On Tuesday of last week, at thesugges- j tion of the Mifflin Conferees, the Union \ Conference for this Congressional District j met at Tyrone, Blair county, and organ- j ized. Cambria, Blair and Mifflin were , fully represented, but the Huntingdon Conferees were not present. The Con- ! ference, after consulting, adjourned to ' meet at Huntingdon the same evening.— At the adjourned meeting the Hunting don Conferees presented themselves, and the Conference at once proceeded to nom inate a candidate for Congress. On the ! first ballot Cambria and Blair voted for i Mr. Morrell, Huntingdon for Capt. Brice X. Blair, and Mifflin for Col. Taylor. On the second ballot Cambria and Blair, and Mr. Mendenhall from Mifflin, (7) voted for Mr. Morrell, Huntingdon (3) for Cap tain Blair, and Messrs. Woods and Henry of Mifflin (2) for Col. Taylor. Mr. Mor rell was then declared the unanimous choice of the conferees. The nomination of Mr. Morrell is one eminently fit to be made, and without in tendingto detract from the merits of those who have represented the district, we think we can safely predict that he will prove an honor to his constituents. The floodgates of party vituperation and de traction will of course be let loose upon him, and we shall also hear the stale old cry of "iron nabob," &c.: but in this case such silly stuff will but react on its au thors. Our district is emphatically an iron district, and with that interest our prosperity is involved to a far greater ex tent than most people imagine. Mr. Mor rell's letter to the Iron and Steel Associa tion, written a year ago when he was no candidate, which will be found in our pa per to-day, is so appropos to this subject, that we commend its perusal to all class es, and especially to workingmen. To meet objections which have already been bruited around, we will state that Mr. Morrell came to Philadelphia when but twelve j ears of age and has ever since been a citizen of Pennsylvania—that through honesty, probity and untiring in dustry, he has risen in j>osition to the head of the largest iron establishment in the United States, in the management of which he has secured the good will and esteem of ninety-nine out of every hund red persons in his employment, and that even those who have differed from him through strikes or other combinations, have never assailed his motives or integ rity. In proof also that what we have said is neither flattery nor adulation, we may here state what we have often heard, that his regard for the welfare of workingmen has shown itself in acts which reflect the highest credit upon his kindness and be nevolence. Among these is the fact that he advanced means to many of the em ployees of the Cambria Iron Works to erect dwellings upon vacant lots they had bought, and that he only required a pay ment of ten dollars a mouth upon sums so advanced, charging no interest what ever —thus enabling all industrious men to secure homes of their own by paying a monthly rent for a few years. In bringing these matters to public view, we feel assured we are doing what Mr. Morrell would decidedly object to; but as political wireworkers who oppose him would and will assail any man, how ever worthy, who may be placed in their road, we meet assaults in advance, and challenge contradiction from any authen tic source. The Pittsburgh Commercial, in noti cing the result of the conferee meeting, says: A Good Xominafioii. —The nomination of Daniel J. Morrell, Esq., in the Seven teenth Congressional District, is eminent ly one tit to lie made. Mr. Morrell is one of the most extensive manufacturers in our country, and understands thoroughly' the interests of Labor and Capital :is al fected by legislation. On the tariff ques tion there are few more earnest or able advocates for protection for American In dustry. His personal qualities and his many undoubted qualifications will com mand for him an extensive influence, and open a field of usefulness in the body to which, although the district is a close one, we do not question he will he chosen. The Lock Haven Democrat announces the following programme for the fall elec tions : "In those districts where the strength of the administration is sufficient to de mand it, undoubtedly Johnson candidates for Congress and the State Legislature may he run, who will receive the support of democrats. In other districts where the Republican majority can be overcome by the adhesion of Johnson men to the democratic candidates, the friends of the administration have no other course open to them than either to support the nomi nees of the party with whom they sub stantially agree in principle, or by the in-* traduction of third candidates into the field to divert from the Republican force what strength they can, and lay the found ation for future operations." This is precisely what has been going on in this district; and to show how little regard is paid to common honesty, truth, and self-respect, we state the fact that sundry Johnsonites who are now election eering for an independent candidate for the legislature, attended the republican delegate election, and in answer to the question whether they would support the nominees said they would, on which their votes were taken ! When such unblush ing and barefaced depravity is exhibited, what confidence can any democrat or copperhead place in them, or what securi- ty will they have that they will not also j be cheated in the end ? The following is an official copy of the dispatch suppressed by the administration j relative to the New Orleans riots: [Copy.] OFFICE U. S. MIL'Y TELEGRAPH, HEADQUARTERS WAR DEP'T. [Cipher.] The following telegram received 6 p. M., ; August 2, LS6f>, from New Orleans, La., ! August 2, 1806 : 1 f'. S. Grout, General, Washington, D. C.: j The more information I obtain'of the: affair of the 30th, in this city, the more j revolting it becomes. It was not riot: it j was an absolute massacre by the police, i which was not excelled in murderous cruelty by that of Fort Pillow. It was a murder which the Mayor and police of j the city perpetrated without the shadow of a necessity. Furthermore, I believe it : was premeditated, and every indication ! points to this. I recommend the remov- j ing of this bad man. I believe it would I be hailed with the sincerest gratification j by two-thirds of the population of the city. There has been a feeling of iusecu- j rity on the part of the people here, on ac count of this man, which is now so much i increased, that the safety of life and prop- j erty does not rest with the civil authori- j ties, but with the military.

