Dkleoatks to tho Convontlon will do us a great fnvor nnd expedite their own proceedings If thoy will roport their names to this olllco at tho cntllowt posslblo moment, eo that wo may print slips for tho uso of tho Convontlon.

Tho Democratic dclegato elections In Columbia county tako placo to-morrow afternoon and tho Convention will as somblo at tho Court Ilouso, in Blooms burg, on Tuesday noxt, at 1 o'clock, p. in. Tho plain duty to bo performed is tho nomination of it ticket to bo sup ported by tho Democracy at tho ensu' Ing election, and In this regard a mis tako can scarcely bo mado as all tho candidates announced aro represented to bo capablo and of good character. Thoy havo been boforo tho public for somo timo and tho pooplo havo had amplo opportunity to mako up their minds as to which thoy prefer. Wo BUpposo that most of tho nominations , will bo settled by instruction. For Coroner and Auditor no candi dates havo been announced. Tho for mer Is of but little conscqucnco and might as well bo dlsponsod with. Tho latter offlco is Important and ought to bo filled by a good business man and nccur.ito accountant. No doubt such can bo found who will occopt anamina tion. For olllces for which candidates havo been announced, It is to be noped that tho Convontlon will find no difficulty In making suitable) selections from tho list as published. It has an unfavora bio nppoaranco for candidates to como up on tho day of tho Convontlon and by dint of personal oflbrt and appeals to dolcgatos obtain nominations for olllces for which others havo been announced 03 candidates but for which no instruc tions wero given becauso not oponly contested. It is unfair and detracts from tho respect duo tho other nomi nations, Is always open to bo looked up on with suspicion and puts tho parly upon explanation that is unploasant if not damaging. Wohopo It Is unnecessary to Incui cato union and harmony, good-wlll, every thing for tho causo, nothing for men. Dclegato Elections. To-morrow afternoon tho Democratic dclegato elections aro to bo hold In tho soveral districts of Columbia county. Wo reiterate tho hope that all Demo crats will attend them and express their desires, and that thoy will elect nono but firm and rcliablo Intelligent men as delegates. Lot the best ticket be nom inated that Is posslblo under the circum stances. When tho nominations are inado it is hoped all will give them a cordial support, that tho whom energies of tho party may be directed to the general causo and to tho Increase of tho Democratic voto of tho county. Jf the Slate is 'secured from the Radicals this fall the election of a Democratic Presi dent in 1872 is ha(f secured. Columbia county ought to havo a full sharoin this rescuo. Tho Democratic majority of tho county can bo incroasod if thoro is no local difficulty or division. Let all, thereforo, resolve lnadvanco to sup port tho ticket, that all trouble in that regard may bo out of tho way, and that overy Democrat may feel clear to put forward every effort to increase the majority. It is clear that any ono who nttcmpts to creato disunion and discord at such timo as this, cares moro for somo selfish purposo than for tho success of tho party, and If ho is heeded at all it should bo with reprehension. When tho Judgment of tho party, as to who shall bo tho candidates, is onco pro nounced, every Democratic voter must yield ready acquicscenco In tho decision or become a disturber of harmony. Tho Issue is both plain and inevitable. Who ever, therefore, desires to promoto tho interests of tho party will support the nominees with 6norgy and good will, in order that harmony may prevail and strength may bo fully developed und exercised, To Judges and Clerks of the Delegate Elec tions. Wo havo printed und furnished for distribution to all tho districts or the county election blanks which if tilled up In a proper manner will avoid all mlbtakes and sccuro correct returns. An election blank for each district Is sup plied, on ono sldo headed "List of Voteks," under which iho names of till voters at tho election can bo written down as in ordinary practice. Tho op posltosldo of tho sheet is headed, Tai, lv-Pai-eii, on which all tho tickets will bo scored or tallied when counted off at tho end of tho election. Tho tally paper, howovcr, contains two forms, ono or which only will be used or lltieu up, when but ono sot or delegates shall bo run in a district, and both when two seta shall run. Whenever two delegato tickets shall bo run it will bo necessary to tally thera separately, with tho In Ktructlons on each sepnrato also, and for this tho blauk forms fully provldo. Tho olcctlon officers will find In tho first form u blank space for tho names of del egatcson tho tickets voted by ono party or division of tho voters, and under ucath, blank spaces for tho Instructions on the same ticket. Tho second form below, has blank spaces for tho names of a second Bet of delegates, (if such shall bo run,) and for tho instructions given to them, lly the rules, dolcgatos can bo Instructed only by tho voters who vote for them, and consequently as del egates on ono of tho tickets run cannot bo Instructed by