DEMOCIUTIC
STATE CONVENTION.
*
At the last formal meeting of the Democratic
State Central Committee, it was resolved that the
State Convention should be tailed to meet at Har
risbwrg on Wednesday, the 21st day of .lune inst.—
But, having since learned from a majority of the
CttnuiUec, and been advised by mnny other lead
ing Democrats of the State, that a postponement to
plater day wou'4,on many accounts, be acceptable,
and is generally desired, I hereby give notice that
the next Democratic State Convention of Pennsyl
vania will convene at the Hall of the House of Rep
resentatives, in the city of Harrisburg on THURS
DAY, THE 24TH DAY OF AUGUST NEXT, at
one o'clock P. M,

- The Democratic papers of the State re
respectfully requested to copy.

MASON & HAMLIN'S CABINT GROANS.—
Having taken some pains to satisfy ourselves
respecting the merits of these new instru
ments, we are able to speak very confidently
in regard to them, and to recommend them
heartily to our readers. We have not found
any difference in the opinions entertained of
them by musicians; all value them highly,
and all agree that their superiority to a 1
other instruments of the class, American or
foreign, is indisputable.— New York Euanii

NEW ARRANGEMENT.
Fair Notice to Delinquents.
We have procured and shall hereafter use
one of Dick's PATENT DIRECTING AND AC
COUNT MACHINES. It is an invention by
which a printed label with the NAME OF
EACH SUBSCRIBER, and the TIME vp to vhich
he has paid, will, each week be pasted on
the Democrat. By this arrangement every
man who takes it can toll the precise condi*
tion of his accounts with us. If he has been
prompt in his payments , that fact will np.
pear ;if. otherwise, that fact unpleasant as it
may be, will also appear.
ITS ADVANTAGES,
As will be seen, by this new method
much irksome, unintellectual labor, and
drudgery, in writing the names of our sub
scribers on their papers, each week, will bo
avoided. Besides too, when once we shall
get faiHy at work with our machine, such
a mistake as omitting the name of any sub
scriber, will'be almost impossible, If cur
paper is not then received rtgularly, the
fault will not be ours.
THOSE IN ARREARS,
For Ihe Democ. at will see to it, that
their accounts with us, are in a proper
condition for the "EXPOSE," which we
shall be obliged to make of them, by this
new method of keeping our accounts.
A word to the wise is sufficient.
The Charleston correspondent, of
the New York Herald writes, recently, that
quite a number of negroes, disguised as Uni
ted Slates soldiers, and armed with knives
and pistols, were found patrolling the streets
of that City, and were arrested, after con
siderable trouble. In tho melee which accom
panied the arrest, several persons were kill
ed and wounded on both sides. Were these
darkies carrying out the programme of Sum
ner, Wilson, Kelly &Co ? Their doctrine,
that if the South failed to come into the negro
suffrage and equality arrangement, the two
hundred thousand blacks in arms could be
made available to force them to come into it
and would be so employed, would seem to
indicate, coupled with the conduct of the ar
rested darkies, that the accomplishment of
the programme had already been cnteted up
on, and that the war for the restoration of
the Union would speedily be followed by a
war; for the supremacy of caste. The result
of such a war, ou the negro and his aboiiion
backers, it would need no prophet to foretell
JC3TT hese abolition newspaper editors
told their readers that the war should not
cease until the negro was set free ; now they
say that the right of suffrage f h .11 be exfer
ded to the blacks both North and South ;
aßd in the same breath tell ynu(soldters)
that the war was not for the vegro. Let tha
be as it may, the war has been a curse to the
whole country, and the ichile man in pariic
ular . Seme have grown rich out of the ru
ins of the war while others have been redu
ced to beggary. While secession was grap
pling at the throat of the Government, Shod
dy had her hands into her pockets robbing
them of all their contents, and the result is
a national debt is piled upon the countrv one
fourth larger than that of Great Britain
Yet some of these same crack-brained edi
tors tell their readers that a national debt is
a "national blessing." A grand and uiagnG
icent idea. On the other hand we may infer
that small debts (individual, if you please )are

