FOR GOVERNOR,

(Subject to the decision of the Republican State Conven

Hon. D. J. Morrell.
TO this week present to the Repub
licans of Pennsylvania, lion..llaniel J.
Merrell, of ' Cambria county, as our
choice for the nest' Governor, subject
to.the decision of the Republican State
Convention, which-meets in Philadel

nest. This is not done hastily nor in
considerately, for' we have contempla
ted this . step, for months, and would
have announced it. long ago, but for
reasons that Mr. Morrell might know,
as well as, that several appointments
in 'this locality were pending, and had

theiluive • been settled, and we can
noWyet7 properli i natne our choice,
Nithout, being charged that it is done
for the purpose of Controlling or even
pf IMving a voice in naming men to
Under the control of Mr.
Morrell. We have several reasons for
desiring to elevate Mr. Morrell to the
position for which we have named
him, which are good and substantial,
'as follows.:
1.4. We are tired of men who do not
understand what the people of- the
State, want.
2d. Mr. Morrell is a business man.
40.7 . 9,,wa.14a,,bu5ine5s man in the
Timisntive chair.,
Mr. Morrell is one of the larg
est,Manufacturers in the State, and is
intimately acquainted with the wants
of. business men.
'fith.'He is a strong tariff man.
- 6th/Ile - has shown, by his course
in , Ccingretis, that he is eminently fit
for
-the position.
-'7th. Ho means business all the time,
and has the ability to inaugurate
Measures Calculated to benefit the la
borer us.well as the manufacturer.
Bth. He is a statesman without be
ing-a politician in the general accepta
tion' of thb term.
h'er these and many other reasons
we tirgii:the People of the State to con
sider' the claims and fitness of ono
whose record 'in Congress has been
ernYin r entlY : satisfactory to the people of
lf'ennsylvania. No man in Congress
stands higher than the member from
the - 17th District, for financial ability,
and no man is looked up to for his opin
ions on all leading questions; or listen
ed. to with more attention, than the
11. - on. D. rMorrell.
ADTpURRED.—The Pennsylvania Leg.
islature adjourned without day, at 12
o'clock, noon, on Friday last. As we
can Say nothing in favor of it, as a
bodY t. we prefer to say but little, if
anything at . all, about it. It is sicken
ing.to'think of; and the less said, the
befter. r • We have a high regard for a
few, 413(1 . 1t very few, individual mem
bers, but what_ do they amount to in
snob a iiitib'as we had in Harrisburg
all winter? They can enter their sol
emn protest against the corruptions
iiractised.before their eyes and in de_
fiance Of 'sill honesty, all decency and
All self-respect, but there it ends. The
annual exhibition of presenting the
Speaker,: clerks, and each other, with
valuable, gifts, as if to even keep be
fore them the remembrance of their in
famy. and shame,' was gone thi'ough
with, the Usual number of affecting and
sad farel;ells "prOnOunced,
.and after
completely slobbering all over each
other, by going through the usual com
edy in several acts, of "I tickle you,
and • you tickle me," the Legislature
tiiijoirtied, - .sine die, after three months
and a half of feasting, debauchery and
unwise legislation, and the people said
Thank'God ! We have no taste to
follow the subject further, nor tospeak

wag could not allow it to pass without
making a scurrilous attack upon the

isounou that he survives. Senator
Scott very properly rebuked Simon
for his contemptible littleness in thus
assailing a man who, of all others in
this Commonwealth, holds the affec
tions of the people.
COUNT THE COST.—Senator Sumner

