Last Sabbath Rer. Mr. McCarrell, fronr Shtppensburg, Pa., preached the comraa nion sermon in the Presbyterian church, from the 39th verse of the 13th chapter of St. John. The verse reads : H'ktu Jeiut. tltrefcre, kad rectired the btnegar, ke said. It is Anishtd ; ani kt boxed hit head and gare p the ghost." Tm Theme of the sermon, as deduced from the text, was The Fimshed Woes or Jcscs. The last sayings of dying friends are say ings that never pais from the remembrance of the minds of deaf friends. They are like the utterances of angels i they are cherished, aud thought of in the busy whirl of work and business, and in the stillness of night ; they seem like messages from the border-land of eternity. The text, j "It is rixisHED," was the last saying of Jesus, and is of won- I derful meaning. All ot the sayings of the I Sou ot God were of nntoid importance but I the last utterance of the savior was the proclamation that the plan of redemption for the human race was complete, and that from that time on to the last day men must be redeemed through the tnsrits of the sac rifice of the Son of God on the Cross. The work for man's redemption was com pleted, and a new doctrine was abort to be proclaimed to all the world, that of peace and good vi'l 'tpnvrg men, and though it would taJre ares to bring the world to a recognition of the truth, the truth of Christ's teachings will prevail; and now, at the distance of many centuries, we see more of its work than in all past days. The work is finished, ai.d the truth is abroad, and gener ations of people and centuries of time will be required to bring it to a cousuuinialion among men. If men were not Mnful, were not full of unbelief, as were the Jews, the glorious inheritance of eternal happiness might be enjoyed by all. -The last utter ance f the Savior iudicated relief, satisfac tion, and triumph. It was Fibi-t A KzuEr to Christ, because it was the end of a mis sion on which he was sent to redeem a lost world from sin and misery, and fro in which lie was about to be relieved and pas again into the blessed realrrs f his father, lie had been sent to receive the penalty of a Violated law, to cairy away the siu of the world, and in his work ol mercy he was not appreciated. Toe world received him not. His jonrnoy from the manger in Bethlehem, to Golgotha was a way full of sorrow and agony. The wonderful temptations that he ebdured; to take the power that Was bis, and exercise it as a man, aa other man ex cised power among men was now over. The sorrow was over, the agony was over, the temptations were over. He could have been a temporal king, not ecly of the Jews, but all the world a king who could command 11 the laws of nature command the winds, the seas, life and death, all things seen and unseen. What a relief it must have been to him to exclaim, "It is finished." So il should be to every follower ot the inoek and lowly Jesus. What a moment of relief it must be to fee able to say, "It Is Hnbhed." But it was, Sioosd A Sathfactioji. It was a satUloction to Christ that the work was finished. He had proclaimed sal vation, and so prepared the way that the proclamation should becontinued. Ile.had procured saltation for a lost race, and the way for the promulgation of the truth was assured. It was a satisfaction to exclaim, it finished," and so it will be a satisfac tion for every christian who has proclaimed and procured saltation to exclaim in a dying hour, "It is fiubhed. The exclamation of Jesus was, Tniao A Taicifrw. The coming of the Son and bis sufferings were in accordance with a covenant entered into by God the Father, and the Son. The condition was not the conviction of the Son, bnt The conviction of sin. Christ, through his sufferings, oiercauie sin, and secured its conviction. He had assumed the flesh to die ; he bad become an instrument, and bis sufferings and death teach how men are instruments. His purpose was accomplish ed, and the exclamation, "It is finished," was shout of Triumph ; it was a declara tion that peace between (tod aud man had been secured. Triumphant indeed will he be who, when the end of lite is reached, can exclaim, " it finished." CoxcLtsiea. It is God's purj,ioe that the