The following is the platfonu aiopUsl by the onvention : First, That they reaihrm iheir ikxlaraiion of Jssii in favor of submitting to a vote of the siple tlie prohibitory constitutional amendment. We also indorse the action of the last Legislature in the suhuiissiou of an amen.hiieut tuaking sufh-ige free by alwlish- ing the tax qualification for a voter. S-con.l, We favor a Tariff for the sake' of nurturing American maitnfacturii until the induct rh anil resources of this nmntry fur nish its Nijit rth every item of consump tion they "an natunilly prodixv, and for tlie Mirsise of protecting home luls.r against foreign labor, as well as its products. It is likewise a part of that Protective policy of which Pennsylvania ha been tlie si rent to protect American workmen from the evil and unjust competition of inijurted contract aud paticr lalsir, and we demand the passage of more vigorous Xatiouul lawj for the security of immigration and the return of tlie unfit and the unworthy. In this connection we declare our abhorretice of Anarchistic idea and propositions destructive of the right of pniperty aud our system of society and gov ernment. Their resultant violation of the law should be visited with prompt and ex treme -ualties. Third, We favor the creation of an Amer ican marine by the provisions of bounties iijioh exports and discriminating duties up on imports in American bottoms. Fourth, The soldiers of the I'liion are wor thy of tlie lasting gratitude and continued favor of a restored (toveniment :and the ur plus in the treasury cnimol be better distrib uted than in the enlargement of the general pension list so a to iucjude all houorably discharged soldier of the I'liion army wlio may be in absolute need of public aid. Fifth, We a .prove iheactiou of the Leg islature touching the revenues of tlie Com monwealth in diverting a large portiou of the direct State tax and the receipt from li censes to Hie treasuries of the different cities and counties, and especially endorse that part of the tieneral Revenue bill which con tinued to impose the support of the State Government upon the corporations of the Commonwealth and brought within tlie pur-' view of taxation a large amount of money at interest in tlie bands of oorjstrationi not previously reached. We believe a new bill perfecting these features slwuld lie matured by the commission charged with that duty with a view of having it submitted to tlie present Legislature for enactment in time to nieet the assessment next year; provided the tiovenior alia) 1 deem the calling of an extra session for this purpose such an extra ordinary occasion as is contemplated by (lie twelfth section of the irth article of the Constitution.

The .asseugers and crew of the City of Montreal were taken off the York City by the tug Mount Etna and landed at Queenstown. All were accounted for except the thirteen persons in the missing boat. It is learned tliat shortly after the passengers had gone to bed on the night of the lOth inst., the ship being in latitude 43 north at the. time, they were aroused by an alarm of fire. A scene of consternation ensued and the passengers were greatly terrified when they found out the true state of affairs. The smoke caused hy the fire was suffocating. The passengers dressed and got on deck as quickly as possible, and with but little ap jiearance of auic. The fire originated in the cotton stored in tlie main hold. Sine streams of water were soon working on the flames, and the course of the Tessel was sliajied towanl Newfound land, 4U0 mile distant. The flames spread with great rapidity, aud soon hail burst oat with terrific force thnxigh the mizzen and ufter hatches, the heat being intense. It was becoming evident that it was impos sible to save the ship, a momentary panic en sued, when the captain decided to abandon the vessel, hut all managed to embark iu the boat, all of which, but one, containing six of the cr.iw and seven passengers, were picked up by the York City. 1KS aUTIOS OF THE STE.VMEIt. The steamer Montreal was what is called an "old tinier," having heeti buiit about eighteen years ago. Few of the modern im provements in steamship building bail leen applied to her, yet she was one of the most profitable freight stcamshiHafiout. She was rai.il-as a freight steamship, and carried only intermediate and steerage Htssengers. Her dimensions were 400 feet long. 4ti feet beam, and t.ooo urns burthen. Terrorized by " White Caps." IxniANAroi.is, August 18. Tlie White Cups, or Regulators, have so greatly terroriz ed sple living iu the Southwestern part of Ihe state that those who are unable to leave the connlry are appealing to the Governor for protection. The White Caps were organ ized ostensibly for the purpose of punishing violators of the law. but they have degener ated into a band of plaudcrsrs and maraud ers. A gentleman came from tlie afflicted district to day to beg the tiovenior to take some stcjis toward breaking up the band. He says that citizens dare not express them selves regarding the work of the organiza tion and that his life would be in danger if the White Caps knew that he had maile com plaint anainst them. While leaving Orange county he met a farmer who had been prom inent in the county, who was hurrying away fmm tlie infested district with his fam ily and al! his (sinahlc possessions because the White Caw had maile one assault uyon him and were threatening to visit him again. He was comilled to leave his farm for sale at much less than its value. The premises hail lieen plundered by the outlaw's. The county olfiivrs are afraid to prosecute the outlaws, and witnesses will not testify against them because they are afraid to do so. Recently a reeiable farmer was taken out and Iwuteu unmercifully. His daughter ran from the house with a knife and began cut ting loose the horses of the band. She cut a gash in one of the animals aud the next day the wounded horse was traced to the stable .n one of the most prominent citizens in the county. A Family sold Into Slavery.

