Too much cure cannot be taken iu the se lection of delegates to that Convention.' The best men should be chosen, who feel tin intercut in the, advancement of the re publican party. WelTtid. a laige number of candidates nre nnnonnccd for'tlie differ ent ofllces, who may feel that they should Ik) placed upon the ticket. Though nil nre wortliy,pcrhnps, the matter will bo left with the delegates to ehoose, and in doing so there cannot be too much care taken In the selection of proper persons. What we need is good men competent to fill the po sitions, who are honest and will havo the confidence of the people. The two parties in this county are nearly on a level as to majority, nud delegates should take into consideration that to nominates a ticket composed of objectionable men, is certain defeat to the party. Therefore good judg ment should be exercised by every delegate in order to nominate a strong ticket regard less of prej ud ices or pa r titil i ty for any caud i datc who may haveaunounced himself,and look to the interests of the people. All canuot bo successful, nnd thoso who may be defeated should readily yield to the de cision of the delegates, and keep harmony in the ranks. Kemcmbcring the motto, that "united we stand, divided we fall." Mil. Lemuel Siiivmax, the Democratic candidate for Register t Recorder has hau n haul time during tho past week in trying to make the Irish people of the coal region believe that ho wanted to support Mr. Gal lagher when a candidate for Assembly, but didn't. If there wns another in the Shipmau family without an office it might be blamed on him, but unfortunately I,em uei being the only otic of the family hold ing no ofllce, and the cat being out cf the ( bag, it will be harder for him to shut the eyes of the Irish than it was two years ago when ho went upon the principle that "no Irish need apply."' Mr. Shipman should, however, be cnli? tied to some credit for his efforts to en hance tho interest of Ring candidates last fall, by traveling iu company with a coun ty official, through the Mahonoys, and de ceiving the people in that region. To cir culate the story that Hat Ilejter had been pardoned, on the eve of an election, to de ceive the people in a whole community, was prooawy more man any ordinary man ; be considered vacated of cavalry.

They have scouted every TfiE Republican party is the party ofj the puoplc.. Its history is a glorious one, ' nud it principles are those of puiity and progress. Tlie only danger that besets it is tho e ntrusting of its destiny to selfish adventurers who have no love for its prin ciples, nnd only identify themselves with it that it may bear them to office and op portunities for obtaining wealth. Tho party should be more watchful in guard- iug against this kind of material hereafter. None but men devoted to the principles of the party.nnd known to be honest nnd true should enjoy its confidence or be permitted to control its influence, lk-n Duller nnd his type should all be cast out from Its fold, nnd put where their baneful influence can reflect uo shame on its fair reputation. And now, fellow Democrats, let us have harmony, and redeem our county from tho stigma that now rests upou it through Re publican rule ikiuoeral nf hitt tcuh: Is it tlic breaking up of the Court House Ring, the-paying nfflhe Democratic Coun ty debt, llie excellent condition the offices aud the Court House is kept, the strict at tention the olliccrsarcpuyiug toourcounty n flairs, the polite tivtitnient received from j the officers, the paying oil" the county or- I ders when prcscuud, llie shutting dowai on having wine supcra iu the offices nnd other evil doings, thnt our neighbor considers as a stigma lhat now rests upon the county through Republican rule V Will our ueih- i.i- b;r explain. The Democratic politicians in this State are doiug their best to stimulate the for mation of Fanners' Granges in Pennsyl vania. They are hopeless of ever carrying the Suite under tlic Democratic name ; and they have seized upon the Parmer's move ment in the west as a godsend. The first spot in which the Mrangt s appeared was iu JVrba county, nnd it was noteworthy that the foremost meu therein were the local Democratic managers. The inaohin ' try of the new organization n fiord them something new to work with, and thoso who have failed with old means always welcome the ad vent of new ngeneies. From Dorks, the Order spread into Montgomery county, aud probably into the other ad ja cent JKmiocratic counties; nud, iu our . mind, the conviction is clear that tho aim oftho liemocratic managers in Pennsylva nia is to encoarngo the growth, and to gnin the control, of no orgnnizntion through which they hope to sesloro themselves to power.

