A Prediction Fulfilled.— -In the Illinois contest of 1856, Mr. Douglas had much to sa; about the see tionality of the Republican party. In reply to one of these tirades, Hon. Abraham Lincoln used the following terms; “I ask his attention, also to the fact that by the rule of nationality he is himself fast be coming sectional. I ask his attention to the fact that his speeches would not-go as current ■now South of the Ohio river as . they have for merly gone there. I ask his attention to the f ict that he felicitates himself to-day that all the Democrats of the Free States are agreeing with him. If he has not thought of this I commend to bis consideration the evidence of his own declaration on this day, of his becom ing sectional too. I see it rapidly approaching. Whatever may be the result of' this ephemeral contest between Judge Douglas and myself, I see the day rapidly approaching when his pill of sectionalism, which he has been thrusting down the throats of Republicans for years past, will be crowded down his own throat.” The Census Takers will enter upon the dis charge of their duties on the first of the coming month. They will visit every house and family within their limits, and will have innumerable questions to ask. These will in part cover the numbers, names, ages and sexes uf every family, as well as the products of every farm; the number of acres under cultivation, and the number of horses, cattle, sheep and hogs upon it. These questions should be nnajverbd promptly, and as nearly as possible correctly, and in order to do so it would be advisable for every head of a family to write down the ans wers in advance. Farmers especially should in their leisure moments prepare accurate state ments of the number of acres of land they may have under cultivation, the number of bushels of different kinds oIT grain, the quantity of hay, fruit, &c., they produced last lyear, together with the number of horses, cattle and stock they feed. This would greatly facilitate the labors of the Census-taker, and also render the infor mation Government is seeking more valuable and reliable. Seqcei, to a Tragedy.— Our readers will generally remember the Mercer and lleberlon tragedy that occurred in Philadelphia many years since. . A man of some wealth and social position named Heberton had seduced Miss Mercer, a yonng woman of seventeen, and re fused to repair the matter by marriage. A trotber took vengeance in- to his own hands, aylnid the seducer in a ferry-boat, and shot him dead. For this he was tried for murder and acquitted. Since that period ho led a wild career, and finally about two years since, was shot in a restaurant in Philadelphia. The sister was married a few years subsequent to the death of Heberton, lived unhappily with her husband, was drowned and we find her death recorded in an exchange. The whole family have now passed away. A young man who is serving out a term in the Michigan State Prison, has written a long letter to his friends, dwelling upon the causes which led him into crime, and summing up the conditions of “ tip-top life,” as understood by rapid young gentlemen. He says:—“ You may not comprehend this term, but let me ex plain. By liveing a tip-top life, is meant first to be idle ; second, to drink whiskey, or any thing else, (and of course get drunk; ) third, to frequent all places of coarse fun, such as cock fights, boxing matches, negro-shows, &c.; fourth to keep a concubine or two ; and fifth, to steal all they can lay their hands upon. This, then, is living a tip-top life. Thus have I fallen, and thus will thousands of young men fall." Complimentary—Vert! —The New York New*, Democratic organ, thus speaks of the •‘Little Giant “Douglas is, beyond all question, the most dangerous man ia this Republic, more so than Seward, a thousand times, because he has ele ments of popularity with the vulgar herd which Seward does not possess. When a man is in troduced to Seward, for example, ho will blend his dignity with Ms suavity, and affect the Sen atorial gravity! But, introduce a man to • Douglas, and he feels thirsty at once, and pro poses a drink! We are not more surprised than the Administration men are to find thqt Sir. Buchanan has been made the instrument, unwittingly, of placing Douglas in a position to peril the interests of the Democratic party:” The Split at Charleston. —The split in the Democratic party at Charleston is an event of very marked importance. It makes a step in the history of the country decidedly in advance of any taken hitherto, and from which there is not likely to beany retreat hereafter. It shows conclusively that the political power of the Confederacy must pass to the North—that the • numerical majority, the preponderant wealth and population of the Union—is about to assert its rightful authority over t(ie political institu tions of the country also. Fora long time pas( wo have had a United Soutn—we are about to have a United North also. Stand tour Ground. —When you meet three astonishingly full dressed ladies on an ordinary side-walk, young man, don’t get into the middle of the street to let them pass all abreast and in