At the Inst formal unetir.g the Democratic Ftate Central Committee, it was resolved that the State Convention should be tailed to meet at Har tisburg on Wednesday, the 21st day of dune inst But, having since learned from a majority of the Committee, and been advised by many other lead ing Democrats of the State, that a postponement to later day m>u d,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 •ne o'clock P. M. C. L WARD, Chairman, TOWAKDA, Juno Ist, 1865. I3T The Democratic papers of the State re respectfully requested to copy. The New Arrangement. Wo this week direct our papers with the new patent mailing and acenunt machine, of which we "poke in our last, EXPLANATIONS. On the tinted label or slip of paper con taining tho name of the subscriber, will be noticed certain words and tigures. These in dicate the condition of the subscriber's account as at present appears on our books Thus 'A B 7 Aug. 65," shows that Mr. A.

In such case tbeacc'unt begins anew with this tssue being after that uate, and the first number of the fifth year of lla publication of the Democrat, by us. MISTAKES. .• • t In the hurry of making out so many accounts, we may possibly have made some mistakes. Our attention being called to any such, we will rn-'St ct-eerfnlly correct them *nd make the amende honorable. HEREAFTER. As we shall hereafter keep an account with each subscriber standing in type, which will be corrected to correspond with the payments made each week ; the memorandum date on each label will furnish a receipt to trie sub scriber. If in any c. -e of payment we sliou Id neglect to make the proper credit, or change in the date, we w ill allow and pay postage on a letter giving us notice of such omission. ANCIENT DATE. We regret having been obliged to put down, in many cases, dates as old as 61, 62 63, <fcc. We hope those who owe us from tho6e dates, will take the fir-t opportunity to have the little ti-H-tale label on their papers, give a more ruble reiuirt of ihum Avery on Negro Suffrage "Who according to Republican principles are to enjoy the election franchise?" is a question put by the editor of the niggar organ, at thio place, in his issue of last week, ar.d answered by himself in an elaborate article ; In which he declares unequivocally in favor of negro suffrage. And declares his purpose, to continue to advocate the principle. As Ira follows in the stej* oH.ia prototype •Dd leader, Wendell Phillip's (kpppiirg about a year behind, as a matter of polic\) we >halt shoitly expect to find liitn declaring *n favor of "the amalgamation as a means of peif, cling and ennob'ing ttie pa e faced, puny race <>t ang.o saxons and celt*/'—about a yeat having expired since Phillip's promulgation ol the doctrine. If Ira wishes to degrade himself —or elevate himself (which is it Ir-> ?) to the level of a nigger we have no objection ; nor, shall we at present, argue the point with hint : We would hint to him, however, that a large number of i chile men in this country are not prepared to follow him into the lov ing m :a-e oft f,f e scented i ipo. JG^CThe Cabinet Organs manufactured by Messrs. Mason A llaniltn are becoming great favorites in the household. Their compactness, delicacy of tone, and elegant construction, make them very desirable as ornaments, as well as attractive for their mu sical capabilities. They are different in ma ny respects from other instruments of this class, and thenianufaciuri s haveavaitcd them selves of the highest skiil in wo rkmanship, and the best materials to bring them to per fection Boston Post. C2£"The New York World asks "if opin lon could make a rrmn a traitor, what would become of such men as Giddings, and Sum ner, and Seward, who hwld that the Consti tution wis not the supreme law of the land, but that there was a higher Uw—their own will? If there bo such a thing as moral treason, the leaders of the Republican party were the first moral traitors.'' They ate to day a* black in treason as Jeff Davis himseif. Tito only difference being that Davis came out fearlessly and opposed the Constitution and iaw, while, the aboli tion leaders swear to support them, and theu bserk their oaths and do the reverse. The Censorship of the Press, which has be come one of the daily functions of the War Department, has relented toward the Rich mond Whig, whioti r u suppressed a few week* ago for disloyalty ; and its publication was resumed last Monday, by permission o' the e ■mtnaiiding General of the Di-par'tneot •f Virginia how veiy f'encky all tbi**oande. Joseph Holt. This gentleman, whose singular and unex pected course in ofßce has caused astonish ment and regret among all his old friends, both in Kentucky and the East, wrote a let ter to one of them in Nuvember, 1860, from which we make a few extracts. After allud ing to the prospect of immediate secession in S >uth Carolina, and other cotton States, this letter coutinues: "The border States, now so devoted to the Union, will linger a little while, bjt