lion on Saturday, nominated Dr. Bennett, for Rspre.en
taive, John English for Sheriff. Joseph Demuth for
Treasurer, Mr.. Frankboner Tor Commissioner and j.
c. iIance for Prosecuting Attorney.
This is packed nomination. packed in the Grand
Jury with closed doors, and feel bound to give
the public statement of the manner in which it was
effected. We were not present. aud therefore have to
depend on what heard from delegates, and other per
sons who were present. ,,.s..
All The townships bnt three sent in their Delegations
Dover wasn represented because they were gwen to
understand their candidates for Prosecuting Attorney,
and for Sheriff, would stand no chance
When the convention met in the Court House, the
editor the Advocate, who not,a Delegate, o(ic-
ated, and made speech the Substance OF which was,
that the party going sticks and that without
perfect nuanimy and understanding before they went
lOto business, things would break up in general row.
He knew the discordai elements of which this con-
vention was composed There were the Englishsmen,
the Wey men, the Augustine men, the Sargent men,
and last though not least the regular Butt. He
knew the pejndices that existed against Philadelphia
he was also aware that Philadelphia was the county
Seat; 1t had the public buildings, including the court
House, the sheuls ece the treasure Office the Au-
dors aiae, and The Jail and therefore it mustbe the
County Sea-. lie hoped ihat matter was now settled
Then this being the County Seat did il not follow asa
matter OF course, that the snartest men lived in the
County Seat! Hethought this clearly proved. He
believed IN the maxlm, "s he honest, is he capable9"
and as long cond be found IN the County Seat,
who were both honest and capahIo what Use was there
in going out oflhe Comfy Seat for officers. He meant
dsrespect to his fellow citizens in other parts Of the
county, bnt be must tell them that they were Jackasses
fthey didn't believe the sfnartest men lived in the
County Seat. (he President here called him TO ORDER
Stating that slch language might be considered person.
ally He dsclamed any intention of being personal
either to the President, other person. Ho used
the term general expression Not as applying to
any one individual But he would not tresspasa any
longer on the time ofthe Convention. te would con-
clude, by suggesting at the Delegates 60 up into the
Grand Jury room and there make out their ticket. He
suggested this because he afraid to let the "le
kes" their proceedings but because they could not
see them up there"
The delegates left, and what was done to reconcile
matters in the Grand Jury room with the door locked
know not but suffice il 10 say, that men who came
to the convention pedgei to one man, turned COM
pete somerset and voted for another. Men who de-
claimed loudly against the "Caba !" turned in, and sup.
ported il And the "Cabap' Themselves to,save their
Sheriff, and Prosecuting Attorney, sacrificed their
Treasurer and took up candidate not thought of be-
fore the Convention met.
We should like TO know the secret history OF that
Grand Jury room Convention There must have Deen
sumo notable Compromises made-some crookng Of
knees, and begging of votes
With the ticket, the whole packed ticket with the
two horses from the Cabal," we are well satisfied -
satisfied that the people will condemn the courss~by
which they were Rominated-satsfied that we can
bring out strong team-and satisfied. that they will
be as hard rif not little harder than thcy were
