TUN KHAN NOCK, PA. Wednesday, Apr. 14, 1869. DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION. The Democratic State Convention for the nomina tion of candidate: for the offices of Governor and Judge of the Supreme Court, will meet at 12 o'clock m. on Wednesday, July It, iB6O, In the Hall of Rep reientatlvei at HarrDburg. By order of the Demo cratic State Committee. WM. A. WALLACE, Chairman. DAVID CALDWELL, Secretary. April 14, 1668. Judge of the Supreme Court. Amongst the names suggested for nom ination as candidates for this oflice at the ensuing Democratic State Convention, we find in some of our exchanges that of R. B. LITTLE Esq., of Montrose. His legal attainments, together with his reputation and standing in the profession are favorably noticed, and mentioned in terms of high commendation. How far his location may be deemed appropriate, will depend, to some extent, upon the choice that shall be made in the selection of our candidate for governor. A well known Western Radical jour nal says that "a whole heard of office beg gars have returned from Washington with faces as long as hog's snouts. One of them swore that Johnson's Administration could yet be considered respectable in compari son with Grant's. —Another was furious at Colfax, because he hadn't recognized him, although before the election he had called* him his best friend. A third cursed the Yankees because they had gobbled up the rich things and left uothing but crusts and crumbs for the Western men." And so on through the whole gamut of patriotic disap pointment. The spectacle of so much hu man suffering is truly sad to behold. The Judiciary vs. the Legislature. One of the most outrageous and disgrace ful acts of the present infamous Legislature was the hurried passage of the bill summa rily abolishing the 29th Judicial District, of Lycoming county, The Senate immediate ly voted to repeal the act upon learning how it had been snaked through, but the House still refuses to do what is so plainly right in regard to the matter. It is openly charged, and cannot be successfully denied that Peter Herdic, a man who has numer ous heavy suits pending in the courts of Lycoming county, has bribed the Judiciary Committee of the House, and that it is thus prevented from reporting a bill repealing the odious enactment, which Geary sat up until midnight to sign before the ink was dry upon it. In the meantime the Court met at W il liamsport on Monday morning, and pro. ceeded with its business as usual, the entire bar of the city uniting in requestiouing Judge Gamble to disregard the outrageous and unconstitutional act of a corrupt Leg islature. Mr. Peter Herdic, it is said, will proceed with a writ of quo warranto, and, if he does, the rascality which accompanied this piece of special legislation from its in ception to the moment ol its signature by Geary at midnight, and the bribery which prevented its repeal by the House will all be brought to light before the Supreme Court of the State. It may be that the fear of exposure iu this way will induce the House Judiciary Committee to report the bill for repeal, and ensure its passage. If it does not we shall look for some rare rev alations when the case comes before the Supreme Court. — Sunbury Dem. Too Much. For Forney ! Our State Legislature must be a most despicable thing, indeed. Even Forney of the Press is disgusted with it. The job bery, trickery and corruption practiced at Harrisburg has become so gross and out rageous in its character as to alarm the most radical of the radical thieves. Hear what the Press says of it : "The time is drawing near when the State legislature is expected to adjourn, and, as it approaches, the people will begin to inquire what has been done and what has been left undone. The adjournment of thin body will probably be a relief to the State, whose sense of dignity, honor and self-esteem has more than once been injur ed by its proceedings. It is with no feel ing of pleasure or satisfaction, certainly, that we come to speak or write of the body which has passed the Twelfth and Sixteen street Railroad bill; which has dallied with a negro minstrel company, and which, last week, outraged propriety and the reputa tion of the Commonwealth in the disgrace ful "lemon" scene. But to one thing we would call the atten tion of the membera. Now that they have had their firemen's ball, and their minds are again turned to the affairs of the Com monwealth, let them immediately take up and repeal the bill abolishing the Twenty ninth Judicial District, lately passed with such clandestine and questionable haste.