THE COUNTY NOMINATIONS,
It is with slncoro pleasure wu plnco
In our political column this wrok, tho
iihiihm of candidate selected by thu
County Convention for oursovcral coun
ty o(lciH. Thoy nro "good men nnd
true," and mostly personal friends to
whom wo aro drawn by strong bonds of
sympathy and coafldcncu.
Charles F. Mann, of Heaver, will con
uluda a lone political career of activity
ond Influence by tnklug a neat In our
courts; General Ent will asuumo tho
duties of Prothonotary 5 Mr. Jacoby
succeed Col. Frecro as Register and
Recorder : Mr. Robblns wlllcomo down
from Fishlngcrcclc to act Commissioner,
and Mr. Lowenberg, an ever actlvo and
courteous gentleman, will take charge
of tho county funds. Tho subordinate
fKHts of Coronor and Auditor will be
suitably filled. All these results have
been proposed by the Convention, and
will bo Bocured by tho action of tho
people.
We are strongly opposed to lndlserlm
liiatn pralso of candidates. Looking
over party newspapers, ordinarily, just
after nominations, one would suppose
that all the nominees were taints uiui
that virtue would die with fheiu. Buf
In the present easo tM-r-: is real cause
for I'oinmumliiig tho notion of tho Con
ventiou and thu men put in nomination
by it.
Mr. Mann has great natnTal sagacity
and bound judgment, and is well ac
quainted with tho.peoplo of tho county
and with their affairs., Of Gen. Ent we
can hardly trust ourselves to speak.
Wo have known him many years tw a
Soldier and a Gentleman In common
with others, but wo have also known
him as an intimate and trusted friend.
lie is all over right, and having recently
entered into tho " holy estate of matri
mony," may bo accepted in tho futuro
as a model man. It whs no doubt to
many persons an unpleut-ant thing to
withhold support from our present Fro
thouotary (who has muUo an excellent
offleor energetic and Accommodating,)
and select a new favorite! .but tho
principle; of rotation was. thought to
Justify li not demand it.
Tho volco of tho county was very
strongly for Mr. Bobbins fur Commis
sioner, aud his nomination was .but
duo recognition of his merit and of tJio
claims of his, township.
Williamson n. Jacoby as an old .cam
paigner and printer, could not bo beaten;
though a pair of worthy gentlemen
tried their hands at unhorsing him., lie
kept his seat firmly and won tho prize.
The fact is, Smoketown was for hlmt a
fact overlooked by Ills competitors until
it was too late I
Mr. David Lowonberp; was very suc
cessful ,iu his first political enterprise
among our, people. He had mors than
u threo-fourth's voto, among tho dele
gates and all opposition to him .was
abandoned. Even tho Goliath of tho
Berwick Gazttlc fearful of David's sling,
retired early from the engagement.
It was difficult for the Convention, to
tlx its cboico upon u curidid&to. for As
sociate Judgo, and the scale of choico
was well balanced for a time between
Mifillu and Beaver, with a goo 1 outly
ing voto thrown to Main and Fanklln.
Finally, It was thought, that Beaver
had tho best iai() und her candidate
was taken.
undoubtedly Just, Is free from nil the
objections which condemn tho Craw
ford county plan, anil would, wo bo
lluVe,lmveiiiiiol -military effect If adnp-
tedt Wo know of no obstacle to It or
pretense of reason agalnit It, save one
it tcoutil decrease the relative power of

effect, or ono equivalent to it, would
follow from nu reasonable plan of re
form and ns any objection would npply
equally to tho Crawford county system
Ih fact nothing, but' habit custom

REFORM IN NOMINATIONS.
