Cameron ©ontrolcd the radical state
convention Iteld at Jlarrisburg, last
week. The convention declared in
favor of Grant's re election —of course
it would, being composed mainly of
federal uffiee holder?.
Wm P. Wilson did not get the
nomination for surveyor General.
The nominees are, for Auditor Gener
al, David Stanton, of Beaver county ;
for Surveyor General, li. 11. Beath, of
Schuylkill.

There is great opposition iu the
radical ranks to the rc nomination of
Grant. One half of the prominent
and leading radicals throughout the
c untry, are at outs with the great
"gift" man. Justice Miller, of the
United States Supreme Court, is the
choice of the anti-Grant men of the
west.
When, after the election of Lincoln,
S ward boasted in the Senate that the'
Mongrel party would "now take JH>S
se.-sion of the citadel," Senator Ham
mond of South Carolina, replied as fol
lows :
"The Democratic party surrender j
the country without a stain upon her
h nor. boundless in her prosperity, in- j
(..deniable in her strength. We have
kept the government conservative toj
the great purpose of government. We
have placed her.and kep* her upon the
Constitution ; ami that, sir, has been
|!.o cause of your peace and prosperity.j
1 ime trill show vital you will male of j
h'.r; hut no time can diminish our
jglory, or your responsibility.
Time has, indeed shown —and a very
short time, too. Hut the campaign of j
1872 will bring the Democratic party
l> lck to the charge of the citadel, ami
if, in ten years, it can half repair the
liavoc of the decade of Mongrel rule,
it will perform a miracle.
The temperance men arc after Geary

a* the extract below, taken from the pro
ceeding! ol the *tat temperance couven-,
ti'in, held in Philadelj hit last aeek, will]
show: j
A telegram was rece.vo i frotu Culoßtl j
J riian, at Harriiburg-anr, um-ing that
the tekgram sent the day before by the
Convention, asking the Gorernor to with- J
Jiold hi* signature from the bill re-permit
ting the sale of liquor* in Duncannoo b<>r
iigh. Perry county, had ariiivcd too late.
Th.- bill waa signed.
.Mr. Fenn then offered a resolution ex-.
preasivc of the Convention'* concern ati
this intelligence, and uttering it* condem
nation of the act. coming, as it did, troni
one claiming to be a temperance man, who
bad received the votes of temperance men
on that ground.
Mr. Coleman did not *<•<• the u*e f the
passage of any such resolution, and Mr.
Jtaucn agreed with him.
Colonel McFarland and Mr, Fenn hoped
jt would pass.
The debate upon this w strong, llev.
Pennell Coomo* asserting that in January
i Geary liad given the *j>e*ker
hi* word of honor, and as n Chri-ticii gen
tleman, that he never would put his hand
to any paper which would further the use
ur.d sale of liquors, lie, therefore, stamp
ed the Governor as a renegade.
Mr. J.'H. Bypher said his friend Oovcr
tor Geary was a politician, and *#■ look
ing for a nomination as Presidential can
didate. The Governor# conduct was,
therefore, guided by expediency and not
principle. He referred to this from a deep
. nsc of duty. (Laughter.)
After soine pretty sharp critiei-m ol
tioverner Geary. Mr. Sypher -aid, -nr
eastically, that considering the faet tiiat
tiovernor Geary \vu- a |oliey man. and
could not well ii.-lp doing what he did do,
he hoped that the Convention wuul not
vote in the affirmative.
Mr. Fenn called the previous question,
nmid much noise anil confusion. This
having been fully seconded, was agreed to,
and the resolution also.
A case bus recently been decided by
the Supreme Court of Ohio involving
the validity ofsubscriptions for t'liurcb
purpose?. The general principle es
tablished is, that after a church has
incurred any liabilities 011*11)0 strength
of subscriptions, these subscriptions,
arc legally binding. In the case deci
ded the subscription was for the pay
ment of a church debt, and the court
held that the subscriber was bound to
pay. A subscription may be with
drawn before there is an indebtedness,
but not afterwards.
A "case of importance to business
men was recently decided in tho Uni
ted States Circuit Court at Philadel
phia. The Stark Mills having estab
lished a reputation for seamless bags
of their production, these were rivall
ed bv another concern, which took the
name Star Mills, and closely imitated
the trade mark of the former, excepl
that Star replaced Stark. The Courl
held this infringement on an establish
ed trade-nurk, and emcrecd the Si in