Sumner's Speech.
We have hastily looked over the
groat and exhaustive speech.pf, Sena
tor Sumner, delivered in Executive
session against the ratification of the
Johnson-Clarendon treaty Tor the set
tlement of clalins, known as the Alaba
ma claims treaty, and only regret that
it is too lengthy for a place in our col
umns. It is a masterly as well as a
convincing argument against the trea
ty, and elicited the congratulations of
Senators,' regardless of party. - But
one Senator (Meereery of Kentucky)
had the fool-hardiness to vote for the
ratification. The Washington Chroni
cle, in an article reviewing the speech,
relates an incident which "added to
the dignity and gave a'poetic tinge to
the proceeding. , There was a prospect
of the vote on the •treaty being post
poned for' a day, when - Mr. Scott, the
new Senator from Petinsylvania, ro'eo
and called attention to the fact that
the 13th of April was the anniversary
of the firing upon Fort Sumter; and
he suggested' whether it would not
be appropriate to mark it by the re
jection of a treaty made in the inter
est of , a Power which, from that day
down to the fall of Richmond, had
done no act that was not either inten
ded to help the rebellion or to refuse
justice to those who were fighting
against it. .He added, too, that such
a decision would be now appropriate
since the Senate had just confirmed
the illustrious scholar, Mr. Motley, as
American Minister at London, who
would soon go forth to begin his work
under these ample and significant in
structions, and who, in his great speech
before the Historical Society of New
York, on the 16th of .December, 1868,
had, among other memorable sayings,
prefigured the destiny of our country
in these glowing words :"
It is of human progress that I speak to
night. It is of progress that I find a start
ling result when I survey the spectacle which
the American present displays. 'The nation
stands on the point toward which other peo
ple are moving. It has put itself—or rather
destiny has placed it—more immediately
than other nations, in subordination to the
law governing all bodies political, as Ken
ler's law 'controls the motions of the planets.
The law is progress ; the result democracy.
Nearly forty years ago the clear, philosophi:
cal mmd of De Tocqueville was so impressed
by this comparatively infant republic, the
phenomena of which,he had examined with
microscopic minuteness and with statesman
like breadth of vision that he exhorted his
countrymen and Europe in general to accept
the fact that democracy was the preordained
condition of the human +•ace—a condition to
which the world was steadily tending—and
to seek happiness in conforming to the di
vine command, instead of wearing themselves
out en futile struggles with the inevitable.
Ridi - The Temperance Vindicator, which
has for a month or two been publish
ing.the list of applicants for tavern li
cense, together with their signers, has
in its last week's issue the names of
applicants in this borough, and also
the names of the persons who recom
mend them. A number of journals
have expressed their opinions on the
editor's course, in this respect, none of
thorn very favorable. It is not to be
expected that the signers would ap.
prove of having their names thus pa•
raded before the public; but they can
not hope to effect anything by hurling
their anathemas at the editor—nor can
the editor expect to gain any good re
sult by using invectives against the
whiskey seller, and drinker, that we
havq too often seen in his paper. The
right of the editor to publish those
names, we think, cannot be questioned,
for the responsibility rests with him as
publisher; and we cannot think it is a
case of libel—for the same petitions
are open to the inspection of the pub.
lie in the Prothonotary's office, at any
time, and the editor does no more than
simply publish the names without
comment.
There is a question of expediency
involved in thus publishing the names
of signers to an applicant's petition for
license, which time will determine.
That it will pay the publisher is best
known to himself ; but bib boldness
may meet with the approval of the
temperance people, while as we have
intimated his vindictive language may
not. What effect it will haVe on the
community, after the fuss is over, in
the way of keeping twelve citizens
from signing petitions may be seen in
the future. In some small towns there
may ho difficulty in obtaining signers,
but we don't think there will be much
difficulty in Huntingdon, where one
whisky.seller signs for another. There
may be some squirming among those
who are not engaged in the liquor
business, as well as among those whe
are; but they have nothing to say if
they give their names again, for no
man can take offence at letting the
people know that he feels that he is
doing right, whether the public thinks
so or not.

The Last of the Twitchell Case.
Last week Mrs. Twitcholl published
a batch of confessions, semi-confessions,
letters, notes;•entreatics, exhortations,
statements, and .so on, purporting to
be the production' of the brain of the
murderer and suicide '!Twitcholl, and
written' to her. The budget is pro
mised by a'statemont purporting to be
written by Mrs. Twitchell herself, but
it bears the marks of a masculine if
not a shrewd attorney's hand. Mrs.
Twiteboll, of course, denies all knowl
edge of her husband's crime, and de
clares that she'knew not her mother
was dead until she saiv her "lying 'on
the settee in the kitchen a dead wo
man.” The whole affair from bcgin
bing to end—froM the murder itself
eu through the ordeal of the trial, the
conviction of Twitchell, the efforts to
obtain his reprieve from the Gov6rnOr,
the novel 'application to the United
States Supreme . COUrt to ; sot asido,the
verdict, the declaration of Twitchell's
spiritual'adviser that ho believed him
to be innocent of the crime, the inccih

his wife of the murder of her' mother,
the suicide of Twitchell, down to the
Munchnusendike exposured—ia but a
con cateb`nt ion' of licuvrors, neon sis fe
ciee and absurdities of legal quibbles,
cowardly accusations, despicable_ of
forts of the equally guilty to shift the
bloody responsibility from the shout.

