Ohio and Indiana having changed tlie time for holding their State elections from October to November, the only ( etober election tliii year will take place in Georgia on the 5th of the month. There ia no organized opposition to Gen eral Gordon, the Democratic candidate fur Governor, and, therefore, no special interest Is felt in the result. The Democratic conferrees of the Eleventh Congressional district, com pi ialng a portion of Luzerne and a portion of Lackawanna county, together with Montour, Columbia, Tike, Monroe and Carbon ccnnties, have nominated Hon. Charles R. Buckalew, ex-United States Senator, for Congress. Mr. Bockalew is a very able man, with a reputation for personal integrity that has never been questioned andenjoys the confi dence of the people of Pennsylvania, ir respective of party, in as large a degree as any other man within her limits. As ha been well remarked, "Pennsylvania never has had reason and never will have reason to be ashamed of him." There is mutiny in the Prohibition camp, a call having appeared on Satur day last in the Wilkeabarre Watchiire, the temperance oran in Luzerne coun ty, signed by twenty-three Prohibition ists, including three members of the Prohibition State Committee, for a Con vention to meet at narrisburg on September 30th. to nominate another Prohibition candidate for Governor. The Watehfire in taking down the name of Mr. Wolfe from the head of the Pro hibition ticket, alleges as its reason for so doing, that Wolfe, who gained for himself much credit for his open revolt against bossism, is now, as a candidate, attempting to practice the very thiig which he formerly so vigorously con demned in others. This, however, ap pears to be an afterthought The whole I difficult, we think, is traceable to the election at the late State Convention by a minority of the State Committee, of II. D. Patton, of Lancaster, as Chairman of the Sute Committee, his appointment of P. S, Goodman to be Secretary or ine Committee, followed two days after wards by his (Patton's) resignation. At a subsequent meeting of the State Com mittee A. A. Stevens, of Tyrone, was elected to succeed Patton, bnt that ac tion don't eeem to have restored harmo ny to the ProhiO-.tion household, so far at least as the twenty-three signers to the call for a new Convention are con cerned. One of the signers to the call is T. S. Goodman, Chairman of the Lancaster Co. Prohibition Com., and James Black and several other well known Prohibitionists of that county have requested him to resign and have called a meeting of the county Commit tee for Monday next to take action in the premises. This revolt although it looks ugly at first sight don't seem to have any substantial backing, and at the Prohibition headquarters in Philadel phia, and among leading Prohibitionists throughout the State it is not regaraea as possessing any special significance. There is plenty of room for one Prohi hirinn PAndidate for Governor in this Hon. James R. Ludlow, Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Philadel phia, died on Monday last, in the sixty, second year of his age. He had been on the bench ever since 18o7 and was serv ing ont his third term which would have expired in January, 1888. He enjoyed the entire confidence of both parties in Philadelphia, and was twice elected to tin Judjpjhip without opposition. In 171 he was the Democratic candidate fur Judge ofjthe Supreme Court, but was defeated by Judge Gordon by a majority cf.nftefn;thousand. Judge Lndlow was regarded as able, honest and conscien tious a Judge as ever sat upon the bench in this State, and the loss of such a man cannot but be regarded as a public calamity. SUte, but hardly enough for two. looks like crowding the mourners. It Black's Letter of Acceptance.

Prince Albert, visited Ireland some months ago. In addition to being a very ordinary man Lord Londonderry is a descendant of the hated Lord Castle reagh, and his reception in Dublin by the conntrymeu of Henry Grattan and Robert Emmet was marked by a cold and sullen indifference. They regard him as the enemy of their present high est aspiration, the right to govern them selves, and look upon bis advent among them with a feeling allied to hate. "IN ten or twenty years," says tne Lancaster Intdligfnrer, "Pennsylvania will have lost its forest crown of oak timber, and the Alleghenies will be but barren slopes, covered with miserable scrub timber and laurel thicket. And y.-t it Is hardly thirty years since the mountains of our State were covered with the most magnificent timber. There is very little good o-tk timber left in the State, and that little is being used up rapidly. The Pennsylvania railway company uses enormous quantities of it, and one contractor, bv no means one of the largest, has twenty-five saw mills pnra(7e.l in cutting it. It is not thirty years since black walnut was cut into fence rails in western Ohio. Our waste of oak may appear equally criminal in the future, but the use of steel ties will in time relieve our forests of that enor mous drain.' TnE letter of acceptance of Chaurcey F. B'ack, the Democratic nominee tor Governor, will be found e'.sewDere iu our paper. It is a p'ain. straightforward deliverance, and can be easily understood without the aid of a dlctlonarv. He confines himself to the discussion of three questions, the enforcement of the provisions of Articles XVI and XVII of the Constitution by appropriate legis lation, the rights of labor and the liquor tratflc, which embrace the main issues in the present State campaign. What he sajs in regard to each or them is di rect and positive and leaves to manner rr a. r of doabt as to his position. J.nai wr. t Black is the sincere friend of the labor- J ing man bis public utterances for years j abundantly attest. It is no afterthought j with him for the unworthy purpose of j conciliating popular support, but the , expression o! his honest, well matured j convictions, and is consistent with all j that he has ever written or said on the subject. It is not often that a candidate for Governor of this State has so posi tively and unreservedly expressed his views in reference to the important questions wih which the nut State -!trv -itrtirn wM he cUed upon to York. Ta., Sept. 10. 