LET EVERY DEMOCRAT REMEMBER TirAM AMU IMPRESS THE TROTH OF iT UPON THE MINDS OF HIS NEIGHBORS: • ; !•.!J: • Oureandldates. The Democracy of 'Pennsylvania can point with just pride to thenOininatio4 made by their 'State Convention: The nomination ,of General William Mc- Candless for Auditor-General will com mand the respect of every Intelligent voter in the State, and there are thottal, sands of honest and conscientious, 110=, Publicans who will give hitn their suf frage In preference to Dr. ,Shin Who . thn , has been set up as the tool of the cot rapt " Treasury Ring." As a soldier General McCandless bass record as bright as that of anyman who went forth in the volunteer armies of Pennsylvania. He abandoned a tine' legal practice and entered the service of the United States on the 27th of May, 1861, as Major of the Second Regiment of Pennsylvania Reserves. Wm. B. Mann, of Philadelphia, was commis sioned Colonel of this regiment, but finding a safer and more congenial em ployment In denouncing Dembcrats as disloyal, he soon resigned and returned.' to Philadelphia, where he at once en gaged in the manipulation of elections for his own personal advancement and pecuniary benefit. On the 22d day of October, 1801, an election was held for Lieutenant-Colonel of the regiment, which resulted in the unanimous choice of William McCandless, who served in that capacity until the lOth of July, 1862, when Gov. Curtin, in recognition of his ability and bravery, promoted him to the Colonelcy. From Dranesville until he was mustered out of the service with the remnant of the gallant 2d, through the most desperate battles of the war, General McCandless was always found in the very front of battle where danger was most imminent. During .a consid erable portion of that time he acted as Brigade and Division Commander, rendering Important services through his skill and coolness as a military lead or. He was twice severely wounded, first at the second battle of Bull Run, while gallantly leading his regiment in that hard-fought but disastrous field, and subsequently in the bloody battles of the Wilderness. General McCandless learned the trade of a machinist In his youth, and ap plied himself to that business with the same energy and conscientious ness which has distinguished him in all the relations of life. Finditighis health impaired to some extent he studied law, and when his regiment was mustered out of the army he returned to the suc cessful practice of the profession, which lie had abandoned when called to do battle for the preservation Of the Union. Soon after the close of the war he was elected from .a the State Senate froa dis trict that was then regarded as over whelmingly Republican. In the Legislature he made his mark as a man of decided ability and strict integrity. He retired from that posi tion with honor, after having won the esteem of the entire Democratic party of Pennsylvania, and the respect of his political opponents, In selecting General McCandless as their candidate for Auditdr-General, the Democracy have put the right' . mah In the Tight place. He has all the ability which is required to discharge the important duties of that position aright, and be is' too high-minded and independent tobe influenced by any improper motives to his official conduct. We ask the people of Pennsylvania to judge for themselves between 'General AVilliain McCandless and the creature of the corrupt Treapury Ring, who has been set up as the tool of Mackey, Quay and the other vile crea tures who live upon the spoils wi:dch are divided among. the political adher ents of Simon Cameron. Capt. James H. cooper, of Lawrened county, the Democratic nominee for Surveyor-General, is also a man whose name is perfectly familiar to the veter ans of the war. He is a native of Alle • gheny county, a self-made man, having lost both his parent's when 'Li boy.. L - the war of the rebelliod broke out he enlisted as it private in a com pany formed in his adopted county, of which he was chosen Orderly Sergeant. This comnany afterward became famous us Battery B. of the First - Artillery, Pennsylvania Reserve Corps, and wail familiarly., known and .1s spoken, of in history as "Cooper's Battery;" taking that , name from its gallant young commander. Captain Cooper participated In ,al),'-the engagements fought by the Army of ~the, Poto mac frorn'thii beklinning.of the war un til August, 186.1, wheit he returned home in impaired health, hlsierm of service baying eßplied. There is not ayeteran of the glorious Old'Pennsylvaiala Reserve Corps to 'whom Captain Cooper is ,not well and favorably known. Many is the time they have seen him take his Position in front when an advance was o.dered, serving his guns with that coolness and skill for which he was dis tinguished ; and well do the boys" re member the desperate charge they made when • led • by the Old Ninth to re capture Cooper's Battery from' the rebels at •the sanguinary battle of New Market Cross Roads. Captain Cooper's' old comrades all speak• of him as. the bravest of tho brave, and thi,Mificial re -r ports of the commanders‘ under whtim he served bear abniidiiiit testimony his gallantry and to the 'ollel'el4 of le , celebrated battery , which bore his name. When he was mustered ont;he was red 2 onimended by all the ,olileer:s of the other batteries of the regiment for tip Culonelcy, and • tlib'' recomi nentletion. was endorsed,,hY General Meade 'and o' her distinguished officers of high rank.

