Proceedings of the Locofeco Conferee
Meeting.
We give the following, from the Mil intown I
Spirit of the Times," us a part of the political
history of the day.
6 . Annexed will be found the proceedings of the
late Congressional Conferee Convention which met
in Lewistown on the Bth inst. The facts therein
stated may be relied on as true, for they are written
out and handed to us by the Secretary of the Con
vention. As the last person nominated in that
convention is expecting some support from the de
mocracy of this county, we think it is but just and
right to publish the whole proceedings instead of
withholding a part, as the Lewistown Republican
has done—it is due to the people to know how these
matters are managed, and wo therefore cordially
give it a place."
Col. Win. Smyth, Dr. Jacob M. Gemmel!, Gen.
George M'Culloch, Dr. Joseph D. Ard, Hon. Amos
Gustine, and Hon. Joseph Kyle were nominated for
the consideration of the conference, and the ballot•
ing stood as follows.

" Joseph Kyle,
It may not be improper to mention here that on
the 14th ballot, Dr. Jacob M. Gemmell of Hunting
don county was fairly nominated ; a motion was then
made to nominate him unanimously, on putting the
vote there was not one dissenting voice heard, al
though some of the conferees may not have voted.
A motion was then made to reconsider, which was
immediately followed by another motion to adjourn,
which was lost by a vote of Bto 5. The vote to re
consider lying over, several ineffeetual attemps were
made to adjust the matter, when a part of the con
ference left the Court. House leaving the whole bu
tams unsettled. '
After some time it was represented to the sece
ding conferees that the conferees from Huntingdon
had withdrawn the name of Dr. Gemmell, and that
something might yet be done, holding out the idea
that the seceding conferees might get their man, by
way of inducement to get them back, or if they
)vould not go back the whole blame might rest upon
them; to prevent any blame they agreed to return
when on the 4th ballot George M'Culloch received
8 votes out of 13, which was a majority of the whole.
There was no attempt made to nominate Mr.
M'Culloch unanimously as it is stated in the pro
ceedings published in the Lewistown Republican,
neither was the name of any candidate withdrawn
but Dr. Gemmell. A committee was appointed to
wait on the Gen. ascertain his views with regard to
the candidates for President, but that committee has
yet to report to the conference, and the public as
well as the conferees aro left in the dark on that
subject.
From the Mll?interim Spirit of the Times.
The Democratic Nomination for
Congress.
The Convention to nominate a candidate to be
supported by the Democratic citizens of the 17th
Congressional district, assembled on the Bth inst.,
end as it appears, continued in session from the
\ afternoon of that day until 3 o'clock the next morn
ing, and after some twenty balloting at length
resulted in giving to George M'Culloch of Centro
County, eight votes front the 13 conferees present,
the remaining 5 being cast for the Hon. A. Gustine,
our late Representative in Congress. Our situa
tion as the conductor of a newspaper which claims
to be the organ of the Democratic party of this
county, requires, that we should give our candid
opinion in relation to the nomination spoken of—
this we do, after a free expression had from many of
the leading democrats of the town, as well as many
remaining in attendance at Court from the country
—and we do not hesitate to say that we believe the
nomination an unfortunate one for the party—assu
redly so, as far as Juniata County is expected to be
felt in the scale that determines the weight in the
district next October. Because we believe that the
claims of Juniata county to the candidate at this
time, was not only desired, but expected by a large
majority of the citizens of the county belonging to
both political parties, and that their claim was recog
nized and awarded to them by a majority of the
democratic citizens of other counties of the district,
:rod that several of the conferees were appointed
Under an assurance that they would go for the claim
of Juniata; but under the operation of a system of
management best known to those concerned in it,
the wish of the people was disregarded, and a can
didate sprung upon them, who of all the men spo-
ken of for the situation, the people of this county
least expo( ted as a candidate, and who of all then
living that has to do with local interest, has perhaps
the least to expect from them on the score of grati
tude.
The early life of George M'Culloch was spent in
this county, and to the people of this county ho
stands indebted for his rise, as well in a pecuniary
as a political point of view. He inhaled politics first
in what at the time was regarded as a federal atmos
phere. He was nevertheless by a vote of the peo
ple of what is now Juniata county, elected Sheriff
of what was then Mifflin county. The first oppor
tunity which presented itself to evince the gratitude
due to a people to whom mainly he owed his first
elevation, he is found among them sedulously, if not
secretly soliciting their signatures M a remonstrance
against the erection of Juniata county, an object
which he well knew that ninety nine out of every
hundred of the people of the Long Narrows desired
to accomplish. His course in the State Legislature
in relation to this county, with the influence which
we believe he brought to bear on our well meaning,
but untaught and unsuspecting representative who,
confiding in an old friend whose experience in Legis
lative management alone, was his superior, assisted
him and his firiends in manufacturing a Congre.
atonal district with an eye single to the benefit of
George M'Culloch, .and so shaping our senatorial
representative districts as to leave Juniata—under
the present arrangement—without a prospect of
furnishing a candidate for Senate, and with scarcely
a hope that during the district period, her voice in the
democratic ranks of our legislature will ever be heard.
