Oub horoscope of tbe Democratic Stato Con volition has been mibHtantially verified. A letter from General Hancock declining tbe Gubernatorial nomination was produced. The Cass men made a strong effort in behalf of their favorite candidate, but, after a few pro liminary demonstrations of tho overpowering Strength of Asa Tucker, he was nomiuuted by & large majority. Some months ago, when he first coHSonted to become a candidate, the belief prevailed that he would encounter no s.rious opposition, and his friends were con-S'd'-rubly surprised at tho active resistance to Irs i retensions which was subsequently de Tulo ;.ed. They have mastered it by arosolute pTo; '; however, and he will no doubt receive -.L 1,:.. .,.,..1.. rrUn llr- riminl support oi urn jiuiij. .Llenl sketch we published on Jlond.iy .. a good outline sketch of his career, and . unnecessary to recapitulate tho facts which our readers are already r. There is much to commend v f M i.i 11 haracter. His industry, integrity, en e. and liberality are unquestionable. t Tpl ... 1 L I L fn..l...r.A in j: nun amassea me largest pnvuto iwhim w Mate, mainly by his connection with en t : ises which have facilitated the develop iiii : of its resources, and the labors of his lrc have been of an unusually practical and u. "nl nature. He is a great railway king, i. iu ; omething of a politician, but his chief t . .. to Democratic favor is to be found in his lui.iness success. Some years ago, when tho IT 3w York Herald elaborately advocated the l, mination of "Live-oak" George Law for tho Presidency, the proposition was ridiculed t hroughout tho country. And when General Clrant offered to A. T. Stewart, the famous importer, the position of Secretary of tho Treasury, tho Democratic "press considered this selection singularly unfortu nate. Yet Asa Tacker has now been made the Democratic nominee for Governor of Pennsylvania for reasons substantially hiinHar to those on which Law's Pre sidential " aspirations and Stewart's ap pointment as a member of the Cabi net were based. There is nothing in Judge Packer's barren political record, which would Lave won the favor of his party. He was a Silent member of the Legislature, and when in Congress he did not merely refrain from Speech-making, but during a large portion of his term he was not even present to attend the sessions of that body. His large business interests absorbed so much of his time and Attention, that ho frequently failed to respond to the call for yeas and nays. AVith a fortune trembling in the balance of financial revul sions and industrial revolutions, he had little disposition to listen attentively to dry debates, or to study closely the thousand and one de tails "which make up the sum and substance of legislation. If he should be elected Gover nor, it will not be at all astonishing if he will he at Harrisburg, as he as at Washington, much more deeply interested in the mul tiform affairs of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company than in the batch of laws spawned by the Legislature, or . the general welfare of the Commonwealth. Aside from partisan considerations, one of the Strongest objections to his election is to be found in the magnitude of his personal in terests, and the watchful care which he will naturally be disposed to bestow upon them. While his enormous wealth places him bey nd the reach of the ordinary pecuniary tempta tions, the public can scarcely expect that his heart will not be with his treasures, or that he could bring to the duties of the executive chamber the singleness of devotion to the Commonwealth which would characterize tiie administration of a model Governor. Politically, Judge Packer has been a faith ful follower of the Democracy through all its devious windings. Living in one of the strongest Democratic districts of the Union, his political action has always been in strict consonance with the majority of those by whom he has been surrounded, and he has clung ta his party right or wrong. When tho troubles of Kansas originally commenced, no man had a better opportunity than himself to comprehend the iniquity of the Border-Ruffian movements, for the first Governor of that Territory, A. II. Reeder, was his especial friend; but though he endeavored to shield Reeder from some of the persecutions to which he was subjected, Judge Packer soon learned to yield unquestioning obedience to the unjust dictates of Southern arrogance, after the infaraous crusade against freedom in Kansas was made a test of partisan fidelity. He will doubtless prove a blind follower of his party leaders in the future as he has in the past, and it is as a representative of the Democracy that he must be judged by the people of Pennsylvania in the coming elec tion. The platform on which he was nomi nated reaffirms some of the old heresies of the organization, and forces into the canvass the main issues which now divide the people of the nation; and in triumph or defeat he v. iM be a devotod adherent of the false guides v ho have inflicted so many miseries upon the nation. THE MISSISSIPPI ELECTION. PnEbiDKNT Grant has issued an order desig ratine Tuesday, November 30, as the day mum wliinh the new constitution of Missis- fciciri. adopted on the lf.th of May, 1868, at Jackson, is to be submitted to the poople of the State for ratification. The President, by authority of the act of Congress passed at the f loso al tao last gosHlon,hAa submitted tq a sop ar ate vote four sections of . the constitu tion, one of which providos that "tho credit of the State shall not be pledged or loaned in aid of any person, association, or corporation, nor shall the State hereafter beoome a stook holder In any corporation," and the other i disfranchise participants in the Rebellion. The constitution, without these sections, is in accordance with the reconstruction laws, passed by Congress; and by offering the people of the State an opportunity to decide upon thorn separately, the Trosidont will doubtless secure the adoption of the constitu tion with all its essential foatures, which will entitle the representatives of Mississippi to present themselves for admission at the next session of Congress. While the condition of affairs in Mississippi and other of the unreconstructed States is not all that could be desired, yet there is a very general feeling throughout the country that the completion of tho work of recon struction ought not to be much