FOSTER, OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY. GLORIOUS XEWS. Qbx. Henry D. Foster op Wetmoreland Cocntt, tile Democratic Candidate ior Governor. The Reading Convention performed its work well, and its members one and all merit the unanimous thanks of the Democracy of I the Keystone State. Its proceedings from be gining to end were characterized by harmony, enthusaism and unanimity, & in unanimously nominating Gen. Henry D. Foster for Gov ernor, it insured a brilliant Democratic victo ry next fall. The Democracy of Cambria 'know Gen. Foster well; and rHs-therefore unnecessary for us to say anything to them in his praise; They know him to be a man en- dowed by nature with an intellect of the high est order, a profound lawyer, and able States man. destitute of everything that ennstitutes 1 a demagogue, anaccomplished orator, and a Tadical working Democrat. Everything he j says and does indicates the man of cultivated intellect, and finished gentleman, and it is ii-i j . ,. lmnossihlrt to know and not ztpem him. D- .- , i rt .v ur.ng the time he represented in Congress the D- a t. j , 4. r, . . istr;ct composed of the I-iijnfipa of Cambria j j n , i I Bedford and YV estaioreland, he was univer- sally popular with. bis constituents, and was confessedly the leader of the Democratic del- nation from this State. ro Tiiprnhpr rom-!

Uu- . ring the faessions of 18o7 and I808, he was a member of the House of Representatives of J this State, and was decidedly the ablest mem- ber of that body during those sessions.

Hie nomination by acclamation under the circumstances, was certainly a compli ment of which he aud his friends have good reason to feel proud. Although he bad re peatedly stated in the most emphatic and pub lie manner that he did not desire the nomina- tion, yet the moment that Mr. Detrich of Luzurne moved that he be nominated by ac- j clamation. the Convention became one mass of enthusiasm; cheer followed cheer in rapid succession, and tho streets of Reading were boou thronged with a crowd of enthusiastio democrats. The scene is said to have eclips ed that which attended the nomination of Gen. Pierce for President in 1852. It affords not a little pleasure to state that the Democracy of Pennsylvania are once more a unit, and that they have formed them elves into a solid column to battle with the Disunion Black Republicans during the po litical campaign which baa just commenced. As Gen. Foster has never uttered or publish ed anything which indicates that he is either a Lecomptonite or Anti-Lecomptonite, he is equally popular with both factions, and both will support him with equal enthusaism and unanimity on the second Tuesday of next Oc tober. This is no time for the Democracy to wrangle and quarrel among themselves about mere abstractions. The Disunionlsts must be defeated next fall, and this can only be accomplished by united prompt and energetic action cn the part of the Keystone Democra cy. . Sincerely do we rejoce to see the cam paign open with such brilliant prospects of success, and with equal sincerity do we hope that the harmony and good feeling which now exists mar loner continue: Democrats' of Cambria, your first ehoice.your favorite has been nominated for Governor. Prove the sincerity of your friendship for him, by rol ling up an old fashioned majority of twelve hundred in his favor. In order for you to do bo, it is sufficient that you will it. Let us. all then commence the Campaign with a Hub ea roa the Ukitkd Democracy, and nine Cheers toe our Gallant Staxdard Bearer, Gin. ITekrt D, Foitxr. . Death of lion. Philip Soon It is with feelings cf sincere sorrow that we announce the death of Hon. Philip Noon, one of the oldest and tnoet respected citizens of this borough, on last Saturday. morning, in the 7Cth year of his age. He was a native of Ireland, but emigrated to this country about the time lie ar rived at the years of manhood. He shortly af terwards became a resident of this County and thenceforth it was Lis permanent home, lie was never absent from it for a single day, save in obedience to the calls of business or duty, and iu its bosom his mortal remains now await this dread Eummons which all must obey when time shall be no more. Being possessed of a good education, indomitable energy of character, and talents of an eminently practical character, he soon after Lis settlement in this County, attracted the attention of its hardy pioneers, and shortly became one of its most useful and prominent citizens. He was Sheriff 0f tbs County from, we think, 1812 to 1815, andwa3 afterwards lected a member of c. . T . TT ,4 , , the State Legtare. He afterwards filled the office of Prothoootary for a number of years, and was appointed one of the Associate Judges the County by Governor Forter. The last named office he continued to hold until Decem- ber Court, 11. But it was in reIat;ons of private life, as a . , , . , . ... , , . . mlihflTii fiiThAr anil r xm rrt rr ihnt hie nrtnna shone with the most resplendent lustre. His greatest pleasure seemed to consist in rendering those around him happy. The mean spirit of envy foucd no place to his breast, atxi he was afways grateful at beholding the prosperity of his neighbors. "Their welfare pleased him and their cares distressed." Throughout his long life he was a sincere and practical christian, and at least since we knew him, all his serious thoughts seemed to have rest in Heaven. "While he fervently loved the religion to which he be longed, he was no bigot; and it has been truly said of him that he was at the same lime the cDurteous gentleman and sincere christian Never did we meet a man who more sincerely despised detraction, or was more readier to utter a kind word concerning the absent. His mortal remains were followed to their hist resting place by an unusually large procession of those who knew, loved and esteemed him in this life. Mar he rest in perce. Strangers and Neighbors.

