The delegates to the Republican alias People's County Convention, met in the Court House, in the Borough of Ebensburg, at 2 o'clock on Monday afternoon. An or ganization was effected, by calling Ephriani Crum, to the chair, and appointing William Jones and W. J. Nugent secretaries. On motion, a committee was appointed to ex amine credentials and report the names of delegates entitled to 6eats. The committee after due deliberation and consideration, re ported the names of thirty four delegates who were present. A full convention in this coun ty consists at present of sixty four delegates. It will therefore be seen at a glance, that about one half of the districts in the county were unrepresented in the Convention Not a single delegate was present from Johnstown or the surrounding districts. Thero was al so a remarkable dearth of the party leaders and prominent politicians, we were wont to see figuring prominently on such occasions, in days of yore. Mullin had fled ia dismay. Swank was not visible, Kopelin was too busy, tut most of all we missed the benevolent countenance of the noble, the generous, the high souled George S King. Baiker alone remained on the ground to pull the wires, assist ed by Harr, who although badly used, de claied his determination to stand to the rack, "fodder or no fodder." James D Hamilton Esq , of Wilu.'Ore, was nominated by acclamation for the i (Bee of Sheriff. For Assembly Hon. Evan R berts and A. Kopelin Esq., were nominated by dele gates. The Convention then proceede 1 to ballot, with the following result. Roberts, 16 Kopelin, 18 The nomination of Mr Kopelin was then on motion made unanimous, the delegate who made the motion voting aye, all the rest re maining solemnly silent. The Convention then turned its attention to nominating a candidate for Treasurer On the first ballot, Edward Roberts, Esq., received ten votes, 0. B. Ellis 9 E. V. Pnngle 8, rest of votes scattering. Second ballot Ellis 15, Roberts 12. Evan E. Evans 5. The third ballot resulted in the nomination of Mr. Ellis. The votes were as follows Ellis 18 Roberts 11 Evans 5 The announcement of the nomination of Mr. Ellis, was received with three deafening cheers, which shook the Court House to its foundation, and were heard distinctly in Man ster, after which the Convention adjourned for ten minutes, to take the lager with the distinct understanding that Mr. Ellis is to pay for it, the next time he comes to town. A delegate remarked that Ellis would always be found right on the square. The nomination of candidates for Associ ate Judges, was declared next in order. A number of candidates were nominated by del egates. Dr. Lewis of Carrolltown, nomina ted Morgan Evan of Ebensburg, but arose a few moments afterwards, and withdrew the name of Morgan Evan , and nominated Evan Morgan. The Convention then balloted with the following result. Isaac Evans 23 John Williams . 5 Evan Morgan 5 Moses Canou 13 James Purse is The rest of the vote was scattering. j M'-.-vra Purse and Evans, were on motion i declared unanimously nominated. The Con vention then proceeded to nominate a candi date for Commissioner. At the outset it was evident, that Mr. E. C. Mullin, was the first choiee of the delegates, nowever, this ar rangement evidently did not suit the outside politicians. The wires were judiciously pull ed and Mr. James Conrad, of Washington township finally nominated. The name of Mr. M'Mullin was withdrawn before the last ballot, which stood as follows; J. "r7. Myers 4 James Conrad .19 John Elder 11 The Convention then proceeded to nomi nate a candidate for Poor House Director, Mr. Henry Myers of Loretto, received on the first ballot 15 votes. This again alarmed the outside politicians, who immediately went to work and on the third ballot. Rees S. Lloyd was nominated. Howard J. Roberts, Esq. of Johnstown, was nominated for Coun ty Auditor. A County Committee was ap pointed ; M. S. Harr, Esq., of Ebensburg Chairman. The following resolutions were then read and unanimously adopted, after which the Convention adjourned. Resolved, That we go in for free-trade, and sailors rights, the Union and the Con stitution, all the world and the rest of man kind, including niggers. Resolved, That although Abraham Lin coln ain't good looking, and writes weak messages, yet, inasmuch as he fought val iently in the Revolutionary war, and was dangerously wounded at the battle of Bunker Hill, we deem it our duty to sustain him, and he is therefore, hereby sustained. Resolved, That although glorious Andy Cur tin did furnish our volunteers with rotten clothing, wooden