gOLITIOAL_ PARAGRAPHS.
One of the deldgate - : of the lireaft-ana
Butternut Conyeution at New-York,
expressed— the liope that a platform
would be adopted that would « knock
)1— ont o f The New-York World."
The Syracuse Journal says that Buell
' an operation would improve that paper
wonderfully.
The Baltimore Sun says : " It is stat
ed that Mr. Chase did not, in any of
his letters-and telegrams sent to New-
York during the Convention, give the
assurance that h, would support the
party in its nominee, in the events of
himself not being selected. It is now
said here, by the friends of Mr. Chase,
that he will take no part in the contest
probably not even vote ; but if
he should, will east his ballot for Gran t
and Colfax. ' '
The Jonesborough (Tenn.) Flag says
that Mr.. Ezra Mather, Mr. Isaac N.
Babb, and Mr. John S. Mather, and
many other citizens of that place, who
have heretofore been acting with the
Conservatives (so called) from honest
and conscientious motives,'have come
out boldly, and emphatically for Gen.
Grant. Se it is all over the country.—
The Forrest ticket is a pill that can nev
er be swallowed by men who love their
,eountry as they should love it.
One of the Seventh Regiment, which
lately went on an 'excurshn ' to Nor
wich, asserts that at the house of one of
the Reception Committee where a num
ber of the regiment made a call, the fol
lowing pictorial ornaments and none
other, were in the room. A portrait of
Gov. English, one of President John
son, and one of Robert E. Lee, the lot
, ter being decorated with the' Stars and
Stkp•l es. He very naturally inquires :
" What sort of, loyalty or decency is
that which would .exhibit before the
Members of the Seventh the picture of
the arch-traitor, decorated with the flag
which he fired on and they fought for !"
The question is highly Pertinent.
" Gen. J. L. Alcorn, one of the ablest.
'men in Mississippi, in his late - speech
at Holly Springs, paid a handsome tri
bute to' Gen. Grant. He said the South
ern people owed him a debt of grati
tude ; that he had sal' , ed - the nation in
Mercy, and.when the South bad sur
rendered 'her armies, Gen. Grant had
held in check the fierce wrath of An
drew Johnson, who stood ready to :nuke
good his pledge for blood and confisca
tion. He stated that 12 months since
he had written a letter - in which he had
declared for Grant.. He still declared'
foihim as the only hope of pence to the
land: Elect Grant, and all w,ilild be
well ; defeat him, and intestine feuds
andnternal commotion would contin
i
tie i the land, Pressing back our corn
ing rospects, and opening the way to
wider ruin.
DEMOCRATS VOTE TO D 51 .7 1: A 14CII S}
WHITE MEN,';- 7 Twelve hundred -south

Democrats to the House, except one,
voted .against removing the political
disabilities of these twelve hundred.—
We have been told so often by the Dem
ocrats that this is a white man's govern
ment, that we supposed, not unnatur
ally, they would joyfully-;vote to mal,;.e

they call negro rule. The fact .is, We
suppose, that they would iiisfranch*Qe
everybody but the Demodrats ; for .'e

ihave nothing to say against black vote:,

Vallandigham, in his recent letter,
says : "Had New-York withheld her
vote from Mr. Hendricks, Judge Chase
would have been nominated within au
hour." It is well known that Val. is
posted on the sub-drains of the Tam
many Conventieb. He it was who
pulled the trigger of the Seymour gun.
His recent letter will be a good lever
. for a pabinet position in case of Sey
mour's election. He wants to be a
Democratic candidate forcongress from
Gen. • - •ehenek's District, in which
Schenck would take the kernel and
leave Val. the shell.
When Vailandigham was arrested for
treason Seymour wrote , : "If this pro
ce&ling is approved by•the Govern
ment, and sanctioned by the people, it
is not merely a step toward revolution—
It is revolution. It,will net only lead
to milithry despotism—ittablishes
military despotism. If it is upheld our
liberties are over-thrown. The safety
•of our persons; the security of our pro-
I perty, will hereafter depend upon the
arbitrary wills of such military rulers
• as may be placed over us, while our
constitutional guarantees will be brok
en &wa r t? Vallandigham, the traitor,
reziald - that letter of Seymour's by pro
posing hi as the Democratic nominee
for Presid nt.
An amusing incident occurred the
other day at a Democratic meeting in
Jacksonville, 111. While Gem McCon
nell was speaking, a circus • procession,
preceded by music, drove around the
public square, the band playing a live
ly tune ; whereupon 175 or 186 of the
200 persons present left the meetTfig and
ran off to hear the band, or to the show.
At this, filen. McConnell, usually so
amiable, seemed to lose his temper, and,
after pausing a few moments, said :
"Fellow-citizens, it is a bad sign, I tell
you it is a bad sign, to see the people
leave a Democratic, meeting and run
after a d—d monkey show. Such con
duct convinces me that you care neither
for your party nor your principles."
ADMIRAL PORTER ON GEN. GRANT.
—A letter by the Hon. E. Cl. Squier
from Richfield Springs, to Frank Les
lie's Illustrated Newspaper contains the
following testimony by the gallant Ad
miral D. D. Porter in refutation of the
slanders which have been heaped upon
Gen. Grant by his enemies :
Admiral Porter - is a visitor at this
modest watering;place—t h e quietest
and least obtrusive of its quiet Sum
mer denizens, who discuss political af
fairs with moderate zeal, and on whom
the fiery appeals of the partisan press
fall with no more startling result than
is indicated in the following observa
tion from a well-conditioned retired
merchant of our own city. " Of course,"•
said this worthy representative of an
important class, "we must elect Grant,
especially in view of the new revolu
tion now threatened by the Rebels and
their .sympathizers, but what a pity
that the General drinks l"
The promulgators of the allegation

