The Republicans of Pennsylvania have every reason to congratulate themselves on the spirit displayed and results achieved at the State Convention on Wednesday. A cut and dried programme, prepared out side of the convention and often by men who were not members of it, has been im posed npon the convention so often that a free expression of the Republican senti ment of Pennsylvania hasb*eomein recent years the exception, not the rule. Last year this method of procedure was pushed to the extreme. Mr. Delamater was nomi nated because he was the choice of Senator Quay, and not because ha was preferred by the convention. Th* platform contained many things which were soon forgotten, but one plank wa* never lost sight of dur ing the entire canvass, and that was the attempted vindication ef Senator Quay. The result was that Pennsylvania's mag nificent Republican majority of 80.000 was converted into a majority of 16,534 for Gov ernor Pattison. It was hoped that this lesson wonld be taken to heart, and that Senator Quay would be at pains to cvnid making him self in any degree an issue in this year's State campaign. For a time it seemed as iP he intended to keep himself in the back ground. He was reported as saying this "is not a good Republican year," and his friends claimed for him that he ex pected the party to he beaten, and intend ed to keep bis hands off in th* belief that the defeat wonld'he attributed to the want of his leadership and council, and that a chastened party wonld insist np«n placing him more firmly than ever in the saddle for the critical work of 1802. Whether it was that he began to donbt that defeat was the Republican portion this year, or because he began to dream, or because ho finds it impossible to keep quiet—hav ing disencumbered himself ot the National Committee chairmanship—and having taken coonselwith Mr. Cameron at Done gal, Mr. Quay undertookto run bis machine again this year in th* old fashion. But the maohin* Wonld not work. The, wreck of last year seemed to have disloeat- ] ed some of its Joint* and it failed to do what was expected of it. The platform published in most of the afterneon papers Wednesday show what was intended that the Convention should doclare, but th* jflatform as adopted and published in Th* Press of yesterday shews how far the will of Messrs. Cameron and Quay failed to im press itself on the coven tion. It was decreed at Donegal that • slight shonld be put np on President Harrison by an ostentatious and unseasonable nomination of Mr. Blaine for the Presidency. This (he convention refused to do, It waa ordered that the convention shonld declare for the Ire* coin age of American silver. Mr. Cameron had voted for free silver; had speculated on on his vote, and is understood to b* inter ested in silver mine*. The convention re fused, however, to aid his speculations, and indorsed the silver bill passed by the last Congress. It was arranged that there should be no endorsement of the elections bill, which Mr. Quay moved to lay aside at a most critical stage in its progress and Mr. Cam eron voted against at every stage. Bnt the convention saw the omission and inserted a ringing declaration for honest elections. Chairman Andrews, who did Mr. Quay's bidding last year, was ralegated to the ranks and a man in whom the republicans have confidence and for whom they can feel respect was put in his place. Last year the platform contained a cordial in dorsement of Senator Quay's and C*m*ron. This year the existence of those disting uished statesman receives no recognition. Captain Morrison, the nominee of the con vention for State Treasury, obtained his place in spite of Mr. Quay's oppostion, and while General Gregg's nomination had the doubtful honor of Mr. Quay's approval, General Gregg is as little responsible for this as is Mr. Blaine for the superservkea ble efforts of Quay and Cameron to place the President and hie Secretary of Stato in antagonism. Mr Quay should dream again, and per haps he will see signs in the heavens which will lead him to revise his apothegm, "Not a Republican year." The indications increase and multiply that it is going to be a very good Republican ymr, and all the more surely here in Pennsylvania because it is emphatically not a Quay year.