Nomination of Judge Hale for Con
gress.
We heretofore noticed that in I'otter
county Judge Hale was unanimously re
commended for ( ongress, and more recent
ly Mifflin county did the same. In Ly
coming county the People's Convention j
took action on the matter as follows:
The Convention proceeded to nominate a i
candidate for Congress, when lion. James T. !
llale was unanimously declared the choice of i
Lyconung county, by acclamation.
On motion G. W. Youngman, E. D. Trump
and Lindsay Mahaffey, were appointed Con- j
.gressional Conferees.
J a ( linton county a similar convention
lias the subjoined proceedings :
James T. Hale was nominated by acclama- '■
tion lor Congress.
In Centre county, last week—
On motion of J'etcr Wilson, of Gregg, Hon.
James T. Hale was enthusiastically nomina
ted by acclamation, as the choiee of Centre
county for a candidate for the office of Repre
sentative in Congress.
It will thus he seen that the suggestion
we advanced of a conferee meeting being
O ©
unnecessary lias been justified in five out
ft the six counties comprising the dis
triet, and will also no doubt be ratified in
. 'ullhaii. Notwithstanding this, we arc
ready to send conferees whenever a time j
and place may be agreed upon, should
such a meeting be deemed necessary.
H&rSnme Peg Beaty fools hare got up !
stories against Cul. Curtin about his abusing 1
the Dutch, one of which has been retracted
in full, and the other is no uuubt as destitute
of tru'h as its author is of honesty and de
jency.
Mr. Bates and a Tariff.
The Democrat don't like any reference
to Mr. Bates's anti-tariff vote in the House
last winter. We have only to repeat what
we said before, that it would have been
more consistent in Mr B. to have voted
for the tariff resolutions and protested
against the one declaring the Legislature
had no faith in Buchanan than to vote
against them and then turn round and
protest he was a tariff' man ! By the by
would it not be as well for the Douglas men
to know whether Mr. Bates, if elected, will
.
vote f.r Beef Bigler for Senator, in case
he is the nominee of that party nest win
ter, by no means an improbable event ?
Our opiuion is that the democratic nomin
ee is a Breckenridge man, and that Judge
Coplin was not far wrong when he declared
the whole ticket to be composed of straight
outs, that is, opposed to Douglas.
fiiajKfhe Democrat has some terrible
news! The People's Party ticket it seems
is in favor of Lincoln fur President, the
man who thinks this country was not made
for niggers but for white men, and there
upon the Democrat is astounded. As
one ticket has thus been classified, we
now demand to know who Bates, Waream,
McN ear and Cunningham are for ? The
Democrat says Douglas is the regular nom
inee—.ire they for him or against him ?
Voters, put it at them when they come to
electioneer, for a man who has not the
moral courage to tell who he is in favor of
for President of a nation like this, i 3 not
fit to he trusted with any office.
Is Douglas the Regular Nominee ?
We have often been asked this question,
and in answer thereto give the follow
ing facts, which ought to be conclusive to
any unprejudiced mind.
After all secessions, as well as the refusal
of certain delegates from Georgia and Ar
kansas, together with the entire delegations
from Texas and Mississippi, to occupy their
seats, the National Convention at Balti
more yet retained 424 delegates, or 212
electoral votes ; being ten more than two
thirds of the electoral votes of the whole
Union. But some of these delegates (as
c v
. the case of Georgia) refrained from voting, i
; the majority of the delegation having re- j
tired ; others (as the ease of Arkansas), al
though full delegations, and authorized, in
: case of any secession, to cast the whole
i vote of their State, preferred only to
| east that which would be a fair pro- !
portion betweenthe seceders and them
| selves; and yet others (as in the case of 1
Delaware and portions of the delegations
from Kentucky and Missouri) declined to
vote, but refused to secede. This accounts
for the fact that, upon the second ballot
by States, Mr. Douglas received only 181A
votes, Mr. Breckenridge receiving 104, Mr.
