TIIE STATE CONVENTION.
The proceeding! of the Republican' State
Convention, which met and conoladed its
labors yesterday, were very harmonious. Can
didates for State offices were nominated on
the first ballot, and a series of resolutions
wore passed without opposition. While the
Republicans of New York seem to be striving
to see how much they can increase a Demo
cratic majority which already approximates
one hundred thousand, Pennsylvania, ever
true and steadfast, is making an auspicious
Commencement of a campaign which is
to determine her ability to maintain her com
paratively small but reliable Republican ma
jority. The platform earnestly favors State
reform, and demands the Legislature to im
mediately pass an act calling a State Conven
tion to revise and amend the Constitution.
It also favors the abolition of State taxes on
personal property, the reduction of national
taxation, the protective policy, and endorses
the leading measures of the national admin
istration. On all these points the masses of
the Republicans of Pennsylvania are cor
dially united; and if they will make proper
efforts to ensure success, there is no doubt of
the election of Stanton and Ueath in October.
JMriiO VED NE W YORK SEN8A TIONS
Difficult as it may for our readers to be
lieve the statement, it is nevertheless true
that New York improves. Her latest sensa
tions are comparatively innocent. They con
sist, first, in her rejoicings over the conser
vative maintenance of the antiquated common
law doctrine that the jurors in a murder case
must be so ignorant and idiotic as to know
nothing whatever of a recent murder that
excited the whole community. The tendency
of this doctrine to secure to murderers im
munity from punishment is so pal
pable that Tammany Hall has reso
lutely prohibited its amendment
legal modification, notwithstanding the
prevalence of a common sense principle of
selecting jurors in Philadelphia. Sharp and
Bhrewd Qothamites, therefore, naturally
plume themselves' upon their superior chances
for escaping the gallows, and thus excite the
envy of the Killers and Bouncers of this be
nighted provincial region. The second sensa
tion indicative of an impraved moral tone is
the interest awakened by two prize-fighters,
Mace and Coburn, who have lost the sole
virtue of their order, and are too cowardly
to fight. Formerly the high-toned
island of Manhattan demanded real fighting
before its enthusiasm was fully aroused. Its
favorite Congressman, Morrissey, and its
model hero, Heenan, won their blushing
honors by good stout blows, and duly reached
the pinnacle of New York fame after they
had done stalwart bruisers' service. But
now, through a series of progressive improve
ments of the New lork mind, the mere
bettiDg, training, agreement or promise
to fight, together with an occasional
jaunt to a proposed scene of action, which is
so publicly advertised that obliging officials
are sure to be present in time to prevent an
actual confiiot, serves to delight the elevated
and refined populace of the magnificent me
tropolis. If Mace makes mouths at Coburn
New York is ready to worship him; and when
Coburn boldly demands the stakes and cham
pion's belt as a reward for his skill in de
veloping the new system into a soienoe, New
York seriously considers what high offioe shall
be reserved for him. The third Bensation
of the day is the exposure of the peouliar do
mestio relations of the firm of Woodhull,
Claflin & Co., whose claim to be regarded as
financial, literary, and social New York stars
of the first magnitude is fully established by
the judicial exposure of their peculiar sur
roundings. TEE SENATE ON ITS DIGNITY.
The spectacle of the Senate of the United
States standing on its dignity, which is now
being presented to an admiring world, is en
tertaining but not edifying. The dignity of
the Senate is an ideal quality, and it is
scarcely sufficiently substantial for the grave
and reverend members of the "upper house"
to stand upon very long at any one time
without danger of making themselves and
the body they be'ong to ridiculous
in the eyes of their fellow-countrymen.
Instead of discussing the important treaty
which has been submitted to their considera
tion, the Senate has employed its valuable
time in endeavoring to discover hoi? it was
the document got into the newspapers. Now,
in consideration of the fact that the Senate is
the "leakiest" public body in the country, it
is really surprising that the publication of the
treaty bhould have occasioned so muoh as
tonishment and indignation, and the attempt
to extort the secret of this publication from
the newspaper correspondents who are sup
posed to know all the ins and outs of the
matter is a piece of folly in the perpetration of
which the Senate will receive but little sym
patby from the people of the country, and
which we are glad to see that some of the
more sensible Senators are wise enough to
condemn. J udging other men by themselves,
the Senators have summoned certaiu corres
pondents to the bar of their house, and have,
by intimidation, endeavored to make them tell
from whom the treaty was obtained. The corres
pondents, however, know how to keep a seoret
even of Senators do not; and on the broai
principle that they are not undar obligations
to keep the secrets of the Government, and
that the manner of the publication of the
treaty is none of the Senate's business, they
hav declined to g ve any information except
that the document was not obtained from a
Senator or from any employe of the Senate.