longer da layed. Over four years have now elapsed since the downfall of the Rebellion; we have a President in tho chair in whose integrity of purpose tho people have confidence, and it certainly seems as if the time had arrived for the adoption of a liberal policy towards the South. So long as the late Robel States are unrepresented in Congress, so long will the development of their resources be delayed and all their industries retardod; dissatisfac tion will prevail, and the dominant party will be held responsible for all the evils of the situation. The reasons for delaying recon struction which were forcibly urged while Andrew Johnson was using all the influence of the executive office to foment disturbances no longer exist, and it is even better to run all the risks involved than to continue the present unsatisfactory stute of affairs. The old Rebel element will doubtless endea vor to gain tho control of the State, but this would be the case if reconstruction was post poned for an indefinite period; and our only policy is to grapple with the situation fairly, and let the contending parties fight it out on equal terms. There is every probability that the sections of the Constitution excepted by the President will be defeated, as those of similar character were in Virginia, in which case the President ought to give all the aid that he properly can to the radicals, to pre vent tho Rebel element from gaining any ascendancy, at least until the new Constitu tion has had a fair trial. Between now and the date fixed for tho election there is ample time for both parties to develop their strength; and as the day approaches, we will be better able to judge what the effect of the President's concessions is likely to be. THE SPANISH COLONIES. The Spanish difficulties appear to increase instead" of diminishing. The regency, to all appearances, does not work as well as it might, and gives satisfaction to neither the monarch ists nor the Republicans. Serious disturb ances exist in various parts of the country, which give the Government much trouble. The Regent has already been obliged to reor ganize his Cabinet, and the richest of the colonial provinces of Spain in the New World, Cuba, is in a state of revolution which tho mother country is apparently unable to suppress, and to supplement these difficulties we have tho intelligence that an insurrection has broken out in the island of Madeira, and that a republic has been proclaimed. Troops have been sent to put down the revolution ists, but Spain has need of all her sol diers at home, and it is doubtful whether a sufficient force can be sent to produce any material effect. The great colonial em pire w hich Spain once held has slipped piece by piece from her grasp, and there is no doubt that it would be a positive benefit to both parties if she would consent to give tip the few remnants that are still in her posses sion. It is difficult, however, for a nation to relinquish any of its possessions, although ex pediency and sound policy may point to it as the most judicious course to pursue. ! Ex cept, perhaps, a few naval stations for a groat maritime power, colonial dependencies are anomalies in the present age. The American revolution taught England this fact, and her statesmen have again and again reiterated that, when Canada and Australia are re.itly to sever their connection with the mother coun try, there will be no obstacle placed in their way; France andRussiacametothesamo conclusion when they sold their American possessions to the United States, and if the Spanish Gov ernment would make up its mind to give up Cuba and Madeira, it would have no cause to regret the action. The insurrection in Ma deira is a curious indication of the growth of republican ideas; and, like the Cuban revolt, it is a legitimate result of the Spanish revolu tion. If the men who snatched the power from Isabella II had acted with generosity and fairness towards the colonies, they might have retained them without difficulty; but, as the matter now Btands, the colonists feel that they have participated in none of the benefits of the revolution, and they have accordingly struck for their independence, with every prospect ot success. The Sjengehfebt. The Socngerfest, at Bal timore, came to a conclusion yesterday in a manner satisfactory to all the participants. Our citizens will be pleased that one of the first-class prizes, a Knabe piano, valued at $1500, was won by the Young Miennerchor of Philadelphia. The musioal performances throughout the entire festival are desoribed as being of a very high character, and such assemblages of singers frequently held cannot but have a beneficial effect on the musical culture of the country. The most important moral to be drawn from this and other Swn gerfests that have been held during the last ten years is that it is possible for a large number of men to meet and enjoy them selves in a rational and intelligent manner without having the pleasures of the occasion marred by disturbances and rioting. The Germans, while haying their own plea sure uppermost in their minds, are entitled to the gratitude of good citizens of every degree for the good influences which such festivals as that just concluded unnuostion jibly cxcit. Tub Visit or Princk Arthtto. The Cana dians are all in a flutter of super-loyal excite ment im anticipation of the expected visit of Prince Arthur, the third son of Queen Victo ria, and on kis arrival there will undoubtedly be a grand jubilation, in which the colonial heart will overflow with gratitude towards this Rcion of royalty for his condescesion in visiting their shores. The young man will probably exteud his tour through the United States, and he should receive a cordial but not an adulatory wolcome on all Bides. We have a number of serious grievances against England, but that is no reason why we should behave in any other than the most hospitable manner towards this member of the royal family; indoed, it would be inconsistent with the American character to be anything else than cordial; but there are reasons, political as well as personal, why we should not in dulge in any excessive demonstrations. About Prince Arthur very little is known; his char acter has scarcoly had time to develop yet, but he is said to be much more popular than his elder brother, tho prospective King of England. It is to bo hopod that ho will turn out loss of a scapegrace. Nkw York Incomes.
