chosen. On taking ths chair, Mr. Humphrey
mud:
Gentlemen of the Convention: For the tuiso
licited and unexpected humor of being called to
preside. Oyer your deliberations, please accept
my tinter° thanks. When I glanced over the
list of delegates to the Convention and saw
the name of Horatio Seymour, who has been
our standard bearer and our champion In mag
i= a well fought battle for conslitntional liberty
and individual rights, I had supposed that
he. above all others, work be called to the
chair. In his absence I shall do the
beet of' my ability Its discharging
the duties this position Imposes. We are assem
bled under the call of a thnehonored political
organization, bat not as partizans. We are
here as representatives of that large class of our
citizens, who are, and always have been obedi
ent to the Constitution and the laws, and deter
mined that there slut] be respect by the people
and rulers alike. The war for national integri
ty, having been brought to a successful issue, It
is our duty es American citizens, to address our
selves to th e tack of restoring after the waste of
a terrible conflict, the blessing of civil govern
ment to the people in all sections of our com
mon country. To this end, It is of vital Impor
tance to the Empire State, which has furnished
more men and money for the supervision of the
rebellion, and the restoration of peace and

Into harmony with one Democratic system. The
efforts of the Preableat in this regard are delib
erately and maliciously approved - by a faction
whiehasserts that the - Southern States are mere
territorial dependencies, thus not only declaring
that secession Is an accompdfited fact, but pre
paring an amendment of the Constitution to re
cord the falsehood In an original law. So fares the
pollefot President Johnson towards the people
of theliouth has been developed, It Is in accord

with us that the Union has never been dissolved;
that the pretended acts of secession are null and

derogation of the constitutional right which they

the Government to the time. In these
positions, President Joatuson should be =hesi

Extensive Fire—The Ardesto Oil Worts
Totally Destroyed.
About eight o'clock Lasteveuing a fire broke
out in the works of the Ardesco OR Refining
Company, situated on 'Wood,' run, In McClure
township, resulting In the total distraction of
the refinery and the buildings belonging to the
works. The fire originated, es we learn, from
one of the employers carrying a lantern through
therefinery, which bad the effect of igniting the
games which had generated and accumulated
after the building bad been closed upon the sue
penelon of wore in the evening. Some twelve
hundred barrels of oil, crude and refined, In the
tanks were destroyed, and a large amount in
barrels,
The flames spread rapidly, and communica
ted to a tank of rowans, which made a terrible
eiplos.on, the contents flowing In a blaze of
flame down the run, and communicating with
the cooper shop, which was totally destroyed..
At twelve o'clock the fire had exhausted Itself,
leaving settling but • smoldering ruin.
The liana Steamer of Allegheny was the only
engine ° 2 the ground, and It performed invalua
ble service. Several brick dwellings in the vi
cinity of the lira were at one time in great danger,
and were somewhat scorched. They were only
saved from dastreetion by the presence and
noble drone of this steamer. The. Hope con
tinued on the ground this morning until
the fire had so far subsided as to occasion
no further damage, and played upon the flames
until a late hour.
This refinery was one of the largest In the
county. We were unable to ascertain the loss
'sustained or any further particulars owing to
the lateness of the hour, and the distance of the
ate-from the city.

The branch railroad from Blairsville, on the
Pennsylvania Railroad, to Freeport, on the Al
legheny river, Is now completed and ready for
use. At Freeport this line stigma that of the
Allegheny Valley Railroad, running thence to
Eltuctuslng, and Is now hiprogreas'of extension
beyond that point to the oil region. This branch
having been built by the Pennsylvania Rallrogil,
will be worked by that company as an avenue
for the coal, non and petroleum trade between
the Allegheny valley and Philadelphia. ,'This
branch will doubtless be worked es rush of a
through route between Pittelmrgh and Harris
burg via Freeport and Blairsville, Using the Al
legheny Railroad from Pittsburgh to Freeport,
The overcrowding of the main line Of the Penn
sylvania Railroad will bring this mach Into me.
The country between Freeport and Blairsville
will by this arrangement have direct access to
Pittsburgh, where their trade meetly centers,
while at the same time it will be 'open to the
market of the East. The Iron works of the Al
legheny valley are Immuring and Important, and
their trade will be an Item of prime importance
to the new connection. The coal. Interests of
the region are as yet undeveloped, but this road
will do meet to bring them into active opera

The Coming Elections.
An Important duty devolving upon ward,
township and county committees throughout
the city and State, is seeing that Soldiers who
were absent from home when the last assess
ment was made, are properly *eased now.
The absence of the soldier from his home, and
his required right in the meantime to vote
In the field, rendered it unnecessary to em
brace his name in the new assessments during
the war. In addition to this, many of the sol
diers have changed their residences, by which
reassessment becomes also necessary. The 80th
of September, ensuing, Is the limit of the time
appointed for these assessments, This is a very
short period Ps the performance of 'such an im
portant duty, and the committees itt the various
election districts should at ones collect a list of
all the onassossed soldiers as well as citizens,
and have their names placed on the proper du
plicates. Every returned soldier 'must be as
sent* or he will forfeit - his vote. '