have known him since the commence
ment of the war. Our relations while
cooperating on the Mississippi wereln
timate. They were equally intimate
on Hampton Roads, on the James Riv
er, and on the. Potomac. They have
been so since the war, both in Wash
ington and Annapolis. I haye shared
his hospitality, and he has accepted
mine. I have met him Under all cir
cumstances of fatigue and Of festivity,
in sunshine and. in ~storm, in despond
ency and in danger, and have had every
opportunity of learning his habits and
knowing his conduct ; and I say that,
during the whole period of my acquai n t
anceship with him, I have never known
him to taste, nor have I ever heard of
his - touching, intoxicating liquors of
any kind, not even wine. In common
l a

different, and had it not been that my
motives might be misunderstood or mis
represented, I would have long ago de

it deserves. I repeat, Gen. Grant is de

The Republican Congressional Con
ference met at Williamsport on the 20th
inst., and nominated Hon. Wni. H.
Armstrong by acclamation. Messrs.
R. Boweu, L. D. Taylor, and EZeo. D.
Leib were conferees from this county.
The Conference endorsed the Republi
can platform,. and pledged tiaf entire
support of the Republicans of the Dis
trict to Mr. Armstrong. H will be

Common prudence would seem to dic
tate to persons signing papers at Demo

subscribe their names that no note of

forges Orders for the effects of its vic

to do so seems for Ats interest.

advance upon the prices which then
ruled. On the principle that those who
have most must do most to support the
expenses of carrying on the Govern
ment, this increase of taxes to the indi
vidual is right. _Property must pay
the expenses, or poverty cannot.
The Troy Gazette is shocked at
something in •the Elmira gazelle ridi
culing fundgmental article of the
ereeds i of several Christian denomina
tions. 1 Hooker thinks it is worse be
cause the editor is a " professing, Chris
tian." We look upon it as the egiti
mate fruit of "profession " without
possession. If Christianity can sur
vive modern Democracyiit may well be
declared " immortal and indestructi
ble." - •
To the anxious inquiries of some of
our Republican friends us to the great
changes in political faith,in Wellsboro
we can only say this : The farther you
get from Wellsboro tl4. bigger the
" Boo." That there may be some
changes is quite likely. We know of
none which can possibly affect the re
sult in October and November. Will
our friends remember that when these
Democrats
_blowers do 'not lie they do
nothing ?
Mr. August Belmont is none the
worse for being an 'lsraelite, nor does it
matter that he.is the financial agent of
the owners of half the thrones of
Europe. hut many 'people will fail to
recognize anything apprOpriate in the
control of a great party in a republic by
the crowned heads of Europe. The
great horror of the old Democratic par
ty was British gold. British gold is
now the main stay of that party in its
day of degefieration.
We have a full report of the Seymour
meeting at East Charlestost Thurs
day evening, too good to abridge,- and
therefore laid over till next. week. We
have see and talked with several of
the Republicans of East Charleston,
and are athorized to say that the story
brOught back by the Seymourites and
retailed in _ Wellsboro,—that " hfteen
Republicans joined the Seymour Club
that evening "—is a foolish falsehood—
as usual. The changes in East Charles
will not affect the Republican majority
in the least. The - meeting was made
up chiefly of persons who do not vote
in Charleston in so far as it was Demo
cratic.

