HON. JOHN J. PEARSON
Tho Republican Convention which assembled
in Lebanon on Monday last, by acclamation,
nominated Hon. John J. Pearson as the candi
date for President Judge of the Judicial District
compoNed of the counties of Dauphin and Leb
anon It is unnecessary for us to enlarge on
the merits which elicited and deserved this
complhnent, nor to declare that Dauphin will
endorse the preference thus unanimously indi
cated by their fellow citizens in another portion
.of this judicial districts. When the proper
time arrives the people of Dauphin will res
pond to those of Lebanon county, by acquiescing
in a choice so honorable and just to the citizens
of both counties. We feel certain that this
will be,the case from the popularity and well
tablished reputation of the gentlem in in ques
tion. Ina position in this district is one of the
meet enviable, both of a judical and personal
character, made such by the dignity, learning
-and impartiality with which he presides in our
courts, the patriotism, loyalty and hospitality
which characterise all his political and social
intercourses. No judicial officer in the com
monwealth possesses to a larger-degree, the
confidence and the respect of the bar, nor wields
a greater or more respectable influence in the
community in which he resides. Judge Pear
atinfis *every sense the manylitted for the sta
,ttbiidintesocre' creditably occinied for so many
yearn tind 4 werejoice, for the sake of lair and
order, and those exalted attributes of justice
which alone can sustain our communities and
preserve this nation, that the.preference of the
people of both counties in this judicial district
so4unitistakably indicate him as this unanim
ous choice for re-election.
Tim PARDON OF Da. DAVID Aim, after being
frictedAwice of fornication and ,bastardy,
tesditement and indignation in:York
county, and was sought to be made a means of
injuring Gov. Curtin by some of the very men
who urged Executive clemency in the premises.
Yllhearork. Republican publishes the :.pirdon, in
which, it appears that Hon. William Henry
andillhis Democratic colleagues of the
Senate with: one exception.. and.both. the Demo
cratic representatives from York, were on the
petition asking for this pardon. The case is re
ported to have been not only a gross and a
criminal imposition upon the confidence and
generosity of Gov. Curtin, but a most base and
cowardly attempt to frustrate justice by aiding
in the escape of one.convicted of the, blaekest
and most damnable crimes in the criminal cal
endar The whole matter is to undergo full in
vestigation, and we join the Republican most
heartikin praying that the .scoundrel seducer
may he brought eientually to condign punish
ment. We notice that already the Democratic
press of the ilk and calibre of the Lewistown True
Dengar,‘,4 are using this pardon to injure Gov.
0E11164 and what is far Worse, when these
facts are laid before the public, such journals
will not , do him the justice to state them fairly.
The, public must.be assured through other and
more respectable sources of his entire innocence
in the matter, and his determination to see that
the wrong is righted in every respect so far as it
relates to the pardon and the influences which
were brought to bear to procure it at his hands.
Tin Coxless or Gas. Fasucerr startles the
northern dough face and irritates the secret
,syru t pathisers with treason in our midst. They
regard it as the initial to other proceedings that
may effect themselves, and begin to see that
this - government is really in earnest to put
down rebellion at all hazards. But it is fortu
nate for the cause of the Union that it is con
fided to hands as sternly determined on its pres
ervation as those belonging to John C. Free
monk and when men begin to calculate the
value of slavery with the value of the Usioi,
we have a similar right to calculate that they
are traitors. These are no times for half
measures. A daring operater is not necessarily
lawskilfal or less cautious. The hour demands
rigicintion and promptitude, as well as courage.
We have had enough of attempts to soothe, to
conciliate, and compromise with traitors bearing
arms hi their hands ; awl we know what we have
suffered therefrom. TENT um DE rum DOWN. We
rejoice at and heartily approve of General Fre- -
mont's action.
Tim LIBANON Corrana objects to the Hon.
