Want of space for bids any remarks at present upon the mer its of either of 1 hem. further than to say, that they are two of the best men of their respective counties, and deserve the cor dial supportjof the honest voters of the dis trict. Let this be given them, whatever the result. BLACK RKCUBLICAN SOLICHTDE.—The excessive love of the Abolition Jacobins for the negro reminds us of the tales of those Italian banditti, who shed tears over the death of a tavorite dog, and afterward cut the throat of a benighted travelerr The religion and practice of the Abolitionists are about on a par with the piety of those Ital ian scoundrels; both classes can sanction the greatest crimes, and afterwards goto their closets and dole out a prayer for the remission of their sins. So we go. MADE A GOOD THING OF IT. —Mr. E. G. Koss, the editor of a Kansas paper, who was appointed to fill the vacancy in the United States Senate, caused by the death of Senator Lane, has made a good thing of it. He hurried off to Washington : got there on the 15th of July, and was imme diately sworn in. On the 28th, Congress adjourned, and he started back with a snug sura for pay and mileage, amounting to nearly SO,OOO. lie will probably be su perceded by the regular election when the Legislature meets, but he has got his pay lor three days, service, at the rate of about $2,000 a day. gW Disunion-radicals ot all stripes and grades are just now busy traducing the character and record of Hon. lleister C'ly mer, the Democratic candidate lor Gover nor. For the benefit of all honest men wc take the following item of his record from the proceedings of the State Senate, on the 11th day of January, as found on page 74 of the Legislative liecord. The extract tells what Mr. Clyiner's position was thus aarly in the great fight between North and South—at a time, too, w hen the cause of the government, was far from flattering, — JBr. 6'lymer said : " I am here, to-day, to deny for myself, and I believe for the great body of the Democratic party of this Slate, that they recognize anything like the right of seces sion of any State. I deny, I say, the right of any State to secede, and I go further, I tell you that the Democracy of this State, with one heart and feeling applaud the gallant Anderson for his defence of the property of the United States. If he should go farther still and allow no flag but the Stars and Stripes to float within the tange of his guns, I for one, would say amen to his deeds. There I staud, I say that South Carolina has no cause for se cession or rebellion, and that it should be put down by the strong arm of the Gov ernment." THE MASS MEETING YESTERDAY The Clymer and Johnson Meeting held | at this place yesterday, was indeed a mass \ meeting of the friends of a restored union 1 and an unmutilated Constitution, De spite the unfavorable condition of the weather, the drenching shower in the morning, and the threatening clouds during the day—which kept hundreds away—the attendance was numbered by thousands. From the mountain-tops the hill-sides and the valleys they came, with flags, banners, mottoes and emblems of the days of An drew Jackson ; all eager to attest their de votion to his principles, now so sternly de fended by Andrew Johnson —the second patriot statesman of Tennessee. The meeting was called to order by L. C. CONKLIN Esq., chairman of the Demo cratic Standing Committee. The following persons were then chosen as otiicers of the meeting. President —HON. J. V. SMITH. Vice Presidents —A. O. FTLY, C. SHER WOOD, HIRAM HITCHCOCK, FORBES LEE. DR. JAMES KELLY, THERON VAUGHN, Ani- KA GAY, JOSEPH FOX, E. D. THOMPSON, E.N. BACON, ROUT. C A TON, IIAKKISON COMSTOCK, JOHN AGER, S. T. FLCMMER FELT, Titos OsTERHOLT, TFLOS- J. WAIGHT, JOHN W. CRAWFORD, S, 11. SICKLER, Secretaries —HARVEY SICKLER, HEISTER HEELER, N. P. WILCOX, J. G. FASSETT. The President addressed the meeting briefly and pertinently, after winch he in troduced the HON. HEISTER CLYMER, Democratic candidate for Governor, wlio in a most telling, convincing and eloquent speech, held the large audience spellbound for upwards of two hours. To attempt au an epitome of the masterly address would be idle. The speaker to be appreciated must have been seen and heard. No man who did see and hear him could have fail cd to be impressed by his supe-ior talents ; and the honest, fair and temperate manner in which he discussed the great question at issue before the people. The absence of the lion. Montgomery Blair, who