UNDER WHICH KING.
The nomination of two Presidential tickets
by the Democracy at Baltimore," threw the
faithful into the worst dilemma they have ever
experienced. They were at a loss to know
which of the two they should support whether
they should go lor Douglas, or for Brecken
ridge and several days passed before any con
siderable number would commit themselves.
Their newspaper editors were the most sorely
puzzled of all, and made all sorts of excuses
for postponing any decided expression of opin
ion until they could, like a cettain Uoosier
politician, get "moar light on the subject."
Oar neighbor of the Republican seems to have
been in this category ; but we presume that by
this time be has consulted the proper oracles,
heard their decree, and will in his issue this
week let the world know whom he will serve.
Quite a number of his editorial brethren have
in the meantime taken their position some
for Douglas, others for Breckenridgo and if
we are permitted to judge from the press bow
matters stand with the masses, we should say
that the party is nearly equally divided be
tween the two factions. Efforts, it is true, are
being made to reconcile differences ; but there
is too ranch bitterness and hatred exhibited by
both wings to admit of a well grounded hope
that any thing can be effected. Their tradi
tionary charm of "sticking to the ticket," and
that the party was invincible, has been dis
pelled, and certain defeat stares them in the
face. Indeed, some of the leading Democrat
ic papers acknowledge that there is no hope
for them. Wo have only room to give a para
graph on the subject, from the N. Y. Herald.
In a late Issue that paper says :
"The Democratic party istlestroyed. There
Is not the remotest visible ghost of a contin
gency for the reunion of the belligerent ele
ments of this revolutionary convention. The
moral consequences of what they have already
done render it superfluous to speculate upon
what they may do to-day or to-morrow. As
suming that those fighting factions, cliques,
and sections may still agree to bury the hatch
et, and unite upon a compromise ticket, it will
avail them nothing. The party is broken to
pieces, and, with one, two or three tickets, it
must be superseded. It is too badly cut up,
too seriously crippled, and has too many bones
broken, to be healed and put upon its legs a
gain in a single day or a single year. It is
practically dissolved and disbanded, whatever
may be the remedies attempted. In brief,
the .National Convention of the Democratic
party, having become degraded to the base
condition of Tammany Ilall in its worst days
of ruffianism, is only suffering the fate of Tam
many Ilall discords, divisions, rebellion, de
feat and disgrace."
Arrival or the Great Eastern. The im
mense steamship Great Eastern has reached
the port of New York. At 1 o'clock on the
morning of the 28th she came to anchor off the
light-ship at Sandy Hook, after a voyage of II
days, and within half an hour .the news was
flashed all over the Union. Her best perform
ance was 333 nautical miles in 21 hours, and
had she been ran at full speed, and by the
most direct route, her passengers assert that
she would have made the passage inside of
nine days. The cautiousness of Capt. Vine
Ilall, however, led him to deviate occasionally
to the southward of the true course, and much
time was lost in verifying and correcting the
compasses, between which, owing to the local
attraction)- there was a very considerable dif
ference. . She ' came into port much lighter
than she will usually sail, in order to cross the
bar ; but this fact is countervailed by the foul
boss of her bo t torn which very much retarded
her speed. Unquestionably sho is in many
respects of a perfect model. Her prow parted
the water without a ripple, and she left it aft
cleaner than any other ship. She is stiff and
Btannch so much so, that her great engines,
wheels and paddles impart scarcely a percep
tible vibration to her frame. She moves
through the water with the least swell conceiv
able for so vast a bull. When first seen from
the front, she looks square, vast and nngainly,
and in her upper works appears like a crippled
ship. The latter fact is probably due to the
absence of main-top-gallant yards. Only three
of her masts are sparred at all. The first look
at her disappoints one ; but when she passes
objects by which her vastness may be mea
sured, then she looms np in all her gigantic
proportions. Within an hour or two alter her
arrival the whole bay was covered with water
Craft, loaded down with thousands of passen
gers whose enthusiasm was truly electric.
She will remain on exhibition at the foot of
Hammond street, New York, for the next six
weeks, for the benefit of her stockholders.
Mr. Fitzpatrick, who was nominated for Vice
President on the Douglas ticket, having de
clined the honor, tbe National Executive Com
mittee have selected Uershel V. Johnson, of
Georgia, who has accepted the nomination.
