HAKKISBUBG, April 16, 1567. The " Republican State Convention" will meet at the" HerdicHouse," in Wil liamsport, on Wednesday, the "6th of June next, at 10 o'clock, A. M. , to nomi nate a candidate forjudge of the Supreme Court, and to initiate proper measures for the ensuing State canvass. As heretofore, the Convention will be composed of Rep resentatives aud Senatorial Delegates, chosen in the usual way, and equal in number to the whole of the Senators and Representatives in the General Assem bly. By order of (he State Central Commit tee. F. JORDAN, Chairman, GEO. W. HAM.EUS.LY, ) A. W. BENEDICT, -Secretaries. J. ROBLEY DUXGLISON j A Congressman on the Make. Daniel J. Morrell the individual who misrepresents this district in Congress by virtue of money lavishingly expended in colonizing and corrupting Voters, as well as sundry other Yankee tricks which we can and will at the proper time expose, cannot, it seems, rise above the propensi ty of his race, to turn an honest (?) pen ny, when the opportunity occurs. He having failed to secure the appointment of a Radical postmaster at Huntingdon, endeavored to sell his influence with the Radical Senate to the Democratic aspi rant willing to pay the highest price for that position, and on his return from Washington, last Thursday, left a letter for one of his friends in town, which read a 4 follows: Ox TP.AIX, April 21st, ISC7. Make the best arrangement von can with Miller. Wallace or Africa, any one you name will be con firm-i. DANIEL J. MORRELL. The aforesaid friend fixed the price of a confirmation at SSOO and set to work diligently to do his master's bidding and earn his reward, but the thing wouldn't work. Democrats didn't bite, and Con gressman Morrell's attempt at blackmail ing entirely failed. Our readers will begratified to learn that G. Ashman Miller, who flatly refused to come down with the coveted $-500 was confirmed as postmaster on the very day the above note was written, notwithstand ing his refusal to "give the corner of a three cent postage stamp" for the said Hon. D. J. M.'s influence. It is certainly very humiliating to be represented in Congress by a man who is always on the make; so much so, that a little post office cannot pass through his mill without paying toll. But when we inform our readers that the Hon. Daniel is held in leading strings by one Billy Shaw—who is well, if not favorably known in this county—his character wiil be at once understood and fully appreci ated. We copy the above tirade of copperhead malice and lying from the Huntingdon Monitor, a joint stock concern established during the war to decry the administra tion of Abraham Lincoln and so far as it dared uphold and justify the rebellion of Jef Davis and his cutthroat associates—a character it sustained throughout that terrible period of our history, us every Union soldier from this region well ! knows. The article bears unmistakcable evidence on its face that the note is a FORGERY, the probable production of a disappointed of- j fice-hunter who having found Mr. Mor- ! rell a stumbling block in his expectations | of political preferment, now vents his ! spleen against him by an impotent at- j tempt at defamation. In the iirst place I we have good reasons for knowing that at 1 the very time the Monitor alleges this note was written and left of!" at Hunting don, Mr. Morrell was oil his return home from Washington, previous to leaving which, lie had tacitly acquiesced in the confirmation of G. Ashman Miller as P. M. at Huntingdon, because Mr. Rose was at the same time confirmed as Collector of this congressional district. This fact is sufilcient to show he could have written 110 such note, and stamps the author of the above as an unblushiug falsifier of everything pertaining to truth. There is also another phase of this mat ter which is worthy of attention. Sup pose a note of this kind had been written by Mr. Morrell or any other person, addressed to a private individual, itmusteither have been STOI.EN or otherwise dishonestly or dishonorably obtained —for we think all will admit that no honest person would for a moment use or retain a private note, even if found, and pervert it to defama tion and scurrility. To talk of Mr. Morrell being in the leading strings of any person, may do among the admirers of the "stern states man" who is painting copperhead democ racy in Fortress Monroe, yet comes with a bad grace from those who endeavored to use Mr. Morrell and found him to be metal that could not be fashioned to suit the band of aspirants for Assessor and Collec tor in and about Huntingdon. 