The Hon. Emerson Eihorcogo, now held
under arrest in Tennessee by the military
authorities for making some objectionable
speeches, has written a long and rambjing
letter to the President. We subjoin a few
exttacls to show the character of the docu
ment.
I rrivc been here five days ; end, though I
have r.ot yet boen able to obtain the names
of my accusers, or a copy of the charge, if
any, upon which I was arrested, I have ob
tained from other sources information upon
which I rely of the causes and motives of my
arrest. lam charged with using treasonable
language against Ihe Government *>f Tenn
essee, and with spsaking disrespectfully of
your Excellency, and of the Right Rev. Win.
G. Brownlow, who, unmindful that the Con
stiiution of Tennessee excludes all ministers
from civil office, is now claiming to have suc
cessfully seized the office of government of
said State. Furthur and truly, that I have
given a professional opinion, declaring that
the slaves in Tennessee have not been made
free by law, As 1 will, no doubt, be held a
prisoner until after the pending election farce
in Tennessee is over, 1 propose to indulge a
portion ef my leisure in giving you a concise
statement of some things I did, sir, and the
circumstances under which I have provoked
the military disdleasure of that grand army
of which you are the Commander-in-Chief.
I told the pjople that the first tune I ever
saw you, you were haranguing the multitude
to prove me an Abolitionist ; that it was a
somewhat "raw and gusty day," and ihat
your vehemence in the open air caused you
to contract a throat disease, from which, un
fortunately for the country, you profess not
to have recovered. 1 alludad to your early
speeches in Congress in which you resorted
to the bitterest personal abuse of John
Quincy Adams, because of his religious, anti
slavery opinions ; to j'our reverential con
fession that God had killed off General liar
rison because he was an Abolitionist. I also
told the people that you, in 1856, in the
State of Tennessee, proposed that every
Southern man should "join in one fraternal
hug," and plunge into rebellion, if Fremont
and Dayton were elected. In addition to
this, I informed the audience that I heard
. you, in the Senate, in December, 1859, de
I nounce Mr. Seward and ihe Republican party
j as wholly responsible for the numerous raid
of'"this old man Brown," whom you then
! stigmatized as "nothing more than a mur
derer, a robber, a thief and a traitor."
1 said, also, that you not only supported I
Breckinridge, the candidate of the avowed
disunionists, but that after the election of
Lincoln, after the meeting of Congress in
December, ISCO, and only one day before the
assembling of the convention which declared
South Carolina <ut of (lie Union, you had,
in the Senate of the L'nited Ssates, made a
labored speech, embracing a part of two days,
in which you positively pledged yourself, in
a contingency which has long since happened
to join these same rebels, "to perish in the
last breach," to "burn every blade of grass,"
and make your grave in "the last intrench
uients" of rebel f. ecdom. I told the people
that I heard this speech (during the delivery
of which Jifferson Davis offered you a most
unprovoked insult, the effect of which 1 will
not now attempt to tato,) and that ever}'
word of it was designed to convince the peo
pie of Tennessee that they were au oppresed
people and you their champion; that their
constitutional rights were in imminent dan
ger, and that they ought "to demand addi
lional securities; that you then and there
submitted the following written "basis," up
on which you declared an unalterable pur
pose "to fight the great battle for our rights "
Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with
our sister Southern States, and freely admit
that there is good cause for dissatisfaction
and complaint on their part, on account of
the recent election of sectionnl candidates to
the Presidency and Vice Presidency c,fthe
I nited S*atss ; yet we, as a p >rtion of a
slaveholding community, are not for seceding
or breaking up the Union ol these States nn
til every fair and honorable means has been
exhausted in trying to obtain on the part of
the non-slaveholding States, a compliance
with the spirit and letter of the Constitution
and a!! its guarantees ; and when this shall
have been done, and the States now in re
hellion nga'nst the laws of the United States,
in refusing to execute the fugitive slave law,
shall persist in their present unconstitutional
course, end the Federal Government shall
fail to execute ihe laws in good faith, it (the
government) will not have accomplished the
great design of its creation, and will, there
fore, in fact, he a practial dissolution, and all
the States, as parties, be released from the
compact which formed the Union,
Tn commenting on ihe foregoing "basis,"
T said it proved that you did then "deeply
sympathize with our sister Southern States
that you particularly alluded to South Caro
lina, whose treasonable representatives were
then assembled, and who, one day after, in
augurated the rebellion ; that you did then
and there admit * * * cause for
dissatisfaction and complaint," because of the
election of your illustrious predecessor and
the Hon. Ifannibal Hamlin, who the Rev,
Mr, Rrownlow represented as a free negro
T said, a'so, that you were then only a con
ditional Unionist ; that you declared voir
self, "not for seceding or breaking up the
Union of these S'a'es until every fair and
honorable m,ans had been exhausted in trv-
Ing tn obtain on the part of the non-slave
holding States a compliance with the spirit
and letter of the Constitution md all its
gnarranro'-s." And T furthur staled that
your reb,t friends, w>lh whom you did so
"deeply sympathize" that "when this shall
have been done and the States now in oprn
rebellion" fmeanine Vermont and Mnjirhii
opt t O • l-n . C X T T
• * (ihe gOTEIft
mer.t) will not have accomplished th* great
design of its creation, And will, therefore, in
fact, be a practical dissolution of the Union/'
I repeat, I told the people that this speech.so
made as aforesaid by you (assisted by Sena
tor Latham, who was kind enough to read for
you,) was designed by you to foment rebell
ion among your constituents. I have select
ed certain passages from that speech to prove
the above general statement. I referred to
that part in which you said "there is no
power conferred upon the Congress of the
United States, by the Constitution to coerce
a State;" I pointed to your ''demand" for
"additional securities" fur slavery; to your
statement that Vermont was, at that lime,
guilty of' nulhfi:ation," of "resistance to the
laws of the Udited States," which you pro
nounced "open rebellion." I commented up
on your statement that the conduct of Ver-;
mont had been such that "the government
was at an end."
I will no further enlarge upon the danger
a wise statesmanship alone can save your ad
ministration, and, which is of the first im
portance to every office-holder, secure your
re election. I suggest this expedient as the
best . Brownlow has any number of courts
in Tennessee. His judges (although our
Constitution requires that they be elected
by the people) have been appointed by him
self. They are true as steel to you and your
glorious administration. Their jurisdiction
is coextensive with their own wishes and
Brownlow's necessities. They are all sworn
to execute his will. Besides, you have Fed
eral courts in full operation all over Tennes
see. Courts are regularly held at Memphis,
Nashville, and Knoxville, for '.he judicial
districts which embrace the State, in each of
which district attorneys, who are good Ab
olltionists, reside. The Judge, the Hon. C
F Trigg, is your friend, and was appointed
upon your and Brownlow's urgent recom
metidation. He vv.ed for you. I never be
longed to ' the land or naval service," and I
suggest, with great diffidence, it is true, that,
by transferring me to some of these many
tribunals for a "speedy trial," the sensibili
ties of the legal profession wiil not. be shock
ed beyond recovery. Failing in this, am I
asking too much when I avow mvself willing
to swallow a dose of that universal panacea
f< r all doubtful cises, the military commis
sion at Washington ? Doubtless it has ju
risdiction of my case, as I aiu accused of con
spiracy. I know it is competent to inflict
that punishment which many of your old
rebel friends say I deserve—hanging—as it
has recently hnng a woman. Don't fail lo
write soon. Direct your private letteis to
Paducah, Kentucky.
May our Heavenly Father speedily restore
your Excellency's health, en large your al
ready powerful judgment and understanding,
save you from being again poisoneJ, as on
the 4'h of March last, and finally crown you
in II -aYen with "the old man Brown" and
all the mighty hosts who await y u there.
Your Excellency will again accept renew
ed assurances of the high consideration in
which you arc ever held by your very hum
hie servant, sincere admirer and offectiouate
friend,

