Democratic Slate Convention.
This body assembled nt llartlsburg
oil tho 2Hh Inst., and transacted tlio
usual business. Tho nominees for And

Qcn. WM1 McCandlkss nnd Cnpt. J.
II. Coopkii aro such men as nro fit to
la put forward for tho positions In que
tlon, and will recclvo tho hearty and
unanimous support of tho party and
It Is hoped of many others. They aro
respectively much tho superior of their
opponents, in respect to public services,
exporlcnco and peculiar qualification,
ns well as in established good public
character. Besides his services in the
Held, wherein considerable distinction
wus won, Gon. Mc'Candlem has also
served n term 1 n t ho State Senato, whero
ho also won distinction by his ability
and probity, and thcro acqulrod tho no
ciillar cxperlonco so necessary to mnko
even an honest and ablo man cfllclcnt
In thoonico of Auditor General. Cnpt,
Cooi'Kii also won distinction in tho
war as tho Commander of "Cooper'a
battery .'' wo nro not awaro that ho
has held civil office. J To is very highly
spoken of by those who know him.
Any man of good sonso nnd Integrity
may mako a good Survoyor uonornl.
Tho resolutions, excepting tho Otli,
embracothe usual platitudes and do not
require special comment at this time.
Wo aro not of thoso who have respect
for platforms set up by conventions un
less tho principles they onunlcato havo
been previously fully discussed nnd do-
chlod by tho pooplo in tho selection of
delegates. Othcrwiso thoy aro only tho
expressed opinion of tho dapper gentlo
men who voto for them. Thcso words
aro peculiarly applicable to tho 9th res
olution adopted by tho Convention, It
means, in plain terms, that tho Democ
racy yield acqulesccnco In tho 15th
Amendment, nnd will not in futuro op
IMMo negro suffrago or tho Interference
in Stato electious by the Federal gov
ernment!! This resolution, we mean
lo say, In no wiso binds or compromises
tho Democratic party, nud Is only tho
pretended opinion of 70 gentlemen who
happened to bo nblo to find their way
into a Democratic Convention as dele
gates. But tho discussion of this plat
form may woll bo postponed to somo
future period, so far as tho Democracy
nro concerned. It seems to afford n very
largo fund of amusement to tho Radical
editors and orators, nnd may effect somo
good In tho way of keeping them in
pleasant humor.
Hon. W. A. Wallace was ro-clectod
Chairman of the Stato Executive- Com
mittee. Although ho has sovcral times
' before held tho position ho has complete
ly failed to show marked ability in it,
ntid wo would much rather havo scon
tho honor conferred upon some of tho
actlvo spirits west of tho mountains,
who would havo at least infused tho
greatest amount of energy Into tho
campaign.
Regarding tho main points, however,
tho Convention has dono well has giv
en us good candidates, which is tho
greatest favor tho Democracy asked.
Tho business now is to elect tho candi
dates, and to this end every Democrat
should dovoto all his powers from this
hour until tho election closes on tho
second Tuesday of October. Let all
differences bo adjourned until after that
time, and let us move on in solid, In
vulnerable, Invinciblo mass to u suro
victory upon which tho welfare of the
wholo country so deeply depends. At
this period there is a power in harmony
that will command triumph.
German Independence
Tho sturdy character of tho Teuton
has at all times been a subject of inter
est and to most pooplo of other blood an
enigma. Often denounced as stubborn,
of all people thoy nro furthest from it,
hut they aro as firm as tho very founda
tions of the universe. Bad government,
bad leadership, and bad fortune, well
nigh crushed them during tho 18th cen
tury, but their achievements in the 19th
havo vindicated them and they aro to
day tho most powerful people on tho
faco of tho earth. Their recent triumph
over Franco has no parallel In magni
tude and completeness in history. As
conquerors their wisdom nnd modera
tion has been as perfect in nil Its parts
ns it was unexceptionable, Irresistible
and overwhelming in tho field. But
German character has had another great
trial, in tho calm councils of tho great
Prussian empire, as Ulustratlvo of their
merits as their achievements in tho
field. Taking advantage of tho great
popularity of tho Emperor and himself
ut tho clcso of tho war, which thoy had
Just closed In such a brilliant blaza of
glory, Bismarck proposed to tho Tar
liaracnt to confer dictatorial powers
upon tho Emperor and give him com
pleto control of tho National Treasury.
