abolition Republicans of this State, met in Convention at Harrisburg, on Wednesday of last week, for the purpose of making their initiatory arrangements for the coming campaign. The result of their labors, was the nomination ol Thomas E. Cochran, of Fork, for Auditor General, and Wm. H. Keim, \jf Berks, for Surveyor General. These nomina- /-• "'T— A ruir w l'r wM ' ~lL) geographically as well as personally. The two candidates are lrom the same section of the State and too tar removed from the strongholds of the Opposition. The Northern and Western parts of the State are entirely unrepresented, and these are the districts to which the Abolitionists must look for their majorities. It is, therefore, quite reasonable to suppose that Messrs. Coch ran and Keim will not be able to bring out the Opposition vote. But more than this, Thomas E. Cochran is known the people of Pennsylvania as one of the most inconsistent and dishonest of politicians, lie is remembered as the ir.an who denounced David If ilmot for his free trade vote in 1 846 and who, neverthe less, suppoited that same free trade Wilmot for Governor in 1857. To the "Straight Ameri cans," his name is familiar as a candidate on the "Union State Ticket" in 1856, and as one of the men for whose benefit their own leaders declared they were sold "like sheep in the shambles ." Next to JORDAN, Cochran is the weakest of all the candidates whose names were before the Convention for Auditor General. As to the nominee for Surveyor General, his only recommendation to the Convention, was the fact that he was elected to Congress from Berks, through a division of the Democracy in that district. He was chosen, not because he had any claims upon his party—not because of any superior ability, or merit—but simply because he was deemed an available man. In his nomination the Convention threw aside all regard for capability and suffered itself to be governed entirely by motives of expediency. Our opponents will find 'hat their truckling to old Berks, will be indignantly spurned by the Democracy of that county, and that their hopes of maintaining a foothold in that ancient Democratic Gibraltar, are groundless and illuso ry. We are glad that Keim has been nomina ted. The people ol Berks county and of Pennsylvania, know his antecedents, and the fact that they do, ought to be sufficient to sink him "deeper than plummet ever sounded."—ln conclusion, we assure our Democratic friends that the Opposition could not have done better for us than they have in nominating Cochran and Keim. An easy victory awaits us at the coming election, it we all do our duty. Let the Democracy but will it, and our triumph is certain. [Special Despatch to the Gazette.] BY TELEGRAM. Phila., June 15th, 1859. The annual examination of the Cadets of VVPSI Point was concluded yesterday. Among the names of the first in graduation class is that of Abrarn K. Arnold, son ofCapt.John Arnold of your place. Lieutenant A. is a clever young fellow and is the first Bedford bo)', I believe, who has ever graduated at West Point, and her citizens ought to be proud of his success. DEMOCRATIC COUNTY CONVENTION . The responsibilites which devolve upon the Democratic County Convention, called to meet on Tuesday next, are highly important, but v.e doubt net the Convention will meet them in the proper spirit. Let harmony and union be the watchword of every delegate, and let it be always borne in mind that we have a common enemy to fight, who will keep us busy enough without any quarrels among ourselves. Let the nominations be made with special regard to the interests of the people and to the interests of our glorious party, which is now the only safe-guard of our beloved institutions. Demo crats who are candidates, will go before the Convention, sensible that all who ask for nomination, cannot be successful. Their manliness and sound Democracy, therefore, will admonish them that it is their duty to supprt the ticket of the Convention, whether their own names are on it, or not. Remember the fierce contest of 1856. It will be duplicated in 1860, and the enemy must not gain any advantage. Bedford County is sound to the core and will remain so if we are but true to ourselves. OPPOSITION HARMONICS. YVhat a remarkably harmonious organization is the Opposition to the Democratic party ! In Massachusetts its adherents are Free Trade men and in favor of the disfranchisement of naturalized citizens. In Pennsylvania th ey pretend to be Tariff men and ignore the Massachusetts "Two Years Amendiment." In Ohio they are anti-Fugitive Slave Law men and opposed to the peculiar doctrine of their Massachusetts brethren. In New York they are Abolitionists of the deepest dye, and in Virginia they vote tor a slave-holder lor Governor. In Illinois they are opposed to the encroachments of the "slave power," and in Kentucky they insist that Congress must establish a slave code for the Territories.