Tho Convention.
Tlio Democratic county convention
assembled at tho Court House on Friday,
and Its proceedings oro Riven In full lu
another column. Tho voncrablo Stk
then HAliDY presided. Kvcry dis
trict was fully represented. Tlio tick
et nominated Is a good one, and every
man on It Is well qualified to fulfil tho
duties of tho ofllco for whlcl) ho is nom
inated, but as most of tho candidates
aro personally better known to tho
Domocratsof tho county than to tho
editor, wo will not at present spoak of
them individually.
Most of tho nominations wcro in ail o
by largo majorities, nearly all having
been decided by tho pcoplo at tho ilclo
irato elections, and excepting a llttlo
fiasco near tho closo of tho convention,
tho utmost harmony provnllcd. Strong
and earnest feelings lu favor of a can
didato will sometimu lead men to do
what they will regret in cooler mo
incuts, but it is hoped that at this tlmo
every Democrat will consider tho Inter
eats of Ills party as paramount to overy
other consideration. Thcso Interests
lust now aro concentrated In UNION
and overy disturber of harmony Is suro
to Injure his own cause. .
ijook ai tuo tlcicetl Who will any
there Is a man oh It who Is not eminent
ly qualified? Who will impoach tho
Democracy of anyono? Who questions
tlio personal Integrity or respectability
of any ono ? All aro qualified, all aro
raitiirul Democrats, all aro deserving,
all good neighbors and clover men, all
aro patriotic ana lovo their country.
All have boon fairly nomlnatod, and all
uoservo unanimous support. Party in
(crests demand that this support should
bo unanimous, and ihorcforo let all per
sonal questions bo postponed until
another time.
To tho defeated, wo would say, bido
your tlmo. Though not successful now
you may bo at Bomo other period. Ho
Is lacking in manhood who cannot stand
a defeat without whining about It. Tho
uusv 01 men novo suuereu tnus, anu
when they descrvo woll they nro suro
to imvo their reward- If every dofcated
caiuliilato Is to defy his party and ills
ruptltwo will soon havo no party at
nil. No party can exist without union.
Without It party principles cannot bo
maintained, and without it usurpation,
corruption, swindling, oppression and
their concomitants, would run riot over
tho land. Tho common causo therefore
requires all to stand firmly in support
of all tho nominations. Lot tho Until
cals tako care of themselves and do tho
best thoy can, but lot no Democrat help
tiem.
Somo Inconvonionco having been ex
perienced In working the old plan of
instructing delegates, tho convention,
by a unanimous vote, adopted a new
ruloin tho nature of a substitutofor tho
plan of instructions, which will apply
to nil .future dclegato elections. It is
an important rulo which will extend
tho principle or tho Cth rulo in regard
to selecting delegates to tho voting on
all tho offices at tho primary elections.
so that a candidate receiving a part of
tho voto In any district will commonly
got a share ot tho district voto in con
vention. Union and Ilarinonj.
Now that tho nominations aro made,
and an excellent tlckot is inscribed upon
tlio Democratic Banner, let overy faith
ful and slnccro Democrat at onco bend
ids energies to urge UNION and HAR
MONY as tho crowning essential of
success! With union and good will pro
vailing our ranks wo can carry tho
State if wo carry tho State this year
wo can carry tho Nation next year. AH
depends upon union now, in order that
all effort may bo concentrated against
tlio common foe. Whoever disturbs the
harmony of the party now, directly aids
the Radicals! Let every Democrat,
therefore, inculcato union and harmony
as tho best and most patriotic act ho
can do for his country, his party ond
himself. Arouso to action, prepare for
victory sccuro overy voto posslbloand
bo suro to bring out overy voter. From
this tlmo until tho election let every
Democrat consider himself a commltteo
of vigllancd specially appointed to pro
mato tho best interests of his country
and his party. Let all strifo and bick
ering, if any exists, bo promptly dis
countenanced and frowned down, .Wo
appeal to every Democrat at this tlmo
fo yield everything to tho public good.
Making Great Men.
Tho business of manufacturing great
men out of small material first Intro
duced from tho West is becoming
qulto common, So common, indeed,
that It Is becoming a nuisance.