Thomas E.- Cochran being a candidate for
judge in the York and Adams judicial district,
on the ground that just such a man as he is,
will be wanted to succeed the present chief
magistrate of Pennsylvania. The Courier has
the reputation of being discrete in its estimate
of men, and who knows but that it is entirely
correct in this instance.

THE NEW YORK DEMOCRACY
The New York Democratic Convention which .
was in session at Syracuse, was represented by its
proceedings to have been a most turbulent, ter
rible and really bitterly antagonistic conclave
of all the old party hacks and aspirants for
office for which that organization particularly
and the State of New York generally are so re
nowned. The only object•that seemed to ani
mate this body was to rescue the belligerent fac
tions of the Democratic party from distraction,
unite them upon some platform, and then march
to success and patronage. This is the design of
the Democracy of other states as well as that
of New York, but the party in the Empire state
have gone to work more in earnest than the'
same factions have attempted in other local
ties. By thelesolutions it will be seen howl
consistently they support the struggle for Con),
stitntional liberty. They approve 'of the effort
to put down the rebellion, declare that they are!
opposed to its aggreviances and its outrages,'
but in the same series of resolutions they eon-'
demn the means used to achieve thesel
ends, and come forward with the usual Dem-1
ocratic dough-face principle of offering terms!,
to traitors by proposing that all the states. l
should assemble in convention for the pur-
, pitse of adjusting our difficulties, and, doubt
less too, of affording .time and opportunity!
for the escape of traitors. On this principle of.
concession and, concilititiOn they claim that a.
Democratic victory in New York would be equal
to the, triumph .of.the federal arms in Ahe south.
They would have done themselves and 'those;
they seek to delude only simple justice ,
by declaring that a. victory on, a platform
such as they present to the Teeple of New
York, would be the means of strengthen-:
ing the band of rebellion', because they pre
sent the plain issue as to whether ;the acts of
this;government in its efforts to suppress•trea
son shall, be endorsed, and however hypticTiti- ;
callY they may seek to condemn rebellion, a
latent sympathy for their old political allies
evident in all their resolutions. It' is evident,:
too, that the people of the north expect little,
aid sympathy in their present struggles fromi
the leaders of the old factions of a once power -I,
ful party. They are determined to turn the!
crisis if they can, to their own success and ag-t
grandisement, and against ; these it. becomerl
every loyal man in. the free states to contend ast
sternly as he now does against the hopeless tri=,
umph 'of rebellion.
Attempts were made to modify these resolu
tions, but without avall,.and they were adopti
ed unchanged. The Convention then proceed ,
ed to nominate State officers, and the following
ticket was made :
Secretary of Bic le—David R. Floyd Jones of
Queens county.
Judge of Omit of Appeals—. Geo. F. Comstock
of Onondaga.
CentroUm—George-F. Scott of Saratoga.
Attorney-GeneralLymtui Tremain of Albany.
Z•easurer—Fraticis C. Bronck of Erie.
Canal Commissioners—Jarvis B. Lord of Mon
roe, long tern, W. W. Wright of Ontario, short
term.
State Prison inspector—William C. Rhodes of
New York.
.„
The convention then adjourned dine die.
Trm CONDIT iN
. OF Ain AT WAIRLINGTON is
becoming more and more critical, and even
while we write, a most sanguinary battle may
be progressing. The rebel , pickets are now
within sight of out own—their entrenchments
have been moved steadily forward until our
troops can almost = cross bayonets with their
own, and certainly this state of affairs cannot
last much longer without a terrible and terific
encounter. It is sufficient to-state that our
armies •are - thoroughly organized and pre
pared to
.give their 'pea a warm reception
whenever thsy may appear. Gen. ,McClellan
is ready to receive company as soon; se they
choose to announce themselves,,ttid as his
entertainment is to be one devoted to la*
and the vindication of the federal authority,
it is not likely that, , the rebels mill grace ,the
banquet:for any eimaiderable time, or remain.
for the desert of a surrender.