Guthrie 4 votes, the States of South Car
olina 8 and Florida o having authorized no
delegates to any Convention in Baltimore.

On motion of Mr. Clark of Missouri, at
the instance of Mr. Hoge, of Virginia,
the question was then propounded from
the chair whether the nomination of Doug- i
las should or should not be, without fur
ther ceremony, the unanimous act of the
Convention and of all the delegates pres
ent, the chairman distinctly requesting
that any delegate who objected (whether
; or not having voted) should signify his dis
| sent. No delegate dissented; and thus,
at last, was Stephen A. Douglas unanimous
ly nominated in a Convention representing
more than two-thirds of all the electoral
votes as the candidate of the Democratic
party.
Mr. Douglas is therefore in our opinion
the '• regular nominee," and any comprom
ise with or recognition of another body,
comprising less than one third of the con
vention, is to recognize disorganization
as superior to the old democratic doctrine
that the majority ought to rule and the
minority submit.
The People's Party of Centre county
i have placed in nomination the following
| candidates:
, Assembly —Cook Duncan.
Sheriff —George Alexander.
Prothonotary—John T. Johnston.
Register and Recorder—Wm. Longweli.
Commissioner—John McCalcuont.
Auditor—Jonathan Eckard
#a?°The Democrat wants to know when
Lincoln endorsed increased duties. The
Chicago platform asserts the principle that
in laying duties "sound policy requires such
an adjustment as to encourage the in
dustrial interests of the whole country,
which language the Democrat has for years
contended moans " protection. Besides,
his friends in the U. S. Senate, 21 in num
ber, and 91 out of 94 in the House, voted
for Morrill's Tariff bill, a fact which clear
ly indicates whore Lincoln stands. Hav
ing thus answered the Democrat, we now
ask it to toe the mark by naming the detn
oerats in the Senate and House who voted
fur that bill, and also to state whether it
endorses the following resolution re-affirm
ed by both the conventions which nomin
ated Douglas and Breckenridge. Now, no
backing out or equivocating —here is the
democratic creed :
" Resolved, That there are questions con
nected with the foreign puliey of this coun
try which are inferior to no domestic ques
tions whatever. The time has come for the
people of the U. S. to declare themselves in
favor of free seas and PROGRESSIVE FREE
TRADE throughout the world, and by sol
emn manifestations to place their moral in
fluence by the side of their successful exaui
pie."
Speech of Judge Douglas at Norfolk, Va.
On Saturday evening a week Judge Doug
las delivered an address at Norfolk to an aud
ience of nearly six thousand people. The
address occupied two hours in delivery. The
following is taken from a report in the Her
ald :
In the middle of his address a slip of paper
was handed to him. It was cut from the
Norfolk Daily Argus, and contained two po
lite questions for Judge Douglas.
Having ascertained the questions thus pro
pounded, be said thereon, ! am not in the
habit of answering questions propounded to
me in the course of an address, but on this
occasion I will comply with the request, and re
spoud very frankly and unequivocally to
these two questions.
The first question is, if Abraham Lincoln
be elected President of the United States will
the southern states be justified in seceding
from the I nion ?
To this I emphatically answer " no." The
election of a mau to the Presidency by the
American people, in conformity with the
Constitution of the United States, would not
justify any attempt at dissolving this glori
ous Confederacy. Now I will read to you
the next question, and then answer it.
(Question. If they, the southern States, se
cede from the Union upon the inauguration
of Abraham Lincoln, before he commits an
overt act against their constitutional rights,
will you advise or vindicate resistance by
force to their secession ?
Voice". "No, no!" " Bell men say no,
Douglas."
Mr. Douglas. I answer emphatically that
it is the duty of the Presideut of the United
States, and all others in authority under him,
to enforce the laws of the States as passed by
Congress, and as the courts expound them.