Thus far it has been cut through to a depth of nearly forty feet, indicating a nest, hut must con tain an immense body of ore. The Watt son bank, which has been worked at dif ferent times arid relinquished on account of wafer, is again yielding a large quan tity of ore under the management of Alexander Berlew. An important discovery of a species of darkly variegated MAKBLK has been made on the lands of Jacob Yeager, of Derry township, which, if properly worked, will yield a large return. The specimen we saw was of a brown color, mingled with green; and we learn that large blocks, of a rich mahogany color, and suscepti ble of the finest polish, can lie obtained from the quarry. There is a fine field for enterprise in this business, and if, as is said, it exists in large quantities, such a quarry would be worth more than an oil well.

THE NEW PARTY MEETING.— There is no longer any democratic party in Mif flin county, the wireworkers having so managed it that they no longer call meet ings under its old name, and are thus gradually merging the democracy into Johnsonism, just as the old whig party lost itself in Know-Nothingism. Well, good-by old fellows —we are sorry for you; but cannot help saying you have sold yourselves dog cheap, as one or two may get a bone to pick or a shank to gnaw, but all offices worth having are to go into the hands of those convenient gentlemen who can cry "amen" to anything the "tinderman" at Washington may say or do. The honest portion will of course cut loose from such unblushing political pros titution. and finding a party that stood by the country through good and evil re port in the late trying times, with a platform just to all sections, will vote with that party. We shall welcome them to it; though they may find Union Re publicans have hangers-on, camp-follow ers, office-hunters, &<•., like the democra cy that was, yet the mass are honest, true and patriotic, just as was the mass of de mocracy until false leaders and ambitious men misled them. The last shameless move in attempting to sell them to John sonism will we hope remove the scales, and enable them to see that their leaders are carrying them forward to another Southern rebellion, just as they did under Buchanan. This new party held a meeting in the Town Hall on Monday evening, and af ter a vast amount of drumming, button holing, soft-soap and palaver, organized by appointing Samuel Aurand President, James Burns, Judge Coplin and other fledgelings Vice Presidents, Ac. Joseph Alexander, Esq., was called upon to ex plain the object of the meeting, but in the midst of it had to give way to E. D. Par ker, Esq., of Mifflintown, who with a slight change of names delivered nearly the same cockalorum speech he made in the diamond in 1864, when he said two millions of men would not submit to the re-election of Abraham Lincoln. Now, as then, he apologized for traitors and treason; now, as then, he advocated southern rights; now, as then, he de nounced the men and measures which put down the rebellion ; now, as then, he inculcated the idea that the North was wrong and the South right; now, as then, talked of blood and carnage in the future as glibly as did the canaille of St. An toine in Paris in 1792; now, as then, f miliarized his hearers to the destruction ot' law and order, as though our govern ment could withstand the teachings of history ami not fall PIO anarchy and con fusion if those elements are once let loose. Against Gen. Geary he had wisely noth ing to say, probably feeling that to laud a Vallandigliam copperhead like Clymer and disparage a noble soldier, might car ry his assaults too far. The best thing he did was to rea 1 the Constitutional Amend ments, and though lie desired to make it appear that southern traitors would lie craven to submit to them, lie fade ! to sat isfy a single sensible man thai lliey were not right. just to all white men, and len ient ami magnanimous to those guilty of the high crime of treason. He was fol lowed by Messrs. Dotv and I'ttley in some small potato remarks, when the meeting adjourned about as wise as when they went there. From the Secretary of Trerimiry, Washington , D.