they will soon unite their fortunes with t' rse ul tr.e Southern States. Conservative men have now no ground to stand upon —no weapon to battle with. All has been swept from them by the guilty agitations and infamous legis lation of the North. Ido not anticipate, with any confidence, that the North will act up to the solemn responsibilities of the crisis> bv retracing those fatal steps which have con d ctel us to the very brink of perdition, po liticallv, morally and financ ally." Speaking of tbe blindness of tho people to coming events, Mr. Ilolt said : ' They know nothing of civil war. This match in the desert of the pilgrimage of na tions has happily been for them a sealed fountain. They know not as others do of its bitterness, and that civil war is a scourge that darkens every fireside, and wrings every heart with anguish. They are to be coro misserated, for they know not what to do. W hence is all this ? It has come because the pulpit and the press, and the cowering, unscrupulous politicians of the North have taught the people that they are responsible for the domestic institutions of the South and they can be faithful to God only by be ing unlaithlul to the compact which they have made with their fellow men. Hence those liberty bills, which degrade the siatute books of some ten of the free States, and are confessedly a shameless vio lation of the Federal Constitution, in a point vital to her honor. We have here presented, from yenr to year, the humiliating spectacle of free and sovereign Snaes, by a solemn act of legalizing the theft ol their neighbors property. I say theft, since it is not less so because the sul ject of the despicable crime, chances to be a slave instead of a bale of goods." Portraying the effect of this upon the S uthern mind, the letter goes on as follow.-: "I have a brother residing in Mississippi, who is a lawyer by prof usion, and a cotton planter, but lias never had any connecti >n i !-. politics. Knowing the calm and con n-rvaiive tune of Ins character, I wrote him a few weeks since, and implored hiiu to exert his iufluence in allaying the frenzy of the popular mind around him. lie has repl.ed to me at much length, and after depicting the machinations of the wretches to whom 1 have alluded, and the Consternation widen eigns in the homes of the South, he sa. s it h the unalterable determination of the South ern people <o overthrow the governnn at, as the only refuge which is left to them fr. m these insupportable wrongs, and he adds "On the success of this movement depends my every earthly interest, the safety of m\. roof from the fiiebnnd, and of my wife and children from the poison tiagv*.* '•I eive foa this langmge,because it truth fully expresses the Southern mitid, winch at this moment glows a9 a furnace in its ha*red to the N-Tth, because of thn*e in'ernal agita tions, Think you thai any people ?an endure this condition of things 1 When *1 preacher infuses into ins audience the. spirit., of assa a sinß and incendiaries * his crusade against slavery, does he think, as he lie 6 do.cn quietly at night, ef the S uthern homes he has robbed of sleep, and the helpless wo men and children he has exposed to all the nameless horrors of sc. vile insurrection* ? "I am si ill for the Uumn, because I have vet a hint, hesitating h<>pe that the North will d" justice to the South, and save the re pub! c before the wreck is complete. Bu action, to be available, must be prompt. It the free Siaies will sweep the liber'y bills from their codes, propose a convention of the States, and offer guarantees wh'ch will afford the same repose and safety to Southetn homes ard property < njoyed by those of the North the impending tragedy may be averted, but not otherwise. I feel a positive personal humiliation as a member of the human family in the events now preparing." OriNioN or STEVEN A DOUGLAS —In the discussions before the people of Illinois just previous to h>s last election to the U. S. Sen ate, Judge Douglas said : "I- hold that a negro is not, and never ought to be a eitizen of the United States I hold that this government was made up on a whtte bas's by white men for the bene fit of white men and their posterity, forever, ard should be adinintered by white men and. none others. Ido m t believe the Almighty made the negro capable of self-government. 'Now I say to you, my tellow-citizens that in mv opinion,the signers of the Declara latiou of Indendence had no reference to the Negro whatever when they declared all men created equal. They desired to express by that phrase, which men, men of European birth, European descent, and had no rrfler ence to the Negro, the savage Indians or < th er inleti< ror degraded races. At th it time every one of the Colonies was a slave hold ing colony , and every signer of the Declara tion represented a slave-ho Iding constituency and we know that none of them emancipated hisslaveß, much less offered citizenship to thtm when they epnoi the Declaration."'