full swing. Stick to your position, at all haz ards. It may make them pout a little -or look deliciously sour if one of them has to fall hack in passing; but you mustn’t yield your “right of way ’’one single inch. Are not your polished hoots as tidy as the bottoms of their trailing dresses? Why, then, step into the gutter from a false sentiment of gallantry for which you’ll get no thanks? Remedy foe the bite of a jiah dog. — A Sax on forester, named Gastell, now of the venera ble age of eighty-two, unwilling tg take to the grave with him a secret of so much importance, he has made public in the Leipsic Journal, the means he has used for fifty years, and where with he affirms he has rescued many human beings and cattle from the fearful death of hy drophobia. Take immediately warm vinegar or tepid water, wash the wound clean therewith and then drj it; then pour upon the wound la few drops of hydochloric acid, because mineral acids destroy the poison of the saliva. Here is a queer, yet startling calculation, made by Judge Capron, of New York. In New York City there ore 15,000 dram shops, 300,- 000 drinkers, each drinking two gills of liquor, Toeing 600,000 gills, or 805 barrels per day— -300,000 barrels per year. This would fill a reservoir 900 feet long, 50 feetfwide, and 63 feet deep, and could float four large ships in fall sail- At $3O per barrel, it amounts to $3,000,- 000. Out of the 6000 persons tried before the Court of Special Sessions, during the last year, not more than 94 were sober whew arrested,— Paupers in the city cost $3,000,000 a year. THE AGITATOR. HtiGH YOUNG, EDITOR i PROPRIETOR. WELLSBOROtiQH, PA., THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 24, 1860. KEP BBUCAN NATIONAL NOMINATIONS. For president, ABEAHAM LINCOLN OF ILLINOIS. FOR TICK-PRESIDENT, HANNIBAL HAMLIN) OF MAINE. REPUBLICAN STATB NOMINATION. FOR GOVERNOR, ANDREW G-. CURTIN) OF CENTRE COUNTY. THE NOMINEES, We have nailed the colors to our mast-head which are to carry us safely through the coming “irrepressible conflict.” With Abraham Lin coln of Illinois, and Hannibal Hamlin of Maine, for our standard-bearers, we may write upon our banners that “Victory is certain.” “Honest Abe,” was, ou Friday last, nominated for President of the United States, by the Chi cago Convention—receiving on third ballot three hundred and fifty-four votes. Mr. Ham lin, a few hours later, wds nominated for Vice- President. Great excitement prevailed in the Convention when the nomination Was - an nounced, and the enthusiasm manifested every where is most intense. Guns were fired and speeches, wore made in the principal cities, rati fying the nominations. Abraham Lincoln' was horn in Hardin County, Kentucky, February 12, 1809, and is now 51 years old. Ha is very probably of the race of the Massachusetts Lincolns, says the Tribune, though his parents were of Quaker stock, that migrated from Pennsylvania to Vir ginia, whence his~- grandfather removed in 1(81-2 to Kentucky, and was there surprised and killed by Indians while at work on his •clearing. Like most pioneers, he left his family poor; and his son also died prematurely, lea ving a widow end several children, including Abraham, then six years old. The family re moved soon after to Southern Indiana, where Abraham grew to the stature of six feet and some indies, but enjoyed scarcely better oppor tunities for instruction than in Kentucky. Prob ably six months in all of the rudest sort of schooling comprehended the whole of his tech nical education. He was in turn a farm 'aborer, a common Workman in a sawmill, and a boat man on the Wabash and Mississippi rivers.— Thus hard work and plenty of it, the rugged experiences of aspiring poverty, the wild sports and rude games of a newly and thinly peopled forest region—the education born of the log cabin, the rifle, the nx, and the plow, combined with the reflections of an original and vigorous mind, eager in the pursuit of knowledge by every available means, and developing a char acter of equal resource and firmness—made him the man hs has since proved himself. At 21, he pushed further West into Illinois, which has for the last thirty years been his home, living always near and fur some years past in Springfield, the State Capital. He ' worked on a farm as hired man his first year in Illinois; the next year he was a clerk in a store; then volunteered for the Black Hawk war, and wns chosen a captain by hia compa | ny ; the next year he was an unsuccessful can | didate for the Legislature ; bo was chosen the | next, and served four sessions with eminent i usefulness and steadily increasing reputation ; studied law, meantime, and look his place at the bar; was early recognized ns a mest effective and convincing advocate before the People of Whig principles and the Protective policy, and j of their illustrious embodiment, Henry Clay; was a Whig candidate for Elector in nearly or quite every Presidential contest from 1835 to 1852 inclusive; was chosen to the XXXth Congress from the Central (District of Illinois in 1840, and served to its close, hut was not a candidate for re-election ; and in 1843 measura