The BepablicAe State Convention and (he
Candidates Nominated.
Ibe Republican State Convention to
nominate an Auditor General aud Sur
veyor Genera!, assembled in the House of
Rrpreneiitative. at llarrifburg, at noon,
on VVedmajdar, the 17th iuet. The Cou
vrnina was fall, every district Leiug
nfiwwentod. The unpleasant sight of
-'atrtiii de!fali , was not witnessed,
s is tjo Vq the care at conventions.
llaiBinoy aud good feeling irevailed
throughout the entire proceedings, aud,
as a natural consequence attending all
harmonious met-tings and couventioo of
whatever kiud. The business matters
were soon attended to and the notuina
tiuns completed.
Three gentlemen were voted for the j
ffice of Auditor General, namely Dr. j
David Stanton, Senator Allen, aud F, C.
lloolon, witli the following result :
Mantoii, 9." votes ; Allen, 22 votes ;
1 1 not on, 15 rotes. Or. Stanton's nom
ination was made unanimous amid great

Mr. Beath ia at present engaged as
book keeper in one of the largest coal
collieries in Schuylkill county, and is
especially fitted for the important post of
Surveyor Geueral, to which bis Republi
can friends will elevte him on the second
Tuesday of October next.
Ueaeral Harrison Allen.
Among the able, geuial, and courteous,
Republican Slate Senator's stands Gen
eral Allen, of Warren county. His fine
qualities and noble military record en -J
d eared him to the people among whom
he lives, and on two occasions they teutt
fled their appreciation of him by sending
him, first to the Lower Hou-e of the Leg
.stature, and second, to the Senate, where
he now is discharging the duties of that
position. He baa another year to serve.
General Allen waa largely voted for iu
the Republican State Convention, at Har-
riaburg, on the 17th. He fills his place
ao well in the Senate that it almost
seems like doing a wrong to the party to
propose to take bim from the houorable
post that be now occupiea. Rotation in
office is tight when tbe incumbent is in
competent to discharge the duties of his
place, or is an unfaithful or bad servant
of the people. Rotation is not right and
proper for a party if tbe incumbent is
competent to discbarge the duties of his
place, or is a faithful and honest servant
of the people, The people of General
Allen's district doubtless will return bim
to the Senate, at the next election.
The press predicts higher honors for him.

Generals Heiuteelman and Hooker. Ia

And in 1865 be was breveted colonel."
Two gentlemen were voted for the
See of Surveyor General, namely, Col.
Robert B. Beath and Samnel L. Smedley,
with the following result : Beath, 87
votes ; Smedley, 40. A cotemporary
writes of him as follows :
C"l. Robert B. Beath, who waa nomi
nated as the Republican candidate for
advancing the interests of Philadelphia
as a commercial ceutre. Heretofore Phil
adelphia merchants have mostly been
receiving their foreign goods through the
New York Custom House. It was no
uncommon thing for goods to lie in New
York five days before being forwarded to
Philadelphia. The effect of this delay
opon tbe trade of Peunsylvania'a chief
city is easily seen. New York could
supply tbe market before onr merchants
were ready to sell. Col. Forney, aided
by the merchants of Philadelphia, pro
pose to change this system. It is pro
posed to have the foreign goods shipped
without delay to Philadelphia, thereby
giving oar merchants the same chance in
the market that the New Yorkers have.
Colonel Forney deserves all praise for so
soon moving in the matter.
The editor of the Harrisburg Ttlrgraph
is of the opiuion that his editorial brother
of the Patriot is following Prof. Agar-
tis's hint in living on fish diet to increase
his braiu power heuce tbe wondrous
government-destroying articles of the
Patriot The Telegraph further thinks
that when the time again comes for a re
turn to beef steaks and mutton chops,
that then tbe Patriot will again reinstate
the republic.

