The news from Maine will awaken the echoes everywhere as it Bashes through the land, and will shiver the tim bers of the Greeley concern beyoud repair. The latest accnuuU state that the majority will not be short of sixteen thousaud Re publican majority for Governor, and every Kopublican candidate for Congress elected. To the Pennsylvania and Indiana Demo crats and Liberals thisisakucll to summon them to defeat. Tin s far we lmve not tiotieed that a De mocratic county convention where that party has a majority, has eudorsed G reeley. It is only in counties w here it is in a min ority that this is done, lit the hope of beat ing Graut. It is also a fact that in ma jority couuttes the Democrats do not share their "fat" local otllees with the Liberals, these are facts worth considering by Rc publicans who are asked to eat boiled crow. Mil. Bcckalew lias not yet declared for Greeley. It is believed tl.at such an avowal would cost him thousands of votes, so unpopular is the sago among Democrats in some portions of the State. Yet, never Ihelcss, Buckalcw is a full Greeley He. f ci e v. rv The Repvblicax Convention. Tho Republican County Convention on Tues day last nominated what is admitted by all to be a strong ticket. That llicro was much good material before the Convention is shown by the closeness of the ballots. Somo of the nominations were made after a close contest. The nominees are well qual ified for the positions they were nominated; they a ro men ( well known throughout the county, and whose characters will bear the strictest scrutiny for honesty aud probity. Hon. John B. Packer's nomination for Congress has long been conceded. Having received tho unanimous nomination of the other counties in the district, he now is tho unanimous choice for a third term a com pliment highly deserved. His character aud worth are so well known that comment at our hands is unnecessary. His election by a largely increased majority is already a foregone conclusion. The selection of Wm. A. Soiiek, Esq., for Delegate to the Constitutional Conven tion is a good one. He is au able - lawyer, aud if chosen bv tho conferees in this dis trict, would make a popular candidate and a useful member. Oscaii Foist, Esq., of Wutsontown, who was selected for the Legislature, is a young lawyer of good standing with indus trious habits. Ho is well and favorably known in the upper cud of tho county and iii Montour county. He is well acquainted with legislative rules, aud will make a use ful member of that body. For SbcrifT,S.H.UoTUEitMEL,Esq.,of Tre vorton, was uominated. He is a thorough business mau, correct in all transactions, and fully competent to conduct tho office in a manner satisfactory to all parlies. The office of Sheriff needs considerable over hauling, and we know of no one better qual ified to put matters to rights ogain than Mr. Rothermel. Being of a kind disposi tion the people need not fear a tyrant, wheu in trouble. His electiou is a forgone con-1 elusion. i Forl'rolhouotary, our young friend L. i T. Kohkbacii, Esq., of Sunbury, was se- ! lected as the nominee. Mr. Hohrbach's j qualifications and abilities are so superior that there is no difficulty in deciding be-1 tweeu him and his oppoueut, if the people j desire a careful and competent person in ' that office. His legal abilities are such that j there will be no necessity for him to rely j ou his clerks to transact the business. Mr. J. G. Durham, of Delaware, the nominee for Commissioner is n. thorough business man, a fine scholar aui well suit ed for that position. We are. pleased to see that the people are becoming aroused j aud bring forward good men for that office j men who nre known to be qualified to ' transact the business of tho county them- selves. This officer is probably the most j important to the taxpayers, and it will be ; to the interest of eveiy voter to have the : best meu iu the couuty elected.to that office. ! It is admitted by all parties that the office I needs a radical change. A look at the hea vy expenditures should convince every