— How consistent! how harmonious ! DIDN'T GET THE NOMINATION. The great Temperance- Whig-Jug-Law-Know- Nothing-Black-Republican-People's Party offi ce-seeker, FRANCIS JORDAN, lias again been "laid on the shell "by his party. A third lime has this persistent hunter afterjollice, failed in his attempt to ecure the nomination he sought. First, in 1857, he was beaten for the nomina tion for Governor. Again, in 1858, McPher son defeated him for the nomination for Con gress. And now, in 1859, after weeks of electioneering on the part of himself and his friends, he is once more unsuccesslul, the last object of his ambition being the office of Audi tor General. Poor Francis! ANOTHER FIRE. On Saturday morning last, at about 6 o'clock, the cabinet shop of Isaac Mengel, Jr., in the western part of our town, was discovered to be on fire, the devouring element having already made so much progress that it was impossible to save the building, or scarcely any of its "* ' M ' "NN 4 1 Mr. Mengel's dwelling, which was almost wholly consumed, nothing but a part of the charred and blackened walls remaining. The house of Mr. Andrew Middleton, situated in close proximity to the buildings destroyed, was also somewhat damaged, its preservation is due to the praiseworthy efforts of the Engine Company, which certainly did its duty on this occasion. Mr. Mengel's loss is estimated at some SSOO or s<3oo. The buildings burned were owned by J. P. Reed, Esq., and were uninsured. DCPOt" the 133 delegates to the late Black Republican State Convention, 34 was the highest number that at any time voted for Fran cis Jordan, for Auditor General. As Francis came so near being nominated, his ft iends ought certainly to bring him out for Governor, next year. [CP'The report of the Military elections, published in our paper of last week, turns out to have been incorrect as to one of the offices. VVm. Dibert, of Bioody Run, is elected Major, instead of B. F. Horn, as stated in our account. We should also have said that Major Morgart commanded the regiment at Bloody Run, assisted by Capt. Sansom, Brigade Inspector elect. [GP*J. B. SANSOM, ESQ., of the Fulton Democrat, has been elected Captain of the McConnellsburg "National Guards" ("gods"). Sellers, of the Republican, was the former Captain. The Fulton editors seem to have a monopoly of the military in that county. [EP"The Black Republican Slate Convention is said to have been anything but harmonious. The proposition to call a "People's National Convention," caused much confusion and angry discussion, and its rejection has incensed the Know Nothing wing not a little. The Opposi tion ship can look out for squalls. ttP"After we had gone to press last week, there was a rumor, which has since been con firmed, that the Central Bank, at Hollidaysburg, had closed its doors. At last accounts it was redeeming its notes in small quantities. Such are the blessings of the banking system, for which onr political opponents so warmly contend. [fp*There is no important European news, this week. GARIBALDI, the Italian patriot, it is rumored, was defeated by a superior Austrian force, but this report lacks confirmation.— Napoleon had changed his head-quarters to Casale, with the intention, it is presumed, to move upon Milan.

THE PRESIDENT'S TOL'R. . President Buchanan arrived at Raleigh, N. C., on the night of the 31st ult., and was wel comed by an immense crowd at the railway station. In the absence of the Ma* or, who was indisposed, the welcome speech was made by Hon. D. M. Barringer, as follows : MR. BARRINCER'S SPEECH. MR. PRESIDENT —In behalf of the citizens of Raleigh, I give you a hearty welcome to the capital ot North Carolina. We offer you a wel come and hospitality without vain display, and receive you with a cordiality frank, generous and without dissimulation. We welcome you not only as the Chief Magistrate of a great na tion,but as one who in a long life of public service, amid all the mutations of mere party, has shown himself to be the true friend—one of the greatest advocates and one of the ablest de fenders of the Constitution and the Union under which we live. (Applause.) The people of North Carolina are a law abiding people.— North Carolina was among the last of the States to adopt the Constitution and come into the confederacy; she will be one of the last to stand by the principles of the former and to abandon the blessings of the latter. (Applause.) We are a people who believe that liberty cannot exist without law; that licentiousness is not liberty; that true liberty consists in obedience to just laws made by the people themselves.— You are welcome in the midst of such a peo ple. From every portion ol the Stale you see the signs ol welcome; from every portion of the State they have come to the capital to greet you; and now, in the name of this vast assem blage, I greet you and welcome you, not as a conquering hero, but as one coming on a mis; r - Hli __ - A.i* a oc ull uv the spectacles presented in both hemispheres to-day. In the one we meet three crowned heads leading their hosts to battle amid all the pomp and pageantry peculiar to that form of government; in the other we are receiving without much ceremony the President of a j great nation enjoying all the blessings of civil | and religious liberty. (Applause.) Again we give you a cordial welcome to the capital of the Old North State. THE PRESIDENT'S REPLY. FELLOW-CITIZENS—I cannot fail, whilst gratitude is the feeling of my heart, to recollect the reception which I have met from inv fel low-citizens ever since I entered the State of North Carolina. My public lile has been long; I have been engaged in many political con flicts, but the reward of a long life is now in your approving smiles. lam glad to be with you here; lam glad to be in the capital of North Carolina, rightly named Raleigh. The tirst attempted settlement that was ever made in the Union was within the limits of your Slate, and you have given the name of that great man to your capital, and his name will thus be perpetuated among Ireemen for hun dreds and thousands of years. He lell; he was the victim of a weak, pusillanimous and wicked tyrant, who sacrificed his life to gratify anolhei tyrant of the Old. World. But, thank Cod, no such injustice can be practiced here among such a great and glorious people. You were famous rebels in the time of the revolution.