Tho sensation papers of the cities
Herald, World, Ac, of Now York, nnd
JVess, Inquirer, &c, of Philadelphia
havo such characters as George Francis
Train, Wm. Cornoll Jowott, 4c, who
aro kept In constant bay, but why they
aro mado prominent will puzzle any
brain into which senso Is admitted.
Then our Pennsylvania crones aro con
stantly clacking about Alex. Mo
Ciaiiie, a plnhook politician who has
no other importance or significance
than that of being a boy of all work for
Gov. Cuiitin and tho Harrisburg 1'a
Mot sets up a real or imaginary green
frog of tho pond It 'yclepts Quay,
but who or what ho Is or whero from,
it leaves tho public in delightful ignor
nnco. Now pray tell us gentlemen,
what is tho uso In alt that? Do you
not debauch Journalism by stooping to
such nonsense?
Every pig-headed Ignoramus, in these
days, who succeeds in working his way
Into tho Legislature, wants himself
snouted with tho titlo Hon., while nlno
tcnths of them havo no moro concep
tion of Its signification than a pig lias
of Its blood relations. Buch titles at
best aro but an absurd aping after aris
tocratic' titles, and if tho downward
career is further pursued, It will soon
becomo fashionable to apply It to town
ship officers and perhaps to hotel wait
ers and all others serving somebody
olso. Tho newspapers aro responsible
for all this, for not ono of tho gentry
would glvo a snap for tho tlllo If lie
could not seo It in print.
Nor would any of tho ulylo of great
men wo refer (o bo known beyond tho
length of a ten-foot polo were It not for
newspaper puffery nowspapcr debase
ment. The Prohibition Stato Convention
has nominated Badh Si'Anulkii, of
Lancaster, for Auditor General, and E.
A. Wheeler, of Mercer, for Surveyor
General. The candidates havo accepted
the nominations. Will tbey "Mick?"
Etluratlon In Pcntisylranlfl.
With I ho Impudence and greedy char
acteristics of tho race, yunkoa land
claims tho snlo credit or establishing
and driving forward tho causa of popu
lar education. So far ns Pennsylvania
Is concerned this claim lias not tlio least
foundation, Education was pressed by
every government this Stato over had
that of Ponn, tho Colonial revolution
ary authority ond tho State. Our con
stitutions havo always contained a
clauso making popular education obllg
atory. Tho Governors of German
blood, Snvdek, Sciiultze nnd Wolf,
wcro most persistent in urging tno es
tabllshmcnt of public or common
schools. Through tho official and per
sonal influcnco of tho latter tho first
common school law In this Stato was
adopted. It was first materially mi
proved under tho administration of
Gov. lttTNEn, another of tho German
stock. Hon. J ess u Milleu, Stato Su
pcrlntcndcnt under Gov. Skunk, (tho
next succeeding Governor of German
descent) If wo mlstnko not, was tho first
Stato official to urgo tho adoption of tho
County Supcrlntcndoncy. Tho greatest
strldo of all In Improvement was mndo
under tho administration or Gov. mu
Msrt, another Governor of German do
scent. Then tho County Supcrlotcn
dency was established, tho teachers oc.
cupation became a rocogul.cd proles
elon, tho school term was extended, tho
law was rendered thoroughly ofllclont,
tho foundation for Normal Schools was
laid, and such general Improvement
and advancement was mado as was
never effected beforo or since.
It has becomo tho fashion lately for
school orators to Insinuate and even
aver that tho progress of 1831 was pat.
tcrned after or suggested by Now Eng.
land examples. Instead of this being
true, wo happen to know nnd can tcs
tlfy that all New England examples
and Ideas wcro careruliy excluded anil
avoided, anil our Wcstorn, Canadian
and European systems nlono wore re
gardedbut practically and substan.
tlallyour own experience, thoclmrao
tor and wants of our people, nnd tho
other conditions then existing In our
midst, controlled tho wholo subject nnd
established tho progress of that day.