bly withdrew from politics and devoted himself to the practice of his profession until the Ne braska Iniquity of 1854 called him again into the political arena. He was the candidate of the Whigs for U. S. Senator before the Legis l future chosen that year; but they were not a | majority of the body : so he declined and urged . hia friends to support Judge Trumbull, the candidate of the anti-Nebraska Democrats, who ! was thus elected. In the gallant and memorable Presidential contest of 18oG, Mr. Lincoln’s name headed the Fremont Electoral Ticket of Illinois. In 1858, be was unanimously designated by the Republican State Convention to succeed Mr. Douglas in the Senate, and thereupon canvassed the State against Mr. D. with an ability in which logic, art, eloquence, and thorough good nature were alike conspicuous, and which gave him a national reputation. Mr. Douglas secured a predominance in tho Legislature and was elected, though Mr. Lincoln had the larger popular role, so that if the question had been decided by the majority of the people, the champion of Squatter Sovereignty and of in difference as regards Slavery extension would not now be a Senator from Illinois. Hahsibal Hamlin, Of Maine, who was nominated on Friday eve ning last, by the Republican Convention at Chicago fur Vice-President, was born in Paris, Oxford County, Maine, in August, 1809, and is now in the 51st year of his age. He is by profession a lawyer, but for the last twenty four years has been, for much of the time, in political life- from 1836 to 1840 he was a member of the Legislature of Maine-, and for three of these years he was the Speaker of its 7 House of Representatives. I» 1843 he was elected a member of Congress, and re-elected for the following term. In 1847 he if as a mem THE TIOGA- COTLHT-Y AGITATOR. ber of the State Legislature, and the next year was chosen to fill a vacancy, occasioned by the death of John Fairchild, in the United States Senate. In 1851 he was re-elected for the full term in the same body, but resigned on being chosen 'Governor of Maine in 1857; ' In the same' month he was again elected to the United States Senate for six years, which office he ac cepted, resigning the Governorship. He is still a member of the Senate. This record is an evidence of the confidence with which he has always been regarded by his fellow-citizens in Maine. Up to the time of the passage of the Kansas- Nobraaka Bill in 1854, Mr. Hamlin was a mem ber of the Democratic party. That act he' regarded as a proof that the party, With which he had been all his life connected, no longer deserved the natae of Democratic, and WaB treacherous to the principles he had so long cherished. Thenceforward he gave his support to the Republican party, of which ho has ever since continued a faithful and distinguished leader. Mr. Hamlin is a man of dignified presence, of solid abilities, of unflinching integrity, and grat executive talent. Familiar with the busi ness of legislation, he is peculiarly adapted, by the possession of all these qualities, to fill beneficially for the country, and to his own and his party's honor, tho high post for which he has been nominated; The name of Hannibal Hamlin of Maine is a fit second to that of ApRAHAM Lincoln- of Illinois. FROM WASHINGTON Editorial Correspondence of the Agitator. Washington, May 17, 1860. The Japanese. Monday last was quite a gala day here. At noon the Japanese Commissioners arrived at the Kavy Yard, and were received by the Officers of our Government with more than ordinary display. There were salutes, and speeches, and martial mtlsio, and military parade, and processions and other displays, calculated to impress the Brothers of the Sun with the great ness and glory of the country. They, are quar tered at Willard’s Hotel, Where they will be well taken care of. They have with them a copy of the treaty inllde with their nation, and signed at Jcddo by Commodore Perry, They are, in personal appearance, quite unlike any other race of men I hate yet Been.- They are not tall, averaging about five and a half feet. They are quite sallow-skinned, with a very slight tinge of copper color, and are much darker than a majority of the negro race now in this country. Their features are regular, and plain. Their eyes are dark brown and very expressive. They shave their heads from the forehead back to the crown, leaving the hair to grow long at the sides and back, which is gathered into a kind of knot at the top. They do not wear hats. Their clothes are quite plain, being made of cotton and silk, purple being the prominent color. When the steamer came to the wharf, one of them began at once to take a picture of the scene. Tt was suggested by a bystander that ho was the Frank Leslie of that country. On the wharf the Japanese flag was flying side by side with the stars and stripes, upon seeing which, one of the ambassadors wept. They wear two swords each, but do not look very Warlike or dangerous. As I looked at these dark skinned itleh, t could not help reflecting upon the inconsistency of this Government in recognising them. We ace every day, men born on our own