Reporter —a radical •Re publican journal, regarded as opposed to Senator Cameron—last week came out with a lung and able article on the Presidency, in which it take* ground in favor of liis nomina tion by the Chicago Convention. The Reporter U published in the heart of the “Wilmat Dis trict.” “There i* no lack of men in the Republican party who would adorn the Presidential chair—• man who if npminated would command the re spect and support of every Republican. Such is Preston King, Hamilton, Trumbull, Fessenden, Wade, Collamer, Chase, and many others, who have given ample evidence of their ability and devotion to Republican principles. The Con vention can hardly make a mistake amongst the prominent men in our ranks. But a careful survey of the whole field—a •aim and unprejudiced weighing of all the con siderations which have been urged in regard to the nominee—bring us nearer home in our judgment as to the man emphatically and un questionably'pointed out ns the one to win the great fight of 1800, and at the same time to se cure to our principles all the advantages of vic tory. That man is Simon Cameron, who will go before the Chicago Convention, as the choice <>f the Keystone State. To the endorsement of Pennsylvania, may be added even weightier reasons which have brought him prominently before the public as the man upon whom the choice of the Chicago Convention should full. Wlrat Seward may lack in availability, and Gates in identity with the Republican organi zation, are nut wanting to him, while the prom inent points of recommendation in both, are k»IT ily combined in tbe name of Simon Came ron. To the radical Republicans (in which cat egory we class ourselves) be presents a record without a flaw. When the Wilmot proviso was offered, bo was a senator in Congress, and stead fastly supported that measure. Through the memorable struggle when tbe power of a Dem ecratic Administration was brought to bear, to seduce or drive men from the support of the cause of Freedom, Simon Cameron stood its unflinching advocate. While men with greater renown .than himself, were faltering and fall ing, be stood true amongst tbe gallant men who were unreduced by patronage, and unawed by power. A supporter of Fremont in 1856, he has, in bis Senatorial career, sustained with entire consistency, the cause of Freedom. Dn deviating in bis atachment to, and his support nf, the principles of the Republican p»rty, he is nevertheless not obnoxious to that con erva tire feeling which is an element of considerable strength in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. His position on the subject of protection to the great interests of Pennsylvanians, commands for him the respect and support of those who are look ing to Congress for some measure of relief for the prestut depression of our industrial pur suits. We will not say that we cannot carry Penn sylvania and New Jersey for the Chicago nomi nee whoever he may be. We hove the strongest j grounds to hope for such a favorable result.— But with Simon Cameron as our candidate, suc cess in these two States is not doubtful. The Republican counties would roll up for him their majorities by the thousands, and in the lower counties where the battle U to be lost or gained he would thoroughly demoralize the discipline of the Democratic party, and make such inroads into their ranks as no other man is capable of doing. No prominent politician has such hosts of warm friends amongst our opponents, as Si mon Cameron. Formerly a detnecraf, his de votion to friends, and his open-handed liberality has made him personal friends, who scorn the shackles of party when an opportunity occurs to repay the favors they have received at his hands. There is not a single element of the Opposition party in this State, which would not rally with enthusiasm to his support. An old fashioned Jackson majority would attest to the country, that although the ‘best abased' man in the nation, yet his sterling qualities, gener ous nature, and consistent career have gained him the confidence of our people.” Bbcoking Contagious.— Sswardism is running “like the cholera of '32/V and is as fearfully contagious.

Republicans of Connecticut have carried that State by a majority of 679 for Buckingham for Governor. They also elected a large majority in both branches of the Legis lature, thus securing the rejturn of a Republi can United-States Senator. I Large amounts of money were spent by the New York merchants and others who “bend the supple knee (to tbe slave-drivers) that thrift m*»y follow fawning/* but In vain. It seems the laboring men of Connecticut can not be bought.

The two lost factions joined the. Democracy in [electing Sprague, who called himself a UniJn-Demo* cratic-Conscrvative-American-Republican. One Vie« 7 of Corruption. As the investigating committee of Hon. John Covode in the House of Representatives are now unearthing some of the methods employed by Mr. James Buuliamyi to raise money to carry the Pennsylvania and other State elec tions in 1858, this gentleman becomes ns pious os Pecksniff himself, throws himself back on his dignity, shakes his Presidential fist in tho face of Congress, defies their power to investi gate bis acts and with virtuous indignation re marks in his late so-called “protest:” "Amid all the political storms through which I have passed, the present is the first attempt which baa ever been made, to my knowledge, to assail my personal or official integrity, and this has been done as tbe time is approaching when I shall voluntarily retire from tbe service of my country. I feel proudly conscious that there is no public act of my life which will nut bear the strictest scrutiny. I defy all investigation. Nothing but tbe basest perjury cun sully my good name. Ido not fear even this, because I cherish an humble confidence that the Gracious Being who has hitherto defended and protected me ttgaiiift tho shafts of falsehood and malice wilt not desert me now when I have become ‘old and gray-headed/ I can declare before God and my country that no human-being, with an exception scarcely worthy of notice, has, at any period of my life, dared to approach me with a cor rupt or dishonorable proposition,” 1 Now tbit? would be all very nice indeed, but for peveral little facts which have .become a part nf tbe history of the times.

