The ornaments put np by the Radicals
on Wednesday last are as follows;
For Governor, Henry M. Hoyt, ol
Luzerne county.
For Lieutenant Govornor, Charles
W. Stone, now a Slate Senator, from
Warren county.
For Supreme Judge, James P. Slor-

At 10.-30 a. m., the clans bad assem
bled in the Grand Opera House, and
were called to order by Chairman
Wilson. Tbe first business in order
was the election of a temporary Chair
man. Mr. Palmer (Gen. Hoyt's right
bower) nominated John N. Purvianco,
of Butler county. General Koontz then
nominatod A. J. Kanffinao, of Colum
bia, who was tbo representative oi'Uit
nnnosition ol Uenorsl llovt. the bal
lot resulted in 149 votes for Porviance
and 94 for KaufTinan, and Purvianco
was declared olocted.
Tbe gontloman spoke briofly, refer
ring particularly to the mission of tbo
Republican party and declaring tbat
tho interests of tho country could be

Mr. U. h. Magee moved tbe appoint
ment of a Committee on Contested
Scats, and was made Chairman.
The appointment of Committees on
iteso utions and 1'ermatnent urifiiiu
zation was then made, delegations
naming their mombers.
WbiTo these committees were being
namod the Committee on Contested
Soats wore engaged in a little room to
the right ol tbe stage, wbere the diller-
encos were seuica.
An attempt was made to adjourn for
two hours, but the friends of Jloyt
fought the motion down ; but the chair
announced no business would be trans
acted until the committees returned,
Although the Convention doclined
to adjourn it was fully an hour before
any business was transacted, tbo uom
milteea holdinir sessions in toe interim
The delegates and spectators enjoyed
themselves as best they could, and
some of them, when they returned
seemed to have been having an excel
lent timo, judging from their exuber
ant spirits.
At 1:15 o'clock Chairman Purviance
called the Convention to order, and tbe
Committeo on Contested Seats report
ed through Mr. Magee. Thero wen
six contests in Philadelphia, and three
were given to each of tbe opposing
tactione.
Hon. Wm. Reeder presented tho re
port of tbe Committee on Urrtnizs
tion. They reported thonameof Mayor
stokloy as permanent fresidont, witb
fifty ice Presidents and fitly Secre
taries. The report was adopted, and
wbon tbe gentleman ascended tbe plat
form he was roceived witb enthusias
tic applause. He declined to make
any extended spoocb, but said he hop
ed tho nominations would be made in
such a manner that Pennsylvania
would roll up an old fushioned ma
jority.
Tho platform was then presented
by uon. jobn uesana. Jl was adopt
ed without discussion, and the rosolu-
tino nrotestinir airainst the navment
, n o i -y
ol Southern claims and against freight
discriminations were received witb an
plauso. Tbe following is an abstract :
The first resolution expresses an ad.
berence to tbe protective policy and
hostility to free trade in all its aspocts,
and especially to tue Wood tariD.
The second asserts tbat, labor being
the source ot all weaitb, a is tbe duty
of tbe nation to protect and encour
age it, so aa to secure profitable em
ployment to both labor and capital.
Third Tbat it is tbe duty of Con
gress to aid in developing American
commorce and promote tbe prosperity
of the manulacturing, agricultural,
mining and industrial interests ot the
country.
Fourth That the public lands be
long to the people and should be re
served exclusively to actual settlers,
so tbat the landless may be encourag
ed and aided in occupying tbem.
Fifth That Congress should oxer
ciso its constitutional power to regu
late internal commerce, so as to pro-
vent discrimination in ireigut rates.
Tho sixth denounces tbe payment
of Southorn rebel claims, and holds
tbe Democracy responsible for tbe pre
sentation of such claims, amounting to
over t3vu,uuu,uvu.
The seventh indorsesGovernorUart
ranft's administration warmly.
After this part ol the work had been
concluded Hon. Henry M. Palmer, of

