In th It number of 7 1 Atltghnnian I per
celvts that a young man, who has beeome
ti.th.er highly elated, from the f-ut of belnsr
(unc xpcciodir of course) plctd attbdheadof
tha Peopled Purty of Cambria Ceuuty, under
tsvkei tu write a htsto-y of a part of tLo pro
ceedings of our late Conveatlou. The Chair
man of the County Committee ha nlwajs
been considered a modest young- gt-atlercan,
nnd many of hl3 femur frleadi were no little
ajtonished to find nl3 name appended to au
ori!!iKl coruaiunication of a columu and a
iirtlf. No one doubts his ability to write his
name au 1 wrl:e it well, UP. everybody doubts
the fact of his being abio to compose even as
poorly gotten up ;;u article as the one which
appeared in the last Alleghanian." Be this
as it may, it is not my busiuess to find fault
with the z'yh of the eo:nmkieut;on, but it is
with its grout mrsrrrrreterttulioTii that I take is
sue, and my only object shall be to correct
them, nnd exhibit to the people of my native
County, the studied effort of Mr. Roberts to
place rac in a false position.
He starts out by saying! am circulating the
report that I was cheated out of the nomination
by the Clerks. This is a flight mistake. I
never made such a statement, and w ould soon
er be defeated than be guilty of even intima
ting that an honorable and high-minded man,
such as 1 know Win. M. Jones to be, would
wiliinyly or knowingly cheat any man under
any t iicumst. usees. 1 know it was no act of
his to be associated with Mr. Roberts, as Clerk
of the lat; Convention, and no man, who knows
Mr. Jones, would for a moment supprsethat
he would or could approve of the means used
by sonic iiieu to defeat my nomination.
Mr. Roberts acknowledges that he kept no
tally on the first ballot for Register and Re
corder, yet he asserts, of hin own hnouledje,
therfl were fifty -five votes polled. Mr. Jones,
w ho kept the tally, several delegates, and ma
ny spectators who ulso kept it, made only
fifty-three. Will Mr. R. please inform the
public how he knows a thing about which he
knows nothing at all ? WL1 he also please to
state why he informed the President that au
error had been committed? (u this point I
would like for him to be candid. "An honest
confession is good for the soul," and if he is
as candid as he ought to be, I know he must
admit that sny vote o:i the f.rt ballot was an
noying to !;i;n, and rather spoiled some nice
arrangements, previously niitrle, by which a
certain defcuted aspirant for the c-moiuinc nts
of the Prothonotary's oflice, espected to be
come a Compromise Candidate for Register
and Recorder.
He admits that only fifty-four votes were
polled on the first two bi.llots for Poor House
Director, and it is well-known that only forty
sit were polled for Auditor. On these ballots
Mr. R. kept the tally himself, nnd yet he says
nothing about informing the President of an
error having brcn committed. 1 did not hap
pen to be a candidate for either of those offices,
and consequently Mr. Roberts' keen perception
did not enable him to discover anything wrong
in less than a full vote being polled for any
office except that of Register and Recorder.
Honest men will draw their own conclusion
from the foregoing premise-?.
Again. Le states that Mr. I.ytle's nomination
was made ti:iauimons and, for fear that his
st ry will m.t be credited, he repeats the same
thing in ihf same column of his learnt pro
duction. I am at a loss to know wnat Diction
ary Mr. Roberts consulted, to ascertain the
meaning of the word unanimous. Itcertainly
was not Walker's, Johnson's or Webster's, but
must have beeu a new work, which is about
to be issued by Campbell, Roberts, & Co., in
which the old meaning of the word is s.
. hanged thit many delegates may vote 'No''
very emphatically, in a Convention, nnd yet
the iiominalion be considered unanimous.
Again, he says 1 came into the Convention
with a petition, &c. How docs he know this'.'
Did be ;ce nie do so? If so. he saw w hat no
other person saw, or could see. If he did not
year. No wonder the country is disgusted i typographical appearance, but by some sin- see me come in with it. why does he say he

