Thursday, ....... August 25, 1859.


Senator Biglcr, of Pennsylvania, has
written letter to the 'Tammany Society
of New York. in which he advocates, as a
proper position for the Democratic party
the doctrine that the people Of the Terrific
rics must not lcgislate in regard to slavery
while they continue in their territorial con-
dition. The Washington Constitution
pronounces the letter able and patriotic.

Peonie,s sfa1e ConYentIorl.

The Convention of the Peoples Party which
assembled in Harrisburg On Wednesday last,
placed in nomination Hon. THOMAS E. Cocu-
RAN, Of York County, for Auditor General,
and Gen. WM. Fl. KEIM, Of Berks County,
for Surveyor General. Mr.. Cochran was nom
mated on the 9ib ballot, Hon. Francis Jordan
being the next highest candidate, on several of
tbs latter ballots. There is no doubt but that
Mr. Jordan would have been nominated, had
be permitted tie use Of his name at an earlier
dqy-he only having finally consented, after
many earnest solicitations from his friends in
various parts Of iLe State. some six weeks be-
fore the Convention met, and after the most of
the leading men in our ranks had committed
themselves in favor of others AS i. ia, we
think he did remarkably well, in coming out
second best So far Us Mr.. Jordan is COR
cerned, we think il is for his interest that the
choice has resulted as il has, as it places him
in the line of precedence for the Governors
nomination next fall, aud his friends al over
the State will MAKE vigorous effort TO secure
him that position. He ranks second to no man
in TIE State for honesty, integrity and talents,
and wonld make Chief Magistrate of whom
tue State might we'll be proud. Here's tor
Jordan for Governor in 1860.
Mr.. Cochran, the candidate for Auditor Gen.
eral, is an excellent man, aud will make an Of
fcer of the first class. He was tue candidate
for Canal Commissioner ia 1856, and legally
elected, but cheated ont of the ofige by the
frauds in Philadelphia, as proved 10 the case of
Mann VS.. Cassiday, when the latter was ousted
from the District Attorueyship, ana Mann de-
clared legally elected. Next to Jordan we
preferred Cochran.
Gen. Keim, our candidate for Surveyor Gen
eral, was elected, last fall, at he special cleo
ton in Berks County, to Congress, by some
five or six hundred, over The Buchanan candi-
date. He is one of the most popular men 10
the State.
No one doubts tue success of this ticket BY
o majority of at least $4,000.

MILITARY PARADE.

The military parade on Monday last, at
Bloody Run, came off iuely. There were four
companies on the ground, the Bedford Rifemen,
Cumberland Valley Blues, Bloody Run Inds-
pendent Blues, and Hopewell Rihemen. The
whole body, offieers and men, 6ne
locking set Of men as could be found anywhere,
ard some Of them were quite proficient in lnil-
itary mauouvres. La the afternoon, they were
marched TO the hill back of town, and we're kept
there for several hours. OF their marches and
countermarches, forming of hollow squares, rifle
and musket drills, &c, we are unable to speak,
as the Major mounted guard about 100 feet on
each side of the battalion, which forced specta-
tors, including printers, reporters, and many
other poor devils, on each side Of the bill, where
they could only see the tcps of the SO Id
i-e-r-'s heads. That Major has retired on bis
laurels, and could never again be elected, when
young America, that vas on the ground, comes
20 form volunteer companies.
A great many persons were in town, the ho-
tells we're all crowded, coed order protsy sener-
ally observed, and things passed off pleasantly,
as things generally do, in Bloody Run, which
is SO celebrated for its hospitable citizens.
Capt A. J. SAMSON, was elected Brigade
Inspector. We have not been able to ascertain
who we're elected to the other offices, but We be-
lievO Lemucl Evans was elected Brigadiar
General: Alexander Compiler, Colonel Sam'l

lst Lieut.. Thos. Lyons, was elected Captain
of the Dedford RiAemen, in place of Capt

