A Word of Caution.
We obscrvo that many of our DcinO'
crane coiomporarues aru niivocuuii$&n,e
claims of their favorite-iViua'dates for
OoorMHriTtTijn of the Supremo
jurt, with moro zeal than prudence.
By tho time tho Convention Is held they
will havo made up their minds that cer
tain defeat awaits us If any other can
didate than their own is chosen, or nt
least feel that Injnstico has been dono if
their efforts are not crowned with suc
cess. Wo also disappro"vo of tho plan of in
structing delegates for certain candid
ates montlis beforo tho Convention will
meet. Our wisest, ablest men should
bo chosen as Delegates, and after a full
comparison of views, they should nora
inato tho strongest man without any ref
erence to his claims on tho party. Tho
party claims support from all its mem
bers, and no ono or two havo tho right
to stand in the way of success for tho
moro idea of rewarding past fealty.
We want success, and desire to nominato
any good man who can achlevo It. If
any of tho candidates named havo tho
necessary strength they should bo nom
inated ; If not, and wo can win with an
entirely now man, let us tako him up.
Our defeats In 1860-G8 in tho Presi
dential contest and in 18GG in tho Gub
ernatorial ono, wcro owing to tho fact
that tho majority of tho Delegates wero
Instructed, ana however much they
may havo desired to nominato other
men, their hands wero tied by tho ac
tion of nominating Conventions. Do
not attempt to forestall events. Tho
Convention will not meet for months
heuco, and many tilings may occur to
render necessary tho choice of a man
now entirely unthought of in connec
tion with that ofilcc.
"Let us have Pence."
Tm: war, so far as It concerned tho
State, witli regard to expenses, ceased
In 1S02, and wholly in 1SC5, but tho
Itadical leaders still hold on, at Harris

roport of the Auditor General for 1808,
the amount paid for military expenses
was $120,000.00.

acting as Paymaster General, with a

tho very ablest debaters In tho Senato
and when ho speaks on any subject, ho
issuro to bo listened to attentively. His
clear, logical mind, and .excellent rca
soning Illuminates any subject he takes
hold of. Ho is tho author o(.jevcral
valuable measures among thorn: is tho
cumulative system of voting, which
will bo adopted sooner or later, Ho
enjoys tho confidence of all his brother
Senators, of whatever party, no less for.
ills ability than tho purity of his prl

been represented In tho Senato with

The Temperance Convention.
Tin; Slnto Tcmpcrnnco Convention

Secretaries O. J. Search, of Phila

. Wright, of Lancaster.
Treas urer L.F.KiitiiTiiiaii, of Schuyl

Tho point of interest in tho proceed
ings was tho effort to commit tho Con
vention to tho policy of a scnarato po
litical action by temperance men. This
effort resulted in tho adoption of tho
following !
Wheheas, In n number of districts
of tho Stato friends of prohibition havo

Houso of llepresontativcs, nnd under
tho system of "locnl legislation" wliolo

successfully enforced,
Anu Whereas, In a number of oth

ly petitioning tho X,egi9laturo for simi

that tho pcoplo of the Stato at largo aro
not yet sufficiently educated In sound
tcmpcrnnco principles to warrant tho
formation of n separate political tern-
peranco party, wiucn, in tno juugmont
of this Convention, would onlv nrouso
and Intensify public prejudlco against
us, and not only fail to produce any
good results but seriously endanger tho
existing prohibitory local laws referred
to, ami also ueiciu all lurther enorts now
being mado to secure similar benefits
nnd blessings in other districts through
out tho State, It is
jcesoivca, riint local proiiiDitlou,
wherever it Is posslblo to securo and

Jiesolved, That wo recommend tho
Eassago of a well-digested general law

the subject of tho prohibition of tho
manufacturo and salo of nil kinds of al
coholic preparations to tho voters of