1886 Gentlemen : I desire to acknowledge again, in ibis more public manner, the courtesy with which you have discharged thedutv imposed upon you by the Oemo rmtie. Convention. It was understood when vou presented the official notifica tinn of mv nomination for Governor that I would at a later period, make more formal response. I am the nominee of the Demorrati nart fnr Governor. The questions to be resoived by the election relate to the management of the State uovernmeni exclusively, and I am concerned now, as I would be if elected, about nothing else. THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE CONSTITU TION. Pennsylvania has a constitntion. All her officials take a solemn obligation to support and defend it. Shall it be en forced in all its parts and on all persons alike ? None of its provisions are open ly resisted and defied by any respectable number of persons, except those con tained in Articles XVI and X II. 1 heir scope and purpose are well known. They were framed to secure to the people their equal and lawful rights upon he high ways of the Common wealth. Their due enforcement under "appropriate" acts of Assembly wiuld injure no honest business, and disturb no legitimate in terest. On the contrary, it would pro mote the welfaie of the entire people, including that of the shareholders of the transportation companies themselves. Their best interests are intimately asso ciated with the general interests of the Commonwealth, under whose wise poli cy they are created, regulated and pro tected! The hand which breaks the sanctity of law in one case weakens it in all. The aggressor who defies the con stitution to seize a wrongful advantage to-day, invokes it to morrow for his own protection. Least of all can corporations in the enjoyment of public grants for public purposes, affird to disregard its wholesome restrictions, io no so is al most necessarily to arouse among free men a spirit which may seek, and in num t ins instances has sought, reclama tion by proceedings as little in accord with fundamental law and vested rights as those which provoked it. We propose to hold the shield of the constitution over all alike ; and behind it there is no place for extortion on the one hand or for confiscation on the other. The articles In question must be erforced. The people are determined that they shall be, and that the abuses which they were intended to correct shall cease. On this important subject there has never been any doubt about the attitude of the Democratic party, and I believe I am its nominee to day principally be- j cause there is no doubt about mine. And ; in this we are happily not alone. Every partv but one, offering State cand-.dates at the pending election, concurs with ours in the demand for enforcement of those provisions, and the election of a Legislature which will pass the "appro priate legislation." LABOR AND CATITAL. The enforcf ment of the articles of the constitution, relative to railroads, tele graphs and canals would in itself afford a large measure of relief to the product ive industries of the state and to the manual laborers employed In them. But tne latter reqoire more than this. They have special grievances demand'ng spe cial remedies. Upon some of them the convention spoke freely and nnequivo callv, and in accepting the nomination 1, of course, accept the platform. Shou'd I be elected. I would invite the cordial wealth of the country increasing iu -ratio almost appalling ; bat be also sees it concentrating in the hands of a very few and he knows there is snmeth.ng essentially wrong in those laws which nnh a division of the common produce of capital and labor. What he wants principally is a free field and a rair one ; a repeal of the laws which circum- scribe him, wi:n a caretui rr"" lowed by a vigilant enrorcemruu, those which piotect his life and healtn while at work, and insure him tne regu lar payment of his earnings in honest cash. Some time since I was appeaien io uy miners in the Monongahela valley to am them in securing the appointment of a coal and Iron policeman, win might be employed, in the interests of the men, to protect them against systematic swind ling by false weighing on the tipples. They said that plundering of the work men was systematic and extensive, and was the main cause of the disastrous strike then prevailing in that region. But when I came to examine the law, I found that the Governor might appoint any number of those pecaliar coal and and iron policemen, at the instance, in the pay, and for the exclusive puryow-0 , of the emplovers, but not one for the ; tu.ni.ni of the men. however clear the j ecessity, or urgent the appeal, i nis io nractical illustration of what I mean when I sav that the laborers' interests have been studiously and cruelly subor dinated to the interests of others. During the past year Pennsylvania, n comr-jon with many other stages, has reit profoundly, and to her sore cost, tne throes of labor madly seeking the better ment of i's condition, with the rearess of wrongs known to exist, the remedies for which are bat vaguely unoersioou. The losses inflicted by these recurring struggles are simply tremeunous anu in calculable. They fall heavily upon all classes, and upon none more neavuy than the workingmen tnemseives. aiuai they go on forever ? Suoh wide tumults among men ordinarily sober and indus trious, such vast sacnnces or nreau auu peace by multitudes of intelligent ana orderly citizens are not without grave cause. I beliave they will cease, and cease only when the wage earner is placed upon the dead level or legal equality with the wage-payer, at every stage and in every particular of the sev eral transactions between mem. ox-n of conservative minds have witnejsed the beneficial results of the progress or labor in self-organization, with intense satisfaction. Such organization, com pleted and oerfected. promises apparent ly justice, order and repose to all the j interests concerned. Why not give to it the sanction of the law and the pro- j tectiin of the State ? Incorporation may prove to be the i simple but beneficent expedient of which all modern society appears to be in com- : mon search. The remedj foi all public and private wrong must be in the law ; and iudustrj organized under the law, and with the protection of the law that is given to capital, would find its own safety in the just r. straintsof the law, which makes the rights of person and property sacred under our free institutions.