one that iLere is something behind the screen. Let us elect men who will be able to inves tigate the matter, and give the tax-paycis an insight 'Hf what has transpired for the ' last ten years past. For our part we are j opposed to leaving somo forty thousand j dollars in the hands of collectors and have j a tax levied of some fifty thousand dollars j annually to defray the couuty expenses, j By the election of Mr. Durham we can have hopes of having this matter remedied. For Coroner, Frederick IIeek, of Coal twp., received the unanimous nomina tion. He is a highly respected citizen and will make a most efficient officer. Jacob F. M tench, of Shamoklu town ship for Auditor is au excellent selection.' There is no more "important office iu the county than that of iho Auditor, aud the convention did well iu selecting so intelli gent aud upright a man as Mr. Muench. The Straight-outs. We give the resolutions of the Convention of tho Straight-out Democracy in another place. Tho convention has developed plainly the fact that there are hundreds of DtMUocra ts in the country, who are utterly and unal terably opposed to giving up their princi ples. They refine to sacrifice everything they have struggled so long to sustain, and all they hope in the future is that their life long cucmy aud abuser, Horace Greeley, may not be elected President. There are numbers of such men iu Northumberland county, men who have voted aud vorkcd for the Democratic party because they honestly believed iu its principles. They wanted no offices and want none now. These men either refuse to vote or will support Graut. Tho convention at Louis ville will strengthen these Democrats in Northumberland county, for it shows them they have friend In other parts of tho country. Willi 'no honest Democrats in his party, and the "liberal" ring composed entirely of "soreheads," Mr. Greeley must begin to think ho is iu queer company. Judging from tho late elections, however, the crowd is not veiy large. Greeley and the Democracy. It Is only a year or two since that Mr, Greeley's paper, the.N. . lrtbune, declared "that although every Democrat was uot a horse thief, yet every horse-thief was a democrat. " But since the 'great reformation at Balti more, when almost, the eutiro Democracy were sold or miraculously converted to Grecleyism tho Tribune uses language less exceptionable wlu -specking of the converted Itcmocrata. But in regard tJ the unconverted Straight-out Democrats, who assembled iu convention in Louisville last week, the Tribune refers to them us the most reckless party of villains ever assem bled outside of the penitentiary, worsecven thau the horse-thief Democrats, already re ferred to. How forcibly the action of the 7Vbtne,then and now, illustrates the maxim that "circumstances alter cases,'.' and what a commentary ou consistency. Dr. Shoeppe, recently acquitted at Car lisle.

That Jerry Black was authorized to con fer with them by special pcrmissiou of our Government, and lie informed Buckalcw that he might talk to them. This is Buek alcw's own version of his interview with these traitors. He admits that he had no authority except from Jerry Black, 'Buch anan's Attorney-General, who gave, ns his opinion, that he, Buclmnnu, possessed no power to coerce tho Rebel States. Tho question naturally arises, win, did liuika kw, without direct jiermiiwion, desire to h'tre an interview with these trait'irs V That is the question. No loyal man would seek such an interview. lie says it took place in presence of his wife. Just tho person of all others that would not expose any trea sonable conversation that might take place. Tho following testimony "takeu during the trial of thu assassins of Abraham Lin coln, which we find iu the llarrisburg Teleorai!., shows tho character of tho persons with whom BuOkalew voluntarily sought an interview : Morns Villainy of Hitkalew's Fiuends Tun MfiuiKii of Lincoln a Paiit of tiieiu scheme The Piieshhint Mahkf.o foii ' DifTin cTioN Infected Cloth inu Sent Him by Kxfiiess ab a Piiesent The bwous Phoofs.