State Convention, tha Chtgrmen.of the respective County Ciartr mitteeh or the State have been. .constio tuted a General State Committee, which is to be called together at designated times and places. They will 136 'able' to report the condition of the party hien& of. the counties of the State, to make known the wants of the Democracy; and to suggest and advise In rClailon to' the canvass. A committee composed of one man from each county in the State, would be found too large to act as an Executive Committee, and, while there is safety In a multitude of Counsellori, what decis ions are to be rendered and•plans exe-. cuter', power, ought to be transferred to fewer hands. Being convinced of the propriety of such an arrangement the Convention gave to the Chairman of the State Central Committee and the two candidates the authority to se lect eight men from different parts of the State, who, in connection with the Chairman, should constitute a State Executive Committee. This Executive Committee of nine is to meet from time to time with the General Committee, composed of the Chairmen of the differ ent County Committees, and to be en trusted with the carrying out of the plans of the campaign. It seems to us that these two Committees ought to prove decidedly more efficient than the old Committee of one from each Sena torial District. Each county wilt be represented, and the Executive Com mittee, being reduced to smaller dimen sions, will be likely to act more ener getically and efficiently. In selecting Hon. William A. Wal lace to act as Chairman of the State Central Committee, the Convention chose a man who has exhibited great executive capacity informer campaigns. Other worthy gentlemen were named, but the delegates knew Mr. Wallace so well that they would not permit him to decline. When he rose in the Conven tion and declared that he was not a can didate, he only repeated what he had said to individual delegates who spoke to him on the subject. The representa tives of the Democracy believed that Mr. Wallace would not decline to serve them if called upon to do so, and his election by so large a majority was a compliment of which any man might well be proud. We believe the re-or ganization of the State Central :Com mittee will be productive of good result. Adjournment of the Legislature At noon on Saturday, the State Legis lature adjourned, and its deeds of good and evil are now matters of public rec ord. Months must elapse before ,the thick volume containing the multitud inous acts of Assembly can be issued from the laboring presses of the State printer.. On its thousands Of page&wlll be found a few general laws of 'iMPort once, some meritorious private enact m.ents, and a mass of crude legislation which never ought to have been pro jected or perfected. Year after year private legislation has been m'e'lees lug, and the salutary rules laid down by the Speaker of the Senate, at the beginning of the session, proved inade quate to restrain It within proper limit ts. A radical reform in our system of State' legislation is imperatively demanded, and it can only be secured thrbUgh the agency of a Convention called to revise the Constitution ef the State. Privatel legislation must be ,reatricted very narrow limits, and - the 'Constitu tional barriers setup against dt must ho raised so high and rimile se strong, that they can neither be scaled nor broken down. Year after year corrupt rings have been formed In our hegislature, and members of both political parties , haye themselvesbeen found ready to band themselves together for improper purposes. The people can prevent that by 'refusing to return any of the men who have made bad records, and by declining to vote ,for any but candidates of high charge- ter. The best men of both parties must attend the primary elections ? and every good citizen must reseletely reSolpi not to vote for any one unless ho islet above suspicion. We Advise the Democracy the different, districts to repudiate any candidate who may havemade a bad record, or who is not known to be thoreugialylonest. It would be Anfln , Rely better for the party to lack in representation rather than virtue. We can afford to repudiate every bad Mat who may force himself upon the ticket, but we can not afford to have members in both branches, of the Legislature ready to affiliate with the creatures, who make up the rings which are 'organized for the purpose of plunder. , ,This is a question on which the Democratic presh of the stuto must speak out freely and LILL" fearlessly.

