Delegate Election, August 10th.
A WOUO TU DEMOCRATS.
Ou the 10th of August between three and
Bcven o'clock in the afternoon, delegates will
be chosen for the County convention which
meets on Tuesday the 13tb, at the Opera
House In llloonisbtirg.
There are several candidate! for each of
fice, and it therefore becomes necessary for
Democratic voters t make a choice, rsto
whom they wish noirinnted tor the offices to
be filled at the Fall election. So far as ive
know the candidates tiro all good men. Out
of so large a number, however, some must
be better than others,and in making a choice
those who have the best qualifications should
be selected. No man should be supported
who is incompetent to fill tlio office to which
he aspires, simply because he is a personal
friend, and no man who possesses the quali
fications of honesty, industry, and intelli
gence should be tacrificed becnuso of per
sonal feeling. Fublic officers are elected for
the good of the people,and nut for the bene
fit solely of the the officer, and the people
should therefore look out for their own in
terests by putting competent men in public
positions. We shall be satisfied with any
nominations that may be fairly made by the
party, believing that the voters who instruct
for the successful candidates will have con
sidered the claims of all parties, aud voted
for those whom they believe to be the best
for the positions.
DELEGATE TICKETS.
HOW TO USC THF.VI
The tickets for the delegate election have
been printed and placed in the hands of the
Chairman of the county committee for dis
tribution. The tickets contain blanks at the
top for the names of the proper number nf
delegates for each township. Voters should
write in the names of the delegates and the
number of vot"s given each one. For in
stance, if the district is entitled to four dele
gates, each voter can cast one vote for each
of them, two votes each for two of them or
four votes for one. If three delegates, each
can receive one vote.orone can receive three
votes. If two delegates each can receive one
Tote, or one can receive two. In each of the
above cases, leave out the names of a" ex
cept those voted for. At the head of the
list of candidates for each office will be
found instructions for rsing the ticket. For
Instance there are three candidates for Con
gress, and at the head is "strike out all but
one." For Repr-sentativ ?nd Cim
mlssloner, "strike out a" but two'' and so on
in each case m-.rking out with peu or pen
cil the names of aU except 'vose you w'sh
to instruct the delegates for. Attention to
these directions will save all difficulty and
confusion in the election.
There can be no cumulation on instruc
tions for emendates, each one being entitled
to only one vote. Cumulative voting 's ap
plied only in the 'ection of delegate
THE HOT WAVE
The blistering weather which lias been
prevalent receutly wastcaused by a hot wave,
starting in the west and coming gradu!"y on
us. All the large cities have suffcicd more or
less from it, and many deaths from sunstroke
are reported. In Ph''adelphia one thermom
eter indicated 105 degrees in the shade, and
another 108 degrees on the 18'V. In other
places it ranged from 08 to 103. In Illooms
burg on Thursday of last week it reached 102
and Friday 101, No cases of suns' -oke were
reported hero.
We have heard men say, " we have tried
both parties pnd found them failures."
This is not the truth. When the Democratic
party was in power before the war, who ever
heard of strikes in the mines, on railroads
and in the workshops? Whoever heard of
tramps by the thousand, hundred, fifties or
tens in the land ? Who ever heard of men
pleading for work or clamoring for bread t
Who ever heard of monopoly dictating to
labor and forcing the country into bank,
ruptcy? And why? Because the policy of
the party was to preserve a just equilibrium
between capital md labor and thus promote
the prosperity and security of both to pre
serve Intact the institutions of the country as
the fathers of the republic have made them.
But the desire for power became an over
mastering one, and politicians without hon
or or principle, sought by any and every
means however disreputable to attain it.
They'succeeded, and in the destruction of
the policies pursued alike by the old demo
crats and whigs, the Fandora box of politl-
? cal evils was opened, and from that day to
mis mere nas ueen noining out going irom
good to bad. and from bad to worse.
The Fitz John Porter case is developing a
new history of the second battle of Hull Run
both the Union and Confederate command
crs telling about the movements of their
own and other commands as seen by them-
elves. It will be a cause for rejoicing if
the result of this critical examination of the
Bull Run battle should be the vindication
of General Porter from the charges which
have, for so many years, blotted the record
of bis otherwise honorable career, as a sol
dier, but, whateyer the verdict may be, the
rehearing in bis case it likely to prove of
substantial value to history, The decision
of the present court martial, made up in all
calmness, should nettle forever not only the
present disputed questions as to General
Porter's acts and motives, but a great many
other questions connected with tbo manage
meat of the contending forces during th
fight.
Of the four National candidates for Con
gress already nominated in Michigan three
are ex-RepublicaDs. It is in tHs manner
that the Nationals prey upou tbo vitals of
the Democratic party, in strict accordance
with the predictions of our Republican
friends last spring,