Senator Carpenter, who has more curiosity
than good sense, yesterdiy made a silly
speech when the corresponded of tho Ti i
,$une were arraigned at the bar of the
j u win an ne is a mo:u-
ia which he
ridicnleus comparison between the news
papers and the Ku-klux. Doubtless Mr. Car
penter thought he was making a very bril
liant oratorical point when he said this, bat
we can imagine no other effect for his speech
than to make the people of the country set
down Carpenter for a fool and for his Sena
torial brethren to hang their heads with
shame that such, absurd utterances on suoh a
subject should be made in their chamber by
one of their number. The Tribune has
thrown down its "defi" to the Senate, by an
nouncing that its correspondents will not dis
close the secret in their possession, and that
in ever t of their imprisonment their salaries
will bo doubled during the period of their
confinement, and their places filled by
equally active and enterprising men. It is
easy to nnderstand that there can be but one
result for such a contest as this the Senate
will certainly come off second best. It may
imprison the correspondents until the end of
tfce session, but it is not at all probable that
it will extort their secret from them. The
fact is that this business of investigations by
Congressional committees has been played
out long ago. The publio at large
have no sympathy with them
whatever, and the present proceeding
is simply what more than one Senator has
pronounced it to be a farce, in which Mr.
Carpenter and a few others are playing the
low comedy parts for the entertainment of
the public at large. If the Senate has any
real respect for its dignity it will put a stop to
the present performance immediately, and be
fore it is too late to recede from the contest it
has invited, without being obliged to acknow
ledge s damaging defeat.

Colouel Robert B. Heath, tlic Republican
Candidate
We published yesterday a sketch of Dr.
David Stanton, who has received the Republican
nomination for Auditor-General. Colone(
Robert B. Bcath, who was nominated for Sur.
veyor-General by a vote of 87 to 40 for Samuel
L. Smedley, of this city, was born in thU city
January 29, 1839. He is of Scotch parentage.
lie commenced life as an apprentice in the
Southwark foundry of Messrs. Merrick & Sons,
and graduated from that establishment . ns a
fkilful and competent machinist. On the 20th
of April, 1801, he enlisted as a private in Com
pany G", 23d Pennsylvania Regiment, and atter
three meoths service he was mustered out as a
sergeant. On the 5th of September, 1 831, he
joined Company D, 88th Regiment Pennsylvania
Volunteers, and was made sergeant, and in that
capacity served until December 18, 1802, when
he was promoted to second lieutenant. At the
second battle of Bull Run he was wounded in
the foot, lie was promoted to captain in Au
gust, 1803, and was placed In command of Com
pany A, 6th Regiment United States Colored
Troops, and he served with this regiment and
company throughout the campaign before Pe
tersburg and on the James river. On the 29th
of September, 18(54, he was again wounded in
the foot in a charge on the Rebel works at Ne w
Market or Cuapin's Farm, end an amputation
of tne right leg below the knee was rendered
necessary. So soon as he was able to leave the
hospital, he was assigned to duty at Camp Wil
liam Ptnn, near Philadelphia. In August, 1805,
be returned to bis regiment, and was placed iu
charge of the counties of Hanover and Bruns
wick, forming the sub-District of Wilmington,
under the Freedmen's Bureau. In this position
he remained until September 20, 1805, when he
was mustered out with his regiment, with the
ranK of lieutenant-colonel. In 1800 Colonel
Beath was a candidate for Common Council on
the Republican ticket in the Third ward, and
was defeated. General Bingham afterwards
appointed h lm sub-postmaster at Station D, at
Second atd Master streets. This position he
left in July, 1807, to become a book-keeper iu
one of the largest collieries of Schuylkill
county.
OBIT CAR Y.
Madame Pauline Vlardot-Gareta.
The recent death at Turiu of the distinguished
prima donna Madame Pauline Vlardot-Garcla,
is announced. She was the sister of Malibran,
and daughter of the eminent operatic artist and
teacher Manuel Garcia, and was born In Paris in
1821. When quite a little child she came to this
country with her father, who carefully culti
vated the talents she displayed at an early age.
When seven years old she was a skilful pianist, aud
in her sixteenth year she began to obtain cele
brity as a vocalist, her voice having been trained
by her mother. In 1839 fclie made her debut on
the operatic stage in Rossini's Otello, and after
singing with success in Vienna, Berlin, and St.
Petersburg, she went to London, where she
speedily became a favorite. In the last-named
city or in Paris most of the subsequent years of
her life were spent. Madame Via'dot-Garcla
was a very versatile singer, and the
wide range of her voice, which
covered both the soprano and contralto
registers, enabled her to assume. a great number
of very different parts. She wa9 an artist of
the grand school, and her best part was that of
"Fides" In Meyerbeer's J'rophdc. In this she
had no rival. Among her other most cele
brated roles were "Norma," 'Donna Anna" in
Don Giovanni, and "Valentino" iu The Hu
guenots. She bad a particular partiality
for the operas of Gluck, and was considered
their best Interpreter upon the modern
stage. For some seasons past Madams Viardot
Garcia resided at Baden Baden, where she gave
musical soirees, 'which were attended by the
most distinguished visitors .to that watering
place. At tbeFe reunions several other ova
compositions were successfully produced. Siie
has also recently sung iu concerts in London.
