“ We all do fade as a leaf; and we
must acknowledge the force of Longfel
lows beautiful verse:
" Life Is shorthand time is Heeling
And oar hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like mullled drums, are beating,
Funeral marches to the grave.”
A reunion of the officers and em
ployees of the old Portage railroad, and
the canal and other public works of
Pennsylvania is to take place at the
head of Plane No. 0, Summit, Cambria
county,in September next, at the Man
sion Hotel, in tnat place. Jno. Dough

oration. Governor Geary and other
prominent ex-olllcials of the works,
are to be present.
DUE TICKET—NOW FOR VICTORY!
We place at the head of our columns
this morning the honored names of the
nominees of the Baltimore Democratic
Convention and the Cincinnati Liberal
Conservative Convention for President
and Vice President— Horace Geee
r.EV of New York, and B. .GraTz
Brown of Missouri. The policy of ac
cepting this ticket by the Baltimore
was the proper policy, and
thus believing, we advocated it in these
columns. We believe—indeed, we are
confident—that under the lead of Hor
ace Geeelev, we can drive the van
dals from the high places they now oc
cupy and disgrace, and restore the
government to its original purity. To
effect this high and holy purpose, we
are willing to cooperate with anybody ,
or any party of men. What we want
and must have, is peace and honesty
We can no longer afford to prowl
around the grave-yard of dead issues.—
We must look the present in the face
and meet it.
“ We have turned our backs on the
past; we stand in the present and look
to the future. The past is lost to us;
the future is ours; let us make it a
glorious one.” This eloquent sentence
is the whole question in a nut-shell.—
And who used this languaguo? That
man of giant intellect—that fearless
and upright Democratic statesman,
Senator Hendricks of Indiana, who
has recently been placed in nomination
for Governor by the Democrats and
Liberal Bepubiicahs of his groat State.
Ho is one of the ablest defenders of
Democratic principles in America, and
will be elected Governor of Indiana by
20,000 majority or more. Hendiucks
has been our beau ideal , and it gives us
pleasure to follow his lead. Again, to
use the language of the New York
Tribune, (Greeley’s paper,) “ no broad
er or simpler creed was over promul
gated. Liberty, honesty aud..peacc
against centralization, corruption, and
perpetual war. To fail with such ,a
cause would bo glory and gain. To,
succeed with it will be the greatest po-,
Utica! victory over achieved for the
cause of good government, and the
greatest moral victory ever gained for
the cause of peace and goodwill among
men.”
Then, Democrats, Conservatives—nll
naeri who are thinking more of country
than of party—fall into lino and assist
hy your influence and your votes, to
throttle the most infamous combination
of men that ever disgraced our once
pioud but now humiliated country.—
Lot 113 remind our readers and all oth
ers that the masses are in terrible earn
est just jiow, and llavo resolved to
think and not for themselves, not only
in regard to national affairs, but in
regard to county, city, town and town
ship affairs. Tho people are supreme—
the press is no longer tho muzzled
instrument of the venal and corrupt.—
Thank God, tho people are thinking,
more of country than of party, whose
highest interest demand that wo should'
bury the animosities engendered by
the late cruel war. What wo want,
we repeat, is forgetfulness of the past.
Tho elevation of Horace Cure ley to
the Presidency will rescue us from the
taunts of foreign nations, and tho
United States will oneemoro command
respect. We are now regarded by all
Europe as a nation of thieves, with a
horse-jockey and trader in jobs at our
head. It is time to wipe out the
disgrace we have endured for nearly
four long years.
Democrats! our. duty is a plain one;
lot us discharge it as becomes men who
love their country. Lot us give to
Gref.lf.y and Brown our united-,
cordial, zealous support, and victory
will crown our efforts.
, Andrew Johnson’s term as Presi
dent began in ISGS. . General Grant’s
term began in ISG9. According to the
official report of the Register of . the
Treasury, (page 1507) dated October 30,
187 s, the following payments have been
made on account of tho public debt:
In ISC’. OB 57.T3.a5i1.3j0 52
ISlitl 07.
1807 08.
1898 09.
This is from July 1, ISCS, to July 1,
ISGU. Qcn. Grant came in on the 4th of
March, ISC9, hut of course, provision
for any payments made up to July had
already been made during tho .previous
session of Congress.' -
The payments on the same account,
so far-as reported by Mr. Allison, the
■Register during Grant’s time, are as
follows: ‘ .
In ISCO 70 ; 5500,180,3.15 37
1670 71 i 1 53i,007,031 32
Now, if such of our Republican friends
as are able to “ do a sum” in simple
addition, and simple subtraction, will
' hunt up a slate and pencil and add to
gethei-tiie. payments made during the
two last years of the much abused
Johnson’s time, and then add together
the payments during Grant’s first two
years, they will probably conclude us
wo have after deducting tho greater
from the less, that Johnson paid SIGI,-
G73,15G 74 more of tile public debt dur- ■
ing his last two years than Grant did in
his first two years. We arc free to
admit that this carries no merit to
Johnson’s account, nor does it carry
any dismerit to Grant’s ; but as the -By
Authority presses, who jump as Grant’s
underlings pull tho string, lie so per
sistently- upon the subject of Grant’s
paying the debt, it ocoured to us just
to stick a pin in these wind-bags.

