Wilkbsbabbb, August 37.—'The Demo* cratlc State Contention met la the Coart room in this place, and was called to order by Samuel J. Randall, Chairman of the State Central Committee. Dr. Andrew Nebinger was unanimously elected temporary chairman, with K. Gray Meek, of Centre, B. Brock, way, of Columbia, and A. Fletcher, of Philadel phia, temporary Secretaries. Dr. Nebinger, in a short address selled harmony. Od the question of .the adoption order of business as presented by Wright and amended by C. W. Co: a debate of over an -boar took place point In dispate being the mann which the contested seat from Philad eiioard^^pos^J?f. The dele t from that city claimed tint tbejr’il be allowed to settle each matters amn themselves, but it was finally voted that a committee of one from each Senatorial district be appointed on contested seats. Tbe Convention then took a recess until half-past two, awaiting the action of tbe Committee on Contested Seats. The seats of all the Allegheny delegates are contested, also that of Sam Joseph 9, of Philadelphia. The Convention reassembled at 2:80. The Committee on Contested Seats re ported Samuel Josephs entitled to repre sent tbe Third Legislative district, Dongberty the Fifth and Kendall tbe Second. They admitted both delegations from Allegheny, each delegation to have five votes. These delegates then named three of their number to represent them on the Committee on Permanent Organi zation, and pending tbe. action of that Committee the Convention took another recess till 3:30. At four o’clock the committee being ready to report, the Convention was called to order, and the Chairman of the. committee, Colonel Robert Decherl, read tbe name of Hoo. R. Milton Spear, for j permanent Chairman. { At this point A. H. Slate, of York, in- i terrupted, and moved the non-concur- ■ rence of tbe Convention in the report of | tbe committee so far as read, giving as bis j reason that Speer had, as a Member of Congress,taken “back pay." The motion ! and remarks of Mr. Slatz were with great applause by a majority of the | Convention. 1 Mr. Speer replied, defending his actions as a public man, pleading his services and fealty to the Democratic party, and ask ing the Convention not to give way to the personal clamor of the hour. He stated that he bad hot sought the honor of presiding oyer the Convention, but now that the committee had presented his name, he hoped he would not be stabbed in the house of his friends. R. E. Manahan and W. D. Moore supported the motion of Slatz, and denounced the salary grab in severe terms. C. W. Corrigan, and J. Lawrence Getz spoke in behalf of Speer, The latter gen tleman upheld the back pay bill and was hissed from the floor. The sense of the Convention was almost unanimously aganist Speer being permanent Chair man. He was wise enough to see this and in a short speech withdrew his name and moved that the name of Dr. Andrew Nebinger be substituted. This was carried and the Committee reported a list of Vice Presidents including one from each district and a number of Secretaries. , of Wm. P. ftyan and were withdrawn, and second ballot Hutchinson Latter, 28; and Perks 38. TWbdmlnalion of F. M.

The Rebel General Mo*bjr’» Change of Base—lmproremeut* of the Public Building*—The Capitol and Build ings of*the Department*—Dearth of New*. Correspondence of the Radical. Washington, D. C., Sept. 1, 1873. General Mosby, the noted guerilla who gave so much trouble during the war and earned great fame as the boldest of robbers, has recently come into prominence again. After the close’of the war be settled dowh quietly in bis own village of Warrenton, Virginia, to the practice of law, and for some years he was notlheard of a hundred miles from his home. Last year he came out in sup* port of President Grant and thereby won a good many encomiums from Republican writers and a considerable amount of abuse''from the opposition press and slump. If reports be Correct be received his reward for the services supposed to have been rendered in the last Presidential campaign, as a number , of appointments of Virginians to federal I offices are very generally credited to his ; influence. He has made himself even i more famous than ever before by bis j proposition to support President Grant j for a third term. All the talk we have j recently heard about Cteserism has grown I out of remarks dropped by the guerilla chief some months since, and there can be no doubt that this is where the New York Herald got its cue. Had it not been for bis suggestion of a third term it is doubtful if the question would have been [ agitated at all, and it is quite certain the discussion would uot have been raised to the white heat at which we now And it. But the redoubtable genius is not con tent with bis past aebivemeuts and pres ent notoriety. Since the nominations recently made in his native State by the regular Republican and Conservative parties respectfully be has come out ip then proceeded to . forjudge of Supreme Ludlow, of Pbiladcl mp*on, of PhUidel ,of Cumberland, Wm. d*l' Henry P. Ross, of Barrett* of Clearfield, nomination. The first follows: Ladlow, 26; raham, 18; El well, 29; 11. The names of Barrett- were with* [lot stood: Lad* 20; sod Thomp >alt was annoanc* chaagiog their nomination was Allegheny, Fred- Waf. Willia, of Joseph iptbd, and Wm. ire in nomination. ii080n,43; Lauer, 85; Danbacb, U; resolution was longer tamely election (rands >ple expressed fat the advocacy of the election of the Con* servative candidates. The tone of the papers on both sides is no w changed. Reid Republican papers of to-day and of a year ago and yon will readily note the. change. So with the Democratic papers. While he has lowered himself Immeasura bly in Republican estimation. In Demo* cratic eyes he is again a hero. The most ridiculous feature about the case, however, is the complaint now be* Ing made by certain Republican Journals that Mosby has acted in bad faith. For decency's sake, let him go and bid him Godspeed. I fancy all such as he are Bet ter enemies than friends. But listen to the National BepuUiean, published in this city, and by some supposed to be a sort of an administration organ. (The reason for such a supposition I could never dis cover, but all the papers here get that credit.) It says: “Uosby stands to-day in default regarding certain promises made by him when he was seeking ap pointments for bis personal friends." The Republican should ndt talk so in whispers. It ought to inform the public as to the nature of these promises, and it ought to tell os who the persons were to whom they were made. This is all the sheerest nonsense. In the first place I am not ready to believe that any appointments were made on the strength of promises of support from Mosby. And