Tho deeds were recorded here in April last. a no iuiiiii.iii claims io noiii uircci irom the Common wealth, bavins' mid for these lands, nnd that the title has never been st to them. Tho I'hiiadebhia and Head ing railroad company claims these lands bv tax title, aud also by what is known nsthc Grant title, commencing ovor twenty years after the Morris title. The plain till alleges that the tax title is good for nothing, and that tiic Supreme Court has nlready declar ed the (irnnt title to be a fraud. The rail rond company recorded a mortgage to the Fidelity Insurance, Trust and Sate Deposit company, oi riiiiaueipiua, in trust tor the benefit of JSritish capitalists in this country, July 7th, 1871, for tf'J5,000,000. Mr. Jor dan, with Judge Shipman, made a survey of these lauds in May last, and caused several dwellings to be erected nud leased. Tlic railroad company sent a large body of men, who surrounded, upset mid burned up the houses and took forcible possession, creating quite an excitement. Tins Rkigx o? Ti:i:iam on The Eon lri:. Iite reports from the Rio Grande go to show that a terrible state of affairs exists in that section. Notwithstanding MeKeuzie's recent raid, forays upon the I Texas settlements continue, nnd murders j by Mexican outlaws are of daily occurrence. I The situation at present, as described iu a j letter dated fort Clarke, July IS, to the KqmbUcnn of Washington, is indeed pain ful. The writer says : From the reports of murder, robbery and devastation which have recently reached u. and are reaching us every day, it would seem that their work of eruefwelfare and savage rapacity has commenced in earnest. Scarcely a day elapses that the bleeding and scalped body of some poor, isolated frontiersman is ' not found scorching under the summer sun. Stock and horses have been taken away from the midst of popul ous and seemingly-secure settlements, aud driven to the wigwams of tha savages or tho haciendas of1 their Mexican allies. The troops which had bom recently tinned here, over one thousand strong, are now scattered in detachments throughout the countty. so that the garrison here may (iui hum 'u inc country, uoui inc. luouranue to the Rio Honda, and closely cuarded every creek nnd crossing ; yet, notwith standing this vigilnnce on the tiart of the troop, the savages and their allies contin ue to increase their incursions and carry on a more extensive devastation of our terri tory than they havo dared to attempt for many years previous. The fact has been established that the operation of troops can never be successful against Indians on a frontier so extended as ours so longas they are protected and aided in their murderous depredations upon us by tlie Mexu au frou tier authorities of the States nd Coahuile and Tnmaulipas. The officials aud people of these border States without regard to international rights or treaty obligations, not only per mit the savages to commit depredations on our property, to recross tlie boundary line with our property, but they aid them in every manner possible, and" are generally the recipients of the booty captured from our o u unfortunate citizens, ns is evi denced titno nud again by the large herds of cattle and horses being found in their possession. This nefarious traffic with the Indians is too great a source of revenue to the people and authorities of t'oahtiila to be saci ilied to the peace, welfare and safety of llie people of llio frontier tit Texas. Tliey prefer that the inhabitants of our frontier should be robbed, plundered, and murder- fill III till .t'l !

A terrible murder and suicide took pine last Thurf.iay evening in Philadel phia. Tho victims are Edward Schuster- y-t g.u years, aim ins I wile, Mary, aged twenty-six years.to whom he had been married two months. They uiu not live wen together anil Have con stantly quarreled since their marrkge. He was thrown out of work two weeks ago, and they lived with tho wife's father, nt at OOO South Second street. After supper on the evening named they retired to their apartment,-on the third floor. About nine o'clock the wife's father went up stairs ami found the body of his son-in-law lying on the floor. On further investigation his daughter was fouud in another apartment alio dead, with her throat, cut from ear to ear. There had evidently been a terrible btrugglo between them, as marks of blood were found in both r joins. Schusterrcitcr had killed his wife with a razor and had put an end to his own lite by taking corrosive sublimate. No noise, of quarreling or dis turbance had beeu heard by tho other mem bers of tho family. Tho wife preseuted a horrible spectacle, having terrible gushes in her throat. An alarm was iustantly given, and a crowd soon gathorcd around the house, of which tho polico took charge. Jealousy is supposed to havo beeu tbecuuse of the terrible tragedy. Imoumatiox received at Washington represents Vice President Allison's health to be so poor that it is doubtful whether he may be able to preside ovor the Seuate at its ueit be-boion. Should he uot, Senator Matt. C&rpeutcr will assume that duty. The belief prevail that Mr. Wilson injured himself by execsuivu exertion during the campaign of lust year. Akothkti lUiMioAD.

The tract is about seventeen miles In letiffth nnd five miles wide, with the Middlecreek railroad ruu- ning on the one side and tho Ixswisburg, Centre & Spruce Creek road on the other. i he purchasers value it at ovor one hun dred thousand dollars.

