Tiik Republican Plate Committee, at its meeting ia rhi'adelphia on Wednes day last, decided that the State Conven tion, to nominate a candidate for Gov ernor and other State officers, shall meet at Ilarrifburg, on Wednesday, the 10th of May. It ia a relief to know that the trial of the assassin. Guiteau, is rast drawing to a close. Finee Saturday last the counsel have been engaged in discussing the le gal questions involved in the cae, and tho Judge's charge may possibly be de livered to-morrow. The published details of the census taken las.t rear show that the number of j foreign" rs in the United.

It also ap pears that the men outnumber tlm wo men nearly nine hundred thousand. Some other newspaper might possibly Iena as neat and attractive an almanac a the Philadelphia liccord almanac for 19p2 but so far as we know, it hasn't dune so.

Gej. Grant's letter to President Ar fiiilH i thar in rotation to the ease of Fiti- John Porter, published elsewhere in our paper, is an instructive commentary on th truth f m, M that "ins- tice travels with a leaden heel.'' Xine- teen years aero Porter was tried by a court martial tor disobedience of orders at the second Bull Run battle and was found guilty and dismissed from the army. President Lincoln refused to grant him a rehearing on Porter's alle gation that testimony discovered after the close of the war would conclusively prove his innocence, and when Grant I became President, and a similar appli j cation was made to him, it met with a like refusal. Mr. Hayes, however, to whom the same appeal was made, ap pointed a military board, consisting of Generals Schofield, Terry and Getty, j j who spent months in giving the case a ! thorough investigation, so that the ex- act truth might be ascertained. They were all stron gly prejudiced against I Porter, one of them going so far as to them irnincr an far os tn ask to be excused from sitting on the board for the reason that he did not think he could do Porter justice. They made a lengthy report to Mr. Hayes, in which they acquitted Gen. Porter of all blame, basing their conclusion upon the evidence that a certain military order ser.t to hini by Gn. Tope, the command ing officer, was impossible of execution. ' ; ' ! s . and that Porter's refusal to attempt to c:ur-v il ollt was jitined under all the circumstances. This was Porter's con stant claim from the day that he was convicted by the first court martial, and it must be borne in mind that Lincoln and Grant formed their opinions ad verse to Porter upon the testimony ta ken before that tribunal, no after-acquired evidence having been taken or submitted to them. Gen. Grant now says in his letter that he spent three full days in carefully reading and con sidering the testimony taken by the Schofield Board of Inquiry, and is now fully convinced that for nineteen years he iias been doing "a gallant and effi cient soldier a very great injustice in thought and sometimes in speech." Gen. (Irani admits that he had formed his belief as to Porter's guilt from a sketch of the field of the Bull Run bat tle, which he now sees was totally in correct as showing the position of the ' two armies. In writing this letter at this particular time, when a bill to put Grant on the ret;red list of the army with the usual pay is before Congress, some persons are disposed to doubt his sincerity and to impute to him a selfish and personal motive, but Schoileld. Ter ry and Getty were convinced of Porter's j entire innocence by the very same testi j mony that has brounht Grant to that i conclusion. It is not necessary to in j quire into a man's motives for his be j lief when ho bases it on farts which I have Mtiafied every unprejudiced otlicer ! in the army that Porter has been a much ; injured and an innocent man. Grant, like uny other man. deserves credit for irankly admitting even at this late day mat. no was in error ana that luil jus- l:..,. ..l ..ii , . . . - Miuuiii now iw uoiio 10 i liz-jorm i oner, it remains to no seen wliat ac tion the President will take in response tu.

It j ., is eAi'eiiej uii ine lanei v-iiin.. in session at Philadelphia, will fix an early day for hearing the argument on the question in controversy. It is im poitant that the matter should be defi ' nitely determined. "While we never I doubted that the members of the Legis ' latui'e were not entitled to be paid at ! the rate-of ten dollars a day for time j consumed beyond one hundred days, al i though that has been the uniform prat l tice ever since the new consti! ution went into effect in 174, arid while we did not j think it was the fair thingon the part of i the Attorney (Ji-neral of the S ate list i winter to instruct the State Treasurer ; not to pa the inein'.nT.s in the same ! way that they had been paid since the j passage of the act of 174, still it is iin j portant to have the question settled in in order that any future difficulty in re ' gard to it may be be avoided. If the ; .Supreme Court affirms Judge Pearson's ' decision, it will be pretty rough on the : members of the present Legislature, inho simply claimed that they should be paid, as their pi edecessers had been p-tid since 1S74. without any protest or com plaint. The line, however, must have been drawii at Home time, and it suited tho Attorney General in a way peculiar ly his own, and not at all cieditab'e to him, to draw it where he did. The same result might have, been reached by means ent irel.v unobjectionable. Tun failure or Judge Peter C. Shan non to secure from Mi. Arthur a re-appointment as Chief Justice of Dakota, and the appointment of A. J. Edgerton, of Minnesota, in his place, discloses a nice liltlr bargain, showing how Tttfr C. was shelved by an Influence he never dreamed of. When Garfield last March appointed Windom. then a Senator from Minnesota. Secretary of the Treasury, the Governor of that State appointed Edgerton as "Windoin's successor. Soon after Arthur succeeded Garfield. Mr. "Windom discovered that Arthur was bent on putting a, Xew Yoik man at the head of the Treasury, and as he (Win dom) couldn't think of living without an office, and as Edgerton in the Senate was like the teats on a boar, entirely or namental, he concluded to try to get back to the Senate himself. How easy it was for him to suggest to Edgerton that if he would agree not to stand in his way as a candidate he (Windom) would guarantee that Arthur would make Edgerton Chief Justice of Dakota. Edgerton, like Ilarkis, being "willing," was nominated and confirmed as Chief Justice, the Legislature of Minnesota met and elected Windom to the Senate, nnd Shannon, who had Cameron's back ing, was left stranded on the thickly strewn beach of disappointed and dis- gnsted ofllce-seekers. man like Windom in The vote of a the Senate has more weight with Mr. Arthur than ' Teter C shannon in Dakota as its Chief 1 jn-TLV a. t bC maUer .Un Shacnnn.

But if we look abroad over the country to-day, and more especially in our own State, we shall discover that a great many more arguments in favor of coalition are presented now than ever we remem- I ber of in the time agone. liy coalition is meant a united opposition on the part of every firm hater of boss rule and ma- j chine dictation in the attempt to over- mrow inese eviis m me important eiec- tions this year. Here for instance, is a very large and respectable body of Re- publicans, who proclaim that they will never again marshal themselves under the bauner of Cameron.

Mr. Dlrtiue is wise enough to see the advantages of coalition, and he has al ready begun the campaign of lsS4 in his own inteiests by slyly instructing his trusted friends to ail vert ise the lact that he is a debt-paying Republican, lie has observed the significant work of the Stalwiuts in Virginia, and he sees that the party of President Arthur is stead ily settling itself dow n to a sweeping ad vocacy of repudiation elsewhere in the south, or wherever else votes may be secured by it. Mr. lilaine is bright enough to understand the danyerous doctrine of repudiation will not meet the approval of the honest masses of the country who outnumber the repitdiatiou ists greatly. And the ex-Secretary of .State further discovers that the advanc ing tide of repudiation can only be stay ed by a union of the forces of the oppo sition, and so he is adroitly feeling his way to the public pulse on the subject of the payment of honest debts, in the aim ultimately of creating a new party of which he hojif s to be the head and front.