Til.. \[lillll Convention In St'niuu,
Atlto’elo.ek the doors of the Opera
House, in which the sessions of the con
vention are to lie held, were thrown
open, and iiva very little time the bal
cony was crowded with spectators; but
very few persons were in the upper gal
lery. The Opera House is very plain
itself; but the decorations, which aro
similar In design to .those at the Be- 1
publican Convention in Philadelphia,
are very attractive, a give the place a
fine appearance.
Among the diotinguished visitors on
the platform was the Hon. Bevordy
Johnson, whose entrance was greeted
with applause.
At ten minutes past 12 o’clock the
convention was called to order by Au
gust Belmont, chairman of the Nation
al Democratic Committee, who said :
MR. BELMONT’S SPEECH.
Gentlemen of the Convention—lt is
again my privilege to' welcamo the del
egates of the National Democratic Con
vention, who have met in order to pre
sent to the American people the candi
dates for President and'Vice President,
for whom they solicit the suffrages
of the Democratic and conservative
voters of this great republic. At our
last National Convention, on the
4th of July, 1868; I predicted that
the election of General Grant would re
sult in thegradual usurpation of all the
functions of the Government by the
Executive and by Congress, to be en
forced by the bayonets of a military
despotism. The vast majority of the
people of the United States have with
grief and sorrow seen the correctness of
that prediction, and they look forward
with fear and apprehension to tlio dan
gers which aro threatening us, if by the
re-election of General Grant, tbo policy
thus far pursued by the radical party
will be continued.
The thinking men of both parties
have become alive to the fact that we
are now living under a military despot
ism, over-riding the civil authority in
many Stales of tiro Union. That, by
the enactment of arbitrary and unconi
stitutional laws through a depraved ma
jority in Congress, tiro rights of these
States are infringed and trampled upon,
and that Ocsarism and centralization
are undermining the very foundations
of our Federal system, and are sweep
ing away the constitutional bulwarks
erected by the wisdom of the fathers of
the republic. These abuses have be
come so glaring that the wisest and
best men of the Kepublican party have
severed themselves from the radical
wing, which is trying to fasten upon
the country another four years reign of
corruption, usurpation and despotism,
and whatever individual opinions wo
may entertain as to the choice of a can
didate whom they have selected in op
position to GoneralGrant. there’can
not ho any doubt of the patriotic Im
pulse whieli dictated their action, nor
can any fault he found with the plat
form of principles upon which they
have placed their candidate. The reso
lutions of the Cincinnati C'qnveptfou
are what the country require, and they
must comnifiml the hearty support of
every patriot throughout the- vast ex
tent of our land. In the struggle which
is before us, we must look to principles
and. not to men, and I trust that no
1 predilection or prejudices Will deter us
from doing our duty to tho American
people. General Grant has been a good
and faithful soldier during our civil
war. Ufa stubborn and indomitable
courage has helped to crown the Union
arms with victory, and tho American
people have rewarded his services with
the most unbounded generosity.
I am willing to concede that his in
tentions on taking ' the Presidential
chair wore good and patriotic, but he
has most signally and sadly failed in
tho discharge of the high trust imposed
upon him by the confidence of a grate
ful people. He is at this moment the,
very personification of the misrule
which is oppressing us, and his re-elec
tion is fraught with the most deplora
ble consequences for the welfare of tho
republic, and endangers the liberties of
tho people. ,
On tho other hand, Mr. Greeley has
been heretofore a bitter opponent of the
Democratic party, and violent attacks
against myself individually, which
have from time to time appeared in his
journal, certainly do not entitle him to
any sympathy or preference at my
hands; but Mr. Greeley represents the
national and constitutional principles
of the Cincinnati platform, and by his
admirable and manly letter of. accept
ance, he has shown that he is fully alive
to their spirit, and that if elected, he
means to carry them out honestly and
faithfully.
Should you, therefore, in your wis
dom, decide to pronounce in favor of
tho Cincinnati candidates, X shall, for
one, most cheerfully bury all past dif
ferences, and vote and labor for their
election with the same zeal and energy
with which I have supported'hereto
fore, and mean over to support the can
didates of tho Democratic party. The
American people look witii great solic
itude to your deliberations. It is for
you to devise means by which to free
them from the evils under which they
are suffering; but in order to obtain
that end you are called upon to make
every sacrifice of personal and party
preference.
However much you might desire to
fight tho coming battle for our rights
and liberties under one of the trusted
leaders of the Democratic party, it will
become our duty to discard ail consid
erations of party tradition if the selec
tion of a good and wise man outside of
our own ranks offer better chances of
success. You must remember that you.
are here not only as Democrats, hut-as
citizens of our common country, and
that no sacrifice can be too great which
she demands at your hands. And now,
before I propose to your acceptance the
temporary Chairman of this conven
tion, permit me to detain you one mo
ment longer by a few words of an en
tirely personal character., ,
With my present action terminates
my official functions as chairman of the
National Democratic Committee, an
office which, by the confidence of my
constituents and tho courtesy of my
colleagues, I have held for twelve con
secutive years. During all that time I
have striven with honest zeal and with
all the energy and capacity which God
has given me, to do my duty faithfully
to the party and to the country,
and to render myself worthy of
■ the .great trust confided -to me.—
While I was grieved and deeply morti
fied to see at various times my motives
and actions misconstrued by several
Democratic papers, and that some even
descended to the fabrication of the most
absurd falsehoods concerning my social
and political conduct, I have had the
proud and consoling satisfaction that
my colleagues on the National Com
mittee, and all those who knew me,
did justice to the integrity and purity
of my intentions in all the trying situ?
aliens in which ray official position had
placed mo, and let me tell you, gentle
men, that there is no one amongst' you
who bears a warmer and truer affection
to our party and our country than I
have done and ever shall do.

