As the time for holding the Cineinnati Convention approaches, great interest is manifested in the result by those deeply interested in politics. There is no deny ing the fact that there is a deep underly ing current pervading the masses, which strongly indicates a dislike to accept the nominee of either of the leading parties. This pervades all grades of society, and it would be very unwise to disregard it. It grows out of the fact that the Democratic party has given no assurance of its ability to remedy the evils which it is alleged the Republican party have brought upon the country. In other words, there is no con fidence in either party. If a few leading men, men whom all parties respect, with ability to lead, were to rise up and ignore existing pa' ty lines, the probabilities aro that the next President would not owe his election to either the Republicans or Dem ocrats, but to a spontaneous uprising of the people. This being the feeling among the people, it will require no little care, on the part of our representatives at Cin cinnati, in selecting a candidate. The nom inee must be an honest and capable man a man having the confidence of the people. We hope for the best and we assure our Republican friends that they must do the best or our banner will be trailed in the dust. We regret very much that the Repub lican party has been so fearfully demoral ized and that thousands upon thousands of its voters stand ready :o vote for its nominees simply because they cannot do any better. They abominate the cor ruptions which have sprung up in high places, and insist upon the party returning to the days of its purity when it was led by such men as Lincoln, Greeley, Smith, Seward, Sumner, Wilson, and many others, who have gone to that bourne from which no traveler returns. Honesty character ized every action of these men and the party prospered, and it was not until the hungry horde of Democrats, finding no opportunity to plunder in their own party, swooped down upon us like the Goths and the Vandals, capturing our organization and thrusting the honest original Repub licans to the rear and filling every place of honor and profit with their own kind, that the party became corrupt. The Coniren tion will do well to take all this into con sideration and govern itself. accordingly Wa assure the editor of the Globe that we never once thought of him when we indited the little paragraph in regard to fixing up some things in this county. And we assure him further that we never count on doubtful voters. We always give the enemy the benefit of the doubt, and espe cially is this so where the case has been so completely "fixed" as the editor in ques tion has been for the last three or four years. Both Democrats and Republicans have r•;garded him as an unquestionable fixture—a full-grown tail to the Demo cratic kite with Speer at the string. Of course, if by any miraculous interposition of Providence, or less potent agency, if it were possible for a less potent agency to accomplish it, he should support the Re publican party once again, we will be re joiced at it, but until the miracle is per formed he will please understand that we do not refer to him when we speak openly and above board of fixing things in the Republican party. So, Professor, you are on the wrong scent. You have wasted that valuable gas upon the desert air. Un like bread east upon the waters it will hardly return after many days. Allay thy wrath, and humbly—down on thy bonded knees—ask Mr. Speer's forgiveness for having endeavored to create the im pression that there is still a secret hanker ing, in thy breast, after the flesh-pots of Egypt. A WEEK or two ago we took ground in favor of opening the Centennial Exhibi tion on Sunday, a position in accordance with views long since firmly rooted in us,viz: to advocate, to promote, and to defend any innocent Sunday employment which has fur its object the enlightenment, refine ment and disenthralment, both bodily and mentally, of the human family.. For these and other reasons we have always advoca ted Sunday preaching, (a very heavy labor with some,) Sunday schools, Sunday news papers, Sunday cars for the benefit of the poor, Sunday postoffiees, and every other institution that the percentage of gain morally, religiously, intellectually and physically is well marked. History will tell any one, who will take the trouble to examine, that Sunday is not the day set apart by the decalogue, however much we may endeavor to accord to it the same place in our religious observances. But we have no disposition to discredit it ; on the other hand we simply design to make the best out of the institution for humani ty, and here we accord fully with all the fathers of the churches. The man who says we want to desecrate it simply does not know the difference between the Sun day of a Christian and the Sabbath of a Jew. WE are deeply indebted to Frederick E. Seward, esq., editor of the Coal Tr de Journal, for a copy of his valuable compi lation of Coal Trade. Statistics for the year 1875-6. It is, as it purports to be. a com• pendium of valuable information relative to coal production, prices, transportation, etc., at home and abroad, with many facts worthy of preservation for future reference corrected to the latest. dates. It is just the thing for every coal operator. THE meeting advertised for Monday last, , in New York, to take action looking to the formation of a third party or the nomination of an anti-tuaehine man for Pre *Went, was well attended. An addross littabeen issued to the people of the Uni ted States. The Wilthington Herald credits Whit tier's majestic hymn to Walt Whitman. OPENING OF THE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION. Wednesday last was a