By such means the minds of the people. wonld have been dtst,racted, and; their atten tion drawn away :from conaideratiOn of the many and grave causes of complaint against the recent condhct of the Re publican party. It might ,even have been made possible to-insure there-elec tion of Grant by a renewal of the old war-cries, if the Democracy had failed to put into plain words that readiness to obey the Constitution as it is, which they had already displayed in action. The Radicals in Congress are not con tent to abide by the Constitution even as they have made it. The very ablest statesmen Of that party have declared the recently enacted Ku-Klux bill to be violative of the Constitution, not only asst was, originally, but as it now is. This disposition to exceed the Constitu tional powers Of Congress has beou the fruitful source of those great evils In legislation, ,against which the Demo matte party has so often and so earnest , , ly protested. And, now, from men of all parties, and from all sections of the country, there comes up an earn est demand for the preservation of the Constitution, not only of the amendments, but of the great .ody of that instrument as it existed before the amendments were made. Upon that broad platform the wise and moderate men of both political parties, in all sections.of the country, are preparing to unite. They feel that the re-election of Grant and the continu ance in powerof the reckless men, upon whom he relies and by whom he is sur rounded, might endanger the very form of our free government. Thousands of moderate Republicans are tined of being led to extremes by political managers, in whose judgment and integrity they have lost all confide pee. When, there fore, the . Democratic party solemnly 'avows Its intention / to yield a ready obe diepee to the Constitution in all its re quiremenk its deetaratron: will be be lieved, and all cause of distrust will be removed from the minds of many who are anxious to act with it in future. The Infamous Registry Law We publish elsewhere an address sent out by the Democratic members of the Legislature, in which the infamies of the Registry Law, so far as it relates to the City of Philadelphia, are fully ex posed. We need not do more than call attention- to the 'facts set forth in this address to insure for it a careful perusal. It exposes the outrageous character of the eriactments, ina rnannerwhich net fail to carry,' conviction to the mind of everyone who examines the state• ments 'which are authoritatively made. No stronger eNeniplication of the fact, that the Republican leaders believe their party to be sick unto death,-could be afforded, than is furnished by their action'in reference to this. Philadelphia Registry Rill, Bylt, they have virtually procluiruell that We Republican. 'Party la Pennsylvania is desperately diseased, and.that Its life can only be prolonged by theuse of the most desperate' reme dies. The fact is so patent that the Registry Law wag especially devised to enable .the' creatures of the Radical -Board of Aldermen, of Philadelphia, to count in the 'RepUblican candidates for 'office, whether they were elected or not, that its authors scarcely care to. deny that such Was their object. the plan adopted for disfranchising the Philadel phia Detnocracy is as simple as it has heretofore been effective. ,Theßepubli cats' majority of the Board of Aldermen appoint Republican canvassers to m ake a 'registry of the voters of, the districts, hid these &invassers are invosted'with power to Put Mi,Orstrike offn Ames from their lists at their discretion.

