Tho Ciermantown Telegraph, a ahort timo since,
announced that Gov. Porter had pardoned the Me
Mcnnahans, The Governor was accordingly de

"The Governor, it was understood, had a per

whic h he adminibtered to him in a Tempeiance
i onvenuon at iiammurg, some lime ago, and
hence would rejoice at the opportunity of re
taliating in ihis way."
Now this is not only mean and contemptible,
but villainous. Gov. Poller is firbt charged with
hiving committed an improper act, and when the
charge is fonnd to be untrue hs ia insulted for not
having done sn, by impeaching his motives. Let

ffj The Whig Convention, for the nomination
of Canal Coinminionei, met at H-iriisbuig. on Ihe
6th in. I., and nominalcd Wm Tweed of Northum
Ibutnbirlaiid county, Simeon Guilford uf Lebanon,
and Benjamin W raver of Allegheny counties. Mr
Guilfoid, was formerly an engineer on the Penn
sylvania Canal, and did not leave the service with
any great rredit. With Mr Wriver, we are not ac

aa an hnnett and able man, and is, we plenums,
worth both ihe others.

John t'etlit, as a sort of political dictator in
northern Indiana, and who was aspiring for the
Democratic nomination for Congress in his
district We kept our eje on the political
movements in that quarter, and sure enough,
we found that John 1'ettitdid receive the nomi
nation of the Convention by a decided majority
over all the candidates. During tho whole
time, we felt a great curiosity to know if this
John Pettit was not our old fellowstudcnt. A
day or two since, wo met with a gentleman
from Lafayette, w ho informs us that be is the
same genius the very identical cross-eyed
John Pettit who made that prayer. Ue is
now considered one of the ablest and soundest
lawyers in Indiana, and was, we believe, United