proud day for Philadelphia. It was only e 1 n:111 , , , d, in historic 4rcatne., by the memorable Fourth of July, 1776. llow different the Cireintistanec,4 ! The tii a antionnt•el to tin few millions who had found their way to these >bores, the birth of a new nation ; the latter proclaimed to the millions, throughout the globe that the first hun dred years of our national existence is about to expire, and extending an invita tion to all to come and compete, in gener ous and honorable rivalry, with the results of a century's progress. Yes,the United States, the youngest of the nations of the earth, in Philadelphia, where Independence was first officially proclaimed and recognized has, by the expenditure of millions, afford ed an opportunity to the older peoples to come and witness the material greatness of all that characterizes our land. On the Fourth of July, 1776, scarcely three mil lions people responded to the announce ment of Old Independence Bell ; on last Wednesday when President Grant pro claimed the Exhibition open forty millions of actual citiiens, in effect, heard the procla mation and patriotically cheered. If the contrast is great the practical results of the century are astounding. But we cannot stop to enumerate. Philadelphia put on her cosmopolitan robes and ignored herself. Her leading thoroughfares were decorated with untold numbers of the brilliant banners of all the nations of the earth. No expense was spared and the assembled world was grati. fled and applauded. The day opened sulki ly, but before nine o'clock the threatening clouds wore dispersed and the sun came out brilliantly, grandly. At six o'clock, A. M., the street cars were loaded down to their fullest capacity, carrying the large crowds to the grounds and so it continued all day long. At 10:30 the opening ceremonies com. menced. The platform was erected at the southern entrance to Memorial Hall and spanning the space between that building and the Main Exhibition building. The choir occupied a platform adjoining the nave of the latter. Places were reserved for all the dignitaries present, foreign re presentatives, senators and representatives in congress, judges of the supreme court, members of the Pennsylvania legislature and of the press, of which we were an ex ceedingly small fraction. The National Hymns of the nations represented were first sung by the choir under the direction of Theo. Thomas. The music was su premely grand. After the music came the eloquent prayer of Bishop Simpson, fol lowed by the speech of John Welsh, the chairman of the Board of Finance, pre senting the buildings to the Centennial Commissioners and their acceptance by Gen. Hawley, who, in turn, passed them over to the President of the United States, who, in a neat and eloquent address, decla red them open to the public. Everything passed off happily and in order. The most prominent figure upon the stand, occupy ing the place of honor, was the Emperor of Brazil. After the ce.rewonies a procession was formed, and the invited guests, led by the President and Dom Pedro, proceeded to Machinery Hall and started the great Corliss engine which has a capacity of 1,300 horse-power, and operates eight miles of shafting with less noise than is usually made by the average sewing ma chine. In the meantime the buildings were all thrown open and the crowd, greater than any that has ever assembled in this coun try before, poured into the great buildings and gazed and wondered, and gazed until their senses reeled at the mammoth propor tions of the Eshibition before them. We went to Philadelphia expecting to see a mag nificent display, and we came away, three days later, utterly overwhelmed. The thing is too big. There is no end to it. A week is a drop in the bucket. If the reader wants to see it all it will take months, yes, months, and nothing but months will be satisfactory. It will be a little expensive but it only comes once in a lifetime, and better make great, very great sacrifices, than not see all that is of it: Do not go until on or after the twen tieth of June, because, while there is enough there now to entertain any ordina ry man six months, yet there is much that is not ready and will not be for weeks, and while you are looking at it you may just as well see all that there will be of it. No man, woman or child should fail to see the Exhibition. We hope the railroads will put dowu the fare to an amount not exceeding ten or fifteen dollars per day for the use of cars and haul everybody that wants to go. It will even then cost too much, and especially will this be the case if the Exhibition is oloaed 04 Sunday Good boarding can be had at boarding houses for from S 1 to $2.50 per day, with- in easy distances of the grounds, and the farmers are arranging for a large number at the Grange headquarters. Do not fail to attend, but do not go before the twentieth of June. A PHILADELPHIA despatch to the New York Sunday Herald: "The Exhibition will ultimately be open on Sunday. The public sentiment in favor of it grows every day. It is not alone the thousands of working men and women who cannot afford to lose a day's work that join in demand • ing it, but the liberal minded of all class es. A large mass meetieg, attended by a number of ladies and gentlemen of the highest respectability, was held here this evening." Tin Bedford Gazette looks as neat and trim in its new attire as the newly burn ished brass buttons on a Centennial po liceman's coat. It is a great improvement on the old patent outside arrangement.— May it never lack prosperity. ON Thursday morning last the average Philadelphian was at least two inches taller than on the Tuesday immediately prece ding, and oh how liberal they were. Wed nesday's crowd did it.

