tlmt It is tin important, one. Upon it
will ilcvolvo the Bclcctlon of candidates
for tho various ofllcca to bo filled next
October. A bad or imprudednt nomi
nation will weaken tho ticket, as a
weak link endangers rt wliolechaln ; wo
therefore) hopo that our best men will
bo selected ; men devoted to our wind
plrs, and energetic In disseminating
them.
Thu delegates to bo selected should bo
tho best men In the County, whoso ol
Jeet will bo tho patty's good and not the
advancement of selfish or personal ends.
They should be men who' will' faithfully
represent their constituency, and not be
swayed from duty by any consideration.
Wo havo not expressed through our
columns n preference for any candidate;
nor will wo do so now. They nro all
competent to perform tho duties of 'the
several offices1 to 'which they may bo
nominated, and tho nominees' will re
celvo our hearty, undivided support.
We would counsel harmony and
moderation. Our opponents aro expect

disappoint them. All ennnot'lw nomi

It is oftentimes tho duty of a Journal

from tho momentary lmportanco with
which Fortune has Invested them. Thq
man whose name heads this article is a
awe in point.

which occur in politics ithis person
lias been raised to u high place in tho
land, whilst possessing In: no do

tho end or all things. Fit representa

of mingled admiration and contempt;
admiration that having so ltttlj ho has

THE TRIALS.
Thk witness Richard Stilus: This
person, who may bo ranked In position
If not In Importance uoxt after Eil. M'-
Henry, was n swift and willing witness
for tho prosecution, and though his re
velations of fact wero not very Impor
tant nor at all rcllablo In their details,
they wero well Intended to securo tho
parly objects 07 tli6ir6'96cUtIoli. 'Tliclr'
particular selection, their coloring, and
tho spirit and temper of tho witness all
Indjcatcd or pointed toward that object..
A member ortho HarrHUurg linr who
was orciiunscl for Most of 'tho Dofdil
dants.whnio cases wero tried, recently
remarked to'us.lhatof all tho witnesses
upon tho trials ho, thought tho Worst of
luchard Stiles, who seemed nniniatcil
by a malignant spirit for enjoying tho
sufferings and hardship of his neigh
bors and whoso evident purposo and
labor It was to.lnjuro them as much as
tiosslblo by his testimony.
Stiles was a holder of certain small
ofllces,by political fav6r,durlng tho war,
and became very zcatotis t6 promote
tho Interests and gratify tho passions of
thoso to vhnm ho was Indebted, for his
appointments.
His evidence in Tirr.ItANTZ cask :
Upon tho Itantz trial, In October,
Stiles testified, that ho heard of tho
Itantz meeting on 11th of August, but
was not thcro; that ho attcuded a meet
ing at tho Ash's School House about tho
Ias.t of March 1SCI, at which twenty to
twenty-live men" wero pro-tout ; ho bo-
llove.il, tho School Directors called tho
meeting lo know" whether tho, people
would bo willing to bo taxed to ralso ri
bounty for volunteers. Somo wpro in
favor of tho proposition and somo wero
not. "Itantz was opposed ; advised tho
people to keep their money to buy arms
t6 fljilit at homo. John II. Davis said,
'John wo can't do It, wo aro too weak.'
Rnntz said, ho thought not ; ho had been
id Bloomsburgthat day; Jurtcamo from
Bloomsburg. ,IIo said, lawyer Frcezo
had old him, Illinois was about seced
ing and tho Statu of Now York. m8
about to go out of tho Union. Rnntz
said, Abolition loaders' had seven pock
;U and novor were satisfied' till they got
them all full of money. Meeting ad-
Jdumcd to meet again 'without doing
anything." Tho witness proceeded to
state a conversation ho had with Elhvl
M'DTcnryon lllhof August, and an
other which ho hftd with Ranlz In 1$02,
in which tho latter said' his son Jonab
was not of age lo bo enrolled, and mado
declarations similar to that abovo men.
tloncd about fighting at homo. Ho
(tho witness) "went on, and left him'
talking.'
Stiles then detailed a conversation he
had with William Applcmau in the
spring of 18G.1, iu regard to secret meet
Ings, as follows: "I bald to him 'I
heard you had a secret meeting at Ash's
School House.' 1. told, him lunderstoOd
they wero sworn to, resist tho draft :
understood him to say thoy wero not
sworn at all : ho said thoy did tako up
on" themselves an.ob'llgation.to support
tho constltutoln of theUnltcd States and
of tho Stato of Pennsylvania. I told
him I, had been stralghtly informed tho
object was, to resist tho draft, and, if so,
thoy would all bo arrested and put Into
prison; and ho replied, Hhero would
not bo prisons enough to hold us.? Jly
sister, Mrs., Peter Applcmau, In formed
mo of the object of tho meeting ; also
Daniel ICarn who said ho had been in,
but not till It was finished, unless ho
would bo 0110 of them." In answer to
questions by 'tho Commission witness
told spino particulars ho had heard
about, tho Itantz meeting of tho nth 'of
August, and said ho had seen men
armed going to and returning from it.
" Cross-examincd:Tbo meeting I speak
of concerning bounties at Ash's School
House was tho'flrst meeting. Thoy ad
journed to meet again without coming
to a conclusion ;J think, Samuel Rhono
was Chairman ; I think therowasavoto
taken ; I think tho majority that night
was iu favor of raising tho money;
Rautz did not vote at all; voting was
by , raising tho right hand; I kept a
sharp look out ; thero was but ono mora
meeting; then a committee was ap
pointed to canvass tho sub-districts ;
John J. Stiles, Thomas,Davis, Wljliam
Applcmau, Joiin It. ICeclcr and others;
I do not remember if Lemons's hauling
was on that day or not ; Itantz did not
opj.oso my nomination for Sheriff;' I
consider Itantz a man that talks con
siderable."
JZcumlned by the Commission ;"I can't
stale who voted In tho minority at tho
meeting to ralso bouutles. Thero was
a negative vote taken, I think Itantz
voted against it, and spoko right out
against it."
Remarks. l.Stiles sald,on direct ex
amination, "tho meeting to ralso boun
tlcsjadjourncd wlthoutdoingfljiiM&iflr."
Then, on cross-examination, "they ad
journed to meet again without coming
to a conclusion," But pressed by fur
ther questions hu Anally gavo to him
self a flat contradiction by saying; "I
think there was a voto taken ; I think
tho majority that night was In favor of
raising tho monoy."
2. Speaking of tho samo meeting ho
said, on cross-examination, "Itantz did
not voto at all ; voting was by raising
tho right hand ; I kept a sharp' look
out." But again I10 flatly contradicted
himself in saying, in answer to a ques
tion by tho CommissIon,"I think Itantz
voted against it and spoko right out
ngalnst it."
3. Stilcs's narrativo of what was said
by Hantz at tho meeting must bo great
ly exaggerated, if not agross fabrication.
Samuol Ithono Esq., who was President
of tho meeting, testified subsequently,
that he "did not hear Hantz mako any
remarks ; mado no public speech ; heard
no remarks from Itantz ;" and no wit
ness was called to corroborato Btllcs.
Besides, Esq. Ithono testified further,
that within a week after tho meeting
Itantz told him "wo must help tho boys,
tho tax will bo high hut wo must try
and pay it ;" and William Applcinan
testified, "I took subscription for boun
ties, John Itantz subscribed 1100.00 for
himself, nndfciVOO for another man.
Theso wero voluntary subscriptions In
addition to tho tax.''
4. Stiles says that iu Ids conversation
with WHIInm Applemau concerning tho
secret (or Club) meetings, ho understood
him to deny that tho members wero
sworn at all. But Immediately after.
wards ho admits that Applcmau told
him thoy took an obligation to support
the constitution of thoUnlti 1 States and
tho constitution of Pennsylvanla,whlch
was in fact tho very oath of Initiation
as shown by abundant testimony jipon
thofcovcrai trials.

