The Nominees
The Convention is over aud the
democratic county ticket i- now be
fore the people. The gentlemen
placed in nomination will receive our
warmest support and are worthy the
support of every democrat iu the
county. As good men as are ui*m
the ticket now were defeated in their
etl'orls to obtain the uomiuation—but
thus it is always when a namber of
candidates are in the field, some must
fail in gettiug a nomination. We
kuow that the disappointed candidates
will put up with their defeat philoso
phically, aud as good democrats
will give the ticket their warmest sup
port.
HON. S. T. SHix.tKT,
LIEUT. S. S- WOLE,
have been placed in nomination tor
Assembly. They are both old citi
zens of the county, aud nscn who have
worked faithfully in the ranks all
their lives. No one. not even the
bitterest republican, will deny that
they are honest and upright men, aud
that they are fit to represent tbe
County of Centre in the lower House
at Harrisburg —no one will call in
question this fact.
J. NEW us HALL
for Commissioner is one of the best
selections that could have been made.
He is a tax-payer himself aud inter
ested in having the resources ot the
County husbanded, aud will, it elec
ted, which is certain, strive to have
the atTairs of the County administered
with all the economy consistent with
a faithful discharge of his duties.
Give liitu a strong vote, aud back him
up a? an honest man deserves.
J. L. SPAnolle
is the nominee for District Attorney.
' Jack" is a promising young lawyer
and has given evidence of possessing
more than ordinary ability. He
tains an uabletnisbed.cha racier and is
a pleasant and sociable fellow. He is
a self-ruade mau, and will apply him
self to the duties of the office to which
he is certain to be chosen, with fideli
ty and will discharge the same to the
utmost satisfaction of the* people.
For Co. Surveyor John'H. Reifstiy
der, of Penn, was nominated by ac
clamation. He is a young and ac
tive democrat, and altogether a self
made man, with every qualification
and experience for a faithful discharge
of the duties of the office. He sus
tains a good character nod will poll
a large vote.
Adam Yea rick
is upon the ticket for Auditor. He is
also a good man, and the place is ooe
of great importance, although of no
profit to the occupant. It is his duty
to scan the accounts of the county
and see that they are just, proper and
legal. He is a and
having been one of our most active
democrats, wc commend jhim to the
united support of Democrats.
Of our nominees for Judge. Con
gress and Senator, we will speak when
the nominations are made final bv
the respective conferences.
Thus, Democrats, in brief we eu
dorse the work of (be Convention.
Let all bickerings among candidates
and their friends, previous to the
nominations, be laid aside, and let us
work unitedly and harmoniously for
the triumph of our nominees with in
creased majorities.
The democrats carried Kentucky
last week. The election in Utah last
week, went in favor of the Mormon
candidate for congress, Bishop Can
non. In Vicksburg the whites elected
their ticket by 350 majority, the first
time since 1861.
The democracy of Elk couuty have
instructed for Mackey, for congress.
This makes the second county that
has pronounced in favor of Col.
Mackey's nomination. Next will be
Clearfield to follow in the eame wake.J
There is some refreshing election
news in this week's Reporter. North
Carolina and Tennessee have pro
nounced against carpet-bag rule, and
will endeavor to govern themselves.
Thesa states are among the sorely af
flicted in the south, upon them the
hand of the interlopiug despoiler,
foisted upon them from Washington,
has weighed heavily—crushed and
tyranized over, they have resolved to
rise again.
DEATH OF AN EDITOR.
Harrisburg, July s.—Geoge Berg
ner, proprietor of the Daily Telegiapb
and postmaster of this city, died this
afternoon after an illness of several
weeks.
Another party to the Brooklyn scandal,
Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker, who has
been quoted as believing in and declaring
her brother's guilt, is now accused ot in
sanity. As the New York Times atked u
day or two ago, "Are all these people
mad?" Whether they are or net, it is
hardly a question now that the public
morals and peace would be improved by
their imprisonment in a lunatic assylum.
TilK NKGRO C AIM-IT SMITHS
DISMISSAL.