With much respect, “The President. VT. C. PATTEKSON.” • This letter, instead of returning it with a proper rebuke, or putting it in the fire, Mr. Bu chanan inclosed to hia Secretary of the Navy, with the following indorsement: “The inclosed letter from Col. Patterson of Phila delpfaiiO's submitted to the attention of the Secretary of the savy. J. B." A ‘ Napoleonic Decree.” At a time when the infamous Lecompton Constitution by which Mr. Buchanan and the Democratic party sought to force the curse of shivery upon an unwilling people had almost become a forgotten thing of the past; at a time when the people of all panics dis posed to throw thp mantle of charity over all hts political acts in view of bis approaching re tirement, Mr. Buchanan fusts himself as a man, and not in his capsicity as President upon the attention of the American people and in vites the most rigid scrutiny into his character and life. Never in the history of this country, seldom in the history of any olhey country in the world, has such a' remarkable document emanated from the ruling power as that which this imbecile old man sent into the House of Representatives last Thursday. In that House it excited only surprise and contempt. Soon after the. organization, Mr, Covnde, a member from our State, in view of the allusion by Mr. Buchanan in his letter to the people of Pittsburg to the use of money in carrying elec tions in Pennsylvania which he pretended to deprecate; in view of the declarations of John Hickman, John B. Haskin and others that their official integrity had been tried by offers of bribes during the Lecompton struggle in 1858; and in view of the charges of corruption in the navy yards and elsewhere, —offered a series of resolutions in the House asking fur a commit tee to inquire whether these charges against the President and his officials were true or false. A select committee of five members embracing men of all political views have bden sitting for tome time and have elicited the most damning proofs of political and official corruption in the present executive and those in power under him. At such a time Mr. Buchanan chooses to play emperor, throws himself back on his dignity and protests against the power of the House of Representatives to inquire into his acts as President and declafes-that he in bis single person is io all respects the equal of the whole House put together and that he is as independent of them as they are of him.—- , Strangely enough his imperial highness con, cedes to the Bouse the constitutional power of TH E TIOGA CO UN ft' AOf TATOII. impeachment, but denies their right to inquire by Committee or otherwise whether the charges upon which alone he Oould bb impeached are : true or false. Mr. Sherman niftde this point •'-plain, and inquired if~the President wanted to _be impeached jjpqn amere rumor. Pur a thou sand years the people of England IxUeved that “the King could do no wrong/' but the dis covery that this was afallacy brought the head of Charles to the block. la the same doctrine Itor & Proprietor, to be foisted upon the American people ? Be cause a man is by a majority of the people ele vated to the power and dignity of the Presi dency, can he use that power to advance his own private ends and tie the hands and stifle the voice of the people without rebuke? Mr. Buchanan seems to think so, and the fact that he should stoop from his high official dignity to notice vague rumors against his official charac ter which he avers have no foundation in truth, Will convince thousands who would not other wise have believed that there must be some truth in these charges, else he would not have been so sensitive. Mr. Buchanan's special message about his private personal character will take its place in history ns one of the strangest documents of any Age or country, and the question whether the power of the Rep resentatives of the people in Congress equals the power of the President will pass into the coming campaign and bo decided by the people themselves. The Pennsylvania Legislature adjourned oh the 3d instant, and closed a very important ses sion to the people «f the Stale. There was as a matter of course a great deal of useless and unnecessary legislation, and by this we mean such legislation as is made unnecessary in some other States by the existence of general laws placing the power in the courts to do that Which engrosses the attention and takes up two-thirds of the time of our legislature. We need reform in this respect, but wo shall never get it until the press in all parts of the State shall agitate it and ask for it without distinction of part}*. To the perseverance ami ability of Mr. Wil listox our burned.ate representative, umre than to any other man do the people owe their grati tude for the establishment of a paper currency, which, as will be seen, secure* the bill-holder against (he knavery of corrupt corporations and banking swindlers of every kind. We re fer to the passage of the Free Banking Law, a measure to which Mr. Williston tjaa given his attention f r four years. The following is a synopsis of the law : A certificate stating the