THURSDAY; MAY 31, 1868. OUR CANDIDATES The Allegheny County Con ven tio , which assembled on Tuesday last was composed of thoughtful, loyal men. Tt' resolutions expressing the political et ...A of the party are toned in the true wint of patriotism and forbearance. R•ITY Patriotic citizen of the county carn ,..t fail endorsing them. Th e candid a t es ~ominated are men of ster ling worth and integrity, eminently deserv ing of the riffitage'of the loyal masses. We have pl a ted the tihket at the head of our semzuf page, and a brief Review of the so ciarand political record or the individual candidates will not be out of place. For the office of Sheriff, a very impar. tent one,- SAMUEL B. CLULEY has been nominated. He was born in Philadelphia in 1826, but at a very early age came to this city and made It his home. lie learned the carpenter trade, which he successfully followed for a number of years. Possess: Mira naturally gifted mind, he abandoned the trade and became one of the reportorial corps of the Pittsburgh Disporrli. His connection with that journal was of the moat pleasing and satisfactory nature, and the warm manner in which our neighbor advocated his nomination may be at trlbrited to old assochnions. In 1857 be was chosen_by Sheriff BODY PATTERSON as his . ,Dnputy y - *Melt pitisition lie held up to the dote of that official's term of office. Sher iff Parransox Was succeeded in office by JAlrint L. GEATIAM, who reappointed Mr. CLULET as Deputy. In 1860, Sheriff GRA MME was succeeded in office by the lament. ed HABRY Wooos, who, upon assuming his duties, retained Mr. CLULET as Deputy. In August, 1863, Sheriff Woods was sum moned to eternity, and the community strongly urged upon Governor CURTIN the appointment of Mr. CLULET to fill the va cancy that; 'occasioned. He consented to accept the office for the unex pired term, three months, and permitted the widow of his predecessor to draw the emoluments- accruing front the office. At the :expiration of his brief term, the present. incumbent, JOHN H. STEW ART, Esq : ,was chosen by the people his succes .;:sOraillien,imtrance to office he acknowl. edgettthe:abilltrof Mr. CIXLET hp eon ferring upon hint the office of Deputy Sher iff, which position lie has honorably and faithfully filled up to the present time. Mr. Ct.truer is a Tleasant, affable gentle. man, a firm advocate of human liberty, and a faithful, trustworthy member of the Union Republicartparty. Ile is immensely popu lar With the voters of the county, and no better than could Itave been selected to lead the ticket. The public interest demands that he be elected to an office in which he has had such ripe experience. Per Clerk - of the Courts, also an impor taut Office, the Convention wisely conferred the nomination upon an empty-sleeve pat . riot, JOHN G. BitowN, Hampton township, late of Company II ?.(12,1 Pa. Volunteers. Mr. B. warn brave and hodlant soldier, and received the wound which render, hint incapable of performing manual lalkor the Battle of Seven Pines. lie inn gentle man of good business imalinattions and scholastic attainments. lie won for him , self an enviable reputation as a clerk in Provost Marshal gpsTEß's office of this - district. He is a plain, unassuming gentle man, and numbers a host of friends. His nomination conclUsively proves that the patriotic masses are willing to recognize the claims of a wounded soldier upon their gmtituiffe, anti to acknowledge in a sub stantial manner the services rendered our flag in the hour of-trial. Upon ALEXANDER lIILANDs was conferred the nomination of Clerk of the Orphans' Court. Mr. H. is a thorough gentleman, and in every respect worthy of the nomination. It was given Win as are cognition or his unfaltering devotion to the principles of the party. If elected he 'will make ariattentive anti efficient officer. There is not a more popular roman upon the ticket than Mr. Etu..kxDs, and lie will poll a very heavy vote. HENRY SNIVEL , / is the candidate for Recorder. He is a gentleman thor oughly experienced in business matters, and no wiser selection could have been • made. At present he is employed as chief clerk in the County Controller's office. He is a true patriot, and has ever been a work ing member of the party which places him In the field as a candidate. Tonal"' H. Gust, of Plum township, late private in the 105th Pennsylvania Vol unteers, has been nominated for Register. This brave gentleman enlisted in 1861, and served with honor and distinction until wounded at the battle of Fair Oaks, in 1862. He was shot in the leg and render ed a cripple for life. Mr. GRAY is a gentle man, endowed with superior business tal ent and is a ripe scholar. He will make an energetic and capable officer. For Commissioner °aortas HAIM, Ton, has been nominated. We *eel that Mr. HAMILTON- is too well known throughout the county to need any word of commendation from us. He is a firm, tin. flinching Republican, and worthy of the outline of every" loyal voter. • Jortee F. Dttsvo, Mifflin township, has been nominated for Director of the Poor. The Convention,' :in selecting Mr. DRAT° for this office, took into consideration his goodness of heart and humane, Christian character. If elected, the charitable coin. infinity may rest'issured Riat the duties of the office will not be neglected. He is a staunch, reliable Union Republican. Perhaps the most important4ject to the people is to secure intelligent and trust worthy representatives in the Assembly. They should be experienced,' stireWdinen; men who fear not doing theft' duty and whose integrity is unimpeachable. such have been placed In nomination, and we doubt whether better citizens could be ibund in the county.

The ship carpenters, now on a strike here, have adopted a resolution that If the bosses appointed a committee to confer with the trades, the latter would be ready to meet them and hear any proposition they had to offer. The mon spoke In very decided terms as to their determination to obtain the eight hour system, which they declared was the sole question at issue, wages not having had any thing at all to do with the strike.

A loan has been comparatively recently con tracted with Mr. Drew, under which the Com pany hypothecated the 11,000 shares of com mon stock returned by Mr. Drew on payment of a portion of his loan from the proceeds of the sterling loan negotiated by Mr. Pearson, so that Mr. Drew now holds 28,010 shares of the stock, beside an amount of convertible bonds as collateral, for his loan of 4d,000,000. The President, Mr. Borden, assured the Board that In the event of the earning e q ualhe road continuing to the close of July, to what they have been May, the company would be in a position to pay a dividend upon Rostock, although we understand upon good authority that the road made a clear loss of .400,0 W upon Its March Crank, and $3OlOOl upon that of April. Whether the inipposed dividend is to be considered as playable out of Mr. I)row's loan, or from profits of the road, we are not Informed. The public have, however, a very strong opin ion that the Company is dbiposed to continue Its old policy of borrowing money to pay Its dividends. there would seem to be very good reasons for supposing that the enormous sales of Erie stock dming the last few days have been made for the purpose of raising money to pay a anal instalment of the loan to the Company. Of course It is to be presumed that the stork sold was that held under hypotheca tion. The Pow aays, on onlcial authority, that there has been no over inane of Erie stock.
