General Harry White who had been '
nominated by the State Convention for!
both Congressmen at large and delegate i
to the Constitutional Convention deem- j
ed it proper to decline the candidacy of
Congressmen at large. It fell to the
dntr of the committee to fill the vacancy,
and also to nomtnate a
tWrd man as a
candidate fur Congressman at large, for
by the latest t onnl of the population the
State is entitled to three additional mem
bers of CoDgresa The two new mm
placed in the field by the committee are
Gleuni V. SeoftelJ and General Charles
Albright.
W. D. Forten, of Philadelphia was
nominated as elector at large.
GISNEBAL CHARLrS ALBRIGHT.
Gen. Albright is a resident of Mauch
Chunk, Carbon county, and is not q-iit
fifty years of age. He was educated at
Pickinson College, and embraced the
profession of the law, in the active prac
tice of which he is still engaged. lie is
also actively interested in the banking
business, being president of the Second
National liank of Mauch Chunk.
In August, 1862. he was mustered in
to service as major of the 123 1 regiment
of Pennsylvania Volunteers, with which
he served until the regiment waa mus
tered out of service on May 24, 183:5.
He was promoted to be lieutenant colo
nel of the regiment on September 24,
1862, and to the colouelcy on January
24. 1863.
The regiment arrived on the field just
at the close of the battle of South Moun
tain, September 13, 1S62, but in time to
take an active and efficient part in the
pursuit of the enemy across Antietam
creek. During October, it took put in
reennnnfceanefs at Leesburgand Charles
town, West Virginia, and then joined in
the general movement of the army to
wards the Rappahannock and prepara
tions for the battle of Freder cksl urg.
The regiment was led in the charge ou j
Mayre's Heights, on the .afternoon of j
November 13, by Sieutenant Colonel
Albright, and although side by side with
veteran troops, it stood the brunt man
fully Sickness and casualties had re
duced the command from the full com
plement to 340 effective men, aud of
these 150 wetc lost iu this atault. The
regiment, subsequent to this engage
ment, performed only the ordinary
guard aud picket duty near the banks of
the Rappahannock, until the battle of
Chaucellorvilie in which it took part,
being subject to a severe lire on the
morning of the 3d of May, and losing 50
men. Its term of service having expired,
it returned home and was muttered out
of service.
Two thirds of the Regiment re-enlisted,
however, and Colonel Albright again
entered the field at the bead of the 20-'d
Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers
.
September 3, 1864, but Colonel Albright
was absent from his regular command
for some time, in command of the forces
employed to suppress the riotous distur
bances of the miners in Columbia county.
The 202 d was firt-t employed in keeping
open Sheridan's connections while oper
aling in the Shenandoah Valley, and
subsequently in guarding the Orange
and Alexandria railroad. During this
period they bad frequent ekirmishes with
the enemy, but took part in no pitched
battle. In May. 1835, the 202d return
ed to the State, and portions of it were
on duty in the coal regions, and on
August 3 it was mustered out of service,
its colonel haviug on March 7 previously
been brevettcd a brigadier geueral for
bis gallant conduct during the war.
General Albright is a prominent mem
tier of tba Moibodiet Cburcli, aud was
one of the lay delegates to the recent
Geueral Conference of that denomina
tion, held at Brooklyn, taking au active
part in the debates and deliberations.

Judge Scofield, the third candidate for
Congressman at large, is too well known
to require extended notice. ' Hu was
born in Chautauqua county, New Yoik.
March 11. 1S71 ; graduated at Hamilton
College in 1840, and removed to Warren
IV, where he was admitted to the bar in
1843 In 1850 and 1851 he was a mem
ber of the State Assembly : and from
1S57 to 1859 be was iu the State Sen
ate: Iu'lSGl he was appointed President
Judge of the the Eighteenth Judicial
District of the State, and in 1862 he
was elected a Representative from Penn
sylvania to the Thirty-eighth Congress,
being subseqently re-elected four times
in succession, and serving lately as
chairman of the Committee on Naval
Affairs. He was a delegate to the recent
National Republican Convention, and
acted as chairman of the Committee ou
Platform of that body. Judge Scofield
baa taken a high stauding in Congresss,
and is unquestionably one of the strong
eat men before the people in the State
He bad refused to accept a renomina
tiou for Congress in the Nineteenth dis
trict, which he has now represented for
neatly ten years, but will doubtless con
sent to go upon the ticket as a candidate
for Congressman at Large.
Ad angreement has been entered into

It is Holland, we brlieve. who telle us
that he Ikw eeen many worthy man
ntteily suo'ilsd by but attfmpti to reach
some political eminence. Peihupa never
before to day in the Listory of national
politic, baa this truth been so clearly
demonstrated to a waiting and interested
people. When we compare the Greeley
of '09 with the Greeley of the present;
when we ,,lce side by side his speeclrol
ran. dm, one year g-.,
with the utter
ances and mock sentiments of this same
bucolic philosopher now, we are forced to
coticlude that ambition has worked a sore
spot upon his nature that politics hath
made him mad, and that because success
and praise iu this department have been
-ienied him. be has delei mined "to button
his co.it to the chin, turn np his nose to
the world, and, grand, gloomy and pecu
liar, stand apart."
How or in what," inquires the Tri
bune of Jane 30, 1869. " is Gen Grant
found wanting I Have we not peace and
plenty iu the land 7 Is not our flag dis
played and respected on every sea ?
What foreign foe moli sls or threatens lis 1
Who fears insurrection at home or inva
sion from abroad ? In which of oar