particulars tin to the bank to be established must be drawn up, ap proved by the Attorney General, published in the newspapers, recorded in the courts, and a copy deposited and recorded in the Auditor- General’s office. The Auditor-General has the notes engraved and printed. Every note mustbe signed by him or by his clerk, numbered and registered, and have stamped on it, “aecurad by the deposits af public stocks.” ** The>stocks deposited must be either this state or of the United States, and the amount of notes issued to the bank by the Auditor- General to be equal to the market value of the sto-’k, less five per cent., provided that this is never to exceed ninety-five* per cent, of the stock. Twenty per cent, in specie must he paid irt before the bank can begin business, and it must always keep in its vaults, in specie, twenty per cent, of the amount of notes issued, ns a secu rity additional to the stock in the bands of the Auditor-General. The capital stock cannot be less than fifty thousand nor more than one million of dollars. No note less than five dollars to bo issued. As soon as a bank stops the payment of spe cie, the Auditor-General appoints three citizen* to make inquiry, and if they report the bank is suspended, he is to appoint a receiver, who is to turn all the assets into money and pay. “Sept, Ij) 1553. 1. The noteholders. 2. The depositors, 3. The other debts. 4. Distribute the remainder among the stock holders pro ratu. ■ The condition of each bank must he published monthly in the newspapers, and on each semi annual dividend day a statement is to be made, on the oath of the President and Cashier, which ih to ho sent to the Auditor-General and pub lished, setting forth minutely the condition of the bank. Existing banks may come under this hill. Defalcation is to be punished by imprison ment in the penitentiary for from one to ten yearn. A tax is paid on dividends to the state bf from eight to thirty per cent. This law has been signed by the Governor as it met his hearty approval. It is similar in its provisions to the banking laws long ago enacted by the States north and east of us. Thus one by one our proud old State is breaking off the shackles by which the Shorn-Democracy had hound her hand and foot. One by one the sour ces of political and financial corruption which made Pennsylvania Legislation a stench in the nostrils of men are being gradually eradicated. The Bill for the relief of the Sunbury and Erie Rail Road has also become a law. Of tbo importance of this bill apduf the great project it embraces, we intend to apeak on a future oc casion.

The Froo Bonking* Lot?. Reminiscences of the New York Herald. We find in the Herald , published at Grand Traverse, Michigan, the following reminiscences of «£rly times in New York. They are by the editor, Morgan Safes, Esq., arc of his own knowledge and of course interesting: How Bennett Started the Ketc York Herald.— Ab James Gordon Bennett la the confidential counsellor and adviser of the President of the United States, and bis is the accredited organ of the*Administration in the city of New Turk, it may not be uninteresting Jo our readers to know how and under what oircumstancies a pa per was started whidh has attained so grbnt no toriety and wields such a powerful influence over a certain class of the whole community. Wo are cognizant of some facts connected with its early history* which came under our immediate observation At the time, and which are probably knotfn o'rity to Horace Greeley, Gordon Bennett, and We violate no confidence in placing thefh on refeord as matter of history, and as tending to illustrate the fact chat that which is conceived in sin and broUgbt firth in iniquity will grow and flourish only in a congenial atmosphere of pollution arid infa my. In 1834, just after Horace Greeley A Co. bad started the New Yorker, in the old yellow two story building which then stood on the south west corner of Nassau and Liberty streets, there stalked into the office one day a lank, hard-vis aged, squint-eyed, villainous-looking man, who appeared as if he had just escaped from or was about to be sent to the penitentiary, and intro duced himself laMr. Greeley as Janies Gordon Bennett, bite editor of a Philadelphia paper (the Pennsylvanian, we think, though we may be mistaken in the name.) lie stated that he had called to hold u consultation with Mr. Gree ley relative to the expediency of starling a cheap daily in New York. A** Mr. G. was busily engiigod*at the time, Mr. B. did not fully unfold his plans, but promised to call again.