    CALL OP THE

tt will be seen, by tho abjuined proceeding,'
that the Democratic State Central Committee!
have promptly performed a aolcnin and impor
'tant duty. Their action will, beyond all doubt
meet the cordial approbation of the whole party
ADDRESS
(ir Hie State Central Commiflee.
To the Democracy of Pennsylvania !
It has becomehe painful duty of the Demo
cratic State Central Committco to announce to
their fellow-citiscns the death of their distin
wished candidate, HENRY A. MUHLEN
BERG. In tho midst of his family, surrounded
by liie friend, and apparently eijoying a vigo
rous health, he was suddenly struck down by
apoplexy late in the evening of Saturday, the
10th of August, 1911, and soon ceased to exist.
His kindred have lost a cherished object of af
fectionate veneration his country has lost one.
of her wisest, purest and most useful sons and
his republican associates havo lost a champion
of whose private virtues they were proud, and
under whose auspices they were harmoniously
hastening Jo achieve a great political triumph
A calamity such as this must be impressive
'to all. Let ms not, however, usurp the right
"which belongs to others, of adequately doing
hnnortothe memor of the deceased. Let us
remember that we have peculiar and sacred du
ties to discharge, which no regrets or sympa
tics, however profound, should be permitted to
interrupt or retard.
Your committee having rapidly met on thin
distressing occasion, and having carefully con
sidered the nature and extent of their- powers,
came to the unanimous conclusion that it was
incumbent upon them, without delay, to call to
gether again, at this place, and at the earliest
practicable period, the Democratic Convention
held on the 4th of March luet. Sufficient time
yet remains to enable this representative body
to ascertain, and formally to announce the sen
timents of their constituents, in obsignating, as
a substitute fur the lamented Muhlenberg, a
Democratic candidate for the Chief Executive
office of the State. TIkj following was there
fore adopted :
Resolved, That the afflicting decease of Hen
ry A. Muhlenberg be forthwith announced to!
the Democracy of Pennsylvania, and that the
snembers of the Democratic Convention held on
the 4th of March last, be earnestly requested,
to re-assemble at Harrisk-urrr, on MON
DAY, the ad of SEPTEMBER, 1944, at
10 o'clock, A. M., to nominate candidate for
the office of Governor.
Democrats! it is in exigencies such as the
present, that your devotion to the cause of Li
berty and your Country, and your unconquera
ble energies can be bust exhibited ! Let every
man now, in this hour of affliction, show the
spirit that is in him ! A good and glorious lea
Jer has fallen as he was conducting you to vic
tory ! Let your own ranks supply his place,
nd without making a single halt, press onward
to the success before you.

The Central Committee have deemed it their
duty to adopt, without delay, the necessary!
measures for the re-assembling of the Conveii-V

in an emergency so pressing, and in an interval
no limited previous to the election. As a mem

Incompetent of V.tn, Marklc.
At meeting recently held in South Hunting
don township, Westmoreland county, the resi
fence of Gen. Markle, the Whig nominee for
Governor, the following resolutions declaring his
utter incompetency, were adopted. The testi
mony is highly important, coming as it does from
the immediate neighbors of, and those who best
know Gen. Markle :
Resolved, That although many of us are per
sonally friendly and near neighbors, and are all
fellow citizens of tho same township with Gen
eral Markle, wis cannot arrroRT him for Go
vmson, and when the ballot box speaks it will
be found that a large majority of citizen ofthit
township eoncur in thi$ opinion
Resolved, That the fact of the Federal nominee
for Governor, who has twice been beaten in his
own county, once for the Lcgislaturcand once for
Congress, and the fact of his falling "behind his
federal colleague in his own township for the
Legislature, shows clearly, that they who know
him best CONSIDER HIM WHOLLY UNFIT,
TO FILL THE EXECUTIVE CHAIR
Resolved, That we will give our hearty sup
port to Henry A. Muhlenberg "the favorite son
of Democratic Berks, for the office of Governor
becanse he is fully competent becanse the in
tegrity of his private life is unimpeachable and
because his political principles are those ef

scheme, the United States Bank.

What course will Mr. Polk take in relation

this question we have his own declaration and
pledge;

charter such a bank, and if it did, it would, in
my opinion, be inexpedient to txcrciseit."

Almost every day, in this region, the solemn
truth is brought home, to us that "in the midst

"The spiders most attenuated thread,
Ts cord, is cable, toman's hold on earthly bliss. "
Few men have more "hair breadth's escapes,"!
or are more continually exposed to casualties,
accidents and sudden death than our miners
"There is danger in the mines." The conse
pience of danger may, it is true, sometimes be
averted by carefulness. But more frequently
the accident is sudden almost as the lighting
stroke; before a cloud has cast the gloom of its
shadow to warn, the victim has fallen. We havcj
this week to notice one of these melancholy and
lisastrous occurrences, which took place at
MessTs. Milnes & Spencer's mines, on "Friday
night last, at ahont 10 o'clock, hy which three1
men, Hknrv Fox, Jonathan Nixon and John

the water however from above, from some canse
or other, forced itself through and instantaneously
filled the mines, burying the unfortunate men in
an accumnlationof coal and dirt more than three
hundred feet below the surface. The accident is
described as having been sudden and startling;
the man at the Engine heard a rumbling, rush
ing noise ; the Engine stopped and the buildings
trembled as if convulsed by an earthquake in a
minute all was quiet again. He attempted to

three hundred feet of water. It is supposed that
this water must have forced itself through a fis