0 WANT AND HIS CABINET.
Following tho interviow of Moor
head, Dlckoy, nnd Pettis, with Grant,
yesterday In relation to a Cabinet posi
tion for Pennsylvania, in the now ad
ministration, comes another meeting
to-day, between Grant and Alexander
McUuro, who called at "Headquarters"
this morning to inquiro if ho (Grant,)
in stnting yesterday that a citizen of
Pennsylvania should havo n scat In tho
Cabinet, rcforred to ex-Governor A. G.
Ciirtin, General Grant replied that ho
did not. Well, said McCluro, I trust
you will appoint somo man thoroughly
nnd prominently identified with tho
Republican party, and not such men as
Boric, Welsh, Smith or Stuart; that
they would bring no strength to tho
party In tho State, and that somo gov
ernment support was absolutely neces
sary, othcrwlso tho Democracy would
carry tho Stato next fall. To this Grant
replied that ho could not seo what ob
Jcctlon any loyal man could havo to
Georgo II. Stuart. Mr. McCluro said
ho had none, but ho had known tho
politics and politicians of Pcunsylva
nia for twenty years, and If Stuart
wero appointed, ho should havo to nsk
him (Grant) for an introduction" to
him. After somo further conversa
tion, Grant said that "although elected
by a political party, ho was not tho
representative of a political party."
Whereupon McCluro withdrew, re
marking that at previous Interviews ho
had mistaken Grant's status, and now
ho was glad to find It out. Tho Radl
cal members of tho Pennsylvania dele
gation aro in "high dudgeon" over tho
story as told by McCluro around tho
Capitol this afternoon and all sorts of
maledictions are uttered against tho
loyal Ulysses, for daring to assrt that
ho had a will of his own, and was "not
tho representative of a political party."
THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
Tho Houso this nftcrnoon ndopted
tho report of tho Conference Commlttco
on tho Constitutional amendment cs
tabltshlng negro suffrago In all tho
States. It is said that tho words "hold
ofllco" aro stricken out, but that makes
no difference. If Congress can declaro
negroes entitled to exerciso tho prlvi-
lego of suffrago in States, it can, with
equal propriety, declaro them entitled
to hold ofllco. Tho Senato will, no
doubt, concur In tho action of tho
Houso,and thus tho amendment will bo
submitted to tho States.
DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
Thcro was a Democratic caucus held
at tho Capitol this morning, when it
was agreed to hold tho regular caucus
to select candidates for Speaker of tho
House, Clerk, Ac, on Tuesday evening
next, In tho rooms of tho Judiciary
Committee of tho House. Tho occas
ion led to a general interchange of
views In regard to what would bo the
wisest courso of tho Democratic party
in tho future. It is understood that tho
determination arrived at was, that
whllo they would make no factious op
position to General Grant's administra
tion, they would contlnuo in the future,
as In tho past, firmly to maintain their
principles and keep intact their organi
zation. V. B. COMMISSIONERS ABllOAD.
Tho Conference Committee on tho
Diplomatic appropriation blllhas decid
ed to report In favor of tho appoint
ment of a United States Commissioner,
at a salary of $3,000 per annura,for Hon
duras, San Salvador, Nlcaraugua, and
Costa Rica. In Central America. Also
for missions to Ecuador, Bolivia, Peru,
and Uruguay, the salary not to exceed
$3,000. Tho salary of tho Minister to
Chllo not disturbed.

of the remains of Wirz, oxecuted by

posed of Yankee officers, in this city,
in tho summer of 1605, Tho remains

and will probably bo removed to tho
residence of his widow In Kentucky.
THE COPPER TARIFF.
Tho bill Increasing tho rates of duty

ing passed tho Senato to-day over the
veto, by 38 to 12, It parsed tho Houso
yesterduy by tho necessary two-thirds
voto.

THE SPEAKERSHIP.
Mr. Dawes having written a letter to
Mr. Blalno declining to be a candidate
or tho Speakership against him (B.),
tho latter is now tho most formldablo
candidate, and It seems that, by com
mon consent, ho will bo tho nomiueo of
tho Republican party. Tho Democrats
liavo not yet determined whom thoy
will voto for, but tho probabilities aro
that cither Hon. James Brooks, of Now
York; Judgo Woodward, of Pennsyl
vania; Mr, Eldridgo, of Wisconsin, or
Mr. Kerr, of Indiana, will bo tho man.
ROLL OP THE NEXT IIOUSK.
Ait ovenlng paper 6tatos that Mr.
McPhcrson, Clerk of tho House, has
mado up a roll of tho Representatives
elect thus far to tho Forty-first Congress.
After excluding tho members from
Louisiana and Georgia, and several
whoso seats nro contested, tho numbor
foots up 137lladicalsaud 'C2 Democrats.
Tho latter havo 71 members already
elected, but, of courso, a number of
them will bo counted out, cither by tho
Clerk or tho Houso.
THE REVENUE COMMISSIONERS!!!!'.
Hon. Columbus Delano had a long
Interviow with Commissioner Rolling
BLOOMSBURG,
to-day, nnd that fact, in connection
with tho mention of Mr. Dolnno's
nnmo In connection with tho Internal
Rovcnuo Bureau, evoked considerable
interest.
GEORGIA.
Boutwcll had n resolution in his
pocket yesterday from tho so-called
Reconstruction Commlttco, declaring
tho seats of tho Georgia members va
cant, nnd that Stato still unreconstruct
ed, but nccordlngto nn afternoon pnpor
of this city Grant visited tho cloak
room of tho Houso yesterday nftornoon,
sent for Boutwcll, had a talk with lilm,
nnd oxprcsscd opposition to ills (Bout-
well's) resolution, consequently it was
not reported, and tho Georgia members
will not bo turned out this Congress.
Magnanimous Grant 1 Disappointed
Boutwcll !
A DISGRACEFUL SPECTACLE.
A most disgraceful spcctaclo was wit
nessed on tho floor of tho Houso yester
day nftcrnoon In tho debato on tho
Loulsinna contested election caso. A
negro named Menard, a claimant for
tho scat, was allowed fo rise on thejloor
and address the House, which ho did
for half an hour or more. When ho
had concluded, a low-bred whito Radi
cal mcmbor from Illinois, named Cul-
lorn, went over and congratulated him.
Tho scene was disgusting In tho ex
treme, and ought to consign thoso who
brought it about to eternal disgraco and
Infamy.