— The Senate has already tardily vindicated it self—let the House do likewise. The mem bers probably cannot appreciate the damage they have done the party by their action in this case—to place the matter on higher grounds. Every lawyer in the State repu diates it and blushes at it Every Democrat ic paper and orator, although keeping quiet now, is treasuring up this record against us in October. Let it be understood, without equivocation, that repeal we must have." new commandment is to love Lia "friends" with all his mind and with all hia office* and with all his soul and with all his plunder and with all his strength, and his "old neighbors" next to himself and kin. Upon this hang all the brothers-in law and the profits. The Influence of Pretty Women in Wash ington. The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Republican writes as follows : "But just so long as women are weak and men are powerful, some of the evils of the departments never will be remedied. It is so much more comfortable to a jaded man, worn out in the arduous duties as head of a bureau, to see a fresh, young, pretty-faced woman at an adjoining desk, rather than one with all the sweet juices of life squeezed ont of her, whether by age or misfortune, it matters not which. The first one is the oil of the machinery of every day life ; the lat ter is the adhesive gum which needs clean ing away. Women, who look with longing eves to un active life in the Departments at Washington, had better consult their mir rors first, unless Secretary Boutwell makes new laws to meet individual cases. It is true, a few "crones" may be found in the basement of the building, but as you ascend into the upper realms of the castle, new visions of beauty greet the eye until the spectator is lost in a dazzling dream of en chantment as glorious in its bewilderment as a Turkish harem. In many cases these handsome young women belong to Wash ington families. They have good homes, with the comforts of life, without paying for them. This enables them to spend their wages in the adornment of their per sons. These are the girls whose lives Mrs. Swisshelm so bitterly deplored. These are the women who practice the Grecian bend and who dot our avenues of a brilliant af ternoon as the butterflies do the clover heath. Petted darlings at home, petted darlings at the Treasury, no wonder they are spared their duties if they have a head ache, or a new dress to make. No soldiers widow or starving daughter of the lb-pub lic can drive them from their warm nests, for the reason "that a thingwif beauty is a joy forever." Gen. Schenck says he has tried in vain to get a place for a young girl who had two brothers killed in the army, and who lost her father also in the army. There are other beautiful women there, the mention of who.se names is enough to bring the blush to every honest women's cheek, some public man's pretty plaything, and yet for such as those the widows and daugh. ters of our noble soldiers must stand aside and siug the "song of the shirt," or anoth er quite as sad. Has the sun of another day arised ? With trembling form and bowed head we shall wait and sec." OVER EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL LARS IN BONDS AND CURRENCY STOLEN. — One of the heaviest robberies ever perpe trated in Philadelphia, was discovered about four o'clock Sunday afternoon.— The act was perpetrated at the office of the Beneficial Saving fund Society of Phila delphia, situated at the southwest corner of Twelfth and Chestnut Streets. It appears that the watchman left the premises about six o'clock in the morning, after remaining on duty during the night, and returned about four o'clock in the afternoon, when he found some difficulty in effecting an en trance by the front door. He then gained access to the upper part of the house, occu pied as a photograph establishment, and going down stairs at the rear of the build ing, discovered that the back shutter had been opened. He immediately gave the alarm, and procuring the assistance of sev eral individuals entered the office through the window. On examining the premises it was discovered that the large fire-proof had been broken open, and a small fire proof chest containing the valuable proper ty of the institution taken out and also opened, the contents being carried off by the thieves. The thieves no doubt had their plans well matured, as they had with them heavy tim bers, and all the implements necessary to carry out their plan successfully. They ef fected an entrance to the large fire-proof, by boring into the lock and then pushing the bolts back. In order to do this, they first erected an upright out of heavy tim ber, as a means of purchase for the screw, and in this way, the front of the large iron door was penetrated. Loose papers were scattered all over the office, and the carjiet was torn up in places, showing that the thieves were active in their pursuit after the plunder. STICKING TO THE FAMlLY. —According to what is going on in the Revenue Depart ment it seems that Mr. Commissioner Delano, like President Grant, proposes to carry out the scriptural injunction to the letter regarding his own family, and, as far as the machine has been reconstructed, the account stands thus : Columbus Delano, Commissioner, salary SGOOO ; Smith, De lano's old law partner, Solicitor of the Bu reau, salary 84000 ; John Delano, son of the Commissioner, Chief Clerk, salary S'2ooo ; Clarke, brother-in-law of young Delano, and son-in-law to Father Delano, Clerk, salary 81000 It is evidently a good thing to belong to the Delano family. THE TKNUBE OF OFFICE BlLL. —After nearly a month spent iu wrangling over