Tho Immediate excuse was tho condl.
tiou of tho newly captured provinces
of Alsace and Lorraine, and tho ncces
Mlty for prompt action to meet any con
tingency that might arise- there. But
their liberty and their perfect control of
the officers of tho realm Is tho Inst thing
Germans will surrender. With almost
unanimity they refused tho demand,
though Bismakck threatened reslgna
tlon, but with equal wisdom and timctl-
cal good sonso they conferred tho do
sired power so far as tho provinces in
question wcro concerned. In other
words, what is necessary to preservo
order and peace thoy willingly yield to
tho J-mperor, but further than that thoy
will bo neither coaxed, llattcred, bribed
or driven. And such Is German Inde
pendent of character.

the suspension or Dr. Lanahan as
Associate Agent of tho Book Concern
revives tho unpleasant quarrel among
Its officials which has so seriously dls
turbed tho Methodist Church. Tho
worst of those disagreements lies in tho
fact that onco carried into tho courts, as
this lias been, thoy Inovllably bring dls
credit, not on tho litigants merely, but
on the Church too, and consequently
scandalize religion. Any compromise
which avoids publicity in thoso matters
Hhould, for tills reason alone, commend
Itself to thoso Christian gentlcmeu.
Another llorrlil IIiisI(tI
On Saturday last another horllhlu
initio disaster occurred, this tluio at
TUtslon. Tho breaker caught Mm and
before all tho men could bo rescued, the
f'KI.'l"R Raw way nnd near forty men
were lea in tho mine. By great effort,
tho H:tnes were subdued and cfllclcnt
exertions wcro made tosavo tho men.
10 wcro taken out dead and sovoral
others havo slnco died. Tho rest may
recover. Wm. It. Davis, ono of the
men In tho mlno nt tho tlmo of tho oe
currcncc, gives tho following account of
It, to wit.
I am ono of tho man who have so
narrowly escaped death In tho West
I'ltlston mlno: I now feel extremely
weak and exhausted nnd vcrry dlr.zy
In my head as woll as sick nt my atom
ach. At tho momont when I first heard
that tho breaker was on firo I was hard
at work in my chamber in tho mine.
As soon as tho alarm was given, and
wo understood tho exact naturbof tho
danger, wonllcamo together as quickly
ns wo could find ono another' In tho
gangway nt tho foot of tho shaft, nud
finding it hopolcss to attempt to go up,
and knowing that thcro was no other
way of escape, wo decided at onco to
build a barricade and to shut ourselves
In behind it. Wo had ono thing of the
greatest importance in our favor thcro
was no furnaco In tho mine," nnd tho air
was furnished in tho pit by a largo fan
which drovo it down. Wo wcro per
fectly well awaro of tho fact that our
lives depended almost entirely upon tho
barrlcado wo wcro building ond wo
therefore mado it as strong as possible.
Wo mado It by trimming off very large
lumps of coal and thon fitting them to
gother closely in n stout wall. When
It was completed wo know that It was
a perfectly secure barrier ngalnst tho
fire. Wo then gavo tho closest atten
tion by listening to what was going on
outside. For two or threo hours at least
after tho barrlcado was finished wo
could distinctly hear tho noiso that was
mado at tho top of tho shaft, but after
that time the nssuranco seemed to come
upon us hII that wo should never bo
taken out of the mlno alive. Tho reason
of this change of feeling was that so
many of us began to feel drowsy which
wo know must bo tho effect of Impure
air. After this wo qulto resigned our
selves to tho death which seemed cer
tain nnd went to work to mako our pre
parations to meet it. Wo hold a prayer
meeting, with singing and prnylng,and
at last wo gavo each other a parting
caress nnd thon each of us bid every
man nn affectionate farewell with tho
hopo of meeting ono another in heaven.
