PRU3AR7 ELECTIONS j
of Officers for Union County, Pa. !
The qualified voters of Union county who
support ihe election of Lincoln, Hamlin, and
Curun, are invited io meet at their usual pla.
ces of holding (General Elections, in their re
speciive Townships and Uuroughs, on tal
lirdajr, Alls. 4, ISGO in the Townships
trotn two to Jtvc o'clock, and in Ihe Boroughs
from four lo rtvrn o'clock, afternoon and
alter choosine a Judge, Inspectors and Clerk
or Clerks if desired, proceed to vote, ar iu

One candidate for Congress,
line candultie for Assembly,
One candidate for Register & Recorder,
One candidate lor Associate Judge,
One candidate for County Commissioner,
One candidate for Couniy Auditor,
One person tor Iteiurn Judge of the district
in which ihe iroter resides,
And also to vote for or against this system
of balloting directly for candidates.
The ballots to be opened as soon as the
hour for closing has arrived, read aloud, and
the true returns, certified by ihe Judge and
Clerks, lo be given lo the Return Judge so
chosen. The Keturn Judges to meet in the
Court House at Lewisburg, at tea o'clock in
the forenoon of Monday, Aug. 6, I860, then
and there to correctly return, add up and pub
lish the number of votes cast for each candi
date for each office, and those having the
highest number of votes for each office re
spectively to be declared the nominees of the
party. The Judges also to provide for the
choice of Conferees, appoint a Standing Com
mittee, and determine, by the vole cast, wheth
er the present or the former mode of designa
ting candidates shall be continued.
The Commiltee are induced to propose this
mode of eflecting nominations, at the request
of many, believing it to be more truly repub
lican, as it gives every one an equal voice in
viewing candidates, without Ihe intervention
of Delegates. It should obviate Ihe objection,
oft:a made by defeated candidates or Iriends,
thai they have been betrayed or wronged a
charge which, from the round-abooi way of
nominating, and the secret acts of delegates,
has oflen created dissatisfaction resulting in
defeat. This mode of voting directly called
the "Crawfoid County System" has been
tried with increasing approbation in many
counties. We recommend otirfellow-ciuzens
to give it a fair test, and judge whether it is
not more just and satisfactory lo all reasona
ble men than ihe conventional caucus mode.
We alsa nrge a prompt attention lo the hours
named a strict scrutiny ot the riant to vote
of every person offering and an honest and
prompt return, so that no one can have any
occasion lo complain of an irregularity.

