jured by personal chickering's growing aut
of the scheme to make the delegates 10
Chicago unit, when the people for whom
those delegates propose to speak are d.
Utded in sentiment on the subject OF the
Presidency. The great mass of the Re,
puLlicans of Pennsylvania would prefer
Chase, or Seward or Read, to Cameron,
for their candidate, and rbis fact will be
as we'll known Mt Chicago under the pres
ent delegation, as it would have been if
the choice of delegates had been freely
left to the people: SO that while Mr.. Cam
eron's chances for nomination are not
improved, the heated zeal of his partisans
have caused unpleasant reflections that
will of necessity do some harm. The
Republicans OF this Stae unite with their
brethren in other States in saying. it is
thousand times better 20 fail while sup
porting great principles, than to elect a
candidate ,ctHtom principles, who, when

are honest, they seek no Office, and de-
clare they will not be made the dupes of

publicans of this State also say. it is alb
surd to claim for any man power to sue.

Tourists from the cities have commenced
their excursions Co Mt Mansfield much car
lior this season than ever before. The now
"Summit House Is completed aud is a beau
Gful structure. Hon Geo =. Marsh says it
is the best huuse on any mountain of this
high elevation in the world. When we con-
slider the vast amount of labor required in the
transportation of SD much lumber and other
materials TO this prodigious height, it seems
like "A work Of magic. The building erected
in 1858 was found quite too small to accom-
modatc the greatly increased amount of travel
to the mountain, and its proprietor, w. II.
II. Bingham, Esq. Of Stowe, felt encouraged
to carry forward the enterprise of erecting q
building that would meet this demand, and
be source of pride and honor to the State
The new building fifty feet by thirty. There
are two largo saloons and several bedroom.
ON the first floor. and ten large bedrooms or
the second floor The building is tastcfully
finished, and neatly painted without and with
in. Tho cost of the buildings, with the fur.
nituro, has been about $1,000. The old build.
ing, which stands in the rear of the new one
has been converted into largo dining hall
and kitchen. This enterprise is one by which
every interest In the state cannot fail of be-
ing greatly promoted, I'd. the advent, in CON
sequence of it, of people of wealth aud intel
ligcncc from all quarters must be very grca
for years Co come.

Rarely, if ever, was such a condemnation ever
passed by the House upon an executive oni-
Ger The facts were fully reported in the last
Congress, by Mr.. Sherman, chairman Of an
investigating committee. At this session the

The programme Of the Democracy is to pile
up the debts Of the government instead Of
paying them--to borrow and pay interest, ra-
Their than give ms a decent Tariff for revenue.
The national debt is now sixty millions Of