AND II IS COMPLETE VINDICATION Pending the Evans Investigation, when Geu. Harlranft was pursuing that defaul ter with all the means which tho law af forded, the Evans ring, or certain members of it, in order to force tho Auditor General and Stale Treasurro to compromise the claim of the State against Evans, caused the publication of two letters one in tho New York Tribune and tho other iu tho New York Hun, of the issues of February 28th making specific charges against Gen eral Hartranft, as follows ; First That Geu. Hartranft l;ad illegally used tho moiicy of the Commonwealth in applying the samo in carrying on various operations in stock, to tho extent of several millions of dollars, and to the payment of his private debts. Second That Gen. Hartranft had used tho money of tho Commonwealth iu tho purchase of State bonds for his own benefit particularly tho purchase cf tftS'.l.fiOO of the live per ceut. loan, and $31,050 of the six percent, loan and the sale of the samo to the sinking fund at a profit to himself of 2,700. jfVit'nl That Gen. Hartranft bad cor ruptly rec ived tho sum of 87,000 from G. O. Evan'j, tho State Agent. The r.bove ate the charges then and there made against Gen Hartranft, aud it will be seen that they are as specific as words and figures can make them. Let us sec hmv they were met. On tho day imme diately succeeding their publication and at the request of the oflicur accused, Senator Harry White -presented to the Senate then in session, a preamble and resolution, em bodying these accusations in full, and pro viding for tho appointment of a committee, by the Speaker of the Senate, to investigate the charges said committee to have full power lo send for persons and papers. After debate the whole matter was referred to the Evans Investigation Committee, which had all the power with which it was proposed to clothe the special committee. Charges so direct and delinatc, one would suppose, would be easily investigated. The committee, armed with plenary power, could lay its hand upon any person or thing necessary to establish tho truth or falsity of the accusations. There was upon that committee the distinguished Democratic Seuator, William A. Wallace, a prospec tive and possible candidate for Governor, and the party accused of these offenses was, in the language of tho writer who prepared thu slander, "the expectant candidate for the Governor's chair. Had there been ono iota of truth iu them even the shadow or semblance of truth would not Mr. Wal lace have taken advantage of it 'i Had there been even ground for suspicion, would not that fact have been set forth by Mr. j Wallace ? That alone would have been sufficient to slain an unsullied reputation, and would have in some measure tended to excuse the nssailelits of Gen. Hartranft. But mark iho resiiH. After careful inquiry, and an examination of all thu witnesses whose testimony was likely to throw any light upon the charges, the committee, upon evidence elicited under oath, pro nounced these specific charges wholly un true. The report is brief, but quite us di rect nud positive as are the charges. It was not only signed but written by Seuator Wallace, ami is in the words following : "On the 2',lth day of February, 1S72, a resolution ami preamble in reference to a communication in the New York Tribune of the picceding day, were referred to this committee. In that communication cer tain resolutions were quoted which reflect ed on John F. Harlranft, Auditor General, and Kobcrt W. Mackey, Stale Treasurer, anil made specific charges against thgm, iu their official capacity. It was made our duty lo investigate these charges and ascer- tain the lacts attending Ino attempted in troduction of said resolutions and the pub lication of the r.'.mc. We have ascertained that the results referred lo in Ihe commu nication to the Tribune were prepared by Stratum, counsel for Evans, Evans him self or Dr. William Payne, one of his bail, and that they jointly attempted to procure their introdueiion into and passage by the the Senate and House of Representatives Til AT THK FACTS CHARGED IN THE RESOLUTIONS RECITED IN THAT COMMUNICATION ARE UN TRUE, and that in pursuance of this in quiry we called bef..rc U3 all the witnesses whuaj testimony seemed likely to throw any light upon the transactions charged ; that several communications have appear ed in the New York Tribune and New York .Sit ft reflecting upon the officials above named, and iher persons iu private ca- aeity; that these have beeu based upon data furnished by Dr. William Payue. or some other friend Of O. Evans, anil that UPON CAREFUL INQUIRY OF WIT N ESSES UNDER OATH, WE FIND THAT THE SPECIFIC CHARGES MADE IN SAID COMMUNICATIONS ARE NOT TRUE." James I. Graham, 4 ILL1AM A.

This acquittal is as complete as auy ever rendered by a court of justice. Each count iu the indictment was carefully passed upon and a square verdict of uot quilty eudors ed thereon. First. It in not true that Gen. Hartranft ever illegally used a dollar of tho public funds. Second. It is nut true that General Harlranft purchased aud sold Slate bonds for his own benefit and emolument. Third. ( is not true that Geu. llart rauft corruptly received money from Geo. O. Evans. The committee even goes further than this. They not only return a verdict of not yuilty as to cuch uud every specification, but they find that tho prosccutiou was malicious that is was instituted by ono of three persons; either Evans himself, his counsel, or his bail ; and that it was based upon data furnished by some frieud of Evans, whom Hartranft was briuging to jus lice or Ids crimes.