On the contrary, the new constitution has proved an unmixed blessing iu just so far as it has been respected and obeyed, and the Democratic executive brought into power by the independent action of a great number of citizens has given us an honest, frugal, and irrt-proachable administration.

It was a warning to be remembered. Vry sincerel yours, Chauncey F. Black. TnE BURDENS ON REAL ESTATE Like the men who work for daily or weekly wages the agricultural people, with even less excuse for the dereliction, have neglected the care of their own interests; and by reasor of protracted failure to employ the necessary instru mentalities of mutual organization and representation in the government, they find the burdens of the State resting more heavily upon their fields than upon any other form of property ot equal value. While their lands are deprecia ted, and their produce ut:dersld in their own markets, in consequence of discrim inations against local freights, the reve nue and tax laws are mad to bear upon them with undue and excessive exaction. THE PROHIBITION ISSUE. There is, I believe, hut one other dis tinct question of State policy involved in the election of this year. One of the political puriies has avowed its purpose to pass through two successive legisla tures, and submit to the people a Con stitutional amendment 'orbidding the manufacture and sate of intoxicating liquors in this Commonwealth. A third party, constituting in themselves that "respectable portion of the people" re ferred to by the others in their platform, insist upon immediate and total prohibi tion by legislative enactment, without waiting upon the needless and tedious processor amendment. Nuitherof these parties looks toward indemnification for the large amounts of private property which must be measurably destroyed by the enactment of such a law, or the adoption of such an amendment. The Democratic party has, on the other hand, from Its formation, consistently opposed sumptuary laws, "which vex the citizen and interfere with individual liberty." But this denial of the right of prohi bition implies the duty of regulation ; and though the just power of the State does not extemd to th prescription of the drinK, diet or dress of the individual man, it does extend to the prevention of Bey abuse of his private right affecting his neighbor or society at large ; and I favor the enactment of any laws, how ever stringent, which may be necessary I to that purpose, and, in any event, the rigid enforcement of those now in exist ence. Conscious of the terrible evils of excessive indulgence, we do not attempt to eradicate them by a species of legisla tion which has never failed to Increase j them, but which inevitably brings on the desperate resistance of the citizen, who feels himself deprived of a natural light, aud with it a train of illicit crimes and ruinous disordeit. I cannot better conclude this paragraph than by the following passage from the band of the illustrious Tilden : "Such legislation springs from a miscon ception of tbe proper sphere of government. It is do part of the dutv of the State to co erce the Individual man so far as his con duct may affect others, not remotely and consequentially, but by violating rights 1 which legislation can recognize acd under take to protect. The opposite principle leaves no room (or individual reason and i conscience, trusts nothing to self-culture, ; and substitutes the wisdom of the Senate and Assemhiy for the plan of moral govern ment ordained hy Providence. The whole , progress of sociaty consists In learning how to attain, bv the independent action of vol untary association of Individuals those ob jects which are at first attempted only . through the agency of government, and in ' lessening the fphere of legislation and en 1 larglng that of the individual reason and 1 conscience. Our American Institutions The Convention of Wovernors. To-day the Governors of the thirteen original States or the LTuion, or as many of them as car. conveniently do so, will meet in Philadelphia to arrange for the centenuial cslebration of the adoption of the Federal Constitution by the conven tion of Delegates. The hundredth anniversary of that event occurs one year from to day. It is remarkable that Mr. G. F. Hoar and other senators who were much interest ed during the last session or tongresain securing a grand commemoration of the landing of Columbus for 1892. six years hence, let dip from their effoits any ob servance whatever or the centenary of their ovn national Constilution. which was to occur five years earlier. Yet they are presumably familial with the mem orable words appended to Article VII ot the Constitution, attested by the roll of distinguished signatures, beginning with that of "Geo. Wasui-igton, Pres't. aud Deputy from Virgin a. :" Tv,n in rnnvantlnn bv the nntnlmoni consent the Smtei prereot, the seventeenth day of Sep tember, in the yer of our Lrd one ihoutanit seven hundred and eighty seven, and ol the Inde pendense of the United Stale of America the twellth." The hundredth anniveisary of such an event in our political hiBlory should hardly pass without notice; and. inas much as Congress has hitherto taken no steps to celebrate it, to day's gathering, which originated, if we rightly remem ber, in a resolution passed by the Legis lature of New Jersey last June, becomes ! the more important.