Westward March of the Ch lera.
The malady, which is new scourging
Egypt, is steadily moving Westward, and
ears are entertained in Europe that its visi
tations will resign all parts of that continent
and be attended with the most seriotfs con-
sequences. A letter from Alexandria, dated
June 19th, says :
The measures taken by the government
have proved entirel)' useless to meet the
extent <>f the evil, the first case of which was
observed here on the 10th or 12ih tilt. The
disease prevailed first in the Northwest su
burbs, near the railway station, which are
inhabited by some twenty thousand Arabs
Greeks, and Maltese, all belonging to the
lowest class. It is remarkable that the epi
demic has hitherto only attacked the port of
Alexandra, while hot and populous Cairo,
together with the internal portion of th
country, has remained entirely free. During
the first few days. 4 5 to 8 persons died daily
then the deaths rose to 30, 38, 39, and on
the 17th sixty one fatal cases were reported.
An official telegram from Alexandria, dated
the 26th, estimates the number of deaths
hitherto 1,034, the great majority of which
belong to the na'ivo population. Oil the 2-51h
183 persons died out of a total popu'aiirn of
IGO 000. Large numbers of luhabitants were
leaving the town.
In Mecca twenty two thousand pilgrims
hove died o. the chelera in two months, and
in other parts of Arabia the disease has car
ried off the people by thousands.
In France and England ilie proper author
ities are already taking *! ps to piepare for
the possible advent of this scourge in those
countries. These movement's are not under
stood as meant to alarm the people, but as
the performance of duties which attach to all
those who are entrusted with the care of
'heir fellow men, Sh'ns comirg from ports
in the neighborhood of the infected districts
are to be subjected to quarantine, and goods
of all kinds disinfected before they are land
ed. If such precautions are thought proper
in Europe, should we not b<-gin to exercise
some caution in our separate cities ? Ships
from 'he ports tn the Mediterranean srafrre
constantly arriving at our wharves, and those
of New York and Boston, end in this way
the danger extends to this country. Surely
there is wisd"m in taking precautions which
experience has demonstrated to be useful in
preventing the introduction of contagious
diseases. It will be well for those in charge
of the health of this city to see to the matter

