the Democracy of Cambria County, pledge
ourselves to unite upon this basis, believing
il 10 be essential TO the success of the Demo-
racy of the Nation in the approaching Presi-
Dental election.
Mr. NJ Coy arose aud said, he hoped the
Convention would not act on the resolution
just read. He had been elected to the Con-
vention on local issues and he was prepared
TO 60 20 further. He thought this Conven-
tion had no control over the Electoral ticket,
and he was not willing to vote in favor of the
Resolution. Let us attend to our county
ticket, and let the Electoral ticket take care
of itself
Philip S. Noon said it might be the pro-
position was good one, but he was not will
ling to endorse it just now He thought the
proposition had not been adopted but was f.
na!ly to be acted on at a meeting of the COM
mittee at Cresson. Mr. M'COlgan informed him
he was mistaken; the proposition bad already
been adopted (Mr. Noon was so busy last
week in electioneer:ng that he probably did lot
read the newspapers. The fact that r. l..
Johnston, Esq, the member of the State
Central Committee for this county voted
against the proposition for a union of the
Electoral ticket, at the meeting of the CON-
mittee, accounts for the course of Philip 5.
Noon and Robt A. M'Coy Esq, in the Con-
ventiOn-) The resolution was not adopted
Mr.. O'Friel of LOretto offered the following
resolution
ResolUed. That the candidate for Assem-
bly, be required to gi=e pledge. that if cleo
ted he shall oppose every measure ealcula-
ted for the repeal of the three mill Tax charged
on the Tonnage on the Pennsylvania road
This resolution was also rejected on motion
of Philip s. Noon Esq. His motion was to
lay it on the table, which was of course
equivalent to killing it The Convention
therefore endorsed the Pennsylvania Rail
Road Company
On motion of Philip S. Noon, Esq the
Convention then proceeded to appoint eOun-
ty committee; John III. Douglas Esq, of
Clear6eld was appointed chairman.
On motion of Philip S Noon, the Con-
vention then adjourned with three (very faint
cheers for the ticket; about 90 delegates be-
ing present
We occupied seat as reporter in the con-
ventiOn. and watched its proceedings carefully.
We therefore know that all the facts and state
ments contained in the foregoing report is
correct. To Mr. James Myers, the door
keeper, for his uniformly kind and courteous
treatment of US while the convention was in
session our thanks are due.

Resignation of Bishop O,COnnor

Our Catholic readers will learn with both
surprise and regret the Rt. Rev Bishop o.
Connor has closed his official connection with
his Diocese-that Diocese over which he had
so long and ably presided. In letter ad-
dressed to the clergy and laity of the district
he announces the fact thus: cit becomes
my duty to announce to you that my official
connection with this Diocese has ceased. II
Is now nearly three years since Providence
has been pleased 10 affiict me with a disease
which has rendered proper attention to the
duties of fpy Office impossible My own in
clinations, when first afflicted, led me to de-
sire to resign position, the duties of which I
was unable TO discharge, and thus secure for
1t more efficient occupant. But Welding to
advice which was bound TO respect. another
remedy was sought. Experience having con
frmed the opinion first formed, 1 submitted
the whole affair to the Holy See, and, after
some hesitation, tie Holy Father has finally
accepted my resignation" He closes his let
ter by asking pardon from all whom he NAV
have offended by deed or commission. and in
viting his people ''to pray with him that God
may grant them pastor according to his own
heart, who will lead them in the WAYS of pie
ty and truth, and compensate for his manv
deficiencies" The Bishop was held in high
esteem not only by his own flock, but the
public generally. and his retirement and the
active duties of his holy calling will. no doubt
be heard of with regret by the great mass of
the community.-PiHsbury Chronicle.

FOR GOVRENOR,
HENRY D. FOSTER,
OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY.
MON DAY,
OF WEST

We publish In another column this week,
full and accurate report of the proceedings
of the County Convention which convened in
this place on last Monday. We think it will
not be found entirely uninterestiDg. AS all
our readers will perceive at glance, we do
Lot place at our mast head the ticket nomina-
ted. We might under the circumstances
pursue different course. We might hoist
the ticket and, as men have done in days gone
by, while advocating it through the columns
of our paper, secretly oppose it. But We
scorn to do so. We will not assassinlike stab
any man in the dark. Unlike George n.
Smith, one of the delegates from this district
to the National Convention, we will not keep
the word of promise to the lip, and break it
to the hope" Alter calm deliberation, we
have determined to take bold and decided
course; and with whatever of Democracy and
patriotism remains in this county sustaining
US, we enter our solemn protest against the
proceedings of the Convention on last Mon
day
We place ourselves in an antagonistical po-
sition to the ticket nominated, and bid def
ance to any earthly arm that would drive us
from our position.
The Convention violated the rules and well
established usages of the party; and the will
of the honest and bona tide voters in two dis
trlcts was treated with contempt. The Penn
sylvania Rail Road was endorsed in its eff
forts to release itself from the payment of the
three mill tax on its tonnage. The Conven
ton last, but not least, refused to ratify the
plan for harmonizing the party next October
and November adopted by the State Central
committee; thus refusing to take high and
national ground in the contest.
If we desired precedent to justify our
course it would not be difficult matter 70
find one. In 1854 George N. Smith. editor
of the AHegheny Mountain Echo, refused to
place at the mast head of his paper the ticket
nominated by lhe County Convention of that
year. He not only opposed the ticket during
the campaign but ''crowed' over its defeat
after the election. And this same George
Nelson Smith is the gentleman who was
placed in nomination for Assembly on last
Monday.
We have much more to say at present but
have not room to do so. We hope all our
subscribers will grant US a patient hearing.
We have many important facts to lay before
them next week. In the meantime. we hone
they will peruse the proceedings of the Con-
ventlon with care. 1t is an honest statement
of facts, in which we have extenuated NOTHING
nor set down aught in malice.

of George N. Smith for Assembly. The other
sett was in his favor. A motion was made
by delegate that George Cupp and
-- be admitted to seats in the Conven-
ton. The motion having been put there
were loud cries of Aye and No. The outside
President decided that the motion was carried.
and Mr.. Cupp and his colleague took their
seats. This fsgrant outrage on the will of
two thirds Of the Democratic voters of
the LIST Johnstown ward, this open assault on
equity and right, produced general burst of
indignation in the Convention. and the del

ELECTION FOR ASSOCIATE JUDGE. - On
Monday an election will be held in this Ju-
dicial District for Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court. In our parish, SO far, there
seems to be but little interest manifested in
the matter. But one candidate is announced,
ADAM BEATTY, Of Lafourche, and we feel as
'ured that If elected, it will be by the small
est vote ever polled in the parish. One-half
OF our people, at least, will not vote, and the
other half will do the same thing. But for a
mere matter Of form, We question much
whether the commissioners would even omen

they will choose an upright and competent

Courier concludes an able article with the
following truisms: without slaves there

the mills Of New England. its agriculture and
mechanic arts would soon fall into their for
mel comparatively unprosperous state. Ard

what a deplorable change would soon follow
upon its present thrifty condition? Without
cotton, shoes could not be purchased, either
for the nesroes, or for a considerable portion

OF Natick and othes New England manufac-
turing towns, is directly growing out of the
oondage OF four millions Of men."