iu a speech during the past year, he de
clares, While asserting the right of
every Republican to his untramtpelod
choice of a candidate for next President,
until a nomination is made we venture to
suggest that General Grant will be far
better qualified for that momentous trust
in 1872 than he was in 1SGS."
Now, can sensible, sober, pure-minded
rm.n find any tiling iu the administrative
acts of the President since that date that
would warrant an alteration of opinion I
Can men. moved simply by patriotic mo
lives, prompted only by an iutercst for
the good of the commonwealth aud hu
manity at large, actuated by no reasons
of personal aggrandizement, maintain that
Grant and his administration have beeu
practically a failure ? No. The world.
we are told, is not a con'emp iLle master.
It deals with practical life, ami is guided
by experience and common sense. That
a state of affairs exists to-day even bet
ter than that mentioned iu our quotation,
every one is assured. The people kuow
Grant, and have known all about him
since DimelMin, Vicksbnrg, and Appo
matox ; and that they tru.t in and believe
him, finds answer in the crutch of every
wounded soldier, in the heart of every
widowed mother, and In the tears of every
orphaned child. No matter what slan
derers may uttr ; no matter what libel
ers may pen and send forth as blinds and
lies upon the world ; they shall be con
demned by the words of their own mouths,
iu the shelter afforded us by Cbappaqua's
prophecy, that " we shall hear lamenta
tiou after lamentation over Grant's fail
ure, from those only whoee wish is father
to the thought ; but the American peo
ple will let them pass unheeded."
Four trunks full of secret service rec
ords of the Rebel Government were re
cently purcliaeed for $75,000 from Col.
John F. Picket once a rebel colonel, by
the Government at Washington. These
are valuable pnpers, and will be highly
prized by future writers, by which they
will be able to get an inside view
of the workings of the Rebel Government
The Gnverment has already published
one of the le Iters or reports' made or
written in Canada, iu D-cember, 1864.
by Jacob Thompson, who was head of
the Hubel Secret Service operating iu
Canada. It reports the existence of se
cret organizations, in the North iu the
interest of the " Rebels the plans that
were laid, and how t'uey were frustrated
but does uot give the names of the
leading men of the North with whom
they held communion It is a matter of
regret that the paper recognizing and
giving the names of the men iu the North
who co-operated with the Rebels, has
not beeu placed in the bands of the Gov
ernment. It would be a document of the
highest interest. Col. Picket says that
it never came injo his possession. It is
believed that Johu C. Creckenridge took
it with him when be fled from Rich

Dr. Livingstone has been found in the
interior of Africa, alive and well. Recent
ly two letters from bis pen were publish
ed iu the New York Herald. In h s sec

gro as follows :
Ibe ancient Lgyp'ian. with his largn.
round, black eyes, full, luscious lips, and
somewhat depressed nose, is far nearer
the typical negro than the west coast
Afican. who has been debased by the
unhealthy land he lives iu. Slaves gen
erally, and especially those on the west
coast at Zanzibar aud elsewhere, are ex
tremely ugly. I bave no piejudice
against their color Indeed, any one
wbo lives long among them forgets they
are black and feels that they are just
teilowmen. But the low, retreating
forehead, and other physical peculiari
ties common among slaves and West
African negroes, always awakens eome
feelings of aversion. I would not otter
a syllable calculated to press down either
class more deeply in the mire in which it
is already sunk, but I wish to 'point ont
thit these are not typical Africans any
more than typical Englishmen, and that
the natives on nearly all the highlands
of the interior of the continent are, as a
rule, fair average specimens of human
ity.

of posts cross-wise, and 3 rows length

braced thoroughly. The two inside
rows'of poete had each a flg of some
nation floating. I think the flags of all
nations were there represented I could
only see one with the stars and stripes,
but some others came near being like it.
A gallery traversed three sides of the
building. The whole interior is floored
and laid off in divisious, and pews and
aisles like in a church. At the entrance
of each aiele stood two or three ushers to
admit or reject the people, as they came

An exchange says that a correspond

proposition to pension rebel soldiers is
informed that it was virtually made at

fought with Lee 'and Johnston would

general opinion that

has not been regularly pre.ienied for the suf
frages of the Republicans of Juniata, in

He has filled the
office for two terms with honesty, and tare
ab'liiy. and is tbe choice of nine tenths of

Thtce out of the five counties, Cninn. Suy
der and Nortbumberlan I, have already unan
imously declared for bim, and Dauphin, on
t!ie2',thof August, will most certa:nly do i
the same, tearing only our little county re
maining. Cndor such circumstances any
faciious opposition to his unanimous renom

is and we think lhat it is Ibe duty of every Re
publican in Juniata to stake his nomination

If we were in the babil of doing no, certain

limits of tbe rules adopted by a popular rote
of the people of this county ; and no m-.n
but one who is igntrant of tbe proper inter

can assist in moulding a new fundamental
law that shall be in harmony witb the spir.t
of reform that ia abroad in the land. I know
of no one in our county who is better quali
