CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATIC CONFEREE MEETING- The Democratic Conferees from this Con gressional District will meet at Johnstown on Friday the 15th day of September inst., at 10 o'clock to place in nomination a candidate to 1 e purported by the democracy. "We call the intention of the democrats of Huntingdon and Somerset to this question and express the hope that they will attend to the matter in time. Cambria as well as Blair has elected her con ferees. Let us have a candidate, a true good democrat, and there are many such in the field. LOOK CN THIS PICTURE AND THEN ON THIS! 'The gifted standard bearer of the great Whig party, James Pollck, is too noble in his aims to ask the sulirages ot a generous public, without giving a full, frank and fair exposition of his sen timents, as might and ought to be expected from a candidate for a responsible office." The above paragraph is taken from the Mil(on- ian, the organ of Judge Pollock, published in the town in which he resides. Well, this champion of whig principles, who, when he was first nomina ted, was reprcs nted by his friends to be a man who had no opinions to conceal from the public, made his first speech in Tittsburg lat week. We have read the reports of Ins address in the papers of both parties, and find, as was to bo expected, that he denounced the Nebraska Bdl, advocated the sale of the public works and opposed any di vision cf the common school fund from the legiti mate channel (a project which was never attempt ed except by his whig frit-nds and which was re pudiiited, by a democratic legislature last winter) but was as silent as the tombs upon the subject of his Know-Nothingism. Not one word did he utter on that subiect ; he was ashamed to admit the charge and afraid to t'eny it. The voters of Penn sylvania have a right to know Jus views on this question. He has been called upon time and again to define his position and up to this hour Lis lips nave been sealed. Contrast Lis course with that of Gov. .Bigler H.jw nobly and manfully does Bigler respond to the universal feeling of the democracy on this sub ject. He tpeaks like a man, like a democrat and like an American. He delivered a speech at Montrose in Susquehanna county in this state, on the 31st of August, which is reported in the demo cratic paper, published at that place in which Lc ppoke of Know-Nothingism as fallows : "He, Gov. Bigler, next alluded to the strange political dogmas promulgated by the Whig, Na tive American and Know Nothing Mayor of Phi ladelphia, to the effect that no citizen not born in the country, should be permitted to hold office ; no matter how pure his Character, how strong liis love of the country, how valuable his services. The accident of birth was to decide the civil rights of the citizen. We shall not attempt to give an idea of the biting sarcasm, and burning eloquence of this part of his speech, It was truly great. He ex hibited the flagrant injustice of the idea, de nounced it as immoral as unjust as a proposi tion to disgrace our country ,by breaking the faith of our fathers as plighted in the Constitution. The F".ret orccr of "Know Nothings," who embrace t..e d x-tnne of Mayor Conrad, together with an other dogma that seeks to proscribe citizens from civil rights, because of their religious belief, was next reviewed and rejected as a most insidious, dangerous and unjust measure. He enquired why a secret and oath-bound association was necessary in this country, and argued that if there be politi cal or moral evils amongst us wlueh needs correc t on, that it should Ixf a day-light buskess, that the end shou'd be accomplished in a m inner con sistent with the American character, that they were outspoken andgloried in theliberty of speech an 1 the freedom of the press. Ha invoked all de nominations and all chisses of people to show by the Constitution, that they had a perfect guaran tee agajiit encroachment from any quarter He should stand by it, nor for the benefit of one class or sect, but for the sake of all." - Don't Take. The editor of the "Hollidaysburg Register" is not satisfied with the nomination of Col. Edie. He says : "Cut in the case referred to, we are not satisfied as to our duty. Very conllicting statements pre made about Mr. Edie's habits and moral charac t r, aad uatj we learn better the truth about him c will maintain our reservation. This is written We will not support a man for Congress whoso example and influence is against the Tem perance cause, except as a bitter alternative." JUDGE POLLOCK. It is a remarkable fact that not a single whig paper, published in the city of Philadelphia, has yet denied the charges of the 'Tennsylvanian and Argus" about Judge Pollock's connection with the Know Nothings It is said that he joined the lodge in their very midst, and if not true, they ought to know something about it. It may be as the Alleghanian says, that Sheriff Allen has denied that he was present at the time and place mentioned by the Pcnnsylvanian, when and where Judge Pollock was initiated. But all that docs not prove the falsity of tho charge. Why does Judge Pollock's other friend, Mayor Conrad, re main siUnt so long? If he will publish over his own signature that he was not present, and then if Mr. Pollock will publicly deny it, as he ought to do, if it is false, the editor of the Pcnusj lvanian is bound before the peophs of Pennsylvania toruako cood Ids charge.' He has sought the issue hini- elf and he cannot avoid its responsibility. At a very early day in the campaign Judge Pollock proclaimed his hostility the passage of the Nebraska bill, and yet up to this time lie and his friends permit tho grave and serious charge of Know-Nothingism against him, to remain unan swered, uncontradicted. We hope that Judge Pollock will screw his courage up to the sticking point and deny it : it will settle a very interesting controversy ana w.U place tne wing can diuate where he ought to be, and where his party political societies.

