Eepublican. State Convention.
The "Republican State Convention" will
meet at the "Herdic House," in Williams
port, on Wednesday, the 26th of J une next,
' at 10 o'clock, A. M. , to nominate a candidate
for Judge of the Supreme Court, and to in
itiate proper measures for the ensuing State
canvass. As heretofore, the Convention will
be composed of Representative and Senato
rial Delegates, chosen in the usual way, and
equal in number to the whole of the Sena
tors and Representatives in the General As
aenibly. By order of the State Central Com
mittee. F. Jordan, Chairman.
, Ecrope. Late news by the Atlantic Ca
ble would indicate the adjustment of the
Luxumbourg question between Prussia and
France, by the mediation of the other great
powers in Europe. But, whether this effort
.will result in a permanent peace, or whether
. it will only have the effect to postpone the
commencement of actual hostilities, remains
to be seen the latter being most probable.
That Europe is ripe for a revolution, ad
mits of no serious doubt, and it is hard to
conjecture what a day may brings forth.
Should the proposed mediation result very
unfavorable to the aspirations, or anticipa
tions of either Napoleon or Bismark, as a
last resort, the disappointed ruler may raise
the banner of universal freedom and declare
for a republic in every kingdom of the Old
World; and then, all the continent would
rock, and bayonets in a moment flash from
the Atlantic to the plains of Asia.
How It Works. In Chicago and other
places where the eight hour agitation has
been successful, the consequent reduction of
wages is causing a great deal of dissatisfac
tion among the mechanics whom it affects.
The ship carpenters, for instance, lo nut
relish the diminution of their earnings from
four dollars to three and a quarter per day.
They seem to have imagined that they would
be paid the same for eight as for ten hours'
work, and that they were gaining a gaeat
advantage at the expense of the employers.
Their expectations have not been realized.
Manufacturing and railroad companies have
given-notice that henceforth they will hire
laborers by the hour at the same rates as
heretofore, and this counter check effectual
ly neutralizes the object sought to be gained
by the original movement,
Spain.- It is announced that a new re
belliou ha3 broken out in Spain, but the in
telligence is too indefinite to admit of any
speculations at present as to itsmagnitude
or results ; yet, it would excite but little
surprise, if the present outbreak would be
the Instigation of a grand revolutionary up
rising in that country, which would result in
an entire change of government, and the
flight of the last reigning Bourbon. That
the Queen of Spain has anticipated such a
denouement, is apparent from the fact that
she some time since sent her jewels and a
large amount of money to England the re
fuge of fugitive sovereigns. Further news
from Spain will be anxiously looked for.
Mexico. Notwithstanding the contradic
tory character of the news from Mexico, e
nough of the truth is known to make it evi
dent that the Empire is at tn end, and that
Maximilian will be fortunate if he succeeds
in escaping the toils of the Liberals with a
whole skin. It is said, the moment Juarez
occupies the City of Mexico,Minister Camp
bell will be instructed to go thither, and the
recognition of the Liberals as the constitu
tional government of Mexico will be contin
ued, despite the efforts being made at Wash
ington to force the claims of Ortega upon
the notice of the administration.
Compelling: a Body of Firemen para
ding the streets of a Southern vity to dis
play in their line the American flag, is re-
. -garded by Copperheads as a great outrage
on the rights, preferences and feelings of
the chivalry of theSouth. It is unconsti
tutional. It is an act of radical tyranny
sufficient to provoke another rebellion, and
. unless the President interferes to prevent a
repetition of the outrage, the Democracy of
the North will march South (as they went to
Canada) to aid their Southern brethren in
resisting their oppressors.
The three-per cent certificates authorized
by the act of March 2, 1S67, will not be is
sued before August The compound-interest
notes falling due in June and July will
- likely De redeemed in money at maturity.
Bail to the amount of one hundred thou
sand dollars for the release of Jeff Davis will
le tendered, Augustus Scheli and Horace
Greeley becoming securities.
Starvation, over nice. A contempo
rary says, the starvation point that has been
renrheA in South. Carolina is evidently only
.i.: tu. ,.f (,n.;ni wlii. h nn ',
longer admits of ftidiou,e in the choice I
of food has not yet been arrived at. They
are hungry, but some delicacy of appetite
yet remains. Thus, for instance, General
Sickles Writing to the Chairman of the
Southern Relief Committee in Boston,
ays : "If you send corn meal let me sug
gest that you send white meal: for white
persons will not eat yellow meal. It is only
given nere to cat tie, an even mcv.
people refuse it." When we call to mind
what Union soldiers, who crowded the rebel
prison pens at Salisbury and Andersonville,
had to feed upon in their extremity, it cer-
taiuly requires some stretch of charitable
feeling to arouse anything like sympathy
for people who are so very particular about
the quality of the alms they beg for.
What ocr Territorv Cost. The fol
lowing shows the succession in which we ac
quired our territorial possessions, with a
statement of what the domain cost :
1. The purchase of Louisiana and the
Mississippi Valley, in lslM, lroui ! ranee,

2. The purchase of Florida, in 1819, from

for $10,000,000.
G. The purchase of the immense Russian

from the North Pole to 54 north latitude, at
the rate ot 3 cents per acre.
A Congressional inquiry into the facts
connected with the capture of Jeff. Davis
ful v confirmed the reuort that he was dis
cuised in female garments when taken, lie
hfd on a ladv 8 water-proot cloak, pathered
at the waist, and a shawl drawn over ni:
head. He carried a tin pail upon his hea:
as if going for water. A pair of top-boots,
winch the cloak did not hide, betrayed mm
We believe that the whole party of cx
rebels have quaked more in their souls at
the probable testimon' as to Jeff's disguise
when captured, than at the iWea of having
the old traitor hung. How are you, chiv
alry ?.

The Copperhead organs which have re

intelligence. It is more than probable that
Jeff will be one of the principal orators em

future elections in the interest of the latter

For once the President and Congress, as
well as the Supreme Court, seem to be of

with some refractory Republicans, during the
past six months, but, it seems, he has beaten his

Banner is a good paper, and merits a liberal sup

that the Anglo-American Company will be

that the registers under General Sheridan

also of the opinion that Congress did not
