REPUBLICAP STATE TICE.E.T.
FOR GOVERNOR,
Gen. JOHN W. GEARY, Cumber'd
FOR S uPREHE JUDGE,
lIENItY W. WILLTAMS, Allegh'y
No PAPER NEXT WEEK—There
will be no paper issued from the office
of the REPUBLICAN next week, for the
reason that our foreman, journeymen,
and devil are determined to enjoy the
4th of July.
Re-nomination of Gov: Geary.;
The State Convention, which met
on the 23d last, re-nominated Gen.
JNO. W. GEARY, on the first ballot.
The Convention, also, by acclamation,
declared'Hon. HENRY W. WILLTAirs
the nominee of the party for the Su
preme Judgeship. Gov. GEARY re
ceived 122 votes on the first ballot.—
Only 11 votes being cast against him.
Gen. J. F. HARTRANFT, who was our
first choice, refused to let his name go
before the convention' His - object and
aim was to unite and not distract the
party. The people have honored him;
but higher honors await him.
Gen. GEARY has made a most ex
cellent Governor. He has greatly di
minished the taxes, and paid off more
of the Democratic State debt than any
of his predecessors. We have not
room to say more this week.
TUE Harrisburg lelegraph says.
The result is gratifying to us; that
the nomination has our cordial concur
rence ; and that the nominee will re
ceive from us a cheerful, constant and
ardent support, as doubtless he will
from every other Republican paper
and voter in the State.
The candidate we present, for the
second time, to the voters of Pennsyl
vania, for the highest office in their
gift is, fortunately, not unknown to
fame. Be has filled noway public sta
tions, and all of them.with credit. In
civil office his capacity has always
been equal to the demands of his sta
tion ; his integrity has never been
questioned ; and to the forecaste of a
statesman he has invariably added
the prudence of a sage. In a military
capacity his record has been equally
satisfactory and brilliant. In the Mex
ican campaign and throughout the
protracted struggle for the preservaN
tion of the Union, he exhibited all the
traits of a. p.cacliox and all the zeal of a
patriot. During his now nearly three
years, service as Governor of this
Stateove question ifeven his bitterest
political foes can point out a single
important official act of his to which
they can fairly and honestly except,
on any other than Mere partisan
grounds.
So faultless are the civil and milli
tary records of Governor Geary that
every Republican in the State may
point to them with pride and chal
lenge the most malevolent of his op
ponents to the closest scrutiny of his
acts.
His nomination seemed to be an act
due to his faithful discharge of duty
and demanded by the interests of the
party. Popular opinion indicated
him as the choice of the party above
all others, and in bowing to that plain
expression of the public will the Con
vention laid the foundation of a vic
tory which will secure the ascendancy
of the Republican party in Pennsyl
vania for many years.
We enter upon the campaign buoy
ed by the certainty of victory, while
our opponents,dispirited by many de
feats and divided in sentiment as to a
candidate almost beyond the possi
bility of agreement, although they
may make a desperate struggle, will
make it without a hope of success.
Victory is certain—the re election of
Geary by a majority of thousands is
assure as though it had already been
accomplished.
SOLDIERS RFarmoN.---The Soldiers
of Centre county have arranged to
hare a Reunion on Saturday,July 3d,
1869,in commemoration of the 4th.—
The .programme includes a demon—
stration at the Court House, at 2, p.
m., and a Banquet at the Brocicer
hoff House, at eight p. in. The pro
gramme at the Court House, will in
clude the usual reading of.the Decla
ration and an address—both by veter
an soldiers—to be interspersed with
songs by the Philharmonic Society,
and music by the Bellefonte Band.—
At the Banquet, a regular series of
toasts, speeches and Songs will be ad

EAL & KROH.
Tickets to Banquet, $1.50. The
public are invited to the entertain
ment, at the Court House. All sol
diers are respectfully invited to pares
ticipate in the Banquet.