You love this great republic, “ your
native land,” as you do the mother who
gave you birth; but to mo she is the
cherished bride and choice of my youth
—the faithful and loving companion of
ray manhood, and now that I enter up
on the sere and yellow leaf of life, I
cling to her with all the recollections of
the manifold blessings received at her
hands.
I retire from tho position which I
have held to lake my place in the rank
and file of that great party whose na
tional, constitutional, and conservative
principles have claimed my unwaver
ing allegiance for the last thirty years ;
and as long as the Almighty will spare
my life, I shall never falter in my love,
and devotion to our party and our
country.
I have the honor to propose to you as
your temporary chairman a distin
guished and venerable citizen of Vir
ginia, a grandson of the patriot and
statesman, Thomas Jefferson. It is an
auspicious omen that a scion of tho au
thor of tho Declaration of Independence
is to inaugurate tho struggle of tho De
mocracy for freedom and equality for
every American - citizen, and against
oppression and tyrany in our fair land.
Mr. Belmont’s remarks were fre
quently interrupted by moderate ap
plause. The mention of Mi. Greeley’s
name was received with loud demon
strations of approval. So also wore tho
speaker’s personal references to himself.
At the conclusion he said, “ I have tho
honor to propose the name of Hon.
Thomas Jefferson Eandolph, of Virgin
ia, as your temporary chairman.”—

Mr. Bandolph took his seat amid
cheers.
SPEECH OP MR. RANDOLPH', TBMPOBA-
BY CHAIRMAN.
Mr, Bandolph said:—l am aware
that the very groat honor conferred on
me by this body is due to no personal
merit of my own, but is<i token of re
spect to the State from which I came,
and a recognition of other circum
stances possibly adventitious.
I am perhaps the oldest member of
this body, and a life of eighty years
spent in the Democratic republican
party constitutes me a senior member.
I remember freshly every Presidential
contest from the first election of Jeffer
son to the present time, and I can say
with truth that I remember none which
involved higher questions of personal
liability, local self-government, honest
administration and constitutional free
dom than the present, or one which de
manded of our party and our people a ■
calmer or more earnest recourse to pru
dential,principles.
It strikes mo ns the duty of this hour
and of this body to wrest tho Govern
ment from the hands of its present des
potic and corrupt holders, and to place
it in honest hands to,restore to the citi
zen everywhere tho • proud conscious
ness of personal right’, and to all tho
States perfect integrity of local self-gov
ernment. This, with the recognition
of the supremacy of the civil Constitu
tion and the law, will, in my judgment,
discharge nil our present duty.
The foregoing remarks wore deliver
ed with much on orgy and effectiveness,
considering that the speaker is nearly
an octogenarian, and were repeatedly
cheered.
The Bov. Henry Sheer being present
ed, addressed the Throne of Grace.
Frederic O, Pripco, of Massachusetts,
was chosen temporary secretary.
Mr, Madignn, of Maine, moved that
A. O. Perrin, of New York, be appoint

