If oar friends in the Eastern part of the State, who are complain ing because the Republican Candi- for Supreme Judge was not ta ken from that section of the State, will only wait a few months, there is little doubt their section will be fully represented on the Supreme Bench. The new constitution will provide for an increase of two addi tional judges on the Supreme Court. Should the constitution not be adopted, there is no doubt the Leg islature will pass an act early in the session increasing the number to seven. The necessity for this was recognized by the Legislature at the last session, and the bill after pass ing both Houses was only defeated the day before adjournment by a disagreement between the two Houses, as to the mode of their election. In any event then there will be two additional judges to se lect, and the eastern part of the State will in all probability secure both, provided Republicans in that section do their duty at the election in October. The friends of Judge Paxson and Judge Butler would do well to cease their complaints, give a hearty support to Judge Gordon, and bide their time ? Some of Judge Butler’s professed friends are indiscreet in their criticisms on the action of the Convention, and are damaging his chances for the future, And it is barely possible this is the result aimed at. Judge But ler owes his defeat partly, if not largely, to the indiscreet conduct and language of one of his delegates selected by himself, against the ad vice of his true friends, and he should endeavor to prevent the same so called friend prejudicing his fu ture prospects. It those he trusts at home do not betray him or de stroy him by conduct equally as rep rehensible, there is no doubt that Judge Butler will occupy a seat upon the Supreme Bench within the next twelve months, because no man can command more strength in Western Pennsylvania in the next contest. Philadelphia Republicans need no warning, because they are always loyal, and this fact wilflin sure the nomination of any good candidate presented by that city in the event of this increase of Su preme Judges. THE EXODUS FBOIW ENGLAND. England is becoming alarmed at the immense increase in the tide of emigration from her shores. The Queensland Government offer ed a free passage to 10,000 laborers and other advantages on their arri val, and the offer will soon, it is fear ed, be accepted. The United States are continually being reinforced by English and Irish workingmen, to whom they bold out superior attrac tions. In Dorset, where 1,000 adults have left, and other places, the scarcity of laborers is already felt, and the effect upon business is -easily noticed. The population of Ireland is diminished and still di minishing, and papers are wow anxiously enquiring: when this exodus shall stop? It is caused by - the many superior attractions of this and other countries. So long as the workingman can elsewhere earn high ' wages and rise easier in the social s:ale to positions of influence and honor, emigration will continue. Aud so long as wealth, indepen- deuce and. power are more easily ac- i qnired in other countries, no govermental restriction can stop the exodus in those countries where labor Is enslaved and the workingman has an inferior opportu nity to improve,his condition.-' The English land system is cruel and un just, and when compared to the free homes that can easily be acquired in this country, the contrast is strik ing, and the inducement to emigrate is strong. There is a profound dis affection among the Irish poor,to re move which it will require the pass age of a more radical Irish land act than has yet been even sug gested. There are a number of causes operating to produce " a diminished population in Great Britain, bat the chief cause is the unjust system of laws that re strict the freedom, happiness and prosperity of the poor class, togeth er with the knowledge widely diffus ed, that other parts of the world, especially this country, afford far • better Opportunities /or the work ingman to get on in the struggle of life and to rise in the social scale, and so long as this condition of things is not reversed, England will be subjected to an annual loss of her population. Many indications encourage the hope that America is destined to be the great theatre of progress for tne English speaking race. When the balance of trade turns in our favor, and our currency is again placed firmly on a specie basis, the progress that will follow will not only be rapid, but will leave England far in the rear. THE LAST ACT OF THE HODOC The public is, no doubt, “sick and tired” of this Modoc affair. But one more scene remains to be enact* ed and the drama will be ended. That which was so interesting at first has now become stale and sip id, and tie readers of the newspa- pers will be heartily glad when the last chapter shall have been written and the book forever closed. On Friday last President Grant approved the sentences in the oases of Captain Jack, Schonchis, Black Jim, Boston Charley, One-eyed Jim and Sloluck, and ordered that they be harried into execution by the proper military authority, under the orders of the Secretary of War, on the 3d day of October, 1878. The sentence of each is that he be “hanged by the neck until he be dead.” Secretary Belknap has or dered that the “sentences be duly executed under the direction of the general commanding the Depart ment of the Columbia, at Fort Klamath, Oregon,” on tbe day des ignated by the President. And so will end the career of five desperate and wicked savages. This will receive the general ap proval of the community. One can only vqish that the white men who taught?them their fiendish perfidy could be made to participate in like manner with them in the last scene. The President has received a great many appeals from members of the Society of Friends, pleading for executive clemency Mo docs. As the proceedings seemed to be, in the opinion ot the Attor ney General, his legal adviser, in every respect regular and according to the laws made and provided; as they were carefully reviewed by the Judge Advocate General, and as the President was unable to discover any palliating circumstances, he determined not to interfere. This firm and prompt disposition of the case cannot, of course, be construed into an abandonment of the President's past Indian policy. It is rather a part of his general policy in the treatment of the In dianfl, and the “exterminators” can claim no victory in his action in this case. The Democratic State Conven tion met in Wilkesharre on Tuesday, to nominate a State ticket, and to adopt a platform with which to go before the people. We have not yet, (Wednesday,) ascertained the result of the Convention, but the telegraphic reports seem to fore shadow a lively struggle over the back pay question. The Conven tion is in a delicate position in re gard to this back pay, for if it de nounces It, it will be compelled to repudiate many of its trusted lead ers, and to Censure some of its DBiini. , , .’.Si- ’ THE RADIO most prominent members. Wheth er the delegate** will be able to come np to the work and obey, the voice of the people which rent them, is now uncertain. Whichever way the matter is decided, the revolt will be about the. same to the party,, for if the measure is unmistakably con demned in the platform adopted, the implied censure to. Randall and oth ers,prominent in Democratic'circles, must tend to weaken confidence in a party of such greedy followers as well as diminish its strength by the necessity of shelving those Democratic members of Congress whose pockets are lined with back pay;but if the subject is passed over in silence the masses will not turn hopefully to the Democratic party for reform, retrenchment or reduction of taxation. The con vention cannot afford to keep silent on this subject, when even to be out-spoken against it will not give harmony or additional strength to the party. We expect that some compromise on this back pay matter will be patched np and a resolution that looks both ways will be adopt ed as expressing the sense of the convention. There are several can didates before the convention for the two offices to be filled, but who are to be the successful candidates is not known at this writing. The Chinese shoe makers eaehnsetts have gone on a strike, having received the impression that their wages were too low, and that their employers were making more money from their cheap work than was consistent with a fair and equal distribution of the rewards of labor The Chinese are apt'imitators, and will be quick to take advantage of the system ot strikes, if they can do so successfully. The only in ducement to employ them now is because their wages are low, and as soon as they demand equal wages with other workingmen, it will go far towards discouraging their em ployment or removing complaint against them on -account of cheap labor. departure for Europe we stated that we had good grounds for stating that the gentleman would not accept the f 2,000 voted him to pay his expenses as one of the Commissioners of the State'to the Vi enna Exposition.