Hon. John Schwartz, member of Congresa
from Berks county, aied on the 20th June.
BATES AND LINCOLN.
The Hon. Edward Bates, who was the first
choice of many Republicans as the party's
nominee for the Presidency, has written a let
ter to the St. Louis Democrat, in which he
gives his cordial endorsement to -the Chicago
nomination. lie afErms, what is undeniably
true, that the Presidential contest will be be
tween the Republicans and the Democrats.
He prefers the former party for various reas
ons ; that the Democratic party has merged
its national existence in the one and sectional
question of negro slavery ; that it has in va
rious instances endangered the constitutional
rights of co-ordinate branches of the govern
ment, attempted to degrade the judiciary by
striving to make it a passive registrar of par
ty decrees. In most, if not all things, he
considers the Republican party the opposite
of the Democratic, and therefore entitled to
his support, and this would be a sufficient
reason for bis supporting any man whom the
Republican party might put forward if he had
no other good reasons for supporting Mr.
Lincoln. The Union party ho considers too
weak to elect any candidate or establish any
principle. He says he has known Mr. Lincoln
for more than twenty years, and that "he has
earned a high reputation for truth, candor,
courage, morals and amiability j that he has
talents and he will uso them to the best ad
vantage. He is the peer of the first men of
the nation, and well able to sustain himself
and advance the cause against adversary, and
in any field where mind and knowledge are
the weapons used : that, in brief, he considers
him a sound, safe, national man, who could
not be sectional if be tried, for all his feelings
and interests are identified with tbe great val
ley of the Mississippi, and that for the good
of the . whole country he hopes he may be
elected." .
Edward Bates has a Union-wide reputation
for conservatism. probity and high intelligence,
and his testimony to Mr. Lincoln's character,
abilities and national spirit, is of the highest
value. It would be satisfactory and conclusive
to every candid man, even if it stood alone.
But similar testimony is borne by all who
have known and closely watched Abraham
Lincoln of Illinois. Unquestionably the Re
publicans have made a wise choice in selec
ting him as their standard bearer. As a man
of high talents and a most estimable character,
a man of rigid temperance, of unquestioned,
nay proverbial, honesty and probity, of nerve,
courage and powers of endurance, and totally
unconnected with any clique either of politi
cal, impracticable or political speculators, he
is the man for the time, to whom the whole
country could look with confidence for that
reform, moral and financial, in the fedeial Ad
ministration, that probably never was so great
ly and urgently needed as at the present time
And when a man has won the esteem and con
fidence of his fellow citizens of the character
of Edward Bates, as .well as attained a just
and substantial popularity with the masses,
there exists no reason why he should not be
triumphatly elected to the highest office in tbe
gift of the American people.
Ccttisq ofp a Diseased Member. The spee
ches made by Jeff. Davis, Breckenridge, Hal-
lett and Toombs, upon the occasion of a sere
nade to Breckenridge, at Washington, after
his nomination, show the prevalence of the
most intense feeling of bitterness toward Doug
lass. Davis said his fate would be like that of
Van Buren, and that his followers were only a
set of spoilsmen and Treasury plunderers
they would cut him off as a diseased member,
just as Van Buren was cut off. It is thus the
South deals with refractory Northerners. It
uses them while it can, and when they show
the least signs of independence, spurns them
as rebels. . The administration and the South
have determed to crush Douglas, and they
will do it; .
On the Second Ballot, by which Douglas was
nominated, only twenty-four out of the thirty
three States voted at all. These States cast
votes out of the 25G to which they are
entitled. So that nine States were not repre
sented at all in this sectional Convention. Of
the twenty-four which were represented, only
nine cast their full vote. It is asking too
much of poor, woak human nature, to consid
er this a national convention. Compared with
the Chicago Convention, Lincoln received
more votes in Convention from Slave States
than Douglas, although only five Southern
States were represented at Chicago, while 8 of
15 were jn the Douglas Convention.
A Murderer's Confession. Tbe Rev. Ja
cob S. Harden, under sentence of death for
tbe murder of his wife, at Belvidere, New Jer
sey, has made a confession acknowledging bis
guilt. The administering of the poison to his
wife commenced on her return to Ramsey's,
and was given to her while sitting on his knee,
even during the endearments of an apparently
loving wife, ne kindly invited her to partake
of an apple on which he had spread arsenic.