the tenure of office bill, the Radicals have "agreed to disagree." Some little equivo cation and change of phraseology has been resorted to, but substantially the repeal of the tenure of office law has lieen defeated. The text of the law as it now stands retains the following, the Senate thus triumphing and the House repealers being defeated : "That any person holding any civil office to which he has been or may be here after appointed, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and who shall have become duly qualified to act therein, shall be entitled to hold such office during the term for which he shall have been appoint ed, unless sooner removed by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, or by the appointment, with the like advice and con sent, of a successor in his place, except as herein otherwise provided." Iky-It is thought by some that Grant will soon assume au imperial title, and play the despot right. THE MURDERESS, TWIICREX.L AND EATON. Twitchell Commita Suicide—Eaton ia Hung. George S. Twitchell Jr. and Gerald Ea ton quit the world, but not in company.— Twitchell died at 4 o'clock last Thursday, in his cell, and by his own hand. Eaton expiated the crime of which he had been convicted, upon the scaffold at 12.50 MINCING MATTERS. Eaton is reported to have said, recently, that he did not mirul being hung, but dis liked the idea of bciug hung by the side of such a hypocrite as Twichell. Twitchell was more generous, in word if not in heart. While he apparently did not regard the Sompanionship of Eaton on the fatal trap as increase the ignominy of his death, he expressed his joy, a few days ago, at hearing that there was some hope of a respite for his condemned companion. THE LAST EFFORT AT SALVATION. Twitchell had not been a politician.— Therefore it was necessary that he should resort to some startling trick to cheat the King of Terrors out of a part of the prey allotted him by the courts. The sensation al "confession," with all its improbabili ties and incongruities, was kept back until but live days remained to him as the time within which he must succeed in pervert ing the sympathy of the public, or else die the death the law had decreed. It was a sad thing for a man to attempt to fasten an infamous crime upon the name of the wo mon whom he had sworn to love, cherish and protect; and yet it must be done—not that he might give the halter the slip, but that a man about to be ushered into eter nity might make his peace with God ! Of course such a thunder bolt from a cloud j less sky served to startle, perhaps to amaze, | the world ; but it failed to frighten any j body. And having thus failed utterly to i avert one jot or tittle of his approaching | fate, he did not scruple to place his spirit - j ual adviser in a very ugly position, by sub i sequentlv asserting that the document had been sent to the newspapers "against his desire and consent." i On the contrary, Eaton had been a pol itician of some note, and although stoutly asserted his innocence from tirst to bust, his friends chose rather to rely upon polit ical machinery to secure a mitigation of the severity of his punishment. Within three days of the time, appointed for his death, the time-honored appliances were brought to bear, and with marvellous ra pidity—one of the elegant arts of Harris burg legislation—an act was pushed through both houses conferring upon the Governor the power to commute a sentence of death into one of imprisonment for life or for a term of years. Wednesday it was tele graphed from the capital that the Governor would certainly sign this law without delay and avail himself of its provisions to rescue Eaton from death. But the Governor turned over the proposed statute to his Attorney-General for his legal scrutiny, and finally, late at night, announced that in neither case would he interfere with the due coursfc of the outraged law. Thus ex pired the last hope of Eaton. The doomed man listened attentively to the fatal intelligence, and wheu its full force had broken upon his mind, he ex claimed : "All right! " Then the philosophy which Twitchell had failed to cultivate came to his aid, and after a short silence he said : ! "Tell my friends," running over the uames of a few of them, "tell my friends j that I am very grateful for what they have done for me, and they will have no cause to be ashamed of me, for I will die like a man." EVIDENCE OF POISON, i The appearance of the body indicated I that death had certainly ensued from strych i nine, or some other powerful mineral pois j on. The face presented a livid appear i ance, eyes and mouth wide open. The limbs were perfectly straight, and the hands were slightly contracted, showing that there had been slight spasms. The piece of liquorice which wan picked up by Deputy Coroner Fletcher evidently contained the fatal drug, which had been I placed in a cavity made for the purpose. ' TWITCHELL SIGNIFIES HIS INTENTION TO COM MIT SUICIDE. About half past C o'clock Wednesduy afternoon, Eaton went to the door of his cell and succeeded in attracting the atten tion of Twitchell, to whom he said, sub