Illi•L'imr Accotarrs' - ntom Itroxitcorn show
that the people of that town were expecting h
great onward movement' of their army. This
oomes • frOm too' many reliable sources to be
doubted, but it is 'also evident that the author'.
tiea•at liichmondlad no Itdequate idea of the
numbers' and 'corklition.Of the federal army.--
When their Generals make the discoverY their
plans may change. The story of "three hun
dred and 'fifty' thousand men under aims in
Virginia" is not credited in Washington city.
Not more thin]: one hundred and and twenty-five
thousand rebel troops menace our line of forti
fications from the Chain Bridge to Alexandrki,
and probably'the nuinber Is much' smaller. It
is, however, admitted that the enemy can
bring' ver a hundred thousand men upon Ales.-
andria or Arlington, leaving ten or twenty
thousand at Leesburg. It is oonsidered alto
gether more probable by some that while
twenty thousand are making a feint opposite
our fortifications," the . liandred thousand are
rapidly concentrating at Leesburg for an inune
diate advance upon Maryland, and especially
Baltimore.

The Loss of the Privateer MT.
Additional particulars of the loss of the
iateer Jeff. Davie have been furnished the Rich
mond Enquirer by one of the crew, named
Dutreux, who says :
"In attempting to cross the bar at St. Augus
tine the brig grounded on the North Breakers.
This was about half-past six o'clock Sunday
morning, thel7th inst. A small boat was sent
ashore with Dr. Bacock and Lieut. Bays, and
the prisoners landed. The officers and crew of
the privateer then went ashore, and were greet
ed with the most enthusiastic demonstrations
by the inhabitants. About half past nine two
light-boats went off to the brig along with Capt.
Coxsetter and other officers. The starboard
guns were thrown overboard to lighten the
vessel, in order to clear her decks of water and
save as much as possible of the suppli, a on
board the brig;
riftbrt was , made to save Jiietrything
then on boarll,•but it was supposed that "the
guns thrown overboard stove her In and caused
her to bilge. The light boats, -however, were
filled with a large amount of provisions and
baggage, and finally succeeding in saving all
the small arms on board. .•
"The ladies threw open their houses and they
were received with cheers upon chews Cheers
were given for the Jeff. Davis, for the Southern
Confederacy, and the .utmost hilarity. and re
joicing for the safe arrival of the privateers was
manifested. While they were sumptuously pro
vided for, and furnished with every comfort
that could possibly be deviled.
"They learned afterwards that there had been
considerable excitement in the town on thSap
pearance of the Jeff. Davis, it having been sus
pected that she was a Yankee' cruiser in dis
guise, and had hoisted the •Confederate' flag to
deceive or decoy some of the vessels from the
shore. The prisoners were also 'treated very !
kindly, and supplied with everything comfort
able.
• " Every effort was made by Captain Coasetter
to secure as much possible for the stockholders.
The brig is a total loss. But a small piece of
her bow. was remaining on Thursday morning,
when our informant left, and it was then
thought that she would go to pieces before day
light."
Major.Generah McClellan, Fremont ; and Hal-i
lock, who have been appointed to that rank
the regular army, were all formerly officers of.
the army—two of them Generals, McClellan
and Hallock—end West Point graduates, and:
were foremost is their class. General Fremont]
achieved a reputation for himself as, a cavalryt
officer upon the Plains and in frequent engage-I
ments with , Indiana. The four Major Generalist
for volunteers are Hunter, 'Dix, Banks, and:
Butler. Gen. Hunter is a graduate from West!
Point, and was appointed from the regular,
army.
General Dix has served in our army unde
General Scott, while Generale Banks and Butler
were appointed from civil life and have been
universally approved..' These Generals have al- ,
ready made evident not only adminb3trative but,
military talent s that has attracted to them the '
attention of the nation. The brilliant adminis
trative ability numifested by. Generarßanks, ae
Speaker of the .Honse of Representatives and
Governor of the State of Massachusetts, was but
an earnest of what is promised in his, military
career.