Cadet Smith, ilio negro <■•! I, turn
ed up as a thorn m tin side <>i tho
Administration Thisyoung negro was
receives! into Wot Point Academy
after examination, art! was allowed
to continue at the institution until tin
time of graduation. Thus far the
odious duty of caring lot the welfare
|of the cadet was not brought directly
! home to the Administraiion, hut tin
| time of graduating him hat at rivtd,
aud what tg d< with inm became a
perplexing question. It i> w11 known
that he was discharged from W<-t
Point on the ground ot his alleged de
liciency in philoaophv. Thia it i*
claimed was a mere subterfuge to get
j rid of hint. Mad he been allowed to
graduate be would have been entitled
| under his commission, to an assign
jineut iu the army, and to assign
; him to a regiment and place him on a
! footing with the white officers was tot'
jdelicata a duty for the >rrrtary id
i war to undertake, and oue which In
was glad to avoid at the sacrilice'ol
[ the voung man. Hence his detieiiu
,v. In 1* red Duglass's to-daypap- i
he prints a three-column card in wliicl
he makes a strong case for hiai-elt
He goes over the detai.s in connec
tion with hi* examination in philoso
phy, and purports to give the idenli
eal interrogntiou* propounded him,
aa well as the answers thereto. Aftei
leaving the Academy under his ordei
of dismissal he relates au interview h<
had with Secretary Belknap, when, in
company with the uegro Congren.'an
KUiolt, he made an application to hi
reinstated. * Smith having asked foi
JU opportutdty to be re-examined,
the Secretary said, "1 will not do it.'
ami gave as a reason that he believed
he had hail a fair examination, ami
aiso that he wanted another cadet at
West Point froiu hi* district, and that
he had already notified Mr, Kiln th
.-end some one there. The Secretary
then used the following plain au.l de
cisivo language, viz.: "tleutleiueu, 1
don't wish to bo misquoted as saying
that I can't give Mr. Smith a le-cx
amination, for I say 1 won't do it
Smith then made another prop- -iu. n,
viz.; Ho s-ked him to let him go
hack and join the dg.s Mow, thus
losing oue year by going over this
course again, for although he had al
ready lost a year en account ot troub
les there thetirst year, he was willing
to lose another. "But .-aid the Sec
retary, M I can't do that without the
recommendation of the Academic
Board at West Point, and they won't
recommend it. 1 was speakiug with
Colonel Kuger, the Su; eriuteudent ot
the Academy, iu New \ork la.-t Sun
day, about you, and he told me that
the Academic Board would not re
commend you to oe reinstated." The
matter summed up iu a shell .-coins
to bear the inference that the officers
at Wesa Point were instructed to have
.Smith dismissed for some seeming tan
gible cause, arm v influence, which
tad been working against hin:, suc
ceeded, when the trying point came,
iu couriuciug the Radical Secretary
of War that his a.—igtiiug to duty
would cause a lack of desciplin in the
regiment to which he might be order
ed that he did uot see lit tj incur.
TIIE NEW OATH
As candidate* for office ami their
friends were often charged with .-ins
of omission and commission, under
the old Constitution, it would be well
enough to take a look at the new fun
damental law of tho State. The oath
to be administered to all officers in
the future, and which is incorporated
in the document indicated, read- thus:
"I do sclemiy ivttr (or affirm > that
I will support, uU v and defend the
constitution of the C'uited States, ai d
iheconstitutioD of this coramonwralth,
and that I will discharge the duties of
my office with fidelity; that I have
uot paid or contributed, or promised to
pay arcontribute.eilherlireclly or iudi
tecly any money or other valuablething
to procure my nomination or election
(or appointment); that I have uot
knowingly violated any election law
of this commonwealth, or procured it
to be done in my behalf; that I will
uot knowingly receive, directly or in
directly, any money or other valuable
thing for the performance of any act
or duty pertaining to my office other
than the compensation allowed by
law."
That is a very plaiu oath and if
there is no perjury committer! under
it, candidates and the officers elect
must deport themselves very circum
spectly in the future. Integrity and
fee bills are pretty well fenced in bv
this constitutional clause, and if "hard
swearing" will make good officers, we
will certainly have them in the fu
ture.
OK VOTER*
The new constitution requires that
every voter shall have beeu a citizen
of the Uuited States a* one
month ; a resident of the state one
year, (or if he shall have been aquali
tied voter and removed therefrom and
returned, then six months) and a
resident of his election district at least
two months immediatiy proceeding
the election ; if twenty-two years ot
age or upwards, he shall have paid
within two years a State or county
tax, which shall have been assessed at
least two months and paid at least
oue month before the election. City,
ward, borough and towoship officers
will be elected on the third Tuesday
of February; the general election
will be held on the Tuesday following
the first Mouday in November. Un
der this law, all assessments of the
State and county taxes should be
made before the 3d of September nnu
paid before the 3d of October, a* the
general election this year takes place
on Tuesday, November 3d.
