Wide Awake Movements.

EF The Wide Awake Meeting an
nounced for Hazleton, has been post
poned until the cath inst, at the spe-
cial request Of the citizens of that place.
On Saturday night the Club had fine
parade in town. turning out, notwith-
standing the night was inclement, eigh-
ty men. They presented couple o!
new features for 4" Invincible " imita
ton.
On Monday night they went to Bran
don, numbering forty torches, and, as
usual, had glorious time. Our Re-
publican friends of Jefferson provided a
most ample and excellent supper, and
turned out in large number to witness
the parade. Speeches were made by
JED LAKE and Judge TABOR, which re-
ceiyed not only careful attention. but
hearty applause. We have received no
heartier, no more cordial reception, than
was given US by the Republican men
and women Of Jefferson, and while we
think the demonstration there has done
their cause good, we are certain that
their generous enthusiasm has encour.

LF The greatest demonstration eve

~ The greatest demonstration ever
seen in the West, was that which took
place at Chicago on the reception OF
Senator Seward. The Press and Tri-
hume says that at the least calculation
$4,000 strangers were in the city to wit
ness and take part in the reception.
10000 Wide Awakes took part in the
torch light procession. Mr.. Seward S
speech was one of the ablest he has ever
made on the stump, and deserves to rank
with the best he has ever delivered.
The demonstration far exceeded, in mum
bers and character. that in honor of
Douglas, which took place day or two
subsequently.

Flag Presentation.

ET The +" Invincibles" were presen.
ted by their lady friends, on Monday
night, with silk flag, and a very hand
some one, too-for Independence ladies
do nothing by halves. We understand
that the gentleman who received it on
the part Of the Company had the ex
treme good taste to make sarcastic allu-
sions to the Wide Awake flag, in hi.
speech Ia the "sweet. loving ladies'. >
We should think that the great Difficult
ty experienced by Mr.. MOORE and his
friends in initiating the Wide Awakes
would have been sufficient to have stop
ped him from such ill-nalured illusions
He should have remembered that the
Wide Awake flag was also ladies' flag
and If, as we understand he stated was
the case, he " delights to fight under a
lady's flag in preference to any other
flag" he should be careful not to make
invidious comparisons. II the Irwin.
'vincibles" are satisfied we are certain the
Wide Awakes should be and are.

A Personal Matter.

Ev 1t seems. from a communication

is not the Rev DAVID CHAMpLIS, as Mr.
LEAvIrr in his communication insinua-

believe. truthful citizen of Jefferson
Township that Mr.. LEAvIrr, in his
speech at Brush College, read extracts
from the Guardian which he pronoun-
ced lies, and stated that we knew them to
be lies when we published them. He
also took occasion to advise his hearers,
when they heard Republican state what
we had stated, TO tell him that he lies,
and if he persisted in the assertion, to
knock him down. Our experience with
men has led us to know that each nature
has its own acteristics-possesse
certain peculiarities which makes it stand
out distinct and northumberland it man

these developments must be taken as a
proper manifestation of that nature con.
dition. These developments are some
times calculated to try our patience, out
rage our sensiblities. and provoke our
anger. But when we reflect upon them

phenomena Of a certain peculiar organi
zstion. we are enabled to excuse them.
We think men adopt this view of the
matter more generally than they are

the Country and the Great OpPOsI-

The Republican Cony ention will meet at
Chicago on the 10th inst, for the purpose
of nominating candidates for the Office of
President and Vice President 1t is expect
ed that these candidates viii be supported,
not only by those who call themselves Re-
publicans, but by all who are opposed to
the present corrupt and imbecile admins
tration, and who desire the government to
be restored TO the principles of its founders.
In order to make the proper selection, it
will require, on the part of said Convention,
discretion, tact, Judgment, and, probablyla
sacrifice of personal preferences. They
should select, not only the best, but the
most available candidaie--One who will
give confidence 10 the entire. Union, and
who will be supported South of Mason aud
Dixon's line as well as North. 90
The question should not lie alone, is he il
Republican, but is he honest, is he capable,
is he worthy. Has he shown himself 10 he
above party; is he national man; one who,
if elected will not only be the President of
particular party or section, but will re-
spect the rights OF every locality. 1t should
not only be their care to select man who
will fully represent the principles Of the
Republican party tor i'll reality it is not II
sectional party but they should also look
to availability, and select a standard bearer
who will be able to concentrate the entire
Opposition IN his favor. Give US such a
man, and we will guarantee a liberal sap
from ha Of h =.
Republic.
They should select a candidate, who,
while he is possessed of the principles of the
Republican party, should be sound in re-
gard to the Tariff question, the Homestead
Bill, and the Pacific Railroad, all of which
are of Just as much Importance to the PEG
pie of the United States, as the slavery
question. They should, therefore, endeavor
20 throw aside their political preferences for
the sake of the country, and the success of
their candidate, and nominate as the stand
ard bearer of the Opposition party, man
who can mite all the different elements
which compose it, and that man is EDWARD
BATES of Missouri. He alone, above all
others, is the NTH for the times. His prin-
ciples are coeval with the Republican or
eanization, although of more conservative
kind He has not been in public life for
number of years he has not sought any
Office, and therefore the more deserving, the
more worthy aud it elected President he
will be the President not of the Republican
or any other party, but OF the entire Repnb-
lie; aud, at the same time, VIII use all non
orable means to carry cut the principles OF
the Republican party. He has gwen US
ample evidence of his sincerity and devotion
to these principles Ft'