It will bo seen by tho proceedings of
tho Convention that two propositions
for reform In tho manner of making
nominations' wcro presented to that
body, but that neither of them was
udopted. Tho question of change will
no doubt conio up again in future Con
volitions, and it was perlmp.-f well that
tho Convention gavo time for full con
-sidcration of this Important subject be
fore iltvUIvu action should bo had,
Tho two propositions onVred wero
very different hi character though look
ing to tho same object and inspired by
blmllitr views ; tho ono being for pro
port lonnl representation and tho other
for tho Introduction of the Crawford
county system. Ultimata changotiuay
bo rcgurdfd as Inovllable, but thu ques
tion Is what formshallltassumo? Hlmll
wo abolish the Delegato system or re
form 11 Y
TI(o Crawford County 'plan of nomi
nations has a plauslblo appoaranco and
upon first view Is well calculated to win
assent from friends of reform ; but In
our opinion It Is a very bad plan and
quite Inadmissible upon many grounds.
In addition to tho objections to It here
toforo statod In our columns, wo will
mention one which has boon developed
by experience and Is concluslvo, to wit,
tho Inevitable tendency of tho plan to
produce and encourago fraud. Tho
popular voting it permits Is under no
guarantee of law and does not admit
of scrutiny or roviow In any convenient
manner. Unfair or corrupt 'voting way
bo practised under It witli impunity and
havo full uml disastrous etroct. un
truo, coerced or corrupted votos must bo
counted to affect tho result, because
thero Is neither tlino nor machinery for
Investigation and even if theso could
bo had tho expense of investigation
would be intolerable. The great socurl
ty for fairness in elections is tho rivalry
of parties or or candidates, xnoy waiwi
each other and all concerned nro put
upon their good behavior, Even at
Delegato elections this rivalry oxlsts in
full force whorovpr two ucJtota nro in
tho field, and whore thcro Is no contest
thorocan bo no Inccntlro to fraud, for
Uio result Is certain at all events and
cannot bo aided by falso votes. But
uudbr tho Crawford County plan io all
districts where thero la no contest, or
but little contest, thoro Is a strong in
ducement to swell the vote and no pro
tection against false voting or falso .roi
turns,
Yegraut, pay we Insist thatourpros
out Delegate plan Is very unfair and
unsatisfactory aud require amendment;
bujf wo nro not prepared toglvo it up for
tho Crawford county plan.

Qentlemks: At tho first con von
lenl moment I remv-'io your communl
callon', Informing mo of ray nomination
by tho Democratic State Convention
of tho 14tli Instant, for tho offlco o
Governor of" Pennsylvania. I deslro to
mniid 'dim nckhowlcdsmonts for this'
high evldenco of tho esteem and' friend
shippf my folios-citizens, and to say
that I, accept tho, nomination icnuereu
mol
Having, at' tho solicitation oi my
frlonds (thoucli with unfeigned rcluc
tance), been lnduco lo permit tho use of
mv namo for tho nomination, my no-
cerjtanco becomes a matter of courso, if
not a" duty: but, I announto it wim
deep sense of 'tho responsibility assure
od. 'Mv reliance In accepting tho po3i'
tlnn nf n candidate, and in agreeing to
perform Executive bcrvlco for tho'peo
pie, is not alono upon my own strcngtl
or pood intentions, but malu'y Upon
noimlar indulgenco and generous sup
port, and' upbn that superintending
Providence which can bless mo laDors
of nubile' men.
If I shall bo placed, by tho votes of
thd people, in tho Gubernatorial chair.
I Bhall endeavor to moet tno oxpecta
tlons of friends, nnd'of all who havo at
heart tho truo interests or our great
Commonwealth. 'To this ond 1 shall
labor to secure those objects in which
wo.'fcel a common Interest and concern,
among which are tho preservation of
tho Stato credit ;' tho reduction of tho
oxpensos of tho Btat'o government to
tholr lowest practicable point, thereby
lessening .tho burdens and taxation of
tho people; tho encouragement or a lib
eral system of improvements for inter
course and trade, in order that produc
tion may bo Increased, labor moro
amply rewarded, and general prosperi
ty secured; tho Just execution of tho
laws: (Involving n cautious and sparing
uso of tho power to pardon offenders),
so that good faith shall bo kept among
tho people, and erlmo bo repressed ; tho
promotion of thu education of our
youth by a general system of organized
schools, aud by special Institutions of
learning, so that knowledge and virtue
Bhall becomo moro and inoro tho solid
foundations of our f.-co political system;
and, lastly, the, restoration of purity
and character to our government by tho.
