THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT,
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
FOR TILE AIRENDIRENT OF TILE CONSTITUTION
GRANT/NG THE
SOLDIERS' RIGHT TO VOTE.
lIARRISBIIRG, PA.
MONDAY EVENING, MAY 23, 1864.
Meeting of Conferees.
The Conferees from the counties of Dauphin,
Northumberland, Union, Snyder and Juniata,
appointed for the purpose of electing dele
gates to the National Convention, will meet
at Sunbury, Northumberland county, on Wed
nesday evening next, May 25, for the purpose
of discharging the duty entrusted to them.
TO ADVERTISERS.
The DAILY TELEGBAPII has a larger circula
tion than any other paper printed outside the
great commercial cities. Its circulation in
this city is THREE-FOLD GREATER than any other
paper printed here, or in the counties along
different railroads, and it is also much
•
Larger than those printeu - _
We state these facts merely for the purpose of
satisfying persons who say that it costs much
male to get an advertisement inserted in the
TELEGRAPH than it does in other papers. We
have our regular established rates for adver
tising, (which are much more reasonable than
those published in another paper,) and we
cannot deviate from them, although we fre
quently hear that it is done cheaper in that
paper, and that the proprietors are willing to
take anything offered to them. The differ
ence is only this: the ono paper may Circulate
from five to seven hundred daily, whilst the
Telegraph issues an edition of from SEVEN to
TEN THOUSAND daily.
Business men will readily perceive the ad
vantages to be gained by advertising in a paper
having a large circulation, although they have
to pay somewhat higher rates than are charged
wheie there is a very limited circulation.
The Result of Confiding in the People.
Months ago we insisted that the people
should be intrusted with the power . of select
ing delegates to the National Union Conven
tion. Heretofore the selection of such dele
gates constituted a portion of the proceedings
of State Conventions, and in more than one
instance the preferences of the people were
defeated by the frauds and manceuvering of a
few corrupt politicians. Thus far the manner
of providing for the selection of delegates by
the people shows a healthy political action,
and for the first time in the history of the
politics of Pennsylvania, the State will be
represented in a National Convention by an
undivided delegation-by a delegation not only
known to be friendly to the choice of the
people, but pledged by all that is honorable
and manly to the success of that preference.
By thus referring the responsibility of se
lecting delegates directly to the people, Abra
ham Lincoln will be supported in the Na
tional Convention bye delegation from Penn
sylvania entirely pledged to his nomination.
The people in each Congressional District are
seeing to this in their primary meetings, and,
judging from the proceedings of these, there
is not even an effort made to instruct the
conferees to vote for a rival candidate. After
all, it is always safest to refer all political ac
tion directly to the people. They are the ar
biters alone entitled to dispose of nomina
tions, to fix platforms and guide the action of
an organization. When it is sought by any
party to deny the masses this power, political
defeat is sure to follow.
Don't Give Vp the Ship
Those who may entertain the idea that Gen
eral Grant will be forced from his present po
sition, except under the most pressing circum
stances, are mistaken.
It appears among other things,. that he
would not be inclined to give ups. field or a
purpose on small provocation„ but would be
apt to contest it with_ the enemy till it was
either decidedly won or - decidedly lost. The
sig4ficance of such sentences as these is ap
parent.
sle sent an order from Chattanooga to Gen
oral Burnside at Knoxville, saying:
Should Longstreet move his whole force
across the Little Tennessee, an effort should
be made to cut his pontoon ou that stream,
even if it sacrificed half the cavahli of the Ohio
Army:
Further on he addressed 'the same officer:
I can hardly conceive the necessity .of re
treating from East Ter%nessee. If I did at all,
it would be after losilv d mos t o f th e arm y.
On the 19th of r Jetober last, after assuming
Command of 14 „ie Military Division of the Mis
sissippi, he, telegraphed from Louisville to
Ma jo r G P. ,neral Thomas, whose army was in
g reat P ',craits at Chattanooga.
Sold Chattanooga at all hazards.
Tux draft in Somerville, Massachusetts, has

the Deputy Provost Marshal.
TEE NATIONAL DEBT.—The public debt of
the 'United States on the 10th day of May, as
has been ascertained from an official source,
stood as follows: Debt bearing interest in coin,
$812,336,162, the interest thereon being $O,-
472,714; debt bearing interest in currency,
$404,191,935; interest $22,109,429; debt bear
ing no interest, $509,220,314. Total debt,
$1,726,248,411; interest, $71,532,114.