voters who voto a diff erent ticket, tho tally of tho two kinds of ticket must bo kept soparato. Whon however, but ono ticket for delegates Is run, of courso but ono of tho forms for tallying will bo used, and a simple ma Jorltyof all tho votes cast will Instruct tho delegates chosnn. Theso election papcrs.or similar ones, must bo returned to tho Convention, as required by tho rules. Uy tho Glh rulo of nominations II Is provided that tho eleo lion nfllccrs "shall keep n list of voters and tally of voles counted, to bo sont by them to tho Con vention wllh their certificate of tho re sult of tho election j" and by tlio IRtli rulo It Is further provided, that "all In structions shall bo reported by the elec tion officers." A Suggestion. EDITOR OF TIIH COI.UMIIIAN ! It will bo posslblo to oxtond tho prlnciplo upon which delegates aro elected to tho voting for all candidates proposed for nomination. Tho present rules do not provldo for this, but allow tho old plan of Instructions to continue, Provldo Ihat tho pooplo, besldo elect ing delegates as now, voto directly for candidates In tho soveral districts, ond that candidates shall havo dclegato or district votes reported for them In Con vention In proportion to tho popular voto thoy havo received. On this plan tho district votes so allotted will lo equal In number to tho number of dele gates or tho samonumbcr and candi dates can get them by popular voting In tho samo way-and to tho samo extent that they can now gel delegates. Tho dilllcutty now Is that you cannot very well havo moro than one issuo in elect ing delegates, whereas thoro may bo half a dozen to decide at tho election and thoy ought all to bo decided on tho samo principle. Our rulo for electing delegates Is admlrablo for deciding a contest between candidates for one olllce, but candidates for other olllces arc still loft to a great cxtont uudcr tho old sys tem. Now sjy that In Contro township, (which has threo dolegatos), A. has t!0 votes and B. 40, for somo ofllcc, at tho delegato election. Then, when Ccntro Is called in Convontlon, her voto would bo reported and counted two for A. and ono for B. This voto by districts would bo something liko tho voto by States in National Conventions, would bo entire ly convenient and workablo and tho pooplo could thus divide their district voto upon all tho olllces as thoy can now divide their delegates upon ono. If a candldato had a majority of all tho district votes, reported as above, he would bo nominated without further proceedings, but if a nomination should not thus bo effected tho Convention would go on and nominate, delegates however regarding tho votes given In their districts until candidates thero voted for shall bo dropped under tho rulo. This plan would bo widely different from tho Crawford county plan of pop ular voting for candidates, and would not produco Its bad results. It would give freo play to popular cholco without Inciting to fraud and would give com plete operation to tho Just prlnciplo of tho froo voto In nominations, whilo It would retain a well-constituted Con ventlon for nil tho necessary work to bo performed by It. , Bv tho 6th rulo of nominations, vo ters at tho dclegato elections may voto for delegates In tho manner provided in tho 4th section of tho Bloomsburg act of 4th March, 1870. Tho nppllcablo parts of that 4th section confer upon n voter tho right to voto as follows : "When two persons aro to bo chosen, ho may giva ono voto to each of two candidates, or two votes to one. When threo persons aro to bo chosen, ho may give ono voto to each of threo candidates, two votes to ono candldato and one to another, ono voto and a-half to each of two candidates, or three votes to one. When four persons aro to bo chosen, ho may glvo ono voto to each of four candidates, ono voto and ono-third to each of three, two votes to each of two, or four votes to ono." P. Laws, 1870, p. 3 11. Tliaddues Stevens and munition. If any laurols rest on tho brow of Tiiaddues Stevens, "or any othor man," It would bo a reprchen9lblo act to tear thctu away or abstract a slnglo leaf. Tho pretence, however, that ho ever distinguished himseirin tho causo or education or common schools, is a hollow ono. In 1834, Gov. Wolv. (of solid Pennsylvania German stock. Which has given to tho Slato so many of its best Governors) mainly by his personal miluenco nnd weight of char- actor, Induced the Legislature to pass a common school law. In 1835 an attempt was made to pass a bill to repeal tho law, which would havo been successful oxcopt for Gov. WoLP'sstern announce ment that ho would veto it if passed. On that occasion Thaddues Stevens ttuon nn obscure antlmasonlc member of tho Legislature from Adams county) mado a speech against tho repeal . Upon this speech his whole reputation ns a menu oi education and common schools is based not by Mr. Stevens himself out by political clackcrs. Phis short speech is ofton referred to in grondilo quent terms but seldom published. It is a common place affair, equalled by a largo per contago of school boy declama- lions, anu is In no sense a pretentious or exhaustive argument In favor either oi euucatlonor of