Potter's fiiili-t'ominltfee's Work in Now
Orleans.
Nnw Orleans, July 23, Threo more of
Sherman's Intimidation witnesses have been
examined in New Orleans this week by the
sub-committee. Thirteen nf this clan nf
witnesses have been so far examined. Ten
havo voluntarily sworn that their affidavit,
used by the visiting statesmen to deceive tho
country and by the Returning Hoard to con
summate their villainous fraud, were com
plete forgeries in letter and in spirit. Three
of the twelve (Dula, Sweazle and Clarke)
havo been compelled to acknowledge that
they perjured themselves in every statement
iu their affidavits. Two oftheso threo are
wretches charged with murder and instigat
ing murder. They are in Government cm
ploy, and can only prosper with oiher scorn
drels provided far by II aye?. The other (Du
la) thought the revocation of hlspeiji'ry was
worth money. He had evidently been bribed
with promises to uphold it, but ho was forced
to expose h's own slanderous I'es. The
three witnesses who had made pflidavits in
187(1 and testified yesterday were Julius
Green, Howard Thornton, and Jnhu Lagar
dee. Julius Green, a Itiptlst preicher (col
ored), tust'fied in stibstauco that ho lived in
West Feliciana, end voted he Renubi'citii
tickc openly in 187G ,liat '''ere was a 'urge
voluntary movement of colo'ed voters to
join the Democratic pally, which he felt in
clined to follow ; that no inducement and no
compulsion influenced this movement, and
that colored Democrats conducted heir own
meetings, whilo colored orators addressed
them. After the election he was taken to
tho New Orleans Custom Housoby a Deputy
Marshal, and there induced to sign a paper
to satisfy some of his friends, who said it
would strengthen the Republican party. He
sigiied this paper but did not swear to it.
The 'ifidavit puiporting to bo his was bore
read to h" ii. At the first reading he said
that thi whole paper was fixed up and writ
ten before he got to the Custom House, and
ho knew "no more about it than this table."
They called Mm up to sign it, and never
read it to h n. Ho signed it and left. Hie
affidavit swears that he was witness to, or
knew of intimidation, whipping, beating,
banishment and mu'der of certe in colored
Republicans. He denied that he s'lteil any
thing of the kind, and swore that lie had no
knowledge of the outrages detailed in the
affidavit. He had been asked to join Demo
cratic clubs, but wr-s to bo influenced by his
own convictions. He had openly remained
Republicm and voted on the ticket. He had
never been threatened or harmed, Shots
were fired at him one night, but he does not
know to th!s day whether whites or blacks
fired them. Howard Thornton, colored, tes
tified that n 187(5 he voted tho Republican
ticket in the Third ward of East Eeliciana
Colored Republican end Democratic meet
ings were held before the election, and no
colored men were compelled to join Demo
cratic clubs. They joined of their own
choice. He wp asked to join, but refused,
but wps never molested for doing so. He
made bis mark to a paper in the New Or
leans Custom Horse which was never read
to him. He signed it becare he thought
they had written only what he had told
them. Here his pretended affidavit was read
to him.. It was like a'l thj others, with
specified statements of armed bands, intimi
dation, violence and murder, which it i
claimed he witnessed or knew of. He
mid all the statements it contained were
false and forged, and that if this paper
bad been read to him, or its contents made
known, he would never have signed it, and
that he did not swear to it. John Lagardee
(coiored)testl6ed that he was at Poll 9, West
Feliciana nn election day ; that he did not
vote, because he bid only returned to tho
parish from Red river, at 3 P. M,, and had
no time to get his registration papers from
home. He saw colored men voting the He
publican ticket and no one was molested.
He afteiwprd was induced to sign a paper iu
the Crstom House. This wps not read to
him, e'so be world not have signed it. The
affidavit pretends to make him swear that he
had been prevented from voting ; that col
ored Repub'icpn wero warned to leave and
banished ; "iat aimed bands of white men
patro"ed he p.-'ish ; that political mu'ders
were corrT't'tl, etc. He dented a" hese
statements, denounced them as forgers, and
said that ps'-ras he knew the election in
West Fe'iei ru 'n 187G was f'ee, Mr pod
peaceable.
Delegate Election, August 10th.
The Coming War with Hex'cy.
Washington, July 2-:. It can be stated
positively to-night hat a definite phn bus
been dete.mined upon for the attainment of
the Nor' Hern States of Mexico by conquest.
As has been already stated in these
despatches, the Administration refused
to rescind its Inst, actions to Geu. Ord, who
is now iu command of the troops on the
border, to pu sue marauders, if need be,
across the border, although it had b;en rep
resented to 'he President and Cabinet that
such action on Gen, Ord's part would almost
certainly bring on a conflict with Mexican
troops. It now transpires that there is a war
party in the Cabinet which is planning to
make the ostensible punishment of cattle
thieves merely a pretext for plunging the
country Into a war of annexation. The Pre-
ident does not belong to the war party, at
least ho professes to desire peace, although
he did not onpose tho instructions which
were given to Gen, Ord.
To-day the President bad a long inter
view with a prominent Texas gentleman,who
is here In interest of the war party in Texas.
He represents that Texas is solid for war,
asserts positively that a majority of the Ad
ministration is for war. He laid before the
President to-day the views of the people of
Texas updn the border troubles, and the
neccessity of aggressive measures, He re
ports that tho President was noncommittal,
but asserts, positively that it makes no dif
ference whether the President is for or
against war. The plan of the war party is
to have Gen, Ord seize a favorable oppor
tunity to cross the border and make an attack
on the Mexican troops, which of course will
be resisted, A large body of Texas troops,
which will be in readiness, are then to be
thrown across. The whole territory known
as Yona Lllavre, comprising the Northern
states, is to be seized, and the revenues col
lected by force.
It is of course expected that this coursa
will precipitate a general Mexican war and
prominent movers in it now in this city ad
rait that it will take 100,000 men and two
years to bring tho war to a close. The prime
movers in this war movement appear to be
certain railroad men who are anxious to run
lines into Mexico, and quite willing to do a
little military transportation business for the
Government, Maps showing the portion ol
Mexico which it is proposed to annex are be
ing prepared, and will be shortly published
in several leading papers which favor w
and annexation, Jloslon J 'oil,
A Woiid to Candidates. .Whilo you
aro making your rounds, pleaso urge upon tho
Democrats you reach, to wo that cvciy man