' Congressmen t'larkson X, Potter, of
New York, Introduced a resolution in
:W -V , J. .1
tatives last Monday, ' tiroixMing
thorough investigation into tbe charges
of fraud, forgery and pcrjsry on the
part of the mon who turned over tbe
electoral votes ot Florida and Louisi
ana to Mr. Hayes. Mr. Potter's reso
lution does not slop at tho vulgar crime
of the scoundrels who falsified the vote
of these two States, but it reaches
for the "visiting Statesmen" who en
couraged smaller rascals, like Wells,
Anderson, and their compeers, and
promised them reward and immunity
for their orime against a free and hon
est ballot.
The Radicals fought tbe resolution
vigorously and ajlopted every dodgo to
defeat the resolution by oalling the
yeas and nays in frivilous motions and
at other times absent themselves from
tbe ball and thereby prevent a quorum
This conduct continued until Friday,
whon the Democrats mustered 148
yeas and one nay and passed tho meas
ure, not a single Radical having voted
on the question. - That evening the
Radical Congressional Committee lued
a proclamation to tbe voters of tho
United States severely denouncing the
Democrats in passing Mr. Potter's reso
lution in the House. They assert tbat
it is a plot to unseat President Hayes
and call upon all who opposed the re
bellion of 1861, without distinction of
party, to rally again to the support of
law, order and stable government. It
is signed by Engetio Halo and George
C. Gorham. From this time forward
the bloody shirt will be waved very
vigorously. What a pity tbat tbe Cam
eron Stute Convention overlooked this
matter.
GOOD ADVICE.
Uncle Jake Zieglcr in bis Butler
Herald divests himself of this pieoe of
editorial advice: "J. Blake Walters,
Esq., ol Clearfield, baa been appointed
Chief Clerk in tbe Treasury Depart
ment by Col. Noyes. We know Mr.
Walters well, and we congratulate Mr.
Noyes in having boon so fortunate as
to secure tbe services of so excellent a
olerk, as well as so estimable a citizen.
The allegation that the Treasury De
partment is to bo run in the same old
groove as it was nndor the Mackey
and Rawlo administration, is without
wsrrants. Editors who prefer to deal
fairly with publio officers and assert
the only interest they have in tbelr so- j
lection is tbe publio good, would ex
hibit a commendable modesty if they
would just content themselves quietly
until some real cause of complaint ex
iets. This business of discounting tbo
discbarge of public duties to an incumb
ent's discredit before he has taken his
seat, or at least boforo he is scarcely
warm in it, is any thing but honorable.
It shows a deposition to find fault
wbotber cause exists or. not, or may be,
because some certain person wbo is dis
tasteful to thorn has bad influence
enough to procure the appointment ot
a clerk. We shall treat Mr. Noyes
fairly. During the campaign which
resulted in his election we did so, and
tbe fact tbat neither be nor Mr. Schell
thought worth while to come out hero
where so much was done lor both to
select a clerk shall not induce ns to find
objections where nono exist."
The Natioral Candipate at Home.
Tbe nominee for Governor, S. R.
Mason, Esq., is a citiaen of this place
and so well known in this county that
bo requires but briol mention. His en
dorsement, however, by the labor in
fluence in tbe National party will be
an anomaly. So long as the railroad
companies owning line in this oounty
needed an attorney Mr. Mason acted
in that capacity. When tbe coal ope
rators in tha oounty desired to dispos-
their laborers because tbey would
not comply witb tbe requirements of
the mine-owner, Mr. Mason has in al
most every instance been the attorney
of tbe mine-owners. Tbe last instance
that we now recollect ol was tbe dis
possessing of some forty or fifty ten
ant at Stoneboro. What sympathy
is or can be between Mr. Mason and
the laboring men of Pennsylvania we
know not. His interests in the post
have all been on the otbor side. Poli
tics, however, make strange bed-fellows,
and we "shall see what we shall
see." Mercrr Dispatch.
Mas. Jani Pitman's Will. Tbe will
of Mrs. Jane Pitman, tbe cremation of
whose body at Washington, Pa., some
months ago, was the subject ol a good
deal of comment throughout the coun
try, was probated at Cincinnati ou Wed
nesday afternoon. She bequeathed her
jewelry and other articles of personal
interest to her daughter Agnes, and
her real estate, etc., to her husband,
Ben Pitman. She made this deliver.
ance in the will on cremation : "Inas
much as I have long oonoeived it to be
the moat sensible mode of disposing of
my body, I desire and direct that my re
mains be forwarded to Dr. LeMoyne,
to be cremated in tha furnace built by
him in Washington, Pa. Any other
property tbat I may own at the time
of my death I devise to my beloved bus-
band, to be bia absolutely, and I ap
point my said husband to be sole exeo-
utor of my will, and I desire and direct
tbat be shall not be required to execute
any bond, nor file any inventory of my
estate.
Timpiraroi KtrosM. In alluding
to this subject, Judge Orvis, a few
weeks ago in a speech before a Tern
perance Convention at Bellefonte, bit
tbe nail on the head in this way: "In
regard to the State Prohibition Con
vention, he thought it was all "bosh.'
The temperanoe people have law
enough oo the subject, and what they
most need is moral courage and com-
mon sense to enforce it. He said our
policemen aigned petition) lor license,
and the constable, in ardor to secure
political patronage, failed to see any of
the daily violations of the law. Out of
these things flow all the evils of In
temperanoe. We have all tbe laws on
the subject we need, only see that they
are etrserreg. ljess law ana more
oral integrity would still be better."