A largo and enthusiastic meeting of the gallant democracy of "Old Washington" and adjoining townships was held at Summitville, on Thursday evening, Sept. 7th. The meeting organized by the selection of the following officers : President rhilip Collins, Esq. Vice Presidents Dr. R. M. S. Jackson, John G. Given, John Ivory and John R. Black, Esqrs. Secretaries John C. O'Neill and Albert 1. Cantwell, Esqrs. Hon. T. C. Shannon, of Pittsburg, was loudly called upon to address the assemblage, to which call he responded in a lengthy and powerful speech replete with eloquence. Judge. S. reviewed the issues, which divide and have divided, since tho formation of government, the two great parties of the country ; he spoke of the amalgamation of the whigs, abolitionists and Know-Nothings at the present time under the name of the "Fusion par ty ;" of the sectional position that the whigs now occupy before the country and their determination to oppose by all means in their power the demo cratic principle that "all power is inherent in tho people," and that, therefore, the people were and of right ought to be, able to govern themselves and form their own laws. To this fundamental doctrine the whigs were arrayed in opposition, and the right and c?pacity of self-government was de fended and sustained by the strong arm and advo cacy of the democratic press and party. He spoke at length upon the honesty, capacity and sound democratic faith of William Bigler; of the ad ministration of state affairs by him in a manner honorable to lumself and prosperous to the Com mon wealth ; and denounced in emphatic language the deception and trickery of Judge Pollock in attempting to reach power through the prejudices and trickery tLat he is now employing. The speak ing of Judge S. is a very peculiar treat. He is, in our opinion, the orator, who fronts the storm and crushes it into silence, who gathers from his audi ence admiration and respect and binds them as a crowa unto him whose eloquent sentences, heard distinctly above the surge of enthusiasm which always welcomes him here.are felt and remember ed, and are impressed upon the heart. His minute and accurate description of parties, their tenden cies and effects the power and richness of Lis language the conscious mastery of his subject built up his audience to the topmost range of en thusiasm and cheer upon c heer welcomed his re marks. Hon. A. C. Dodge, of Iowa, was unanimously and forcibly called upon to address the people, and in a strong, argumentative , eloquent manner referred to the great services rendered the country by the democratic party by the extension of our territory and the wonderful increase of our popu lation, wealth and happiness through the acts and measures of democratic administrations. He allud ed to all the various questions of the day, and proved most conclusively that to uphold the prin ciples of civil and religious liberty, sacred to the heart of man, the policy of the democracy, which party stands upon the constitution, must and will be sustained. He was enthusiastically applauded during the delivery of his remarks. Although he ij now."homeward bound." Gen. Dodge has left behind him in Cambria ardent friends, who have, on several occasions, listened with great pleasure to his firm advocacy of democratic doctrines, and who believe that higher honors yet await him. . Gen. Jos. McDonald, of Cambria, and Jons M. Burke, Esq., of Harrisburg, next addressed the meeting, both in a truly and excellent style. Both gentlemen defended the principles of the de nnicraey and severaly castigated our whig oppo nents, and were listened to with great confidence an 1 delight by the audience. In the delivery of their remarks they were vociferously applauded, and at the conclusion, resolutions were offered and unanimously passed, endorsing the National and State administrations,strongly in'favor of the elec tion of the state and county ticket, and in oppo sition to any secret organization for pohtical pur poses. The meeting then adjourned with cheers for Bigler, Black and Mott. It wag a tn-eat id the "old Berks" of Cambria, and October will j 1 demonstrate that the democracy of that gallant township will be found as true to their party as is the needle to the pole, by giving the whole ticket a tremendous majority. Up boys and at them ! Major Vincent Phelps.

Address of the State Central Committee. We this week publish on our outside another address of the State Committee. This, it is supposed, will be the last, unless somethin should occur previous to the election, to render it necessary to again address the de- tixi I i inostohle paper, and we commend it to the perusal of our readers, especially to those young demo crats who desire to be fully posted in the history of the political parties which luivc existed in our country from the organization of the government down to the present daj.- All the 'addresses that have so far appeired have been drawn up with great ability, and the last one will be worth preserving for f u turc reference. Tickets. Next week we will commence to print the tickets for such of the canaidates on the ticket that have ordere J them. No tickets will be given out until paid for. We have become tired of printing tickets and getting nothing for it. We are now pay ing five dollars per ream for our paper and the highest wages paid for labor dote- in the office, which compels us to pursue this course. Proceedings of tne Conrt.

