The Convention was composed main
ly of men who acquired what " distinc
tion" tbry oily possess through their
services in the cause of proscriptive
"Sam" and disunion "Rambo," and the
ticket made up is of the sort we ex
pected at the hands of such piebald
politicians. It is intimated that the
whole affair wits "cut and dried" by the
wlre-pullers riasembled at " head-qufir
/Ars " before the in:cling of the Con
040.i..ion—just to Gaye t h at body the

the empty honors of the nominations:

Irstractor--Ssmuel Herbst, Gettysburg.
Aeditur—Juba itrinkenhoff, Strabsu.
kithrard Ilaqtertuu roeunnueuded for Col:l
-ive/int.
That this ticket is not, calculatod to
inspire enthesiasto among any portion
of its supporters, we cart well believe.
Indeed it is said that had as much been
known to the delegates of several of the
nominees before the Convention as after,
the ticket would not be made up as it
is. Some of its weak points are rery
weak.
After the Convention had endorsed
the selections of the " managers," L. I
A. Buehler, Esq., read a long string of
characteristic resolutions, with huvibuy
"sticking out" from their beginning to
their ending. For instance, after saying ,
crushingly severe things in regard to
national " expenditures," " Kansas,"
and so on, the first resolution declares
that "it is the solemn and imperative
duty of all good citizens to unite, cor
dially and earnestly, without regard to
former party differences, in a common
effort to rescue the Government
from the false position in which it
has been placed, and to restore the
purity and excellence of its early ad
ministration Older the Fatheri of the
Republic."
That's precisely what these very
trickaters professed to be desirous of
doing when they started Know Noth
ingism—" to restore the purity and ex
cellence of its early administration un
der the Fathers of the Republic "—but
what was the result I Wherever dark
lanternism got into power, extrava
gance, peculation, and fraud, with out
rage and murder, were the orderer the
day—the like of which was never heard
of before.
To say the least of it, the resolution
is cool—too bare-faced to deeeive the
most shallow. The rest of the series
aro about ditto. All from the same
souroe—which is sufficient, comment.
The so-called "People's Party" is
making a poor start of it in Adams
county (as every•wher^e else). The
REAL pr.OPLH do not seem to desire that
the wool should be pulled over their
eyes at this particular juncture.
Wstch Them I
itirTho Know Nothing and Black
Republican leaders fool the weakness of
their party in this county. They know
that of iteelf, destitute of principle or
political standing, not a morsel of the
" spoils" can be secured. Their game,
then, as indications already show, is to
make A "dead set" at all Democrats
whom they may consider "a little
weak," and by misrepresentations and
downright falsehoods, (as well as the
increasod circulation of their unprinci

says, a Repnblican meeting was held at
Wellaboro*, Tiuga county, on the '... 5 15t,
ult.,wluch was addressed by Wilmot,{
Grow and Williston. These speakers,
who are all afflicted with the most ma•
lignant form of negrophobia, of course
discoursed the horrors of slavery and
declaimed against the monstrous ag
gressions of the odious "slave aristocrat-
cy." They are all masters of that epo
des of cant, which still passes current
in that benighted region. At the close
of the exercises, a resolution was offered
endorsing the tnion State ticket, arid
after an unavailing attempt to stifle ita
consideiation on the ground that the
meeting was purely local, the resolution
was put to vote, and met with a prompt
and emphatic negatire ! What is 'the
matter with the straight-out Republi
cans? Are they disgusted with the milk
and water resole Lions passed by the mon
grel convention, because they do not
smack strongly cnongh of the Attie:in,
or aro they outraged at an alliance with
the detestable "Americans?" Wilmot,
who thought this meeting of sufficient
importance to desert the bench m order
that it might be graced witliNkis pre&
once, must certainly have the mest, fra
term! and affectionate recolleetion of
the straight-out Americans.' Is this
treason? Can any one explai4?
Not well Pleased.
The' Republieune of Tioga county,
says the Agitator, are not satisfied with
the "neutral" character of the platform
of the late mongrel Convention at liar
risburg. That. paper 4' pitches in" as
follows :
"Some time since we took occasion
to say to our fusion canemporaries that
the Convention would not dare to deal
with living qtkations. Look at that
platform ; read it carefully ; weigh it;
analyse it; bull ne—what relationship
does it, hold to the Philadelphia Plat
form! Is it child, grandchild, stepchild,
cousin, or cousin-in-law T Neither.—
Does it affirm the full power of Con
grew to prohibit in the Territories
"those twin relics of barbarism—Poly
gamy and Slavery?" Does it denounce
the invasion of personal and State
Rights by the Drcd Scott Decision ?
Does it deal vigorously with one leading
question at issue ? Neither. It is neg