His open, vulgar and ungentlemanly abuse of Gov.
Porter up until a short time before going to Harris
burg last winter as a legislator, might, perhaps, un
der the present excited feeling toward that recreant
officer, seek a palliation, but within even the rules of
decorum, it is inadmissable, and when compared
with his acts of legislation in aiding and abeting the
Executive to carry out measures that have received
the condemnatory sentence of the sentiments of the
people of Pennsylvania, if not inexplicable, is un
questionably at variance with all that is expected on
the score of consistency and integrity in a man of
honor. Is such then the man that has been presen
ted to the people of Juniata county offering to rep
resent them in the councils of the nation—the man
that was pleased in being employed in thwarting the
aorta of his numerous first and best friends to ac
complish the object that they had in view, and the
accomplishment of which the experience of more
than ten years of the comforts and benefits of the
new county, has tended to strengthen the opinion
always entertained by the people of Juniata county
that injustice was done them by those opposing the
division of Mifflin county, has also confit med them in
the want of qua;fication in the man whom they arc
now called upon to support for a high and honorable
office. The man who in his Legislative capacity
has been found actively employed, and as wa believe,
using his influence with others to difranchise the
the people of Juniata county. If such is the man
that has been gratuitously presented to us by men
professing political friendship, and in the face of our
remonstrances, we know of no principle of justice
requiring submission in the people of Juniata coun
ty, nor can we see that our equal rights will be in
any worse condition than they have been by being
suffered to drop into the hands of our political oppo
nents. In the stabs of an enemy there is less poig
nance than when afflicted by a friend, notwithstand
ing the fatal consequences may ho thin same. We
shall therefore be disappointed if the democratic citi
zens of Juniata will not seek that redress from oppo
sition which they have hitherto expected at the
hands of their political friends as their equitable
rights. The Democratic citizens of Juniata county
are not insensible that the numerical strength may
be looked upon by their political brothers of the
counties to which they are attached, as of little ac
count—a consciousness of weakness in conflict for
right, but engenders revenge if the victory is claimed
on the merits of power only. A crisis may arise,
and if we are not greatly mistaken it is nigh at hand
when the beam of the balance which is to determine
the democratic weight of this Congressional district,
must kick without the democracy of little" Juniata.
We say, and the democracy of Juniata say, with
' the present candidate it will not be found.
What is now Juniata county was perhaps for
thirty years a portion of present Congressional dis
trict without ever claiming a candidate to represent
them in Congress. In 1832 Juniata was attached
to Cumberland and Perry. Cumberland and
Perry by a usage long established in Pennsylvania,
was entitled and received the representative in con
gress for four years each. The last two years of
the district was alloted to Juniata, and our derser
ving fellow citizen, Hon. A. Guanine was seleted as
their choice, and without opposition was elected to
the important and responsible post. It is only ne
cessary to say, that as our representative, his con
duct as a gentleman, his attention to the require
ments of his constituents, and his qualifications as a
legislator gave him a standing in the district which
placed his re-election beyond a shadow of a doubt,
with the district unchanged. Under the late ar
rangement, Juniata has returned to the district which
she had long been connected, and she has claimed
nothing more than what she has a right to expect—
the representative in congress for two years longer.
The democrats of Juniata offered as their choice
their late representative whom they knew to be pop
ular and well qualified for the station—he has been
_ _
rejected and th . o well earned claims of Juniata diem
garded. and this we believe contrary to the intention
of a majority of the democratic citizens of the dis
trict. It is said that shortly before the meeting of
the convention to nominate a candidate, a charge
was industriously circulated against our late repre
sentative as being disposed to vindicate all the offi
cial acts of Governor Porter, and another that he
was opposed to a Tariff. The first we believe is
the offspring of the imagination alone, nothing we
know of being said or done by Mr. Gustine to in
duce such an opinion. The desire which ho has
ever manifested for the prosperity and well being of
his native state aro to those acquainted with his feel
ings a sufficient guarantee that he could not be
found advocating either men or measures inimical to
the interests of the people of Pennsylvania. To
refute the accusation of being opposed to a tariff, is
perhaps only necessary to say that his name is found
recorded with the democrats of Pennsylvania on the
passage of the law fixing the present rate of duties.
Mr. Gustine has never withheld, but when required,
has freely given his views in relation to the Tariff;
and we do not hesitate to say that they are such as
would meet the approval of nine-tenths of the people
of Pennsylvania. If we have not been misinformed
this last charge was used by a successful rival for
the nomination to defeat the man who he no doubt
now believes is hound to support that nomination.
It is duo to the Hon. Amos Gustino to say that he
took no part in the efforts made by his friends to
procure his nomination—this is in strictaccordanco
with what belongs to the people—a contrary course
might nevertheless have resulted differently.
We would here remark that had the choice fell
upon either of the other individuals mentioned in
the conference we would have cheerfully united in
his support. The present nominee can expect
nothing from us until he learns to act with some re
gard to consistency.

made use et three doses, which proved both
emetic and purgative, cleansing the stomach
and bowels equal to any calomel I have ever