— The next day he spread out his programme. The main feature of which was a paper de voted to scandal in “high life/* but to be con ducted with such consumate ability and tact that it would “take” with all classes. lie said he had one thousand dollars to invest in the en terprise, hut as that sum was not sufficient to insure success ho- wished a partner who could furnish a like amount, and risked Mr. Greeley to join him, Greeley listened patiently to all his plans, and then, in his blunt, off hand way, told him that such a paper might pay if a man c«mld be found to conduct it who combined the requisite talent and meanness—and flatly re fused to have anything to do with it. And this is the reason why Bennett has hated Greeley ever since. At this time there wfls a printer in Ann street named Anderson, who was a genera) jobber and newspaper printer, but who did not publish on his own account! Bennett procured an in troduction to him, and by fair promises and false pretences induced him to enter into the scheme—and the New York Herald was ushered into being. * * soon found that Bennett had de ceived him \vhh-~cegard to funds—not one penny of the thousand dollars ever having been paid over—and that he would have to hear the whole pecuniary burden until the paper should work its way up to a self sustaining point. He ex pended a large sum of money to keep it alive, until, just as it began to be remunerative, the great fire of ’34 occured in Ann street, which made such terrible bavac among the printers and Anderson lost presses, type, and everything, with little or no insurance. His friends, who had faith in the ultimate soccer of the Herald, aided him to procure a power press and' other materials; but Bennett, meantime, made elan destine arrangements with another printer, and the Herald appeared the nest .morning with James Gorden Bennett as editor and proprietor. He refused to recognize Anderson at all/ or to pay him a penny for his interests in the paper, or for the large sums which he had advanced to sustain it. Anderson took the matter so deeply to heart that he died in a short time, and there it ended. About this-time Ellon Jewett, a beautiful and celebrated courtesan, was murdered at the house of Rosina Townsend, in Thomas street, by a young man named. Robinson, who was a clerk for lloxie, and through whose in fluence he was acquitted. The murder was a devil-send for Bennett—(be never had a God send.) He procured, or pretended lie had, a list of the names of all those who lodged at Mrs. Townsend’s house that night, some seventy men, most of whom were married, and occu pied high positions in society—and threatened to expose them in the columns of tils paper.— This ruse brought to his coffers an untold amount of black-mail; and before the affair was ended, he bad made money enough to buy a printing office and set up business on'his own account. It is not our purpose to follow him any further in his course of infamy, our object being only to show how the New York Herald was started. Pecuniary he has met with unbounded success —the success of infamy and crime. But’he has not reached his present position without stripes. We have had the pleasure of seeing him twice cowhided on the public street, kicked down three flights of stairs by his journeymen printer, and cuffed and spit upon by the late Thomas Hamblin—all of which he aubmited to with the abject humility of a coward. Such is a faint outline of James Gordon Ben nett, the editor of the Now York Herald, and bosom friend of the President of the United States. Ty a Tiaar Peace.— A well-digger at Du buque, named Norton, was about t<> tiro a fuze, whan his candln upset and set the train on fire. He rushed tri the bucket and signaled to “haul up.”—The man at the windlass made superhu man efforts, and had hauled Mr. N., within some ten feet of the mouth when the handle of the windlass broke! Fortunately Mr. Norton, bought a foothold on the projecting shelf, and thereby saved himself from falling to the but tom. But bis position was any thing but desi rable, and he was in one way,protected from the explosion, while it was only by almost super human efforts that ha kept himself from falling from the narrow Btahding place. There was no way to get out, and he was sure to bo riddled by the shower of rocks that would rise from below. Thus he stood momentarily expecting that a terrible death would ensue, stood thus in an agony which cannot be imagined. How long the time was ho did not know ; but it seemed ages rather than seconds, until a suffi cient time had elapsed to induce the hope that the blast would not explode. This proved evetu nlly to be the case, although he suffered a dozen deaths before the fact became apparent. A Douglas paper tells ns the Little Giant is a “fixed fiict." Well, so are jackasses, on the score that “facts ars stubborn things." [From the Harrisburg Telegraph.} Corruption Unmasked. The, ilicefr of official corruption has been probed pretty thoroughly by the Congressional Committee on Public expenditures, under the skilful lead of Hon. itohn S Hnskin. The re i port was laid before the House on. Monday af j ternoon, and forms a revelation of venality in 1 high places, Such a« the secret history of the worst despotism in existence could hardly paral lel. Ac most we can only give a brief outline of this gigantic, and ; too successful Scheme to plunder the National Treasury, for the purpose 1 of controling thf elections, local and general, throughout the North, for the benefit of the , disunion Democracy.; | We gather from the Report,-which is very voluminous, that Mr. George Washington Bow man. Senate Printer, and editor of Mr. Bu chanan’s private organ, the