We are authorized to nnnounco Gen. HARRY WHITE, of Indiana County, as a enndidate for Congress in this District, subreot to tho action of tho Republican Convention of the district. ASSEMBLY.

We are authorized to nnnounco AMZA PURDY, of Green Township, as a candi date lor the nomination of Associate Judge, subject to Republican usages. COUNTY TREASURER. We aro authorized to announce N. S. FOREMAN, of Tionesta borough, as n candidate for the nomination of County Treasurer, subject to Republican usages. President Hayes says he would not take a second term if it was ten dered him on a silver platter. He evidently does not think it would be a legal tender. Each of the four weeks in Juno will witness the holding of a National Convention. The Republicans meet at Chicago on the 2d. the Greeuback ers on the 9th, the Prohibitionists at Cleveland on the 17th, and the Dem ocrats at Cincinnati on the 23d. Ex-Governor Cuktin' say3 he is now going to roll up his sleeves and go into the Presidential campaign with all his might. He propose! to show the Democracy that he is with them heart and soul. It is to be hoped the Democrats will again nom inate Mr. Curtin for Congress. The Republicans may need that district. Secretary Sonunz deflates himself more intensely auti-Grant now than he was in 1872. He adds that within forty-eight hours after the nomination of General Grant he (Schurz) will hand in his resignation as Secretary of the Interior, and take the field in favor of an an auti-Third Term Republican ticket. If Secretary Schurz's influ ence has tho same effect it did in '72 his efforts in favor of an anti-third term ticket will bo just the thing for th Republican party. The resolution adopted by the colored convention in this city, Wed nesday last, illustrated the political change of feeling among the people. A year ago a similar convention was held and a resolution passed, endors ing Grant as the Republican candidate for the Presidency of 1880. The dele gates last year were, with the excep tion often, the same men who passed tho Blaino resolution this year, and the latter was adopted with only five dissenting votes. Out of fifty dele gates this chaage of opinion is re markable as showing the public feel ing on the third term. Derrick. How. Edwaiu) McPiiEKSOs takes occasion to call the attention of Penn sylvania Republicans to the fact that in 18G8 Senator J. Donald Cameron bolted the instructions of the Pennsyl vania State convention. The instruct ions to the delegation we.'e to vote as m. uuit for ex-Governor Andrew G. Cur tin for Vice President. Mr. Cam eron Jid not fancy tho rmdicine and purcmptorily refused to take it. There sre uauy otl.cr precedents but none that Lave so forcible an application at the present time as the one noted. Frctty much every body has come to the conclusion that the unit rule has outlived tho day of its usefulness, STATE CAPITAL JOTTINGS. Harrisburo, Pa., May 22, '80. Like South America we have wet and dry sensoDS. Our streets are cither a foot deep with mud or, vice versa, the same depth with dust, which is mud with the water squeezed out. Just now we are having our dry "spell." Haven't had rain for a month, and from present appearances won't have any for another month. Resides being dry and dusty it is hot yes, hot's the word. To say warm would be "drawing it too mild." The heat is Laving tli6 effect of bringing on a mild species of lunacy, of which we had a tpecimcn on Monday eve ning, which was as follows: One of our fire companies took a trip down the Cumberland Valley to the town of Lebanon, which is but a few miles distant from here, and on their return in the evening, were met at the depot by our department, and paraded through the town accompanied by several bands of music, and their path illuminated with torches and the glare of fireworks. Did you ever hear of anything more absurd ? You might have thought from the reception given them that they had been abroad for a year, instead of which they had only beer, away about twelve hours and some 25 miles distant. Ce motulc est plcin tie fovs is an old French saying and seems to me to be a true one. Gardners are still engaged in beautifying the "hill." The fountains are being surroundtd with flowers, the shrubs and grass being trimmed and roses set out in profusion. Milton, the town above here that was burnt the other day is rising from its ashes. Philadelphia has already sent over $31,000 in cash besides boxes of clothing and groceries. Sen ator Cameron had a bill paseed in Congress on Wednesday appropriating $25,000 for the purpose of erecting a public building, which will assist the resideuts considerably in their present distress. As they are a very energetic people and are receiving considerable assistance I am sure their embarrass ment will only be temporary, and when they recover from it they will be better off than before. The Grant men aro jubilant over the capturing of Illinois, and now feel assured of his nomination. They may nominate him but they cannot make the people vote for . him, consequently he can't be elected. But Messrs. Cameron, Conkling and Logan want to be Cabinet officers, therefore Grant must be nominated and the party must run the risk of defeat because they are willing to run that risk to make their point. The people don't want Grant; its only those seekers after place that are cryiug fr him. Blaine is the popular erf, but I don t believe he can be elected, therefore they had better take Edmunds, as Washbnrno has withdrawn in favor of Grant. If Washburne is willing to see our ticket defeated he bhould not now, in the event of Grant's withdrawal, be allowed a place upon the ticket. My idea id that a good republican rhould be nominated, one who would sacri fice letling for the good of the party, not parfy for personal aggrandize ment. Warren. Our Washington Letter, Special to the Rkpuulicax. Washington, D. C, May 20, '80, All the appropriation bills but two are now in progress through the House or Senate, and all will be passed before the last of next week, so good judges say. Of course little else can be done, but if this can ho done the end is near, and the country will excuse Congress for doing very little if it will adjourn to early too do any mischief. i here are many who waut the bill to change and establish beyond dis pute the method of counting the elec toral vote to be acted upon this session so as to oe operative alter the next election, but it is hardly probable an agreement tan be arrived at. The Republicans have one plan, the correct one, and the Democrats another. Th Republicans wish, in disputed cases to let the State in dis- pute uecme ior itseir, wiucn return is the valid one. This is a truo States iiignts Dili, ana u consistency was a Democratic viitue it would support this measure. But the Democratic plan ii to put l lie whole matter of dis- putes into I he hands of tho Demo cratic majority for decision. There is no time for debate, and both plans may as well be abandoned fot the present. The great Ifanlan-Courtney race came off on the Potomac here yester day, and was witnessed by over one hundred thousand peopl. In reality it was no race. Ilanlan had things all his own way. In fact, Courtney did not pull over the whole course,' but turned around when half way down, pulled leisurely back to his boat house. He feigned sickness as the cause of his ignominious defeat, but the excuse is not received with favor, and has added greatly to his unenviable reputation of unreliabil ity. Courtney wns in plain words, frightened ; the confidence and pluck ofllnnlan unnerved him, and it is said that he was so nervous that he did not sleep a wink tho night before the race. Thousands of dollars changed hands, and those who bet on Courtney are loud in their denuncia tion of him. The delegation from Union Springs, N. Y., who backed Courtney, go home "broke," while the Hanlan Toronto delegation go home "flush." We may have another race here next week between Ilanlnn and Riley.
