The most vigilant care has been
-exercised everywhere that there was
any cause for suspicion. It is im
possible, however, with the sixty
years of Democratic training, which
has been given the politiciins of the
country, to prevent fraud altogether.
But we have reduced it to the mini

it.
The Inlelligeneer, published at
Danville, Montour county, P., by
Hon. Taos. CHAL-FANT, gives BUCKA•
LEW'S repeating system of voting, a
left-handed compliment in the follow
ing reference to the election ' in
Bloomsburg, Beciunw's own home:
About every year the public are re
galed with a history of the borough
election at Bloomsbnrgh, where the
system of cumulative voting hail been
introduced. Last year the Colum
bian felt d over the result, and in
two len gthyarticles lauded the sys
tem hig hly and avowed that all were
delighted and satisfied with its wor
kings. This year things don't
seem to have worked smoothly, nor
is the result viewed so satisfactorily.
The Columbian has changed its key;
writes lugubriously; talks of the elec
tion as being a " farce;" "syeaks of
"tricks" "games," "broken faith," &e.. 1
&c. Now we protest that this is an .
unkind cut at cumulative voting ;
that system. which was to be, the
panacea of all evils growing out of
elections—that was to purge the bal
lot—that was to improve on the work
of thefounders of our system of gov
ernment—that was to give the mi
nority its 'rights,. &c., &c. Hal it
thus failed in the house and handitof
its friends? Colt/170*ln so ,ad its

Ridicals carrying both the President
and, a large proportion of the Coun
cil, and worse, through the systeth of
legal "repeating," under the cumula
tive plan, elected a negro council
man, over a respectable Democrat.
Under the old' fashioned majOity
system of voting no 'such outrage•
could have been committed. Under
the new or cumulative plan, ;which
allows a clique or cabal of 'designing
men to each pile up sir votes on a
candidate, the meanest scallawag of
that clique can be elected. Lithe
case mentioned; the clique preferred
• au ignorant negro; and they elected
him as their most fitting representa
tive. An this case at least, cumula
tive Voting seems to have worked 'to
the confusion of its founders.

The delegate, began to drop in at Harrisburg
early on Monday, bat the larger delegations
did not arrive mita Tuesday afternoon. Those
from Philadelphia, Pittsburg, l and the North

were met at the depot and escorted to their

this city, among which, a noticeable' feature
was a Negro Band mxionipanitid by a literary
society designating themselves, pro paerit.
The manner in which these sable brothers
conducted themselves during ceremonies,
convinced. me that neither . 0s nor Miner

During Tuesday afternoon, flutters began to
assume a liminess shape. Cheaeral Hartranft
gave notice by placard, that he bad established
his headquarters at the Looldel Hotel, while
W. W. Ketcham.. in like manner, gave notice
that ho could be, found at the Jones Mime.

from the beginning, that Hartman was almost
the unanimous choice of the party for Govern

at 8-30, P.M., filled the pregraMme, which was
ratified by the Convention the next day.

has received just recognition Li the hands of

The nomination of Judge Mercer for the Su

time, is not merely a geographical concession,
however. Mr. Mercer's high standing as a law
yer and a jruist,his affability and Unsullied rep

eight years in Co Tress, insured his nomina
tion. The press throughout the State unite in
one common sentiment, "his name is • tower
of strength to the ticket."

spoken of and gives general satisfaction. • The

to receive almost universal commendation, is

For. Governor, General Jolla F. Ilartnuift, of
the adjoining county of Montgomery, was nom
inated on the first ballot by a vote of nearly
Iwo-thirds of the Convention—the delegates in
nearly ova) , instance having boon instructed.
This settles the fact that he is the choice of tho
great majority of the Ilepnbllean party, and as
well shows his continued poptiLvity with the
people—shows their couttdeuce in his honesty
and integrity, notwithstanding the attempts of
the Evans eatutpiraters to blacken his eharste»
ter. We reiterate a fact which is familliar to
thhaving any ccquaintanco with State affairs,
ata Hartranft was the fearless and con
scientious prosecutor on behalf
to
the 'State
whose financei ho was called to guard, of the
mon who now traduce him.
Ile is not an orator; and. yet we elsewhere
prodnoe "campaign speeches," made by him,
which told more largely on the fortunes of the
war,than any words which ever fell from the
lips of our„greatsst and best civilians. He is a
modest quiet Irian, but whoso accuses him of
want of thought, powor,of brain, of knowledge
in State-craft, of famil iari ty with pubLui inter
ests and wants, of executive ability, do not
know the man and pass x judgement too hasty
and superficial to call for serious criticism: -lie
'is straightforward, plain'and quiet, but withal
as keen as the keenest, and as st e ady and relia
ble as any public man in the State. Re is not
the creature of any faction—is himself stronger
than any faction—and unites with his record of
patriotiaM a tried and consistent support of
Repnblican measures And principles which
many public men, more noisy in their allegi
ance, might profitably imitate.
We support-him cheerfolly, and

Hove in his triumphant election. Re isiinch s

coals and give time and effort lathe struggle

holds the centre in this Presidential contest—
and that with aid like that given him before; in

able to hold It and to improve the-Victory when