We hope all the soldiers of Centre
county will unite in making this a
complete reunion, and have a gay and
festive time.
THE Chicago papers assert that iron
can be manufactured in that city at
very low rates. Lake Superior pig
iron, it is asserted, can be procured at
Chicago at $lB a ton,and Indian - 1, coal
at $2 a ton. From these facts, it is
argued, smelting furnaces should be
established in Illinois and Indiana.
The coal is reported to be free from
sulpher, and of good quality. "
The Registry Law.
Justice Sharswood; of Philadelphia,
as has already been announced, has
just made a decision in d case arising
under the Registry LaW: . As usual
with jurists, he covers a ream to say
what should be put in a page—but
therein, doubtless lies the wisdom. A
condensation of his document gives the
following points :
EDITORS
Although sitting as a single Judge at
Nisi Prius, I am undoubtedly bound to
act according to my own conviction,un
der my oath to support the Constitu•
tion ; yet upon a question of this char
acter and magnitude, I would hesitate
long before arresting the execution of
an act of the Legislature, if my decis
ion could not be immediately brought
before the Supreme Court by an ap—
peal.
Under the terms of the Constitution
any legislative act which destroys or
impairs either the freedom or the
equality of elections is - null. and void.
It is the manifest duty of the judicial
power so to construe them as to give
them value and effect as an expression
of the will of the people, made known
in the highest exorcise of their sover
eignty, and paramount,therefore to any
act or resolution of the Legislature or
any other department of the Govern
ment. •
Basing himself on the Constitution,
Judge Sherwood argues that making
ono rule for Philadelphia and another
for other places, is a violation of that
instrument; and he urges that no re
striction whatever can be placed by the
Legislature upon the exercise of the
elective franhcise. The tendency of his
argument is to leave the regulating of
franchise to the Constitution alone.and
that legislative regulations and expla
nations are mere waste of time and pa
per.
After rehearsing the particular case
(which is of slight interest outside of
Philadelphia), Judge Sharswood says
in conclusion:
On the whole, lam clearly of the
opinion thit the act of Assembly ap
proved April 17, 1869, is unconstitu
tional. I have not felt it to be my du
ty to examine particularly the provis
ions applicable to the other part of the
State. As was held last year by the
Supreme Court, in relation to the act
of April 4, 1868—because it under
takes to establish two different systems
—the entire act, at least so far as elec
tions are, concerned, except the first
clause of the fortieth section, must fall
under the same condemnatiOn. There.
may be, and appear to be, some see
tions in relation to other matters upon
which I am not called to giVe any
judgment. The forty-third section,
which repeals such other laws as are
inconsistent with the provisions of the
act, is, of course, to be construed to
mean such provisions as are constitu
tional and have the force of laws.- 2 --
"This conclusion," as was said by
Chief Justice Thompson, in Page et
al. agt. Allen et al., " leaves all the
election laws in Three which were in
tended to be superseded by the act."
Injunction awarded, upon security be
ing entered in the sum of $l,OOO.
THE folloWiug communication came
too late for insertion in last week's pa
per. We insert it simply because it is
requested by active and reliable par
ties—friends of Gov. CURTIN.
For the Republican.
[COMMUNICATED.]
MESSRS. EDITORS is often said
that wonders never cease, and this is
verrified in the last Watchman, and
the last National, one a Copperhead
sheet, the other a Radical. The Ed ,
itors of both these papers, signed,with
other citizens, a letter addressed to
Gov. Curtin, inviting him to meet his
neighbors at the Court House to re
ceive " some manifestation of their
high esteem and regard they held him
in as a citizen, Philanthropist and
statesman," before he left them on his
mission to Russia. The meeting was
held without the distinction of politi
cal parties. The Governor was ad
dressed by one of the oldest active
Democrats of the county, Mr. games
Macmanus, in very appropriate re—
marks.