it was expected would be pres ent, was satistaetorily explained. While it would have been gratifying to many to have met and seen to distinguished a man ; all fell that the time allotted to speaking could not have been better employed than it was by him upon whose words of wisdom and eloquence the masses dwell with such delight. The rain in the morning had deferred the starting from home of the different township clubs and delegations, so that np to near midday our town present-d quite ; a deserted and Sabbath-day appearance, j At about 11 o'clock they began to come and from that time on to 12 o'clock and after, there was one pet feet avalanche of four horse teams, two horse teams, buggies, horsemen and pedestrians, pouring into the town from everv direetien. Little Lemon, with a tine delegation, was the first to make its appearance. Then came Washington ; then Nicholson with its long train of wagons filled with men and women, like an army with banners; clos< ly followed by the unflinching Democracy of Falls and Overfield, Then came Forkston, Windham, Mehoopany, Monroe, and our other tratis-sttsquehanna townships. Me shoppen too, came in both by land and bv water. The nicely fitted up and well crowd ed boat, sent marching up through town, headed by a band of martial music, its long line of-'fair women and brave men." The tramping of horses, the huzzas of the mul titude, the waving flags and banners", the rattling drums, the ear piercing fife with the sweet and mellow strains of music from our brass band, made the scene one of the most animated and interesting ever wit nessed in our town. We are more than justified in saying that this meeting was the largest and most enthusiastic political gath ering ever held here. The facts will war- rant us in saying too, lliat a more sober, quiet, orderly meeting of such numbers was never held, anywhere. Jt is difficult to deloimine with accuiacy from what direction the largest delegation came. That from Nicholson had the ap pearance of having that hovor. The ban ners from Mesh op pen and other localities were very tastefully gotten up, with telling mottoes. The large and splendid one brought in by the Nicholson delegation deserves especial mention. Its brief and emphatic motto: • EXCLUSION an<l SECESSION * I alike OPPOSED to the UNION. : embodies the diep setted, abiding sen ti nnnt of the true patriotic men of all parties, everywhere. Let the masses take tluse as the watchwords of the campaign, and make tlie welkin ring with the refrain un til both these hydra-headed monsters shall be sunk into graves of merited oblivion and contempt. The evening being stormy, no public speak ing was bad. Our young iads and lassies, am ong whom the worthy President: of the meeting was prominent, improvised a hop at Wall s Hall, where the grace and beauty of the town met and tripped it with "light, fantastic" until near the "wee sma' hours ayont the twa\" Our good l lookiug candidate was present, for a short time, and, although not joining in the dance ' seemed well pleased at the innocent amuse ment of his friends. Thus closed the dav, which will belong remembered by all who were present —And thus closes our hurried account of its interesting, stirring incidents. The Congress Question. COMMITTED, in view of all onr convic tions and opinions, against the re-election of Mercur to Congress,we have looked with interest if not anxiety upon all movements , and discussion concerning the selection of his antagonist. And we are now glad to announce the probability that Hon. Wil-1 liam El well, President Judge of this judi-| cial district, will he named as such with a fair prospect of election. ""Upon looking j over the whole field, and giving due con sideration to the antecedents and views of men who are to support a Union candidate, no inore appropriate ar.d acceptable name can be suggested. With abilities of a high order, he has a record of past service and of personal conduct which will recommend him to all Conservative Union-loving and patriotic men, whether their associations have heretofore been with the one or the other of the great parties of the country. Twenty-two years ago in the Legislature of Pennsylvania, William Elwell drew our great statute which abolished imprisonment for debt, and which yet stands among the laws of the Commonwealth a monument of humanity and of the advancing civilization of the age. Four years ago, upon invitation, he came to this country and settled among our peo ple. The invitation