C. THOMSON, chnirui'in Drm. Stand, f'rnn. THE TWO CANDIDATES, Independent of their political views, we ask the people, of all parlies, to compare tile two candidates for Governor ol tills State. "Is lie capable, is he honest?” were questions formerly asked when a man aspired to a public position in Penn sylvania. We have no desire to assail Oen. Grarv, or to speak of him in harsh terms. But, we do contend that he is not a suitable man to lie (tovernor of Penn sylvania, Xoone who is well acquainted with Gen. llearv will prctencPto say that he is a : man of ability, or that he pos sesses even ordinary sagacity. His trump ed up military character was his whole stock in trade before the -Shoddy Conven tion, ami it was that which procured him the nomination. The Shoddyites have so often succeeded by humhnggery, that u lias at length become their settled pol icy. They no longer nominate for office the representative men of their party— those who stand up squarely for their in famous ami detes table principles -hut they seek out venal men of the Democratic) party, those who have been " life-long” Democrats, anil confer the honors upon them. A man like Ivurc urM, possessing talent, ami a Jaeohin-Repiddiean from conviction, must he setaside for the '‘life long Democrat, ” t In ary, who, as we have remarked, is utterly disqualified for the position of Governor of Pennsylvania.— Why is this? Because the Jacobins arc afraid of the people; because they are afraid to stand up to the work and toe the mark fairly and squarely for the dogmas they advocate. They prefer to lake a " life-long Democrat." and run tin- r;-k a.-to hi.-policy. Thi- i- ici <.niy mea:. and cowardly, hut ii i- di-dmne-*.

Let tlieiu remember the "Buckshot war" and tlit- Bitncr administration. and then a<k themsej ve= ir they can, as good Penn sylvanians, again permit this desperately wicked and dangerous man to guide the ship of State. Cod forbid that a curse like this should befal our onee proud old (.'oui monwealtli. But to prevent it, the people —the white men of Pennsylvania— must he up and doing. The di.-unionists are wily and ready to resort to any means to accomplish their villainous designs.— Mon of Pennsylvania!''* l awake! arouse! shake oft' the dew-drops-that glitter on your garments, anil on to victorv!" Thk mere trailing politicians, who live by agitation ami excitement, may rave as they please at the manly stand the President has taken against the destruct ives in Congress. But the people of the country are heartily with him. The ac tive business men, and the laboring peo ple desire a speedy restoration of the Un ion and the reestablishment of the (Gov ernment in its constitutional action, that pecuniary burdens may he diminished by the return of harmony between the States, and the public debt redeemed by the increased productiveness of a united country. These agitators have so long fed upon the misfortunes of the country that it is hard to wean them; but the. mass of good citizens, North and South, have resolved to get rid of them, and in the language of President Johnson, they must get out of the way.'' 'J’jik Xew York TTcmhl of a recent date, says there is no improvement in business in that city,-and nearly all kinds of .Merchandise are a drug in the market rind can be sold only at low prices. The local elections held throughout tho Ftate almost invariably indicate an enor mous increase of Democratic strength.— We have carefully watched tho columns of our exchanges, in order to glean re liable information of the results, and have the satisfaction of announcing to our read ers that in so far as the spring elections may betaken as an indication, everything looks encouraging for the great contest in October. The Democratic localities gen erally report increased majorities over last year, while even in the Republican strong- vote of the Opposition is rapidly diminishing. Our friends, who were lie coming despondent under frequent de feats, may cheer up and go to work with renewed courage. The skies are daily be coming brighter. We have victory in our grasp if we wilt but make due exertions to secure it. Democrats of Cumberland county and of Pennsylvania !—the duty before you is plain. You must no to ivouk, ani> hr oanizk! The signs of the times point to a glorious Conservative victorydn Octo ber, but to make it .wc and compmb', vor .mi st work. Thank fortune, the peo ple are at length opening their eyes to the enormities that have been practised upon them. Many are now convinced that the mock professions of " loyalty," so freely indulged in by the leaders and .-pouters of the Jacobin party, were false and de ceptive. Once more these desperate po litical gamblers have shown their hands ; once more they array themselves against the union of these States. Formerly they signed petitions and sent them to Con gress asking forndissolution of the Union; now, having, by fraud and villainy, ob tained a majority in both branches of Congress, they directly vote eleven States out of the Union, thus defeating the very object our "hoys in blue’.’ had in view when they met Lee’s veterans on the field of battle. They are therefore disunion ists —“ traitors," as President Johnson calls them —and on the second Tuesday of October next the people of Pennsylvania will pass judgment upon them. The .Sa tanic Stevens, in one of his recent disun ion speeches, remarked that tie heard the rumbling of an earthquake. Aye. aye; and that earthquake will hurst upon him and his traitor band in all its fury mi the 3th of October. The white men of tlieold Keystone are terribly in earnest, and they have pledged themselves to stand by their rights and a whole Union, let who may interpose. Negro suffrage and negro equality they will not tolerate, nor will they tolerate those who advocate these dogmas. They are in earnest, we say. Then, Democrats, wo repeal that it be comes you to be active, vigilant, zealous. Assault the enemies of our country wher ever found ; attack constantly, for in this contest we are theassailingparty.

The Convention which nominated Gea ry for Governor was a curious oonglomora tion. It was composed in great part of renegade Democrats.. It was called to order by a renegade Democrat (Cessna); it was presided over by a renegade Dem ocrat i Covodc i; the resolutions were draft ed by a renegade Democrat ; Forney i; its nominee for Governor is a renegade Dem ocrat (Geary); and his prominent .com petitor was a renegade Democrat (Moore head i. This body of renegade Democrats, presuming to act for (lie Republican par ty, treated witli contempt the only Re publican candidate before (be eon voli tion—Hon. \V. W. Ketehum, of Luzerne —and passed a resolution condemnatory of Senator Cowan, who lias been a life long member of the Whig and Republi can parties; while they indulged in ful some eulogy of Stanton, another rene gade Democrat. We trust the old con sistent members of the Republican party will duly appreciate tire modesty of these new recruits who have thus kindly un dertaken to “run the machine” for them. It must lie rather galling to such men as Alex. McClure to bo compelled to take back seats in the Synagogue ; but they ought to have the shrewdness to join the Democracy for a few years, after which they could get anything they wanted from the Republican party, for the mere asking. Strange*as it may seem, there is iwlietter recommendation in the eyes of the Republican party of to-day, than that of having been “a life-long Demo crat. ” It is quite a brain on the Democ racy to be compelled to furnish all the brains and fully half the .candidates of their opponents; but so long as tiie Re publican nominees don't "go back” on us any worse than Andrew Johnson lias done, we rather guess we’ll be able to bear up under it.

Might makes right with (hem; amt it was not dltlicult to trump up it contestant lor'every man they wanted to oust. The fearless and eloquent Voor hoes was the llrst on whom their vengeance fell. The Committee had reported almost unanimous ly In Ids favor; hut Stkvkns declared ; “Car sal vation may depend on one vole —Voorhoes must goout; ” and the report was recommitted to the Commit tee, in order that its members might per jure themselves, and report against their own solemn deelarat ion of Hu* week before. II is a notorious fuel that one day the Committee al most unanimously reported that I>. W . oorliees was legally entitled to his seat; and without hearing a word of additional evidence, they re-' ported, on a subsequent day, that he was ao/legal ly entitled to his seat, and the House sustained the action of the Committee. Was ever political duplicity more shamelessly apparent. Mr. Voor hees well remarked, “ I need not stop to charac terize such a proceeding with epithets. It will find Us proper estimation in the minds of all hon est men here and elsewhere.” The next shining mark lor the blade of the rad ical axe was Senator Stockton, of New .Jersey; and strange as H may seem, then! was nut even a contestant m Ins case. Hut his presence was un pleasant to the loyal nerves of Hmmier and Wil son, and the radicals made up their minds to eject him. Tin- question came up for Huai action in the Senate, on 1-Tklay last. The Judiciary Committee made an almost unanimous report in favor of Senator Stocton retaining his seal—sev- Un out of the nine members being Republicans, and six of them concurring in the report with the two Democrats, making in all eight out of nine members of the Committee. The ground upon which this great fraud was sought to be perpetrated was the fuel that tin. 1 N’ow Jersey Legislature had decided that a plurality of votes, and not a majority, should be necessary to elect. Tile Sumner wing of me radicals had mustered every possible man.