Agreed to.
Mr. McHenry, of Kentucky, offered
a resolution of thanks to Mr. Belmont
on retiring as chairman of the National
Committee.
' Tho chairman ruled that all resolu
tions were out of order until the organ

■ Mr. Lambertop, of Pennsylvania
moved a resolution that' each State be
called in alphabetical order,'that tho
chairman of each delegation may name
their ipembors of the several commit
tees, and iphy also, in case of contest,
naraolho contestants.
Tho Pennsylvania dploggfes opened
business by offering a resolution for
palling tho roll of States, to tjlllo\y tho
chairman of each delegation to name
members’ of the various committees.—
Efforts were made to amend the resolu
tion. The resolution was ilnnily adopt

of Massachusetts,' began the call of/tho

What means this union on a common
platform, andj this proposed union on
the same candidates—n union so sud

teurprisa its friends and to confound its
enemies, which comes as the winds

opinion as the great storms always run

means all this ? There are some tilings

Baltimore, July 10—p. m.
• At 10} o’clock a. in., the convention
came to order, and the committee on
resolutions, through their chairman,
recommended the adoption of the
Cincinnati platform entire, as embra
cing all that is essential, [Loud cheer
ing.]
In order that there should be no
misapprehension as to these resolutions
Mr. Barr called lor tlipir reading in full
to the convention, which was done,
each plank in the platform being re
ceived with applause, The one terra
plank was especiallly well received.
ROSOLUTIONS.
The following are- the resolutions off
ered at both.the Cincinnati and .Balti
more Conventions:
First. —We recognize the equality pf
all men before the law, and bold that it
is the duty of the Gdvornment, In its
dealings with the people, to mete out
equal and exact justice to all of whatever
nativity, race, color, or persuasion, reli
gious or political.
Second.—We pledge ourselves to main
tain the union of these States, emancipa
tion and enfranchisement, and to oppose
any reopening of the question settled by
theTbirteentb, Fourteenth and Fifteenth'
amendments of tbe-Constitutlon.
Third. We demand the immediate and
absolute removal qf all disabilities Im
posed on account of the rebellion, which
was finally subdued seven years ago, be
lieving,that universal amnesty will re
sult In the complete pacification of all
sections of the country.
Fourth. Local self-government, with
impartial suffrage, will guard the rights
of all citizens mere securely than any
centralized power. The public Welfare
requires the supremacy of the civil over
the military authority, and the freedom
of persons under the protection of the
habeas corpus. Wo demand for the indi
vidual the largest liberty consistent with
public order, for the States self-govern
ment, and for the nation a return -to the
methods of. peace and the Constitutional
limitation of power.
• Fifth. The civil service of the govern
ment has become a mere instrument v pf
partisan tyranny and personal ambition,
and an object of selfish greed. It is a
scandal and reproach upon our free insti
tutions and breeds a demoralization dan
gerous to the perpetuity of republican
government. We, therefore, regard; a
thorough reform of the civil service as
one of the most pressing necessities of
the hour; that honesty, capacity, and fi
delity constitute the only valid claims to
public employment; that the offices of
the Government cease to be a matter of
arbitrary favoritism and patronage, and.
that public stations become again posts of
honor. To this end it is imperatively
required that no President shall be a
candidate for re-election.
Sixth. We demand a system of Fede
ral taxation which shall not unnecessari
ly interfere with the industry of the peo
ple, and which shall provide means nec
essary to pay the expenses of the Gov
ernment, economically administered,
pensions, the interest on the publio debt,
and a* moderate reduction, annually, of
the principal thereof, and recognizing
that mere are in our miast'iionest, buc
irreconcilable differences of opinion with
regard to the respective systems of pro
tection and free trade, we remit the dis
cussion of the subject to the people in
their Congressional districts, and to the
decision of Congress thereon, wholly
free of Executive interference or dicta
tion. .
.{Seventh. The public credit must be
sacredly maintained, and wb denounce
repudiation in every form and guise.
Eighth. A speedy return to specie
payments is demanded alike by the high
est considerations of commercial morali
ty and honest government.
Ninth. 'We remember with gratitude
the heroism and sacrifice of the soldiers
and sailors of the republic, and no act of
ours shall ever detract from their justly
earned fame or the full reward of their
patriotism.
Tenth. —We are opposed to all further
grants of lands to railroads or other cor
porations. The:publio domain should be
held sacred to actual settlers.
Eleventh. We bold that it is the duty
of the government, in its intercourse with
foreign nations, to cultivate, the.friend
ship of peace,.by treating with all-on fair
and equal terms, regarding it alike dis
honorable either to demand what is not
right, or to submit to what is wrong.
Twelfth. For the promotion and suc
cess of these vital principles; and the
support of the candidates nominated by
thls.convention, we Invite and cordially
welcome the co-operation of all patriotic
citizens, without regard to previous polit
ical affiliations.
Mr. Barr explained that the resolutions
were the Cincinnati platform {exactly,
nothing added, nothing excluded. This
platform was adopted in Cincinnati by
all the States except Delaware, Missis
sippi, Georgia, and Oregon. He moved
, the adoption of the report, and moved