will be of bcrvico to the party and will not
hurt you to do this littlo service.
WASHINGTON LETTEI!.
Washington, D. C, July 23, 1S78.
Only two Congressional Committees have
so far occupied their places at tho Watering
Place. Mr, Potter opens to thy at Atlan
tic City, N. J., and will give tho vllting
Statesmen a clmnco to cover up tho record
they m ml o in Louisiana and Florida. Gen.
llurnside, at the head of n Committee to
preparo n plan for rc-organlzIng nnd reduc
ing the army, has gone of nil places In tho
world to Virginia. If he has now the over
whelming success he achieved in the same
State in 1803-1, the AVw York .Vim will not
have to call for a further reduction of tho
army to 10,000 men, llurnside will not
leave a man of it alive. Evidence given at
the rehearing of General Fitz John Porter's
case seems tj show that some of the testlmo.
ny ou which he was convicted was false and
that It iright havo been shown to bo falso at
tho first trial. For instance, it was then
shown that there was a fierce general engage
ment on a particular day, nnd it now appears
there were only skirmishes between small
bodies of troops. It was proved that a cer
tain order was sent to Porter by Popo nt a
given t'me in tTio afternoon, nnd that the
distance was such that he must have received
It at another named time, but it Is now shown
that tho order was not sent until considera
ble Uter, and that, in tho position Porter re
ally occupied lis could not have received it
until long after the time named. What ef
fect these and other proved errors may have
on 'he cao it is impossible to tell, but the
ills- oveiy that such mistakes could occur in
a case like this, where the defendant had
reputation, friends and means, suggests that
Courts Martial at their best aro not veiy de
sirable things to have. Who knows how
many innocent men are to-day i. lined iu re
putation and pocket by tho stupid or wicked
or careless decisions of such arbitrary Courts
during the late war? Would it not be well
to have a commission to inquire into the pro
ceedings of any Court Martial if the convict
ed party Bhall so desire ?
Within the last ten days four scoundrels
who helped to count Louisiana and Florida
for Hayes havo been appointed to Federal
office. Thero is no improvement over
Grant's civil service reform in this, unles
perjury, f'oigery and theft are better qualifi
cations for offico than ordinaty party ser
vici .
There may possibly be a duel between n
member of the present Homo of Represen
tatives and a citizen of Washington. It
grows out of an honest effort of Mr. Hunton
of the 8th Virginia District, to make eo"nie
rf our very rich men pay tho same rate of
taxatiun that some of our poorer citizens do.
Mr, Hunton is not only an industrious and
conscientious legislator, but a man of ability
and courage. All good Democrat should
hope the attack on him will fail to defeat
him. His experience in Congress, add' 1 to
the qualities named above, make him a Rep
resentative any district should be proud of.
Virginia, mother of states and statesmen,
should not set the example of changing her
Representatives wi'hout good cau-e.