You published the letter of invita
tion, and Gov. Curtin's answer, in the
REPUBLICAN in time. for the Watch
man and the .National to have insert
ed them from your paper. You also
published the pioceedings of the meet
ing in time for those antipode journals
to transfer the proceedings of the meet
ing to their columns, or to have given
the meeting a passing notice, at least,
for the information of their readers:—
But no ! Not one word has either of
these Editors said about the meeting
in their respective papers.
As respects the Watchman, it is
lifechish, and in this changeable weath
er might give trouble to procure the
consent of the "Rino"•' that directs
him in matters of this - kind. But as
respects the National, it is different,
he knows what the personal Mends of
Gov. Curtin have done for the Na
tional,, and now
they find MEEK and
KINSLOE in juxtaposition in this omis
sion. What's up? Here they act to
gether—is it to go further? The Na
tional cannot blind any body, for his
dereliction of friendship, professed, in
neglecting or refusing to notice the
proceedings at the Court House by
publishing the unauthorized and un
called-for communication signed" Lock
Haven." It was unfair to Gov. Cur
tin, at this time, and the fustian edi
torial proclamation, of having appoint
ed Minister Curtin, agent for the Na
tional in Russia, is ridiculously fiat.—
Yet it may appear in the Watchman
as a quid pro quo for the Nat/owes si
lence respecting the Court House
meeting
NVe - make the following, extracts
from a speech delivered before the
state Convention by Gov. GEARY ;
In bearing the banner you have
this day confided to me, I pledge you
that it shall be carried at the head of
the Republican column, its move
ments shall always be directed to the
sound of the heaviest firing : and,when
the conflict is over, I confidently pre
dict the banner will be placed as it
was in 1866. in triumph upon the
dome of the capitol, without spot or
blemish on its stripes., and each and
every star as bright as when its first
effulgence beamed on the cone try,and
Pennsylvania will still be as true as
when she signed "the sacred covenant
that binds the States together in the
bonds of an everlasting union."—
[Cheers.]
Sould the people again place me in
the executive chair, I. will continue to
use mybest exertions to promote every
where the peace, honor and welfare
of my native State, and to secure all
the blessings that a good government
can bestow upon a free-people. And
it shall be my pleasure to aid the Chief
Magistrate of the nation in his lauda
ble efforts to "lettis have peace," and
if necessity should require it I will aid
him to preserve our national rights
and national honor at all hazards and
every sacrifice. It shall be my special
duty to extend all the influence I may
possess to aid in procuring adequate
protection for.every branch of our do
mestic industry and productions, and
to see that exact justice shall be done
to the mechanic and the laborer, as
well as to the 'capitalist, and, as far
as possible, to make them feel that
their true interests are one and in
separable. [Applause.]
As a candidate it shall be my con
stant aim to extend, strengthen and
confirm the unity and good feeling of
the Republican
. party, and in this
work I sincerely invoke the aid of
every true Republican. For my own
part. I will not recognize divisions or
factions in the party, but will from
this time forth look upon it only as
united, harmonious, patriotic and en
thusiastic in the development and de
termination of the great principles
and measures of' progress for which it
was organized. I have no enemies in
whose punishment I can take delight,
and whatever has been said or done
in the excitement of the movements
preliminary to this .convention that
was wrong and painful to me is frank
ly forgiven, and as far as possible ob.-
literated from my memory.
The Republican party has a proud
record in the past, and a glorious fu
ture before it. It has accomplished
more good in a shorter space of time
than any other organization that ever
existed, and we have reason to rejoice
that it still lives, and moves, and haS
a being. _among its achievements is
the abolishment ofslavery. That scan
dal to humanity and opprobrium of
the nation lies dead alnidst its wor
shippers. The rights and privileges of
all men are secured in their lives, their
homes,their labor, and their persons.
All men' are protected because they
are men, without reference to ace or
color. In the language of Abraham
Lincoln, it "cares for him who has
borne the battle, and fbr his widow
and his orphan, and see us achieve
and cherish a lasting peace among our
selves and with all ratiene." Each in
dividual is animated with love for the
Union and for universal liberty.