blessings of the finished work be received by all nations and tongues, and in his cwn good time all nations and tongues will confess him. It is well nigh 1900 hundred years since the Re deemer exclaimed. ult it finished," and how far yet in the future it is till all shall know f the finished work, cannot be told by man ; but just so soon as God's people will tiave been gathered np, Jesns will come. It is your inheritance to be gathered np with God's people. God's elect have a finished work for an inheritance. Jesus has finished the work. Camp meeting opens at Newton Hamilton to-day. A daily newspaper will be pub lished on the ground by the Frysinger toothers. The paper is called the Camf Daut, the first number of which now lies on our table. In its columns we find the following people from thiscounty registered as having tents on the ground : W. D. Cra mer, Sarah A. Coffman, W. H. Egolf, Geo. Goshen, J. S.Gray bill, G 8. Mills, J. W. Speddy, Charlotte Snyder, Rebecca J. Diven. A Democratic) Shaka-Un. Not within the reoolleetion of ben of this generation have the Democrat t of Juniata couotj shaken themselves up, as thej did last Saturday, at their primary election, tod oa Monday at their nominating convention. Every body of tbat political persnation was odt to tbe rirfcarv election. The octo genarian, aud the youth who expeots to reach bis majority in November, both alike were mastered by their chieftains and harried to the polls on Saturday to Tote for delegates. The Apparent Cacsi of all the excitement among tbe erring ureiuren, lies Dace in the Domination lor Assembly tbat took place two years sgn, when Luoien Banks expected to receive the nomination for Legislature end was distanced in the race by Tbe orua 1). Garman. The two young men again came to tbe surface ss candidates for Assembly, and one Democrat after another espoused tbe cause of tbe re spective men until tbey got asunder, and came to be styled Crawford, and Parker people, and thus under two ban ners went into a most vigorous fight, and tbat is why everybody was out. Of course Bucb a turnout on Saturday must needs bring a Urge orowd of spec- ta'ors to we Con vESTiDJf on Monday, and precisely at 2 o'clock, when A. J. Patterson called the Con vention to order, in the main court room in the Court House, every avail able space was occupied. Everybody among the Democracy thought it was oommonly known, that tbe Crawford people had a large ascendancy in tbe convention, and tbat there could be no fight of any account made on Assem bly man by the Parker people. Tas Organization was effuoted by tbe unanimous election of Jobn Dietrick as Piesident. and Joseph Dearing and Thomas McCul- loch as Secretaries of tbe conversion. Tbe roll of delegates was called and credentials asked for. Tbe following gentlemen constituted tbe Membership: Miffliutown A. (i. Bon.-a!t, Jacob Sulouff. Fermanagh Philo Shively, Michael Stoner. Patterson Jobn Copeland, Jobn Dietrick. Millord Thomas McCulloch, L. Anghey. Beaie Jos. Dearing, Clayton Harris. Tuscarora P. Beale, J. C. Crawford. Lack V. Miller. J. Rhine. Black Log P. Smith, W.

The fit st business, in order was de clared to be the nomination of aa ASSEMBLTMAX. Mr. Copeland, of Patterson, nomina ted Tbeorus D. Garman, and Mr. Bon Kail uouiintted Lucien Banks. Before a vote of the convention was taken Mr. Hibbs read a communication from Mr. Garman, slating tbat be felt satisfied tbat tbe second term of office is cot acoeptable to tbe Democracy of Juni ata county, and therefore be asked that bis friends withdraw bis name as a can didate. Mr. Garuian's request was granted, and bis name withdrawn from the convention. Dr. Banks was then noniiuated by acclamation. Tbe nomi nation of a Ccfntt Treasurer was the next thing taken np. W. S. North, Jobn D. Milliken and Jobn W. Kirk were nominated. Before a ballot was taken Mr. Millikeo'e name was withdrawn Tbe result of tbe frst ballot was. Kirk '.'I, North 14. Mr. Kirk was declared the nominee of tbe convention, and unanimously confirmed. Tbe office of Cocntt Commissioner was text taken up. Jobn P. McWil liaurs, William Van-Ormer and W. V Watts were nominated, but before a vote was taken tbe Dame of Mr. Watts