Sch.H'ltze sailed from Carlsbad for tin-I'nited Slates. and their ship touched a Yucatan port, where Schoeltze and his fam ily together with other emigrants were sold into slavery. Tliey remained iu the interior of the country eighteen mouths and then ex'aped to Camiicachy, only to he again taken into rustody and subjected to the most inhuman treatment. They were compelled lo work in the broiling sun without covering to their lslics ; hU wife was driven into the field to work three days after the birth of a child; tiirfy were provided with but two . unds of cornnical a day, and this contin ued nearly two years and a half. Then the wife fell ill and was ct)t to the hospital. The hu.-bund was allowed to tiisit her occasionally, and while making one of these visits he fell in with a (ierman sailor, who agreed to carry the family to Logan, whence thev were sent to the I'nited Stales by the ticrman consul. Schoeltze and his wife show tiu their persons the effects of the inhuman treatment. Down ontheHigh License Law. Hakkishi ko, Aug. IS. The Prohibition ists of Dauphin county held a convention here to-day and nominated a full county ticket and selected sixteen delegates for the State Convention, which will meet ill tilts city next Wednesday. The ticket is as fol lows : Sheriff, W. J. Adams : Commissioners Solomon Hummel, J. W. Story; Poor Direc tor. John 11. Sheesly ; Auditors, A. Y. Kris ely, T. i. Sweitzer. In the platform it is declared "that the purpose of the high license act is to defeat the amendment to the Consti tution prohibiting the sale and manufacture of Honors, and that it is the most dangerous compromise suggested.

Tlie shifter, whose runaway his not yet len explain. si, it is witiveiy asserted "moved at the usual signal of the hand, preparatory to moving a lineofr.tr standing on another -track.' Thi was just a!Mit half-st 10 o'cl.a'k and Thomson's en gine was close by the signal tower near Sev enteenth street. Charles Biakemore. the firemen, was ilishiiig tlie headlight. Suddenly there was a nnuiite of wheel on the track behind ilhi, when; r.i .in-.n was leaning lazily out of his cab window smok ing his pis-'. riicn came a crash. The ten der tilted high on its forward trucks. Out of tlie window Thomson went head foremost and Blakcmore was thrown violently to the ground and knocked partly unconscious. There was a creak of machinery and a hiss of escapingstcam as the fireman gathered him self together. On oneof the in-bound tracks also came a train dashing along and Blake, more saw his engineer lying partly across this track mangled and bleeding aud a mo ment later knew that the fast train bad run oyer his already wounded partner. Then he looked for the engine and saw it dashing away over the "T"' towanls the river, for the concussion had thrown open the throttle full wide, aud that meant nearly sixty miles an hour, a nmaway engine over a line where dozens of engines and hundreds of car and men were working at the time. On went 3!W flying up the tnick ni.til it reached the crossing of Philadelphia. Wil mington and Baltimore, at Thirtieth street. Kngine Xo. Ill"' which nms to West Ches ter, was standing there. Now came another terrific smash, another black figure dying through the night air, for engineer Kelley had jumped for his life when he saw the runaway engine close, behind his ten der. Open went another throttle now up the track sped two engines toward the high grade, near which is an open switch. It was a close ra.ie lief w.-en the mighty en gines, uiid.'K'.'! was aclose second all the way through. At the switch there is a side track probably 100 feet long. On to this they dash ed. Then came a plungv over an embank ment and 1100 lay shrieking on her siile to meet the dying embraces of iKO, that jum ped to death a uw.nu-ut later. Now came a roar uf escaping steaa and the throb of the pistons in the cylinders that seemed unwilling to stop. A great crowd collected and later tlie wrecKers were at work trying to pull the dismantled engine out of the ditch. Undoubtedly the switch saved many lives, for had the switch been closed the flying engines would have collided with trains due on the main track. The trainmen' on the "L" went to Bhike tnore's assistance, he was taken to the Pres bvterian Hosi.ilaL w here his injuries were pronouiMvl serious though not iwrwirily fatal.
