Republican State Convention.
The ''Republican State Convention" will
meet at the "Ilerdic House," in Williams
port, on Wednesday, the 26th of June 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, ehosen in the usual way, and
equal in number to the whole of the Sena
tors and Representatives in the General As
sembly. By order of the State Central Com
mittee. F. Jordan, Chairman.
-. Is it a Finality ?
The Philadelphia North American , speak
ing of the present cry of "a finality," says
there is no difficulty in receiving members
from the reconstructed States on the Lasis
of the reconstruction act, but objects to the
prospect of their being brought in, or act
ing in Congress, as a bar to future legisla
tion, and says :
"We do not intend to surrender our right
to pass the Wilson suffrage bill, that will
enfranchise the colored men of such States
as Kentucky, Delaware and Maryland, and
Mr. Frelinghuvsen's own -State, New Jer
sey. We do not mean to give up, without
a struggle, the great principle that the na
tion should guarantee an education to all its
citizens. And if the landed aritocraey
shall tifl come out of the furnace of recon
struction as strong as ever, we wish it to be
understood now that some remedy for the
land monopoly is indispensable."
One Congress cannot bind another on any
public question. Each Congress has full
power to act for itself, so long as it confines
its action within the limits of the constitu
tion "as it is,"when they assemble. Hence,
whatever legislation the next Congress may
deem essential to the peace and prosperity of
the country, it can enact, if in conformity to
the organic law of the land. Then, should
the incoming Congress see fit to pass other
laws, aside from the recent reconstruction
act, in relation to the late rebellious States,
we presume they have the power to do so.
But, will Congress exercise this rigLt?
Jury Commissioners to be Elected.
An act passed by the last Legislature,
which became a law by the Governor's sig
nature on April 15th, 1367, having for its
object the better and more impartial selec
tion of jurors in each of the counties of
of this State. The first section of the law
is as follows t
"That at the general election to be held
on the second Tuesday of October, Anno
Domini one thousand eijiht hundred and
sixty-seven, and" tri-ennially thereafter, at
such election, the qualified electors of the
several counties of this Commonwealth shall
elect, in the manner now provided by law,
lor the election of other county officers, two
sober, intelligent and judicious persons, to
serve as jury commissioners in each of said
counties for the period of three years ensu
ing their election ; but the same person or
persons, shall not be eligible for re-election
more than once in any period of six years :
IVovitleJ, That each of said qualified dec
ors, shall vote for one person only as jury
commissioner; and the two persons having
the greatest number of votes for jury com
missioner shall be only elected jury commis
ioner for such county."
The pay of jury commissioner is fixed at
two dollars and fifty cents per day, and four
cents per mile circular from residence to
Court House. The penalty for neglecting
or refusing to attend to. the duties of the
office is a fine of one hundred dollars.
"What They Think.
The London correspondent of the New
York. Herald says the cession of Russian
America to the United States is a topic far
more talked about in Europe thau it is here,
and to European nations it appears to meau
far more than we seem to think in the Uni
ted States. The former reject the consider
ation of furs and fish, "and discuss the
probability of an alliance offensive and de
fensive between the United States and Rus
sia, and the advantages of the loan of an
American fleet to Russia in case of a gen
eral European war, which seems probable
at no distant day; for peace conferences
usually lead directly to war, as medicines
sometimes make the patient more instantly
i'l." m
Important from Mexico. Thd follow
ing despatch has been received from Presi
dent Juarez : "Quaretaro has fallen by the
force of arms, this morning, (Mav loth.)
Maximilian," Mcjia, Castilla and Miramon
are prisoners."
A woman named Whitmyer, who was
watching an alley, axe in hand, to strike a
mad dog, at Philadelphia, on Friday morn
ing, April 36th, was shot and instantly
killed by a man who shot at the dog and
hit the woman.
An Appeal to Republicans.
, The national Republican Executive Com
mittee,., having determined to thoroughly
canvass the Southern Stntes, during the en
suing sum (i.er,'; has issued an address to the
members of the party throughout the Union,
asking for contributions to aid them in the
prosecution of the work they have under
taken the contributions to be sent to Gov.
