' The Republicans of Huntingdon County dr , requested to meet at the respective places oi, holding delegate elections, in the several town• ships, on Saturday the 7th day of' .lAtrch, at i the usual time, to elect delegates to attend a County Convention, to assemble in the Court House inthe Borough of Huntingdon, on 77turs day, the 12th of March, 1857, at 2 o'clock, p. m., to elect delegates to represent the County in a Republican State Convention to meet in Harrisburg, on the 25th day of March, to twat. inthe a State Ticket. By order of the Re• publican County Committee. J. GEO. MILES, Chairman. Hunt., Feb. 24, '57. The Call for a State Convention. A great amount of unnecessary surmising and any quantity of unasked opinions have been expended, relative to the impropriety of the call lately issued by the Chairman of the Republican State Committee, Charles Gibbons Esq., for a separate, distinct, and purely Re publican State Convention, to place in nomina tion an out-and-out Republican candidate for Governor. Most of the journals which denounce the movement as premature and out of order, are of the "Side-door Sanderson" school, which Judas-like betrayed the two parties rot long a go into the hands of the enemy, "for a sum of money." We are slimy to see however, that a few of the staunch and able newspapers which no gallantly defended 'Freedom and Fremont" last fall, are not altogether convinced of the propriety of the movement. For our ,ingic self, we can see no evil in the move. Is it the "Expediency" that May is necessary ? We candidly confess we have tot faith in it. We should profit by the experience of the past.— No organization can become groat, tin fountain can remain pure, which is compelled in order ! to keep up the current, to receive the waters of every unwholesome rill. "Expediency . ' indeed! Is the great Republican movement to become a mere combination of pernicious "Ma. We have, as we remarked some time ago, faith in Principle—none, Lotto whatever, in Frxpedi ency. If it is to become the mere follower of the Jack ceLantern of Expediency—to catch the fragments of this or that party by a little more or less of some apparently popular el. invent—it, like the old whig party, which once —l. r It •.a.t remnant of ,what, was once the great Arnarican party to Pennsylvania last full opposed a union with Republicanism, basing that opposition on the presumption that the triumph of the latter would be the death-knell of the fimmer. Was not argument, and persuasion, and coaxing, and fluttery, and this; and that, and everything presented and used to disapprove this notion ? Well, what was the result? A "Side-Door" in. terview, and Arnold-like, treacherous betrayal. .Fusion - is fo'ly.—poor, miserable expedien cy, which has uo faith in Truth or in the people. The lesson taught in all the States where .the pour shift was tried. rendersall other warninp, unnecessary. And are we again to turn the current of our mighty, deepening river of Re. publicanism, to catch the ivaters of a minter rivulet, fast drying up? For Our part, we have done all we intend doing toward , . c.xipg and flattering men to do what is right. We i ll im more of it. We have no desire to again be come the victims of a 'Side-door" pressure. With this candid yiew, , and believing it to be tho unanimous desire of the Republican 'party of Huntingdon County, we heartily .endorse the "Call" and call attention to the notice of our County Chairman, tbr a convention to appoint delegates to attend the propn:ted State Conven• Son. A pure Republican ticket is what we want, what we will support, and what we must have. No alliances, no compromise of Princi ple, no bonding to Expedien,y.. So we say, so we thinkond so we shall act. Rumored Cabinet Appointments. A telegraphic despatch from Washington to the Philadelphia Ledger, states that it is belie tied by members of Congress and others, both from letters and verbal reports front Wheatland, that the new cabinet will be composed as fol lows : Secretary of Statellon.

Eckel and Mrs. Cunning ham fur the murder of Dr. Burdell, who were accordingly sent to the Tombs. The daughters were released from custody, and Snodgrass was held to bail in $2500 as a witness to appear and teetile.

VALENTINE'S I) ,—Some years since it would have been a work of supererogation to inform mankind (and ,the ladies) that the 14th of February was St. Valentine's Day; but more's the pity, its glory has departed.— Its origin ig n is a sea of doubt—its 'necessity even more Abtful; There can be no ques-.

The custom, however, had got to ho an unmitigated. nuisance. From. be ing the occasion when lqye turn swains sent 'their dearies "a token of atlbetion," the baser sort made use of the day to insult people by ferwardiug to them vile caticaturesor beastly devices. Of necessity decent folks frowned upon the Saint until he is now unpopular enough. There were too many who "stole thy 'livery of Heaven to serve the devil in." It is now a poor husines a, that of selling Valentines. But the mannfacturers have .only theta: kes to blame for the falling off. If they had nut catered to the depraved tastes of the vicioud St. Valentine would still be in good repute—as it is, he has suffered a second martyrdom. his ashes rest in peace, erctr Tho Student and Schoolmate fur lab. runry, in tui our table.