The Evening Tele graph gives a full account of the case and of the Influences which 'actuated the Governor. It says` The evidence against Brill was clear and emphatic, and as his offense was a partic ularly outrageous one, as it. was a blow at the very foundation of Booted order.and re pub.ican government, the interference of Governor Geary, at the dictation:of a gang of trading politicians, makes him a partici pant in the crime, and demonstrates his utter worthlessness as an administrator of Justice. There are certain men in this com munity who look upon such a crime as that of Brill's as a meritorious and not a criminal performance; and such as these, whether they call themselves Republicans or Democrats, can be consider ed es nothing else than enemies of society, who deserve to be jealously watched, and whoshould meet with the opposition of all right-mind ed citizens whenever they attempt to push themselves and their partisans into the management of public affairs. A. party of these professional politicians went to Har risburg ostensibly to oversee the conven tion for the nomination of Auditor-General and Surveyor-General. They called them selves the Unconditional Republican Club, but this name, like the pretended object of their visit to Harrisburg, was a mere blind, and the single end and aim they had in view was the unconditional pardon of Brill. Under these circumstances the Un conditional Pardon Club, would have been a more appropriate name for the party, .rominent in which were individuals who ave figured prominently in the Fleken pardon-case and other equally discredita ble circumstances.. Brill had secved these men, and they .wore determined that he should not, suffer fur his fidelity to the only principles of political. or moral action they subscribe to, which are, to get ; offine by any possible means; to make as Much 'as possible out of the public by_any possible means; and to remain in office es long as possible by any possible memis. Roneaty is a word such schemers as these have long since ceased to believe iu, and the public offices they consider as but their lawful prey, and the manipulation of election 're turns as the best and safest method of ob mining office. Brill was,one orate inatru manta used to accomplish their purposes, and as he had been useful In the past so he ; Might be.in the future; at any rate, the "Unconditionals" considered it incumbent on them to, take care of their friends, and the prompt surrender of Geary proves that he has a greater ambition to be in the good graces of the friends of Brill than to retain a spotless reputation as a man and as the Governor of a great Commonwealth. We understand a regular bargain was made between Geary and the "Uncondi tionals" foryhe pardon' of Brill, and the par don was granted not because any good and sufficient reasons could be assigned for-the release ,o f the criminal, but because die Un conditional Pardon Club guaranteed to en dorse Geary and to procure a favorable mention of him in the resolutions to be passed by the Convention. The following, which appears among the resolutions, rep resents a part of the , priqe paid for the lib eration of Brill from durance vile: '1 That our confidence in the firmness, wisdom, and integrity of our present wor thy Governor, Juhn W. Geary remains unshaken, and that we believe his qualifi cations for the office he now holds are un questionable, as is clearly proven by the manner in which he has brought the State safely through every storm." As there was not a Xl4lll in the Conven tion who had the slightest confidence in either the firmness, the wisdom, or integ rity of John W. Geary, it is difficult to find a polite word to characterize this resolu tion. The story told by the Telegraph will bp read with shame and humiliation by every good citizen of . PenneylVonia. By his action the Governor of the State gives encouragement to the gang of des perate scoundrels who live by ifiifflng ballot-boxes and committing all man ner of frauds at elections. His pardon of Brill will tie very properly construed into a license for all manner of political rascality. The rounders and repeaters of Philadelphia will feel assured that they can commit the greatest crimes with perfect impunity. If convicted they will look to Governor Geary for an unconditional pardon, and he can not consistently refuse to free every villain who may be sentenced by the courts, after having pardoned John H. Brill.— I - s'eVer in the history of this or any other country was there an instance of such a gross and outrageous abuse of the pardoning power. John W Geary might have set free all the murderers and thieves in our penitentiaries with out Inflicting upon society one-half the injury which will be caused by the lib eration of Brill. His pardon must ne cessarily encourage the grossest election frauds by teaching those who practice them lb the interests of the Republican party, that they have nothing to Mar from courts of justice or the law of the laud: Revision of the . . State Constitution The Democratic proposition referring the question of a revision of the con stitution of the State to ,the,peoPie the October election, received the sanc tiOn of the'Republican Majority of the lower House of the. Legislature, Miring the last hours of- the session. That is .the regular _and proper course of pro cedure, :the plan which has heretofore been adopted In.-our State, whlnh .has the et:Meilen of prebedent, and Which will commend itself to the good.fiense of the people of Pennsylvania. . We, have uo doubt that there will be au overwhelming majority in Savor of a, Convention; but it would have been-an tricOOgrueus prbeeedflig tb ask the peo ple to decide whether 'a Convention should bo called and to require them to vote for delegates at the Same time. The Dem'ocrlits of the Senate took the right view 'of- the matter, and the Republi cans of the House showed good judg ment in finally adopting the plan sug gested.

The Denio cracy resisted the innovation with all their might. They did so r not on ac count of any mere prejudice of race, but because they believed that great evils would. ensue from the incorpora tion of so large a body of ignorant yo• ters into the body politics. They have not changed their views on the proprie ty of adopting the Fifteenth Amend ment, or abated one jot or tittle of their detestation of the fraudulent means by which its ratification was secured. But, when it had received a formal sanction and been declared to be a part of the fundamental law of the land, they of fered no opposition to the negro voters who came to the polls with the ballots in their hands. In so acting the De mocracy gave assurance to all men that they are what they have always claim ed to be, a party of law and order, and worthy of being ertirusted,evep. with the execution of obnoxious statutes. • Aatlf!eation or the Treaty , .