The Treaty cf Peace.
The treaty of Berlin contains fifty-seven
articles. Tho first twelve articles relate to
Uu'garia, which is constituted an autonomat
ic, tributary principality, under tho suveraiuty
of the Sultan, with a Christian government
and national militia. These articles further
regulate tho election of tho Princo by nota
bles at Turnova ; arrange a provisional gov
ernment previous to his election, and lay the
basis of the government after his election.
Articles 13 to 21 fix the details in regard to
tho new province of Eastern Roumelia,
south of tho Balkans, which is placed under
tho authonty of tho Sultan, with a Christian
Governor to bo appointed by the Pone for
vo years ; and religious liberty is t unranteed.
Article 22 stipulates that the Russians shall
begin to evacuate Iiulgaria and Roumelia in
nino month. I5o.-nia and Herzegovina are
to bo occupied and adiuini.-tered by Aiistro
Hungaiy. The independence of Montoneero
is recognized, and Antivari is annexed there
to. Spezzia is incorporated with Dalmatia.
Scrvia is also to bo independent on eertaiu
pre.-cnbcd conditions, Ino independence of
llouui.noi.i is gu.uantceing religious liberty.
She gives back to Russia that pa't of Hesso
rabia taken under tho Treaty of Paris, and
receives the Dobrudse'ia an 1 souio other ter-
itory.
Tho foitifications on tho Danube, from tho
iron gates to its mouth, are to bo razed. No
ships of war shall navigate tlie Danube down
ward from tho iion gates. Tho Commissioner
of the Dauube is maintained. The removal
of the obstructions on tho Danube is entrusted
to Autro-IIuiiir:ny. Tha Poito engages to
apply in Crete tha plan of government iu
180$, and similar regulations aro to be intro
duced into other parts of Turkey. Article 07
is us follows :
The Prto having expressed wi'liugnes.s to
maintain tho priuciplo of religious liberty,
and give it the widest sphere, tho contracting
poweis take cognizance of this spontaneous
declaration. In every part of tho Empire
dilfereneo of religion should not bo tho mo-
ive ol unfitness in anything relating to civil
aud political rights, admission to public offices
duties and lionors, and the exercise of all tho
professions and industries. Every ouo should
bh admitted, without distinction orreligiou.to
give evidenco before the tribuuak The
practice of all religions shou'd bo entirely
free ; no impediment should bo offered to tho
hierP'chical organization of different com
munions or to their sp'nitual chiefs. Eccles
iastics, pilgrims and monks of all nationalities
traveling iu European and Asiatic Turkey
shall enjoy tho same privileges,
The right of official protection is accorded
to the agents of tho Powers in Turkey and
tho Holy Places, with their religious and
charitable institutions. Tho riehts conceded

tho Holy Places shall not bo seriously affected
in any way, Tho monks of Mount Atlios, of