— (Laughter.) Lord Cornwallis said that vou were the most troublesome set of people he ever had to deal with; that as fast as he moved to one place the people rose behind him, and he was never master of any ground except that occupied by his army. (Applause and laugh ter.) You were the first that raised the stan dard of independence by your glorious Meck lenburg declaration, and to deny the power of Great Britain. But you have done belter since. You have rallied round the govern-* ment that your forefathers made—you have been true to the Constitution and the Union, and will remain so as long as the piinciples which have actuated you for half a century continue to animate you—as long as the young men preserve the civic virtues of Macon and other distinguished statesmen of your State.— You have not only produced distinguished pa triots, but scattered them abroad, and wherever your native sons have gone, East or West, North or South, they carry with them the prin ciples of the Old North State. I trust you will cherish a recollection of these great men and follow their example. It has become fashionable ol late years to discuss the value of the Union. Its price cannot be estimated.— It has become fashionable when any little dis content arises in the country to threaten to break up this glorious Union. These threats were not spoken of when I was a young man —they were not spoken of twenty years ago— not that I was very young twenty years ago. But let us reflect, it is not every transitory or real evil in the administration of the govern ment which ought to induce us to think of dis union. The tide of public opinion fluctuates, and if we have evil to-day, as long as the U nion is preserved we may expect good to morrow, through the American people. If they go wrong, they will, after some reflection, lake the backward track and soon get light.— If, .. the frenzy of political excitement, this| great Union should be dissolved, ages yet un born will curse the day that we had in our trust the liberties of the woild. Let this Union cease to exist; let the sovereign sister Slates be sepa rated; let intestine wars arise, and liberty upon earth is gone forever. This would be the joy and the delight of many, while every friend of civil and religious liberty will consider it the worst catastrophe that ever man endured.— (Applause.) My friend here relerred to what was going on in the Old World. Four mil lions of men are collected together by the sovereigns of the Old World, and the despots are ready to enter into mortal conflict and to destroy each other. And for what? For the interests of dynasties. But the poor people from whose hard earnings the money is extor ted to pay the expense of this war will be the sufferers. The spectacle of which my friend here nas spoken ought certainly to attach the people ofthese United States to their country. You are a sovereign people, and here I am a creature appointed by them, not to rule over them, but to administer the government accor ding to their wish, and to be responsible to them for the manner in which I do so. The worst of it is that I am held responsible for many things Ido not do. (Laughter.) But although my career is about to close, and my public sun is about to set, yet I shall forever cherish a grateful recollection of my visit to North Carolina. As long as I live 1 shall re member this day as one of the proudest of my life. (Loud applause.) Judge Black—Gov. Bigler—The Bedford Gazette —Col. Forney in 'sl and Now. HUNTINGDON Pa., May 18, 1859. HEAR SIR :—A friend has handed ine the Daily Pennsylvanian of June 21, 1851, con taining the following pithy paragraph taken from the Bedford Gazelle, accompanied with the well-timed and truthful remarks of the then editor, J. VV. Forney, Esq. I have taken the liberty of sending the article to you, that Col. Forney and the apostate Democrats associated with him at present may see the sentence pronounced on political conduct such as theirs, bv himself. Had any one told him at the time he penned them, that his own political apostacy would so soon follow—that he would in a moment of disappointed ambition aim a blow at the men and party that raised him to honor, he would have been jeady to exclaim, like Hazael, "But what is thy servant a dog, that tie should do this great thing 1" Yours truly. [From the Pennsylvanian, June 21, 1851.] WORTHY OK IMITATION ! —Three years since, Judge Black and Col. Bigler were both candi dates tor Governor, and were defeated for the nomination. They neither complained nor found fault with the action of the Convention, hut expressed themselves entirely satisfied.