stantially : "Bear up and die like a man to-morrow, as I intend to do." In answer to this, Twitchell shook his head demurely, held up his thumb and forefinger, as if he had something like a pill between them, and said simply : "Mum's the word !" Twitchell had previously insisted, on frequent occasions, that he could commit suicide, and could not be prevented from doing so. On one occasion he had explain ed to one of the keepers how he could read ily take his own life by placing a pin at the back of his neck, and then, by thrust ing his hand back upon it forcibly, drive it in up to the head, producing instant death. Therefore, when Eaton, about 10 o'clock ; in the evening, called a passing keeper to i him and told him of the incident which ; had taken place between the two, remark i ing that "he could not die composedly , without putting them on their guard," it i was deemed advisable to institute a search I of the cell and person of T tritchell. This was done by the prison officials, but nothing of an apparently dangerous j character was discovered. BATON'S LAST HOURS. Shortly after midnight Eaton was left alone. During the evening, Fathers lieilly and O'Barony passed a portion of the even ing with him. He appears to have slept quite soundly, and without disturbance, until 5 o'clock in the morning, when he was awakened by the keeper, who a few minutes subsequently made the discovery of Twitchell's death. About half past eight o'clock he received a parting visit from several of his nearest relatives—his wife, brother-in-law, sister-in law, and a little girl of eight or nine years whom he had adopted' as his own child.— The interview with these was very affecting and when they left him he is said to have been deeply moved. Ilis spiritual advisers were then admitted, and remained with him until the next turn in the solemn prepara tions for the closing scene. About 10 the rosary was recited by Fath er Beilly, in presence of Joseph R. Chan dler, Esq., one of the prison imqieetors, and another gentleman possessing the same faith with tlm condemned man. Eaton en tered into these services with great earnest ness, making the responses—which he had thoroughly committed to memory—in a clear and distinct tone, and appearing fully to realize the solemnity of the occasion and of the services. Under the guidance of his spiritual ad vers he had been faithful and zealous in observing the requirements of the Church, and was prepared to meet his fate with all Christian fortitude. In the interval between the religious ex ercises he conversed freely and unreserved ly with several persons who were admitted to see him, part of the time throwing him self back in his cliair, as he smoked a cigar mid at others walking up and down the cell, not altogether at his ease. EATON'S STATEMENT. Eaton assured his friends that he never fired the pistol, but that it was taken from his pocket by another person who is now at large, and fired at Hecnan. He further states : "The night was dark and rainy, and you couldn't see a mau right in front of you. It was a regular drunken row.— Ten shots were tired in quick succession, and yet their eyes were so sharp that they detected the very shot which killed Heenan —the fourth that was fired —and swore that I tired it. They swore that I fired that shot down the street, while the murdered mau was standing on the pavement four houses uj) the street from me. Tic- man that took the pistol from me is now walk ing the streets of Philadelphia. A man was standing by me all this time, and could have testified for me, but they in dieted him as au accessory, to keep liirn off the stand, and then discharged him." A Negro Official Lionized in Washington He sleeps with a White Senator. The negro Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana has been to Washington, to see the sights, and was welcomed with open arms by the Mongrel leaders there. He held levees in both halls of Congress, and was introduced to the Radical members separately. The Washington correspon dent of the Baltimore Sua thus describes tho reception of the colored gentleman : "The colored Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana was upon the tloor of Congress some time to-day. While in the Senate quite a iuunl>er of Senators went up and spoke to him. Mr. Wilson went over to Senator Garrett Davis and proposed to pre sent him to the distinguished colored indi vidual, hut Mr. Davis good humoredly de clined.