The CstU TiiaWm
Daring the put week serioaa troubles
existed in the Scraoton coal regwn. A
correspondent ot the PbuadelpbU jui
rtr writes of the trouble in this way :
BciaKlW, May 17. Tbe wildcat ex
citement exiats in Hyde Park to-night.
Two Welshmen were shot dead between
five and six o'clock this evening. Tbe
black legs, as tbe W. K. A. term them,
were marching home at that hour from
Brigga' shaft to Bellevue. Ia the line
were thirty blacklegs, tea of whom were
armed with Remington tinea ; immediate
ly behind on the march were aix soldiers.
armed with smooth-bore Springfield mus
kets. Wben they reached Fellow' Cor
ner in Hyde Park, they were compelled
to pass a large crowd of Welshmen be
longing to the W B. A., who were stand
ing there conversing with each other.
No sooner than had they passed a stone
waa throwu by one of the Welshmen,
which bit John Cornelius, ("blackleg")
on tbe shoulder. Another atone then fol
lowed hitting Michael Kurnson the leg,
and atill another stone was thrown, but
missed its mark. . Before the third stone
fell on the ground, one of tbe guns waa
leveled at a Welshman and fired, instantly
killing Benjamiu Davis, Patagonia, and
David Jones, of Hyde Park. The one
shot riddled both men. Were it not for
the coolness of the soldiers more would
have been killed.
The laborers and soldiers went on to
Bellevue, and the Welsh carried the life
less hodics of their comrads to Co opera
tive Hall, where an inquest will be held.
By this time the excitement was intense
beyond description. Men, woman and
children running to and fro on Maiu
street, ready for any retaliation A war
rant was issued by Alderman Jones for
the arrest of Thomas Gerrty, the man
who is president of the laborers' movement.
and who waa one of tbe party working at
Brigga' Shaft. Constable Tompkins ar
reted him, and while the man was on bis
way to the alderman's office thousands
surrounded him, crying ''Hang him,"
"Lynch him."
It is a wonder that Gerrty was not
torn to pieces, but he was finally locked
np in the alderman's office. Mayor
Monies went to Hyde Park and advised
the crowd to be quiet. Tbey answered
that Gerrty mutt be sent to Wilkes barre
jail. Soldiers were sent after him and
he was taken to the depot en route for
jail. John Cornelius was quietly arrested
by the police of this city and is out of
barm way.
A cannon is now stationed on Main
street to prevent an outbreak. The
Weleh are swearing retribution. Davis
had a wife and four children. Joues had
a wife and no children.
Sceamton, May 18. This has been
another day of intense excitement. A
warrant was issued for the arrest of W
W. Scranton, who waa at work superin
tending Briggs' shaft. He is charged
with beiug accessory to the murder of
the miners who were killed yesterday.
Constable Tompkins took the warrant to
the shaft to serve but Lieutenant Seely
refused to allow him to take Mr. Scran
ton to Hyde Park, for had be done so
the infuriated crowd would have torn bim
to pieces.
Tompkin waa kept in custody, aud
the soldiers took both to Scrauton. Mr.
Scrantou was escorted to Hyde Park by
two companies of soldiers and a multi
tude of ciiiseus armed, tbe baud playing
"Hail to the Chief ' He was tried aud
seut to jail.' He will be home to-night
on a writ of habeas corpus.

Scranton, May 16 The excitement
of the past few days has subsided. The
first inquiry made by most people this
morning was : "Did Mr. W. W. Scran
ton, who was arrested aud released yes
terday, accompany tbe men to work this
morning " This waa soon answered in
the affimative ; in iact. it could not well
be otherwise, as the Lackawanna Coal
Company bad pledged itself in the most
positive manner that the men who had
taken anch a decided stand, and had en
dured snch an amount of abuse and per
secution, should be protected. Through
tbe presence of Mr. Scranton they had
come to regard the promise as a real
guarantee to protection.
Accordingly, when the time came for
work Mr. Scranton waa oa band and ac
companied them to tbe scene of opera
tions, notwithstanding the load and vio
lent threatenings indulged in by the mi
ners of Hyde Park. The number of the
working laborers continue daily to in

seventy men entered the mine.

On the topic of discussion H Duty of
Superintendents and of Teachers" Rev.
D. M. Blackwelder said That the duty
of the Superintendent necessarily in
volved a consideration of the qualifica
tions demanded to perform those duties.
The first requisite was Piety The Su
perintendent should be a xonverted man
One who had an experimental knowl
edge of the power of God's grace on his
own heart. And he should be possessed
of intelligence general intelligence, but
especially scriptural intelligence. He
should be well grounded in tbe great
troths of God's Word. 2o4. Enerrw.
He should not be afraid to fan hold, and
when he has taken hold, to hold on. r
Piety is valuable, intelligence ia impor
tant, yet if energy is wanting, the school
will be a failure. We believe that intel
ligent energy has as mach to do with
success as any other characteristic. 3rd,
Discretion or prmdrnee. The Superin
tendent onght to know when, where and
how to take hold, and wbec to let go.
In other words he should possess Uet
and executive ability.
Rev. H. C. Shindel said There is one
defect more prevalent among Superin
tendents, so far as my observation ex
tends, than any other, and that is leant of
backbone. M-rt backbone is their great
need. It requires courage true courage
to face the difficulties and reform tbe
evils to be met with in many of onr Sab
bath Schools. Courage, too, not for a
single Sabbath, nor for a brief spasmodic
effort, bat continuous, unflinching, abiding
to the end. Superintendents generally
are too much afraid of giving offence
of being misunderstood if they deviate
from the beaten track, and, hence, for
fear, will not tonch what they know
would be for the interest of their schools.
Though diiereet, intelligent and pious, if
lacking backbone, tbey will be at best
abortions. I think it ia a mistake to make
the pastor superintendent. I cannot con
ceive that under any circumstances the
pastor should be superintendent.
The President urged all to speak, and
give their views on this important sub
ject.
John t . Allen thinks tbe subject is
exhausted
Col Thompson is of the opiuion thst
resolutions ought to be adopted, expres
sing the sentiments of the Association on
the duties of superintendents and teach
ers. Every delegate here has had ex
perience in tbe weak points. Superiu
lendents, with whom he has been brought
into contact, have told him so, and from
that he can infer what a superintendent
should be.
On motion the discussion was closed
for the present.
The following report on permanent
organization waa received aud adopted t
Tbe committee on permanent officers

President Rev. H. C. Pardoe.