Of the thirty eight republicon nom
inees for the lu>ui>a in I'hiladeiphia
not than fifteen ure saloon keep
ers. The occupation of a number of
the rest cannot he ascertained at pres
ent, as their names are not to be fouud
iu the city directory, But this trifling
fact will not interfere' with the policy
of the republican parly on the liquor
question. These fifteen repreaeutu
lives of the rumshopsof Philadelphia
cun he depended on to support the
local option law quite as steadily as
the aquarians of Tioga and Chester,
should the interests of the party <!e
mand it. There u au excellent un
derstanding between the two wing* o!
the republican party in the legislature
!on this Question. It is the old alii
auce between Jllifil ami Black George.
As there is no danger of the adoption
of u local option law or of any pfher
prohibitory measure that would inter
fere with the infer* *ts of the saloon
keeping republican ivprgsentatives
from Philadelphia, they give thoin
selves no conceit! about tin' rest ofThe
State. It was by the votes of thir
very class of republican representa
tives that the local option law was
passed, and by their votes it will nev
er be repealed in a lepublican legisla
ture. 1

The Struggle for W raltli
No one can settle down iu a llu
ropean city or village for a month
and observe the labvringcla.-t .*, with
out untieing a great ditßrence b. twcei
'.lit ir aspiruiioo,aml>iliou and habits
and ti: ?e of c rrisj>udiug clu.-se- in
this country. He may ?ic great j \
erty in a continental town, and men
and women laboring severely and
faring meanly, and a In JK-U-- gap <
istiug belni'LU Guases ; he may -er the
poor virtually the slave-of the rich ;
hut he will witness a measure oi con
tentment and a daily participation in
huiuble pleasure? to which hi- eyes
have been strangers at home. The re
is a sad side to this pleasant picture.
Much ot this apparent contentment
an.l enjoyment undoubtedly conic
from the hopelessness e>f the struggle
lor auythiug better. An impassable
gull exists between the n: and the ed
ucated and aristocraticclav-es —a gulf
which they have recognized from their
birth ; and, having recognized this,
they have recognized their own limi
tations, aud adapted themselves to
them. Seciugjust what they cnu do
and cannot ilo, they very rationally
uudertake to get out of life ju.-t what
their condition lenders attainable
There is no far-on, crowning good for
them lo aim at, so they try to get
what thev can on the way. They
make much of fete-days, and social
gatherings, and music, aud do what
they can to sweeten their daily toil,
which they know must be continued
while the power to labor lasts.
In America it is very different. A
humble backwoodsman sits in the
presidential chair, or did sit there but
recently; n (a.lor takes the highest
honors of the nation; a canal-driver
becomes a powerful millionaire ; a
humble clerk grows into n merchant
prince, absorbing the labor and sup
plying the w ants of tens of thousand*.
In city, state and national politics,
buiidred.s and thousands may be coun
ted of those who, by enterprise and
-elf-culture, nnd self assertion, have
raised themselves from the humblest
positions to influence and place.
There is no impas-able gulf between
the low and the high. J]very man
holds the ballot, nnd, therefore, every
man is n person of political power ami
importance. The ways of business
enterprise are many, and the reward?
of success are munificent. Not n
year, nor, indeed, a month, passes by,
that does not illustrate the compara
tive ea: with which poor men win
wealth or acquire power.
The consequence is that all but the
wholly brutul are after some great
good that lies beyond their years of
toil. The European expects always
to be a tenant ; the American intends
before be dies to own the house he
lives in. If city prices forbid this, he
goes to the suburbs for bis home. The
European knows that life and labor
are cheap, nnd thai lie cannot hope
to win by thtm the wealth which will
riulize lor him the dream of future
ease; the American finds his labor
dear, and its rcwaids comparatively
bountiful, so that lu- dream of wealth
i? a rational oi.e. He, then lore, dc
Ir.os himself, works early and late,
and bends his energies, and direct.-
1 those of his family into profitable,
channels, all for the great good that
j beckons him on from the fur-oil,
golden future.