who was struck by lightning in jan
uary, and a New Hampshire man wbo
was frozou to death In July. This year
and this May,. the meteorological ecen
tricilies are not confined to any local!
ty. A chattering of teeth comes to us
by telegraph from tho North and from
tho South. Tboro baa been an epide
mic, II we may sayjio, of frosts, not on
ly up in Minnesota, where they are ac
customed to such anachronisms, but
away down In Virginia and Old Ken
tucky. New Hampshire and Vermont
have boon visited by a snow storm
which made the Green Mountains white
and tbe Wbita Mounlaius whiter.
There have been light frosts in curtain
parte of Pennsylvania, and heavy ones
In others. Various section! of our own
State have boon similarly visited.
There is the usual difference ol opinion
respecting tbe effect of this untimely
atmosphoie upon tbo crops.' Hope is
exhibitod in some quarters; in others,
perfect confidence ; in still others, griev.
ous apprehension, but, upon the whole,
the reports aro tolerably cheerful. Tbo
fruits and early vegetables have suffer
ed tbe most severely ; but the grain
crops, though put back a little, have,
witb some exceptions, survived unharm
ed tho full of the thermometer. It is too
early, perhaps, to estimate the damage
which has been dono to production,
and a groat deal will depend upon tbe
temperature of tho next few days. Tbe
genontl feeling docs not appear to be a
despondent one, by any means. The
trial has been severe, but it might have
been more so. , -.
Price and Easy. The Radicals.beld
their State Convention at Harrisburg
on last Wednesday. In fact some of
tbe candidates and their delegates ap
peared ou the ground on Saturday pre
vious, and worked things up quite
warm by Tuesday noon, so much so,
that it looked as though the ring would
bo broken tho next day. In ordor to
avert a catastrophe of this kind, Robt,
W. Mackey, Matthew S. Quay, Jumes
S. Rutan and A.. Wilson Norris, re
paired tea stone house on the river
bank about 12 o'clock on Tuesday
night, and there, in tho presence of
half a dozen of invited guests, made
up tho ticket Hoyt, Storrett, Stone
and Dunkel. The two hundred and
fifty-one delogates assembled in tho
Theatre the noxt day and ratified what
tho ring had done, and in this way en
emies wero reconciled, Hayes ignored,
Hart run ft puffed, and tho new alliance
of the Cameron-Sherman family solid
ified. A Humiliating Confession. The
Cameron platform 'adopted at Harris
burg, by tho knaves and slsvv of tbat
dynasty, the other day, conceded tbe
depression and general ban k ru ptcy that
nrevai s throughout tho State, in all
business affairs. This is a disgraceful j
admission. This party, or clan which
baa ruled the "Church and Slate," in
this Commonwealth, for EIGHTEEN
YEARS, and now the Deacons and
Elders Mackey, Camoron's, Quay,
Rutan, etc., stand np in broad day -light,
at the Slate Capital, and confess tbat
tbey have ruined tho morals and bue-i
ness of the State, and nominated Hoyt,
etc. and have tbe impudence to ask
tbe people to tolerato tbem for four
years more. Can fraud and imperti
nence bo rendered more transparent
Tbeir confession is conclusive proof to
every sensible voter, that thia faction
is unfit to govern a free Commonwealth
and deserves to b defeated in No
vember.
Just so. Some husbands aro wor
ried about "that wife of mine," moth.
era about "that son, or daughter of
mine," eto., but none of these subjects
bother us. However, we are some
what annoyed about "that Convention
ot ours," which meets in Pittsburg to.
day (22d.) It may be considered Im
pertinence on ou? part, hut we will
suggest a ticket that if nominatod by
the Convention, will go through with
a majority of not less than 25,000
Fot Governor, Dill, of Union county
for Lieutenant Governor, McClollan,
ol Allegheny; for Supreme Judjro,
Ross, of Ducks; for Secretary of In.
ternal Affairs, Africa, of Huntingdon
That s our ticket, but should the Con
vention see fit to nominate some other
candidates equally worthy, they shall
have our undivided support.
Hot Shot. Dr. Taylor a delegate
in the Radical Convention, from Ches
ter county, fired some red hot shot at
bis party leaders. The editor of the
Philadelphia Xorth American, in allud
ing to bis remarks says : "Every word
that he aaid stung liko a whlplah oc
the cars of thoee who felt themselves
to be present in no sense as indrpend
ent delegates, but purely as so many
beads to be counted in an apportioned
tally-list. Had his declaration ol dis
content come carlior In the day It is
possible that he might havs awakened
some oi bis colleagues to the absurd!
ty ana the degradation ot a service
which never asks more than a com-
mand a degradation which bends tbe
neck without a murmur at tbe yoke.
Fudob. The Philadelphia Times
pronounces the Democrats in Congress
"thin skinned," or words to that effect,
for rejecting the amendmont offered by
tbo Radicals to Mr. Potter's resolution,
so as to investigate the election in Ore
gon as well as Florida and Louisiana.
The editor la no doubt aware tbat Or
egon was investigated by a oommittoe
beaded by Senator Morton, and it prov
ed such a miserable failure that it kill
ed him, and tbe report has never seen
daylight. If Morton failed to find any
fraud there is no use in any body else
spending tboir time and money in that
direction. Why don't the Ksdlcals place
Morton's committee report on record ?
AitoTHia Wabhino. A Baltimore
telegram of Thursday, the ICtb Inst
says: "Mrs, .Anna Barbara Koon, of
Dayton, Ohio, with eoveral others, ar
rived in this city last night and took
rooms at tbe Park Hotel on Camden
street, intending to sail on the steam
ship General Welder, for Bremen, to