soil, a great deal whiter than the Japanese, who are refused the protection of our laws. Why is thisf so ? The reason is plainly this, that the Negro race has been trampled down by the strong arm of power, in violation of every principle of hu manity and justice. Circumstances over which the slave-trader has had no control, have saved the Japanese from this cruel fate. The modern Democratic creed is, that when wo find a poor and despised race of men, instead of helping them out of their degradation by the civilh zing influences of freedom, we must make slaves of them, kick theta down lower, and op press them the more. It was just this feeling which caused Mr. Keitt to say in the hearing of a friend on seeing the Japanese, “Oh 1 its all right to treat these yellow fellows well now, bttt hye and bye, wo will buy and sell them for slaves!" In the eyes of a slave-driver, Might always makes Eight. Tue Natioxal Coxtbnttoxs. Of course yon will here heard that the Union Convention which met at Baltimore last Week nominated for Presidential honors, Mr. John Bell of Tennessee, and Edward Everett of Mas sachusetts, upon the Platform of “the Union, the Constitution, and the enforcement of the laws," Neither the ticket nor the platform excite any peculiar enthusiasm,. both having been "played out” long ago. The Republi cans regard it as being very harmless, as they believe that the people of Pennsylvania will not be gulled by it ns they were in 1850, The fact recently brought to light by the Covodo Committee, that the i ? Fillmore and Donelscm ticket of 1856 was brought into the field and sustained by money from the Democratic Con tingent Fund will not'help it any. A reporter who went down to Baltimore to attend the Con vention asked one of the delegates why they did not nominate Rufus Choate. “Why!” said the astonished delegate, "Choate is dead!” “Yes, I know ho has been dead a year,” said the reporter dryly, “but Everett has been deader than Choate for twelve years past, and wont run half so well I” People here speak of the Union ticket with a smile. It is called the “fossil ticket” the “old gents' ticket”' and “the Bcll(e) lettres ticket,” which last is a punning allusion to Everett's letters to Bonner's Ledger. It is also called the “Kangaroo ticket” as its strength is believed to be mostly in its hind lege. It is believed, however, that owing to the "harmony” which pervades the Southern Democracy on the slavery question, the tTaion ticket will carry four or five of the Save States. If ike Democracy should gfet together at Balti more, which is' hardly proßdble, then Messrs. Bell and Evprett Vill tarry but three of the Slave States—Mdrylahd, Tbbbessee and Ken tucky. The friepds of Douglas are quite cer tain of bis'nomination'at Baltimore." His enemies (including Buchanan and- his-office- 1 holders) are quite as certain of defeating him, if not in the Convention, at least at the polls in November by giving the seceding States to Bell, if no nomination is made at Richmond, which is probable. Before this letter gets into type you will have had the result of the Chicago Naiiohal Repub lican Convention. It is hardly necessary there fore to record here any of the speculations of the politicians here. It is- generally believed here now by members of all parties that the nominee of the Chicago Convention will be tho next President of the United States. Hence, to-day, (Thursday) telegraphic dispatches from Chicago are eagerly sought after by everybody. Congress. The House passed the Morrill Tariff Bill by forty-one majority. Prominent among those who labored assiduously and earnestly for this measure was Hon. James T. Halo of the 15th District. Judge Hale, although an excellent speaker himself, left that part of the work to such men os Campbell of Pottsville, Grow of our District, Moorhead of Pittsburg and others, and confined himself with Col. Scranton and others to the work of pressing it through, and warding off the inimical amendments of the fillibustering Slave Democracy who fought it inch by inch. Mr. llale has proved himself to he a very industrious and efficient Member, and has by his uprightness of character and cour teous demeanor to his opponents, as well as by his fidelity to the interests of Freedom, acquired an influence here which the people of his Dis trict would be unwise to throw away by selec ting any other man. I trust therefore that the people will insist upon his return as I have no doubt they will. On Friday the Hoiite Considered the contes ted election Case of Howard and Cooper of Michigan, the latter holding the certificate as the sitting member. The House ousted him by a majority of twenty-one, and gave his seat to Howard, a Republican. Mr. Howard is an excellent lawyer, was the chairman bf the Kan sas investigating committee in 1856, and was defeated by the importation of Irish votes into Detroit from Canada the day before the election. The other cases will be taken up soon, and dis posed of. The usurpers will all ha dusted except Sickles, whose opponent did hot comply with tho law regulating contested elections. There will then be a clean working majority on the Repub lican side; The! Senate hds been fchgagcfl fur the niost part dnfifig the #eek in listening fo the discus-, . sion between Davis and Douglas on the Slavery Resolutions. As I predicted in my last; the “irrepressible conflict” has been transferred from the Charleston Convention to the United States Senate. The speeches have greatly dis appointed the followers of both, as they are mere rehearsals of former appearances in the same character by both of them. There are no new points. 