pultlng down or preventing of Bpecinl
and corrupt legislation, and of all im
proper uses' or management of 'tho pub
lic funds'. To theso general objects,
howover, should be added, a careful at
tention by government to tho Interests
of labor. Having earned my bread by
the labor of my hands during many,
and I may addl'tho happiest years of
my life, and owing whatovcr I posaoss
(under tho Providence of God) to pa
tient and honest toll, I can novcr bo
unmindful of tho interests of tlioso
with whom my cntiro life) lias been m

lng havo not qualified mo for spce:h

will not bo expected that I shall under

niciiAiin Stiles further consid-
red as a Witness : His testimony
n theCoia-ry case : On tho 22nd of
November lf&l Stiles was examined ns
witness against Stott E. Collcy nnd
testified to declarations mado by tho
latter n year before and also to an nt-
tempt of Intimidation directed against
himself by somo person wnony un
know. Wo glvo Ids testimony ns It was
delivered,
ltkhard Stiles, sworn ; I rcsldo In
Ronton township; n farmer, I know
Stott E.Colioy.for ilflccn.ycara or moro,
I.wosnn enroling officer for tho first
nlno month's .drafted men; nlso .revised
third enrolment after second enrolment,
I received n lotter about tho 1st of last
May, Evidence of the contents of the
letter objected to by the Defense but atf.
mlttcdbulht,Commisson. Found a let'
tor nailed, In n coffin and tho lid turned
down, Cofflu was.loft as a solemn warn
ing charged mo with .dragging ,my
friends and neighbors to, n field of
slaughter In dofonco of .aiitinferior raco
of beings gavo. mo solemn warning.
Lotter produced.) At ono tlrao at
In Benton township had n conversation
with tho accused. It was nbout ono year
aco. aftor tho clectlon.of 18C3, JIo con
tended If thero had been a fair election
"Woodward would havo been Governor,
It was through fraud Curtin was elected,
ThoDcmocrats would try thoballot-box
oncomoro; if thoy had not lair play
thero would bo blood spilt.
Cross-examined : Prlsonor novcr
threatened or intimidated mo; I do
notknow who wroto tho letter produced
I think the conversation, with him was
in November 1803, about ono month nf-
tcr election."
Remarks : In tho foregoing testl
mony tho attempt to create prejudice
against tho Defendant by irrelevnn
mntternnd strained Inferences, Is very
evident. That it was not successful In
producing tho conviction of tho accused
was1 not tho fault of tho witness but was
owlug to a vigorous and Judicious do
fence by which tho weaknessof thd caso
for tho prosecution was fully exposed.
Tho alleged conversation with Collcy
it will bo observed was In November
1803, too rcmoto in tlino from tho ovonts
of, August 1801 to authorize its intro
duction as evidenco (cpccially as no
connection was shown or pretended bo
tccn tho conversation and those
events,) and was in itself Inconsequen
and unimportant. Stiles says that Ool
ley complained that tho election had
been unfair, but said his party would
try tho ballot-box onco moro and' then
inhey had not fair play thero would bo
blood spilt. Whothcr this declarntlbn
be considered n prophecy dr a throat is
wholly Immaterial j. in either caso It'
was contingent upon a stato of facts
Which' might novcr occur,and it'dld not
by any necessary consequence import
that Collcy himself would bo'conccrned
in tho shedding of blood. Besides, ns
an appeal to tho ballot-box was to bo
ogain made, which could only bo at tho
expiration of a wholo ycar,it would not
seem that tho catastropho foretold was
a very pressing danger or very likely
ovor to tako place; Tho truth is, that
this conversation between political op
ponents about an clection, to which 'ono
of them testified n year afterwards', was
ns 'wo havo described it, Irrelovant;
as testimony and unimportant in char
acter. Wo cannot bo certain that Stiles
recites it fairly; but If ho d6cs, as bvi
deuce Of guilt it is contemptible aud
worthless.
