next Tuesday, to put in nomination a
candidate to be supported by the Democ

of little Cambria will be sustained, that
the regularly appointed Conferees will be
admitted to their seats and that one of her
citizens will be selected as the candidate.

The Candidates for Conniy Commissioner.
The whig party, in their late County
Convention, did not evince their usual
shrewdness in the selection of their candi
date for County Commissioner. It has
been customary, and is in accordance with
the principles of right and justice, that the
members of the Board of Ccunty Com
missioners should come from the difleren
sections of the county, and ttat each por
tion if possible should have a representa
tion in that Board. It wilberecollected
that the northern part of this county has
two members of the Board already, and

we have not a word to say personally, the