— How have they been rewarded for their devo tion to Principle ? The lapse of a very short period has elevated both to trusts equally high and responsible, the most exalted in the gift ol the people. How full of admonition this is to aspirants to "bide their time."— Bedford Gazelle. There is a great deal of practical phillosophy in this paragraph. All History abounds with evidences of the disasters that selfish men bring upon themselves by trying to avenge their dis appointments upon others. The disinterested Democrat—or rather the Democrat who sub mits to the majority of his party, and gives his fVpport to those who have fairly defeated him, t| Uy, gLt i I U.. ii he takes the course of a disorganize!*, and tries to foment dissensions, no matter how he may succeed in doing harm to his party, he is sure to be a doomed man himself. Nothing so wins upon the people—nothirg is more in ac cordance with our political creed—than a manly submission to the decree of the majority ; and we never see a disappointed politician making himself ridiculous, without pitying his selfishness and his blindness.— Pennsylvanian, June 21, 1859, edited then by J. IV. Forney. Ohio Politics. The Black Republicans of Ohio had a good (ieal of trouble in their late State Convention, j The Cincinnati Commercial, a Republican j sheet, says : "The committee on resolutions had a furious session. The fight was over a resolution de nouncing the Massachusetts Native amendment. Hon Tom. Cor win was in the ch3ir, and L. D. Campbell was fugleman for the Natives. Mr. Jacobi, of Hamilton, contended for the resolu tion finally adopted. Hen. Mat. Nichols sec onded him. Mr. Corwin got mad and left the Committee room. Finally he came back and resumed the contest. The Hon. T. C. Dav stepped in and demanded the resolution as a dopted. The resolution in the platform was voted down three times, reconsidered, and finally passed. Meantime the facts leaked out, ?nd in tense excitement ensued. Mr. Nichol wrote an amendment denouncing discrimination be tween classes of citizens, vehemently, and was ready to denounce the committee's original ac tion. Had the Corwin-Campbel) policy pre vailed, there would have been a violent scene in the Convention." It is evident that this Massachusetts amend ment, disfranchising adopted citizens resident in that State for two years after naturalization, is destined to be an ugly bone of contention be tween the two divisions of the Opposition to the Democracy. If the Republicans repudiate "the" action of their Massachusetts brethren, they inevitably drive the Know Nothings from their ranks, and force them to a separate or ganization, in maintenance of the "principle" of opposition to "foreign influence" to which they are so strongly wedded. On the other haod, if they assent, either by silence, or an open avowal, to the action of the Massachusetts Republicans, they will lose the support of the entire body of naturalized citizens in the Wes tern Stales—which has, unaccountably to us, foimed no inconsiderable portion oi their strength, of late. Take which view ol the question they will, an awkward quandary, by no mean 9 favorable fo their success in 1860, presents itself. WORTH KNOWING.—A young lad)' in this city, says the Philadelphia . Morning Post, while in the country, stepped on a rusty nail, which run through her shoe in to tier foot. The inflammation and pain were very great, and lockjaw was apprehended. A friend of the family recommended the application of a beet, taken from the garden and pounded fine, to the wound. It was done, and the effect was very beneficial. Soon the inflammation began to subside, and by keeping on the fresh beet, and changing it for a Iresh one as its virtue seemed to become impaired, a speedy cure was effected. Simple and effectual remedies like this should be known to every one. "The Strongest Man in the World" Pros trated. Dr. George Winship, says tlf Boston Jlllu* ot May 3lst., attempted to lecture last evening, at Mercantle Hall, on "Physical Education." The hall was filled to overflowing, attracted, no doubt, by the lame of the lecturer in rela tion to his prodigious feats oi strength, it hav ing Jbeen claimed lor him (hat he was the'stron gest man in the world." Dr. Winship com menced reading his lecture promptly at 8 o'- clock, and had proceeded but a tew moments before his voice began to fail and became weak and tremulous, and before the audience general ly were aware of it, he dropped directly upon the platform. Several gentlemen rushed to the plattbrm and immediately bore him to the adjoining ante-room, where Dr. Walter Chan ning and other? attended upon him. It was soon announced that he would go on with his lecture in a few moments. He appeared, and after apologizing to the audience, said it was the first time he had ever fainted. He then proceeded with his lecture, and had read but a few pages when he again became overpowered and retired just in time to save himself from another swoon. By the advice of physicians present, he was dissuaded from attempting to go on with Iris lecture, and it was announced that it would take place at some future time. The audience, on retiring, were allowed to receive tickets or money, most of them taking the former. It is said that on being taken from the hall his heart had ceased to beat. Dr. W. accounts lor the unfortunate affair on the ground that the atmosphere of the hall was close and impure. His friends, however, re gard it as caused by the peculiarity of appear ing before a public audience for the first time. Dr. W. lias for several years given much at tention to the subject of physical education.