" 1'BlXCiriES, XOT MEX."
This caption we placed at the bead
of I ho llepunucAN nearly eighteen
fell into our hands, and the remarks
of the editor thereon we fully endorse.
He says : "The members ol the Dent
ocratie party of late years seem to have
forgotten in measure their duty as
individual parts of that great political
organization which has done so much
to add to the territory, and to build
up and preserve tbe institutions of one
ol tbe most beneficent forms of gov.
eminent evor brought into existence

tnoir rignis to life, ' liberty, property,

tho dictates of conscience. Heretofore
it bas been one of the cardinal features
of the party, as a party, and its intli
vidual membership also, to ignore mon
when principles were at stake, and
this fealuro it was that enabled the
party to wield so great au influence
in all its earlier campaigns. The dif
ferences arising between mon aspiring
to leadership upon minor points at is
sue, were lull to themselves to settle
the party, as a party, looking only to
the success of tbiwe great principles
wine u lorin the basis ot its orgamza
tion and which should over be hold
paramount in all its action,
"Tbo doctrine that tho paity, as an
organization, has a claim upon the
service of its over' individual member,
and that no individual member has
any claim whatsoever upon tho party,
is tbe doctrino fvhich should obtain
to-day, as it ihi, iu tlw past, that the
party may regain the proud positioo
it once occupied in tho history of tho
government, 'fnnciples, not men,
must be sgain the shibboleth of Dem

plete ascendancy in tho affairs ol gov
ernment,. State and Federal. Men
seeking to lead and obtain official po
sition, upon the ground that the party
is Indebted to them lor services ren

into which they liavo fallen. Jf a man
be bonest and capable of tho ponition,
biiu me party nianiicsts a ucsire to re
ward him for any service he may have
rendered by placing him in official po
sition, well and good, such action wo
would cordially endorse. Hut we have
said, and have reiterated, that if tbe
Democratic party desires to be suc
cessful in the future, as it was in the
past, the young men who are coming
to the front and taking sears at its
council fires, must ignore tho idea of
man followiiig at thosacrifico of prin

pentonal character, and draw the line
strictly as between what is supposed
to be duo the individual member from
tlie party, and that which is duo the
party from the individual member."

