The Candidates.

Both parties have chosen their candidates fo,
Governor of this Commonwealth. The Wings
have nominated William F. Johnston, Of Armstrong
county, (now acting Governor) as their candidate
for that Office at the ensuing election. This
result was generally anticipated by the people
throughout the State, and the fact that it was
achieved by the unanimous concurrence of the
Convention, only indicates the unanimity of the
people with regard to him. He is one of the ablest
men in the State. has had much legislative expe-
rience. and is thoroughly devoted to the interests
of Pennsylvania.
The Locofoco nominee is Morris Longstreth,
of Montgomery county, at present one of the Ca
nal Commissioners of Pennsylvania. He is one
of the most radical politicians in the State, is in
favor Of free-trade, and all the other paramount
measures of the Baltimore School His nomina-
ton was resisted for some time, by large portion
of the Convention.

The following is an extract, of letter to one Of
the editors ofthe New York Journal of Commerce,
dated, .'
NEwFoUNDLAND, June, 1S4S.
"We, Newfoundlanders, have passed most
trying winter, hundreds of families have subssted,
during the season, on an allowance ofhalf pound
of corn meal, head, per day. Had i. not been
for this we have good grounds for stating, hun
dreds must, have died of starvation. Numbers,
even at this time living in state of the deep
est distress and food, ,--save
fish. Without necessary clothing-without any
means OF procuring necessaries-and without cred
it, Last year we had poor fisheries and almost
total failure of the potato crops so that not only
few families have been destitute, but whole CON-
munities-yea every part of the Island has felt the
smart. The government, last fall, did much to
meet the exgencies of the winter but really, after
doing what, perhaps. it could, it was mere triey
considering the thousands looking to it for relief.
1t is much to be wished that this summer would
prove prosperous, both regards the fisheries and
potato crops, for should it out otherwise, we
apprehend that Newfoundland, during the subse-
quCut Wihlef, Will WitilcSS SIUOHikcE scenes, ana
will have to pass through heavier trials, than it
has ever yet experienced since it became British
Colony. Merchants are feeling the times much;
several of them became bankrupts last winter, and
many more seem to be Only staggering along and
struggling against fall, They will not, because
they cannot, issue supplies, in fact man, of them
can't get supplies to issue. Even salt, an article
without whieh the poor man, here, cannot get a.
long, is refused this summer trust, to scores of
planters or fishermen.
The governor has done good deal this sum-
mer to encourage agriculture, by granting supplies
of wheat and barley. &C., and we must hope. that
the result may be great blessing; but We are nos
without fears eu