TIIE CONVENTION AND Tile TICK-
EMI
We congratulate the Republicans of
Tioga County
_upon the result of their
annual Conyerition, 'held' on the 18th
inst. We remember no Convention in
which a better spirit prevailed, none
which seemed inspired by a greater et - t•
thasiasm. .Its work was well and rap
idly performed and the result is as near
ly satisfactory to every body as like re
svlt ever was. In fact, we have heard
no grumbling frbm any quarter. We
propose to speak briefly of the candi
dates.
CONGRESS.—Hon. Wii. H. ARM
STRONG, who was nominated by accla
mation, had already received a unani
mous nomination in every other county
in the Congressional District. We
. do
not fear successful denial when we say
that our opponents cannot match him
in ability in this district. He is a man
of culture, trained all the accomplish
ments which enter into and make cer
tain a successful public career. Nor can
they match him in uprightness and
integrity. Mr. Armstrong,. Is widely
knoWn as one of the first lawyers in
Pennsylvania. If, any man looks for
any of the traits of the demagogue in
him, he will look in vain. The morel
professor of political trickery will find
no accomplice in him. In private life
pure, as a citizen always just, high
toned and honorable, and as a patriot
above suspicion. Of such men must
the legislators of the regenerated Re
public be, for such only are safe deposi
taries of high public trust. No man
deserves better of his party, an 4 none
will be found whose public career will
more fully justify the utmost of public
confidence. It is therefore in no spirit
of idle boasting that we say .that Mr.
Armstrong will --be triumphantly elec
ted.
SENATOR.—Hon. A. G. Olmsted, of
Potter County, named for this respon
sible place, jewel, and favorably known
to the people of Tioga. He has already
attained to the:highest honors conferred
in the popular branch of the Legisla
ture, and will at once take high rank
in the Senate. No man doubts his tri
umphant election.
- ASSEMBLY.-111essrs. B. B. Strang ,
and Jerome B. Niles, of this county,
nominated for Assembly, (subject to
the decision of the conference) are both
veil-and favorably known ,in the Dis
trict. Mr. Strang is one of the ablest
men in Northern Pennsylvania, and
has already won a high position as a
legislator. Mr. Niles is one of the
ablest and most enterprising of our
younger lawyers and possesses dbilities
which eminently lit him for the dis
charge of legislative duties. As the
Senator is conceded to Potter County,
we assume that that county will con
cede the nominations for Assembly to
Tioga.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY.—Capt. John I.
,Mitchell, nominated for this responsi
ble position has just the abilities and
virtues which lit him for the discharge
of its duties: Pure-minded, upright,
and honorable, modest and unassum
ing, frank and open as the tidy, we shall
provoke no denial when we say that he
is such aman as a virtuous people de
light to honor.
For Commissioner. Won.
of I)elinar, has served in several
capacities as an officer of the township,
and to the general )satisfaction of the
people. He is the only CominisWoner
taken from Delmar since 1840, as we
learn, and will make a faithful officer.
For Auditor, Capt. H. B. Seeley, of
Brookfield, is a young man of sterling
merit, and of education. s He is a 'good
accountant, and will perhaps come as
near filling the place vacated by Mr.
Aiken as any man who could have
been named.
Such is our ticket. It 18 a good one
It cannot be beaten. Let us go at i
and elect it by a rousing majority.
The address of Hon. Wm. H. Arm
strong before the Republican Conven
tion on the 18th:inst., was generally
recognized, and will be remembered . by
those preseti t , as the ablest political
speech delivered in the Court House in
many years. It was a crushing indict
ment of the Democratic party founded
upon the incontrovertible evidence of
history. it aroused the audience to a
high pitch of enthusiasm, thrilling the
auditor asiit convinced his judgment,
and nerving every freeman to the faith
ful diseharge of duty. Heartier and
more en thusiasticapplauseseldom greets
an orator than was awarded to Mr.
Armstrong, who was argumentative,
eloquent, and persuasive, and always
forcible. We.eom mend Mr. Arm Strong's
mode of procedure to our opponents.
He made no charge against the Demo
cratic party which the records do - not
fully and completely sustain.
In the evening a still larg.ir audience
assembled in the Court Room, and was
addressed by Hon. B. B. Strang for
more than an hour. His speech was
thorough and searching, and ranked
high as an argument. He briefly but
forcibly presented the record of the
Democratic party for the last eight
years, showing its vacillations, its
cringing subserviency to the chiefs of
treason and rebellion, ilts alliance with
the public enemy during the great na
tional trial. His remarks were fre
quently interrupted by r applause. When
he had concluded -W. i. Smith, Esq.,
the Chairman, stated that Mr. Arm
sirong was still in town and might pos
sibly be induced to favor the meeting
Atli a brief talk. A committee was
appointed to wait on Mr. Armstrong
and solicit his presence. His appear
ance was greeted with continued ap
plause, and his remarks, covering but
t w enty minutes, were received with
repeated cheers. The meeting closed
talon o'clock. The band was present
and greatly added to the enjoyment Of
the occasion.
`'he frankness of the advocates of
Seymour & Blair in the South delights
us.', R i nke Aldrich lately was granted
a "iDemocratic " reception in Charles
ton; South Carolina, on which occasion
he vaid ;
"This is a grand contest in which we are en
gaged; a contest for constitutional liberty, and
it is rite contest in which we have been enyaged
efface 1861."
Thank yoii, Judge. The truth is al
ways acceptable. We commend the
admission of Judge Aldrich to the
northern people.
'Toombs 00 . ns his "capacious
mouth that he .does not,,refresit our
memories. In his
,Atlanta i speech 'he
said, among other things:
r . The grineking skeletons which hare Inert set
Frl.ll. our uitast as legislato rs - aAail be otteted by
ank Blair, shim OUR PARTY DAS EXPRESSLY
APPOINTED FOR TRAP PDRPOSE."
No man with even a thimbleful' of
brains - doubt; it. Mi. Toombs means
bloody revolution ; so do the! Southern
rebels generally ; so does•Franli Blair ;
but are the masses of" the' Democratic
party in the north hungering for More
blood ? Good people—Robert Toombs
onlyspeal:s the sentiment of the Con
vention which nominated SeYinour &
Blair. Are yonfor Peace with Grant
& Colfax, or War , with Seymour &
Blair?
Our friends must excuse us from copy
ing the braggadocio resorted to by our
opponents. We were never Much at
bragging, but pretty fair at steady work.
As for these. " Democratic gains" so
noisily trumpted by little and big of
Copper vessels of wrath this county,
we are not at all disturbed. It is the
old game. It was tried)ast year here
in Wellsboro. The"' Democracy were
ready to bet any amount that they had
made a . gain of ten from Republican
ranks. Ah, how the day of election
exposed the humbug! We can afford
to wait, oh, Democratic gobblers, and
you eannot. Better get in a position to
come down easy, for down you must
come
If, as Judge Chase lately said in a
charge to a Virginia Grand Jury, " the
national debt is the price of national
existence,"—can it be expected that
the Democratic leaders will set a very
high value upon it?
As the public Debt was contracted to
subdue the Democratic party, and make
it obey the Constitution and the laws
made in pursuance thereof, our friends
must not be so hard upon the Democ
racy hereabout for grumbling about it.
Few men are so amiable as to help bear
the expense of ' their own whipping
without grumbling.

