For several months past tho editor of the Johnstown Tribune has been sorely uitlicted with a chronic hatred of what he is pleased to style the "Ebensburg liing.'

Is this mere Jancy, Our Candidate Tor Congress. Wc place at our masthead this week the name of K. Milton Si-elk, Eq,, of Huntingdon, who was unanimonsly nom inated for Congress in this district by the Conference which met in Altoortn on Fri day last. It is a nomination eminently j fit to be made. Mr. Spkei: is in the ! prime of life, and is a lawyer of well re cognized ability. lie is a Democrat of the most orthodox stamp, and, as a ready and eloquent 6peaker, is always prepared to give substantial and convincing reasons for the political faith he professes and of w hich he is so able an expounder. We congratulate the Democracy of the district that they have for their candidate a gen tleman so entirely unexceptionable, both personally and politically, as Mr. Spkkij, and one for whose success the Democratic or is it fact? Let us see. These two Arcadians base their hypo critical complaints mainly upon the nom inations of the late Democratic County Convention. In that convention, which was composed of as high-minded and hon orable men as ever sat in a convention in this county, and who went into that con vention to use their influence to nominate a strong and acceptable ticket, the two wards of Kbensburg and the adjoining township of Cambria, entitled to six dele gates, were represented by John A. Blair and Philip Collins from the East ward, 11. L. Johnston and James Myers from the West ward, and George C. K. Zahm and I'eter Berg from the township. All these gentlemen are well known through cut the county and command very general respect II. D. Woodruff himself having 1 - r i i ,i . l i ...-.e.ii. until party can labor with a cordial and hearty "creiuiore ue-.u puiu.e-a. J I . f . I . 1 . .1 I ...... nr..

There is no man trict who more fully possesses the confi dence of his own party, or who can com mand to a greater extent the support of the many Republicans who are honestly opposed to the election of Mr. Mokkfj.l. We hope for the triumphant election of Mr. SrEKK, but if he fails it will not be through want of effort on his own part or want of confidence in his integrity and sbilily on pnrt of the Democracy of the district. Geary's Proclamation. Our vainglorious Governor has issued another high sounding proclamation, which is as superfluous as it is silly. Geary, like most weak minded and shallow men who chance to occupy public positions, has always had an overweening desire to seo his name in print. Being a candidate for the United States Senate, as tho suc cessor of his quondum friend, Simon Hon. Cameron, he imagines that, in order to make hie calling and election sure, he is bound on every slight pietext to parade his name prominently before the public. His excuse for issuing the proclamation is, that "it has come to ray (Geary's) knowl edge that sundry assessors and registers of voters have refused and are refusing to assess and register divers colored male citizens of lawful ago, and otherwise, qualified as electors." It is said that this Gubernatorial "Bull' is intended specially to apply to the com missioners, assessors and sheritf of Mont gomery county. We do not believe that Geary has or ever had any evidence that the proper officers of Montgomery, or of any other county in the State, "have re fused and arc refusing to assess and regis ter divers colored male citizens of lawful age." It is purely an afterthought. But suppose they have so refused, does that warrant or justify the proclamation ? Not at all. The very act of Congress approved May 31, 1870, which Geary incorporates in his ill-timed proclamation, and which was passed for the express purpose of en forcing the so-called fifteenth amendment, provides full and amplo remedy for the evils' complained of, if they really exist. Under that act, the assessors are liable to the persons aggrieved in a civil action for a failure to perform their duties, and also may bo indicted for a misdemeanor in office, and, if convicted, sentenced to pay a fine of not lets than $500 and be im impriooncd not less than one month nor more than a year. Where then did John W. Geary get his authority to issue this foolish proclamation ! It would have been just as valid, and not any more so, if it had been put forth by the Governor of British Columbia. It is a question peculiarly and conclusively for the Courts, just as are all other violations of the elec tion law. The act of Congress explicitly so declares. Geary is therefore attempt ing to usurp the authority which has been conferred on another tribunal, and his proclamation is void and without author ity and not worth the paper on which it was written. Coming from the source it does, it cannot create the least surprise. up the issue which is to be determined at the ballot-box on the second Tuesday of next October. His character, as well as our own, are but mere "leather and pru nello" when compaied with the grave and important question then to be decided. In reply to his personal attacks against us, we will merely say, that it is the broad est kind of burlesque for a man to assume the role of a reformer whose countenance is as well known and familiar in twos thirds of the saloons of Johnstown as was the rubicund face of old Jack Falstaff, that model tipler and braggart, at the 'Garter Jim,' or at Mrs. Quickly 's famous tavern, with the well known sign of the 'Boar's Head' in Eastcheap, London, during the merry days of i'rince Hal.