The Centennial Grounds Last Sunda .A. reprosenl lake! of the Sunday I says: Under the influence of a clear sky and a hraeing southwest wind, all the RV.3- nues leading, to the Centennial Grounds were yesterday thronged at an early hour with tens of thousands on their way to the great centre of' attraction. Cars, car riages, coupes, and in many instances hum bler means of transportation, were brought, into requisition, each filled to the utmost with gay and happy men, women and children, all bent upon rational enjoyment, despite the foreknowledge they had that its chiefest source, an inspection of the in teriors of the noble buildings, was denied them. Upon reaching the main entrance ,the stream of humanity debouched to the right, and flowing northward, encircled the entire area covered by the buildings, until it returned to its starting point. Bel mont, George's Hill, and the Reservoir were crowded with eager sightseers, who gave frequent vent to their astonishment and delight at the immensity of the various structures and the noble T k rospeet spread out before .their enraptured eyes. A care ful calculation made by one capable of estimating large bodies, places the number yesterday denied admission to the grounds at not less than one hundred thousand, the greater part of whom, it is safe to say, would gladly have availed themselves of what is now spoken of as a privilege, but which is certain to become ere long an un• doubted right. A. more orderly, well behaved, and well dressed crowd it would be impossible to assemble in any other country than our own, and to this fact is unmistakably due the absence of disorder, rowdyism, or drunkenness. On all sides was evinced the most deep-seated feeling at the action of the commission in closing the gates, which, while temperate in lan guage, could not fail to impress.the repre sentative of The Press with the fact that the opening of the gates on Sunday is merely a questicra of time, and thac a very short one, if the Exhibition is to be the financial success our people hope and the honor of the country demands. Hurried colloquies with representative men in the community impressed the writer with the unanimity of popular sentidient on this subject, which found expression in various ways. "If'," said an eminent Protestant Episcopal divine, noted as well for his deep piety as for his advanced liberality, "there be sermons in stones and good iu every thing,' as I firmly believe, what harm can there be in opening these beautiful grounds and buildings to the working classes, who would assuredly be instructed and edified by works of seience, art, and religion there in displayed ? Can this be as hurtful as driving the hundreds who are to-day driv-; en, as you may see, into the numberless saloons yonder, where, if they do nut drink to excess, it will be no fault of those who deprive them of the opportunity of find ing rational enjoyment in a Christian-like manner ? I believe in appealing to the intelligence through the eve, car, and mind, and not in constraint. If these peo ple do not desire to attend church, there is no power to make them ; therefore, the next best thing, after persuasion has foiled, is to provide something that will keep them out of temptation. But," he con tinued, "pardon me for inflicting a sermon upon you, who have read so many better efforts than I can possibly make." Leav ing our clerical friend, a well-known bank er was met, who drew attention to the numbers driving past, and suggested that there was as much "desecration of the Sabbath" in rolling around in a carriage or behind a fast piece of horseflesh as in feasting the eyes on a beautiful pioture or a wondrous piece of mechanism. Although wealthy, he was rather communistic in his views, and favored the suppression of en joyment of any kind by the rich so long as the poor were debarred what they con sidered their rights. Leaving our Red ,Republican friend, the next person met was an intelligent, well-to-do mechanic, who, drawing attention to the crowds, sug gested that the Centennial Commission might as well have in pocket the fifty thousand dollars scattered around among the human aggregate. He was not op posed J the closing if—and here comes in the point of his argument—those who cannot afford to lose several days' pay and the price of admission are paid by the wealthy Sabbatarians who employ them for such reasonable time as may be devoted to an inspection. In this connection he named certain large manufacturers who could easily do this if they had the will, and whose establishments would unques tionably be benefitted by sending details of men to visit Machinery I-Jall and the Agricultural Building. A prominent pol itician was the next to ease his mini to your representative on the all engrossing topic, but as his views were substantially the same as those above noted