One of the most surprising political move ments of the day, has just transpired in one of the Southern States. The Louisiana Legis lature, held at Baton Rouge on the 16th ult the following resolutions was introduced by Senator Salomon: . Resolved, That the Secretary of this meet iug be instructed to inform the Democratic members of the Legislature, now in caucus in the capitol, that we pledge ourselves to unite with them in sustaining the nominee of the Charleston convention. And it was carried by yeas 17, nays 7. Disstressing JYeir 'from Lieut. JfuUan's Expedition. A letter "dated Fort Walla-Wal la, Washington Territory, Jy ember 1st, says: An express "has just riched -' this ' post from Lieut. Mullan's expedition, bringing tho sad intelligence that a severe snow storm had overtaken the party in the Rocky Moun tains, and that many animals had been lost, and men frozen by the severe cold. Two sol diers of the escort, who had been left as a rear guard to protect certain quartermasters' stores, were so badly injured that it was fear ed their feet would have to be amputated. The expedition, having completed 300 miles of road, was still pushing on to a mild winter ing point. The winter is represented to have set in unusually early, and with narked se verity. Danville in Ruins, Danville, Ky., on Wednesday, was the seene of a tremendous conflagration which involves the loss of near ly 300,000 in property, and ruins many worthy persons. UpwardsCpf eighty buil dings were consumed, including the Court liouse, latterton Hotel, three or four chur ches, and the principal business houses of the place, together with their contents. Ihrce squares comprising the most valuable proper ty in the place, are in ashes. Tho wind was blowing a perfect gale when the fire broke out, which swept everything in its path All efforts to subdue the fearful element were powerless. The scene was one of terror, and appalled the stoutest hearts. I'ltls. Post. Expensive irect. A gentleman, a resident oi JNew lork, while en route for Baltimore, from Washington, on Wednesday, accom panied by his wife, when at Kendall Green otation, drew from his pocket what he sup posed to be a pieee of tobacco, but wh ich proved to be a roll of bank notes amounting to two hundred and fifty dollars. Before the gentleman could remedy the mistake, his wife snatched the supposed tobacco from his grasp and playfully threw it free! , the window. The train was through express, and the con ductor could not stop. The loser of the "weed" came on to Baltimore, and returned in the 5:20 train to look up the money, with waat success we have not heard.

A Handsome Compliment to President Buchanan. The London Times, the great organ of British public opinion, in its article on President Buchanan's late message to Con gress pays him a very high compliment, as follows: 'The American political style, though of ten tedious, is Beldom empty or vapid, and any one who desires a fairly written pam phlet on the affairs of the United States for the current year will generally find it in the Presidents Message. Mr. Buchanan, however, is -a man -above the usual rutr of Presidents: i he is the first eminent political man who has for a quarter of a century been raised to the highest office in the States " Governor Moore, of Alabama, accor ding to the Montgomery Confederacy, has appeared "clad from head tofoot in a suit of beautiful trown homespun, of home manu facture," made by the wife of a representative from that State, Mr. Alexander Smith of Coosa.