We are glad to record the fact that this treaty has been ratified by the United States Senate, and hope that the speedy acceptance of the terms by the English Government may adjust every differ ence between the two countries. Quay's Men The Harrisburg Patriot understands the situation, perfectly, and describes it exactly futile following paragrifph : Who nominated and elected the present State Treasurer? Iff. S. Quay, the agent of the Treasury Ring. Who nominated Dr. Stanton, of Beaver county, for Audi tor-General P M. S. Quay, of Beaver coun ty, through the aid of the Treasury Ring. With Quay's man 'in the Treasury and Quay's other man in the A uditor•General's office, Quay will settle with Quay the ac counts of the Treasury.

Editors ;—The State ticket,Made at Harrisburg, on the 24th inst., meets the. approbation of the Democrats in this:see tion of the State. The names of "Wean dless and Cooper, fell on the ears. of the Radicals of this County, like a clap of thun der from a chmir sky. There ere-many men in this county who formerly voted the Re publican ticket, that will at the neat elec tion poll the full- Democratic 'ticket—espe cially the working clais. They have been so badly misrepreSented by the Atiner,s' Journal, a paper in the interests of rpoiiop °lies and corporations, - and at the same time one of the most bigoted and ultra journals in the State. If a good ,county ticket is made in Schuylkill county 'this year, the October election will' show a larger majority than has been given for many years. In looking over the list of delegates to the Democratic Convention in Lancaster county, we saw Caernarvon township' was not represented in that body. We knoiv there are about one hundred and fifty as good Deirroerats In that district as are to be found anywhere In the State. Why had it no delegates in that Conyerition'i'' Czernars von must wake up! Some of the young men must take the advance. Messrs: Wil liam Witinan, Lot Rogers, Thomas Ed wards, and others, formerly took the lead In the printery meetings of that district; but they have grown grey in the service, and at their advaneed age, it does not at all times suit them to make a Journey. of twentyYniles.

It is thought that the deaths .Wnre nausea 'by ktiffocation; al though some assert that two or three of them were drowned. The men were found iu the extreme weltern portion of the mine as fin balk as they could' get. Their suffering must have been terrible. Mr. Wm. Abbott, one of the Pennsylva nia Coal Company's men, says that , when he went down in the mine this morning, he found that the water was but three or tour feet deep, but the air was so bad that it was only by the most strenuous exertionathat he was able to retain strength sufticientrto gettbemen out. lie , had two assistants, viho werealmost .unable to aid him in 'the least. ! • The people here, while sorrowing for the dead, cannot help giving vent to• feelings of thankfulness that so many. were saved. One of the men that has recovered since gives the following: We .discovered the mine to be on tire about 3:30, that is about half an hour. after the tire broke out. We immediately built a barricade, and got be hind It, when wemado a prayer and sung a hymn, and then. waited for our fate. can remember nothing that occurred after 6 o'clock. Out of those brought up alive two have died this evening. An inquest will tie held•to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. The funerals of the dead will take place on Monday and Tuesday.

At the churches and Sunday-sehoolsto 'day the attendance; was eo meagre that the .regular order of devo tional' exercises was not attempted. The feelings of the community can better be imagined than described, and now; that all anxiety for those in the mine is past, every one seems to be looking to the welfare of those living, yet so near death..

We havo abored during this entire session to bring about this touch needed reform, because we have felt that it wenn measurably re store the purity of the ballot-bug in hill adelphin, that it would -aid In preventing false persenations and frauds upon the Registry, that it would prevent the fraud ulent counting and false returns' of votes, and that the restraining power of a Judtzlial tribunal would prevent the recurrence of scones of riot, bloodshed and murder her'e tame occurring at the meeting of Board of Return Judges. We have failed In the attainment of these Just ends, and we now deliberately charge that the Republican organization in obedience ton party caucus, controlled by a ring of Philadelphia poli ticizing, has prevented these necessary re forms and thus aided in perpetuatingirand, false counting, forgery of election returns and riot, blood Shed and murder.