She unsuspectingly eat it, remarking that it
appeared to have something gritty on it. He
replied that it was "nothing." .He will be
hung on Friday, the 6th of July.
Terrible Calamity. A correspondent of
the Syracuse Journal writes that, recently, Mr.
George Schwab, a wealthy and respectable
farmer, residing seven or eight miles north of
Newark, N. Y., was burning over a piece of
land- His two daughters being near the fire,
by some means it caught in .their clothes, and
before any assistance could be rendered, thev
were both burned in a most shocking 'manner.
One of them has since died of her injuries,
and it is said that the other must soon folio.
Later in the week, two fine horses belonging
to Mr. Scwab were killed by lightning.

Westmoreland Cocntt. A young man
named Neff, of West Newton, recently moul
ded Eight Thousand EighlHundred and Seventy
Eight Brick in one day ! This will be ac
knowledged an extraordinary day's .work,
but he is willing to undertake the moulding
of Ten Thousand from sun-up till sun-set. . . .
On Saturday, 24th of June, a little son of
Thomas Copeland, of Sewickly township, aged
about eight years, accidentally fell into the
Youghiogheny river, at Buena Vista, and be
fore he could be rescued was drowned. Every
effort that could be made by diving to recover
his body before life had fled was in vain. . It
was not found for about an hour, and when ta
ken out he was past resuscitation. ... Op the
22d, Mrs. White, an aged lady, of Unity town
sbip,wbile engaged in gathering some cherries
fell from the , tree, a distance of about eight
feet to the ground, and, in the tall, broke
both of her arms: . . ; Mr. Chris Shaffer, for
merly of Saltsburg, now residing at Carpen
ter's about thirteen miles west of Greensburg,
had.for .several years a negro man that was
notoriously addicted to drinking. This negro
was out at some gathering about three weeks
ago and returned home at night very much in
toxicated. He lay down as usual in the bar
room to sleep ; during the night time he took
fire, and before he could be awoke, all his
clothes were burnt off him, and tbe grease
melted out into the board where ho lay. When
he was pretty well: into a crisp, he awoke and
made a great noise, which raised Mr. Shaffer,
but he was so badly burned that he soon died
in great agony. Whether he took fire spon
taneously or from matches he was in the habit
of carrying in his pocket, is not known. . . .
The residence of Col. D. K. Marchand in
Greensburg, took fire on the 24th, and before
the flames could be extinguished sustained
damages amounting to $800 or $1000. ... On
the 17th, a severe hail storm passed over a
portion of this county. Mr. Cyrus Caven,
about 4 miles above Ligonier,had thirty sheep
killed by one flash of lightning one only of
the flock escaped.
Crawford County. On Thursday the 21st
June, Thomas Mosier, of Bloomfield township,
attempted the murder of his wife with an axe.
It seems that Mosier, who had been married
but several months, had parted from his wife ;
that in a short time they again got together;
that subsequently they parted a second time,
she returning to her parents. On Wednesday,
he came to tier father's residence staid over
night,and was about starting away in the mor
ning. ; He bad get as far the wood pile, and
was talking to her mother, when he saw bis
wife sitting at the window. He then took np
an old axe, and going round to the back door,
entered the room. On seeing him, she tried
to escape, but he knocked her down with the
axe, and afterward, repeated the blows three
times on her bead, injuring her so severely
that no hopes are entertained of her recovery.
Mosier was arrested and lodged in jail. ... On
the evening of the 21st. an affray took place
on LDestnut street, MeadviIIe, between Mr.
It. II. Guinmp, of the firm of Guinnip & Co
and Mr. Jno. W. Crocker, of Chatauque coun
ty, New York, in which the latter was danger
ously, pernaps latally wounded, by a shot m
the breast. The parties had a quarrel on the
day previous, bnt had been separated, and on
meeting the next evening, renewed the quar
rel. Guinnip delivered himself up, and was
admitted, to bail m $o,UUU. ... On the 19th.
a child of Mrs. Harrison, of Meadville, aged
about four years, fell into a large kettle of
boiling soap, and was so badly scalded that it
died shortly afterwards.