was withdrawn. McWilliams and Van Ormer were nominated by acclamation. Tbe nj-aiinatica of District Attorney i next claimed the attention of tbe eon-j vention. E. S. Doty, Jr., D. D. Stone, B. F. Burciifield and George Jacobs, Jr., were nominated. Tbe first ballot resulted: Burcbfield 6, Jacobs 13, Doty 11, Stone 6. Tbe result of the Second ballot was: Jacobs 14, Doty 11, Stone 5, Burcbfield 6. On the conclu j sion of the sixth ballot tbe chairman congratulated tbe delegates on their fealty and plnek for their candidates.1 At this juncture a spectator created quite a bubbub, by demonstrating tbat be bad taken too lreely of drink. Tbe Sheriff was called to minister to bis case, and quiet was again restored. On tbe completion of tbe llth ballot, ex Sletiff Ard moved tbat tbe convention drcp tbe nomination of District Attor ney and proceed to the nomination of a Prothonotary. Tbe motion was second ed, and put on tbe point of a passage, when the discovery was made tbat tbe ex-Sbcriff was no delegate. Tbe mis take was rectified, and bis suggestion adopted by tbe postponement of the nomination of a District Attorney, for tbe Dominatinu of Prothonotart. George Reynolds, Wilber McCahan, Jobn V. Hibbe, . A. Aumiller and A. D. Van-Dvke were nominated. Cards, bearing the following, bad been circulated among tbe delegates by tbe friends of Mr. Aumiller : Mr Fkikxds I am a candidate for tbe ofiice of Prothouotary ; am a cripple, en able to perform manual labor, and am a poor man. Won Id yon please give me your vote in convention, if not committed. Yours, respectfully, E. A. ArMiLLsa. Tbe first ballot resulted : Reynolds 15, Van-Dyke 9, Hibbs 6. McCahan 4, Aumiller 2. On tbe 2nd and 3rd bal lots Aumiller was not voted for. On the 4th ballet tbe nomination was made. It stood : Reynolds 19, Van-Dyke 14, Hibbs 1, McCahan 2. Tbe nomination was made unanimous. After which tbe District Attorney ship again came np. The 12th ballot was like the llth. Tbe 16:h ballot stood : Jacobs 13, Doty 12, Burcbfield 9, Stone 1. Tbe 17th ballot resulted : Doty 14, Jaoobs 13, Burcbfield 8, Stone 1. Almost every ballot a few changes were made, but no result was reached. On tbe conclusion of the 23d ballot a delegate declared tbat he felt hungry and moved to adjourn for sap per. Another delegate moved that the lowest candidate be withdrawn, but tbe chairman paid no heed to the motions. Mr. Copeland withdrew tbe name of Mr. Burcbfield After the 25th ballot Lad leea an- nouocedi a sno'tioo was made and sec onded that the name of Mr. Stone be withdrawn from the convention Mr. Plett sprang to his feet and interposed an objection to the disposal of a candi date in tbat way. A candidate had a right to be sncb as long as he chose, till a eboiee bad been ade. Ta dis pose of a candidate in that way was fundamentally wrong. Tbe President thought as did Mr. Plett, and ruled out the motion to withdraw tbe aaaie of Mr. Stnue. After the 31st ballot, the convention again dropped tbe Distriot Attorney ship aud was about to proceed to ballot for Auditor, when Mr. Plett moved tbat tbe coo Ten tion declare in favor of Mr. Steuger tor Congress, and he proceedod to speak to bis motion. The President called him to order, but a about of "Go on, go on" encouraged him, aed eaustd the Presi dent to say no more against bis deliv. ery. He said there had beon a set np tor Hagee, or ferry oounty, and it bad been made three years ago. Mr. Die trick called a secretary to tbe chair, and took tba floor, in vindication of ibe friends of Mr. Mage6, and so impress ed tbe Democracy, that when be put .Mr. rlett s motion tbat tbe ( ongres sional conferees be instructed to sup port Mr. Stenger, tbe convention almost unanimously declared against tbe motion, after which Mr. Bonsall moved that Dr. G. D. Arnold, W. D. Walls, and Dr. A. J. Fisher be elected Congressional oonferees, with instruc tions to vote for Jobn Magee for Con gress. Adopted. Tbe Congressional question was fol lowed by Mr. Plett offering a resolu tion to cLange tbe system of delegate nominations in praotice among the Dem ocracy of Juniata county, for the Fay ette or Crawford county system of nom inating candidates for office. His earn est