they need hardly be repeated. The fact of the Penn sylvania Railroad Company ceasing to run its cars from the lower part of the city yesterday was attributed by many to a variety of' motives. Some thought it was in diference to the sentiment of the com mission, while others argued that it was from lack of popular support. The latter of these reasons apparently had no founda tion in fact, for the various stations on Washington avenue were besieged all day with would-be ticket buyers. However, with their reasons we have nothing to do, but merely record the fact of the suspen sion of travel by this line, whilo the Read ing road was crowded all day. Elm and Belmont avenues presented a lively aspect, the various ice-cream saloons, beer-houses and drinking-shops being crowed all the afternoon, although no signs of intoxica tion were visible upon those present, which speaks volumes fur the 'moderation and self restraint of our' citizens under the dis advantages of forced exclusion from the grounds. Whether this will be the ease next Sunday, if the gates are not unlocked, is more than we can say, although wo trust that before that time other counsels will prevail, ar,d that the multitude will be ad mitted. Arrest of an Insane Incendiary. WILLIAM PORT, May 14.—Last ing at eight o'clock the city was thrown into a furore of excitement by the alarm of fire, and hundreds of people rushed frantically through the streets in the di rection of the recent fires on Ilepburn street. An immense concourse of people were observed coming down Third street, near Hepburn. An excited individual rushing in ad vance of the dark moving mass, shouting at the top of bis voice, "They have got him," and instantly hundreds of people were rushing up the streets, At West street the sidewalks and street were one complete jam of people, pressing anxiously forward to obtain a look at the villian, who was being marched down the street under the protection of a strong guard. So infuriated were the people that for a time fears were entertained that the guards would be overpowered and the prix- loner lynched. The news spread rapidly, and upon reaching the jail scores of people came running up the streetuntil the throng numbered many hundreds. Fortunately, the doors were already open, waiting to receive the prisioner, and lie wa:: llere it was Licit liiu inc:' , tiliary was (!, , r• utlius Curter, ail re,ident of street.

NEW ORLEA Ns, IS.— A New Or leans Tinics special, dated Summit, Miss., May 15, says : Information was received hey last night of a desparate affray be tween negroes and whitcia at Laurel 11111, West Felicina Parish, near the Mississip pi line. On Frilay night about thirty negroes went to the store of a white man in the vicinity, and calling him to the door, riddled him with bullets. A posse from Bayou Sara went out on Saturday for the body, but the negroes would not give it up. A fight ensued and three ne groes were killed. Two whites are missing The negroes are gathering in strong force Eleven hundred are said to be under arms. Whites are going down from neighboring counties iu Mississippi, and a serious fi ! ;lit is expected. _ _ A.special to the .R•plilde'con from Ida you Sara, La., dated May 15th, says : This is what I consider as reliable as to the result of Saturday night's affrays : Eight. colored men have been shot dead and four hanged. About twenty were wounded. No whites were killed. Per sons just from the scene report sixty blacks killed, but this statement I consid er as exaggerated. Twenty colored men are reported to be held as prisiouers. Their fate is uncertain, but the suppnsitinn is they will be killed. The number of ne groes killed will ptobably never be ascer tained, precaution having been taken to remove the dead secretly. The number of Regulators under arms is said to be five hundred. There are squads from East Baton Rouge and East and West Felicina and Wilson county, Miss. The colored people are said to 'be arm ing in self-defence. On Saturday and Sunday nights numbers of colored men crossed to Pointe Coupee to escape those who are hunting them. A second dispatch from Bayou Sara, of the date of May 15, says : There has been a regular engagement at Laurel Hill be tween the white and colored men. Three whites are reported killed. God only knows when this will end. The Country is ablaze with excitement. All the whites are armed and in the sad dle. Important to the Military. The following circular has been is:ued from the Adjutant General's Office, at Harrisburg, under date of May 13, 1876 : General Orders, No. 4. 1. The %Bowing act of the legislature is published for the information and gov ernment of all concerned : "A further supplement to the act ap• proved May 4, 1864, entitled an act for the organization, discipline and regulation of the militia or the commonweolth of Pennsylvania."