Tho editor of tho Columbian has ncv
cr been very particular about thunder
orthat sort, nnd therefore hns never
vindicated tho authors of tho act of 1SJ1
when others appropriated tho credit
duo to them, but somo times this joke
Is carried rather far. Iteccntly an ora
tor (In Northampton county, wo bo
Hove) declared with ailourish of trump
ets, and In his presence, wo Inferred,
that to Prof. J. P. Wickersiiam be
longed more credit than to nny other
man, living or dead, for tho successful
establishment and progress of Common
Schools in this Stato. Now, tho Pro-
fessorisa gentleman to whom wo ac
cord high honor ; a successful teacher,
ono or tho most efficient or County Su
perintendents, under whom and by
whom tho first Stato Normal School In
this Commonwealth was established,
and who has mado a crcdltablo Stato
Superintendent, efficiently executing
tho laws and plans heretofore establish
ed by others. That much Is his duo.
Wo aro not objecting to any amount of
honor being piled upon his head, even
though it should pierce tho heavens,
but wo do object to tlio ignoring of men
who havo deserved well or their coun
try and to tlio honors belonging to them
being piled upon tho heads or others tn
whom thoy do not belong.
Wo beliovo that wo havo tho most ef
ficlent public school system in Pennsyl
vania that exists in America, nnd to
our Govcrnorsof German blood belongs
tho credit or establishing It.
A Itadical Muss.
Everybody at nil concerned In tho
payment or Federal taxes, knows how
keenly the pcoplo havo been oppressed
by the tyrannical decisions or tho Com
mlssloner or Internal Revenue No
matter what tholaw,tho Commissioner
always decided in such manner as would
tako tho largest sum rrom the pocket of
tho tax-pnycr, and tho moro of this ho
could put Into tho pockets of his subor
dinates, pimps and Informers, tho bet
ter ho seemed to llko it. In fact tho
jJtovcnuo ofllco at Washington was
mado a perfect instrument or robbery
and plunder a leech that careruliy es
timated tho amount or blood his victim
contained and then sucked to tho last
drop and squeezed his carcass after
wards. By tho promotion or Delano
to a cabinet position tho ofllco was va
cated, and by a fortunato incident tho
President appointed Gen, Pleahanton,
one of his military friends, to tho posi
tion, who possessed somo or tho old
military prldo of honor. Tho public
wcro soon surprised by a series or sen
siblo decisions, tho first eminatlng rrom
that department which respected tho
law or gavo It senslblo construction,
and tho first that were so plain that
they could bo generally understood.
The Secretary or tho Treasury attcmpt
etTto ovcr-rulo thebo, but tho Commis
sioner maintained his position nnd do-
nled tlio power ol tho Secretary. Tho
Cabinet was appealed to and sustained
tho thieving Secretary, or courso. Pres
ident Grant yielded to thom and ap
pointed ono or Cameron's pet thloves
to the ofllco or Commissioner.
But hero comes tho tug or war I Got).

dilemma but an appeal to tho Senate,
not now In session, and tho discussion
of tho subject In which Is dreaded. If

J B. On last Tuesday, President
Grant returned unexpectedly to Wash

rrom ofllco, ana then took thocars again

Tho policy of extortion will therefore
bo continued whllo Grant's adminis

Federal troops aro being quietly
soni 10 nil parts of tho South by Gen
Grant. This is tho woy hooxpectsto
lorco a rrnomination nnd ro-olcctlon,
Tho IVcsliuorclniiil Senatorial District.
Tho Democracy of tho Senatorial tils,
trie t, composed of tho counties of West
morelitnd nnd Indiana havo unanl
mously nominated Hon. J Aeon Tun
nky for thu Stato Senate. Mr. T. here
tofore sorved ono term, with great
credit to himself and ndvantngo to tho
pcoplo of tho Stato. As chairman of
tho Flnanco commltteo of that body ho
saved thousands of dollars to tho peo
pic. os wo know from personal knowl
edge, and In other ways ho was always
vigilant and clllclcnt in prelecting tho
Treasury from tho robbers who nnmi
ally collect nbout tho Legislature. A
caso In point: wo saw Tuiinev on tho
floor of tho Scnalo making a speech
against nn unconditional nnd preclpl
tnto repeal or tho Canal board, after tho
public works had been sold. Whllo on
tho floor, Judge Strickland, ono of
tho board, Informed him that his col
leagues were about passing n resolution
to allow a fraudulent claim or $5,000 to
Alex. White, brother or Mr. Tun
ney'h present competitor. Mr. T. nt
onco stated tlio fact to tho Scnato, with
drew his opposition to tho repealing
hill and In hair an hour it was signed
by Gov. Packer nnd was a law. Tho
robbery nover was consummated. But
this is only ouolnslaiico amongst ninny
that ho throttled tho plunderers within
our own observation.
