The WAY it Works.

Many of those who believed that the
regular Democratic Convention erred in
refusing an endorsement of Gov. PACKER s
State policy, and favored the bogus gath
cring on "Wednesday last, at Harrisburg,
have been surprised and disgusted 10y the
open efforts Of uICGNAN, LAUMAN, FoRNEY,
KNOX & Co, at that meeting, in favour Of
SEWARD Aboltionism. All around us and
from all quarters, we already hear Of such
publicly disclaimng the action Of these
.schcmers, and traitors and ayowing their
Intention to have no further connection
with them. The following note in the
Harrisburgh Patriot, from K. ii KERR, of
Pittsburgh, who was a member of the
FoRNEY Convention, is an indication of
the feelings which must pervade all hon
est Democratic minds, in relation to its
doings and actors;
To the editors ofHc Patriot anil Union:
GENTLEMEN--The published proceedings
in your paper do me injustice. The tenn
porary Chairman consider honest enough
to select officers, but in no instance, or in
no way, have ! ever acted or sanctioned
opposition to the regular nominated can
dicates. ! regard it the duty of all Dem
ocrats to support the nominees of the
March Convention.
was willing that Gov. Packers admin
istration should be fully endorsed. But
farther than that could not act with ii
destructive spirits who met to spit out
their venom on the President. ...
The address and resolutions are of such
a nature that could not sanction. Had
the President-Mr. McKinney-notrnledme
out of order, at the bidding of Mr.. Forney
! would have shown that their aim was
tho destruction of the party. Men who
are drifting into the vortex of our ene-
mics cannot teach me lessons. There was
nothing left for me to do but vote against
their proceedings and Withdraw my name
from their Convention.
Democrats who have not been disappoin-
ted, will act with their usual integrity by
sustaining the ticket Of the regular Con,

Speaker of the Senate.

The election of Hon. JACOB TuRNEY. of
Westmoreland, Speaker Of the State, du-
ring the recess, is mark of just respect
and confidence from the Democrats of
that body to worthy man, an aUle, efli-
cient and honest legislator, and Demo-
Crat who does not permit difference of
opinion in local and mere temporary is
sues to estrange him from the organization
of tho party. The lIarrisLurgh Patriot,
noticing his election, well AMI truly SAYS :
/" 1t is worthy of remark that Mr.. Turncy
is a most loyal and incorruptible Demo-
craft At the last session, when every
Dem5rntic Senator was i'm favor of sustain.
ing the Kansas policy of the President,
Mr. TCRNEY differed, and expressed that
ditierence with boldness that marked
his candor and sincerity. But for this
reason. he did not feel called upon to de-
scrt the Democratic organization, and no
Democrat ever lifted up his hand to drive
him out His ease isa noble + futation of
the wholesale and unrelenting proscrip,
ton winch has been falsely charged upon
the Democratic party by those who have
deserted it, Mr. Tuney remained in the
party, q firm and loyal Democrat; and he
has now been elevated by that party TO
the position he is 50 well fitted to grace

Hutchinson.
This neat volume has been received,
and by a cursory glance over its pages, we
have derived much pleasure The only
inconsistent thing about it, is the title,
which might mislead many if they did
not go beyond the page which contained
it, to regard it as another dose of the
light literature with which the public is
being drugged, as it were, at the present
day. A closer examination discovers a
series of moral and practical essays upon
various subjects, written in good style and
containing much valuable instruction all
OF which is impaired in most agreeable
and interesting manner. The price is
81 90 in cloth; full gil. $3.50.

THE GOLD DIGGINGs The editor of the

March 8, which contains more hattering
accounts in relation to mining than infor-
nation previously received. lie has pros
pected South from the mouth of Cherry
Creek about 30 miles, and north of same
about GO miles. He found gold, he says,
in various places, but in all, except in the
place he now is, it was the scale or float
gold. In the region Of Boulder City, where
they now are, they have found what is
called round or shot gold, which is much
more valuable, lie adds: ave have found
this gold in nearly every place we have
prospected from the mouth of the canon,
for the distance Of 25 miles in a north
westerly direction, and l know, by actual
experiment, that man can make rock