Union County
A convention of the loyal men of Union
county assembled in Lewisburg on the 17th
inst., for the purpose of selecting Congres
sional conferees to meet in Conference the
other counties of the district, and elect a Rep
resentative delegate to the Union National
Convention to assemble in Baltimoie in June
next. The following are the names of the
conferees chosen:
Messrs. Paul. Geddes, Charles Gudykunat
and Joseph R. Orwig.
Before adjourning, Col. Charles H. Shriner,
from a committee on resolutions, made a re
port, in which he endorsed the present ad
ministration of the National and State Gov
ernments, acknowledgitg and - applauding the
gallant services of the army . and 'the navy,
thanking Lieut. Gen. Grant for his vigorous
and victorious campaigns, and proclaiming a
determination to secure the re-election of
Abraham Lincoln. The resolutions were erti
thusiastically endorsed.
Gov. Sammus., of New York, according to
a telegraphic dispatch which we print to-day;
seems to be very anxious to have a bout with
the Federal authorities. He has written to
the District Attorney of the county of New
York, to have indictments procured against,
all who were concerned in the arrests, con- :
nected With the World and Journal of Com
merce offices. A man of Gov. Seymour's cal ;
not condescend to deal with the
13=!!El
agents= in this transaction—he should only
have to do withthe principals, and at once
therefore, order the arrest of the President: oi
the 'United States and the Seoretary of War,
and have these officials -carried to Albany'
there to answer the chaxges•Of the immaculate
Chief Magistrate of New YOrk.. There has
been farce sufficient in all these arrests, but
this attempt at a show of jurisdiction on the
part of Seymour caps the climax of all that is
ridiculous.
GENTEEL PRISONERS or Wat.--In a Lynch
burg newspaper we find the Union prisoners;
recently captured and sent to that place, de
scribed as "a decidedly genteel set of Yen.-
kees, who conducted themselves with more
propriety than usual." "It is some satisfac
tion," says the New York e Times, "to know
that gentility finds an exponent in a commu
nity which openly boasts of the cold-blooded
massacre of the captured garrison of• Fort
Pillow. A critical taste in matters of social
propriety ought, probably, to pass for high
breeding, even..in a select circle of cut-throats.
There is nothing like style."
A BORDER RIIFTIAI.I KlLLED.—According to
the Richmond papers, the notorious Henry
Clay Pate, of Kansas'border ruffian memory,
was killed at Yellow Tavern, near Richmond,
in a cavalry fight with the Union raiders un
der General Sheridan. It seems that he bore
the rank of lieutenant colonel. The fact is
announced by, the Richmond papers, without
any manifestation of grief for the loss.
LIEUT. GEN. PEMBERTON, the renegade
Northernor who went South, married into a
plantation, sided with rebels, and surrendered
Vicksburg, has sought active service, and been
assigned to the artillery defences of Rich
mond, with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel,
He had previously resigned his commission
as Lieutenant General.

YELLOW WATER POWDER FOR
HORSES.—During a practice of many years in this
community, Dr. Hite has satisfied himself that this pow
der is vastly superior to any other article in use for the
cure of Yellow Water, and is of great service to Horses
that have lost their appetite and are hidebound, foundered
or distempered.. Also, that it will prevent Glanders, Colic
and the Bois, when faithfully used two or three times a
week—invigorating and fattening. For improving the
condition of a Horse, he asserts there is no better medi
cine, as it will strengthen the stomach, and assist diges
tlon,Mleanse the intestines of offensive matter, and regu
late the bowels, when costive, purify the blood and pro
mote perspiration—thus Gm skin is-lrept loose, the pores
are opened, and a lean, scabby horse becomes ;at and
comely.
The Powder can be used for Cato, Sheep and Hogs,
with good effect.
