WE publish elsewhere in the An-, t.t - s the renomination platform of the Republican Convention which convened at Philadelphia on the sth awl tlth daps of June, and side by side with it the platform adopted by the Reform Itepublimn Convention which assembled at Cincinnati on the Ist, '2,(1 and 3d days of May. Jt will be seen that theirrinciples enun ciated by bath are almost Wendt-Al, save and except that the Cincinnati 'on vent ion hits declared itself oppl&:- cd to the re•election of a President, and has thus set its seal of mntletn nation upon the Presidential nractiee oC usitur, 11w offices and °dicers under 111. eontrot 14 foree his own ro-noni rjnal ion. If, therefore the principle!: of the two Parties are the same, or nearly,slike, as to he distinguish able only by name, the struggle will not he about Ntea..-2/ but men, a fuel which youthful political svouters arid, long-woait.ti editorial writers should hoar in wind. CEOS Till: Temperance eim‘'ention this State met in Altoona 911 Friday last and ad,opted a platform which indorsed the action of the Convention of the 9th of August 1s71; second af t*fus the proceedings of the Natienal Prohibition party at Columbus,Oltio, ''2Al Febuary 1572; third declares the tratic in liquor as a beverage injuri ous to the best interests of society and demands its suppreion by law; fourth, resolves against the great danger arising from the competition of the ruling parties for the liquor votC;tlft h. pledges the adoption of po litic l measures, but not at the sacri fice of mot - id - means; sixth invitee all citizens to join in the efreirt to rescue the State from the dominion 'of in temperance. The remaining resolu tions recognize the duty of protecting American industry justice to women as voters and equality of tuber with capital and express continued reli ance on the blessing of Almighty God. The following nominations were made for Governor: S. B. Chase, of Susquehanna county : Supreme Judge, Joseph Henderson, of 'Wash ington county;Auditor tieneral,ltar'r Spangler, of Lancaster county; con gristnen-at-Large, Col. tieorge F. McFarland, A. J.

Yerkes, broker of Phila delphia, during the g reat " ( lbw: 4 e meat trial in that city a few nupithE ago: p A to John F. llartranft various ro amounts of money from stock Epeculstions with money devositmi with this deponent try the State Treasurer at the instinct of said Hartrank" "I paid to John F. Hantranft the sum of two thousand seven hundred dollars, which sow was derive," from profits on purchase, of hians of the same to the Sinking Fund, which sale was made on the '.:9th of April 1570:' Persons who are inclined to support a man' for the Governorship of the State, who is thus show:. to have been gambling with its stocks, and plundering its people while filling the Mike of Auditor General, may do so, but tee cannot find it consistent with duty to aid in his election. THE interested parties who are just now denouncing every person hereabouts who expresses a partiali ty fort .ireeley and reform ,are perhaps not consciops of the fact that the New York Tribune, ((freeley is nut its ed itor now) the Springfield (Mass.) Republican, the Detroit Tribune, the Chicago Tribune,the Cincinnati Coni merciul, and fit. Louis Republican, are all supporting Greeley and Brown and advoeating their election with unbounded zeal. These are the lead ing Republican papers in the Uni ted States, and that they have dnne more to - build up the Republin,in party than all the other newspapers combined, is a well nuthentimted fact. Add to these, Senators Sum ner, 'Schurz, Fenton, Tipton, Trum bull, and - ir score or more of Repre sentatives in Congress—the founders ()rand for years the wheel-hors of the Republican party—all of whom are in the Cincinnati movement-and earnestly supporting its nominees. and we have the evidence before us of a ground-swell.in favor of r,iforin that will not be whistled down. To-DAY, June 18th. the Legisla ture of New Hampshire will vote for a U. S. Senator for the term com mencing March 4th, 1873. The Re publicans have a very large majority in both Houses of the Legislature, and consequently their candidate will be elected. A . great struggle, how ever is going on within the party lines between the friends of James W. Patterson, the present Senator, and three of ;Edward M.

There were three elements of oppo sttion —the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury with two or three treasury clerks, the latent device men and inspectors, oil the floor of the Senate Conkiing was the only opposing c•le ment in the way of the bill that amounted to anything, and he suc cessfully held the bill off and .flnally threw it over. Tit ERE was (Innen Hurry of words of denunciation and vulgarity in the I'. S.

Bingham repeated and Morgan retorted in stronger terms.— Meantime the Speaker was pounding with all his might, members were calling order and asking the Speaker to make arrests, and ,genera Ily speak ing, there mas bedlam let hx)se on the floor. Finally, both sides called for the words of Iting,hum and Mor gan to be taken- down, and while these were being written ont, order was restored. The bill could not be forced through.

A good many people just now are making up their minds that the Radical unwittingly uttered the truth when it alleged that this "Is the last contest that will be made by the Republican party under Its ex isting organization," and a majority of-these show a disinclination to be led along any further by the Radi cal crowd, merely that the latter way enjoy fat ott while the new deal in parties is ta - Mg place.