The People's Ticket.
The opposition leaders and some of
their papers, says the Daily Herald,
are laboring efrriesily and diligently
to create the impression that the nom

have been rewired with enthusiasm.—

Not True.
The Baltimore American says
is reported that the Administration at
Washington have given the contract
for the iron pipes for the now water
works in the Federal Capitol to a firm
in Scotland ;" and then adds that the
Fishkill Standard learns the fact from
a gentleman in the vicinity of that
town. - Let the report come whence it
may
,it is entirely falso. The contract
or for the pipes in gnestion is Mr. Law
rence Myers, of Philadelphia. The ed
itors of the American well know, how
ever, that, the contract fur these pipes
is awarded to the lowest bidder, after
proposals have been advertised for, and
were the report it gives currency to
correct, ,no censure could rightfully
rest with the Department of the Gov
ernment by whom the awards arc
made.— Wash. Star.
Simon Cameron Repudiated at Home.
It seems that the nomination ot hon
est Simon "wig-wag" for the next
Presidency was too great a burlesque
even for his own immedir te neighbors
and political friends to swallow. The
!ate Black Republican convention, in
Dauphin county, refused to endorse his
reoommendation as a candidate for the
next Presidency, and the resolution had
to be essentially altered and modified
before it could be passed. It merely
approved of his course in Congress.—
Simon's stock in trade is getting a hun
dred per eent. below par.
The Norfolk (Vs) Argus, in speaking
of this bribe which the N. Y. Herald
must have received to eulogize this no
torious individual, says :
" But Mr. Cameron should be morn
prudent ; he is throwing his money
away; he can never be nominated by
Bennett's ;Ounce, and if he were, he
cannot buy hinistlf into the Presidency,
as he did into the Senate.
"Let him be nominated and we will
show up seine of his corruption in con
nection with our 'Navy Yard. If walls
had toriguos as well as cars, those of
the Gosport Iron Works could make
startling disclosures about Simon Cam
eron's honesty."
Ttirreosts for the Sake of Mee
It must be a source of peculiar antis.
faction to those who fur long years have
persistently,if not consistently and wise
ly' opposed the National Democracy, to
observe the avidity with which the
Black Republicans seek to reward the
few recruits from the Democratic ranks,
who have joined their by hrid organiza-'
tion. Those who have borne the burthen
and heat of the day in opposing the
Democracy, are compelled to stand
aside to give place and position to every
renegade who duteous to be kicked out
of oar ranks as impound. To hate been
a Democrat and to have deserted from
the ranks of that party, is a sufficient
rooominendatiou for Iliac* Republican
honors. It must, indeed, be a bitter
pill to the OldLiue Whigothe..Anti-lia
sone, and the Straight Americans, to
see snob men as Gov. Reeder occup yfng
the chief seat in their State Convention
and such a man aa John M. Road receiv•
mg its chief nomination. These men
who Lave bad.* tinzipottuy prominence

What will nta human ingenuity ac

Adjutant General Wilson has issued
a circular to the military of the Com
monwealth, in which he explains the
etrecte of the military law, and refutes
thqkleaexpressed by many newspapers,
that the volunteer system will involve
the State in debt. He says that under
the law, each county forms a brigade,
and each brigade must support its own
military organization from the military
tax raised in it. Tho State Treasury
has, therefore, nothing to do with pay.
tug military expenses, except so far as
the expcnses proper of the Adjutant
General's department are conCornett—
He expressos the opinion that the sur
plus from the military fund in the sev
eral brigades, after paying the expen
ses of the volunteer companies within
their bounds, will be quite a handsome
item for the sinking fund, and assist in
paying the public debt of the Common
wealth :
Military Expenses.—" The military
fund in the State Treasury is responsi
ble for no military expenses_except
those orate Adjutant General, lonians!
Stuff, military storekeepers, repairs of
arsenal and repairer of ariss,,ite.
If the military fund in any county is
not. sufficient. for the payment of the ex.
penes of the brigade, the county Treas
urers will make apre rata division among
the several claimants.
No °Weer whatever, in any division
or brigade, has any authority to make
expenses which shalt in any event be
chargeable to the State.
Tho
roulity treasurers will be carefuland observe`stlio law, in making par
monis. and arc directed—
1. To pay no military - expenses un
less on the order of the Board of Audi
tors, as directed by Act of Assembly,
April 21, IcsB.
2. The salaries of I3rigile Inspectors
will not,be paid .until the close of the
military year, being the last day ofDe
cernber in each year; if paid before,
and the said Inspectors have, not made
their proper returns to this office, the
treasurers do so at their' own risk.—
The law requires this salary not to be
paid until notice is given to treasurers
by the Adjutant General.
The Brigade Board of Auditors will
observe a proper economy in the expert
ses of their brigade, and pass no bills
that are in any way exorbitant.
All military officers are enjoined to
take especial care that the proper as
sessments are mado,und all the military
taxes collected.
All collectors and treasurers will be
held to a strict account, under the law
in relation to the collection of Military
fines and taxes."