soled shoes, and stinking beef, we still regard him as the greatest and purest man in the Commonwealth. His Ad ministration merits, and we hereby declare that it receives our unqualified endorsement. Resolved, That we recommend aU true Republicans to remain at home and do the voting next fall. Let the rascally locofocos do the fighting with the rebels. That is all they are fit for. Resolved, That every man who is not an Abolitionist, and who will not admit that Abraham Lincoln can do no wrong, is a se cessionist. Resolved, That it is treasonable for Jeff Davis to violate their constitution, but patri otic for Abraham Lincoln to set at nought important provisions of that instrument, which old fogys are in the habit of regarding as things sacred. Resolved, That we care nothing about the preservation of the Up ion and the Constitu tion, but are determined that Abraham Lin coln and the Chicago Platform shall be sus tained. Retailed, That all Democrats are traitors and secessionists, in support of which charge, we need only point to the fact, that at least two-thirds of the men now battling in de fence of the Union, and to c ush out rebel lion, are members of that party. Resolved, That we are confident every man on the ticket we have tl is day nomina ted, will come within at least fifteen hundred votes of being elected, and we cordially rec ommend the aforesaid ticket, to the united support of the Republicans of Indiana, Clear field and the other adjoining counties. Resolved. That, We wish we were in Dixey, Ahoy! Ahoy! In Dixey,s land, We'll take our stand. And live and die in Dixey. Table of Distances.

Wood, in to day's paper. n ir. nc.rriL Tnnvnip' I We learn from the Johustown Tribune, that the ''Johnstown Infantry," Captain Lapsley, "Citizen Guards," Captain Linton, "Zou ave Cadets," Captain S titer, of the third regi ment Pennsylvania volunteers, arrived at home on last Wednesday, the term of their enlistment having expired, and they having been honorably discharged. They-were met at the station by the German Home' Guards, and an immense couconrse of people, of every age sex and condition in life; and escorted through the principle 6treets of the town. They were then dismissed, mingled with the crowd, and received the congratulations of their friends. The Tribune in closing its re port says : "We cannot refrain from referring to a fact con cerning the return of our volunteers which strikes us as being rather remarkable at the same tine that it is certainly gratifying. Of the three hun dred and odd men composing the four companies that left Jnhnstown, all but two returned alive, after three months severe service, with Jmt one maimed, but very few on the sick list, while the great majority are really in improved health. One member of Captain Linton's comprny was buried at H.igerstown, and a member of Captain Lapsly's company was left at Ilarrisburg in a dying condition. This exemption from disease and death, we venture to say, U unexampled in the history of any equal number of mn from any one place in the service. We, in common with the immediate friends of the soldiers, re joice in the fact. May they live long to enjoy the comforts of their homes and the respect i.nJ and esteem of their fellow-citizens, to which their patriotic alacrity and zeal in the cause of their country laiily entitle them." Fur the Demoerai and Senlinel. Plattsville, August 2nd, 1861. Jfr Editor Tlie farmers of this part of the county, generally speaking, have their wheat and rye in their barns. The crops here are good, and grin will be plenty after the farmers have thresh ed their crops. Oats will, from present appear ances, be very heavy. Corn looks promising and if the sun does not hurt, nor the frost come too soon there will be the largest crop of buckwheat that there has been fur some years. The rebellion has absorbed amost every other topic, and war news are looked for with the greatest anxiety. I think however, the rebel lion has done one good thing; it has shown the Republicans how ttietr Icadsrs are fleecing, and allowing the Government to be robbed by their myrmidions, and seeing their errors, I hope the true Union men of tli3 Republican party, for there are some who are true blue, even in that corrupt party, will no longer vote for a party which has, and is still committing the grossest frauds, not only on the tax payers, but even ou those who have gsne to protect them. The Dem ocratic party is once more united in Cambria County, and Susquehanna township will roll up such a Democratic majority, as will rebuke the present Republican