The Association then sang
"All hail the power of Jesus' name."
Reports were read from a nnmber of
schools, when ou motion the further read
ing of reports was suspended aud the
discussion of " Duties of Teachers'' re
sumed.
Rev. Harvy Stewart said Every man
must be qualified before he can perform
any duty. Hence we will consider 1st,
Qualifications. 2nd, Duties of Teachers.
I. Qualifications. 1st, Vital piety.
A zeal that is unflagging love so strong
as to enable and compel tbem to do what
ever the cause calls them to do. One
third of tbe teachers never know what it
is to love the Lord Jesus Christ. Tbey
are the blind leading the blind. If a
man knows not the way to the imperial
city, bow can be direct others I 2nd. A
sufficient amount of natural g'Jtt and
education and common rente. To illus
trate A Sunday School teacher iu the
course of the lesson met with the word
"marvel," and asked his class what it
meant. Not receiving any response, he
explained that if your mother told you to
go for a bucket of water, and you were
slow in obeying, and she said " Marvel
off," that is what it meant. If such
ignorance is manifested in natural things,
how much greater must be tbe darkness
on spiritual things 3rd, Tact. One
shade of it is backbone, as referred to by
Bro. Sbindle, coupled with that other
quality, spoken of by Bro. Blackwelder,
of knowing 'when to take hold and when
to let go ' Illustration Wben I was
attending College at Cannonsburg I had
charge of a class in Suuday School.
They had not learned to read, so I con
cluded to give them a scripture narrative.
I told them the story of Jonah how he
disobeyed tbe Lord, embarked in a ship,
was overtaken in a storm, heaved over
board, swallowed by a whale, and so on,
While I was relating it I noticed a bright-
eyed little girl who listened very atten
tively, and wben I finished, appeared to
be anxious to speak. I gave her an op
portunity. She asked me, " Do you
know what the whale said to Jonah be
fore it swallowed him ?" "No ; what did
it say I" "Come in here, ont of the wet,
you rascal." Such incidents occur in the
experience of every Sunday School
teacher, and ir requires tact to turn them
to account and to draw spiritual lessons
therefrom
II. Duties op Teachers. 1st. Af
ter securing tbe class, understand wbat
kind of characters they have. Teachers
may understand the scriptures, yet, if
they do not understand the characters
under their care, they can accomplish
nothing. 2nd Study thoroughly their
lessou before coming into the Sabbath
School. 3rd Seek the blessing of God
upon their labors earnest preparation in
the closet before going into the Sabbath
School.
Rev. Mathew Allison. The great doty
of tbe teacher is to convey the truths of
religion to tbe ehild so that it may be
converted and led to Jesus. To accom
plish this, great speculative knowledge is
not necessary but practical, experimen
tal knowledge The teacher himself
most feel before he can make the child
feel. It should be his aim to fill the
mind of the child with divine truth, com-
mWMgated affectionately, ao as to bring
tha beast nnder its influence Careless.
half-hearted teaching does more injury to
the cause than none at all. Secondly.
Let the teachers preserve order ia the
class. Thirdly, Teachers, look well to
yourselves. Teachers that swear and
profane the Sabbath undo by their exam
ple what tht!y Inculcate by their instruc
tions. To give eftVct to his lesson, he
who teaches must practice wbat he
teaches. Fourthly, Prayer. Prayer be
fore going to teaeh and prayer after cora
ine awar. Chalmers said an hour's
prayer was the best preparation for th
pulpit. As an instance of the power of
fervent importunate prayer I remember
reading of E yormg female teacher who
not only prepared her lesson with care,
bat who also made it her business to
pray one hour each week for each schol
ar in her class. What was the result 1
At the end of a year every one of her
scholars were converted. She waa given
anew She punned the same course,
bearing thsm upon the arms of faith be
fore a throne of mercy, and was rejoiced
at the end of the second year to see them
all commencing the christian life. You
may rest assured that tbe Lord will not
bless our labors unless we ask for his
blessing, and with his favor invoked the
feeblest instruments will achieve greater
results than the most powerful. Not the
most learned, talented and eloquent min
isters are the most successful. "Not by
might, nor by power, bnt by my Spirit,
saith the Lord."
The Association sang
"A charge to keep I have."
O H. MeAlister mentioned as a very
important quality in the teacher -punctuality.
On motion the further discussion of the
Duties of Teachers was suspended, and
a question-drawer was opened. While
tbe questions' were being collected the
Association joined in singing
My days ar gliding swiftly by."
