PEEFADENT AND GENTLEMEN OF

formed.me that you have nominated
me as a candidate for (loverniv of the
Common Wealth of Pennsylvania, and
eon furred upou l me the distinguished
honor of being. the stamiardloettrer of
the 1 Zepublieau party for the approach
inl4 political contest. [Cheers.]
ror this manifestation of vontinued
eonlide•tee and appreciation 1 feel that
any language f competent to com
mand is entirely too poor to express in
ppropt late terms the emot ions of my
heart, and no other resource is left, me
then frankly to return to you, and thro'
you to my fallow-citizenit whom you
repre 7 sent, my sincere thanks and grat
itude.
The nomination of Hon. Henry W.
Williquis for Judge of the Supreme

I hot position, and induced me to place
him where he now is. [Applause.]
The remarkable unanimity that has
l•havaeterized your action ii, teference
to Judge Williams and myself inspires
ine with high hopes and brilliant an
ticipations. It argues with certainty a
favorable and triumphant ratification

ise of a glorious day'in action." - When
1‘ contemplate the labor, anxiety of
mind, and responsibility that must no
ec:-.;arily be devoted upon me during
the canvass for nn election of such
imignitude, a consciousness of the difti
ties surrounding the talk causes-me
almost instinctively to shrink frarn the
undertaking. confident's' liihk
to a higher'. Power, and to my fellow-
Q. fui7 Wilt gtroport, and en
couragement which maS• citable me to
- tet-r the Republican ship with safety
through the breakers of the coming con
flict. Satisfied that my trust is not
misplaced, I unhesitatingly accept the
distinguished honor that has been con
forred upon me by this honorable ton
vention. [Cheers.] •
Three years -ago a similar honor was
conferred upon me at a period when
our nation was just emerging from a
most terrible war; and with the dust
of battle scarcely brushed from my own
garments, and politically inexperienced
as I was, 1 ardently entered upon the
contest which resulted so gloriously for
the Republican cause in 1800. 1 did ntt
accept the nomination theu in the be-
lief that in my own person I possessed
any instrinsic merit, or had rendered
any service:4,4'6 my country which, en
t it led me individually to receive it; but
I accept it as a compliment to my com
rades in arms, and as a. matter due to
ihe three hundred and sixty-three
thousand soldiers of Pennsylvania who
had rendered noble services in the field
the aggregate value of which can never
he estimated, and to whom we are in
debted for a home and a country. On
i their behalf I then warmly thanked
the convention, and I hero desire to re
iterate those thanks again tto you. And
now, after having served the greater
portion of the term for which I was
elected, and after every official act of
mine has been fully criticised and dis
cussed by the people and the press ;
when you, the chosen representatives
of the people from every part of the
Commonwealth, \appear at the bar of
public opinion ar testify in, : my be
half, and confer upon me the plaudit,
• • NV HI done, good an faithful servant,"
I certainly need no better, no higher,
no stronger verdict. [Applause.]
In bearing the banneX you have ,this
day confided to me, I pledge - you that
it shall be carried at the\head of the
Republican &Amin), its \movements
sliallaliVelys be directed to the sound of
the heaviest firing; and when„ the eon
, Met Is over, I confidently predict the
banner will be 'placed, as it was in '66,
in triumph upon the dome of tht Cap
itol, without spot or blemish on its
stripes, and each aita ' , every star \ as
bright as when its first effulgence
beamed on the country, and PetinsYl \ -
' yank', will still be as true as when she,
signed " the sacred covenant that binds
the States together in the bonds of an
everlasting union.'' [Cheers.]