The correspondence between C. W, Woolvy and August Belmont is pub lished, in which the lust named gen tleman expresses himself as follows: "1 take it for grunted that all think ing, men have mine to the conclusion" by titne , that the.nominationof a straight Democratic ticket at Balti more will either elects Grant by the people,in ease of Greeley's withdraw al, or throw the election into- the House if Greeley should stand, and then, also, Grant will be sure to be eleeted. if the Convention can be gut to nominatetireeley at Baltimore with anything like unanituitylt he large body of the thoeratic party throughout the country will vote for him. and we shall have enough Re publican votes to make the election more t hen probable,even If we should lose one-tenth of our votes by defec tion and apathy. Whether this nom ination can be brought about remains a serious question, and I am not able to form u Judgment on this point at this early day. At • present many kurijvc-v rusrgd portion of the Ger- Man vote, are bitterly opposed to him. Between rikuiii and the 9th of July Oreeley's strength must show an increase or decline, and it will then be for our Convention to adopt what course may be the wisest.— Though he is to nie the most objec tionable person whom the Libefais could select, still I am decidedly of the opinion that our hest policy will he to indorse the Cincinnati 1 I itforni and ticket. This is the general feel ing in this State, anti our delegation to Baltimore is, by a large majority, composed of Greeley men. As our delegation votes as a unit, you may set the vote of New York down at most certain for Greeley. I was not at Rochester and have been left off the list of delegates,tnost probably on account of the hoati le position of the I Vorld and Senats Zeitung against the Cincinnati nominees, as the delega-• tion undoubtedly was selected with but that one idea of making It sure for Greeley. A most absurd story has for years past been started, and general ly credited, that I am a large share hoider in the World and control its tendencies. I have never held a single share in it, and do not exercise any influence over its editorials. Should circumstances shape themselves so that the Liberals desert the Cin cinnati ticket, then I hope that the choice may fall on Groesbeck. lie, with Sanford Church or J. Q,. Ad ams, would make a stronger ticket than any other combination. Yours, very truly, . AuGusT BELMONT. . ...- TERRIBLE DISASTER. Falling of a Blast Furnace at West thnshohocken— Fifteen Workmen Buried in the Ruins—Se' ren Taken (Jul Dead thus Itir —Great . Excite ment in the Vicinity—List of those Known to be Killed—Probably a l'earful Loss of Life. The Philadelphia Imitarer of Fri day says: A frightful disaster, which has resdlted in the loss of seven lives and probably more, occorrt. • _ ter,- day afternoon at Consholmakik a borough situated on the river Schk : kill, on the line of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad. The place is situated in the midst of a region of blast furnaces, and iron working is carried on to a large ex tent. The disastrous event to which we have referred occurred about ten minutes before two, o'clock. It appears that a new engine house was being eonstructed at Moorhead's blast furn:.ce and that it fell from an over pressure of weight on the lead ing arch, burying beneath the ruins a largo number of workmen who were employed in erecting the struct u re. The alarm was quickly given and spread like wildfire throughout the entire neighborhood. A large num ber of people from the vicinity rushed to the snot, and a scene of great con fusion and excitement ensued. Ef forts were promptly made to rescue thee, if any who were alive, from the tetrible mass of ruins In which they wen. entromhed. The scene was heartrending in the extreme wives, children, families and friends of the unfortunate men gath erol about the place, and frantic ap peals for help for the victimsmingled with their grnacs and cries of pain. Meanwhile strong and ready hands tame to the rescue with pick and shovel. Soon the lifeless body of Matthew 'Mclklerlsey was exhumed, and all the afternoon people labored on, and when tired were relieved by others, anxious to proceed with the work and render every assistance possible. Before nightfall several more lifeless bodies were taken out. The mangled corpses presented a frightful spectacle, and the air was rent with the moans of families and relatives of the poor laborers. Up to half past ten o'clock last night se‘en more bodies have been recovered. The engineer ch the train which arrived last night, about a quarter to tw4ve o'clock, described the scene as rible in the extreme at the time ke left the station, near the scene of thi) terrible catastrophe. The followibg are the names or the victims who llati been taken out life less up to twpive o'clock: Matthew McMertissey6 John Kelley, John Dunn, John lowers and two brothers by the nameV Deveney. The two following, wifp live in Conshohock en, were foe nA badly wounded: John Ramsey and, Demersey. M. Davis, V. C.

II McD:mald, under the command of Wall Bigelow, passed hereabout four o'clock p. tn. yester day, and when mmrlyipposite North M cGregor her boiler exploded and blew all above the boiler deck into fragments. The hod immediately sunk in about sixteen feet of water. The Olawaka, transfer boat between Prarie Du Chien and McGregor, for tunately was at the landing at North McGregor, and immediately went to the assistance 01 the sullerers, and picked up eight of the crew, live of whom Deere n4.riously woo tided, and two ut them have so.ce died. It is not definitely I:nown how many were on board at the time of the ac cident, anti it is impossible to ascer tain at present, as the Caudal!' and owner of the bout remained in St. Lou is. As near as can tie ascertained, from the stories of those saved, there niust have been between twenty-nine and thirty-five. The following is a lint of all heard of: Jack Kelly, killed; Daniel lioagliy, of Li Crosse, fatally injured. since died; Harrison, La Crumse, badly hurt; Charles Peterson, La Crosse, badly; hit.

CHICAGO,June 15.—A special from McGregor, low in relation to the explosion of the h 1). 11. Mc- Donald, says the see . the boat after the ex ploshbn was terrible. The dead and dying were strewn promiscuously over the unsighty wreck of the ruined boat. Some of the dead were frightfully mangled, their clothes and &f ill having been torn to shreds by the swift winged missiles. Many of the dead and wounded lay under heavy timber, their hones broken and presenting a sight sufficiently ghastly to appal even those wheare used to scenes of violence and blood shed. Many of the .wounded are so badly mangled that it is an impossibility for them to survive. { . air' he Philadelphia Press, of June he 4th, contained the follow ing f reible paragraph : • " e newspaper of t.o-day is a very difflen t creation from the newspaper of twenty years ago.