Republican journuls declare that tho "Na
tionals aro In a state of disiutcgation," hop
ing by this sort of talk to induce republican
"Nationals" to rctuin to their old party affil
iations. It has becomo quite apparent that
tho ropublioan leaders in this state aro re
solved to do all in their power to withdraw
foimor republicans from tho ranks of the
"Nationals." Democrats who havo allied
themselves with the latter should keep watch
on those movements of tho common enemy,

An American looking aller tho distinctions
that exist between fanning nt home, nnd in
this country, is apt to bo impressed with tho
superior conseivatisni of this people their
uuuillinguess to cliango old habits and adopt
now methods of agriculture, however evident
may bo their advantages. From timo imme
morial it lias been tho habit of French fann
ers and of tlioo of the continent generally,
to preparo their land for cereal crops by
throwing it up into lands just nine feet wido,
Tho average height from tho bottom of the
furrow to the highest ridgo in tho middle of
tho land is eighteen niches. In districts hav
ing a stiff impcimcablo clay subsoil, and, in
this countiy, whero rains aro ficqucnt and
abundant, such plans of surl'.ico dminngo may
bo indispcnsiblc, but in a prnvelly or sandy
subso'l, which is as common hero as in Amer
ica, these frequent ditches are not only unneo
cssaiy but inconvenient; and yet you wi"
find tlieso nairow lands and deep ditches
cvciywhcre, even upon tho steepfiravcllyhill
sides. '1 ho French fields thus coirugated
have been the theatre of many ;ore tiials for
the reaping and mowing machines which dur
ing tho pas' few years have been introduced
from Amelia. If tho Hack of tho machine
is crosways or diagonally aero.s tho field, you
can imagiii'j tho stiain to which the machine
would bo subjected. If lengthni-e, it be

aro sent by tho hr.o of C. Aiiltman Sc Co.,
from Canton, Ohio. Tho platform is about
thirty feet square and the mo-t enn-pieuous
machine on it is a i tollable faun engine, of
tho shape of our city fire engines, and it is
ficqttcntly taken for ono. Of tho hundreds
of engines hero this one has come the longest
distance. It is iu constant Use to give motion
to a self binding harvester. Tho latter al
ways draws a crowd. Uhe process of binding
sheaves of stiaw with wire is hero seen for
tho first time by thousands of people daily.

Great ta-te lias been shown in the way of rail-

While in tho 1'ieneh depailtuent of Agri
cr'ture, I was much iuteic-ted in an exhibit
fur lalteniiig poulliy by muhiueiy. The
h" us and cocks we ic hi ranged in little stalls,
about ten inches squinc, witli their heads to-
wih1s tho opeu front and their f'tet haltered
to ti e flmr, in a way to prevent their turning
round. The attendant passed in front of tho
stalls, seized the tiuhippy bird by tho nipo of
tho neck, luscrtcd a tube, to which was at
tached along hose, into its mouth, pressed
upon a peddle witli her foot, and a graduated
quantity of food was forced into tho stomach
of tho bird. They took their nourishment
very much as a boy would tako lucdicino,
Tho food is composed of a ground mixture of
corn, lye, barley, milk and water; and while
it may not accord with tho American idea of
chicken rights to make a rooster cat whether
lie wants to or not, it cannot bo denied that
this regimen makes him mucii more desirablo
to bo eaten. I have nowliero elso tasted such
sweet juicy chicken as they havo here. About
the morality of tins system thero may also bo
some question, and I doubt if it could obtain
n a country blessed with licrgh, It certainly
divests chicken life of uiueli of its romanco.
They must devoto their lives exclusively to
tho ignoble unheroie business of getting fat.
No crowing, cackling, and nest hiding in out
of tho way places in barns, or hatching and
scratching for tho early worm in gardens, or
on ancestral dung hills for them. Indeed
theso people, who havo no word for home,
lavo done much to divest tho lives of chick
ens of hallowed aud homelike associations.
They aro hatched in steam incubators and the
velvety littlo ones never know tlio sheltering
arms of the old hen, but aro protected in flan
nel lined drawers. However, tho French So
ciety for tho protection of animals has pro
nounced in favor of tho abovo described
method of fattening, while the company that
has it on exhibition havo also paintings to
represent tho barbarous practices comuiouly
in vogue. Ono represents a boy with his foot
on the toes of a chicken, stretching its neck
with his left baud while ho administers food
through a funnel held in his right hand. In
tho other a boy has filled his on mouth with
tho food and applying tho tubo to tho disten
ded moutliof tho chicken, is feeding it in tho
way t)at pigeons feed their young.