was given in the form of a unanimous election to the office which he now fills, and which he has adorned by his learning, dignity and urbanity. lie has become known everywhere in this judi cial district as a just,humane and able judge, who has so borne himself in his high office that pope Jar confidence, respect, and at tachment have concentrated upon him in a most eminent degree, and no one has been base enough or bold enough to asperso either his character or his official conduct. By bis training and habits of a lifetime be has become familiar with our laws, whether State or National, and fitted for labor in their enactment or amendment. — Congressional duties would be discharged by him with an intelligence and tide ity which would leave nothing to desire. Be sides, he meets one popular requirement, now pressing and important,more perfectly than any man in this- Congressional Dis trict. That requirement is a candidate who stands comparatively free from recent par tisan contests, and upon whom men who have been heretofore politically opposed to each other can cordially unite. The issues of the hour demand united exertion and combined effort among all who think the comp'ete unitv of the country essential to its existence and welfare. And it is expe dient. if not necessary,to that united action , that those who carry the Union banner in this new conflict with all that is detestable and injurious in the world of politics should command support and inspire confidence beyond the limits of any political organiza tion. Judge Khvell has been to a great cttont for some years withdrawn from participa tion in party contests, though an attentive observer of public events. Before his eje vation to the Bench he was not regarded as an ardent politician, and enjoyed the confi dence and respect of political opponents as well as friends. At the present time he gives his thorough adhesion to the manciples announced by tbe Philadelphia Convention, is devoted to the complete re-union ot the States, and is content to stand along side of men engaged in the redemption of the country from all disunion management, in fluence, and control. IFe do not think that two thousand i* an unreasonable estimate of tlie majority which can he given in this county to Wrn. Elwell in a contest against the present mis representatire of this Congressional Dis trict. — Jiloomsburg Col u m hi an. Congressional Conference. At a meeting of the conferees of the counties of Bradford, Columbia, Montour, Sullivan and Wyoming, composing the 13th Congressional District of Penn'a. held at the Exchange Hotel, Dloomsburg, Sep tember 6th, 1866: Present T?. if t J C, S.

EL WELL, was unanimously nominated as can didate for Congress. Mr. Jackson moved , that a committee of two be appointed to ! inform JUDGE ELWELI of his nomination, I and request his acceptance of the same, which was carried ; and Mersrs. Jackson and Aramerman were appointed said com mittee. On motion of Mr. Derrick, it was re solved that we adopt the resolutions and address of the Great National Union Con ' vention held in Philadelphia on the 14th of August last. The Committee appointed to wait upon JUDGE: ELWELL, returned with that gentle man, who, in a few brief and pertinent re marks accepted the nomination. On motion, it was resolved, that the next Congressional Conference, meet at Danville on Thursday, next after the first Monday of September, 1868. On motion, resolved, that these pro ceedings be published in the Conservative papers of the District. JOHN MeREYNOLDS, Ch'u C. S. RUSSELL, Sec y. 1 IIEY AOKEE:. —Greeley, through his Tribune, calls Thurlow Weed, an •' infa mous old villain,' and Weed, through the Albany Journal, says Greeley is "an old grey haired scoundrel. These two men have known each other intimately for over forty years, and no doubt tell the truth. PERFECT EQUALITY, Alexander McC'lure said at the nicotine in Bedford : " THIS NATION CANN()T SURVIVE THIS SHAMELESS DIS CRIMINATION ON ACCOUNT OF COLOR AND RACE; THERE MUST BE EQUALITQ BEFORE THE LAW." Broke Up* The great National Union Convention of Mongrelists, held in Philadelphia last week, broke up because it couldn'i help it. It was a singular affair for professed Unionists. The Northern negroites did not unite in the mixture, because they did not like the Southern ingredients, and were atraid. — They kept aloof, floated about as moths round a tallow dip; shook hands with ne groes, drank wine with Fred. Douglas and Anna Dickinson, and talked