And I, as in duty bound by uiy oath of fidel
ity to the Constitution, would do all in my
power to aid the Government of the United
States in maintaining the supremacy of the
laws against all resistance to them, come
from what quarter it might. In other words,
I think the President of the United States,
whoever he may be, should treat all attempts
to break up the Union, by resistance of its
laws, as Old Hickory treated the nullifiers in
1832.
After saying that the only true and osten
sible object in making a Breckenridge ticket
in the North was to give Lincoln every one
of those states, he says the secessionists af
ter doing this, " come forward and ask me if
I will help them to dissolve the Union in the
event of Lincoln being raised to the Presiden
tial chair. I would tell them no—never on
earth." [Cheers and cries of "good."

Hollow ay's Pills.■-Much Truth in a small
compass.—Derangement of the Stonuirh and Bone's.—
Few people are conversant with the manner in which
the hlooil is created, or that the stomach with the
gastric juices, the secretions of the liver and the
action of the lungs are the chief agents for convert
ing the food we eat into blood, hence the great neces
ity for preserving the stomach in a sound and healthy
condition. Nothing lias yet been discovered more ef
fectual for this than Holloway's famous Pills, which
act directly on the stomach, liver, bowels and circula
tion. In hillious disorders, indigestion, eostiveness
and all consequent complaints, headaeh, piies, and
debility there is no medicine in use which insures such
certain and beneficial results.
Female Health! Female Health!
Thousands of Females suffer from derangements
pec uliar to the se.x. First, and most common among
these is, Female Weakness or Whiten, or Lturorrhea,
with its constant attendants, Ijnssitude. Prostration,

a "It is Better to Save than to Destroy.'
e History tells us of a cc.Dquerer who died
from a pestilence caused by the dead bodies
of the vanquished. As a set off against such
1 a libel on humanity, we will point to a phil
anthropist whose sole aim it is to overcome
f disease, and rob the grave of victims. The
man to whom we refer is a foreigner, an
3 Englishman, but can n .where be looked
upon as an alien, for he knows no distinction
of race or creed in his efforts to rescue his
- fellow creatures from the grasp of death.—
j Our readers will readily surmise that we re
fer to Thomas Ilolloway, a name well known
" in this country and wherever the English
. language is spoken. The popularity which
his marvelous remedies have attained in all J
' parts of Europe and America, is without a
parallel in the annals of medicine. Here, in
j the United States, they are recognxied as in
dispensable household curatives. All classes |
• resort to Holloway's Pills in those diseases of
. the stomach, liver, and excretive organs, so
prevalent in this climate, and no preparation
is so extensively used as a dressing for wounds, j
3 bruises, uleers, leprosy, cancers, tumors, and
, other external injuries and diseases, as llul j
j loway's Ointment.
j If a world wide reputation, founded on the
- successful issues of twenty years' warfare j
- with disease, is any compensation for the la
- bors of the physician, Ilolloway has unques- ;
e tionably achieved it. The patronage of mon
-1 archs, "the gratitude of the million, the hon
-2 j ors of science, the eulogies of the press—all i
- are his. If lie possessed the power of the |
prince in the fairy tale, of traversing the
earth invisible, there are few portions of it
where he would find himself a stranger. lie j
would meet with his remedies among the ah- !
• origines of America, the luxurious races of i
Asia, the blacks of Africa. Not only are j
they standard medicaments of civilization in
; its old domains, hut they seem to be the com- ;
9 panions of its march toward every point of |
a the compass. It is no easy matter for any
. product of Europe to penetrate into the inter- j
ior of China ; yet, Holloway's Pills and Oint- ;
ment are there. Nay, more, they are actu •
r ally advertised in the heart of that exclusive
empire. To deny the intrinsic value of ar
ticles that have been recognized as specifics
f.r inumerabie disorders in all parts of the
globe, would he ridiculous. A community
inav be deluded, but the whole world cannot
' he deceived for twenty years in a matter of
9 such vast moment to every human being, as
the preservation of health and life.— C/ticayo