HEAVY ROBBERY,
1 Arrest of the Party and Recovery of a
Large Portion ot the Money.
Sometime in September, 18G-1, the sum of
§lOO,OOO in 5 20 bonds, was abstracted from
the Treasury Department. The matter was
placed in the hands of two of our most skill
i fui detectives, and the result lias shown that
j the confidence reposed in them they have
i justly meried.
No clue was obtained to the thief or thieves
for months, but with increasing energy the
detectives never forgot their profession, and
eventually found a clue to the guilty party.
Tester Jay morning, in New York the ar
rest was at last effected. The detectives
took in charge, near the Western Hotel, W.
W. Whittellsey, formerly a clerk in the loan
branch of the Department. He was taken
to the Police Headquarters, 300 Mulberry
street, where he acknowledged his guilt to
the detectives. lie was removed from there
to a hotel br Mr. McDevitt, whilst Mr.
Clarvoc proceeded to the criminal's house,
Forty-eighth street, near the Secoud Avenue
In the bowl of a chandelier were found 6even
bundles of coupons, each for $l,OOO. Tne
remainder of the boods will also be forth
coming. The officer in charge of their pris
oner left New York last evening on the 7.30
p. m. train, arriving in this city this morning.
He was immediately taken to Police Head
Quarters in this city, where a preliminary
examination was held before Superintendent
llichards. He was remanded until 10 a. n>.
to-morrow, when he will again be called up.
Thus ends another case, showing the won
j drous power of the detective system. In
l this one instance, Detectives Clarvoe and
| McDevitt exhibited great patience and skill,
and though a long time intervened, yet they
were at last rewarded with success, and it
teaches criminals to know they cannot long
enjoy the fruits of their guilty work.
Letter from Ex.President Buchanan,
Among other letters from distinguished
Deroociats throughout the country, the fol
lowing from ex-President Buchanan was read
at the great Democratic celebration at Ilar
risburg, on the Fourth :
WHEATLAND, NEAR LANCASTER. July 2,'05
Gentlemen :—I have received jour kind
invitation to unite with "the Democracy of
Ilarrisbnrg and its vicinitj'" in celebrating
the appr. aching anniversary of our Na. iona
Independence, and regret to say I shall not
be able to enj >y this privilege.
On this hallowed Anniversary let us re
joice that, through the intervention of Divine
Providence, peace has once more returned t"
bless our land. Our joy, however w ill be
tinged with a cloud of sorrow for the loss o
our kind hearted and distinguished President
by a diab' lical crime, ami this, too. at the
very moment when, by w ; se clemency, he
was about to convince the world that peace
has its triumphs as well as war.
I aru gratified to observe that everywhere
through rut the S'ate the. ld Democratic par
ty is renewing the en igies ot f riner years.
I; can never die while the Constitution and
Union shall live. It will be a bright and
glorious day for the people of the country
and this will surety come, th< ugh at my ad
vanced age I may not live to see it when
the Well 11ied and time honored principles o'
mecracy, as expounded by J< fferson and
Jackson, shall regain the ascendancy in the
: administration of the Federal Government.
Yours, very respectfully,