Potter County. During the thunder storm
of June loth, a frame house in Pleasant Val
ley township belonging to A. M. Bentonsq.,
and occupied by his brother, Samuel Benton,
was strucs by lightning and completely shat
tered, and yetnot set on fire. The lightning
entered the upper plate of the building at the
northwest corner and followed the plate to
the opposite corner where it seems to have di
vided into three bolts or forks, one going down
into the buttery, another to the kitchen, and
tbe other passing down and out of the end of
the building to the ground, where it tore up
tne turf tor some distance. Airs. Benton and
her children, together with Mr. Benton's
mother, were in the kitchen; and Mrs. B.
was shocked so badly by the lightning that
she was insensible for several hours, and is
still very weak.tbough going about the house.
The others were slightly benumbed. A firkin
of butter standing in the buttery, was si rip
ped of the hoops and staves, leaving the solid
cake of butter otherwise undisturbed. A gun
standing in the corner of the chamber where
the lightning entered the building is supposed
to have attracted it. . The building is a com
plete wreck. A shawl was set on fire but was
extinguished by a man who was present.
Centre County. Jacob Kepler, of Pino
Gtove Mills, whilst playing ball at Philipsburg
recently, took off his linen coat, in the pocket
ot wnicn he had $140, and laid in a desk in
the bar-room ; bnt when he came to put on the
coat, the money was missing. ... A young
man named Michael Canlanjas drowned at
Curtin's Ore Bank, near the4Coiling Spring,
week before last, whilst taking a bath. His
body was not recovered until next morning. . .
The shoe shop of Jesse Gillespie,of Jfellefonte,
was entered on the 18th, and 3 pairs of new
shoes stolen therefrom. Two pairs of the
shoes were afterwards recovered. No arrests
made.
Indiana County. On the 20th ult.,.a little
daughter of Thomas C. Hood, of White town
ship, was knocked down by a passing wagon,
and had one of her feet badly injured by being
tramped by one of the horses, . . . The weavil
has made its appearance in several localities
and some of the wheat fields have been badly
damaged by.tbe dej &kve insect. . . Mr.Mar
shall, of Indiana fjjngh-, has shipped this
season from that pRtCe,four hundred car loads
of bark to Pittsburgh. . . . Mr. John A. Bar
clay, of Centre township, has a calf, a cross of
the common Durham and English Durham,
which weighed, when about 15 hours old, one
hundred and five pounds !
The Naples correspondent of the Daily yews
writes as follows : "Everything wears a war
like aspect here, and there is no lack of ener
gy in making preparations for putting down
the almost universal rising of the nation.
Steamers come and go day and night ammu
nition in great abundance and provisions are
sent without ceasing ; and that there is any
necessity for the latter shows how completely

OBJECTIONS C0NSIDESED.
The terrific attacks made by the New York
Herald and journals of like principles, upon
the rails that Lincoln split thirty years
ago ; the home thrusts which have been made
at those pairs of mythical boots that were not
when be was a member of Congress, sent home
nnder his official frank ; the fearful onslanghts
that bis old flat-boat, has endured ; the hard
words that have been leveled at his mouth
nose, head, hair, legs, eyes : tbe objurgations
showered upon his height; the anathemas
hurled against his popular name among the
people, "Honest Old Abe" these ought to be
sufficient proof that in all the essentials that
make up a man fit for the Presidency, he so
well satisfies, the Democrats that they have
not a word of criticism or complaint. - We
have seen no allegations that he has not the
ability to fill with honor to himself and his
party, and with safety to his country, the high
place for which he is named. We have not
yet ascertained that there is a journal whose
editor is brazen enough to lay tbe charge of
dishonesty at bis door ; and surely, we do not
know tbe man who has the hardihood to al
lege that his every public act has not been
dictated by conscious patriotism. Nothing of
this sort. The quarrel thus far centres in his
accidents. He is too long ; he is ugly ; ho
has been por and humble ; he once thought
of becoming a blacksmith and pounding out
his fortune on the anvil ; he cannot make the
bow of a French dancing-master ; his learning
was acquired, not thrust upon him ; he has
never sought office ; he is an outsider and no
body supposed that he was in the !ine of pre
ferment. Such are the objections thus far de
Y.eloped. ; What there is in store in that mag
azine of lies of which the Sham Democrats
have the key, we who do not draw our arms
from there, cannot know. We submit, how
ever, that until his ability is disproved, his in
tegrity soiled, or his love of country success
fully questioned, the people will be justified
in believirgas they now do, that Lincoln is
the man of their choice. As in these he is
invulnerable, let us advise the Democrats to
keep firing away at the rails and the boots.