Breckenridge men in all parts cf the
county, seem dcterudned to make a bold
stand for the young Kentuekian That
the Brcekeimdgc party will nominate a

as in no oiher way can the relative strength
of the two wings be so well tested the
contest being, of course, more for the pur
pose of maintaining the real organization,
than with a view to success.
What tends to make this family dispute
the more interesting, is the fact that the
Loco-Foco Press, like the party, is divided
upon the subject. The editors of the L ho
and the-JlounUtuieer all Douglas to the
core are pitching into the seccuers and
the Brtckeuiidge men generally, in a man
ner which, of a truth, is "fierce for to be

It would be worse thau idle for us to say
that we look en all thie with indifTeruce;
it would be untrue. Of course, we look
on and enjoy it, aud enly hep that it may
continue. But let us admonish our friends
cf the People's Party, that loth these
ronteudiug elements arc the enemies of
stand justified. Freedom lives much more
in the spirit of a people thau in the forms
of a government. Wc shall receive the
plaudits of brave men for preserving free
dom, and not reproaches, for shattering a
despotism. We of the South have done
everything to preserve the Union. We
have yielded everythiugbut our honors.
Let us yield that only as an enemy yields
his banner."
All this would be tsirifyincr if it were
not so very btale. It lacks the charm of
novelty, however, and therefore alarms no
body. South Carolina has been playin"
the dog barking at the moon for so many
years that we wonder that she docs not de

lie should do this. I ain running as au Inde
pendent Candidate, and hae none of the ad
vantages usually supposed to follow from a
regular nomination, and wili likely need all
the help I can get. My enemies are very con
fident 1 can't get 5o0 votes in the County. To
be elected, I will need more votes, and 1 know
no l etter way to get them, than for Mr. Rob
erts and his boon companions to go on in the
good w ork lh y have so earnestly commenced.
I would suggest to them that tht y still stick to
their old text. Don't forget to cstensiveiy
circulate the story that I was always a Demo
crat, until within the last IS months. True,
the old citizens who have known roc from boy
hood, won't believe it, but then there are a
good many di mocrats' w ho have only been a
few veers in the County, and you may induce
them to vote for me. Again, many Republi
cans, who ha e btcu here only a lew years,
may believe jou- beautiful romance, and may
vote for me, to keep me from going back to
my first love. Don't forget to tell everybody
that, three y cars ago. 1 opposed Wm. E. Fra
zcr, for Canal Commissioner, because he was
one of the members of our rotate Senate who
voted agaiiist keeping open the Western divis
ion of the Canal and did all he knew how to
swindle the honest tax-payers out of the Main
Line, and make a present of it to the Penna.
R. R Co. Don't forget to tell everybody that
1 opposed both Jacob M. Campbell and Louis
W. Hall in their efforts to get to the State
Senate, from the fact that I knew they were in
favor of releasing the Ptnna. R. R. Co. from
the performance of its solemn contract, ma
king them a present of hundreds of thousands
of dollars annually out of our Suite Treasurv,
and increasing the taxes of the people to sup
ply the deficiency. Don't forget to do all this,
and should 1 then be defeated, 1 certainly wiii
not blame you with it.
There i re many other things to which I
would like to refer, but for want of time I will
not do so now. If the man who writes Mr.

to do so as 1 would be to eat when I am

MoVEMENTS OF TI1E ClI.VMI'iO.N. Mr.
John C. Heeuan has been engaged to give
a scries of pugilistic exh ibitic ns in the
principal cities of the Union. It is said
that the speculators who have secured the
star of the ring arc Messrs. Heury Wood
and Benj. Wood. Macdouald, Ned Price,
James Cusac, and a number of other cel
ebrated professional pugilists, have been
alsc engaged to accompany Heecan, and
participate in the fistic exercises. The
terms ol the agreement are as follows :
lleenan is to have SI, 000 a week for
twelve weeks, at the end of which time
he is to be presented with a diamond piu
worth SI, 000. Macdonald has refused
to ng ige for a longer time than six weeks
for which he is to have S2,OU0. Mr. E.
K. Price of Boston, who is, probably, the
most accomplished professor in sparvin
in America, is of nearly the weight and
height of Tom Savers, and a mimic com
bat between him and lleenan would be
no Lad imitation of the "international"
fitrht at Faruborough. The line of travel
of this distinguished party will compre
hend all the principal cities of the United
States, beginning, of course, with New
York. The first exhibition was to be
given at the New Bowery Theater on
Monday.