negro. The Western men kicked at being bro't to Philadelphia on a Black Swan 'mission without having the privilege of kissing ttieir first love ; but their kickiwg was of no avail. Strange that loyal Unionists couldn't form a Union. Butler andSchcnck came into the Phila delphia ' Convention" arm in arm. The Boston Pout says they represented the arm y and knav-v. Woise and worse. The Border_Statos, after trying hard to keep on terms of peace backed square out, and absolutely seceded I What a Union! What consistent Un ionists ! Anna Dickinson scolded; Fred. Doug lass stormed ; M'Michacl took more Port; Bill Kelly wriggled ; but all would not do. The great National Unionists, refused to unite, acknowledged secession ! broke up ! fizzled out! and so ended the farce. FRED DOUGLASS AS AMALGAMATED OR : MISCEGENATED.- -The Radical Convention j in Philadelphia was obliged to accept and to hear Fred Douglass, who in the course of a speech of some length, among other things, (quoted elsewhere) said : " I am here as a representative, and a representative ot' a multifarious constituen cy such as, perhaps, no other man in the Convention can be said to represent' (white and black.) [Laughter.] Douglas is all right in reference to his own personal miscegenation ot races, as the repiesentative type of the party in which he is a leader. It is black and white llayti,—mulatto, over again,—Ja ; inaica extended, the mestizo, quadroon and , ''picayur.e" of Central and Spanish Ameri ca. In Ins own person, lie shows the strng <'le to be for the amalgamation and mis ccrenation of r ces, and the Radicals ac cept him as a leader for the contest. Remember. REMEMBER that the great feature of the Constitutional Amendment proposed by Congress is a bribe to the South to adopt negro suffrage. The State that allows ne groes to vote is to have its white popula tion represented. It half the population of a Stat; is colored, the State will get twice as many representatives in Congress if it adopts negro suffrage as if it does not REMEMBER that the delegates from ''the unreconstructed States/ in the "Southern Loyalists' Convention" at Philadelphia, have declared in favor of unrestricted ne gro suffrage', and the whole of t''at Con vention were only deterred from taking the same position by fear of political conse quences in the North. For this weakness they were soundly berated by Miss Anna Dickinson and Fred Douglass, whose ha rangue* received the enthusiastic plaudits of the assemblage. REMEMBER that at the caucus of loyal Governors just held in Philadelphia, almost every one present cqp'essod himself in fa vor of negro suffrage, but the majority con cluded not to commit their party to the doctrine because the sentiment of the North is "'not yet educated up to that point."— They asserted in debate that if the elections were lost, all would be lost; but that if tlie elections were gained, all would be gained, including negro suffrage. RKMKMUKK that last week in Philadel phia, for the first time in tli3 history of the United States, whites and blacks commin gled in w fiat purported to be a represent a tive Convention of the people; and that John W. Geary figured in that Conven tion. was invited to a scat on that platform with its officers, and was enthusiastically cheered by its members ! CHEERING SlGNS.— Every day brings us additional proofs, that the friends of the President and his policy will stand shoul der to shoulder in the fall elections. No matter what party they have acted with heretofore, a common enemy and a com mon cause will induce every true patriot to make any sacrifice to restore the Union, and save the country from another war.— The iron heel o f fanaticism in its mad ca reer is now attempting to crush out State rights, and if successful it will soon seek to extinguish State lines. It there ever was a time that eternal vigilance was the price of liberty it is at the present moment. We believe that the intelligent masses of the country will rally against any attempt at centralization. — Ex, John W. Geary says that it is right for the laboring tax-payers of Pennsylva nia to be compelled to pay one million, six hundred thousand dollars a month to sup port the Freednun's Bureau. Voters, is it right that the fruits of your labor should go to the support of idle negroes who are as able to support themselves by work as you are ? No, it is not! Since General Grant and his Chief of Staff composed a part of the audience att the interview between the President and the