Constitution* ac tually receives sortie forty thousand dollars per annum for doing nothing; and from the testi mony of Mr, Wendell, wd learn, that during the lasi 'six year p of Democratic hile alone, more than seven hundred thousand dollars of the public money has been squandered upon prin ting, ostensibly, but ■ for the support of such newspapers as the Pennsylvanian and Constitu* Hon, and for the control of elections in Penn sylvania and elsewhere, really; of which fact there is the amplest evidence. Mr. Wendell testifies that while Mr. Stead man was elected printer to the House during the 35th Congress, that gentleman never dis charged the duties of that office; but that he, Wendell, was de facto printer—paying Stead man the surfi of 64cents on the dollar fordoing the work, and retaining 36 percent. Mr. Wen dell supported the; Washington Union , the President’s organ at the cost of $19,000 per year, over and above its receipts ; and inXB5B, contributed money to carry elections in several districts in Pennsylvania—among which were the districts »f Mr. J. Olancy Jones, and Mr. Tom Florence. And the disposition of the plunder was made iii accordance with a tacit understanding between Mr. Wendell and iht* President, the latterj having this huge “take” of patronage to bestow. Mr. Wendell testifies further, that ho proposed to Mr. Buchanan to take away the stipends paid to the Pennsylva nian and Argus of Philadelphia, and apply the sums to the elections in Pennsylvania—in the districts where Jones, Lundy, ami Florence were candidates for to Congress, to which proposition Mr. Buchanan did not dis sent, and the money 1 was so applied. This was in 1858—some two months prior to the writing of the celebrated Da Quesne letter by the Pres ident. Mr. Wendell testifies further, that the Exec utive Printing ranges from §75,000 to §lOO,OOO annually, ami that of this patronage not less than JiJi y per cent's as now dispensed by the President, is clear profit; and further, that he had an understanding with both Mr. Pierce and Mr. Bucbarmn, that out of these profits, the Constitution or Union organ was to be suppor ted. Sometime la’st’Marfdi, Wendell f.mnd that he could not support the Constitution, Pe?m >i/lvaniint, and Argus, out of the profits, and live; and therefore' he proposed to pay these three papers §20,000 per year, in consideration of being continued in office as Public printer. In pursuance of this arrangement he paid Oeo. Washington Bowman $5OOO to take the Gov ernment organ off his hands. It further appears from the testimony of slr. Wendell, that the President himself is the su preme power in his private organ; itot that lie writes the article*, but that he fernishes edi tors wire' write orider his supervision. And this fully accounts fur the inexpressible meanness of that organ, even in contrast with others of like stripe. But the testimony of Gen. Bowman before the Committee disclosed one or two rather sus picious circumstances, Mr. Bowman is sup posed to be the Senate printer. .Bat he testi fies, after touch wriggling and dodging, that he never had done the work himself, but‘had con tracted with Mr. Hives, to do the work for the sum of Gfij cents on the dollar—Mr. Hives fur nishing ai) the type, presses, labor and paper and paying Bowman 33| on the dollar for the privilege of doing the work.- And after being thoroughly cornered by the Committee, Bow man Was cojisrrainbd to admit that he had not a dollar invested in the public printing. JThe fact, then, seems to he, that Gen. Bowman, editor of the President’s organ, receives upward of soo,ooo* per year, for doing nothing at all; out of which - stipend ho supports the vantan and Argus of Philadelphia, together with sundry donations to certain doubtful districts in Pennsylvania, just before the general elec tions. Defining his Position.—The editor of The Rinyohf (Go.) Express thus pithily sets forth his views and relations with regard to the Charleston Convention : If Stephens, Cobh. Hunter, Who, or any prominent man, whoso record has identified him with the interests of the South, should ho chosen as the standard bearers of Democracy, we expect to support him with all the zeal of a “scaly-hark" Democrat. If Douglas should he the nominee, with no matter how good a platform, we cannot, and will not support him, under any sec of circumstances. Douglas will go into the Convention with more votes than any ‘other man, and enough to prevent the nomination of any other man. If these friends are firm and true, it will there fore be Douglas nr nobody. His opponents, however, will he strong enough, at first to pre vent his nomination. And we hope they may continue so. but we greatly fear (hoy will not. If they hold nut, a compromise may be effeted, by which some man never before heard of out side of the county of his residence, will be brought forth and a hundred thousand wool hats will be waived aloft, and a hundred thousands “Dimmicrats” will make the welkin ring with their huzzas, while from Main to California the hills send back the echo, “Hooray for Dalin and McFugan.” If that ia the game, wo are not in.