— He is twenty-five years of age, five feet seven inches in height, and weighs one hundred and forty-thre pounds. He graduated at Cambridge five years ago. He can raise a barrel of flour from the floor on to his shoulder; can raise himself with either little finger til! his chin is half a foot above it ; can raise 200 pounds with cither little finger ; can put up a dumb bell of 141 pounds ; exercises daily with two dumb bells weighing 100 pounds each, which he can raise alternately above his head can iift with the hands 920 pounds dead weight, without the aid ol straps or belts of any kind. Topham, the strongest man in England, could raise only 800 pounds in the same way : and the celebra ted Belgian giant could lilt only 800. Dr. YV. was prepared to exhibit all these feats, but the unexpected turn which events took prevented it. The strong man proved to be an infant. Exciting News from the Gold Mines. ST. Lotus, June 10.—Advices by the express coaches from Denver city to the Ist have been received at Leavenworth. They contain extraordinary reports calculated to renew the gold fever with ten told more virulence than ever. Rich nuggets have been discovered on the north fork of Vasques Creek, principally coarse gold and decomposed quartz. Great excitement prevailed all through the country. The statements of yields at Gregory's and other mining companies are almost fabulous. A company from Indiana is making lrom $l5O to sboo per day. Other accounts are ol the same character anil unvarying. Many letters written under the influence of the prevailing excite ment are in strong contrast with previous ftlonmy fpport®. Tha JwjA taken out of Orogor alone is estimated at $20,000. Denver city is almost depopulated by people leaving lor the mountains. Provisions continued scarce. $20,- 000 were offered for claims. Subsequent arri vals will determine the certainty of this infor mation,but no accounts now received differ in their tenor. Rich specimens were received by tiiis arrival. This community is intensely ex cited. REMEDY FOR POISON.—A correspondent of the London Literary (lazelte, alluding to the numerous cases of death from accidental poi soning, adds : "I venture to affirm that there is scarce a cottage in this country that does not contain an incalcuable, certain, immediate remedy for such events, nothing more than a desert spoonful of made mustard, mixed in a tumbler of warm water, and drank immediately. It acts as an emetic, is always ready, and may be used in any case where one is required. But take this simple antidote, and you may be the means of saving many a fellow creature from an untime ly end. [CP'Strumous or Scrofulous affections are the curse, the blight, the potato rot of mankind.— They are vile and filthy as well as fatal. They arise from contamination and impurity of the blood, and are to be seen all around us every where. One quarter of all we meet are tain ted with them, and one quarter of these die of them: die foolishly too, because they are cura ble. Ayer's Sarsaparilla cleanses out the Scrofulous corruption from the blood, renders it pure and healthy, and effectually expurges the foul contamination from the system. No longer groan under your Scrofulous disorders, since the irresistible Ayer has provided his masterly combination of curative virtues that he calls Sarsaparilla.— Democrat, Waterbury Ct. DIED: On Monday, Ihe (ith inst., Mrs. Francis Gilson, wife ol Alex, 'Jilson, near Bedford, in the 48th year of her age. in the decease of this estimable woman, there was a complete triumph of Christian faith. Death was not terrible to her—the grave presented no gloom to her mind. "Christ died," was her language, "He laid in the tomb; he sanctified the bed; he arose and triumphed ; so all his followers shall arise and triumph over death and the grave." Mrs. Gilson was a Christian before she took sick; her Christianity was not a death-bed repentance, brought about by the necessity of circumstances ; but she was a humble professor for years previous, and an exemplary member of the German Reformed Church. Ihe day belore her departure, on being as ked it she had any word to leave for her pastor , who was absent, she said, "Tell him 1 die strong in the faith." How highly esteemed are such church members, and how bard to part with them !" She has left a bereaved husband and six children to imi tate her Christian example. She enjoyed the plea sure, whilst living, ol seeing three of her children, also enter into covenant relation with God through Christ, in the solemn rite of confirmation ; and two of the three only a few weeks before her death.— Her bereaved family and relations have much com fort in the consolatory reflection, that "Their loss is her gain."