Tho coffin story, may ho thought a
very grave matter at first view, but its
importanco will disappear upon exami
nation. Somebody acted very improper
ly in playing a rough joko upon Stiles or
sorlously attempting to alarm him.
"Whatever may have been tho motive of
this unknown offender tho net of annoy
lng Stiles was n wrong for which wo
have no'dispoaltlon to mako any excuse.
But what had Mr. Colloy to do with tho
coffin transaction, nnd why was it in
troduced in ovldeuco against him? Tho
answer to this question Is easy and It is
ono pregnant with Instruction upon tho
subject of military trials. Mr. Colley
had nothing whatovcr to do 'with that
transaction nud proof of It was Intro
duccd on his trial in contempt of nil
law andjustlco and in splto of his pro
test, only to'prcjudlco his caso and se
cure an unjust conviction. This would
not havo been allowed In any regular
Court of lustlce. but It was In keeniii"
with tho character of n Military Com
mission. W0 will only ndd, that SUles
was probably never in tho slightest
danger of actual Injury from his un
known disturber. Tho people who send
auonymou3rlcttcrsnnd glvo secret warn
Ings, very commonly Jack, boldness,
courage, will aud onterprlso for tho ex
ecution of unlawful or violent designs.
Wo havo now mentioned every item
of testimony given by Richard Stll&s in
tho Rantz aud Colloy cases, and havo
subjected all Important points thereof
to distinct examination. Tho conclu
sions to which wo como nro not favora
blo to tho witness, but thoy aro fairly
drawn from his own language and rest
upon considerations which must bo ac-
copted by ovcry Impartial and careful
oDservor. lie was zeaipus in tno perso
cution of Innocent men, his neighbors
nnd fellow citizens ; colored his stato
montsof fact against them to tlfo'polnt
of self-contradiction; intruded Irrele
vant matters into his testimony, and
exhibited throughout a strong partisan
spirit which howover nllowablo in elec
tion contests is' wholly out of placo in,
the administration of Justice.
Stiles was not examined as a witness
on tho trial of Daniel M'Henry.
Whothcr his budget or worthless infor
roctlon was exhausted, or tho Commis
sion tired or him, is uncertain. Ho
seems to havo collapsed upon tho coffin
question and to havo disappeared from
notlco nt Harrlsburg, But his rownrd
for sorvlco dono,was not withhold. Ho
subsequently served ns a dlstlllory Store
keeper In n small way, and Is now, wo
belleyo, an assistant Assessor of Inter
nal Rovcnuo under' Radical appoint
ment. -
pur notice of this witness .might bo
thought Incomplete If wo did not niou
tion that he Is n disabled soldier of tho
war. Ho wont Into tlo sorvlco, to bo
suro,undcr bounty, very Iqto in tho. coiir
test, but ho gavo an arm lo his country
and has bcon represented as an object of
patriotic sympathy ou account of Ids
loss. Wo aro disposed to admit this
plea as reasonable, or nt all events as
entitled to much consideration; but ono
circumstance in tho caso chills a little
our ardor and makes us pause and co
llect. The arm lost by Jllcfmrd Stiles in
the war was the very rljht arm raised by

HOW TO INSURE VICTORY.