—Phila •delphia Prats. TIIK people of Port Jefferson, L. I. are agitated over a remarkable double elope ment, two married women, who are mother and danghter, eloped with two married men, who are brothers. The Ohio Campaign. Tho Republicans of Niles, 0. and vicinity opened tho campaign enthnsiasticaly last Saturday. Tho crowd that assembled to hear Mc- Kinley speak was estimated at 25,000, the procession was Immense, and the banners contained such mottoes as: Protection is a question of wages. We haye looked after our own; that if the sim of oar offending. Twenty-two pounds of sugar for sl. Mc- Kinley prices don't scare us. We make the iron, will get the tin; McKinley's bill is bound to win. Tho best oi good money is good enougt for us. McKinley to our interests true; Yon stood by us, well stand by you. The industries of the Mahoning Vallej are builded on protection; look about yon then vote. New York's alien importers don't run us It will lake more than $500,000 o foreign gold to down us. Major McKinley spoke for two honrs devoting his speech almost entirely to twi topics—the silver question anJ the tariff ■iml his aiguments for an honest dollar am protected industries wore simple, cleai audconclusire. TO MEMORY DEAR. Butler's great welcome to the veteran survivors of the 78th aud 100 th volunteers and 4th cavalry. The people of Butler never made a greater effort to please, never succeeded better or ever enjoyed a holiday more thor oughly than they did Wednesday of this week. The occasion was the union re-union of the 78tb and 100 th infantry regiments, and 4th cavalry. Our people prepared for the occasion in every Way Beautifully decorated arches were bailt over the streets, a great tent was erected on the Diamond square, with decorations, electric lights, etc, and tables upon which a splendid feast was spread for the six hundred guests that were expected. Many of our business blocks and private residences were also handsomely decorated and more would have been had not the supply of bunting in the town been entirely exhausted Tuesday afternoon. Oar streeU were crowded Wednesday, no greater crowd was ever here, and the day was all that could been desired. The parade formed on McKcan and Jeffer son Sts., marched north to Fulton, and then to Maia, were met on Main St., by. the battery, which had been delayed, and eamo up the street in the following order: Gen. G. W. Reed and staff. Germania Band. Battery of artillery. Veteran Legion of Bntler. Surviv=ors of the 100 th Reg. (Round heads) about 150 men in line. Mounted escort. Scrub grass martial band.

Sullivan. He in troduced Kev. W. O. Campbell, Capt. of Co. K, who led in prayer- Then a delega tion of the P. N. M. 1., of Butler, under the lead of Prof. Brown, sang "My Conn try, 'TisofThee'; Hon. A. L. Hazen was introduced and made the address of wel : come to the veterans. He spoke of the re ! awakening of the patriotism of 1861-65, thanked the veterans for choosing Bntler as the place for their re-union, compli mented them on their war record, spoke of the causes and results of the war, and in behalf of the people of Butler extended to the regiments a cordial welcome —a short and good speech. Rev. J*hn Lusher, of the 78th, was then introduced and responded to the address of welcome. He referred to the heartfelt greeting, said that the greeting tho South erners gave them was fully as warm but of a different character, patriotism alone could move the people to such an outpour ing; spoke of the causes and results of the war, and of its cost in blood and treasure, named the different battles in which the regiments participated, said the hearts of the soldiers were yet as young as when they went to war in the May Day of their lives; the result of tho war was lifo and beauty for this country of ours, that the groans of war were succeeded by shouts of joy and our flag should be doubly dear; the war taught us things about ourselves and our coantry that we did not know before, and oar aim should now bo the highest good; the legacy of our fathers should be i sacredly guarded; the war also developed . the patriotism oi the men and heroism of the wome and ho mentioned the cases of Mrs. Gen. Barlow, Barbara Fretchie and others, and thanked o*r people for tho re ception given tbem. It wus a long speech and a good one. | (Then the regimental business meetings were announced; the choir Sang a selection, and Rev. Audley Brown pronounced a benediction and the crowd despcosed.

All afternoon the bands were playing; different organizations were marchings.and the ladies wore at work on that Bower ol Beauty and Beauty s Bower, tho great dining hall. THE BA!«jI'F.T. The banquet was immense, the food was excellent, the tables were beautifully spread, and the ladies that hovered around them and waited npon the guests were in most delightful, beautiful, ravishing set of creatures, that the grizzled veteran.-' have encountered between the sea shore and the Kockv mountains. They said it at their "Camp Fire" and they ought to know. There were seatn for six-hundred And Ail were occupied. TUE "CAMP FIBK." The social meeting that the veterans held after the banquet is called a "Camp Fire", but they don't sleep at it; they just take i :ii- "telling yarns, and piling taffy on int'i" liosts. Major ii-iiti..*. lof the 4th presided. He said this was the happiest moment ol his life,tiial the day had been replete with good things; that they would put "Butler" on their banner, that the 4th Cavalry fired the last shot previous to Lee's surrender. Major Phipps complimented the ladies whose actions (tables) spoke londer than word.