- Mr. Duuu is copper colored, of line proportions, and very respectable looking, with an intelligent cast of features, and is said to speak French and English fluently. He was attired in a plain suit of black, with kid gloves, the color of his skiu. Amongst others who talked to him were ex-Attorney General Evarts, Lathrop Motley and Lyman Tremaiu. Since he has l>een in the city it is said that Gov. Duuu has roomed with one of the Louisi ana Senators, wnioh has had the effect to cause certain other parties who were stop ping at the same house to leave. Senator Sumner took pains to pay him particular attention to-day. After satisfying himself with the Senate, the Lieutenant Governor strolled over to the House of Representatives, and was there also received with open arms. Occu pying a position in the northwest corner of the hall with Senator Cameron, who came over from the Senate with him, Mr. J. 11. Sypher acted as usher, aud one by one marched the Republicans up and intro duced them. The Lieutenant Governor seemed to appreciate the situation, and as he stood there his tall and commanding figure toweriug above all who were intro duced to him. Some of the intense Radi cals were very obsequious, but others of the Republicans walked up with au appa rent reluctance, and left us soon as they had shaken hands with their guest. Others seemed particularly anxious to attract at tention to the vast amount of respect they were disposed to show him." While tho scramble for office is wa ging terribly, we will cast a glance at the condition of the treasury from whence tlie spoil is to come. The following statement shows the amount of the national debt at different periods and the interest. A radi cal Congress is responsible for this great increase of burthens upon the people in times of peace: May 1, 1868, §2,500,528,827 June 1, 1868 2,510,245,885 August 1, 1868 2,523,534,480 September 1,1863, 2,535,614,313 October 1, 1868, 2,534,643,718 November 1, 1868, 2,527,120,552 December 1, 1868, .2,539,031,844 January 1, 1869, 2,540,707,201 February 1,1869, *. .2,556.205,658 March 1, 1869 2,545,338,90# On the first of next May a large amount of interest on the public debt falls due, and some thirty or more millions of dollars in gold will have to be promptly paid out to the bondholders. When that little account is settled we cuu balance the books, and see how we stand. The debt statement to be made the first of next June will be look ed for with interest by the toiling tax-pay era of the nation. | The Last President of the United States Iu 1862, a gentleman, then, bnt not now, j a resident of Chester county, paid a visit to ! Wheatland, Ikin. county. He said on re ceiving the hospitalities of Mr, BUCHANAN, that "he had come to pay his resiects to the last President of the United States." To u pointed negative from the Ex-President, he replied--"I am firmly convinced that America lias seen its last Republican Presi dent in the person of JAMES BUCHANAN." Whatever may have prompted the re mark, so far it has proved prophetic. We have had no President of the United States since that period. The original thirteen are not now united. The administration of ABM. LINCOLN commenced with acknowl edged usurpations upon the Constitution' which was the bond of Union, and it closed leaving the country governed, not by the Constitution and civil law, but by a tyran nical " military necessity." His successor, ANDREW JOHNSON, made effort, but failed to restore the Union and civil rule. The despotic twv-thirds of the Senate and House, wedded lo pltinder, rob bery aud corruption, were too strong for him, and endeavored to parcipitate the country into anarchy or despotism. PRESIDENT GRANT, entered upon the du ties of Executive officer nominully. He is shorn of many of the high duties and re. RpOnsibilities of his office, and, however brave as a soldier, he manifests cowardice or senility as a civilian. He is emphatically a tool of the money-power of the country ; aud his cupidity leads him to imagine him self a Ciesar. The rapid progress made in the destruc tion of the Republic, has emboldened the bondholders, who hope to secure unlimited sway, and they havr.

Since tha above was in type both parties hat e been arrested. They were found in Baltimore and brought over on Wednesday. The negro was placed in jail, and the girl returned to her phrents. Grant is credited with the fol. lowing remark upon the threatened Indian war in Alaska : I've been thinking about that country a good deal. The newspapers sav we are in danger of an Indian war up there. I think I've settled on a plan for stopping that. If one breaks out, 1 believe I will withdraw all the troops, and then there won't be any thing there for the Indians to fight. And Radical papers oopy this as an evi dence of wonderful sagacity—never stop ping to think that the same principle is quite applicable to the South, and that if the South is "disturbed." and if the Ku- Klux-Ivlnns are rampant things in that sec tion would be far more quiet if the troops were withdrawn, and especially if such troops as Brownlow's malitia in Tenn. and Clayton's militia iu Ark. were disbanded. APPOINTING NEGROES TO OFFICE. —Two out of five Justices of the Feace, just ap pointed in Washington City, are negroes B. F. Joubert, a negro, has been appointed Assessor of Internal Revenue for the First District of Louisiana, and C. M. Welder, another negro, has been made Postmaster at Columbia, South Carolina. There can be 11 0 pretence that competent white men could not have been found to fill all these offices. A gallant white Uuiou soldier, who fought through the whole war was un ap plicant for the Columbia postoffiee. Ne* groes were chosen because the Radicals nre determined to enforce the fanatical ideas of equality between the two races.
