An Eloquent Address.— Tbo address of tbs Dcm ocralic Central Committee of thii Stalo will bo found on our first page to-day, and needs few words from us to commend It to tho people of Pennsylvania. It is very ably written, and lakes the highest and bold* est ground in favor.of the Democratic parly—the policy of supporting tbe National Constitution—and strongly criticises of the Whig parly on (be great question of tbo day. po Capitalists.— Several valuable farms are offered Tor sale In our advertising columns of to day, to which we Invite the attention of capital ists. A Good Yield.— Mr. Pctlh Baker, of Monroe township, left at our ofiice, a few days since, a fine large onion, on the stalk of which wo counted twelve onions of good sue, and there was a quan tity,bfaeed also on the same stalk! That is some thing to boast of. Who can beat it I . Fiat at Tun Barracks.— A fire broke out in ono of the Urge stables of tho Carlisle Barracks, on Friday afternoon last, and in a,very short time the building and a targe portion of hay, stray/, oats, &c., were entirely destroyed.

Hot Dmi and Cool Nights.— These hot days and cool nights—theso sudden changes of the weather—are what causes so much dysentery careful guard over them, and there is little danger. Children's clothing should bo changed as often as the ( weather changes—so should every body's—that Isj If they wear very thin clothing wh«ta it,ia hot. If the bowela are kept warm; and not crammed with too much green stuff—or any thing else, for that matter—there is no moro dan ger of dysentery than in the dead of winter..

He will find his mistake, however, and when lie attempts to convince the people that ho is a faithful public officer, they will begin to on. quire bow it is that ho can,bo.faithful to his (rust, and ybl be absent from his office for three consccu-, live months at t» time? It is strange (hat Gov. Johnston should oven for a moment suppose that ho can be'rc>olecled. Ho is, in our oplriion, spending a groat doal of time, a groat deal of thd people!* money, and subjecting himself to considerable Inconvenience—and all for nothing. lie might as well attempt to force tho Susquehanna to run up stream, as to try to turn tho pooplo frotn Col.

Tho people of Pennsylvania aro for tho Consti tution and tho Union, and will never,'by their votes, elevato an avowedj abdUUbnwl to tho .first office within their gift. Nor VviU.lt bo forgotten that Gov. : Johnston, no longer ago’ than last winter,.favored the passage *of a. mammoth loan bill, introduced into tho Scnalo, and supported by tho Federalists, by which ONE MILLION OF DOLLARS was to bo added to our Slato debt, by borrowing from; tho banks that amount In the shape of irredeemable . shinplaslors, which' would have devoured the sub*' stance of the people for ,an indefinite period!— I Thanks to a Democratic House of Representatives, this-allempl to increase the Stale debt, was promptly ’ voted down. That Col Bigler will, bo elected-Governor, and that 100 by a sweeping majority, we regard as eh. tirely certain. No stratagems, no efforts to blind the people, can prevent it. His majority will bo increased from the fact of Gov, Johnston neglecting bis duties to attend to electioneering. This is the way the people have of rebuking a faithless public servant. Col Bigler’s majority cannot be less than 12 or 15,000, and may reach 20,000; To doubt this at this time would bo a reflection upon tho ster. Hog sense and true patriotism of tho people of Penn sylvania. TUB COUNTY CONVENTION. , Rrmember, Democrats, tho. Delegate elections take place on SATURDAY NEXT, August 1,6, in the different townships, Boroughs, and Wards, be* tweed 2 and 6 o’clock in the afternoon; Wo once more appeal (b our Democratic friends to turn out at (hose primary elections. It too often happens in many of the townships, ihat a lialfdozonof wire* pullers control, (ho delegate meetings, and appoint Delegates to suit themselves. This should not be permitted. Lot the whole party in. tho different townships speak out—lot them all turn out, and vote for such, men as .delegates as will represent them honestly and fairly, and who havo tho welfare of the Democratic party at heart. It is of the utmost im* parlance that “good men and true” should compose tho County. Convention about to assemble. It is Important that we should have an unobjectionable tlckoVplaoed before the people—a ticket, composed of men against whom ho objections dan bo rnsdo Give os a good ticket—let all sections of tho county, faad alt Interests, os far as possible, havo a fair and just proportion. Lot all havo a fair chance, and fair play. Thus will harmony and good feeling bo so* cured, add.a triumph at the polls follow* Tho. Delegates composing tho Convention should frown down all attempts at bargaining. "My town ship shall go for your candidate, if your township will go for mo," lean argument frequently used by men who are. candidates fur office, and who know they have no strength of their own. Men who thus bargain for a nomination, arc unworthy of support.' Let' all bo placed on-an equal footing, and eland upon tbeir own merits. Ho who will barter away the vote of a township is a sorry representative of the principles he professes to revere. We have no personal feelings to gratify in making these suggestions. Our only objeot is to see fair dealing and fair play. We have no "friends to reward nor enemies to punish 1 * in the Democratic parly. Wo direct our remarks against no particular man or set of men. Wo speak in behalf of the whole ptriy. Wo recognize no cliques, and despise party traders. Wo desire the success of tho Demo cratic ticket this fall, and hence our anxiety that an unobjectionable ticket may bo nominated. Once more; then, fellow Democrats of Cumber land, wo urge upon you tho necessity, nay tho duly, of attending tho Delegate elections on Saturday next. Select your best men to ropiosonl you in tho County Convention—men ufhoncsty, and ofun doubted democracy, and who have no sinister objeofs in.view. Do this, and, our word for It, a ticket will bo nominated that will bo alike creditable to the Convention and tho Democratic parly. “ The. looos object to Gov. Johnston canvassing tho Slate.
