Mr. Rawle's letter of 'acceptance of the

Supreme Court has been received by Chair

Convention.
The Philadelphia Press sent a represen
tative to Wa.siiington on Tuesday to pay to

The Pittsburg Commercial-Gazette claims
to have dispatches from every county west
of the Allegheny mountains indicating that
General Beaver will be solidly supported
by the Republicans of those counties.
This is the way a Connecticut paper looks
at it : The independent reformer admits
that the Pennsylvania repUblican nomina-
tions are excellent, and that the platform is
just what a reformer wants, but neverthe 7
less there must be a bolt.
Congressman Scranton has succeeded in
having incorporated in the River and

The total ec pse of the sun was success

H. H. Warner, of the Warner Observa

The Democratic leaders in Congress lave
resisted e%:ery:progressive measure thus far
coming before the House of Representatives
during the present session. They have re
sorted to all sorts, of expedients for that
•
purpose. anti yet they have utterly failed to
prevent the passage of any important meas
ure in the - ,programme of action resolved
"upon by the Republican caucus.
Senator Cooper has sounded the first
bugle call of the campaign, and its warning
notes tell us that a long `and active campaign
is before us. 'The addressrof the State'Com
mittee, which is published on'the first side
of our paper, briefly but succinctly sets
forth the merits' of the Republican candi
dates and_ platform, and it shows that the
party is still true to its past recordi and to
its proxilisps,to keep Oreast with popular
demands. •
It is worth while to call-the attention of
those who are looking for an opportunity
to servo their country in an official capacity
to the-fact that the bill creating an Agri
cultural Department'requires that the Sec
retary of Agriculture shall be a practical
.rfarmer. Those who are looking to that
plac, , c in the future vvill be on, the roint to
preferment - when they start a potato
,patch - of their,own:
The election in November 'next cannot
possibly be strippeiCif political importance
by any effort4o givt4lomiruance to a new
party rallied under cry against partisan
ship and against may organizations. The
Republican party ti not the property of
any of its leaders, and could get along as
'well without them as with them. Its
strength lies in its principles, its measures,
its tendencies, its policy, its history, and
its achievenients.
If reports be true; Congressman "Abe"
Hewitt, of New. Nork, is at times a profane
old man.. He . is diS,iruntled and demoral
ized over the action of his party on the
tariff_question, and declares .that the vote
of Saturday in the House was the . death
. knAll of the party. "The Democratic
, party," says Hewitt, 'is going to h—l again.
I have tried to save it, but it's no use."
Mr.. Hewitt's diagnosis of the Bourbon
organization is forcible if not elegant.,.
If the question Of Senator Cameron's sue
,
cesorin the United States Senate is the
basis of the Independent third party move
ment, we think the Independents by re
maining in and acting with the Republican
organization, would stand a much better
chance of accomplishing their purpose than
by going out and weakening the anti-Cam
cm forces within the party. There is
more than two years yet in which to con-
solidate and-strengthen the opposition
Our adiices relating to the candidates
likely to be nominated by the Independent
Convention at Philadelphia to-day, give no
certain indication of who 'will compose the
- ticket. The 4104 prominent men talked of
decline tho honor of running forth° purpose
of giving the State to the Democrats, and
*lt lcaksas though there will be trouble in
settling the ticket. They will hardly be
able to make a ticket that will compare
favorably with the regular ticket, and
voters will note the contrast.
It is a disgtustieg, fact,' . says the West
Chester Record, that tnembers of 'Congress
seize the opportunity when they can go to a
funeral in public capacity to make an
Hundreds of 'dollars are spent for liquors
and segue, the wonder , being bow the Con
gressional stomach can stand so much. The
Congressional party that went out to Presi
dent Garfield's funeral spent several bnial
red dollars for orkto2s alone, and other
drinks were usedv•in proportion, but the
Congretniional committee who had charge
of ttle accounts smothered . the Matter up.
Another discovery has - just been made of
the capacity of Congressmen to invest;pub
lie meney in drinks and segars. The party
whichwent to the Yorktown Ceniennial. are
asking for $.t)3,000, , to cover deficiencies.
Thy _ _ _
__ley, went down froM Washington .in a
steamer, taking two or three hundred
friends, lived on the most elegant viands
for three or four days, while the most costly
liquors of all kinds were free as air. The
result was a most disgraceful scene, and
now the people of the United States are
asked to foot the bill. It is probable that
the committee who have charge of the mat
ter will smother the thing bp, just as the
Garfield funeral orgie wasiand thus fair
notice will be given to the rext crowd of
revellers that they can luive,tis disgraceful
a time as they want at th 4 public expense.
The Norristown Herald in an article on
Senator Mitchell's position says: "He
would have the, hundreds of thousands of
voters surrender their rights and execute a
deed of trust conveying their political estate
to him and le- handful of silk-hatted and
kid-'gloved gentlemen. Then the latter in
their capacity of delegates will come to
gether bound by no pledge and no instruc
qpne, and responsible to nobody. They do
not propose to consult their plainer neigh
bors, who vote and pay taxes, or to give
the ppople so much as an intimation of
what the outcome is to be. But after they
have7inet they will nominate
l whom they
please, and their ticket will represent the
politicians of the Convention, and nobody
elie. Its candidates will be the candidates
of the delegates,but they will be' in no
sense the candidates of the people."
Says the worth American: Another effort
is to be made to secure for the veterans of
the Mexican war a share in the bounty I ,of
the national kovernment, and there cer
tainly seems to be no good reason why / it
should not be successful. The services' of
those who fought faithfully for their coun
try at that time are none the less meritor
ious because the cause inkvhich they were
enlisted is open to criticism, while the fact
that the American troops engaged against
Mexico were chiefly drawn from the south-'
ern States does not deserve to be taken into
consideration as an argument why the',
proposed pensions to the surviving veterans
should be withheld. At the same-time the
feeling that the . national, pension . ;roll is
' already too long will tell against the pres
ent movement. . . •