11. Y. Tub New York P. 0. Defalcations,— Mr. Isaac Y. Fowler, Postmaster of New York, anc( Grand Sachem of the Tammany Society, last week fled from public justice as a defaulter to tt large amount. Ttumots of ft similar jiattire had before been pot in circulation, and had fotind their way into tho press j but no proof Ijad cVer been adduced to support them, and they bad always failed to obtain public credence or to shake the social and political standing of Mr. iWlcf/ who has been personally popular among all parties as a genial, gentlemanly, and liberal-minded man; Now, however, the facts arc placed beyond dis- pute. The defalcation, which is stated to be 5153,- 000, is of long standing, some of it dating back! as far as 1856. With the assistance of bis friends, Mr. Fowler has, until recently, kept pretty well up in his accounts, but the load was constantly increasing and could no longer be carried. Ills bondsmen are George Law and Gustavus A. Conover, who guaranteed ?75,000 ; but it is probable that they may escape, as the Government knew of the deficit long ago. The place made vacant by the sudden de parture of Mr. Fowler has been tendered to Mr. John A. Dix, He is amply qualified, both by character and capacity, for so responsible a post, Mr. Dix has had, moreover, no little experience in public affairs ; he has been in the legislature and in Congress; is an intel ligent lawyer ; a man of business habits and pecuniary responsibility, and his integrity is beyond all doubt. The Charleston papers satisfy ns on a point which has heretofore not been clear, viz : that the preamble and resolution of the minority report,- referring to thro difference of opinion as to the power of Territorial legislation, etc., and pledgingthe Democracy to abide by the decisions of tho Supreme Court, were voted down.— Brown, of North Carolina, warned the Northern men that tho adoption of this would destroy the party, and like sheep they changed their votes, abandoned their own chosen ground, and the obnoxious resolution only received 21 votes, 8 of which came from the two States of Kentucky and Tennessee. Such skulking on tire part of the Popular Sovereignty men, deserves all the contempt the Southern men have bestowed upon it. Mu. Evebett Declines. —The Washington correspondent of the Boston Traveler states that it is reported in Washington, on tho authority of a relative of Mr. Everett, that he will not accept the position assinged to him upon the Baltimore ticket. His engagements to write for the Ledger are understood to be in the way. Prentice says be has beard of hut one old woman who kissed her cow,- but he knows •of many thousand young ones Who- have kissed very great calves. •The Republicans of ■Washington held an en thusiastic ratification meeting on SJqibrday evening, which was addressed by Mr. Himlin, who gracefully accepted the nominatiot ten dered him by the Chicago 1 Convention} flhd -by other gentlemen, who pledged their several "States for large majorities for the Republican ticket. The harmony of the occasion was in terrupted for a few moments by the disgraceful behavior of a mob; instigated and headed, it is said, by the'son of an officeholder. This -dem onstration of the rowdy element in the Federal Capital was met, however, with proper spirit by the Republicans, and speedily quelled. It amounted to nothing more than a proof of the rage with which the tools of Democratic cor ruption anticipate the ifacoming cif a new order of things:—jVcto York Tribune ; No Compromise. —We copy, the following from the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger: , “We have very decided evidence of the fact that the whole South is more determined now than ever to insist, at the adjourned Baltimore Convention, upon .a plain and explicit and une quivocal declaration that they have an equal right to' go into thfe territories with their prop erty, and that the right shall be protected, when necessary, by all the branches of tha general government. There can ; be no trifling, and in deed, no compromise onthis subject between the south and the northern democracy.” A Great Natural Curiosity.—A wonderful cave has been discovered and explored in Ken tucky: now known as j the /‘Hundred Dome' Cave.” It is said to be fully eqHal in attractiv ness to the celebrated Mammoth Cave, hot many miles from which it is located; The greatest joke of the day is the fact that the ship which bore from Charleston the super doughface Democratic Delegates from Massa chusetts, bore also two runaway slaves ! One of them was discovered and sent by a ship to Baltimore, but the other escaped to Canada. D.