Wo of courso thought much of what
could bo done to attract tho attention of
tho mon outsldo who wo know were dol
ing all in their power to deliver us so
that wo might bo found as soon as poss
iblo and no tlmo bo lost In search of
traces of us. For this purposo ono man
was sont to tho gangway at tho foot of
tho cast shaft, who wroto with a plcco
of coal on tho outsldo of tho door of tho
cast gangway that wo had barricaded
ourselves behind it. You will excuso
mo, I know, from trying to remember
anything more, or from answering fur
ther just now. I am too weak, but as
soon ns I recover my strength I will bo
glad to recall and descrlbo In full detail
everything that occurred in tho mines.''
Tho excuso is tliatfiWion caused tho
firo, but wo havo soen no excuso offered
for thocuipablo carelessness that per
mitted friction to causo it. Last winter
a stringent law was passcil requiring
two air passages to each mine, except
where loss than 20 men wcro employed.
This exception is reprehensible, and
only gives tho operators and the mlno
Inspector a chanco to permit tho viola
tion of tho law. In this case, more than
that number of men were omployed,
and tho inspector was aware of all tho
facts, as ho admits that ho several times
examined tho mine. An officer who is
specially appointed and paid to enforco
bucIi n Just and humano law as this and
neglects to perform his duty, deserves
to be held as responsible for tho lives of
tho men ns though ho had deliberately
caused tho fire. In any coso prompt
measures should bo taken to enforco
tho law. If It Is not dono thcro will bo
more sucli disasters, and they will con-
tinuo until tho law is enforced.
A Hugo Monopoly i
It is stated that under tho modest
name of tho Laurel Bun Improvement
Company.tho lato Legislature chartered
a company of most inordinato dimen
sions and powers, by which tho'.Itcad
log Railroad company obtains control
of 00,000 to 70,000 acres of tho most val
uable coal lands in Schuylkill, Colura
bla and Northumberland counties. As
tho sarao company already owns all tho
railroads traversing theso localities with
tho exception of n singlo branch, their
power over tho entire region in futuro
seems to bo complete. This is tho most
calamitous of all tho results of the late
striko,as lis lnllucnco will bo perpetual.
All individual operators and small
companies will bo compelled to sell out
to this mammoth concern or yield
obedience to its wishes, and tho Coal

Fourth. All vacancies in tho said
Stato Exccutivo Commltteo shall bo

After somo struggling, Wm. A. Wat,
i.ace, of Clearfield, was elected Chair
man of tho Stato Committee, by a voto
of 89 to SO for Wm. M. Randall, of
Schuylkill, Tho nominees wore then
introduced to tho Convention, who
spoko ns follows :
C.ipt. Cooper, tho nomlneo for Sur
veyor General, said that ho hnd always
recognized tho orders of his superior
officer; and as Gen. McCnudless had
asked hlinlo speak first ho would do
tho best ho could. IIo wns no spcceli
maker, and therefore, would content
himself with tho grnlchil duty of re
turning his sincere thanks to tho Con
vention for tho honor conferred upon
him, nnd ho was now ready to go tt
work and achlovo a vlclory tit tlio polls,
which ho had no doubt would bo tho
result in October next.
General McCandless said hojolncd his
comrade, Capt. Cooper, with nil his
heart In returning his slnccronntl heart
felt thanks for tho honor tho Conven
tion had conferred upon them both, by
making them tho standard bearers of
tho great Democratic party in this Com
monwealth during tho campaign Just
Inaugurated a contest for the supre
macy of tho great party to which ho
was proud to belong. It is truo that
Capt. Cooper and himself had gono
through campaigns on qulto another
Held of warfare, wlioro thoy had poured
out their blood like water In defeneo of
tho supremacy of tho laws and Consti
tution of their common country, but,
oven in thoso trying times, thoso cam
paigns wcro not as important, or so vl
tal to tho liberties of tho pooplo ns tho
contest now oponcd before them, when
by Federal encroachments, through n
prolllgato Congress, they wcro threaten
ing the very citadel of our liberties.
IIo said : I seo boforo mo tho repre
sentatives of nt least n quarter of nmill
ion of freemen of this State. I fcco bo
foro mo nn army of wlilto freemen who
aro advancing to grapplo with thoso
living issues that, llko principles, aro
eternal.