Should the people agaiti.place me in
the executive chair, I will continue to
use my best exertions to proniote every
where ttpe peace, honor, and welfare of
my natiA'e State, and to secure all the
blessint; that a good government can
liestoW upon a free people. And it
shall he my pleasure to aid the Chief
Magistrate of the nation in his lauda
ble efforts to " let us have ,peace," and
if necessity should require kt I will aid
him to preserve our national rightsand
national honor at all hazards and every
sacrifice. It shall lie my special duty
to extend all the influence I may pos-
Sess to aid in procuring adequate pro
tection for every branch of-our domes
' tic industry and productiOn*, and to
see that exact justice shall be done to
the mechanic and the laborer, as well
as to the capitulist f and, as far as possi
ble, to make them' feel that their 'true
interests are one and inseparable. [Ap
plause,]
As a candidate it shall be my con
_ start aim to extend, strengthen, and
confirm the unity and good feeling of
the 'Republican 'Arty, and in this work
I sincerely invoke the aid of every true
Republican. For my owripart, I will
not, recognize divisions /or factions in
the party, litit will from this time forth
Itiok- u n ipo only as united, harmoni
ous, patriotic, and enthushuitie in the
development and 4.terfnieefion of the
great principles and me,asures of prog
ress for\ which it W:Viorganized. I have
kneink3 in whose punishment I

The itepowiew, party has a preuti
record in the past, and a glorious fu
ture before it. It has accomplished
more good in a shorter space of time
than any other organization that ever
existed, and we haye retion to rejoice
that it still lives, and moVes, and has a
being. Among its achievements is the
abolishment of slavery. That scandal
to humanity and opprobrium of the
nation lies dead amidst its worshipers.
The rights and priVileges of all men
are secured in their lives, their homes,
their labor, and their persons. All men
are protected because they are men,
without reference to race or color. In
the language of Abraham' Lincoln,it
"cares for , him who has borne the lat
tle,.and for his widow and ids orphan,
and seeks to achieve and cherish a
lasting peace among ourselves and with
all n'ntions." Each individual is arii
mated with love for the Union and for
universal liberty. NeVer was a Re- '
publican found guilty of firing into the
flag of his country and shooting down
its brave defenders. The party has
sacredly decreed the payment of the
entire debt incurred to save the life of
the nation. In a word it has defeated
the nation's enemies, saved the Union,
and caused it to be more highly re
spected and admired throughout the
civilized world than ever before. [Ap- .
plause.]
Friends of the four hundred thous
and heroes who died for the country,
.with such a glorious record how can
you surrender your Government into
the handset those who would have de
stroyed it within the last six year if
they could? The Union is the ark of
our safety. The republican party has
proven itself the true friend of the
Union. Sustain the Republican party
by victory, and you will thereby sus
tain the Union. And suffer not unre
pentant rebels and their sympathizers
to touch the hallowed sanctuaries of
either State or National Governments.
Then let us here "highly resolve" to
preserve forever the former in•" Virtue,
Liberty, and Independence ;" and to
protect, defend, and perpetual() the lat
ter, let us here pledge anew " Our lives,
our' fortunes, and our sacred honor."
Gentlemen of the Convention, again
I thank you:

remarks, was enthusiastically applaud

-FOR 00VF.RNOR
GEN. JOHN W• GEARY,
07 CUMBERLAND COUNTY
-FOR JUDGE OFAIR SUPREME COURT
HON. H. V. WILLIAMS,OF ALtEariENT dOUNTT.
The soreheaded fat,ernity are snarling
at Gen. Grant. Pitch in. The General
has heard sounds louder than thunder
before now.
The July Treasury statement shows - a
decrease of the Public Debt, in. June, of
$16,410,132,51. The decrease since Mar.
lis $36,460,779,43. A pretty good be
ginning.
Messrs. W. H. Smith, of Tioga, and
Issac Benson, of Potter, represented this
Assembly District in the late State
Convention. S. D. Ball represented
this Senatorial district.
It is reporteu o 1 - arbour', of tbv
Bradford Argus, really expects to see
the Democracy again in power in Brad
ford County. There would have been
roe* for hope if the .Argua had not
got 4 over to the enemy.
A Washington Correspondent reports
an interview with Andrew Johnson.
That must be a mistake. • Andrew died
some months ago, and was buried with
his fathers. Can it be that the corres
pondent is a " inejium ?"
The National Intelligencer, Washing
4on, has suspended publication. Its
death was as natural an event as the
decease of a man at ninety: The paper
was an anomaly in journalism and an
anachronism of the age. It was an un
sucessful attempt to reproduce the di
dactics of the Spectator and engraft
them upon American daily journalism.
We qe, sorry for Mr. Allen, who is as
big in thotight as in body, and who
would be useful if once tempered on the
42d parallel.