Marcus L. Ward, Chairman and Treasurer,
Newark, N. J. The Committee contem
plates sending a large number of speakers
thither, as well as to circulate documents,
to aid the Southern masses to correctly un
derstand their relation to the government,
to fully comprehend their present social du
ties, and to extend the Republican organi
zation throughout all the Southern State's.
Iu referring to this subject, the Pittsburg
Gazette remarks as follows:
"The determination of the Republican
Executive Committee to extend the o'.gani
zation of their party throughout the South
ern States, is not received with favor by
Democrats, either there or here. We did
not expect it would be. They want still to
be able to allege t! at the Republican party
is sectional; and to monopolize the votes of
the blacks. The conception is adapted to
their purposes; but it cannot be realized.
In prosecuting the work upon which it has
entered the National Committee ought, and
doubtless will, exercise a sound judgment in
selecting men to represent the party before
Southern audiences. It is desirable that in
respect to principles and purpose nothing
should be concealed. Perfect frankness
should be displayed.' On the part of the
blacks, groundless expectations should not
be excited. On the part of the whites,
needless prejudices and antipathiess hould
not be engendered. The people of the
two sections have common interests, a
common country, and are to share a com
mon destiny. The sooner they can be made
to understand each other, the better all
round. A very few years will work great
changes in sentiment and opinion among all
classes. The Republican party will take
root in the South, and flourish abundantly.
It will not be confined mainly to the blacks.
Its principles will commend it to the wliites;
and as present exasperations die out as die
out they will everywhere ambitious young
men, leaving the traditions of their fathers,
will identify themselves with the new move
ment, which embodies and represents the
best aspirations of the nineteenth century."
Will it be Done ?
The idea that the cession of Canada to
the United States is not only easily attaina
ble but that it is in some way or otherjro
ing, sooner or later, to be'-fcrought about,
prevails quite extensively in well informed
English circles. Says a London letter:
"Certain English statesmen, also, profess
to regret that Russian America has antici
pated them in the real estate business.
They sa3' that it would have been possible,
by a transfer of Canada to the United
States, or by simply acquiescing in a peace
able annexation, to have settled the Alaba
ma claims without paying a single penny.
Is it too late for such a proposition ? Those
who discuss the matter hope not; but, on
the contrary, they -expect, alter waiting a
reasonable time, to obtain for Canada as
good a price as Russia got for her icebergs.
Canada is of no u.-e to great Britain, and
Uis, in tact, an expensive burden, and if it
can be got rid of in this wav bv settlinc: the
i Alabama claims and giving John Hull a lit-
tie hard ca.-h into the bargain, everbody
J hero will be pleased."
According to this London letter-writer,
Mr. Seward would have little difficulty in
! purchasing another "slice" of real estate,
! on the North of us. Will he doit? We
will wait and see.
"Who h Responsible- ?
The N. Y. Times though not vl.iching
for the truth of the statement understands
"from what ought to le good authority, as
oming directly from Chief Justice Chase
himself, that he was not in any way a party
to the release of Jefferson Davis on bail,
lie knew nothing whatever of Judge Un
derwood's intention, was not consulted by
him on that su'yeet, but fully expected that
the trial would take place, and that he him
self would preside at it. Nor is he now a
ware of the reasons which led to a different
result. J udge Underwood acted in the mat
ter wholly on his own responsibility so far
at least as any persons officially connected
with the government were concerned." It
begins to look as though nobody had any
thing to do with the proceeding that is,
nobody who is willing to confess it to the
full extent.
The Crops. There is a strong concur
rence of testimony, as to the unprecedented
breadth and promise of the wheat crop.
The weather has been and is favorable for
it ; but rot so well for corn. Still, there is
abundant time yet for that unless, indeed,
the coming autumn sball be cold and un
propitious, as the last, was. In sonic places
the fruit ha3 suffered some. Nevertheless,
the indications are pretty general for a boun
titul yield. . -
The bankrupt law will go into operation
on the first day of June. Under it, impris
onment for debt ceases throughout ail the
States and Territories. By it all stay laws,
preferences, voluntary agreements, and se
cret attachments are set aside. Five hun
dred dollars' worth of household furniture,
the wearing apparel of each family, and
such other property as is by law exempted
in the different States, can be held by the
debtors.