Of (104 voles for President, Chas. O'Conor, of Now York, received 000, and Pendleton 4. For Vico Presldeut, John Quincy Adams was nominated. lJcforo tho nomi nation Mr. O'Conor wrote a long letter de clining It, and at the same time taking strong ground againsA Greeley. On Thurs day, a telegram from Mr. Adams, as fol lows, was read i Qumcr, Mass., Sept., G, Colonel Bhiton Duncan, Louisville, : I will gladly servo as Vico President with Mr. O'Conor, but will accept nothing else. Mr. O'Conor must positively stand. John. Q. Adams. By a vote of C44 to 30, tho following reso lution was adopted : Resolved, That it is the sense of this con vention that Charles O'Conor, having fully and heartily approved the objects aud pur poses of this convention, anil having been unanimously nominated for President, and John tiuiney Adams, of Massachusetts, for Vico President, the delegates of tho Democratic party here assembled are un willing tomnko other nominations in their stead, and that the Democratic party will givo them, iu any event, their undivided support. It is stated that tho committee appointed to notify Mr. O'Conor of his nomination, think that they may induce him to recon sider his determination and accept. Tho following is tho platform of the Straight-out Democracy, Whereas, Frequent recurrences to tho first principles of eternal vigilance against abuses, are tho wisest provisions for libertv. which is tho source ot progress, and fidel ity to our constitutional system is the only protection for cither ; therefore I Jiesolved, That the origiual bnsis of our ' whole political structure is constant in j every part thereof. The people of each ' Slate voluntarily formed tho Union, and j each State provided by its written Consti- ! tutiou for everything a State should do for the protection of life, liberty aud prop erty within it, aifd each State, jointly with ' otheis, provided a-Todcral Union for for-1 cign and inter-State relations. Jtcsolecd, That nil governmental powers, whether State or Federal, are trust powers, coming from the pcoplo of each State, aud that they are limited to Iho written letter of the constitution, nnd the laws passed iu pursuance of it, which powers must be ex ercised in tho utmost good faith, the Con stitution itself providing in what manner they may be altered and amended. Jlisolved, That the interests of labor and capital should not bo permitcd to conllict, but should be harmonized by judicious legis 1 ition. While such conllict continues, labor, which is the parent of wealth, is entitled to paramount c msideratton. ltesulrtd. That wo proclaim lo tho world that principle is to be preferred to power ; that ihe democratic party is held together ! by the cohesion of lime-honored principles, i which they will never surrender for all the offices which Presidents can confer. Tho j pangs of minorities are doubtless excruciat ing, but we welcome an eternal minority, i under the banner inscribed with our prin- . ciples, rather than an almighty anil ever lasting majority purchased by their abaud-, oument. Ucnolved, That having been betrayed at j Baltimore into a false creed and false lead- : ership by that convention, we repudiate both, nnd appeal to the people to approve : our platform aud to rally to the polls to support a true platform aud candidates i who embody it. Uesolved, That we are opposed to giviug public lands to corporations and favor their j disposal In actual settlers only. j Jicsoleed, That we are in favor of a judi-: cious tariff for revenue purposes only aud that we ure unalterably opposed to class legislatiou and taxation which enriches the few at the expense of the many, under the plea of protection. lu advocating a Tariff for revenue only, it is simply in accordance with the princi ples of the Democratic party. In this Ihe Straight-outs are consistent to tho position of their party on this question. Of course ihe straight-out ticket, if Mr. O'Conor stands, has no chance of being elected, but with liir.i and Mr. Adams it will make a strong run, ns they are good men and there are hundreds of thousands of Democrats who will uot sacrifice their principles, aud who wish to preserve a nucleus for the Democratic party to reor ganize on. We shouldn't be surprised if the Straight-out ticket would poll from 700,000 lo 8U0.UO0 votes. Greeley is daily growing weaker, and it is clearly demon strated that under uo consideration cau he be elected.. THE Vlt'TOKV IN .MAINE. Entire Legislative Ticket Elected. Repulican Majority 10,000.

