E .-- Judge'PAcK.Hrt does not appear
to be as well known in this part of the
State as he might be. After the return
from Harrisburg of one of the Southern
Pennsylvania delegates, (Me of•his con
stituents called upon him and asked
who was nominated. "Jtidge Packer,"
said the delegate. "Hurrah! hurrah!'!
roared the unterrified, " the very best
selection that could Aare been ?uncle.' "
then pausing a moment, eagerly in
quired, "What the hell.did you say his
name was ?" , '
-L7.lf the " signs of the times" do
not greatly deceive us, Judge PACKBEI,
the Democratic nominee for Governor,
will be left in a hopeless minority..
This result will be brought about not
on account of any unpopularity of the
Judge, hut owing 'simply to the fact,
as was so lucidly demonstrated by the
negro friend of the Volunteer editors,
that the • Copperheads • neber have
enough votes." There we have the
truth'in a nutshell. •
THE Pittsburgh Chromele thinks
that ur-less the Democratic - party in
Ohio is ready to launch at once into - the
question of-repudiation, their platform
was framed without much regard for
either expediency or honesty. It also
strongly intimates that it is not a Plat
fOrm upon which fin honest man can
stand.
Cab The President has appo,inted the
same day' for the electiemiu texas al
ready designated for that in tkiississip
pi. Thefe are no proscriptive or dis
franchising clauses- to be voted on in
Texas,lecausu theClonven tion- refused
to adopt any ; serthat . the question *ill
be direct and simple—" For the eon:
stitution," or "Against" it,AWe de; not
he'ar of any-serious apposition,
'bid Justice Chase has got Presi
dency on the brain very bad. He is
in constant intercourse with the Rebel
Conservative lenders, and daily using
whatever influence he poSsesees against
his Republican friends. His son.in
law,-Sprague, ha.s_aa_good_asAionc_over'
—ta_the enemy, and his . daughters are
helping Jilin to work up the Chase
movement. Poor old man There is
not the remotest shadow of a chance
that he ever will reach the Presidential
Chair. ,
Honor to whom lulknor is due I
Be it known unto all men, and espe•
cia)ly to all legislators, that, the,Legis
lature of Connecticut. which has lately
adjourned, was in session 26,days less
then its immeditite predecessor,
,and
cost the tax-payers of the State $25,006
less, with son - logo:in in the way of,con
tingent expenses. This Legislature did
a number of good things—ratified
~the
Fifteenth t‘ mend men t—struck the word,
" white:: out of the Constitution of the
State, re-est:lithely-II at Normal
School. But the most glorious, refresh
. ing, as tl- 6 encouraging thing, was the
zain'of the 26 days and the $25,000.
That's what we call - comfortable. -

A. l3uckalew, in his address to the
Democratic State Conven , ion of this
State, had the extraordinary assurance
to nay that the Democracy " did not
lklicve that party ought- to be-upheld
which had fulled to exlinguish, as it
.ought to have don`e, some five or• six
hundreds of millions ,of public debt."
As the Democracx is inflexibly oppos
ed to' taxation and no other means of
revenue, we don't see how h could ex

repudiation. Is that roguery coming

Mr. AKA PACKER, a Demodratic

voices of the sweaty. h'ard-workirtg'iind
horny-handed yeomanry of Pennsyl
vania at the polls next October. And
why not? Has he not bought . hid.