Even the i fiici.il despatches of the i A singular marriage wa -t . these gentlemen had formed a political combination to effect and bring about cer tain nominations, they would have left their marks on the ground so plainly that ! every Democrat in the county could easily have seen and understood them. How was it, and what is the true answer to this doleful and stereotyped cry uttered by Swank and Woodruff about the "Ebens- burg liing" ? Wm. II. l?ose came into the convention as a candidate from Johnstown, as did also James Griffin and Nathaniel Home, both from the same place. It was we-ll understood among gentlemen (we make no allusion to II. D. Woodruff in this connection) that these three candidates from Johnstown were ojiposed to the remo val of the county seat. Mr. Uose was supported by a large number of the dele gates from Johnstown and the adjoining districts, it being well known, both here and in Johnstown, that he (IJose), Griffin and Home were good and true Democrats, in favor of the integrity of the pirty or ganization, and opposed to the removal in famy. Had the Ebensburg delegates not a full and perfect right to vote for Hose, or Grilfin, or Home, as they eaw fit, without forming any political combination to bring about the nomination of either? There was no concert of action between the Ebensburg delegates and the other delegates from the north of the county, but, on the contrary, a marked and decided hostility. Who doubts the integrity, personally and politically, of such men as ex-Sheriff Durbin, George McCullough, Michael M'Guire, Abraham Makin, Henry Hopple, Michael J. Nagle, An selm Weakland, James 1. McAnce, Wil liam McConneil, Jaccb Nagle, and many others, who were delegates to that con vention from the northern districts of the county ? Were Vity controlled by the "Ebensburg Iling ? Let their uniform vote for llobert II. Brown answer that question. If there was any "King" at all, it was a Johnstown and not an Ebensburg "King." "Was Capt.'Bonacker nominated for Sheriff by this potential "Ebensburg liing ?" Not much. Of the s'x delegates who represented Ebensburg and the adjoining township of Cambria, he received just one vote. As was to have been expected, Capt. Bonackcr'? strength came from the south of the coun ty, where he resides, and not from the north, which those pure and immaculate editors assert is and always has been under the peculiar control of a few Ebens burg politicians. This mischievous and corrupt "Ebens burg King" is therefore a myth, evoked for the simple purpose of promoting the removal cause in the South. It has no existence, except in the heated imagina tions of the editors of the Tribune and Democrat. If the convention had nomi nated the editor of the Democrat for As sembly on the anti-removal platform, as he hoped and expected it would, this dread ful "Ebensburg King," would not then have had a local habitation and a name his equanimity would not have been disturbed but everything would have been lovely and serene. r iiTifMitirKMi1 ut r.lurit f.-.r 1 ...

W. Menard, colored, came to Wash ington and claimed to be admitted as a member from the third Louisiana district. He was refused a seat by the vote of his Kadical friends, and left in disgust. He at one time lived in Kansas, where his name was associated with some very dis creditable transactions. The latest ex ploit of this "man and brother" is suffi ciently set forth in the following telegraph ic dispatch from New Orleans : A Model. Rapical. yew QrUan, September l.Hou. J. W.

The Johnstown Democrat has resorted to tha stale and contemptible device of publishing in its columns letters purporting to have been written in various portions of the northern saction of the county, en dorsing the removal villainy. Of course all these documents were prepared to order in Johnstown. Amongst the number was a bogus letter, published in the last issue of that paper, which claims to have been written in BlucHick township, and in which the author says : "I shall vote for you (Woodruff) and so will the people of this township." We now assert, with abso lute confidence, that when the vote of Black lick township is counted on the night of the election, it will be found that Wood ruff did not receive a solitary ballot. No one citizen of that township will endorse by his vote the stupendous removal oat rage, liet this prediction be remembered. members of the parly ns George W.. Woodward, Henry D. Foster, Jeremiah S.

The New York Sun is authority for say ing that Chief Justice Chfse has, for some time past, been suffering from a paralytic stroke, which, without eutirely destroying the use of his limhs, incapaciales him from walking without help, aud seriously nflucts his mind, ilis recovery is desired rather than cofidently expected ; indeed it is con sidered doubtful whether he will agaio be able to resume the arduous labors of the bench, although it will be remembered that Judge Grier remained on the bench for sev eral years after he became partially paral yzed. The Chief Justice is now at the couu try feat of his son-in-law. Senator Sprague, of Narragansett Bay, where he has the best medical attendance that the country can af ford. This intelligence will be heard with regret by the whole country. The course of the Chief Justice has been such as to inspire public confidence in the courts, and add new lustre to our highest tribunal. Ilis restora tion to health would be a subject for congrat ulation. Ex-PfiE6ii)ENT Johnson not a Candi date kob Congkess. Some of the friends of Ex-President Audrew Johnson have called on him and earnestly solicited him to become a candidate for Congress, which he very po litely and as positively refuses to do. There is no man in our district that we would support so cheerfully as our honored ex-President for any position that he would accept. He would be a tower of strength and a terror before the enemy, causing them to quake. But we have been assured and reassured that he has no idea of being a can didate for Congress. So then frieuds and foes may dispel their hopes and fears on that score and look for some other Ajax who will wield the two-edged sword in the coming fight. Greenville (Tenn.)