1 he truth is the only note Mr. Morrell wrote was si in ply stating the fact that Mr. Miller had been appointed, and if Mr. Cormnau will make the inquiry he will find tliis to have been the case, and also that he has been made the victim of a shameful forgery and published an un provoked assault on Mr. Morrell. fOgf The distribution of Gifts advertis ed in another column, for the benefit of the Soldiers' Home, is thus noticed in the Philadelphia Press. It is no swindle : A National Home for Invalid Soldo rs. —Measures are now in hand which are calculated, after the lapse of a few months, to establish, on a grand scale, the desider atum —a National Home for Invalid Sol diers. The design is an admirable one, and is as follows: It is well known that ail efforts to obtain voluntary subscrip tions sufficient to erect a Soldiers' Home have been without avail. In furtherance of the object, however, the Legislature of Pennsylvania have passed an act dated March 0, 18(57; creating a corporation of which Major General George G. Meade is president, and General Horatio G. Sickles is treasurer, with an efficient board of supervisors, who have the power to distribute to the holders of certificates a la ge number of immensely valuablegifts, consisting of diamonds, pearls, emeralds, rubies, &e., purchased from citizens of the Southern States during the rebellion, and which articles will soon be exhibited in t lis city. By this scheme it is confident ly anticipated a large fund will be created towards the erection of the Home. A great feature of the affair consists in the fact that every purchaser of the certificates becomes a contributor to this National Home fund, and at the same time has a direct interest in the distribution of the rare gems mentioned above. The details of the entire scheme will be conducted in a perfectly fair and honorable manner. The site "for the Home has already been purchased, and consists of thirty acres of 1 mil, used by General Meade during the b ittle of Gettysburg as liis headquarters. The plan has been approved by ex-Gov ernor Curtin, Major General Meade, Gov ernor Geary, and a large number of prom inent military iieroes. Clioice Extracts from Patent Democratic Papers. The barn-burner of the Shenandoah is now playing the role of Grand Sultan, at New Orleans. If A. Johnson had the pluck of a louse he would teach the up start a lesson in ethics as well as duty.— Lock Haven Democrat. Ain't the barn-burner a democrat? A short time since Gen. John Ross, a Democrat, and as pure and liigh-minded a man as lives, was nominated to the Sen ate aud rejected because (for there could _ be no other reason) he uas a Democrat.— Cambria Freeman. You tickle me, and I'll tickle you. The New York Conference, at their late session, adopted a resolution endorsing the Rump Congress and negro suffrage. * * * For a body of men styling them selves christians to endorse a set of men who have made a harem out of the de partments of the government, is rather a strong dose. More than five hundred concubines are kept and supported by the Rump and their adherents, and yet they are complimented by a Conference. The " whore of Babylon" is certainly losing ground.— Clearfield Itcjiublican. Not in Clearfield, we should judge. Prohibitory laws have been tried in va rious parts of the country and have not only invariably failed to'accomplish any good, but have done more to retard the progress of Temperance than all the ef forts of the liquor men together. The re action which follows an attempt to make men temperate by legislation is sure to result in a feeling of apathy on the part of the people in regard to the question, that is fatal to tiie cause.— lndiana Dem ocrat. You had better democratize the ten com mandments, as they arc throughout pro hibitory laws. B*%, There is every prospect of a terri ble Indian war in the west. tfSf The U. S. frigate Susquehanna has arrived at Fortress Monroe with the yel low fever on board. Kentucky, as faras heard from has returned three State Rights (alias rebel) democrats to Congress. The killing of wild ducks between the Ist April and Ist September, is pro hibited under a penalty of $5.00. BSGuThe York Democratic Press has been enlarged to an eight column paper, and presents quite a business aspect. tGF A pike weighing sixteen pounds was caught in the Couemaugh river, near Ulairsviile, a few days since. Cowan has got a paying appoint ment by the Secretary of the Treasury to assist the Solicitor in examining claims, &e., to go before the Court of Claims. BQLTWO men, Noah and Henry Arm strong, were killed by lightning in Fay ette cjunty, Pa., on Monday the 22d ult., while some miles apart. BBaltimore City last week elected Scott, the associate of Kane and others who tried to create a rebellion in Mary land, one of the city judges. Democracy is progressing. ftajfThe copperheads are crowing at what they call an increased majority in Lancaster city, where they always suc ceed. They did not increase their vote, which simply shows that the republicans staid at home. General Diaz's official report of the capture ot Puebla confesses that he put to death twenty-four