Great Meeting in Bedford. The Democracy of Bedford County met in the town of Bedford, on Monday, and adopt ed a series of resolutions endorsing the State and National administrations, repudiating Know Nothingism. The following reasons were given for oppo sition to Judge Pollock : 1st. Because he is a member of the secret sworn combination denominated "Know Nothings." 2nd, Because he has sworn not to vote for or appoint to olEce any man who was not born in this country. 3rd. Because he has sworn that he would not vote for or appoint to office any man who believed in the doctrines of the CatholicChurch -nhcthcrr boi II iu thin country or Hot. 4th. Because he has sworn, not to appoint to office any man, whose father was not born in this country, and a believer in the Protestant Beligion. fith. Because he has pledged himself to sign any Prohibitory Liquor Law the Le gislature may pass, thus casting away the great provision in the Constitution which recpuires him to decide upon the merits of a Law, fihouhl he be fleeted tiovernor. Gth. Because he'stauds pledged to the doc trines of "Free Trade," and lias abandoned all the old issues for which the Whig party have heretofore contended. 7th Because he has refused to meet our candidate, Win. Bigler, face to face before the people, thus exhibiting a disposition to conceal his real sentiments from public scru tiny, a course of conduct repugnant to every principle of an American Freeman. For these, and many other reasons which we might adduce, we deem it a duty we owe to ourselves, to our families, to the Constitut ion of the Commonwealth, and to posterity, to oppose the election of James Pollock; and we aecordidgly pledge ourselves, individually and collectively, to carry out the spirit of this resolution. The Turner Jubilee. The Turnerbund had a grand pic-nic at Lemon Hill yesterday. Besides the Turners and their ladies, an immense number of others attended to witness the sport. The cpuantity of lager beer swallowed was astonishing, and the gymnastic exercises and the dancing con tributed is the interest of the occasion There were about 50 officers of the Marshal's police on the ground, and it was thought they would be able to preserve the peace. They lid so up till about 6 o'clock, just before it was pro posed to end the fun. Suddenly, there was a scuflle observed on the dancing platform, and it was evident that a fight had commenced. Lieutenant White assembled a small party of tho police, to subdue the row. The turners then ceased fighting among themselves; the leaders blew their horns, and the men tore up the railing around the platform, to furnish themselves with clubs. A general row then ensued, as the Turners, in as regular order as if they had been drilled, rushed to attack the officers, and prevent any arrests. The of ficers drew their billies and revolvers, and blazed away, but without avail. The Turn ers came rushing on, using their clubs, mis siles of various kinds, and knives, with ter rible effect and the officers were compelled to fly for their lives. Nearly every officer in the party received a blow, and some were very badly beaten. Watchman Samuel Mansfield was stabbed in the back, and very dangerous ly wounJed. Officer Win. Myers was knoc ked speechless. Lieutenant White was struck on the back of the head, and officer John H. Parker was terribly cut about the head. Fi nally, about twenty of the Turners were ar rested and conveyed to the nearest lock-up. Watchman Mansfield and the other wounded officers were conveyed to their residences The condition of the watchman was very preca- nous. We saw his vest at the station-house. It was fairly saturated with blood, and the place where the knife entered, was clearly marked. The weapon used appears to have been a dirk of considerable length. A hearing of the prisoners arrested on Lcmmou Hill, was held this morning. Pcnn sylv. Argiw, Mormonism The Delusion in England. The Mormon delusion is on the increase not only in the United States, but in Europe. The avowal of polygamy as one of the doctrines of the saints, seems to have had no effect whatever in checking the infatuation, and this, too, in this age of literature, knowledge, and civilization. We confess that we are puzzled to understand this matter. The founder of Mormonism was an illiterate adventurer, and the master-spirits of the present day are little better. They have grafted upon their system a most licentious feature, and yet converts con tinue to pour in, and these, too, from the in dustrious, thriving and, generally speaking, moral portion of the population. On a recent occasion in England, a Mr. Riekards was ex amined by the Select Committee on emigrant ships "lie describes himself as 'Preidcnt of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Great Britain,' and 'agent and passenger bro ker ' In this course of his evidence he said: We have about sixty thousand members of our community in this country, including children. The country is divided into districts each with its president, and the work of pros leytisni is proceeding quite satisfactorily Our converts are more from dissenting bodies than from the Church of England. " 'It is not a condition of conversion that they should leave this country within a cer tain time, but it is authoritatively advised that they should emigrate, and gather to the main body in Utah, where our numbers are between forty and fifty thousand. I engage vessels for the emigration. I sent two thous and -Seven hundred and two persons out this year from Liverpool for Utah, but seven hun dred of them were from the Continent. The cost is about twenty pounds rr head. They pay the co4 of their passage'- they can; but we have a tund tor the emigration or poor ar sons who can be well recommended as moral characters and industrious