Mr. Turney was elected Speaker of
tho Scnato at a tlmo when It was sup
posed Gov. Packer's death wns mo-
mentarily probable Although that
melancholy contingency did not hap
pen, tho circumstance abundantly
proves tho conildcnco tho Democratic
Senators felt In tho ability anil Integrl
ty of Mr. Turney. His term expired
In 1SC0, nnd wo beliovo ho has never
been in Harrisburg sinco, n most extra
ordinary and honorable circumstance,
showing ho had no scores to scttlo up.
A feature of this nomination wo
would commend to our friends every
where. Both of tho counties of the
district presented candidates. Tho ills
trlct has a Republican majority. Tho
nominees of tho respective counties
wcro withdrawn without n ballot In
order to permit tho strongest man In
tho district to bo nominated, upon
whom tho nomination was then confer
red without a ballot. A man of the
highest fitness and Integrity wns thus
selected.. May tho example provo n
fruitful one.
Although tho district is Republican
wo havo strong hopes of Mr. Turkey's
election 1 Tho high personal esteem In
which ho is Justly held throughout the
State, his tried lutcgrity and acknowl
edged fitness ought to elect him any
whero, and when poised against Har
ry White, notorious for his connec
tions with legislative rings, there ought
scarcely to be a question in n district
llko Westmoreland and Indiana, mado
up mostly of honest men.
Stanton's Military Itcconl.
The Democratic papers havo tried In
vain to drlvo (ho Radical leaders Into
giving tho military history of Dr.
Stanton. Where did ho render ser
vlco of nny character ? Was ho ever
on a field or battle, over In care of
wounded, or oven in charge or an as
sistant at a military hospital? Is it
truo that ho was only a contract sur
geon a medical Suttler? In short,
Ii03 ho a military history at all ? If bo
has why don't his friends give tho pub
lic tho benefit or it? Certainly when
men nro put forward on Military
grounds tho public ought to bo inform
ed or all tho particulars or their servico.
tY o do not know that a Sultlcr, especially
ii medical Sutler, has nny special claim
upon tho gratltudo or tho country. If
Stanton was any thing else, why is
his history not given? Perhaps that
Is truo which wo havo all along re
garded ns a slander, viz : that ho was a
mero lo.ifer about northern cities,
drawing tho pay or a Colonel, but per
forming no duties. In tho absenco of n
history or his acts, tho suspicion Is
strong that this charge Is true.
As to Heath, all that tho public
know of him Is that ho was a Lieuten
ant or a company of darkles and Is now
In tho employ of tho coal operators. He
does not seem to havo won distinction
In either position, ns no record of his
exploits is given to tho public.
Tho Democrats long ago gavo n .full
history of tho military career or their
candidates.
Elections.
Kentucky, Tho Democrats have
cloctcd their Governor and Stato ticket
by about 110,000 majority, and nearly all
tho members of tho Legislature. Two
years ago their majority was 70,000.
Thodecrcaso In majority Is owing to
tho fact that at this election tho negroes
wore allowed to voto for tho first tlmo.
Tho Democratic voto was Increased,
and not diminished, hut tlio Radical
press attempt to croato n contrary Im
pression. North Carolina. An election wns
held In North Carolina to detcrmino
whether n-convention should bo called
to alter tho Stato Constitution, with n
view to reforms looking to the ro-estab-llshmrnt
of tho power of tho pcoplo
over tholr own domestic offalrs. Of
courso tho Radicals opposed It. Tho
Federal government threatened armed
Interference should tho convention car
ry. Under theso circumstances, many
Democrats also opposod tho conven
tion. Tho result is in doubt.
Massachusetts. In this rotten old
Stato, Ben. Butler Is creating qulto
a muss by an attempt to obtain tho
Radical nomination for Governor and
yet threatening to run whether ho Is
nominated or not. Tho fight between
Bon, and tho Codfish aristocracy is bo
coming very bitter. Massachusetts
loves meanness, and It Is therefore dir
ficult to tell who will win.