-, he was "too full for utterance," but was enthusiastic regarding the banquet. Comrade K. P. Scott responded lor the ladies and was proud of the honor of being called upon to speak for 200 lovely wi es, and as nianv more beautiful girls, thanked Col. Phipps*for his compliments, and »<bl ed some more to them. Comrade K. Audley Brown was sleepy, he had been kept awake all the previou night by some loafers on the street, mid his entire speech was a criticism of the po lico regulations of Butler. Capt. W. K. Gillespie said this was ilie finest re union he had ever attended, and he was sorry they had agreed to go to Washington next year, as he would rather come back to Butler, tallied the ladies.aud gave some incidents of the campaigns in Virginia. , , Comrade Lusher paid a beautiful and earnest tribute to tho memory of General William Tecumseh Sherman. Miss Florence Fisher recited ' The Oc- toroon," anil <lid well. Comrade Jas A Humes told the story of the '-Hack-tails" at Gettysburg; compli mented the citizens of Butler for reception, and (tot iu a word about the danger* o( plutocracy (government by the wealthy) in this country. Miss Mary Ayrcs saluted the veterans in a recitation beginning "Heroes of the Camp." and was loudly applauded. Comrade Underwood enjoys this kind ol a love-feast, and particularly enjoyed this reunion, which was the grandest he ever attended, and thinks that some of the yet unmarried soldier boys will be looking aronnd here for wives, over against buck wheat cake time. Comrade Shirlock who now lives m Far go, X. Dakota, and weighs HOO pounds, thought this the best reunion he had yet attended. Capt. J H Grant, formerly of Allegheny twp., this count*, told some stories of early California, spoke of the heroism ol the women during the war, and told the story of the Illinois woman who had 12 sons in the army. 1) B Douthett, Esq. was called upon and made a short but neat speech,compliment ing the better judgment of those, who at the beginning of the war said the rebellion could be subdued, as compared to those who donbted. Two or three others spoke, Sec'y Steph enson was presented with a gold pen and Sec'y Ward with a glass canteen, and the great reunion of I HOI was at an end. NOTES. Col. Sullivan can consider this great re union the crowning victory of his lift;. The lioundheads appreciated it and voted him an honorary member of their society. The "Sun Flower" band of the 100 th Reg. was immense, and their serenades, after the banquet, were highly appreciated by the ladies, who deluged them with boquets. Everybody that we heard mention the matter felt sorry that the officers of the 78th did not give Capt. Hoggs' Co., and the other "new" members of the organi zation their badges. There was room for all on this occasion. On Tuesday evening the Homestead Drum Corp. under direction of Capt. Hen gongh serenaded J J Reiber of Co. H. ißth. Over 40 members of Co. H, 78th were present, the largest number that yet at tended any of the re-unions. It was a double re-union for the Duncan brothors of Connoquenessing twp. seven of whom mot here that day. Their names are William, now of Lowelville, Ohio; 10. G. of Greenfield, lowa, Alex of Dunbar, Pa., l'resley of Adams twp, and I. X., B. M., and Robt. of Connoquenessing twp. Three of them belonged to the 4th Cavalry, Wm. to the 78th, and Alex to tbo l!»3d. Among the old time friends attending the Re union on Wednesday was Capt. Charles B. Gillespie ofFreeport, Pa. whoso pleasant face we are always glad to see. The Capt. spent his early school days in Butler and is remembered as a ripe scholar He was a worthy soldier in the late war and has for years past been a successful physician in I'reeport. We know of no more generous, whole-souled man in this world than Doctor Capt. Gillespie Capt. J. M. Brinker, formerly of Clarion county and now of Buffalo City, Xew York, was with the old soldiers on Wed nesday. The Capt. since leaving Clarion county, has been successfully engaged in the coal business at Buffalo. Rev. R. Audley Browne of Lawrence Co., Chaplain of the old Roundhead Regiment, was with his old survivors at the Re-union here. Chaplain Browne represented this county in tlio State Senate, elected in 180.) when Butler was connected with Lawrence Co. His old friends here were glad to again meet him. The 78th met in the Court room. The 4th Cfevnlry met in the hall of the Veteran Legion »i: the Reiber block,which had been decorated •.