WATERsTREET, Pa, May 30, 1859.
Mr. 0vER,--Shakspear once wrote, s'there
is tide ia the affairs of men, which, if taken
at the food, leads on to fortune"
ln the latter part of last winten, few Of
the young men Of this neighborhood concluded
that this sstde" ia their 'saffairs" was about to
flow, resolved 10 be led on by it to Pixies Peak.
Wien the time arrived for their departure, all
abandoned the adventure, except Mr.. Wm. III.
III. Ralston, eldest son OF Robert Ralston,
Esq, OF this viilose. About the middle Of
March, he bade his friends and acquaintancos
adieu for time, and, with light heart, and
bright prospect of being amply rewarded for
all his tolls, he started for the land of gold. =
He proceeded on until he reached Alchisou,
where he joined company bound for the gold
en- Peak, and, after supplying themselves with
the necessary Implements, provisions, &C.. they
commenced their journey over the plains.-
" ben thoy arrived at Fort Kcarney, Mr.. Ral-
ston wrote to bis friends here, that their pros,
poets we're sill bright, but, after travelling
about four days more, they met about fifteen
hundred men on their way back to the settled
countries, in a lamentabIe state Of destltution.
Young Ralston and his comrades being assured
BY them that '.all is not gold that glitters, re-
solved TO 60 no further; aud, u letter 10 his
father, after bis return 10 Fort Kearney, be
says: "Many who had spent much Of their time
10 the gold regions of California, bad prospect
ed The whole country. and fully satisfied them
selves that there is no geld at Pixies Peak
not even the usual sigps--aud that il is hum
bugging scheme, set aaoat By number of laad
spectators along the Missouri river, 10 direct
the tide Of emigration thitber, and to deceive
the uDwary and credulous, and had left, cha
grined that they bad been made tbs dope OF
speculate infatuations." And now, Wm.
Ralston is desirous that all who may be affect
ed with The gold mania may be made aeqaaIht
ed With the facts, aud remain in better cQap
try, and give no eredence TO any enticing re-
ports they may see in the newspapers, aud go
there only to meet With disappoiutmen's.

formerly went lato action wearing white cI2aks,
which marked them out conspicnously among

SUCCESSFUL SUIT FOR FREEDOM BY 4
WHITE GIRL.-A most interesting suit wis
completed on Saturday in the Fifth Dstriss
Court, Judge Eggleston presiding. Tt was ths
case Of suit for freedom from slavery, the
plaintiff being white girl, sixteen or seventeen
years of age, with a complexion bordering %
the brunette, named Alexina Morrison, and tic
defendant slave dealer of Jefferson Cit,
named james White. The girl, about sea
and half ago, ran away from Whites slave
yard, where she had been several months, an
was protected By some citizens Of Carocion
who she informed that she had been kidnapped
from Arkansas, apd sold into slavery, thoupt
she was born free aud of white parents. Al
appeal to the jefferson Parish Court was ma i
bat the jury Did hot agree on verdict, and thi
venue was changed to New Orleans. The tria
in the Fifth District Court occupied three DAYS
chiefly employed 10 the efforts and argument
Of counsel on both sides in regard to the ad
mission and rejection of evidence. For tn
plaintiff the chief testimony was that of seieu
tifc gentlemen, that there was an absence
about her Of evidence of African descent. A.
for the defendant, the principal evidence wa
parrowed down to the single bill Of sale, whieI
be produced from person in Arkansas, Wit
was not present. The Judges charge to tn,
jury was excepted to by Defendants counsel
from beginning to end. The jury deliberate,
but few minutes, and brought in a verdict fo
tue plaintiff. ~ 0. Bulletin.
The slavery influence is certainly gettin,
very bold when ii will thus daringry seize
perfectly white girl, and attempt to consig,
her to slavery But ii is a great institution
SO long live the twin sisters, slavery and dc
mooraey.

There was great gathering Of lccompton

two weeks ago. They had been summoned
there as Uuited States Jurors. BgIer was also

to admit that they we're Of the craft. Brother

informed BY several gantlsmen, that Hon. Wnl.
5igler has sent into this county, packa@es ef

number Of these envelopes baye been used,
thus cheating the Post Office Department out
Of Toe amount of postage il should 10 justice
receive FOR conveying their eonieuts over the
post roads. This is but small specimen of;he
economy practiced by the leaders Of the Buch-
anan faction. To make up for such losses TO
the Department, it is fair to suppose that an-
other effort will be made to tax the people =
the outsiders--with 1--WE cent postage. II is
also fair to suppose that Bigler has extended
bis frankins operation to every county in tie
State--making the sum total saved 10 the faith
full, quite an object though not any more hon
est than manufacturing bogus three cent pieces.