Maj R T Wood from Committee on Roselu
llons reported as follows.:
The Republicans of Tioga County, in Conven
tion assembled, do resolve :
1. That the trial hour of the republic is pot
over, and that wo regard the nation's peril to-day
as not loss than it,was four years ago.
2. That tho fraternizatioof unrepentant rebel
leaders and the Northern Domocraoy in the
Tammany! Hall Convontn 'which nominated
Seymour & Blair, is in itself a threat of revolu
tion; but with the utterandes of Frank P. Blair
and the leaders of Secession, since those nomina
ohms added thereto, the throat becomes a promise
and a pledge, the redemption of wllich is con
ditioned upon the election of those nominees.
3. That we aro unalterably opposed to trusting
doubtful mon'at any time, but more especially do
we protest against giving the reins of power into
the hands of a class of politicians ivho frankly
declare that they will either lead the people cap
tive to their ambition, or force them into another
bloody straggle to preserve their liberties.
4. That wo will leave no Warts untried to re
elect our,gallant leaders ill the State Canvass,—
Gons. John F. Hartranft and Jacob M. Campbell.
5. That as wo trusted Gen. Grant to lead us to
victory in the war for national life, and trusted
not vainly : so, fully and freely do we trust in
him and his gallant comrade 'upon the national
ticket, to lead UB to victory in this second strug
gle for the life of the imperiled republic; and as,
he overcome the rebels in front and their allies in'
the rear then, so, we confidently expect that,
with the old foe united in his front, ho will put
them to final and utter rout in November; and
thus shall wo have peace.
6. That as individuals we hold to the payment
of honest debts, and thrA.t,as a people wo cannot
afford to do less.
7. That Hon. S. F. Wilson is entitled to the
gratitude of his constituents for his faithful dis
charge of the trust reposed in him as their rep
resentative in Congress.
8. That we heartily approve of the administra
tion of John W. Geary Executive of this State
recognize in him the true soldier, patriot, and
statesman.
9. That we will give our hearty support to the
whole Republican ticket, film Grant and Colfax
to county auditor. 1