We publish in another, eoitnnh the
address of Gov. Geary too the Conven
tion which renominated him, and the
i
platform upon which he• s to make the
campaign. The resolutions, as will be
seen, are short, practical, and incisive,
and the issues simplified. .In fact,,'the
issue is—shall we mainiain the suprem
acy which we have honorably won,
and thus have time to establish peace
and prosperity on a firm and enduring
foundation, beyond the power df the
enemies of law and order to overturn.
We vote " ay." The enemies of the
institutions which give value to this re
public will vote " no." •
To comprehend that the devil is ral
lying lkis forces fora grand onslaught
upon the peace of the world, we have
\ ouly to consider the fact that closing the
liquor shops of the City of Pittsburg
On Sundays has brought the whole pack
up* the heels of the friends of law
and Order. The whisky ring now pro
pose tO \ stop the clergy from preaching
on that \ day. This is strictly 'in accord
With the logic of that class of thinkers,
which proCerds upon the prenLiss that,
one thing being legitimate, everk - other
thing may he x legitimately done on
Sunday.
We find some people credulous enough
to believe that certain Pennsylvania
politicians are endeavoring to bring on
a war with England. Messrs. Forney
and Curtin are credited with a conspir
acy to let loose the dogS of war. - We
read the Press daily and tknd no war
rant for such a belief. We have read
Gov: Curtin's late farewell speeches
and find nothing therein to warrant
such a eonciusion. That there is any
formidable combination to force a s war
between this and any - other nation, we
do not believe. But if there be, the
people will take care that the movers
have all the blood and glory to them
selves. War with Britain does not
seem imminent. It is not probable,
even. Neither country can afford it,
nor can the press of either or both
countries involve the governments in
a passage at arms. Let us have peace,
and so give the productive interests a
cliance to build up the country.
WHO COMER EIeaLEP
John China Man, with yellow skin,
almond eyes, wide trowsers, and inevit
able pigtail.
What shall we do with him? '
Let him alone. He wants. to work—
ari 'uncommon want. Let him. work.
The country needs more workingmen.
It wakes not much difference what
language they speak, what hue they
sport, or what idols they worshlP. If
John Chinaman worships Joss, prove
to us that Joss is wars() than Cash, and
we'll admit that John is agreater heath
en than ninety-nine of American Chris
tians.
Yet—John's arrival creates disturb-
About 1200 arrived in San Fran
sisco a week ago. The telegraph sent
on the news, and in an liour some peo
ple who have more zeal than faith, and
more impulse than philosophy, cried—
" what shall we do with these godless
idolaters?"
allee
Let theta alone. Who is John China
man, and who are you who assume to
sit in judgment? Is he not industrious?
Is. not an industrious, . frugal, sober
heathen better than a lazy, improvi
dent, drunken Christian ? Do you have
to voyage' to China to find idolaters?
No. Every other man and woman you
meet thinks oftener of•something ma
terial, And values it more highly than
things spiritual and eternal. Those
Pucky-like, hideous images we some
times see in museums, are no more
idols than the white skins, the taper
fingers, the " wealth of tresses," and
the last new pants, dress, boots, etc.,_
which we Christians bow down to. The
Caucasian has come to value the color
of ills skin higher than the grade of his
character. There's idolatry for you!
What shall we do with John China-
I an? Let him alone, we repeat. When
ritons and Americans went to China
• make rnont+y-, the Serene Emperor
Flowery Kingdom atonce called
his panecs together and asked—" What
shall we do with the outside barbar
ians?" How indignant the great Brit,-
and the " greater " American peo
ple, were at such treatment! Why,
weren't we Christian white men? and
were we to stand any such " demnition
nonsense from a .yellow-faced, pig
tailed runt of a heathen ruler? Yes;
and by no no means. " Buy our opium,
eat it, and become Christian brutes !"
said Britain. " Buy our notions and
nonsense; and thank God for the uni
versal Yankee nation !" said America.
I'll never consent to derive a revenue
from the vices and misfortunes of my
people !" replied the Emperorof China.
Well. What a pity such an answer
could not have proceeded from the lips
of a Christian ruler. How noble it
would have been, how proudly quoted
in thejournals, how profoundly respect
ed. But the Yellow Emperor was—
well—yellow of skin, and ;named his
God Buddha, venerated Confucius, and
set up for the biggest, wil3est, best, and
all that sort of thing.