The result is a mass of laws in which every interest but bis is carefully provided for. while he is cunningly restricted in the m st impor tant concerns of his life. Others may combine to limit production and suspend his employment ; to raise the prices of the necessaries cf life ; to lower the wa gf s which ptuchaae them ; but ehou'd he combine with his fellows to market his labor at better rates, he is too frequently a government calling itself pater him by nal."

Will the voters permit merely convention at I'liiladelphia, on the 14h of May of that year. The difficulties environing their tank were very g rent, aa the failure of previous efforts to con fer upon Congress even carefully res tricted authority lo raise ar adequate revenue bad made obvious. At lasi with four mouths of cootionous work through j the summer, the task was accomplished. The Cougress of the Confederation ou the 2131 ot February, however, in its resolution counseling the Slates to hoid this Convention, had added to its pro posed duties that or "reporting to Con gress and the several Legislatures" the results of its labors, so that its "'altera tions aud provisions" might, "when agreed to in Congress and confirmed by the States, render the Federal Cousti.u liou adeqjaie to the exigencies or Gov ernment and the preservation of the Union." The co operating acts of the Legislature closely tollowed this phrase ology of Congress, so that it became the duty of the Convention to make a formal report ot us work to --ihe United States in Congress assembled." especially as tbe document it had produced was less a revision of the existing Articles of Confederation than a new Federal Con stitution. This part of its work, then, was done also on tbe 17th of September, 1787. It look the form of a set of resolutions and a letter. I he records snow tnat on tnat , day were present in convention the i states of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, 1 Connecticut, Mr. Hamilton from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Dela ware, Maryland, Virginia, Noith Caro lina, South Caralina, and Georgia. " The resolutions unanimously adopted firsf proposed to Congress a method ot sub mitting the Constitution to the States for their assent and ratification through "a conventioh of delegates chosen in each State by the peoplw thereof," and, second ly, a method or setting the new Govern ment iu operation by fixing a day for tbe appointment ot electors to vote foi the Fresideut and also for the choice of Sen ators and llepresentatives. These reso lutions, the work ol the lth of Septem ber' thus became of high practical impor tance, aod tiif ir suggestious were carried Into effect by Congress. 1 he letter sent to "his Excellency, the President of Con gress," was a dignified, earnest and elo quent presentation, in brief, of tbe aims an J tue general result of the Convention's labors : "la all oar deliberations on this snhjeet we keep steal II j In oar view that wnlcn appears to us the Kreatest Interest of every trae American tne consolidation of our Union In wbicb Is In volved our prosperity, feltotty. catety, perhaps our national exlateuce. This Importaut consider ation, serloasty and deeply Imuressed on our minds, led eacb State In the tionveotlon to be less rlaid on points ol inferior maarnltade than mlfChl have been otherwise expected; and thus the Constitution wnlcb we now present Is tbe re suit 01 a spirit 01 amity, and oi that mutual defer ence and concession which tbe peculiarity of our f olltleal situation rendered Indispensable. That t will meet tbe lull and entire approbation of every State la not. perhapv to be expected ; but each will deuttless consider that, bad her Inter est been alone consulted, the consequences, might Dave beet particularly cnsaareeaoie or injurious to others; that It Is liable to as few exceptions aa Could reasonably have been expected, we nope aod believe; that it may promote tbe lasting wel fare 01 tbatoountry so near to us ail. aud aeeure her freedom and happiness, is oar most ardent wish." Such was tbe work of tbe 17th of Sep tember. 1787. It is certainly a work not to be wholly passed without recognition on us hundredth anniversary. Undoubt edly the chief national celebration of tbe touudatiou of our Goyercment will be thai or the hundredth anniversary of (be 30i.h of April, 17S9, when its formation brat became effective io ail Us parts through ihe taking of the oath of office by George Washington, tbe first Presi dent. But meauwhile some nonce of ibis earlier day, with its cluster of im port ant events, will serve to remind the generation ot to-day of the circumstances under which the ConsltutiOD was foimed and cf the spirit which animated Its framers.