Although we are suspicious of the Lena Luidon mentioned in your paper of Aug. 21, being but a mere myth 'ofyour rage, crafty, editorial brain, the criticism upon her con tributions has evoked a wish to enter, even unbidden, and at imminent peril, into your sanc'um. True there are recorded many in stances of authors being annihilated by the frown of offended editors ; but we are fear less, and cam but little for the anger of one editor. Your criticisms upon Lena's poem, dt.es not prove you to be of that class of ed itors whom Fanny Fern justly styles, " Bill ious wretches, who abuse you because you can write better than they but it does prove you to have little of the gentlemanly spirit that refrains from wourding a young writer's heart, needlessly ; and further, that you might study an English Grammar ad vantag iislj before again praticing the part of a modern Longinue, as your grainstical construction differs as entirely from our standard critics, as "Lena's orthography dif fers radically with, Webster's." Other con tributors, who have sent you articles not of original spelling, but new in other respects, have seen their productions appear, revised with a word or two, to render it ludicrous, and the spelling so novel as to cause them to mentally question whether you had a new dictionary of so recent a date that only ed itors possessed a copy, and their "spelling" was conformed to it, or you had no proof reading done in your office, in order to save printing materials. This exonerates you from the first supposition ; and we will take it upon ourselves to clear you from the charge of accepting anything new, that has not been proved to be good and orthodox, by having met oniversal approbation in its rounds in various exchanges ; and so o'd and venerable it will be certain of respect and credence. Yet, perhaps a few contributed poems and novelettes, original but in or thographr, might take surprisingly with the wonder loving public of this age, and double the circulation of your paper : verbunt s api. enti. We do, certainly censure Lena far thrust ing unworthy rh\mes. and uncouth spelling upon your notice, when we taae into consid eration ynnr mighty labors for the good of the community, that consume so much of your valuable time; and besides we have heatd it hinted that you are of that genu a who wuld rather have manuscripts sent that were rejec'ahle from your co'umns, for their authors having employed a word or phraz- some precedent Enc'iah writer had brought in use, and 6alalle for those of some distent j->urnal®. We spree with yoa that no young writer should be encouraged bv' seeing her produc ductiors in the Republican, for two reasons, first, it m : ght hazard the editrr's hsrd esrned reputation of possessing an nnuusl amount of literary tastes and editorial ability, dis plaved by the increasing worthles*ness of the paper ; secondly, no authors should yen ture to offer their articles, until they are well known in the literary world, unless they are very rich in money —in which esse it will he policv to print their productions, most editors think. Hoping you may soon find lime to prepare a series of articles for the benefit of young writers, we will subscribe our sentiment—•' Suum cuique." LEAH IIALK, Pause and Thiuk. ~ The Bedford Goztllt utters much truth in tlie following The negro suffrage men are at their old game. When they were about to 6tart the "Republican" party, the wire-workers de nitd that they were "Republics; a," Towed that they never would go with that party, oh ! no ! they only wanted to fuse with it for one election, so as to beat the dastard "loco locoes," Well, they did fuse with it and succeeded in d"ing what they intended to; thry carried over their followers into the amis of the so called "Republicanism." Very well The Democrats, then, accused these leaders with a design to abolilionize the "Republican" party. Oh ! how vigor ously they denied it! How angry they be came at the bare mention of the word Aboli Hon ! What! They become Abolitionists ? Never, never: and if their party would en dorse the doctrines of Abolitionism, they would be "done with it" lorever. Such were then protestations ; but no sooner did they find it safe to announce themselves Ab olitionists' then they did so, and to-day there are but few of them who do not glory