The organization is not a very bulky affair, so far as heard from and consists exclusively of a President, a Sec retary and a manuscript of by-laws. —The Cincinnati Gazette says: We should like to know what the tariff for revenue, and not for protection, in the Democratic platform means. Any rate of duty laid on an article such as we manufacture gives that rate of protection. Tbe duties on tea and coffee, which yield revenue without protection, we threw off last year. Does the antediluvian Democ racy mean to restore them ? If not, what does its tariff plank mean i —The IJemocracy of Montour county assembled together on the 18th inst., and nominated the following ticket: Asso ciate Judge—Dr. R. S.

Resolutions were offered favoring economy of administra tion. —A Brookville correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, writing on Wednes day last, says: This town is all a blaze of excitement oyer the nomination of Hon. Isaac G. Gordon for the Supreme Court. As soon as the Telegraph an nounced the result the citizens, without distinction of party, formed in procession. and proceeded to the Juge’s residence to tender to him their heartfelt congratula- tions. The Judge, a good old presbyteri an, was at bis church prayer-meeting, from which he was hurried to bis home to receive tbe congratulations of his fel low-townspeople, who filled the honse. Telegraph messages from many of his friends throughout tbe State were receiv- ed, all of which assure us that no effort will be spared to make tbe Judge’s “call ing and election” sure. This nomination has been based upon simple merit and capability, and was effected, as all^pure nominations should be, "without money and without price.” —The St. Louis Times is wicked enough to pun on the name of Pugb, and to sug gest that the Hon. George E. is about to contribute to the pngh rity of the Democratic party by withdrawing from it. Mr. Pogh is truly unfortunate. At that period of the war time when Mr. Vallandigham was engag ed in contemplating the beauties of Niag- ara Falls from tbe Canadian shore, be, ! i’ugh, announced that be would place himself at the bead of 300,000 citizens of Ohio, and, matching to the frontier, would call out three times, "Vallandig mm, Vallandigdam, Vallandigham,” and all the force of this elegant promise was wasted when an irreverent listener in the crowd suggested the effect that would be produced by Vallandigham calling out, "Pugh ! Pugh! Pugh!” It is sinful to take advantage of a man’s qaisfortune * D that way, but Mr. Pugh should change, either bis name or bis ways. —A national convention of the miners and laborers of tbe United States will be held in the city of Youngstown, Ohio, on the second Tuesday of October, next. Tbe call says: The specific objects sought to be accomplished by the formation of such an. association are as follows: 1. A consolidation of the entire body of miners of tbe United States, for the pnrpose of self-protection. 2. To afford pecuniary and moral sup port to such districts as may be forced to tbe alternative of a strike. 3. For a thorough discussion of our grievances, and the passage of such laws as our safety and welfare demand in tbe several States. / Fellow workmen —one word in conclu sion. Let every miner and laborer who reads this call realize that it is in bis in terest that it is issued. Act as though success depended on your individual ef forts. ' Make a beginning. Where no un ion exists, form one without delay. Take steps ,to meet your fellow-workmen in council. Let the men of Pennsylvania meet tne miners from Illinois. Let min ers of Ohio, Virginia, Indiana, lowa, Missouri, Kentucky and Michigan—in short fromjilvery locality where mining is carried on, "Gome and reason together” form an organization in which brother will be pledged to brother—an organiza tion will form a bulwark alike in tbe day of prosperity and the hour of adversity. Will you do so, or do you prefer to occu py your present unenviable position ? The answer and the issue are in your own hands.

Nesotad, That we denounce corruption and dishonesty of all sbadea and descrip* Uons, that until honesty, and good foitb is once more established among ourselves, there can be no security for tbe preserve- tion of our rights; , that it is the duty o|f all good citizens to use their efforts to de feat all dishonest and incompetent aspi rants to office, and to elevate none but honest and worthy men to places of pub lic trust; a ifejofoed.

He e»t3 and sleeps as well as he ever did, wearh no patch on bis eye, shows no sign of physical disorder except a slight curve at the right corner of the mouth He says he feels no weakness in bis side or and his walk is as elastic and easy as be fore bis affiction. It was a paralysis of the facial nerve, and ndt much else, exr cept that bis whole system was over worked and run down, and needed rest, that, with restricted diet and mild reme dies, is fast setting him up.