Pittsburg, May 7.—| c*j) hardly ngree "
with B*rt llarte that the lluathcn Gbinee
are peculiar for way* that are murky and
t! icks that are remarkable for vanity. The
Occidental rhymer evidently never heard ;
of the Pennsylvania Pincher*. or he would 1
have made an exception in their favor.
The- Pincher is a genus nature, and only 1
pecuLirtothc legislature of Pennsylvania, j
II is o cross the common highwayman and i J
the professional lobbyist. Sometimes he!'
is a member of the Legislature, and sojpe- j *
times he is an outsider, but under all cir- -
cum-Uncos he is impecunious, and, some-; f
v hat unlike Micawber, he is always turn- <
ing something up—after the manner of >
juveniles hunting for angle worms —some,
times Sliding ten dollars, sometimes a bun- I
I drcd, whii&nvw and then a cool thousand 1
rewards a big effort, : <
The Pincher is indiftt-uops tp )hp soil of]
this (Allegheny) county and Philadelphia, j j
these counties bcinj the most populous and i
affiir.liiig the best field of operations. The i |
means through which the Pi&cher works is |
private and local bill* in the Legislature. I ,
The Pinchers from this county number* six j
or eight, two of whom are members of t)ie (
House of Assembly. The outsiders con- (
linually hang about the halls and of li-gis- ,
lation, and operate through the inside (
members. They work something after.
j this style:
A citizen hi--, sny, for instance, aval- i
uablc piece of re#J *.-iatc near the city, M
fine üburb in residence, or aornething of j
that tort. It i determined to pinch htm I
to the extent of a few thousand dollars. A j
bill is introduced into the legislature in- j
' ccrporating a bone boiling company or i
some other equally obnoxious concern, I
which is to be located upon some adjoin- |
ing waste place. It would almost ruin the j
property of the citizen. The bill is re
ferred to the members fiotn AlLgbany. j
! and they being in favor of public improve
ments, report it favorably, and of course it
is read to be passed. The property holder
becomes alarmed at the prospect and rush
es off to Harrisburg. There ho can get the
' ear of no one who will aid him except the
1 Pinchers. They tell him that for S3,WW.
or some appropriate sum, they will secure
" the defeat of tlte bill, lie deposits the
' n oney subject to their order when the bill
, is defeated. Tho Legislative Pincher,
* who first reported the bill favorably, then,
- us he has a right to do under the rules, ob
t jects it off tho cailender, and the iu ney is
i) divided among the Pincher brood. In
i- this way the war is curried on against all
i, kinds of men and all manner of business,
each victim being pinched as long as he
will bleed.
u One particular incident fell under the
notice of the Sun correspondent a few days
[. ugo. The druggists of Allegheny county
were startled one morning to find that a
, s bill was introduced and reported favorably
in the Legislature, creating tho office -of
e Drug Inspector for Allegheny county,
( j with a salary of from $2,500 to $5,000 per
annum, and clothing him with exlraordin
■j I nr >' powers, by means of which he could
I shut up as many drug stores as he chose.

to the enormous sum of $t1",765,M7.
II It will revise and reform the system

ly burden of $2411,000,0U) will be equitably
distributed. The present system not oaly
overloads the failhfttl horse, but tie* some
of the load to his leg*, put* a part upon bn

tail, obstructing his freedom of movement,

The Democratic party will wilhdrau every j

tremities and collect it upon his hack where j
he can carry it with greatest ease. It will,
moreorer, take good care that the taxes

11l The Democratic party will rectify
the abuses of the present hanking system ;

Jamison alias Mcßculh, was hung by
a mob at Helena, Cedar coUDty, N

soulb side of the river, übout four
o'clock yesterday afternoon. He un
arrested near Omaha last week for
the murder of Henry I*ocke, a Ger
wait woodcutter, living in Cedar
cuuutr, iu October last, ami was
brought to Helena for trial, arriving
{here yesterday. There seems to have
been no doubt as to his identity, or of
his guilt, and knowing of his expected
ariiva) at Helena yesterday, quite a
large crowd from this side of the river
was there to meet him.
He confessed the murder, which wa
a cold-blooded one, and three other
murders af which he was accused, lie
having e*ca|>cd from jail her#, on a
similar charge, a day or two before iht
murder in Nebraska was committed.
He objected to being hung because he
wui unprepared to die, but nt be
cause of his innocence. He was once
strung up, but the rope broke, and it
is stated be coolly smoked his pi|>e
while they ware getting the rope rea-,
dy again.
The whole affair, however reprehen
sible, seems to have been conducted
wijh eoual coolness ami deliberation
ou both sides, the pica being that In
was a deep dyed, slippery scouudrel,
and the only safety was in hanging
him, as no ordinary jail would hold
him. The murder with which he wasi
charged, wheu in jail here, was in kil

nut in th.- severest term# against the "new'"

thcorv of what ha* heretofore been under
stood a* of binding force in the Constitu
tion I n-tcad of the rule hitherto univer
sally accepted, that the government of the
United States is one of defined powers, the
decision a*umes that it* powers, except
when the CQtislUukiun in.poxta thorn In
Unn*. are urtrestricted.
It is impossible to concur in thi* opinion
without accepting the doctrine that the
national government is sovereign over ull
the people of the country in the same sense
a* an absolute monarch in Russia or Tur
key r a constitutional sovereign in (treat
Britain. Of thi* "centralized " government,
and the resulting effects of this decision the
Bccord say* the following, which we com
i mend to the perusal of art llpiughtrVil men:
The power of tlie centralized government,
which we originally "ordained" to secure
interim! harmony among the States, secure
■ the common defence and promote "the
general welfare,'' becomes the muster of
the ppople in all tl'ti'f hns"""! de-lings
and relation.* With one another—in a word,
i impair "the obligationsol contracts" hy
i the simple flat of the will of a majority ot
Congress- Indeed, if the centralized gov
' eminent has the power to say that a eon
' tract between its citizens fora certain value
] be liquidated by the payment of a less
value, or of none, it fia* Ijttlo rn-rp to do
sire. if it bu ill tpe Putfvr of Congress to
nrint paper without limit, and declare it a
ecal tender for past and future debts, it is
tantamount to tho power to confiscate to
the government r to debtors the whole or
i say pert of the property of creditors, and
thus practically to repudiate at will public
.- urivate obligations.