Brigadier-Generals Mansfield, McDowell,
Meigs, Anderson - Ripley, Rosencrans and Tho
mas, are all graduates of West Voint,.and were
all distinguished in their classes. Thirty-six of
the fifty-four Brigadier-Generals appointed are
West Pointgraduates,
_two others- were Officers
of the regular army, and still four others served
with distinction as volunteers in the Maxi*
war. There are only twelve of the Brigadierir
who haver:rot had the adventage.of _either mil

THE KENTUCKY LEGISIATURE.I
Important Message of Goy. Magoffin:
FRANinfoas, Sept. 6
The Senate was organized to-day by the elect
tion of John F. Fiske as Speaker, and J. 11. 1, ,
Johnson clerk. •
Gov. Blagoirm's message was received and
read. The Governor says :
"Kentucky has the right to assumes neutral
position. She had no agency in fostering thei
sectional party in the free States, and did not
approve of the separate State action and seces
sion of the southern: States at the time. Until
recently Kentucky's neutrality has not been
seriously aggressed by either belligerent power;
though lawless raids have been suffered front
both sides,.private property has been seized,
commerce interrupted. and our trade destroyed.
" These wrongs have been borne with pa
tience, and reparation obtained when possible.
But a military federal force.has been organized,
equipped, and encamped - in the central portion
of Kentucky, without consultation with the
State authorities, bat a short time before the
assembling of a Legislature fresh from our peo
ple.
"If the people of Kentucky desire more
troops, let them be obtained under the Cons*
tntlon of Kentucky.' I, therefore, recommend
that the law of last spring be emended,: so as to
enable the Military Board to borrow &sufficient
sum-of money to purchase arms and munitions
for,our `defame' . -.. 1
The Governor infers from the President's cor
respondence that if he thought the people of
Kentucky desired the removal of the Federal
forces from the State, the Presddent would com
ply, and Magoffin :recommends the .passage
resolutions requesting the disbanding or rd
moval of all military bodies not under the State
authority.
He complains of the continued introductioh
of Federal guns, and the distribution thereof tb
private citizens. He considers this a source
i f
irritation which should be arrested.
He refers to the Legislature a number of cases
of aggression upon the private rights of citizens
of the State •by bodies of the belligerents; where
he hat the right or power to afford redress.
Aftertiscussing the national difficulties, h!
says Kentuckians have meant to. wait the ex
haustion of all civil remedies before they will
reconsider the question of assuming new eater-,
nal relations ; but I have never understood that
they will tamely submit to the unconstitutional
oppressions of the North ;i lutt they renounce their
sympathy with the North, that they renounce
their sympathy with the people of her aggriev
ed sister . States,. nor that they will approve of a
war to subjugate the. South. Still less can I
construe any.Mfit446 . votetwur meaning that
„ .
they will proseOntea , coercive'war" against their'
Southern brethern, ,They, meant only that their
have still some hope of the restoration and per
petuation of the Union, and until that hope is
blasted they will not. alter their 'existing
"Their, final decision will be law to me, andl.
will execute every constitutional act of their r -
preee.ntatives as vigilantly and faithfully as
though it originated with myself." i
The Governor.says that in no word or thought
has he thwarted the lawful purpose of the peo
ple of Kentucky, and as such instance of his
adherence, he denounced the. President's war
proclamation of April lbth as illegal, and there
fore peremptorily refused to the demand on
Kentucky for troops. Citing the subsequent
acts of the. risiministration, he says he cannot
give them any sort of sanction.
11e.protests against the further prosecution of
the war ; against Kentucky being made a camp
ing ground or pathway - for the movement of
forces by either belligerents, and- recommends
th e General =Assembly to pass resolutions re
quiring. both belligerents to keep off our soil
and respect Kentucky's neutrality. He con
cludes as follows : "My respect for State right!
and fltattesovereignty will:make me bow in
spectful anbmission to the majority of her Teo
ple, so long as lam a citizen of Kentucky." I