'The search for the Dublin osssmsios has
not yet been attended by any substantial
success.' It was supposed that -they might
have crossed the Atlaatic in the , Scythia,
which reached New York Thursday, and a
number of the Federal officials - were pro
'pared to take them into custody, but their
preparations went for nothing, as no per
sons oorielponding to the description given
were found on
. board. • It is, however,
reported that the English police, acting
upon_ information received, have arrested
some suspicious stowaways on a steamer
about to start from Liverpool, but the
.chance of their proving to be the persons
wanted is small.
Says the Philadelphia •North. American:
"It is, of course, a proper and laudable
ambition for any honelt eitiien in a Repub
lican State to aspire to any hOnorable office
or to any position of trast, responsibility or
profit. It is also proper to .bear in .mind
that his ambition is as just and right_ in
connection , with the regtikir nomination of
one 4 arty as another, and toicall an organi
zation Independent does, not; make it any
the less a party bent upon office and power
than if it were called Republican or Demo
cratic ."

vention in Harrisburg ;Thursday, and nomi

Woody, of Venango; CongreSsman-at-large,
R. K. Tomlinson, of Bucks. A motion to
change the name to "National Party" was
tabled'. FS. Heath was're•-elected chair
man of their State Committee. -
• If ,Philadelphia and Pennsylvania shall
go Democratic heavily in November next,
says the North American, it would be most
unfortunate for the great cause of protecl
tion- to our domestic industries, since the
next Congress will be liktly to be Demo
cratic and free trade. Indeed the free
trade element in the present Congress Would
be so strengthened and encouraged that it
would be almost impossible to give a decid
edly protectionist character to- the revised
tariff, and in all
. probability there will be a
failure to act on the subject.

SENATOR MITCHEL'S REVOLT.
The Republican members of the
Pennsylvania d4legation in Congress,
with one or 1 ,, two exception& express
deep regret kthst ' causeaiwhich might
have been avoided, and or , the gorl of
the party should have been avoided,
have lea to the revolutionary ' move
ment headed by Senator Mitchell.
While they do not agree. with, Senator
Cameron, and - his political inethods,,
they :to not think that Senator Mitch;-
ell is justified by the - eirountstances in.
his attempt to defeat the regular ticket
in Pennsylvania. Not a single Repub.
Bean member from that State, with
possibly the exception of Mr. Bayne, of
Allegheny, will cer.operate in . the
movement.. They, nevertheless, do
not 'underestimate the consequences
that may result to the Republican
party in Pennsylvania from such a re
volt. The. "Stalwart" Republicans
affect to belittle the movement and
say "it wilt amount to nothing," but
in truth and soberness; they give ex
pression to severe alarm. A revolt
which is likely to.-carry with it from
50,000 to 100,000 Republicans on a
portion of not all-of the ticket, it must
be confessed,.amOunts to a factor in
Pennsylvania politics that justly excites
alarm. It will endanger RepubliOan
supremacy in . the State Government,
and in the legislature, and aid in giving
the next Congress and the Presidency
to the Democrats
'The Independents, however; scout
the idea of such a-motive. They give
assurances that their aim is to elect a
sufficient number of Independents in
the next legislature to • enable them
to maintain a "healthy balance of
power" between the Cameron Repub-
Beans and the Democrats, upon all
questions of, political reform, and in
the succeeding legislature, which will
elect a successor ,to Senator Cameron
be able to hold miostrong a balance of
pOWer as to make his election impossi
ble. If this be the scope of. their 7 re•
volt the danger is that in dividing the
Republican vote u n candidates for
the legislatuie, the ;; will defeat ! ) them
selves, and make' he legislature hope
lessly Democratic.

EXTENSION OF NATIONAL BANK CHARTERS.
The bill "to enable national 'banking
associations to, extend their corporate
existence,"passed the
_House "on Fri
day afternoon last, after a protracted
debate of nearly a' week, by yeas
nays 67. ^The Democrats joined with
the Greenbnckers in opposition to the
bill. In the negative we find such
Democratic leaders as Randall, Beltz
hoover, Holrnansi Springer, Morrison,
and Knott, united with Brumm, Ladd
and Murch, 'Greenbackers. The object
of the bilf . is to enable national banking
associations Whose charters are about,
expiring to extend their corporrte ei
istence without winding up their cor
porate business and organizing anew,
Which most of them will desire to do.
It is expected that the District Su

THE DEMOCRATS FILLIBUSTERING
At a secret caucus held by the
Democratic members of the House o
Thursday evening last it was agreed
to obstruct by every poisible measure
known tp parlmentary law, the action
of a majority of the House in nthe
several contested election uses sow
pending in4olving the right of Repub

the certificate of election, and. Mackey
gave notice of Contest, claiming that he
was elected by a majority of the4egal