party, and cause them to get up something else to humbug the people. The Democracy here as everywhere else, go in for the Union constitution and enforcement of the laws. Uxios. fcj- The New Orleans True Delta, in an article boasting of the superior generalship shown thus far in the waj, by the Southern officers, concludes wkh the following compliment to General Mc Clellan : We hear that McClellan. an officer of unques tionable capacity, s:n accomplished, enterprising and successful soldier, is to Ikj put at the head of their invading armies, subordinate only to Lieut. Gen. Scott. We d.t not regret this charge so far as the fame of Beauregard is com rncd ; on the contrary, we rejoice that it has been made. because we know there could be little credit in scattering such troops as have hitherto oncouttered ur he roic men in battle, led on by the Patters- is, But lers, and such like political trash. McClellan is worthy of Beauregard's attention, and while we have not fur a moment a doubt of the result of their first measurement of arms in the field, nor of any later conflict, so far as the honor and repu tation of Louisiana's great s--ldier is involved, we hope when the3' are face to f.ice arrayed against each other, no great disparity of torce nor defici ency of material will be allowed to cripple our side on the eventful rccasion. In the presence of an officer so thoroughly a soldier as McClellan, it will not do for our gallant boys to kleep or be neg ligent on outpost duty, in contempt of their foe ; he will, if any one can, make something of the sons of the Pilgrims, the descendants of the May Flower's passengers, and therefore our complete satisfaction thatonc whom it will be really a great honor to defeat is now to be put at the head of the Liucolu army of subjugation." St. Francis' College. We have been requested to state, that the above named Institution will be re-opened on the 19th inst. Students are respectfully in vited to be then in attendance, so that class es may be formed forthwith, according to their age and capacity, and the discipline of the Institution. It is with both pleasure and confidence, that we reccouimend this College to the favorable consideration of parents and guardians who are entrusted with the care of boys, to whom they wish to give educations, such as wil ena ble them to act well their part on the" great theater of life, and become prominent and useful members of society. The Professors are all ripe scholars, while the discipline though mild, is sufficiently rigid, to secure the proper training of the youthful mind.

LETTER FROM CAMP JACKSON Washington, Aug., 2J 18G1. Friend Murray. I presume you are aware of the llth Regiment leaving Camp Wright, Tuesday July, 23d en route for Ilarrisburg and also of the "Cambria Guards" meeting many of their old friends at Wilmore, some of whom accompanied us to Altoona. We arrived at Camp Curtin at 10 P. M. and aft er supper proceeded to wrap in our blankets and take a ground rest preparatory to going to sleep. At every station worthy of note along the rout from Pittsburgh to Ilarrisburg the llth was greeted with the greatest en thusiasm by large crowds of both ladies and gentlemen. At Huntingdon the citizens had prepared us a bountiful repast which was ea gerly devoured by the hungry soldiers. This treat was entirely unexpected, but was by no means less gratefully received than if we bad known the ladies of Huntingdon were labor ing for our benefit. We remained there about an hour, and with three cheers for the citizens of Huntingdon, and three more for the Stars & Stripes, we sped on our way. We lay in Camp Curtin from Tuesday eve ning till Thursday morning, when we took seals in freight cars, and after waiting two hours, started for Baltimore, where we arrived about 10 P. M, While at Camp Cur tin we received the portion of our eqvipments which had not been furnished at Camp Wright; such as knapsacks, haversacks ic. On Thursday night we encamped in the suburbs of Baltimore, receiving the sarne accomoda tions given us at Camp Wright. Friday morn ing, the llth left its camping ground and marched through Baltimore, to the Baltimore & Ohio railroad depot, and took the cars for Washington city, where we arrived early in the evening Tents were soon furnished but not in time for Company A. to pitch theirs, hence we slept on the ground with the cauvass for covering. I should have stated that the camp of the llth regiment P. II C , is situ ated a short distance north of Washington. Saturday, July 27th, we put up our tents and did every thing the location of