mauner, and bis charges of corrupt praotioes under the delegate system, raised tbe audience to their feet. Tbe President, Mr. Dietrick again came to the rescue in a speech, tbat had merit in it, for tact, and earnestness, and he Certainly proved himself tbe Bismarck of tbe Ctawford people, on that critical occasion. So intense had tbe excite ment become that it was necessary to call the roll of delegates to get the sense of tbe convection on tbe question of reform, and tbe interest manifested clearly indicates tbat at no distant day tbe Democracy of this county wili adopt and enjoy a system of nominations sim ilar to that in practice among the Re publicans. Tbe vote stood : For a change of system, 8 ; against change of system, 28. Tbe nomination of Auditor was then proceeded with. Messrs. Gilson, At. len, Randolph, MoMeen, Hoffman and Kearney were nominated. On tbe first ballot Mr. Allen received 21 votes, and was deolared nominated On tbe fee ond ballot Mr. Hoffman received '24 votes, and was declared nominated. Tbe convention again fell back on tbe candidates for tbe Distriot Attor- npeahin- and nn thji annonnipmpnt nf "J 1 - ' i the 33rd ballot, which stood : Jacobs! 9, Doty 16, Stone 1, Mr. J acobs was declared the nominee for tbe office of District Attorney. By resolution, A. G. Z?ocsall was elected Chairman of the County Com mittee. Resolutions, endorsing tbe platform and candidates of tbe late Democratic State C invention, Senator Wallace, Congressman Stenger, Senator daw ford, and Representative Garman, were offered, but before the resolutions could be put tbe last-named gentleman asked tbe privilege to speak. Tbe request was granted. He spoke of bis Democ racy, which he declared to be of tbe Jeffersonian quality ; of his reeard, on which he was willing to stand, and be wished not cheap endorsement. He was listened to attentively, and on the completion of his speech, the conven tion passed all of the resolutions with out a dissenting vote. Tbe County Committee was then ap pointed by selection of the delegates. Tbe turnout was unprecedented in the annals of tbe politics of this connty, and proves how tbe Democracy were shaken np. Tbe refusal of tbe candi date for Assembly nf tbe Parker peo ple, to go before the convention for nomination, and their utter failure to contest for tbe Chairmanship, prevented the spectators from forming an opinion as to tbe relative strength of tbe con tending parties. Why tbe stength of the Parker people wis not developed on a contest for Chairman, or on tbe can didate for Assembly is a question for conjecture. If tbe test of strength of the contending parties was made on tbe candidates for District Attorney, then the contending forces were nearly bal anced: If tbe machinery of the con vention is to be considered as a test, it was entirely in tbe bands of tbe Crawford people. If tbe Vote on tbe proposal to change the system of nomi nating candidates for office is to be con sidered a test, the Parker people were in a great minority. It was a great shaking up, without any certain inform ation, by action, as to the numerical strength of those who shook tbe Dem ocratic camp to so remarkable a degree. A Correction. Editor Sentinel and Republican : Sir, A rumor having been circulated through out tbe county tbat Mr. J. W. Wagner, one oT tbe aspirants for the Republican nomination for Protbonotary, is too young for the office, and is not compe tent to fill the office if elected, 1 ask tbe privilege, in justice to a young man who bas thus tar made bis own way in tbe world and is ambitious euough to try and do better, to correct tbe false impression, through your columns. Mr. Wsgner has been a voter for six years, has acquired, through his own efforts, a more tban ordinary English education, speaks, reads, and writes German, fluently, and is known as one of the best penmen in J uniata eounty. Being of a retired and unobtrusive dis position, he has not made himself con spicuous, bnt he is old enough and competent enough to make as good a Prothonotary as ever filled the office in Juniata eounty. He is sober, indus trious, and honest, and an intelligent and uncompromising Republican. Give him a fair show. FAIR PLAY.