ted the forgeries and peijuries upon which
the electoral commission determined the
title to tho Presidency and to (hs end that

poll reren thousand votes.
1 1 is cstitnato is quito modest as compared
with that of Republicans in other sections of
tho Stato ; but ho lias it too high, hast year
the Republican cast six thousand votes, and
if Col. Hoyt reaches five thousand this year
lie must speedily attend to tho defections
among tho members of his parly in tho agri
cultural town'hips.
Tho fact is that tho reported popularity of
Col, Hoyt iu Luzerne, as spread broadcast by
tho Republican press of tho State, is all a
myth, and hi estimato to tho Pork's commit
tco helps to prove it so. Somo of his own
party aro openly oppoed to him ; and many
ate secretly againt him ; and many moro are
very lukewarm in hi behalf. He gavo th
committee no estimate of Dill's voto in Lu
zerne, but leading Republicans are very much
worried over the dislike the Labor Relinmer
havo to Mason ami their leaning towards Dill
and aro el'raid that tho latter may rcceivo as
high as ton thousand. Col. lloyt's rccotd as
a coiporation lawyer is too well known fur
him to ho able to make a break in the woik

We learn from a private source that tho
Grecnbackers aro rushing forward to put in
tin field as caily as possible a Democrat as
their caudidato for Congress, witli a view to
influence tho Democratic conference into rati
fying their choice. Finclicr was in Strouds

direction. Rut Democrats there have been
warned not to touch him. Wo think wo ex

with such chaff. Let an able, honet, straight
out Democrat bo nominated. Tho platform

Yes I Earn sj."U0 I
Yes John Sherman, the fraudulent sccro
tary of the treasury under Mayes, told tho la
boring men of Wilkcs-Rarro a week ago that
" the way lo yet $300 was to earn them." Yes
that is truo; but John Sherman who receives
$S,000 fraudulently every year, is uot tho man
to rub this fact under tho laboring man's
nose.; They know it without his insulting
slur at their poverty and intelligence. Had
ho told them where and how to get the work
to earn tho money ho would have told them
what they wanted to know. He might also
have told tlicm had ho deigned to do so, that
tho reason the laboring men of the country
want work is owing to tho bad legislation and
mismanagement by the Republican party,
and thereby bringing on tho panic of 1873,
which destroyed mnnufactures, commerce and
all "other industries of tho country. John
Sherman gets paid for mismanaging tho finan
ces of tho country, but he does not get paid
for iu'ulting the bono and sinew of tho laud.
A Mistakc. The workingman who fa
vors the formation ot a new party, and
thereby becomes 'he ally, or confederate of
the party which has entailed all the miseries
from which we are now suffering upon the
Cuimtry, is sadly mistaken if he supposes
that is reform. However, if he is more of a
patriot than a bigot, he will discover his
mistake before two more months pass over
his head. The men who have ruined the
country will never redeem it plunder is
their game. They have about as much re
Bpect for their country and the rights of their
neighbors, as the fabled wolf had for the life
of the lamb.
"Attorney.General Devcns has decided that
eight hours constitute a day's work in the
Government service ; but the laborer can
agree to work longer if he desires, and the
Government is at liberty to fix upon a longer