in t lie shame of their inconsistency. Thus have the masses of the opposition to the Democra cy been led step by step, toward the accom plishment of the ultimate design of the plot ters against the perpetuity of the Republic. Fn>m the very day when the independence of the colonies was established, there were men in this country who opposed a republi can form of government. They wanted, and now clamor for, a strong that is, a consult dated, an imperial guvernment. They have so far succeeded in their purposes, as to es tablish a military despotism, which sets aside the Constitution and Laws of the coun try, and substitutes for them the will of a tribunal, in the choice of which the people have not been permitted to take part In order to sustain this usurpation, they find it necessary to give the ballot to the ignorant colored people whose votes they evpeel to control, and whose enfranchisement, they believe will result in anarchy and the con sequent justification of the permament cs tab*, ishment of a monnrchial form of gov ernment. We implore ibe people to be on their guard. If you wait till Republican leaders show their hand, you will be bound hand and loot. Now is the time to defeat them in their nefarious purpose. Now is the accepted time for all men who love their country and hope for the endurance of the Republic, to strke hands and TOW that the Negro Suffrage Anarchists sball not be suc cessful. Tlte Soldiers 1 Voting I.\v, Shoddy organs are endeavoring to makes little capital against the Democratic party by charring that "every one of its members o the Legislature, orators and newspapers vio lently opposed the soldier's voting amend ment." This if an unblushing falsehood.— No oppositicn was offered to the principle of allowing soldiers that right, by either legis lators, orators or presses, but it was frequent ly stated that the law was raerly intended 'or the benefit of the Republican party, and that Dern >crattc soljiets would not secure generally the right to vote under it becauso their ac'ions were under the control of offici als of the dominant party. The e'ection sub sequently held demonstrated the truth of those statements, for thousand of Democratic soldiers were disfranchised, while the doors to fraud were opened wide on the other side. Tho soldiers themselves saw, and many now acknowledge, that however good the law may bo the execution of it was a gigantic fraud on the ballot-box and a farce upon rep resentative government. The Democratic party, although conscious that the whole intent of their opponents was to carry the election last fall by fraud and force, made no issue upon the soldiers' voting amendment The proof of this is to be found in the fact that in fourteen counties, casting Democratic majorities, the amendment was adopted by Democratic votes. As proofthat the democracy did not nuke that amendment an issue, it is only necessary to refer to the fsct that it carried in the State by one hm* dred thousand majority ! Had the Repub lican party that much of a majority iD Au gust, 1864? If an,then during the throe fol lowing months that party lost no less than eighty \housend—fox with all their figures and frauds they could not exhibit more than a majority of about twenty thousand in the following November. These facts make it evi dent that -'every Democratic legislator, ora tor an 1 press" did not violently oppose the soidiers' voting amendment. A reference to the House journal will also show that, on the final passage of the amend ment, ninety one members voted for and only two against this amendment. Does that fact add any weigh \ to the shoddy false hood? The truth of the matter is, that had the Democratic jarfy of Pennsylvania op posed the soldiers' voting amendment, it would have been defeated. For proof of this e have only to point to the fact that on the home rote in October last the Democracy had a majority of nearly a thousand votes.— Pat r iot <s■ Union, SOLDIERS NOT HANGMAN.— Gen. Sherman lately made a few remarks to some people at St. Louis, during wnich he seized the occa sion of an interruption by a sneaking radical to administer to the Stanton Hunter Holt hangman's arrangement the following cut. Said he : i;' lou have citiis to build, commerce to de velope. agriculture to encourage—everything to do to build up a great nation.