WHAT DOES IT MEAN ?—There is A very
general inquiry what is meant by sending
regiments of soldiers into our Strte to garri
son our cities and towns. Some eight or
nine regiments of Hancock's corps have been
sent North, a part of which have come into
Pennsylvania. One is to he stationed ai
Phitabolphia, and another at Ilarrisburg.
Why is this ? It is said they are io do pro
vost duty; but what duty of this kind is there
for them to be, unless the executive and ju
dicial power is to be taken from the hands of
our Govenor and courts ? Are we to have
, the military rule, wi h its military commis
sions and other engines of tyrany continued ?
If they are sent here to keep the people in
subjection, they are too many. They ate just
numerous enough to annoy the people. We
say to Secretary Stanton, take away your
soldiers there is nothing for you to do in
Pennsylvania.

Sound Legislation
Tho New Ilampscire Legislature, at its re
cent session, parsed an Act which provides
that all incomes from property not taxed,
shall be assessed 25 per cent, tho object of
this law is to compel those who have inves
ted their money in Government securities to
hear a portion of State, County and Municip
al taxation The measnre was sirenonslv
opposed by the shoddy Abolitionists, but
was finally carried by a union of democrats
and conservative Republicans- It is a mea
ure of simple vnd even handed justice which
ought to be adopted by every State in the
Union. As matters stand there is a large
class, ah! 3 to afford it, who do,not contribnte
a dollar, so far as their persoual property is
concerned, toward the support of our home
governments, and what is still more unfai
they are receiving a large interest from the
General Government all of which has to hi
extracted from the pockets'of the working and
industrious classes of the community There
is something radically wrong in our system
of taxation, and the 6ooner the burthen is
equalized so as to bear alke upon a")—the
high and the low, the rich and the poor- -the
hotter it will be for evcybody, bonholders of

Negro \ oting
There are only two State* in the Union
where the negro is allowed to vole without a
property qualification. They are Vermont
and New Hampshire, the former of whom has
only eighty negro voteis, Atid the latter 160.
In Massachusetts every voter must, within
two years, have paid a State or county tax,
unless excused from taxation.
in Rhode Island a voter must own real
estate of one hundred and thirty-four dollars
value, cr of the clear yearly value oi seven
dollars over any ground rent.
A colored person is not allowed to vote in
New York unless he has resided in the State
thiee years, and Is a freeholder in value of
two hundred and fifty dollars, and paid taxes
thereon.
Massachusetts, which docs not at home al
low any man to vote who has not paid a state
or county tax directly , for they all pay it in
diiectly, is very desirous that the Southern
States shail allow negroes to vote without
such a discrimination. She goes in for uni
versal black suffrage at the South, while de
nying it to her poor whites at home. This is
Massachusetts philanthropy, or ptefcrence for
negro to white.
A CONFLICT BKTWF.EN THE CIVIL AND

Detroit, July 17th, saj-s : ' There is an open
conflict between the civil and military author
ities. The commandant at the barracks turn

his house and placed a guard over it. Whit

refused to pay any attention to it. Thus
matters stand.
CsE™rhc Republicans of Crawford county
have taken open ground, in their county con
vention, in favor of negro suffrage. The
secret of this is that Crawford count}' gives
them about 1500 majority and they imagine
their ticket safe on this platform. They have
done the same thing in Alleghany co.. where