common m-hnnl in fact, no man was over more over. puueu than Mr. Stevens. Ho novcr served in any body In which ho was not overtopped by others, unlcs tlio lladi- uii rump uongrcssboan exception. In luu vyunsmuuonal Convention nf maa ho ranked ns an Inferior member, who was seldom observed In debato by tho ablo men of that body. Ho was not a statesman, but nbold nnd reckless poll tlclan. Ho never was a leader In a body whero tho majority comprised ablo men. His anti-masonic vagaries wero of tho weakest character, his adminis tration of the offlco of Canal Commis sioner of the Stnto will not bo defended by any honest man, and tho canal locks scattered through tho gorges or tho Al Icghcnles aro a perpetual monument to Ids roily. His capacity to lead a fanatl cal body was good: as ho was bold, reckless, Imperious and dictatorial, Ho was In no respect a man to bo set up as an uxamplo to the youth of tho land. Col. Chab. H. Shriner Indignantly denies that ho owes tho Government auy thing us Collector of Internal Hov enuo. Thoro oro others In Secretary IlouTWELL'fl list who deny the allega tlons mado against them, Tho Incom petenta at Washington no doubt blun dcr in this regard ns materially as thoy do in overy thing clso, and their btato ments, thereforo, aro wholly unreliable, THE COLUMBIAN Second Washington. Statesmen and Generals, about as. plonty ai blackberries, havo arisen from timo to timo who had tho vanity to as pirn to bo second WAHHtNdTON's, yet no ono has succeeded or como very near It. Tho fact Is as soon as nny man be comes, or ntlempls to become, an Inia- tornl nil, or anybody, ho ceases in no llko Wasiunoton, or lo bear any sem blance to htm, for the character of tho great American revolutionist, general nnd Btntesman, was tho opposite of nn Imitator In any thing. Grand, gravo, noble, ho was yet peculiar In all things, without eccentricity or affectation, as compared with nny model of his or any other ago, nnd ho will no doubt over ro main his own model, without a success ful Imitator.

Wo aro glad to welcomo such men to tho editorial chair in such times of timidity and tritJ, and wo hopo they will rccelvo as they do servo tho generous and efficient support of tho Democracy of Lycoming. The Butler Jlerald has been much enlarged and othonvlso Improved n!.d its namo changed to Ztegler's Demo cralio Jlerald. Wo havo several times hcrctoforo pointed to tho prevailing ovldcncc,cxhlbltod by tho enlargement and other improvement of its papers, of tho onward and upward progress of tho Democratic party Itself. Col. ZiEarvnn is well known to tho Democracy of tho State; and whatever distinction his paper has hcrotoforo acquired, wo know ho has tho nbllltv. to render it a still moro powerful champion of tlio causo If ho will apply himself ns his large dl mcnslons now glvo room. Tho wheel of fortuno has not latoly dealt kindly with tho Democracy but whenever if has taken n favorabloturn It was suro to turn "Undo Jako" to tho surface May it ever bo generous to him and cspeC' tally send him nbundnncc of cash sub scribcrs. Mr. Hiciiari) Stii.es, Assistant As sessor, appears beforo tho public with an attempted defence of tho Hovenue officers ngalnst tho Impeachment of their conduct by ItotiR McIIenrv, In his statement published two weeks ago. His defunco is weak nud slangy and does not touch tho main, substantial matter or accusation against him and others who wero concerned In tho per secution or Mr. McIIenrv. That accu sation, brought out with great distinct ness and forco by Mr. McHenry, (though in8imple,plaln language,) was, that after tho Kovenuo officers had col lected from him much moro than all that was duo lo tho government, they countenanced, Instigated nnd assisted in proceedings lor his prosecution and tho seizuro of his property, ror irregu larities which wero occasioned by tho fault or tho government itself in not appointing him a storekeeper after ho had demanded and was entitled to ono under tho law. That Is tho sovero and strong accusation mndoby McHenry, set out in full detail in his narrative, and it Is wholly untouched by Stii.es In his attempted defence. The Congressional Ku Klux commit tee has at length got through with the Job of taking testimony at tho South. Tho costly farce, which was got up to fabrlcato partisan material Tor tho Pres idential campaign, will utterly fail in its purpose. Tho peoplo understand tho situation or tho South, and do not mean to bo diverted rrom tho truo ls sues of tho coming election by nny clamor of sham "outrages," which Is intended to conceal tho corruption which notoriously exists In every Do partment, beginning with tho Wlilto House, where Jobbery Is as common as In Congress.

Instead of paying theso mon tiutty-iivo uouars per ion lor nay, ho purchased it directly from tho In dians at from nlno to cloven dollars. which may account for tho fact that at tlio camp uraut massacro, or ono hun dred and twontv-llvo Indians killed mostly squaws and chlldron nlnoty dead oodles wero round, cacli with a bundlo of hay at its sldo. Tho rom ov al of Gon. Stoneman is a dlsgraco to tho administration, nnd a lit illustra tion or Its Indian policy.