SUMNER’S POSITION,
HON. J. K. MOORHEAD FOB GREELEY,
Washington? July 12.—The political
advices from Pennsylvania at the Gree
ley and Brown headquarters are very sig
nificant. Gen. J. It. Moorhead, long a
Republican Congressman from Alleghe
ny, has declared for Greeley, and will
run as ah indepeudentcandidate for Con
gress against General Neeley. He will
be supported',by the manufacturing in
terests and cannot be defeated. .Hon. J.
W. Riddle, the late Republican candi
date for Mayor of Pittsburg, is also out
for Greeley.
HON. TOM. MARSHAL AND WM. STEWART.
Hon. Tom Marshall, the ables Repub
lican stumper in the western counties,
will soon take the stump for Greeley.—
Hon. William Stewarc, formerly M, C.
from Mercer, and one of the moat influ
ential Republicans in the west, has writ
ten here that he will support Greeley.—
He saye: “X think the time has arrived
when it is necessary to break up the cor
rupt rings which control Grant’s admin
istration. Ej;-Senatora London and Ma
son, of Bradford county, have also de
clared for Greeley, and nearly all the
leading Republican politicians of Craw
ford county, including a majority of the
Republican county officers, have openly
espoused the Liberal cause.”
PROMINENT COLORED MEN FOR GREELEY.
Several of the most intelligent and
wealthy colored men of this city have de
clared for Greeley. Among them is Dr.
Augusta, Professor in Howard Universi
ty ; James Wormley, the celebrated ca
terer, and William Smith, law professor
of Howard University. The latter has
gone to North Carolina to take the stump
for Greeley,
THE OAMERON-FORNEY WAR,
General Cameron is still here. It is una
derstood that he had demanded the dis
missal of several poor devils in the de
partments who are suspehted of being
against Hartranft. He made diligent in
quiry yesterday to ascertain whether
Colonel Forney had any friends in
office, but he was unabliS to discover
them. He says all dlaafleoted Republi
cans must be driven over to Greeley—
their offices taken from them, and their
reputations confiscated. He declares that
if Hartranft is defeated in October, Grant
will bo overwhelmingly defeated in No
vem ber. Grant got his fingers burnt by
his interference in the McClure-Gray
contest in obedience to Cameron’s de
mnads, and ho does not mean to inter
fere in local politics again.
MR. SUMNRR’s POSITION.
Both the Greeley and Grant parties are
extremely anxious to capture Mr. Sum
ner. While the Grant men know that
under no circumstances can they hope
to secure hia support for . the man on
horseback, they want to do the next beat
thing, namely, to keep him entering ac
tively into the campaign for Greeley.
Mr. Sumner is in sympathy with Gree
ley, but he don’t want to commit him
self until the canvass has fairly opened.
In the meantime all the negroes wno ap

Tho judge then- discharged the iurv

resumed the custody of Stokes and took
him back to tho tombs. . An immense