I Mi'itovKMKNTS.— For the last four or live years, the spirit of improvement ap pears to have been dead in our boiongh, as duringdliat time little or nothing lias been done in the way of building, repair ing, &e. And yet our population has been steadily increasing, and business of every description lias been comparatively brisk. Men seem indisposed to invest money in building as long as labor, material, and taxation continue at so high a figure, and when, too, they can obtain a better inter est upon their money by investing in gov ernment securities, which arc not mbject tn local taxation ! During the last season, we know of the erection of but five buildings w'ithin the borough limits. On Pomfrot street, Mr. Wii.mam Hau.ek lias erected two neat brick tenements; and on Rorth street, Messrs. Mahoniikt.mkh A Wktzki, have pul up three handsome and convenient briek buildings. This wo believe was.the sum total of borough improvements for the year 18(15. In the course of the com ing summer, it is thought there will lie at least a few additional buildings erected. There are many men of means in Car lisle who have always been content to live in rented houses, preferringtolnvest their money otherwise than iif building homett for themselves and families. The grow ing scarcity of houses, however, will com pel such persons either to build or buy dwellings, go to boarding, or leave town. They cannot expect, if building is not a profitable investment, that others should furnish them with houses. Tire sooner they are driven to this alternative the better. A Good Chance.— Any energetic young man who feels disposed to spend a few days in canvassing his neighborhood for subscribers to tiie Voeenteek, will stand a elianeeof getting a SUS Sewing Machine, which will he awarded to the person bringing in the largest list of cash sub seribers before the first day of June. See announcement in another column. Ovn NnwTmv.v Council. —The Town Council elect met on Tuesday evening of lust week, and organized by electing Mr. Jesse D. Khinehnrt temporary President, and Mr. James M. Masonhoimer tempo rary Secretary. After the transaction of some unimportant business, a permanent organization was effected by electing Gen. E. M. JIiDDLE President. The following appointments for the ensuing year were then made. Opposite the name of each officer we print the amount of In’s salary: Secretary—S. P. Hampton. sjno High Constable —Robert McCartney, Sr., 100 Treasurer—Jacob Rhecm, 100 Clerk of Market—Alex. S. Lyne, UK) Street Commissioner—Alfred Ilhinohart, 10 Street Regulators—John Natcher, John Martin, Thomas M. Ruird. Tax Collector—Samuel Wetzel. Lump Lighter and Night Policeman, North Ward—A. Woods Walker, 120 Lamp Lighter and Night Policeman, South Ward—Janies Hackett, 120 Janitor—George Taylor, The committees announced hy the Pres ident, are, Finance—J. Mr. Weakley, John F. Steel, and J. I). Rlunchart; Ordinance —A. K. Rhcom, J. M. Weakley, and God frey Bender; Streets—John T). Oorgas, Andrew Kerr, John F. Steel; Bumps— Frederick Corhman. We lire pleased that the majority of Council have continued in office Mr. A. S. Dyne, tile efficient Clerk of Market. Sir. L. is a Democrat, and lias made one of the host officers we have had for years. Attentive, energetic, and obliging, his re appointment was demanded by almost onr entire population. Destructive Finn.—On last Wednes day night, between one and two o’clock, a fire broke out in the hotel stable of Mr. T. 15. Weakley, on South street. When tile alarm was given, the whole building was in flames, and the utmost efforts of tlie firemen were powerless to save it.