Never was a Republican found guilty
of firing into the flag of his Country
and shooting down its brave defend
ers. The party has sacredly decreed
the payment of the entire deb,s.ineur
red to save the life of the nation. In
a word, it has defeated the nation's
enemies, saved the Union, and caused
it to be more highly respected and
admired throughout the • civilized
world than ever before. [Applause. [
Friends of the four hundred thous
and heroes who died for their coun
try, with such a glorious record, how
I can you surrender your Government
into the bands of those who would
have destroyed it within the last six
years if they could? The Union is
the ark of safety. The Republican
party has proven itself the true friend
of the Union. Sustain the Republic
an party by victory, and you will there
by sustain the Union. And suffer
not unrepentant rebels and their sym
pathizers ever to touch the hallowed
sanctuaries of either State or Nation
al Governments. Then let us here
"highly resolve" to preserve forever
the former in "Virtue, Liberty and
Independence;" and to protect, de
fend and perpetuate the latter, let us
here pledge anew "Our lives, our for
tune;, and our sacred honor."
Gentlemen of the Convention,again
I thank you.
Governor Geary, at the close of his
remarks, was enthusiastically ap
plauded.
THE Irish Republicans of this coun
try will hold a mass meeting at Chica
go on the fourth clay of July, a dem
onstration the largest of the kind ever
attempted here. The movement pos
sesses much significance, and is des—
tined to exert a strong influence on the
polities of the nation. The truth is,
Irishmen in America are weary of run
ning and waiting for the Democracy,
and there is every proSpect that they
grill be deluded:with it no longer. The
Irish, Republic, an able and influential
paper, referring to the Convention and
its probable results, says :
"ire are sure that this convention
will astonish this whole nation. From
it shall spring the best results. In less
than two years every intelligent Irish
man in America will be in the ranks of
Republicanism.• Henceforth we shall
take part in the formation of the poli
tics of the nation. We shall vote, but
shall previously pass on the issues.—
Too long have we allowed manipula
tors to print the 'straight ticket," and
then order us to vote it without criti.
cism."
The Democracy have shown a dispo
sition to take the British side of the
_American question, Irishmen are pre
paring to speak out.— Pittsburg Conn.
The Democrats of the. Third Dis
trict of Alabama finding themselves
nearly all ineligible to Congress be—
cause of having afforded aid and com
fort to the rebellion, looked about and
found ont I. C. Parkinson, who went
down from the North in 1565 and set ,
tied in their district to make money
by wirk. As lie is with them in heart
and vote, while he can taks the iron
clad oath and they can't, they nomi
nated him for Congress, and will elect
him if they can. That what we call
practical. You see a man isn't a"car
pet bagger" because he came from
the North, unless ho Le, a Republican.
LINCOLN
Eloquent Extract.
Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON; D. C.
June
_25, 1369
DEAR REPUBLICAN :—Note-worthy
incidents have been few and far be
tween, for the past two weeks„here.—
Such of our citizens as sojourned at the
" Hub" during the continuance of the
"Peace Jubilee," have returned, and,
of course, are astonishing the stay-at
homes with their accounts of the won
ders witnessed there. Among New-
Englanders, nothing but Jubilee has
been talked of for a month past, . and
the success which attended the mon
ster concert is as striking an instance
of what New England energy and
vim can accomplish, as could be desir
ed. .
The imbroglio at the Government
printing office,over the case of Louis 11.
Douglas,the colored compositorrecent
ly employed by Mr. Clapp, the Con
gressional printer, still continues; with
but little prospect of an amicable ar
rangement. The National Typograph
ical Union at its late meeting, passed
a series of resolutions, referring to
Douglass as a " rat," and denouncing
the Congressional Printer for employ •
ing him. The Government 'printers,
who constitute a large majority of Co
lumbia Typographical Union, passed a
series of resolutions deprecating the
course pursued by the National Union,
denying the assertion that Douglass is
a "rat," and pledging themselves to
stand by Mr. Clapp in his effort to re •
sist the proscriptive course attempted
to be laid doWn by the National Un
ion. The " down town" printers gen
erally oppose the course of the Gov-
ernment printer's and uphold the Na
tional Union, and, taken altogether,
things are decidedly mixed. The
Bricklayer's Union has expelled six of
its members, employed in the U. S.