It is but a week slnco I stood in thoso
halls and heard tho annunciation, from
tho lips of my opponent, Dr Stanton,
of a chargo which was a blander upon
tho pure nnd patriotic men who had
perilled ovcrythlng to defend their
country in her hour of need. But such
.statements need no other refutation
than tho fact that both ills colleague,
Captain Coopor, and himself wcro hero
against whoso characters no longuo of
slander daro wag, for their record is
spotless In all the relations of cltlzons
or soldiers. IIo commended tho action
of Governor Geary In his rcbuko to the
administration nnd to tho Radical party,
when lie, tho Governor, took ground
against tho Federal interferenco of tho
aencral Government in tho elections of
tho peaceful citizens of Philadelphia
Inst Fall, and said tliat theso usurpa
tions had becomo so glaring that oven n
Governor of tho great State of Penn
sylvania had to minister n rebuko to
them in tho hopo of staying tho ten
dency of that party to centralization of
power and tho establishment of mili
tary despotism in this country. After
again thanking tho Convention for tlio
high- honor conferred upon him, ho re
tired, amid tho applause of tho mem
bers of tho Convention, who were vo
ciferous in their demonstrations of ap
probation of tho General's remarks.
After which tho Convention on mo
tion adjourned sine die.
European Sens,
Tho monsters who havo had control
of Paris over slnco tho downfall of NA-
I'Oleon havo at lengtli boon subdued,
after a mo3t bloody struggle A very
largo proportion of them wore killed
during tho contest and tho authorities
aro butchering tho rest without mercy.
Only tho humblest and least guilty
will bo suffered to escapo death. Bo
foro their final fall, however, thoy
wreaked their vengeanco upon religion
by executing tho Arch Bishop of Paris
and about GO priests and somo nuns, as
well as other reepectablo citizens. Thoy
also fired tho princlplo public buildings
and private houses, and for sovoral days
fired shells filled with petroleum. About
ono-thlrd of tho city is In ruins nnd nil
of it is much injured. General Vinoy,
upon whom tho Insurgents hnd pro
nounced death, has been appointed Mil
itary Governor of Paris and all parts of
tho city are occupied by troops.
Tho next step for tho ficklo French
men to take is to form a more perma
nent government. What form it may
evontually lako Is now not apparent
and a half a dozen plans may bo tried
before ono becomes permanent, though
violent outbreaks are scarcely lo bo fear
ed after tho recent terrlblo examplo of
bloodshed and starvation. Our own
judgmontls tliat tholr only cholco Is bo-
tween a military dictator und NAi'OL-
eon. But if they can do anything better
tho friends of popular government
would rejolco.
In tho last of tho fighting, In tho "In
fected" districts no quarter was given
nnd men, women nud children were
killed Indiscriminately, until tho last
Insurgent hand surrendered. At tho
last advlcos executions were proceed
ing at threo different points In tho city,
whoro fifty lo ono hundred Insurgents
aro shotata time. Tho National Guards
aro all being disarmed that i3,ariiisaro
being taken from all persons who do
not belong to McMahon's army, Mul
tltudosof peoploaro under arrest, and
nononro permitted to leave Paris with
out a pass. Up to this tlmo more than
60,000 insurgonts havo heon killed. Fow
cap escape, ns nono of tho governments
around Franco, will glvo them quurtors.
Tho destruction of the entire body
seems to bo Inevitable, as only tho few'
who can conceal themselves or got on
ship board can escape. Tholr fato is a
torriblo ono, yet who can say it is not
deserved? Thoy aro murderers who
fought to destroy everything that is
Kood.

Tin: editor of tha Bnlleronto HWcA
man, who was at llarrlsburgat tho time,
says that or tho ono hundred and thirty
delegates who composed tho Radical
Stato Convention, but forty-six were not
offlco-holders. Tho notorious Bunii, of
Philadelphia," was prominent In thu
body, nnd Quay, Simon Cameron's
henchmau, controlled tho concern in
tho intercstof Iilsmastcr. Wagousollor,
who somo years ago, with Lobo and
Mancar, betrayed himself for n prico to
Cameron, was also on hand to do tho
bidding of ids old "friend." It Is said
that tho ono man power was novcr more
fully exemplified. Wo havo an nbldlng
faith that tho pcopio of this Slnto will
rcfuso to bo longer governed by Simon
Cameron's corrupt "ring."