— The new stable of Mr. James Eakin, ad joining the hotel stable, was also consume c-d, and also a new two story frame build ing belonging to Mr. John (Jutshall. Here the flames were finally subdued by tlie firemen, and the further destruction of property prevented. Tlie fire is sup posed to have been the work of an incen diary. Tlie hotel stable was insured, but tlie others were not. Another Kike. —On Monday night, shortly after midnight, the barn of Mr. A nit ah am Phillips, on the lot near tlie corner of South tfud Hanover streets, im mediately opposite Weakley’s Hotel, was discovered to be on fire. The building, being frame, was soon burned to tlie ground ; and with it two line horses-were burned to death, and a large quantify of oats and hay destroyed. We learn that two young men who were seen running from the stable just as the flames burst forth, have been arrested on tlie charge of arson. What to Do. —-If any of our young Democratic friends have no sisters of their own to whom they would "like to present a sixty-five dollar Sewing Machine, let them hunt up Homebody else’s sister, and go to work at once to earn the prize by sending in the largest list of yearly cash subscribers to tlie Volunteer before the first of June. ♦ Tim Markets. —On Wednesday next, tlie 4th of April, the summer arrangement for the Carlisle Market will go into effect. Our citizens will then be enabled to pur chase their marketing at an early hour in' the morning, and attend to their daily pursuits without hindrance. Tlie new arrangement will also afford satisfaction to our country friends. Saxporij is Coming-! —The Inevitable, original “Bam”— with ids Philadelphia Opera House Company—will be -with us on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week. Banporh can get a crowded house in Carlisle any time lie chooses to pay us a visit; and with ills present com bination of “Stars,” he will bo prepared to send every one away delighted. See advertisement elsewhere. How to Serve Them.—We advise our \oung hi l l ,\ friends of the Democratic persuasion, if tlie young fellows don’t think enough of them to get (licm a sixty live dollar sewing machine, when it 'is going “. dirt cheap,” to cut their acquain tance “ immediately, if not sooner.” l>.vi>i;ri Mill Burnkh.—On Monday night Isisft, between eleven and twelve o'clock, the men who wore working in the paper mill of Messrs. WM. U. M fi.r.rx & Son, near J’apertowu, were astounded bv some of the neighbors rushing in mid crying “ your Mill is on (Ire!” The noise of the machinery hail prevented them from hearing the roaring of the Haines, and after their perilous position was made known they hail barely lime to escape with their personal etlects. Nothing was saved from the mill, lint a few bundles of paper—nil the valuable machinery with which the mill had been refitted but a short time since was totally destroyed. The loss of Messrs. Mnllin & Son will reach *l-,Ot>o or SI5,01)0, all of which is, however, covered by Insurance. T-he lire is supposed to have been communicated to the roof from the chimney of the en gine room, though the end of the building it which the tiro was first seen was eighty- five feet from this chimney. The mill destroyed was known asdlie “Zug Mill,” and joined the larger establishment of the Messrs. Mulliu, whie.h was only saved by the exertions of tire neighbors, and by Hooding the building with water from tho pumps. Our Mt. Holly friends seem (o lie unfortunate in the matter of fires; and we think theirlarge establishments would warrant them in getting some kind of a portable fire engine. The Messrs. Mulliu still continue the manufacture of news ami hook paper iu their large mill. 'l’ni-; Glhahd Hor.SK, Pjiu.auku’hia. —We notice, with much pleasure, by our city exchanges, that our old friend, Sir. H. W. Kaxacia, (a mi live of this county,) lias purchased the “ (tirard House,” of which he is id present the popular land lord. The 11 (firm'd" is one of the most desi rable properties in Philadelphia. Its lo cation, as most of our readers know, is on Chestnut s(., directly opposite the “Con tinental,” in the most fashionable and at tractive section of the city. The building is a hugeJu'own stone structure, occupy ing half a square, and is one of the most valuable hotel properties in the Cnited States, Wo have not been definitely in formed as to the price paid, hut understand that the property, as it stands, including furniture, is valued at over three hundred thousand dollars. The “ (firm'd," under its present man agement, lias been very successful, being patronized by a large portion of the busi ness men of our own Slate, who visit Philadelphia. We congratulate Mr. Ka x.uia on the purclia.se, and at the same time congratulate the traveling public upon the fact that this popular, well ar ranged house will continue under the control of a gentleman who is so widely known and esteemed, and who knows so welt “how to keep a hotel.” F.u.mxu P hicks.