AVhy our contemporary mahilosls

district bas furnishod tho .Supreme
Court with a Uus'.on. Burnside, Wood
ward and Knox, all of whom were ed
ucated and sent from out Common
Pleas bench, and we still have ihmo or
four more left. We also have two ex
Governors Higler and Curtin resid-
amon u tt,ul Uttn rush material
for at least two more, if noccsxury, as
vacancies occur. This is not all. Gov
Bigler also served a term in the V. S.
Senato, thus showing that tho XXtb
Congression.il district raises and culti
vates staiosmen, and no other seclion
of the State has furnished any purer
or abler mon. It is not sections so
much as talent, cnorgy and integrity
that is wanting. And if our neighbors
are too modest to come to tbe front
witb their candidates, we shall not be
surprised if tbe ticcntirth wot.ld koep
jogging along in the same old rut, and
eventually get away with a Prosidunt
and a lot ol plenipotentiaries before
tho thing winds up.
Sound Sis-SB.--The House at Har
risburg has a bill bolore it, No. 149,
tbe objoct of which is to prohibit tho
banking institutions of this State from
paying interest on deposits. As only
those banks having tbe least credit, and
which are necessarily least able to pay
such interest, would be affected, the
Ledger thinks the legislature would
seem to be doing pretty near tbe right
thing by inhibiting tbem from temp
ting depositors by tbe offer of a small
rate of interest to dojiosit with tbem,
at the risk ol loss ol both the principal
and interest. Banks are not created
for the parposo of bocoming borrowers
ol money ; they are presumed to be
londers of money ; but wben tbey en
ter trio market as T)orifjwan, as thry
do by paying interest on deposits, tlicy
bocomo competitors with men in legi
timate .business and help to run up tbo
prico of money on those for whom
banks are enlablinh.-d to accommodate,
Tho true policy ol safe and sound bank
ing is against the payment of interest
on deposits.
MiBCiiur Ahead. The (iirnrd
House Tlegistor was embellished with
the following names on Thursday
night : M. S. Quay, late Secretary of
the Commonwealth, but now Recorder
of Philadelphia, at a salary of $30,000,
Gen. J. K.Seigfiid.ol Pottivillo, llart
ranfVs Coal Insticctor, and wholesale
and retail dealer of the Mollie Ma
gtiires, W. P. Wilson, Chairman eto.
Why Camerori and Maekcy't name do
not appear on the roster, we cannot
conjecture.
Domestio. That ontorprising party
organ, the Williamsport Bulletin, in al
luding to that oolebntted hero martyr
over in Indiana, says: "General Har
ry White says 'many shallow jokes
have recently been ottered at the ex
pense of these beautiful rivers,' tbe
Kisyimlnetai and Conemaugh, but a
contemporary oruolly retorts that the
jokea were uttered at his expense,
whore tbe shallowness really exists I
This is a Hoar.i. An exchange
says: Tho boy was afraid that his
drawing would aot be recogniaed as a
horse, so he wrote undornealb, "This
is a horse." Hayes knows that the
peoplo do not recognise him as Presi
dent, so be wrote underneath his veto
message of the silver bill, "R. B. Hayes,
President ol tbe United 8taloa." Thia
waa never done by a genuine Presi
dent.
Qutr.R. A few years ago it was
treason aot to support "tba gorsm
ment," as tbe Radicals always styled
the President. But It seems to be a
bunko' joke now to bold a Blato
Convention, and, yet, fortfot to endorao
or say anything about "lb govern
ment. Iiow qnick treasoa wears oat
witb some people, and by those, too,
who made ll so "orllons" at ono time.