Philadelphia Convention Committee, the Jacobin papers have dropped the Gen eral like a hot potato. They don't see any negro in that fence any more. The world seems to. be uncommonly rough for the Jac obins just now, and they are very much in the predicament of the fellow who was un der a tree which was struck by lightning— slightly confused. The old saying—"Great cry and little wool"—can't be applied to the Philadel phia Geary-Douglas convention, for it was ushered in with a great cry and has turned out all wool. The *ew Bounty, We take the following article on this 1 important matter to soldiers, fromjthe Phil. Ledger , of Friday : '• There appears to be great trouble at Washington about the evtra bounty recent ly voted to the soldiers by Congress. The Paymaster General reports that he receives fifteen hundred applications for this bounty per day, but is unable to do anything more than file them away for future reference, as there are not any funds in the Treasury not already appropriated, and the Special Commission having the subject of payment of the extra bounty tinder consideration, have not yet reported. It is the opinion of the Paymaster General that these claims cannot be adjusted for some months." And this is the law passed by the party who call themselves the 'soldiers' friends.' It is a mere sham, and probably the act will have to be referred to the next session of Congress for interpretation and revision. No such mistakes were made in the *Freed men's Bureau" bill, in the "Civil Rights" bill, or the bill to increase the pay ot mem bers of Congress from $3,000 to $5,000, — When they are working for the negro or themselves they make no mistakes, but when it comes to doing anything for the white soldier, they make at the last hour a law that cannot be executed. The S3OO bounty to negroes is now being paid.— White trash, stand back ! The change in the public feeling to wards the ruinp Congress is shown by the attitude of the press of the country. It was but yesterday, almost, when the majority of the New Yoik city was Jacobin; to-day only one paper (the New York Tributv) advocates the Congressional obsruction scheme. The country press are following suit. The Hanger (Maine) Times has left the Republicans and come out for the Dem ocratic nominee for Governor. The Ilun tingb n (Pa.) C larlen is the last convert to the right side. In taking down General Geary's name from its columns, it says: " Before, and at the time General Geary was nominated, and since then, and up to the issue made by the llarrisburg Tele graph, that the larger General Geary's ma jority, the sterner will be the rebuke admin istered to Andrew Johnson ,' we were hi> friend, but we could not feel certain at any time that bis election was sure, because one fact was pressed upon us,that the Jaco bins would use and abuse him. . All the Decency, In the Radical Convention in Philadel phia on Thursday last the following scenes occurred, which cannot fail to shock the moral sense of every right-thinking man in the community. Mr. Hamilton, of Texas, read the dis patch in Wednesday's paper of last week, relating to the President's visit to the Northwest. On r ading part of Mr. Seward's speech, and inquiring whether the audience desired Mr. Johnson for King or President, loud cries of "Xarv one" w ere heard front all parts of the Convention. A Delegat —Ne, sir; we'd see Andy Johnson 305 degrees into hell, with Bill Seward and Montgomery Blair on top of bint, lit at. lV.rson Brownlow gave utterance to these disgusting remarks : Some gentleman,not through any unkind feeling toward ine, but through a mistaken appreciation of my motives, lias said that we were afraid of the negro suffrage q :c>- tion and sought to dodge't. (Fhy, I should feel disgraced now and forever if I felt doubtful on any subject of national concern. I never was claimed ori both sides of any question, and never intend to be. While 1 am satisfied with what hasbren done, lam the adi'ornte of negro suffrage and of impar tial suffrage. [Great applau-including "three cheers for Brownlow.