Tin: last Weekly Gazelle imdJlitttd in
gives tho particulars of n series of fires,
In Wllliamsport. Tho first was mi old
houso occupied by two families, known
ns tho Ross property, which was entire
ly consumod. It belonged to tho widow
of tho lato Judgo G ittnit, and was high
ly reverenced by her hecuno it was tho
houso in which sho wns bom. Tho
next firo destroyed threo buildings on
Mulberry street, north of tho P. & E.
Railroad. Ouo of tho buildings was
used as a chair factory nnd a considera
ble amount of work was lost. Tlio
other two wcro occupied by families.
Tho next nnd Jast firo reported was a
frame building on Washington street,
ownod by S. Ulman. Tho flames, how
ever, were extinguished before much
damago was dono. Muncy, Williams
port, Jersey Shore nnd Lock Haven
havo all.suffercd mora or less by fires
during tlio last ten days. Muncy Lum
inary, aoit tilt.
Tur. present exccutivo was tho first
in tho history of tho country to furnish
tho shameless examplo of accepting
gifts or bribes. Prior to ills Inaugura
tion a $00,000 house and lot was pur
chased and donated to him ; nnd, when
ho camo to mako up his cabinet, thu
principal donator and orlgiuntor of tho
"gift enterprise" was nominated for
head of tho treasury department. Pub
lic patronago has becomo nn nrliclo of
commercp, nnd is under tho manage
ment of thoso at Washington who con
trol tho political stock exchange Ed
itors of newspapers aro appointed to
lucrative places in consideration of de
fending tho lawlessness and corruptions
of tlio administration, Thcro Is every
reason to fear that unless tho pcopio be
como speedily aroused to tho dangers
that must flow from such poisoned foun
tains, nnd when opportunity offers,
sweep from power the usurpers and
corruplionists who defllo tho places
onco occupied by patriotic statesmen.
tho opportunity ol peaceful moans or
redress will havo passed forever from
their hands.
The Kuklux bill is likely to become
a big elephant on tlio hand of tho Rad
ical party. They havo it, but what to
do with it is tlio question. If not used,
no good will eotno to tho organization.
They will net nil tho kicks and nono of
the pennies. In tho way of its applica
tion stands tho protest of Radical Gov
ernors nnd Senators In tho South, who
openly nnd positively declaro that tho
civil authorities aro abundantly ablo to
tako c.iroof tho pcopio of tliat section
Moro than ono Radical paper In tho
North has also denounced this bill and
Its object. Tho Chicago Tribune, tho
loading Radical organ in tho Northwest,
says: "As lo tho Kuklux bill, it Is by
no moans certain that tlio noxt Repub
lican National Convention will cudorso
it. Moreover, it will havo expired by
limitation boforo tlio noxt Presidential
election takes place," This is tho tono
of many of tho Radical organs. Thoy
look upon tho bill ns a part of tlio Ma
chinery to bo used to ronominnjo and
ro elect General Grant, and do not think
tho "gamo worth tlio caudlo." In tho
meantime, tho pooplo nro becoming bet
ter acquainted with tho infamous pro
visions of tho Ku-Klux bill, anil their
opposition Is becoming moro general'
anil Intense', Bad men dig pits and fall
Into then), Bays tho Good Book, and
such will bo tho fatoof tho Radical party
with bonio of tholr political Bchoines.

1. My Dear Sir: 1 havo yourH of tho

gard to our political futuro, I must
respond In great hasto. I trust nover
Jienceorth to bo nn nspiraut feir any
ollleo or political position wlie.tovorj
but I fully purpose, also, novor to do
cllno any duty or responsibility which
my political friends shall seo lit! to do
vol vo upon mo, nnd of which I almll bo
ablo to fulfill tho obligations without
neglecting older nnd moro imperntlvo
duties, I havo not yet formed a decid

bo our noxt Republican candid uto for
I'residotit, but It seems to uio mlvlwiblo
that ho should bo n steadfast, consistent
believer in tlio good old Whig doclrlnu
fo Ono Presidential Term,
JIOIIAUISUIIEELY.
This is n positive) declaration ngalnst
(ho rcnonilnntlon of Gen. Giiant. Tho
absurdity of Mr, GitEELY's candidacy
Was more thnn matched by tho election
of Lincoln. But ono such nonsensical
experiment ought to, prevent a recur-