paid for it such a round 'price. out of
his accumulated millions, as he could
well afford to give, . provided he has
also bought three hundred thousand of
the people under the same negotietiont
For what,else have the Democracy of
the Commonwealth been advertised,
far and wide, within the two 'months.
past, and this smaller Croasus was bid
ding hundreds of thousands of dollars
for the votes of their delegates at the
Convention? That the votes were for
sale to the highen bidder has been no
toriously apparent to the most casual
observer of the political signs, and it'
was also known 'that Mr. Packer, the
possessor _of five millions of personal_
wealth,, had - entered the market place
to crush his less opulent competitors,
and sweep the shambles - of the party
of all. the. cattle needed 'to serve hid
ambitiOUs turn.
To some of the.sincere friends of - his
rivals, who well knew the venal char
acter of the largest number of the Dem
ocratic delegates, it became painfully,
evident,' weeks since, that they' were
contending against irresistable odds,
and without the - fainteSreliadow of a
hope. ,They saw,that .the merit of
mere political - services, such - as-.those.
of George W. Cass to his party, and
that the charm of present availability,
which promised a Democratic victory_
under the lead of. an illustrious soldier
like .Hancock, would count fie nothing
against the Cash which Asa Packer
avowed his determination to lavish for a
persrinal tiitimpli. But these purer
representatives - of - the partywee-rTed

THE Democrats say that the Regis
try Law destroys the liberty of the
people. Well, it does,, to a certaii de
gree and in .a certain sense, limit their
liberty ; or, at least, tbat. is its design.
It is intended to prevent a voter from
voting more than once at the same elec
tion, w►iile its further - object is to pre
vent ihosti not entitled• to vote from
voting at all.- It seeks to protect the
polls, -as Judge Agnew says,. " from
hirelings and vagabonds, outeasts_from
home and honest industry; men with
out.citizenship or stake in the Govern
ment; men who will commit perjury,
violence, And, murder itiielf;" and this
f - ,..r it': proscribes liberty. But other
laird are just as ohnoxionti to this Dem
ocratic objection, ' There is a law to
prevent the picking of pockets, which
a great many Democrats look upon-as
inuch - more:objeetionable in-the way - Of
assailing a • man's liberty to do 'as he
pleales than is the Registry Law. So
-with . nearly all 'yur lairs, they limit
liberty to do wrong, and aim to protect
th i s upright citizen, just as the Regis
try, Law does; but in organized society,
finch laws must prevail - , or crime and
anarchy would soon riile.-- The,public
cannot tolerate the liberty to commit
wrong and crimes, even to gratify the
Democracy.

Whereas, The nominations recently

More Time Needed
— The - postrioneurent - ortlic - Alabama
claim debate in the English Parliament,
is received with general ,satisfaction
throughout that island, on the ground
that do good could result from debate
now, and that more tithe is needed for
deliberation. The British Parliament
.approves of tho.conduct of the ministry
in. the matter, with the exception that
it believes too much has been yielded
to this country, and is not prepared to
substitute a policy that would be more
'acceptable here. Besides, the national
•
dignity, (which recently has been won
derfully aristocratic there,) forbids re
opening re question,. after the em
phatic di f3ent; that was given to the
Johnson - bungle by Congress. •
On this question of , great moment ,
we have at last the sentiment o Eng
land unexuressed, or 'rather expressed
more in acts than in words. The Ala
bama claims will, therefore, remain an
open question sometime longer ; which
will not be wholly unexceptionable to
ntany::of our People, who believe that
time is working for ne, and will even
tunny cemperthe allowing of our ex
treme demands. The pressure is strong
on England, Lis things now stand. The
weight . ibi constantly bearing upon her,,
and bears with increasing force. Those
in this and the old country, who see
farthest, have certainly seen this; and
- in England they have urged that a cltine
be put to this question at once. Al

it was no use. Here, wedged in his seat by

HALLECK, of New York - city, perfectly
unhurt, but unable to extricate himself
from the, wreck. In calm accontsiind per
fectly collected tones he told us to go got-
an axe and try to cut, an opening in: the

in a house by the roadside, but it was so

manner, found the harit unbearable,. we re
luctantly retired, compelled to leave this
poor gentleman and his eight followers to
thejr terrible fate. We moved off until
all was over. Nino . per:sons were thus
burned to death, and nine others were in=