Navy Yard, for refusing to strike be
cause colored bricklayer's were put to
work on the same yard with them.
It is certain, however, that the Gov
ernment officials will not yield in this
respect to the demands of those who
still cling to their absurd prejudices
against race and color. The question
at issue is simply this : Shall the col
ored man be allowed to pursue an hon
est vocation in order to support him
self and family, and contribute his por
tion to the wants of society; or shall
he, being shut out from all occupa
tions open to others, be forced to com
mit crime, become a public charge, or
starve ? . There can be but one course
left for all gOod and honest citizens.—
Slavery is dead, and those who really
desire its re-establishment can be coun
ted on one's fingers. To deny work to
the hands so eagerly extended there
for,simply because the owner is a shade
darker than one's self, is to set one's
self in opposition to the divine com
mand. The daty of aligood citizera is
to give their support., both actual and
constructive, to those men who are
leading the attack on the last strong
hold of that spirit which so long sus
tained human slavery . : We warn the
Trades' Unions that if they persist in
throwing themselves in the track of'
the car of Progress, crush them
in its onward movement. That a body
of men so intelligent as those who fol—
low the " Art preservative" generally
are, should not be lifted above this
spirit of proscription, is wonderful,and
only proves the danger of ever allow
ing prejudice to ovet-rule, in any in
stance, the innate sense of right.
The official guillotine still finds a few
victims occasionally. Some twenty
five or thirty regular clerks, and all the
temporary clerks in the Qartermaster
General's office, were discharged a few
days ago on account of the insufficien
cy of the appropriations Made by Con
gress for the present fiscal year.
About the same number were also
discharged from the Adjutant Gener—
al's, Surgeon General's, Pension and
Land offices. The force at present em
ployed in the Public offices is, in many
instances, insufficient to keep up the
current work, and there are many old
claims being presented, growing out of
th© war, which owing to the length of
time which has elapsed, and the diffi ,
culty in obtaining the necessary proof,.
require a very patient and laborious in
vestigation. Indeed, the latter class
are numerous enough to warrant the
appointment of a separate commis—
sion, to continue for a year or two, to
adjust the same.
The famous Cincinnati Base Ball
Club, familiarly known throughout the
country as the " Red Stockings," ar
rived here last night, and are stopping
at Milliard's. They are enquestiona
bly the finest and most gentlemanly
looking set of Baseball players ever
seen in this city. Their arrival has giv
en a new impetus to Base-ball circles,
and Ball is about the only thing we
hear talked of for the present. They
play the "Nationals" to-day, and the
" Olympics" on Saturday and Mon—
day. Both the Nationals and Olympics
are strong Clubs, and, although, they
scarcely hope to vanquish the conquer
ors of the strongest Clubs which Cleve
land, Buffalo, Rochester, Albany, Lan
singburgh, Boston, New York City,
Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Baltimore
could produce, they mean to play their
best. and, encouraged as they will be
by the presence and smiles of their
hosts of lady friends, we have no fears
of their being disgraced, although they
may be. defeated. The extraordinary
success of the Red Stockings is said to
lie in the fact that not one of the nine
is an indulger in strong drink.. Tem
perance men and others desirous of
cultivating a good physique, will make
a note of this.
Yours truly,
KAPPA
"Play 6n The Slate."
During a recent fire in New York
city, says the Blair County Radical a
fireman, bearing in his hand a slate
upon which was tallied the drinks of
himself and companions, appeared at
the second story window of a burning
tavern and shouted to his fellow fire.
man below, "No. 6,play on the slate."