if such were the case I would not certainly go to whin ing because ho had broken them. If President Grant or any Cabinet officer was so foolish as to allow himself to be humbugged bj the promise of this man all I have to say is “good for him." A stroll about the city tarnishes one with some idea of the amount of work that is being done to improve and enlarge the buildings occupied by the executive and legislative branches of the govern ment. 1 Always first in importance comes that magnificent and massive pile, the Capitol, surmounted by the great dome. Each year more or less work is done on it to better adapt It to the purposes for which it was intended. During the pres ent season a large number of workmen have been employed in re arranging the coal vaults and in improving tbe fentilat ing apparatus* The ventilation of the Capitol h» always been defective, and TOy wao mty besaidnf all the Other public buildings. In the case~oTtse Cag= itol it has been the source of a good deal of trouble to the architect, Mr. <«l>trbe, and many are the plans that hath been suggested, some of wbich have been tried and some refected as impracticable. The new building for the Stale, War and Navy Departments is constantly as suming more definite proportions. The south wing will be enclosed this fall, but it will be several years before the entire building will be completed! When fin ished it will be one of the finest and moat imposing of all the public buildings. The outside walls are being constructed of granite. The architectural design is per. feet and the workmanship of the best character. Each stone is dressed to its proper shape at the quarries and then shipped here. The sound of the hammer or chisel is not heard about the grounds at all. The>Treasury building will need reno vating shortly. The old building (that fronting on Fifteenth street) was con structedsOf'sandstone and is already be- crumble away. The north, south and west fronts, however, are built of granite as enduring as the hills. This building contains the largest hewn stone in the world, not excepting the pyramids of Egypt. The walls are constructed of blocks thirty-four feet four inches da height, extending from the floor of the first story to the ceiling of the third story, and five feet square. The columns are of the same dimensions, but round and fluted. All the departments are cramped for room. &.bout one third of the force of the Treasury Department is quartered in rented buildings in different parts of the city. In the Interior Department the Pension office has been crowded out and now occup'es the old Seaton House. The Bureau of Education is quartered in a rented building. The increasing business of the Post Office Dapartment mikes more room necessary, and a proposition to add another story to the building is being discussed. It has been suggested that the present Post Office buil ling be turned over to the Interior Department and that a new and larger one be erected for the Post Office Department. The White House is one of the shabbi est of the public buildings, but by con stant repainting, replastering and patch ing it is made to look pretty decent.. It would perhaps be well to "erect a new building in a difierent locality for the residence of the President and fit up"the present: edifice for the executive office solely, tinder the present arrangement there is no each thing as privacy for the family of the President. The government is out of Dar ing & part of the last week there was bat one member of the cabinet in the city. The reader will not blame me, therefore, for the dearth of news. Absolutely noth* log bat tße merest roatine work lias been transacted. As we remarked by the cor respondent of one of the leading Journals the other day, “the news we get is secarce ly worth the ink we ose in writing Ik” A rumor is in circulation that the President will return from the sea-side with bur family in a couple of weeks to remain during the rest of the season. As the heated term is about at an end and as folks are returning from their summer va cations we expect better things soon, but in the matters of news no place can be worse than Washington just now. Reduction of the State Debt la all badness transactions, a man is estimated and rained by the resalts be accomplishes, not by whats is alleged against him or declared in bis favor. Yon can abase an official every day in the year, and still not effect bis reputation, while he lays before the people, at stated periods, the evidence of his faithfal per* formance of duty; and yon may praise another mao, and the public will torn a deaf ear Jto the fulsome endorsement, as long as he fails to present results of a practical character to show that his ser vices are worthy of commendation. We are lead to these reflections, as we study-* the statements of the Commissioners the reduction of the State debt dur|)||f July 1873, was $209,850. This is a amount, but when we go back for a few years, bring up the several periodical re ductions, and then aggregate them, we find that in the three years Mr. Mackey was State Treasurer the debt has been re duced $4,948,253,13. Now, it is not mere ly wiping out so much indebtedness, but it is escaping the semi-annual payment of large amounts of interest, itself a grievous harden to the tax payer. The public ser vantwboacoompllahcssuch results !® of tbeT gratitude of tbepeo pie, andthe^To?^Wpow«sthpl^ni^; to the dfflcer who ha* done all this, as being eminently worthy of each credit. The State Treasurer is the officer thus en titled to credit. Mr. K. W. Mackey baa never for sn boar or a day neglected the performance of bis duty as the custodian of the public funds and the guardian of the public credit. His management of our finances has been a success in every particular, as is amply proveu by results like those tfhich are presented in the debt reduction of his administration. Our se curities were never nearer par than while be bad charge of our finances, and our credit never better. It is a pleasure to point to these facts, because they illustrate the integrity of Republicanism, and vindicate thefaithtul ness of Republican rulers. Mr. Mackey in this is a representative man of his par ty. He makes good its faith by bis acts, and as such is deserving the continued support of the tax payers, who are profit ted by his faithfulness. —State Journal. —A special from Ebensburg to the Johnstown Tribune gives this account of the doings of the Republican County Convention of Cambria: The Republican County Convention was called to order at two o'clock ibis afternoon. A. M. Gregg was chosen President, and H. H. Kuhn and Alvin Evans,Secretaries. Eve ry district in the county was represented. Hon. Samuel Henry was nominated for Assembly by acclamation.