A POOR ASSORTMENT TO SELECT FROM The Ilarrisburg Putciol, of June 13th, pub lished a letter from an imaginary loyal offict holder, to clerical friends, which is one of the best specimen of political satire we have read in a lung period. Alluding to the common and insulting intimation ot so-called "loyal" lecturers that Democrats will be so ashamed of their course that they will want to change their nauies and those of their children, the writer facetiously says : "What shall I change it to ? If I call my s*lf Grecly tbey might think that I wrote the poetry about the "Flaunting' Lie" and the ' Starry Rag." If I call myself Garrison they will 6wear that I was the chap that denounc ed the Constitution of the United States as a covenant with Death and an agreement with Hell. If I call myself Sumner I might be mobbed for saying lhat the man who obeyed the Constitution wasa dog. If I took the name of Wright, who knows but that I should* be followed up as the bowling infidel who said that if God Allinighty did not abolish s'avery,Ae wasa tvr y gieat scoun drel , And I certainly shan't call myself Phillips for fear excited bondholders should lynch me f>r proposing to sep idiate the na tional debt. * * If I have to dr<p my old name and take up a new one you have a d d po >r assortment in the Abolition vocabulary to choese from.

CaTßeecher, in a recent sermon, uses the following language in refeience to south ern society : ."I think the question is.what will become of the whites 1 The blacks are kings and prin ces, compared with the white trash. I don't know what they will do—the best thing for moat of them to do is to die. I hope they will stand some chance in the next world they bsvo't the ghot of a chance in this. Numerical Strength of the urg.-o Popu lation From a yist published in the New York He, aid, it appears that in twelve southern states there are two hundred and fifty coun ties, in which the negro population exceeds the white. The Herald says: "There are many other counties in which the two races are very nearly epual, but with a slight prepondernesg of whites over the blacks. In the counties enumerated the blacks wil be able to elect negroes to the Legislature, vnd iu three of the Southern States— Louisana, Mississippi tD( | 3„ u th Car olina—they will have sufficient strength to control the Legislature and send negroes to the United States Senate. This brings the question of universal negro suffrage up in a new aspect, and forces upon the consideration of the public that important subject in a so cial point of view." Well, suppose the South were to send negroes to the United Slates Senate ; are they not as good as the New England Puritans ? Let any roan in his 6ober senses deny this. The event would only place the two extremes, New England and New Ilayti, on an equality and there would be such a cooing and kiss ing between the Summers, Wilsons, Greelevs and the elegant perfumery of the South, as was never dreamed of in Paradise. Railroad from Ithaca to the Coal Fields. A large and enthusiastic meeting of persons interested in the construction of a railroad from Ithaca to Towanda, was held at Ithaca on the 19th mst., with llou. E. Cornell, Pres ident. The meeting. Resolved. That the increasing demand for the products of the coal fields of Pennsylva nia throughout Northern and Western New York, and the Canadas and ihe West alone demand that a speedy effort be made to open the shortest, cheapest and most av.iilal.le means of transit. Reso\ved, ilia'. as the construction of a railroad from the waters of Cayuga Lake, at I<haca, to the State line of Pennsylvania, at or near Waverly, together wifh the already ex'ention down the Susquehanna, will at unce open the shortest and cheapest way through the lakes and large canals to the Canada* and the V\ est, by which their grow ing demands may be satisfied : ll is there.ore resolved, that our efforts be immediately ap plied toeffict the construction of this por 'ion of the road, as the portion, most iunpor tant to the final accomplishment of the great objects undtr consideration. A committee of eleven wore appointed with authority to proceed to receive subscriptions, and to effect an organization of a company under the general railroad hws of this State, Before the close of the meeting a sum in ad* vance of the amount necessary to organize a company under the pent ral railroad law, was subscribed and proper steps taiien to push 'he enterprise forward.

Sensible.— An exchange gives the following sensible advice ; "Stick to your home paper. No matter if you are poor, remember none are so poor as the ignor ant, except it be the depraved, and they too often go together. Keep your home paper Remember that, if it is not so large av.d imposing ns some, it is the ad.ertiser of your reighborhood and daily business, and tells you what is going on around you instead of a thousand miles away."