Thcro follows moro of tho samo pa?
pablo literary thloving. Robbery would
bo tlio better term, becauso it is larceny
accompanied with violence. Geary not
only stolo Gardner's sentiments, but ho
put just such a Geary twist on them as
beclouded them with his dreary sense
without destroying tho Identity of tho
passage. Tlio Pennsylvania doubles
tho compliment to tho Dolty In placo of
o slnglo trlbuto of tho Massachusetts
Executive. "Gracious being" becomes
"tho nll-wlso and beneficent Being."
But this multiplication of adjectives
was clearly meant to propitlato tho
Power whoso eighth commandment
Geary was at tho moment breaking. Yet
worso remains behind. Governor Gard
ner's Yankees wero permitted to "as

Justlco probably Is eternal. It has

Farewell her friends In sadness said
Whilst weeping round her dying bed,
Wo part with you to meet no more
Till wo havo passed this Jordau o'er.
Her spirit then It soared nwuy
And left Its louely houso ofclay.
How sw eet aud calm she breuthed her last
And all her conflicts now are past.
Her spirit soared to heaven above
Where nil Is peace, nnd Joy, nnd love,
A ud may our souls like her's arlso
To greet tho Saints beyond tho skies,
Where all the ransomed shall sit down
In glory round the Fathers throuo
To pralso tho undivided three
And set oursouls nt liberty.
Why should wo weep or grieve, or vMi,
To call her back from dust
Tor she has gained a homo In heaven
Where gold will never rust.