The typical American never lives
jiti the present. It he indulges in a
recreation, it hi pprcly for health's
lsake, uud at long intervals, or in
great emergencies. lie dues not
waste money on pleasure, and does
not approve of those who do so. lie
llives in a constant fever of hope and
feancclDtiou, or grows sour with hope
j deferred or blank disappointment.
jOut of it all grows the worship of
'wealth and that demoralization wiiicb
results in uuscrupulotisness concern
ing the inelbo Is of its acquirement.
!So America pyeyents the anomaly of
a laboring class with unpt>.c£;juiiU.dl
(prosperity and piivileges, ami unux-l
smj;|ed discontent and discomfort.
There is g;ely soiuething better
j than this, Ifieft better j
(thaii a lifelong sacrifice pi content j
and enjoyment for a possible wealth,;
j which, however, may never be ac j
quired, and which has not (lie power,!

In commenting u tlie Becchcr
.scandal tlie New York Obwrttr, n
religious jourual of wide circulation
ami influence, makes the appended
comments sensible nod tiim iv that
we honor them with editorial repro
duction. the developments of this
Brooklyn tale of sin and sorrow are
directing public attention very |xint
edly to the question of the relation
between the pastor and his always
more or less enthused female parish
loners. The grave danger to the
clergyman, and the still graver dan
ger to teligion, which may follow
indiscretion or want of acquaintance
with human nature, masculine or
feminine, demand tlmt this matter
meet the serious consideration of lite
clergy nr.d of society. Any teaching,
doctrine, or usage which allows priest
[or preacher, vr anybody else, to step
iu lietween husband and wife, is wrong
and dangerous to society. It is based
on social conditions, happily gone for
ever, and which the constitution of
Aniericau social life ami our ideas of
selfrwpect ami personal independence
will never allow to come around
nguin. It is not likclv, however, thai
any direct claim by any power or man
or act of meu to regulate the fumily
relations of Americans will ever he
seriously pushed the moment it is re
sisted. '1 he idea of the government
of society ami the grasp of power by
Mich means belongs to a past age.
The practical danger now is in the!
thoughtless fostering of unnecessarily
private or confidential relations be-j
twven the clergyman and the feminine!
members of his dock, or iu the x
--ichange of the lesser familiarities
; which the moral tone of modern so
ciety forbids between the ordinary I
mat) and woman.
The common custom, lor instance,
[of the minister's taking the first kiss
at a marriage, is a pointed illu>tra*j
ti<>ii. This usHge dates hack to the
lime of feudal robbery of privileges;
and private rights. It is indecorous
now, and is probably the shadow and
' relic of an observance more than in
| decorous. It is indulged in, of course,
| now without thought of any history!
in the past or any meaning in the:
| present, but it is this very thing ol;
j thoughtlOJJMlV** which we aro con
demning.
I<et the Observer speak, however : 1

Friends, do you think that Chri*l exag
gerated the rati.*! * for alarm ' Do you sup
pose that Paul and other apostles were
unduly excited when they urgid men to
tin meu o*te repentance? We ought to
know that God is to some persons and in
some circumstance* a consuming tire. It
i* a tearful thing to fall unprepared int
the hands of all angry God.
Believe me, the Bible puts more moral
fiher into it* conception of God than do
many modern preacher*. Society to day*
l.ceil* true teaching in regard to tlie char
acter <it God No preacher loved men
more than Jesus, who grouned for them
in Gclh*rinane, ami died for them on Cal
vary, and yet Jesus uttered my text. We
mu-t beware lest wti substitute tor the God
ot tlie Hiisli- a (>cd like unto ourselves,
winking at sin and evading its deserts.
Our only nutcly is in coming to God
through Christ a* helpless sinners. No
man i* sale for a moment who despise* the
character of God and Christ as revealed in
the Bible. There is no depth of disgrace
and infamy to which a man may not sink
when he puts himself and his wishes in the
place of God and Hid truth.
A man of brilliant talents, the idol of
thousand*, the sovereign in a vast realm
turns away trom Christ and his truth, and
goe- downward, dragging after him bro
ken heart* and blighted lives I lift be
fore you the cnt- of Christ. Here is seen
God s plan liir a world's redemption.
Young men, avoid even the itppcarnnco ol
evil. There is no position of safety except
ui the cro . Here fear la turned into love,
darkness into light, life into death. The
net feet lovo of Christ will cast out foar.