tary McCulloch is going as a partner
into Jay Cooko's banking-house. The
Intimacy of Jay Cooko and McCulloch
has been so great whllo thoy havo been
occupying their present positions, that
thcro will bo no difficulty in each chang
ing placo with tho other without detri
ment to tho public servico or tho prl
vato property of cither.

officers, except General Schotlcld and

REPRESENTATIVE REFORM.
Senator Buckalow to-day mado a ro
port from tho Select Commltteo on
Representative Reform. Tho bill re
ferred to them, and now reported, pro
poses to securo fair and complete repre
sentation to every important political
Interest in tho country; to strlko nn
effective blow at corruptions in popular
elections ; to securo moro of harmony
nnd contentment than now exist among
tho people, und to improve tho compo
sltion of tho popular branch of Congress
by facilitating tho introduction and
continuanco of men of ability and mer
it in that body.
NEGROES FOR MARSHALS.
Ii.tho published programmo of tho
Inaugural ceremonies, I notico tho
names of soveral gcnulno Africans for
Assistant Marshals for tho procession
This Is a new feature, but not at all sur
prising, sinco a negro has been permit
ted to address tho Houso of Representa
tives, and claim a seat therein. What
can tho while peoplo of tho country bo
thinking about? It Is high timo that
somo speedy disposition slisuld bo mado
of tlicso negroes and their while allies,
otherwise tliero will bo no room in tho
country for a man who believes in tho
supremacy of tho whlto race.
QENERAIj OF THE AEMIE3.
It Is stated that Grant will not resign
his commission as Goneral of tho arm
ies, as In his opinion, it expires upon
bis inauguration as President, aud that
lio will on Friday next transmit to tho
Senato, tho namo of General W. T,
Sherman to bo General of tho armies of
tho United States.
PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S FAREWELL RE
CEPTION.
Whatover may havo been tho motlvo
that induced tho attendanco, It Is cer
tain that President Johnson's farowell
reception to-night was tho largest that
ho has held for a long whllo, not even
excepting tho New Year receptions,
From tho timo tho doors opened, at 8 v
m until after midnight, tho crowd
poured through tho halls and paid their
respcats to tho Chief Magistrate of tho
nation, whoso term Is so soon to expire,
ARNOLD AND SPANG LER.
Tho pardon papers for Arnold and
Spangler aro In course of preparation at
tho Attorney-General's office, and may

RADICAL CAUCUS.
Tho Radical caucus nominated Hon
James G. Blaine, of Maine, for Speaker
Edward M'Pherson, of Pennsylvania
for Clerk; G. N. Ordway, Sergeant-at
Anns, and Buxton, of Now York, Door
keeper. Without nominating a post
master, tho caucus adjourned. Ordway's
reuomlnatlon Is generally regarded us
an endorsement of the corrupt lobby
which dictates it.
THE INAUGURAL.
Gen. Grant has finished his inaugural
address. It covers six pages of letter
paper, and is estimated to bo of about
tho samo length as that of Mr. Lincoln
in 1805. Nothing deflnito concerning
Its tenor has transpired, except that it
will urgo the ratification of tho Constitu
tlonal Suffrage Amendment and tho
paymont of tho public debt in coin

A MALAHIOUS MONTH.
March, that gives us n new President, Is llso
tho Inaugural mouth of many harassing disor
ders. Entangled in its fogs aro the seeds of
coughs, colds, uud of that alternation of frigidity
nnd lire, moro widely known than admired, call
ed fever aud ague, Tho only way to avoid theso
"Utile unplcasantncsses,"lsto render the system
strong enough to fight ofTthe atmospheric poison
that produces tlicm, und tho bebt way to endow
It with this repellent power Is to tone it with
HOSTETEH'S STOMACH BITTERS.
If a wayfarer were credibly Informed that a
rullhm was waiting nt tho next corner, ho would
doubtless turn In his tracks, and tako a safer
routo to his destination. With Just about tho
sumo amount nf trouble, tho attacks of diseases
prevalent ut this season may bo evaded. Nay,
tho trouble will bo less, for drug stores lie in
every ono's routo, and every respectable drug
gist in tho Union keeps on hand IIOSTKTTEH'S
BITTEH3. Tho article is a a Inploof trade, and
It would bo us easy to find a grocery without su
gar, as the stores of au apothecary without this
popular tonic remedy.
In vlow of tho experience of tho nation with
regard to the article, during the spaco of twenty
years.lt seems almost unnecessary to recapitu
late) Ua merit! to Americans. But as our popu.
lation is increasing at the rato of a couple of mil
lions a year, In tho natural way and by Immigra
tion, It may be ns well to hint to tho rising gene
ration nnd now arrivals, (tho old settlers know
all about it,) that HOSTETTEK'S STOMACH
BITTEHS Is tho most wholesome aud potent
vegetablo tonic ever manufactured; that It is a
specific for debility, dyspepsia, biliousness, and
mlosmatio fevers ; that it prevents, ns well as
cures, these complaints and their complications;
that It is not ' bad to lake," nnd Is absolutely
harmless.