• Major Phipps and B. 11. Duncan. The 100 th mot in the hall of the K. of I*. in the Troutman building, which Comrade Ward had decorated very tastefully. The badges were Red, White, Blue and (ireen, the Green being for the 4th division, which was composed of colored men. Capt. Hook of Tullahoma, Tenn., an old Butler Co. boy, was one of the visitors from lar away. WHO TIIKY ARK. In order that our younger readers may know who re-united here, and in whoso honor this reception was given, we make tho following short sketches ol tho organ izations and career <«£ each of the regi ments. TIIK 78TH. The 78th was recruited iu Butler, Arm strong, and other counties in August and September of 1801. and assembled at Camp <>rr, near Kittanuing. On the 18th of October the following field officers were chosen: Col. Wm. Sirwell; Lt. Col. A. Blakeley; Major A. 1!. Donation, and on some day this regiment, accompanied by the 77th "and 79th, and Muebler's Battery, all under tho General Negley, started down the river from Pittsburg, in trans ports. They disembarked at Louisville, and a few days after took their first posi tion at N'olin's station on the Louisville and Nashville It. R.. ami were part of Gen. McCook's division, which in December fol lowing moved to Nashville. The regi ment formed part of the garrison of Nash ville till August of '(l2, and took part in the engagements at Lavergno, Neeley's Bend, White Creek, Charlottesville, and Franklin I'ike and Stone Creek, at which place Capt. Jack, of Co. 11., received a fatal wound. During the campaign of 'O.l, Negley's di vision encountered the enemy at Dug Gap iu Pigeon Mountain and a detachment of the 78th held tho gap for several hours; aud tho regiment also participated in the battles of Chickainauga, Lookout Monn tain, ami Mbsion Ridge. In the Atlanta campaign of '<>4 it partic ipated in the eugagemennts of Tuunel 11 ill, Buzzard's Boost. Kesaca. Dallas. New flope and Kenesaw Mountain, and was af terwsrds again ordered to Nashville.where it was mounted, and operated again t the rebel cavalry. It returned to Kitlaniiing and was mustered ont Xov. 4, 1804. A part of the regiment however, remained at Nashville and re enlisted, and these with eight new companies, one of which was Co. E. of this county, were reorganized with Major Bonaffon as Col. Co. If. Capt. Wm. S. .lack, was one of the original com panies of the regiment, which enlisted for three years. Capt. Jack died at Nashville on Feb. sth, ISG3. an/ Lieut Ayrcs was promoted to the captaincy, ami served out the time of the regiment. Co. E. was commanded by Capt. liobt. J. Boggs. and was made up, almost en tirely of Butler County boys, and Co. F. contained quite a number. The new reg iment took part in the Cumberland cam paign, under Thomas in ISOS and was mustered out on Sept. 11th of that year. THE 100 TH. This regiment was recruited in the west ern and southwestern counties of the State, aud was known as the "Hound llead" roe. It arrived at Washington, on Sept. 2. 1861. and was officered as follows: Col., Daniel Leasure: Lt. Col., James Armstrong: Major, David A. Lecky. It was brigaded under Gen. Stevens, and formed partof the expeditionary force under Gen. Sherman, that left Fort Monroo on the 29th of Oct. and captured forts Walker and Beaure gard on Nov. 7. aud afterward occupied Beauford, S. C. In June of '62 it was in the engagements at Legareville and Tower Hill, in which it lost heavily. In July it returned to Virginia, and was attached to the famous Ninth Corps, under Reno and Burnside. It participated in the second battle at Bull Run in Aug. of '62, and lost heavily, all its field officers being killed or wounded during the second day, and the regiment then being under the command of Capt. Cornelius of the Butler company. It also fought at South Mountain and Antietam. In lbttl it form ed part of the force sent from Virgin a to Kentucky, and afterwards to the support of Gen. Grant at Vicksburg. and after the fall of that place operated with Gen. Slier man against Jackson, Miss., where many ol the men were attacked by malarial fever due to bad water. They took part in the siege of Knoxville in Jau. of ' 64, re-enlist ed, took veterans' furlough, and again ren dezvoused at Pittsburg in Feb. with enough recruits to fill out the regiment, re joined the Ninth army corps, and fought at the Wilderness, Spottsylvania, North Anna, Cold Harbor, Petersburg, "fete, and after Lee's surrender was mustered out at Washington, July 24, '65. The career of this regi'.ueut was a remarkable one. Tho Butler county company of this regiment was Co. (,', 'which enlisted under Capt. James IC. Cornelius. He was promoted to Colonel, and was succeeded by Capt. David Crilchlow, who was promoted to Major and was succeeded by Capt. George W. Fisher. The original members of Co. C. and those added to it during the war make a roll of 215 members in all. 4TH CAVALRY OR 64T11 RE<«. The 4th Cavalry was recruited from sev eral counties of the state, iu ti.e fall of 1861, re dezvo ised at Camp Curtii:, near Harris' ..g, ami were then trans!' rred to the camp near the Soldiers' 11-nne at Wasbii ' 1.