_ Inquiries have been made with regard to
the amount 01 the - fund in the possession
of the Pennsylvania State Society of the
Cincinnati, for the purpose" of erecting a
monum'gnt to the mbmory of Washington,
wo have , obtained from some' of the
officers of the society tbq :following infor
mation,. The amount of the fund at the

and in city sixes, and is in the hands of
the following trustees, viz-: Messrs. nor
ace Binney, Jarabs- Schott, Thomas Mc :
Euen, Wm. A. Irvine, and Robert Ad
ams. The fund has increnicd to its pros
ont-atnple proportions from - a small begin
ning,. which gives evidence of Judi•
cious manageMent.
The Original amount collected from
members of the society, and from others
through their exertions, was $5,601;61,
which has, in the course of years, in
.reased-th-tho amount — n - esw - tri
names of the trustees are, in our opinion,
an undoubted guarantee that the fund,will
b e well taken care of.' Tho members 'cf
the society are of opinion that the fund in
their possession is not yet sufficiently large
to justify them in he erection of a menu-
Mani, but they are carefully nursing and
increasing thCir means, and it is their in;
tendon, at the proper time, to erect a.
Monument that will be worthy of the first
president of the society—the immortal

ABOUT GUIDE BOARDS.--The law
requires guide boards to be placed at the
fyylcs of every Feed, and it is the day of
constables to report to the court cases
where the law has_not he
useful provision and beneficial to
all classes of people. Nothing is more un
pleasant than not to know which one of
two roads to take, especially when a long
distance from a place whore inquiries can
bo made. Many townships of this county
are entirely deficient in this respect, Wo
would respectfully call the attention of road
itipervisors - to thls subject.
IF WE MAY credit the ,reports in the
Harrisburg papers, that Jingling little city
must have more than its full share of in
temperance. Even women in a state of
intoxication may be seen upon its streets.
In our streets a drunken man is a rare
sight, and an inebriated woman would be
an anomaly. But then we haVe no Dem

TIGHT SHOES.— The most MU
M observer cannot tail to' notice that the,
contortions of many young ladies, when
promenading the streets, caused from the
wearing.tight shoes. The waist they may
sqUeeie, aod in time they will got used . to
the compression, but the feet are fitted in
delicate machinery that will not bear-be
ing bound too tightly, without retaliating,
and causing alike proportionate suffering.
I ,4hen a young lady is gingerly Walking
along with a sort of biggle-de-piggledy
rtaition, her- form going through a series
of genuflexions, as though she was perpet,
wally about to take a seat, and as •often
changing her mind, she is generally sup- ,
posed to be suffering from a siiviire, attack
tiflirecien Bend, but in fully half,
stances noticed there is a look of intense
pain on the, face, the reflection of,the tar
ter° they suffer by trying to appear, to
have small feet. The best remedy is to let
such folks keep so doing, as in a short pe
'riokthe wearer of tight boots will' have a
spleUidid crop of corns, the tenderness of
which will certaiuly change the, opinion of
the wearer as to the_ ,propriety of , haying

The Atlantic .111qnthly for :August
is an admirable rinaber:',Tlibrivis sCireb;
a paper of its contents which will 'notte --
read with pleasure and instruction. The
magazine opens with a sensation, sketah by -
J. W. De. Forest, entitled "The Taillefer
Ball Ringinge," the scene of which is laid
to New Orleans. ."Great Earthquakes
of thd -018 \irOild;" by:H. S. Studer, is a'
very instructive paper and is weliicritten.
"Zo-roaster and the Zend:Avesta," 'by
James Freemen Clarke, is a very learned
and interesting article. There are ono or
two inaccuracies in this contribution, his
they are not of a very material elraraCtdr:
The - other - papers; - which - are alost'wo'rthf
of special notice, are ‘' ThbHamlets of_th;_ i
Stage," " Tho 'Strikers' of-thoWashing
tOn Lobby," a very vigorous—but not
altogether truthful article, by James Par
ton, and " On Mr. Fechter's Acting," by
Charles Dickens. Altogether the August
nuraher_of_the_Allantic-is-the-best-wirlave,