the camp would permit, to make ourselves comfortable. Last night our camp and the others iu the immediate vicinity, were thrown into a state of great e citetneot by the sentries firing their muskets, and the drum beating the call to arms. We were soon formed and awaited further orders, which were given in a short time Suffice to say, the alarm was false and we were ordered to retire to our quarters and be ready to fall in at a moments notice when we were next alarmed. We are surrounded by camps on every side. As to the exact number of soldiers in and around Washington, I suppose you know as much as your corres pondent. Some place the lowest estimate at 70,000. others at 100,000 and some at still higher figures. The most exciting topics of discussion in our camp now, are the probability of the llth receiving the amonut due it from Pa,, and the same uncertainty as to whether we will get better arms than those furnished us at Camp Wright. Last Monday the llth or as much of it as were willing, was sworn into the U S. service. Iu some companies the the men refused to leave tho State service until they were pail off. but by Tuesday eve ning all except three or four had taken the required 0:1th. We have received a promise of our pay the last of this week, or the first of next. We are also promised better arms than those we now have, which are altered flint locks. I hope thi last item is true, and that we will "soon h ive nstruments iu our bands that will be of some service ia killing traitors It is now ru uorc 1 in e-uup that we will soon leave for so-ne p ition nearer the enemy. If this be ttue 3-ou will ere long hear of the llth distinguishing itself. The men are eager for the fiay. A few more words and I will close I notice, in the issue of the Democrat C Sentinel containing a letter from Camp Wiight written by one of your corresponients, that his note is commented upon with regard to the number of men who should have enlisted to fill up the ranks of Co. A , from Ebens burg and vicinity. I agree with him iu all he wrote, at that time, and believe it wsa applicable then, but, on our way here quite a number joined us at Wilmore, & Gallitzin and two from Cambria Co., joined at Altoona, so that I have no doubt his remark would not be made now. Yours. &o . H. " P. S. Since writing the above, I learned that the 3d Reg't.. P. R. C, had left their camping ground, on our right and with seal ed orders started for some destination, to be known only when their orders are opened. A baloon reconnoissance also came offyester erday, by the federals. The knowing ones say, things look fightish. An order from Gen. M'Clclan was read to us this morning, prohibiting more than two privates, and one commissioned officer from each company, vis iting Washington on the same day. II fcj- The Memphis Appeal of Saturday, the 27th ult. lays, speaking of the Bull's Run fight : " It is gratifying to be able to state, ujwn reli able authority, that the total loss of the Confed erates in killed, wounded and missing, will not exceed the first estimate, say 2,500. Of these less than 500 are killed. It is believed very few have been taken prisoners." S3T Last Friday and Saturday were the warmest days of the season, in this neck of timber. From about eleven o'clock A. M. to 1 o'clock P. M. of Saturday, the heat was perfectly oppressive. K!7" Rheumatism can be cured by "Dr. Ice land's Anti Rheumatic Band."

Perhaps no one has ever before been hunted with more assidiou. malicious vituperation and falsehood since the battle of of Bull Run, than myself. My naire, I am told, has been a by word in the streets of Washington and its bar rooms for everything derogatory to my character. It was stated that I had deserted to the enemy; I was a traitor, being from Maryland, a sympathiser; gave the order to retreat, was in arrest; and now, by Col Richardsons report, drunk. I shall not copy Richardson's report, but correct the errors he has committed, leaving t his future days a remorse he may feel at the irreparable injury he has inflicted on an old brother officer.

I accompanied these troops a part of the way, endeavoring to collect and - halt the routed soldiers. I returned o Center ville heights as Col. Richardson with Lis bri gade were coming into line of battle, facing Blackburn's Ford. His position was well chosen, and I turned my attention to the placing of Davies brigale aud the batteries. A part of Davies' command was placed in echelon of regiments, behind fences, in sup port of Richardson ; another portion in re serve, in support of Hunt's and TittalTs batteries.