The lesson of effectiveness taught by
this homely illustration, is worth pon
derina over in politics to-day.
The old scratched slate labelled"De
mocracy" is written all over with such
inscriptions as "sympathy with trea
son," "resistance to the draft, ""aboli
don crusade," "unconstitutional war,'
"Lincoln's hirelings," "nigger equali
ty," "repudiation," "opposition to
soldiers voting," "opposition to the
registry law," "equal rights to the
South," "free trade," and a hundred
other inscriptions calculated to preju
dice the People against Free Govern
ment and injure the credit and com
promise the honor of the Nation.
It is the boast of the Democratic
party that their principles never
change—that Democracy is to-day
what it was at the commencement of
the war, during its continuence and
at its close. Accepting in good faith
their own declarations, we exhort our
Republican brethren in the coming
campaign to pay little heed to men,
but keep steadfast before the People
the principles of that organization. In
furtherance of that object we charge.
1. That the leaders of the Demo
cratic party are to-day the same men
who shaped the policy of that organi•
zation during the war ; that they coun
seled a cowardly submission to Trait
ors during the rebellion and hindered
the early restoration of peace by incit
ing the masses to violate the laws of
the country.
2. That in 1864 they declared the
war a "failure" and in 1868 nominated
for President a man notorious for his
active sympathy with the Rebellion ;
that the leading men in the last Na
tional Convention were rebels conspic
uous for their zeal and efficiency in the
cause of treason, and that the plat
form of the party was framed to suit
the views of those lately in rebellion.
TTT. That the leaders of the Demo
cratic party in the North are in sym
pathy with the rebels on the question
of the repudiation of the National
debt; that they arc quietly working to
depreciate the bonds of the Govern
ment and the currency of the country
by misrepresenting the financial condi
tion of the Nation and by using every
artifice to render our system of taxa
tion odious among the people.
IV. That the whole party North and
South is in favor of Free Trade and op
posed to a Tariff even to raise revenue
to help bear the ordinary expenses of
the Government; that by their course
they are justly chargeable with the de
pression of our manufacturing interests
and the . consequent non-employment
of thousands of mechanics and labor
ing men.
V. And finally, by a well organized
system of doubts and objections and
constitutional
.quibbles the leaders of
that party prolonged the war, increas ,
ed the debt, injured the. credit of the
country and materially retarded the
growth and prosperity of the manufac
turing interests of the country.
—These are but a few of the scores
spread out before the people on the old
Democratic slate, And upon them
we call upon the Republican party to
play.

G G GR ANDFAtrIERS' STOVE."
YOU TAKE
Our grandfather's stove, what a funny old
thing,
So deep, so wide and so rail;
Now the people would say, who aro stylish
and gay,
" I t was only a hole in the wall."
It matters not what, it was pleasant'to see
When night's mantle was flung over all;
Grandfather take down his good book and
read
By the light from the hole in the wall.
As the sturdy young men rolled in the great
logs,
They would laugh at each wintry squall,
Whilst grandma would sit on her old chair
and knit
By the light from the whole in tho wall.
The girls then wore home spun,- and so did
their beaux's,
For pride was a principle small;
And courting was done and hearts have
been won
By the light from the hole in the wall.
The neighbors were friendly wherever they'd
meet, -
With a word of true kindness for all;
And joy was complete to hear voices so sweet
Ring round that old hole in the wall.
In those days we know, folks cared not for
show,
Of improvements knew nothing at all;
But 'twas really no joke, when great clouds
of smoke
Rushed out from the hole in the wall.
But those days are now o'er, we shall know
' them no more,
And all those old fashions have flown;
Whilst the"solemn and gay are coming each
day
To purchase the famous "OLD HomE."
Coming not only in couples, but in scores,
as hundreds of good and wise men and
women have done before, to look — upon this
magnificent stove, which is acknowledged to
be the best cooking stove of the age. Re
member the place,
