' Of tho other nominees we need say
but little. ' They are both well known
to our readers. !Mr. Wallace has been
unauimously honored with tho third
nomination for Senator, a compliment
he well deserves, and for which he is
eminently qualified.
Mr. JdcCullough was renominated
without opposition, and will of course
bo elected by an increased majority

Greeley, of the Tribune, Is not given
to ns rough lying as tho rest of the
"blockheads" (as bo calls them) who
edit Disunion organs. Ho has about
given up the election of Grant. Last

and Indiana, and in nlloding to Pcnn

tho Democracy. This fact must be
patent to every ono who has not bis

Wo regret that w arc compelled to
inform our readers that tho Judicial
Conference, which met at Bcllefonlo
on tho lNth Instant, failed to muko a
nomination. In the main, each coun
ty adhered to its rnndldnte. Delega
ted powers ahuuld not bo discharged
in this manner. We trust that when
the Conference meets hero on Tuesday
next, a spirit of conciliation may pre
vail, and a result bo reached, in ac
cordance with tho requirements of the
district. If not, then tho Conferees
havo hut ono courso left, and that is
to adjourn sine die, acknowledge their
unfitnci-s to discbargo tho duties im
posed upon them, and let tho whole
subject bo referred back to tho people
There will Blill bo time to bold meet
ings, elect now Conferees and hold
another Conference. There is uonie
thing very Btrango, and, to us, unac
countable, about this failure to ugreo
upon a caudidalo, aftor a session of
threo days. Wo know, if delegates
do not, that Judgo Barrett is the first
choice of throe-fourths of tho Demo
crats, and ono-half of the Republicans
profor him to any other mun in the
District. The people of this county
make no unreasonable demands when
they ask hia nomination. They have
presented him with great unanimity.
unj tho whole Conference admit him
to bo unexceptionable in every partic
ular ; yet they fuilcd to finish the
work they undertook. Tho cituons
of this county fed that they have
claims upon tho district that should
be respected, and they again prosent
them earnestly to the consideration
of tho Conference, but in no arbitrary
spirit, and we hope they will bo so
received. We refrain from saying
more upon the subjcot at this time,
with the hope thut a nomination will
be promptly made when tho Confer-
once meets on the 1st proximo. In
the mean time, as the lawyers say
we will look np the case, and see who
is at fault.

SiNfitiLAR Nomination. On Friday
a primary election was held in the
Lancaster district, for the nomination
of a enndiduto for the" Forty-first

recommended by tho Republican coin
mittco of the county that, notwith
standing thedeiith of tho Hon. Thad

should bo nominated as if be was

political history of the country a man
already passed beyond tho confines of
time was nominated for Congress

produce, ore tho cause is romovod,
still moro serious consequences We
find in a Radical afternoon paper of
yesterday, the following :
RKSalUB PROCEKIlINOS.
Lnst night at nbout ton o'clock, as
tho Georgetown company of Butler
Zouaves (colored J were on their way
to tho Cnpitol to relieve the guard
ovor the remaina of Hon. Thaddeus
Stevens, a stone was thrown at them
when passing the corner of Twenty
first street and Pennsylvania avenue.
Somo of the soldiers fired in the direc
tion from which tho stono came, nnd
one shot took ett'ect in the kg of James
White, a colored waiter, who was
standing at tho gnlo of a residence
near by. A largo crowd immediately
gathered, and for a t!mo there was
every prospect of a Bcrlous disturb
ance; out tho ponce on duty, as well
as tho reservo appearing1 in force,
promnth', by surrounding the Zonaves,
checked further proceedings, and when
OTdor was restored allowed them to
proceed. There were somo half dozen
shots fired in nil, one of which passed
through tho drum.' Whito was taken
to bis residence on (J street, between
Twelfth and Thirteenth, when tho ball
was extracted by Dr. Augusta.
It is now nearly one year ago that
the attention of the authorities was
called to similar riotous proceedings
and serious breaches of the public
peace, arising from the outrageous
proceedings oi armed, uniformed and
organized companies of negroes in thiJ"'""1" ""J J,"," 8'-u"l e- J"".
district. This nuisanco and its ten
dency to create serious disturbance of
tho public peace was then brought to
tho notice of tho authorities. Tho
attention of tho President was first
called to the subject of theso illegal
armed organizations of negroes in this
district by an editorial in the Chroniele
of October 22, 1P07, stating that there
were at that timo nearly two lull col
ored volunteer regiments hero, and
that they would be reached by no such
order as that of the Mayor of Balti
more prohibiting such organizations
in that city; and, also, that the tunc
might come when they might "be
essential in preserving the peace of
the district.'
Already, it that timo, theso negro
militury companies had becomo a pub
lic nuisance They were meeting
nightly, and drilling nnd parading
with arms in their hands, creating
continually (icrioim and well-founded
apprehensions of grave disturbances
of the public peace, whon no organized
volunteer mlitnry orgatiinuliotiB were
allowed in Iho district. On tho 24th
of October,' 1807, tho articlo in tho
Chronicle atovo quoted was referred
by the President to General Grant,
then Socretary of War ad interim, "for
consideration, and any information ho
might possiss respecting tho organi
sations referred to by the Chroniele,
the nuthori:y under which they bnd
been raised and to which they were

The animus of this reference is loo
obvious to .need comment. General
d rant was just fit that time becoming
fledged ns tho champion of tho advo
cates of negro equality; and as lie
supposed without reason howovcr
that tho President's innuiry was
aimed particularly at the negroes, he
must noods, in ins reply, strike a blow
at the white militia, of which there
were in tho district no existing organ
isations armed and uniformed, as were
tho negw companies alluded to. In
his eagerness to dotend the negroes,
General Grant Booms to have forgot

others, tint it was tho white volun

The question now arises, why has
not this order boon obeyod T ft has
nevor boon carried out. Theso armod
and uniformed military organisations
of negroes hove bon permitted, with
out let or hindrance, by day and by
night, to parudo tho streets at the
head of nogro procossions of every Ue
set iption.and upon all occasions. Tho
result is seer, in tho paragraph above
quoted from a Radical aliornoon pa
per. Th responsibility of the turbu-
lenee and bloodshed thus recited reel

the roniinanils of tlm President! and
whoevei tho tifliror niay be, or H

promptly to sti ict account for his dis
obedience of ordots,
This order ol the President, so long
neglected by subordinate olUcers, and;
unnoticed by tho General, who was
not only notoriously insubordinate iu
a military sense, but used his milita
ry rank to defy arrest by tho civil
authorities for nn otlenco against tho
civil laws, should bo at onco enforced,
Tho preservation ot tho public peace
demands it. Tho failure in the execu
tion of tho order has already resulted
in ono uct of riotous bloodshed. It is
it warning of what may bo expected
to orisiie Such things cannot and
should not be permitted to pass with
out tho attontion of those whose duly
it is to preserve the public peace.
Tho President, with a foresight be
yond that of narrow minds whose od-
lv ambition is to attain high places
for which they are tot ully unlit, would
huvo averted the evils by which our
niihlie neaco is now disturbed. His
wiso nurnose has been thwarted by
tho wilful disobedience of a subordi
nate whoso dnt v it wos to execute the
