The One Day Presldcmtial Election.

The ~ Y. Tribune is obviously OF hlmor with the pas
natanecns day for the Presidential Election throughout the
Union w not surprised that meets with objections;
covert. nj least IN That quarter UB. Will not, need
not, ask. lab. Argus
Is None Of your insinuations, Messrs of the
State Paper We have not the least objection
TO the commencement and contamination of the
choice of Presidential Electors on the same day,
though VIC cannot discern any urgent necessity
for such STEP while we arc sure the cstensible
prcteNt for ii is preposterouS. Let each State re-
quirc Registration ofits Legal Voters. as Massa-
chusetts, Maine, Nc. do, and there would be no
prctencc of 'pipe-laying from one State into an
other Yet we do greatly doubt the proprety of
subecting two-thirds of the States TO the expense
OF holding Special Sessions Of their Legislatures
for the purpose of putting the choice OF rresden.
tial Electors two or three days back or forward.
The expense and trouble would be great the
benefit slender and doubtful.
And now will the Argus be good enough to
inform US whether, in Its judgment, such an act
as has passed the House would, il il became
law, be Mandamus Aci'-in other words,
whether the States would be bound to conform to
its provisions? Yes or No.

TYLER AND Texas MEETINGs.--Thc friends OF
TYLER and Texas had Il meeting last night in an
obscure Porter House, in the Third Ward, for the
purpose of clecting Delegates TO the Convention
which is 10 he held at Baltimore on the eth prox.
After having CROPPED our way through bar-room
of not very Corinthian proportions and dmy
lighted alley, We entered room of moderate SIZE,
where we found some fifty persons standing in q
circle round table, at which sat the President
of the meeting, B. f. Birdsall, Esq and Two or
three other persons. The meeting were wrang-
ling about the number of Delegates 10 the Con-
vcntion which ii was desirable 10 appoint.
After the pompous annunclaton OF the series
Of meetings OF which this was one, we had ex-
peced something exceeding the grand demon
straton in the Park previous TO the Ratification
meeting. We were, however, disappointed, it
being evident yesterday evening that the Office
holders even were absent. and that the cnihusi-
asm of The party had entirely cvaporatcd-or
rather that it never had an existence save in the
fertile imagination Of the Administration Poet
Laureate John Jones.

WooI. Mosaic CLoTH.-A new invention has
recently been introduced into London from Berlin,
and we learn, is soon to be introduced into our
American cities, in which the briiancy and
variety of colors of Berlin, wool are blended to-
gether in devices ofsurpassing elegance and rich
ness. The manufacture has all the appea rance
of painted velvet, with the texture and lasting
qualities Of woven fabric. In the process OF
manufacture the figures, with their various hues,
arc woven in a thick pile several inches long, and
the fabric is then divided into lumina and fixed
on the flexible india rubber ground work each
slice of the pile produced by this process is ex-
ouistcIy beautiful, and is admirably adapted for
tho decoration of paIatial drawing rooms. The
attempts copy paintings and to take Licensees
are comparative failures, but for ornamental de-
signs the mosaic cloth is almost unrivaIled in
beauty.-Boston Transcript.

SCREWS LOOSE IN OLD BERKs.

Wo observe in tho last number of the Berks

Clay Bugle tho proceedings of meeting held in
Lower Heidelberg township, composed of portion
of the disafIected '.dcmocracy'' of Old Borks.
Tho President of the meeting was one of the
leading spirits in the ranks of Locofccoism year
or two ago, and mia lority of those who partici-
pated lavo heretofore been identified with Locofo-
coism Col Hugh Lindsay, whose renuncia.
ton of Locofocosnl is fresh in the memory Of
our readers, delivered address in German,
which was enthusiastically applauded. The fol.
lowing expressive resolutions were unanimously
adopted.
Resolved. That we hail with much satisfaction
the evidence in all parts of the country and in this
county that the people awakening to a sense
of the Importance of the coming crisis, and are
preparing to give an UNITED SUPPORT TO CLAY,
FREL1NGHUYsEN AND MARKLE.
Resolved, That the nomination of Clay and
FREL1NGHUYsEN meets cordial appreciation.
and believing do that they will sustain sound
democratic principles will give them our hear
Ity support.
Resolved, That we go heart and hand for tho
soldier and farmer of Westmoroland, Gen. Jo-
sEPH MARKLE, our candidate for Governor, and
that we view with contempt the assertions Of our
opponents that ho is believing
that farmer is just fit for governor as Par
son.
Resolved, That we arc in favor of a TARIFF
and the party which supports a tariff-believng
that it s right our WoRKNEN AND I.ABoRERs SHOULD
BE PROTECTED against the cheap labor Of Europe.
Resolved, That the nomination Of the Rev.
Henry A. Muhlenburg, having been obtained
through his money, contrary to the wishes of the
people, no true democrat can sustain him.
Resolved, That whereas Henry A. Mullen.
burg nominated through the mid of Governor
Porter and IS now IN the hands of the tools and
agents of Gov. Porter's corrupt administration
over again-a thing we NEVER CAN CONSENT TO.