'flic Democracy of Pcnnsj Ivatiia says
tho Lancaster Intelligencer havo it in
their power to elect Asa Packer Gover
nor and Cyrus L. Pershing Juilgo of the
Supremo Court by n large majority. Tho
cntiro voto cast nt thoStato election last
October was 000,130 j of which tho Radi
cal candiilato for Auditor General re
ceived 331,108 and tho Democratic can
didate 321,731, tho Radical majority be
ing 0.G77. At tho coming Stato election
thero will bo a very largo falling off
from tho voto of last year. Wo need
n6t attempt to enumerate tho causes
which will comblno to produce such a
result. It has always happened that
thero was n'ercat falllngoiriu tho popu
lar voto of Pennsylvania tiio year after
ah exciting Presidential campaign, and
If will undoubtedly bo tho casd'thfa
year. How great tho falling off will lo
It wpuli bo'dlffleult'to foretell ; but it is
perfectly safo to predict that, (ho voto
cast for 'Governor this year will not
reach 'that cast for Auditor General last
year by at least thirty thousand, wliilo
it is pr'obablo tho falling blT will not bo
less than fifty thousaud.
Tho fact, that thero will bo a largo
falling off.in tho vote, is tho ono tiling
to bo kept' steadily in view during tho
present campaign. It is perfectly safe
to say now that that party xclUba success
ful next'Octobcr whicli polls its men vote
Viost fully. As a general thing tho
Democrats of ' "Pennsylvania havo had
tho advantago in what' nro called' tho
"off years." Heretofore, tho masses of
our party havo been steadier aud moro
reliabld than their opponents. Wq
elected Sharswood by bringing out our
voto better than tho Radicals did. That
year tho .failing off in the voto of tho,
oiaio most marKcti,. uiero ueing
nearly twelve hundred Democrats iu
Lancaster' county who failed to vote,
and moro than a, proportional number
of Radicals. Wo owed our success in
that campaign moro, to tho exceeding
great apathy of our opponents than to
our own energy and promptitude It
will not lio safo for us to rely so largo
ly upon tho apathy of.bur opponents In
iho present contest. If wo do wo shall
bo overwhelmingly beaten.
Wo can certainly elect our candidates
if we poll our full vole, even without,
any help front dissatisfied Repulilcans,
To get out tho Demoeratio voto of Penn
sylvania is tho great work set beforo us
In tho present campaign. To that end
every effort of ovcry actlvo man n tho
party must bo constantly directed.
Every Democrat in tho Stato should ho
at onco mado to fuel lxla ludividul re
sponsibility. An efficient working or
ganlzatlon must bo Immediately perfect
ed in every election district ; such an
organization ns will bring overy Domo
cratic voter'to tho polls on tho second
Tuesday of October, aid bring him there
prepared lo vote.
Tho Registry law"may bo unconslltu
tlonal, but until tiio decision rendered
by a set of partisan Judges Is ro ycrsed It
must bo regarded. Thero must bo no
mistakes mado, no I053 of votes through
carelessness. It must bo diligently
scon to that no votor is deprived of his
constitutional right of franchiso by any
uovico or tho uospcrato Radicals.
Wo ilced not detail to our readers tholr
duties, Theyknow'thcm nlready, and
will uo Kept fully posted as tho cam
palgn advances. What wo dcslro to do
at present, Is to itnprcaj upon tho minds
of overy Democrat tho assuranco, that a
f ull'poll of tho Democratic voto will olect
Packer and Pershing by a largo'majori
ty j and to fasten upon overy Individ
ual member of tho party a solemn con
viction of his own individual responsi
bility.
A great nud crowning triumph lies
within our grasp. By electing Packer
ami l'crshlng wo can put nn end to
Radical mlsrulo In Pennsylvania, and
gladden tho hearts of ovcry truo patriot
111 tno lanu. .Novcr had any political
organization moro solemn responsibili
ties resting upon it than has tho Demo
cratic party of Pennsylvania in tho
present crisis. It is n contest In which
every individual Democrat ought
"To feol as If himself wero lie

And tp'onsuro tho full pol of our ranks