*'] I would sooner lie elected to any oifi -e under heav en by loyal negroes than by disloyal white men. [Applause.] I would sooner asso ciate in private life with a loyal negro than a disloyal white man. 1 would sooner be buried in a nt tiro graveyard than in a rebel graveyard. [Applause.] If I have after death to go either to hell or to fa area,l shall prefer to go Wth loyal negroes to hell than with traitors to heaven. These sentiments, it must be borne in mind, were uttered on the floor of the Rad ical Convention, in the same hall in which Anna Dickinson and Fred. Doulass spoke, and before the same body which received with enthusiastic applause General Geary, the disunion candidate for governor. "The pity of it—o, tire pity of it!"' Where does General Grant Stand f It is with the President —is one of his supporters. This adds to the passion of the Radicals. They have claimed Gen. Grant cheered him, dined him, feted him and "loyal leagued" him. They have boasted of his popularity, and make invidi ous comparison between him and t ie Pres ident ; hut already General Banks, on be half of his party, proclaims their dctermin ation to drive him out of office and appoint a new commander-in-chief; and they are confounded bv the remarks of the Presi dent, when in the presence of the most distinguished citizens of New York, he turned to the General and said : "I helpe l my (listinjrtmhml frienl—Grant—to fi?ht the rebelhop of the South, You all remember his peculiar phrase, that he was going to fight it out on that line. I was with him, and did all that I could. We whippdd them at that end of the line, and I want to say to you here that I aui Sghting at the other end. and : f :te is not m the field now in military sense, he is where he does good servioe. Whilst the Jacobins are busily engaged in finding out new ways whereby the South j may be debarred from representation in the council of the country, the tax collec j tor is no less busy and prompt in calling on ' the impoverished States of that section for their quota toward keeping the Govern ment going and assisting to pay the sala ries of the men, in Congress and out of it, , who makes use of their official positions to torture and persecute the Southern people.

Conventions and Singing Schools.--Mr L, I 15 Powell of Scranton is making auite a specialty this ! season of the Singing book trade He has a large | stock of Emerson's "Jubilate" and "Harp of Judah." The 'Key Note," "Coronet," "Snnnyside," 'Giee I Book " and other popular works for sale by the ; hundred or dozen at the wholesale pr ces. Sad and Fat il AH'air —A Sunday school pic nic was held near Centreinoreland, ou TtrursJay, of last week at which there were large numbers from the schools of the surrounding townships brthof this ; and Luzerne counties. Everything immediately I connected with the Pic Bic passed off very agrees i bly to all present Alter the close of the affair, a 1 young man, from near Troy,Luzerne Co,, named, Ira ■ Scbooley, w.ts at the "corners" with a horse and | buggy, which he left standing in front of the Hotel, 1 he I eing in the house. A young man by the name of Thomas Jaques, a resident of the place, who was considerably in'oxicated, got into the bug" gy, 11 drive off The bystanders seeing his con dition, prevented him from doing so. Sehooley, j coming out of the house about this time, drew his whip to strike Jaqucs, but was stopped by those I present. Jaques, was then taken out of the buggy, i lie then commenced taking off bis coat and advaa j eing towards SehoOi-y, when he stumbled and fell ! down. Sehooley, who was or tha other side of th huggy ran around to where Jaques was, and ash® ho was partly up, give him a violent kick upon tb® sid?of the neck Young Jvques dropped down and immediately expired. A post mortem examination by Esq. Lutes, with Dt's. I) ma and Thompson, as examining surgeons, disclosed the fact that the neck bone, or spinil column, at or near the joi it of junc tion with tie houi was dislocated. Sehooley was token in charge ; and after the examination, lodged in jail at thi* place to aw.tic hisjtrial for the killing, No one, of couise, rrgre's tha result of this rash and inconsiderat. act more than Linisclf. We learn that he has a wife bat no chiliran living. Jaques was quite a young, unmarried man. of highly respecta ble parentage who had served in the army, as a sold er, until severely wounded in the head It is said that strong drink, to which he wis at times addicted, in conjuclion with this wound on the head j tu :de him. while under its influence, partially in sane. Il is raid, too, that the prisoner had been in dulging somewhat in the • poison." This sad affair is but one, of the instances of al most daily oc-uirente in our midst which show the harmful and tenible results of too free a use of that, ) which not onlv stimulates men, but transforms them into fiends, foolish or mad men Married.