— The hearts of t.hou- saud-s of consumers of goods are gladdened with the gradual bulsure decline in prices which is noted from week to week. Peo ple with small incomes now find it easier than it was a few months ago to make both ends meet. . (fold has fallen about nine per cent, since the Ist of March, and coal, provisions, dry goods, clothing, and all the necessaries of life are following the downward tendency of gold. In Sew York, the hotel-keepers have under con sideration the propriety of reducing the price of board. Every step towards a re turn to a specie basis, although it may cause gome stagnation of business at pres ent, will certainly be welcomed by the groat mass of our people. Carlisle Brass Band. — The members of tliis excellent Bum! treated some of our citizens to a “serenude" on .Saturday night last. Among otliers, the senior editor of this paper was favored with their kind attentions, when they “ discoursed some most eloquent music,” for which they have our hearty thanks. This “ Band” has Just been formed, its members are young men belonging to the borough, and they deserve and will doubtless receive the fostering cave of our citizens. Graduated.—We are pleased to notice the name of oiir young friend, Frank A. (1 UTS II ai.L, in the list of Graduates of the University of Ponnsyl van ia. Dr. Gutshall read medicine with Dr. Zrrzuti of this place ; he is a young man of rare ability, and wo feel confident lie will make his mark in the professional world. We un derstand Dr. Gutshall intends opening an office for the practice of his profession in this place, and wish hi in abundant success, Shade Trees. —As spring approaches, people naturally have something to say about shade trees. We would advise our friends, who love a cool, refreshing shade in summer, to plant trees at once. The cost is trifling. Every person, whether in town or country, having an unoccupied space around their dwellings, should im prove it by planting cither fruit, shade or ornamental trees. Clean Up.— Would it not be well for our 11 Borough Fathers,” now that they have been inducted into office, to have the streets, gutters, alleys, &c., cleaned up?— Too much attention can not be given to the work of cleaning our town of every thing calculated to engender disease. This matter ought to be attended to at once, as every one seems determined that the cholera shall come hero during the com ing summer. Let our citizens, in the ab sence of any compulsory measures, clean up their yards'and alleys. The Borough Election.—Our friends pf the Herald ran out their big cannon, over the result of the Borough Election. They have been brandishing their fire arms ever so'valorously, since the war en ded / As under the peculiar provisions of the Borough Charter, this was the year for the Bepublieans to get control of the Council, and as the Democracy elected their entire Borough ticket, with a single exception, we don’t see anything for our neighbors to brag about. Claim Agents. —Soldiers and' sailors who make application forbounty andback pay, should be very careful witli whom they trust their discharge papers. Since the introduction into Congress of the bill for the equalization of soldiers’ bounties, hundreds of people of doubtful reputation have been scattering circulars broadcast over the country, stating that the bill will soon be passed, and advising soldiers to send their papers to the writers of the cir culars at once, so ’that the bounty can bo collected as soon as the bill passes. Sol diers cannot bo too careful of their papers, ami in selecting agents to prosecute their claims should choose those only who are of established reputation.