Now they should hunt up Grant's great speeches and clvo the public their silent portion. ChifqMquikke paper. Wo have cheerfully hunted up a few of Grant's great speeches. Hero they are : "I caro uot for promotion, so long as our army are successful." Grant to Sherman, Feb. 1802. "If my course is not satisfactory, remove me at once. I do not wish in any wny to impede the success of our arms." Grant to llaUeck; Feb. 0, 1802. "No terms, except unconditional and im mediate surrended cau be accepted. I pro pose to movo immediately upou your works." To Gen. liuckner, at Fort Don aldson, Feb. 10, 1802. "No theory of my own will ever stand in tho way of my executing, in good faith, any order I may roccivo from those in au thority over me. "-Grioit to Secretary Chase, May 29, 1802. "The effusion of blood you proposo stop ping by this course cau do ended ot auy timo you may choose, by an unconditional surrender of tho city and garrison. To General Pcmborton, ut Vicksbury, July 3, 1803. "Wo have now ended the sixth day of very heavy fighting. The result to this timo is very much in our favor. Our loss has been heavy as well as thoso of our enemy. I think tho loss of tho enemy must be greater. Wo have taken over 5, 000 prisoners in battle, whilst ho has taken from us but few, except stragglers. 1 pro pose to light it nut on this line it it takes all summer." lo Secretary Stanton, from before Sixittsijlvaniu, Mag 11, '04. "This is a Republic, w here the will of tho pcoplo is the law of tho rand." Grant's letter to President Johnson, August, 1807. "Human liberty is the only true founda tion of human government." Grant' slitter to Hie citizens of Memphis. "Lot us have peace." Grant's letter May 29, 1808. 'I shall have no policy of myoWn to en force against the will of the people." (f')iit'.s Utter May 28, 1808. Chappaquack papers are respectfully in vi',ed"to give the public their silent points." Wu don't see any. BudKALKW voted to pay our soldiers in gold in 1SK4. Our expenses then were S2, 500,000 per day. Gold was 2.40. The nation was staggering from the tremendous tax upon our people to put down the lie hellion of the Democratic iarty. No nation ever made such sacrifices, even in self de fense. Ours could do no more. If this vast expenditure would not will the nation was lost, AND THE HEllELLION WAS Sl'C ( essftl ! No soldier demanded payment in gold. No patriot dreamt we could raise any more money to tarry on the war. Any proposition to increase our expenses was a direct oid to the Rebellion, and this whole transaction shows that the proposal to pay our soldiers in gold was intended DESTROY THIS NATION, AND AID THE KEIIELLION 1 l'owel of Kentucky an open rebel made the motion. It received only the votes of Senators well known to be tit sym pathy leilh Treason ! Powel, Saulshury, Wright, BliKALEW and Garrett Davis voted for this rebel villainy ! And so wc clearly see that Mr. Buckalew's record, on ulti'h lie reliesfjr his diftnse to'i'HK charge ok treason, furnishes the fullest proof of his disloyalty. His company in this caso as in Canada is conclusive against him ! Only one remained to destroy his country ! Increasing our (j-oMfx ruined us! and Buck a lew hastened to AVAIL HIMSELF OK THE ONLY REMAINING TRICK TO RUIN HIS COUNTRY ! If Buckalcw had succeeded in -'paying our soldiers in gold" they did not want. Grant would have surrendered to Lee, and Buckalcw would have the reward from re bels commensurate with the service he had done them, by increasing our war expenses to 3,000,111)0 a day ! 1 Taxpayers, what do you think of this V dQcto bbcrtiscmcnts.