Imperial Generals and officers. He adds that it was done con formally to law. According to a letter from Louis bchade counsel for Wirz, which is now going the rounds of the copperhead press the keeper of the Georgia rebel prison pen was one of the most innocent men ever hung. Circus clowns have a fashion of oc casionally introducing individuals bv name among the stale jokes in the ring because some editor happens not to ap prove of their exhibitions. This appears to have been thecaseat Hollidaysburg,where the editor of the Whig was lately scored by Dan Rice. A few fools may laugh at such Rings, hut as ageneral thing nothing is made by them in any community. The newspaper is the proper place for discus sions of this kind, and for our part we are always williug to give proper space for refuting what we allege. Philadelphia Express train east ran into a landslide on Tuesday of last week, near Wilmore station, Cam bria county, throwing one engine into the Conemaugh and the other into a ditch. Sam'l. McNaught and Thomas O'Rourke, engineers, escaped without much injury, but Mr. Oilman, express messenger, sus tained a fracture of the left leg, and Thos. McGregor of Philadelphia, was badly bruised. The passengers escaped without any injury of note. BSBuThe newspapers south, which for merly hardly noticed a republican speech except to misrepresent it, have latterly been compelled to adopt the northern style and report whatever is transpiring. The consequence is that Wilson, Gibbons, and others who are now addressing vast audiences where republican speeches were never heard before, are reported in all the Richmond papers, and Southern men thus see and read what is said for as well as against Congress and its measures. This course must be galling to the rebel editors, but as they would soon have been thrown into obscurity by more enterpris ing publishers, self-interest it seems can influence the "chivalry" as well as the small-listed farmers and greasy mechanics of the North, as a South Carolina demo cratic negro breeder used to call them. For the Gazette. MANHATTAN, April 29th, 18<>7. No doubt many of the "oldest inhabi tants" of Mifflin county are quite familiar with the "shakes" arising from ague, but as few or none of them have felt those produced by an earthquake, which neither quinine norcoiogogue will prevent, a brief description of our experience throughout Kansas might not prove uninteresting to our friends who read the Gazette. Wednesday, April 24th, being a beauti ful day, our town was thronged by people from the county and emigrants on their way to the far west. Business was very lively and all seemed engaged either in buying or selling. But this"bustling ac tivity was brought abruptly to a halt, about three o'clock, by a low rumbling noise. Soon the buildings began to rock and the terrified inhabitants rushed into the streets. The waters of Big Blue and Kansas rivers, which unite at this place, tossed from one side of their channels to the other, while old Mother Earth groaned and shook beneath. A scene of confu sion and amazement was now observed in the streets among the people who had gathered there. Men without hats or coats and ladies without the usual display of elegance of dress could be seen —some running they knew not where, while others stood in breathless silence, many in all probability thinking that the "last days" of the prophetic I)r. Cmnraing was upon us, and many, we have reason to believe, while the God of Nature thus displayed to a limited extent his mighty power, made vows to live more uprightly, only to be broken when apparent danger was past. The duration of the occurrence lias been variously estimated—each indi vidual probably calculating the time in proportion to the amount of nervous ex citement experienced—hut we think by a fair estimate it did not much exceed half a minute. It caused no material damage beyond the scare which it produced. A few chimneys and stone buildings and walls ii is said were somewhat injured. The Agricultural College, a stone build ing, was rather severely tried, and it is thought would not have stood much more. Clocks were stopped, some thrown from the shelves, glass and crockery ware broken, plastering knocked from ceilings, &c., &e. The editor of the Manhattan Independent tells us that he was just racking his brain for a local, and when the earthquake came thundering by, was successful to a degree which he did not desire to see repeated, and we presume this is the sentiment of all. To the ad mirers of nature there is music in ripple of the rill and the foaming of the cataract, pleasant voices in the gentle breezes and something pleasing in all the ordinary operations of nature, but in this peculiar phenomenon there is a voice by no means musical and an exhibition of dormant physical forces more pleasing when past than present. j. w. \v.