New Mode of Nominating;.
In May last before there were any can
didates whatever in the field a decided
U'jority of the permanent Committee
agreed to issue tbe above Call. As there
was no one before the people for office, it
is apparent that tbey bad no personal or
sectional ends in view. They sought only
tbe harmony, the prosperity, and the best
interests of tbe party.
For 6ome years past, a growing dissatis
faction with our cinens delegate system
his prevailed. Some good men refused to
attend primary elections, because (as they
averred) tbe Delegates chosen could not
be depended upon after election they bar
tered away the vote of tbe man for whom
tbey were pledged, for other candidates or
for money. Others, disappointed in their
desires or anticipations, blindly revenged
themselves upon the party, and opposed
n BOnMOces, to strike at some individual
with, whom they were offended for what be
mvtti not or could not do. In some ca
eca doubtless, tbese suspicions have been
well foaaJtd in others, they were cruelly
titjust. Tbe KEMEDV for this dark,
indirect, second-banded way of getting at
i be popular will, is, to delcuate NO
1VVU TAKE .N0riMN3 FROM THE fEO
I LB VTU1CU THEY CAN EXEBC1SE THEM-
frbLVES, in their isolated capacity. Let
ibem tote ffiied'y for the men of tbeir
tboice; let no Delegate be thrust between
tbe voters and tbe nominees, to deceive
ibem, to sell them, to thwart their withes,
cr to be out managed. In this way, every
vote counts, cerfotn, and is not lost because
it happens to be in a bare minority in one
ballot-box j it counts in the aggregate
tbrongbout tbe county, and one man's vote
is as good as another'. Every voter
would thus feel encouraged to come out
sud indicate his preference, thereby giving
a true index of tbe popular will; tbe
candidates (and their friend.) who may
I c defeated, can see that it u eomparativc-
ly fairly done, by the unbiased tribuual to 1
wbom the choice was eotfided, and could
without complaint or ill feeling join in
honoring the more fortunate party brethren
who received tbe mnjwity votes. Every
man will also feel bis imltvitlual rr.'pomi
biliiy in the matter, fur he votes, and not
his Jfpn'y be must take moro caro in
scanning tbe fitness and claims of candi
datesbe will not feel compelled by
common consent to vote for an in
competcut "neighbor," if a man a little
further away is more deserving and, vo
ting by ballot, he exercises his high power
in tbe safest manner, accountable only to
bis God.
It is ohjWfetl, that this way gives towns
and thickly settled townships the advan
tage, as tbey can easier come together and
vote. (The same objection lies against all
Eloltious by the mass of the people. Why
shcu'J not tbe same chance be given to
Nominate, as lo Elect, our officers?) As
a matter cf Aid, we bavo found that, in
Union county, with a day fixed in advance
the stable population of our Townships
have polled as large votes in primary elec
tions, as the fluctuating Doroughs all
depends upon tbe interest manifested.
Every District is entitkd to have its exact
strength felt in the selection of candidates,
and by a direct vole the majority of vo
ters can bave equal justice done them,
wherever Ibey may reside. By the Dele
gate system, tbe 30 Republican voters of
Ilartlcton bave tbe same power as the 100
Republicans in Hartley Twp tbe 50 of
our party in Union Twp. have tbe same
power as tbe 150 iu liuffaloc Twp. This
system might staud in the rotten boroughs
of the old world, or where Slavery exists,
but not in a Republican land, where every
man is tho equal, at tbe polls, of every
other man. Why should one man, in
Ilartlcton lorouyh, be equal to vVee men
in Hartley toicnJu'p ? or wby one man in
t tun have the same power as three men
in Buffaloe, or 11 hite Deer f That system
is clearly wrong, and should be righted.
By toting directj for our men, every one
has an equal chance and no more, wheth
er be lives in a thinly or thickly settled
neighborhood, township or borongb.
The objection, that in tbe multiplicity
of candidates, one man may chance to
bave more votes than any other man, and
yet, if tbe choice lay between two or three,
be would not be selected, is valid. For
many candidates sometimes some of them
mere decoy-duoks, to allure away votes
from some other man, and thus make false
issues are an evil. But tbe same evil
exists under tbe Delegate system. And
we should hope that, at least two weeks
before the Nomination, every candidate j
proposed, who docs not desire to stand a j
vote, should have his name withdrawn, so
that the candidates be reduced to the
lowest actual number, and tbe people can
then vote intelligently. .
In conclusion we would say, the new
mode is becoming more and more adopted,
by both parties, and it is alleged ensures
better candidates and more harmony than
the old mode. It cuts off the trado of
selling votes in Convention, and puts some
small demagogues at rest. Let us give it
thorough proof. Look about, cattily
and unprejudiced, and pic out, , l3 10 ioduce tbe lady to give her experience

Plain Talk to Fennsylvanians.
A gentleman in Lewisburg desires us
to cjpy the following abstract of a private
letter from a citiron of an adjoining Slate,
who writes strong Saxon " like a Dutch
uncle." lie is about right, we think. It
is the Delilah of Party which has shorn the
locks of the Samson, Pennsylvania, long
toiling in the prison-mill of tbe Philistine,
Slavery. Bat bis strength is returned he
is preparing to avenge himself next Fall.
Deab Sia: Congress is adjourned. No
Tariff, as was anticipated from the begin,
ing. Tbe Senate, the wise branch, saw
proper to givo Pennsylvania her usual
thumps, cuffs, kicks, dodges, and go-bys.
LIcr citizens deserve no better fate, so long
as tbey act like pack of thick-headed
boobys, by supporting any bastard idea
gotten up by any "democrat" wbo has ira-
' pudence and ignorance sufficient to make
a bungling speech before a lot of laughing
burly beads backed up around a bar-room
at a road-side out of town, or in town, any
where, no matter where, so that they re
ject their best interests. Tbey hurraed
for "Polk, Dallas and tbe Tariff of '42,"
and got Polk, but so Tariff. "Go for
Pierce and tbe Tariff '." they got Pierce,
but no Tariff. "Go for Buchanan and
Protection 1" tbey got Buchanan, but no
Tariff. Tbey now want Clay and tbe Tar
riff can't get Clay, but ask you to go for
Breckinridge, Douglas, and a Tariff. Big
ler, they say, is a most decided, sharp,
shrewd shingle splitter. lie voted for a
postponement of the House Tariff bill on
the ground of not a full Senate, (minus
two members only) great discovery ! Tbe
people from Pennsylvania gave bim trou
ble; be moved a reconsideration, got it,
made an amendment, unintelligible a
"point no point" gave way to an adjourn
ment, got it, retired, and wrote to Clear

any better fate. She selects these thick

What Cushing says of Lincoln.- I
In a conversation between Caleb Cush-
ing and Col. l'arker, author of Reminis

"Abraham Lincoln is a much abler man

own party. In his canvass with Douglas,
he beat him in argument, beat htm in law, j
beat bim in wit ; and tbe published de- ,
bates of that canvass Will sustain IBIS as- .