people; mechanics who will be qualified to increase and enhance the interests of the community. " 'About 18,000 have btcn applied this year in assisting emigration; most of the money was supplied from Utah. Those who are aid ed undertake to repay the advance when their' circumstances with allow. Our emigrants are of all classes, but mechanics predoiniuata They generally go out in families. I send them to New Orleans, where there is an agent acting in concert with me, and he receives them, up the Mississippi and to Utah Territory. There is a temjiorary president, authorized by me, on board each vessel, cither one of the emigrants or a person who has come over from Utah; and he has the fpiritual care of the emigrants on the journey. All this is truly surprising What the end will be, no man can tell. The time is not dis tant, when the population of Utih will ben sufficient to authorize the admission of that Territory into the Union as a State. Then the whole subject will come up for discuss ion before Congress, and Mormonism, in all its phases, will be fully probed and investigat ed. NEWS PER TELEGRAPH. LATEST FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF THE ST. LOUIS New York, September 12. The steamer St. Louis from Havre, arrived this afternoon She brings Liverpool dates to the 30th The weather was fine for harvesting. The French troops re-embarked from Bo mersund. and it is exacted will make a des cent on Finland, wesj of Ilelsingfors. The French government has made contracts at Danzic for winter supplies for the French fleet in the Baltic' This indicates the expecta tion of a protracted campaign. The expedition to the Crimea would leave Varna on the 30th August, with 70,000 men and 000 transports. The. Spanish government has borrowed G5,000,000 reals, upon security of the reven ues of Cuba. Queen Christina has quitted Madrid, un opposed, for Lisbon. The Cholera is rather less violent at Varna. The dams eo by fire at that place is estimatod at half million sterling. Omar Pacha, with 25,000 men and 30 guns, entered Buehai est on the 2'2d. His reception was enthusiastic. The Cholera was very bad at Bomersund. Baraguay De Ililliers has offered the King of Sweden 14,000,000 francs for the first month, aud 7,000,000 for the succeeding months, as subsidiary on his actually joining the Western powers. The Swedish diet House Peasants have pro posed to petition the King to take measures to prevent Aland Islands from returning to the Russian dominion. The German papers announce the approach ing conclusion of a treaty offensive and defen sive between Austria and the Western pow ers. The preliminaries are settled. Five ships of war passed through the Great Belt on the 29th, laden with Russian prison ers for England. A telegraphic despatch announces the re signation of th:- Belgish Ministry. Spanish afLLb remain unchanged. There has bi-' ii a royal decree to suppress the juntas of safety. Madrid is comparatively quiet. An impor tant piece of news is however, published by the Paris J'atrie, to the following effect : On the 13th, a deputation composed of the leaders of the barricades and of the clubs, wait ed on Espartcro to request him to suppress the article in the decree convoking the Cortes, which lays down that the dynastic question cannot be discussed by the new Constituent Assembly Espartcro at first replied to the de putation that they ought either to thare the confidence reposed iu him by the nation, or else govern in his place. A long and warm discussion ensued, at the end of which Espartcro, in taking leave of the deputation, recommended them to address their petition to the Council of Ministers. The dele gates withdrew in great excitement. Notwith standing tnese dangerous symptoms, the gov ernment is thought to be strong enough to carry out its policy. LATEST. Turkish accounts of the battle of Kars state the result as undecisive. The loss on both sides was 5000 men. Hassan Pasha was killed, and Mustaph Pasha wounded. Five Russian Generals were killed.

The United Sta tes surveying squadron was moored off the factories for the design of protecting Americ an interests, An arrival, just as the steamer was leaving San Francisco reported that Canton had sur rendered to the insurgents Secret Tolitital Societies. Secret political societies arc not the natural productions of American Boil. They are noxious exotics, transplanted from the Lo houses of European despotism. Our institu tions, the genius of our people, the very at mosphere of Our climate arc hostile to their growth. There is nothing in the tysteni of our government which justifies any portion of our citizens in going stcathily to work un der a cloak of a secret organization, to alter our laws or to affect their administration Freedom of speech is guarrantced to all ),j the organic laws of the country. No govern mental sensorship of the press, the pulpit or the bar, the s.-natc. or the hustings, is autho rized or asserted, and every man may a his pleasure promulgate his sentiments up.,n whatever subject, free from all interference or restraint. The people may meet together when and where they will, and discuss all questions of public or local concern, without the presence of an insolent soldiery or a vexa tious policy to watch their actionB. WLat plea, then, can any American citizen po?sIbly offer for attaching himself to a body of men who are pursuing a course of political con duct which they are unwilling their fellow citizens should see and judge of. It may do in Europe, rotten with the accumulated cor ruption of a thousand years, but upon our vir gin soil, beneath our genial climate, and un der our free laws we have no need to resort to this desperate expedient of an enslaved people to free their necks from the yoke of a tyrant and a despot.