Mad Dogs. Eleven children were bitten
a few days ago iu one school district, in
Morthampton county, by a mad dog, and
our exchanges report several deaths by Hy
drophobia in all parts of the State.
Woman's crowning glory her bonnet.
Precious small glory now-days.
' How it is Received. . .
C It is worth while to note how the bailing
of Jeff. Davis is received at the South.
The Richmond Whigs?'.
"The generous course pursued toward
Mr." Davis yesterday was one of the most
effective reconstruction steps yet taken. It
was indeed a stride in that direction. But
the legal action taken was not all that we
feel called upon to notice. That action was
accompanied and embellished by circum
stances of courtesy and cordial generosity
from Northern and Republican gentlemen
of distinction and influence, which will go
far to commend them to the grateful con
sideration of the South. They joined our
own Virginians in both bail-bonds and con
gratulations. In so doing, they illustrated
their magnanimity, and in one moment lev
eled barriers that might have . remained for
years."
The Lynchburg Virginian says:
"An obstacle in the way of reconstruction
has been broken down ; a id the Federal
Court at Richmond did more yesterday
towards healing the wounds of the nation
and restoring good will and harmony than
has ever been done before. We hail the
event as an auspicious one, fraught with
good, and recognize the present as a fortu
nate time for both sections of the Union to
set out with a new purpose to bury their
animosities and meet together on a common
ground of justice, peace and lratermty."
If the people of the South shall generally
accept the release of Mr. Davis in that
spirit, who shall say that Mercy and Mag
nanimity may not win a victory equal to
that gained ly Courage and Endurance on
the battle-field?
Rattier Pointed. Stevens, of the Tid
ioute Journal, is a brick. He thus pitches
into one ot the air sex in his locality: "The
lady (?) who yesterday called the attention
of another to our patched breeches, where
at they both laughed so heartily, is informed
that a new pair will be purchased when her
husband s 'little bill' is settled ; it has been
due us nearly a year. Note 1. When you
speak disparagingly of a passer-by, and do
not wish to be overheard, talk low. 2. Do
not criticise the printer's dress too closely
while you are wearing silks purchased with
money due him. 3. Tell your husband to
send us $2 70 at once: and save the cost of
an entire suit."
Indiana Cocntv. A most distressing
and terrible accident occurred at the stoam
saw mill of Spears & Co. , iu the village of
Homer, on Friday morning, May 17th. A
young man named Alexander Shoupe, aged
18 years, who had just commenced work at
the mill that morning, in attempting to
take a plank off the saw frame, was caught
by the large circular saw, and in an instant
was literally cut to pieces. Both legs, both
arms and the whole upper part of the head
were severed from the body.
Publish Them. The State Superintend
ent of Common Schools states that the sec
tion of the law requiring shool directors to
publish an annual statement of the receipts
aud expenditures of their respective dis
tricts, is as obligatory upon the boards as
tic section requiring them to keep open
schools, and a neglect to perform this duty
according to law, will subject directors to
removal by the courts, the same as the neg
lect of any other duty required by law.
Attention! Mossop, a3 usual, is receiv
ing a very large and well selected lot of
seasonable goods, which he is offering for
sale at the very lowest prices for cash. Buy
ers are requested to call and examine his
stock, as he hopes to be able to please all
who may favor him with their custom.
Mossop has the reputation of selling as cheap,
if not a little cheaper, than any body else 'n
the county a fact which should, at least, in
duce an examination of his goods.
Jefferson County. Charles Chase,
alius Charles Winton, was tried at Brook
ville, week before last, for the murder of
Mrs. Elizabeth McDonald, on the 19lli of
last February. On Saturday afternoon,
May l'Sth. the case was submitted to the
jury, Mho, after a deliberation of 27 hours,
returned a verdict of "guilty of murder in
the first degree." On Monday morning
the Court sentenced the prisoner to be
hanged. ,
Marble Yard. By reference to our ad
vertising columns it will be seen that John
and Henry Guclich-have established an ex
tensive Marble Yard in this place, and are
now prepared to execute all work in their
line of business. A marble yard is some
thing that has long been needed in this
county, and it is to be hoped that our citi
zens will give the enterprise the encourage
ment that it deserves. N
Elk County. On the 16th of. May, the