So, regarding the refusal to speculate
upon the misfortunes and appetites of
his people as a covert thrust at those
Christian nations which for so much
cash, license men to demoralize society
with whisky, Britain 'sent a few war
ships over and taught Fung Wang (?)
the alphabet of civilization. Later, the
United States battered down a few
heathen foits, with the laudable object
of en rich ing a few American merchants.
It is easy enough to dispose of John
Chinaman. Consider him a man. That
covers the ground. He is a\ man, with
like instincts, and different training.
We don't think much of his Jose, but
have no fear of him. We don't vener
erat Confucius, though he stands neck
and neck with the wise men of all ages.
John Chinaman's religion does not
trouble us at all. Christianity will; do
him good within half a century, and if
God had intended him to enjoy its
blessings before, John would have en
joyed them. At all eventp, no man
need • advertise his Christitinity with
us, and then say that there shall be one
law for John in the Courts, and another
for Jonathan. We give notice that
John has ,one friend ; and if he will
work, and be a good citizen, he may
build as many temples as he pleases,
,and mumble-jumble before ugly bits of
wood to his• heart's content. He can't
beat St. Albans if he tries. Let John
work for Jonathan. Pay him good hire.
Live out your Christianity and so con
vert John by sheer force of example.
Never mind dogmas ; never mind spe
cific creeds. Show John that the God
of Christendom is the Father of all
gods and let the showing be'by example.
Confucius was just as wise as his time,
and:wiser than most•modern statesmen ;
yet pe was yellow. Bah ! .
Come along, John Chinaman. The
new world wants you. Its natives are
getting aboire work, and there are sights
of work to be done. We would prefer
you without much Joss, but come along,
-Joss, and all. If you want to-build a
temple in the City of New York, do it.
If you want to build a temple in TiOga
County, come along.
.It will do for a
Church in twenty-five years, and you
will have abolished vJoss by that time
There are a hundred or two lazy fellows
in this region for - whom fifty Chinamen
would be amp]e in exchange. •
If we would Settle the China question
rationally, we'ilhave but to let John
borne along and work. This country
has aavertised extensively as the asylum
of all nationalities. If we meant it, let
us shut up, and welcome all national-
ties. If we did not mean it—if it was
all bunkum—let us hide aw4y in our
shame. John cannot be worse' than the
race of demagogues. After f
t ur years
of Andrew Johnson at leas fifty of
John Chinaman seems possible and en
durable..
That is very pret i ty and a very silly
fiction, now current in the Democratic
papers, to 'file effect that the wind, on
the night of DecoratiOn Day, whisked
the flowers and evergreens from the
graves of Union Soldiers in the Arling
ton Cemetery, and laid them tenderly
upon the neglected graves of the Con
federate dead. That the flowers were
robbed from • the graves of the Union
dead we can believe ; and it is not very
difficult to believe that windy Demo
crats did it. We are not among those
who ?bear hatred Or, or would punish,
the Confederate dead. They fought
bravely and died like men. It is for
the rebel living that we point shafts.
-Dr. Pratt has associated with him in
the printing business Mr. T. S. Do
Wolfe, late of Bath. Mr. -De Wolfe
has no superior as tf printer, his work
receiving the highest praise. The Doc
tor still conductd the - , paper, and, as
ever, will give the best local paper pub
lished anywhere.
The Imbecility of the civil authori
ties of the loWer anthracite regions is
painfully illustrated in the frequent and
dastardly outrages committed by law- sp'
less agents, of''i
. the Unions. Gangs of
men set upon single individuals and
beat and stab them with impunity. The
day is coming when no mail with
particle of self respect will consent to
an alliance with the Unions for any
purpose whatever. iTheseorganizations
were conceived in a good spirit and for 13
legitimate objects. At present they are
greater despotisms than Europe can
complain of because a set of dema
gogues have control of them, and do
control them for their selfish ends.—
.Every man mAy elect whether he will
work for a certain price, or not. But
no man has a right to say, and no man a
shall say, for us, that we may not work
for just such hire as we can command.
Every workingman should take the
stand that his time is his own, to sell
at the best market price. And when
any set of men combine to keep any
other set of men idle, the law ought to
be strong enough to arrest the conspir- o I
ators and punish them accordingly.
