Iturunmcnx Nomixavorgs,—.The. convention
of delegates which was held inlhe borough of

sons up to be beaten at the ensuing
.election:
• Treasurer, W. X. King; Prothonotary, J.R:
Chadwielt; Sheriff,James Blair; Register and
Redorder, C..K.Sartwell; Commissioner, D. J.
Keyes; Coroner, Roos Parsons; District. Attor
nby,.W. A. Nichols.
Th'e nomination of the ticket, last ',evening,
caused no surptise, as • the candidates ,had all
been chosen, by a feW km:4mi. ones, in the
borough, several days ago. . This does, not,.
however, proient disappointed aspirants from
feelinivery,sore. 114 r. 'Ford, probably feels the
slight he received in the.convention, the most
accttely from his having sought office so long,
and so , often been. disappointed. TheltiOld
Line Whigs" seem' to have been in favor, hav
ing been the recipients of the .best offices.
This is, probably from no wish to advance their
interests but thinking there is 'no' prospect of
electing the ticket, they will be out of:the Way,

to Gen. Foster's position on the Presidency,--'

that he is for Douglas,' while others assert
equally as confidently that he' is. for Breckin

While we do not recognize' the right of the.
Opposition to inquire into his ppt/ferences,eince
it is none of their business,, we take occasion,
to say that Gen. Foster was nominated as the
Democratic candidate 'for. Governer the
Reading Convention, which COnvention also
adopted a platform of principlee. That nomi

form he endorsed, Upon,it he stancls, and with