Statement of'Mrs. Twitohell.
PHILADELPHIA, April 11.3„1869.
Airs. Twitchell has furnished to, the
Press a full statement in regard to the
murder of her mother., In the first
place she disavows any knowledge of
how or by whom the murder was
committed,' but does not intimate or
insinuate it may have been done by
her husband. She then goes into a
long explanation of her ceasing to-vis
it Twitchell in jail, and says after his
conviction as she was leaving his cell,
he pressed into her 'hand a closely
written paper, which she found to be
an appeal to her to save his life by
confessing that she bad committed
the murder, and followed by a story
that she had committed the murder in
a quarrel, and lawyers had been con
sulted who said she could not be harm
ed On a subsequent visit, he gave
her another paper, conveying another
story she was to tell. She had be
come criminal with one Lee, who had
with her concerted a plan to rob and
murder Airs. 'Hill. On another occa
sion he gave her another written ap
peal to save him, and recommended
her to say Mrs Bill had not been mut ,
dered at all, but had fallen from the
window. All these documents com
mence with appeals to her love, &e., to
save him. They are in Twitchell's
hand-writing, but have evidently been
drawn up for him by some legal mind.
The whole statement throws but little
new light on the affair, but explains
the conduct of Mrs. Twitchell.
O -The last Mount Union News con
tains an article written Illy Mr. John
Dougherty, headed "Huntingdon
Instance of Masterly Inactivity Policy"
It starts out with saying "this county
town of great, aspirations without the
energy befitting a wealthy and,
lectual society, claiming to , be, made
the head of Steamboat slack water
navigation, and point of transhipment
for the products of the Lake Regions,
was so indifferent to their own best
pecuniary interests as to neglect to
attend on Tuesday evening the 13th
inst., at the court house, a convention
of the friends of the Buffalo & Wash
ington City Railroad to send delegates
to meet the friends of this route at St,
Mary's on the 12th of May. inst. (?)"
This breathless paragraph is
.immedi
ately followed by the author's expres
sion "We were unwell and unable to
ho present.",
The author Mr. D. is
,right in say
ing Huntingdon is "indifferent" to this
project; but the fault is not with them,
as much as it is with those who father
the project. It is their place to give
us more light on the subject, and
awake the people by pamphlets, the
Mount Union News, circulars, and oth
er documents, and not to expect the
people to turn out en masse at a Con
vention before they know what that
Convention proposes to do. Our peo
ple, we have no doubt, would cheer
fully contribute to this or any other
object that would advance their inter
ests,provided they weresufficiently en
lightened on the subject. We are sor
ry Mr. D. was "unwell," for (as he
must think), no project is to be accom
plished unless he has his say so, and
our people are just as ready to hear
him us any body else. Give us more
light, Mr. D., and don't attribute the
"masterly inactivity" of Huntingdon
to your own negligence.
To Our Friends and Patrons,
Until we give notice to the contrary,
we will issue to all paying us money

find it to their advantage to call on the subscriber dur
ing the April court nod examine the above machine. It
will ho on exhibition at the Com t (louse in Iluntingdon
during the two weeks of court.
It is a combined IReehine; can be changed from a
Mower to a Reaper in a few momenta; can bo worked
with Widow team, it being higher graced than other ma
ddest and the draft being teduced to the lowest attaina
ble point. Reaping and Mowing with the ./FAurt is no
harder on the team than plowing oafs and stubble. It is
belimed by all who have tried it that it is the machine
best adapted to the wants of the farmers iu this county.
It has no side draft and no weight on tine horses' necks.
Wo will also havo one of the Wood Reapers and Mow