All For Love An Insane Suicide End of the Market ar Action of the Health Hoard Sustained What a Newspaper "Interviewer" Rrocuiit aiiout Lizzie Lloyd Kino Gossip. From our special correspondent New York, Aru. (i, ls7:J. An Insane Suicide. Jlt CllllUill Vitiintnu ......is... . . ...j.. .... . was noticed looking into the windows of the Luthcrn Church corner Rroome and Elizabeth Streets. Suddenly he drew from his noekets a Colt's revolver nud a nud a single barreled pistol and aiming both nt bis breast fired and fell back dead. The body ),.ss nostrums are nttemned to bo sold mi was at once taken to tho Mulberry Street ; the great ropututiou of this valuable uicdi Malion, when it was uieiituieil, by a paper cjU!. found in the pockut.as that of r nu l.usclie, a ge rmn u mason aged about 27, and known to several residents oftho neighborhood as an iusnuc inaa lately discharged from Ward's Island. IJcsides the two pistols there was a long hunting knife in a bowie sheath in his pocket. The insane freak that probably led to his suicide was a pas sion for a young woman whom he saw nt tlie Hroiiii'.e Street Lutheran Church. He followed her evi ry whore, and so dogged her foot.slepK thai on one occasion to rid his sister nf him the girls' brother beat him badly. Fni ok the Market War. Judge Pratt's decision sustaining the ac tion of the Hoard of Health is just and timely. The Board declared the operations of a Fertilizer Manufacturing Company a dangerous nuisance, and it decreed the de struction of the. filthy bothsat Pulton Mar ket, nnd the attempts to stay the applica tion of sanitary remedies by the issue of in junctions has resulted in a formal and pre cise definition of ihe powers vested iu the Hoard. These powers are declared to be disorctiimcry. Tlie Health Hoard may not only determine what is a nuisance, but may vocale and destroy it iu a summary way. It is uot within the province of tlie Court to interfere with the acts of the. Hoard, aud parties who consider themselves aggreived must apply to tho Law-making power for relier. It is a pleasant novelty to find paramount io New York. Kesi lt of a Hf.ivrteks Interview. Few things in this wot Id will kick up a bigger row than when Jones in conversa tion willi a newspaper "interviewer" speaks his mind fully as regards Brown. Brown, ordinarily comes back at Jones in print and then the fun gets lively. Hut it often happens that the party of the second part would have done well to nave ooiameu from rushius into nrint. a case in print is just now printing the moral to this kiud of common sense reuson-ug. sir. rwparci Homau's Is just now the talk of the town, but as every one nud his wife may uot know who the aforesaid party is aud why he should bo the talk of the town we rise to explain. Homans was formerly actuary ot the Mutual Kite insurance oi tins city Mid was discharged from that office in 1871 under circumstances which made him then the theme for a uine tray's gossip in the Life Insurance world, inasmuch as he was dis missed for "unfaithfuluess, incompetence, obstiuncv. imoractibilitv and insubordina tion" a string of powerful adjectives half of which, in tho war times would nave caused him to be shot. In this case he was lucky, he was only drummed out of tho service, it seems mat recently tuo President of the Mutual Life was put under tbe pump of that artless aud gentle crea ture known as a uewspapcr reporter and said reitorter interviewed the Presideut as to tbe facts conuected w ith Homan's dis missal from the service of tlie company with the result given above. Of eoutse the interviewer could no', keep so luscious au item to himself and ho blurted it out iu his paper. Heretofore out of consideration for Homan's the matter was kept rather quiet. but as soon as the matter took air tbe trouble commenced, iiom&u's '.'card" went the rounds of the metropolitan press aud the reply of the Mutual followed aud tho testimony adduced by the latter has sent llomaus limner tnau me irrauuic uiu loon will bo apt to go, and tie will stay longer than Prof. Wise will care to do, all of which proves that when Jones has been interviewed and has bad his say about Brown, and when it happens that his story corresponds with facts the best thing Hrown can-do is to silently stand iu MJCNTAT. iRMSSPONtsIBlLITY. To 'bca- othi accomplishments,. Miss Lizzie Lloyd Kind seems at ono time to have added thnt of kleptomania. While employed In n factory at Attlcboro, Mass., she was not nltogther guiltless of tho sud den disuppearanco of certain hats and shawls that did not belong to her. Lizzie had before this given many proofs 6f a "dis ordered mind" nnd when the hats and shawls were found in her possession, every body said that sure enough she must be crazy. Taking this higbtoned Massachu setts standard of "mutual irresponsibility," the diligcut reader of tho daily papers will bo drawn to reflect what a prodigious member of lunatics are probably at this very moment stowed away in our banks, railroad, aud trust companies.

In sections of the couutry where FEVER AND AGUE prevails, there is no remedy held in greater esteem. Persons traveling should keep it by them. A few drops, in water, will pre vent sickness or bowel troubles from change ot water. From foreign countries the calls for Pain Killer nre gieat.
