When We saw it announced that Mr.. Eos

Col. Curtin 10 stump the State in company,
we regarded tss mere fairy which would
amount to nothing in the end Subsequent
events show that we were correct in this
opinion. Like the valiant Mr.. Pryor, who
sent the challenge Mr.. Potter, MIR. Foster
has managed to get out of the difficulty by
finding fau 1t with with and objecting to the
arrangements, and thus putting stop to
the whole affair. Mr.. Mcclure, 10 behalf of
Col. Curtin, sent list of the appointments
OF the latter gentleman to Gen Foster, and
cordially invited him to join his opponent in
the discussion of the political questions now
before the country, at these meetings. They
did not suit the Democratic candidate, as it
would have had the effect to bring him on
the stump at once, which be was aware
at this time would prove too hot place for
him. We are therefore, to have no discus
sion, for the reason that the Democratic
chicken won't fight. When put in tight

HENRY ID. FOSTER proves his devotion to
Pennsylvania by refusing to take position
on the subject of protecting her industry
and wealth. He declares with a flourish
that be is tariff man-but shrinks from as.
serting his preference for any of the can
didates before the people, who would adj
vance the interests of labor, vindicate the
principles of Freedom, or protect the great
Iron and coal resources of Pennsylvania =
Is such man worthy of support in such a
crisis ? | such man worthy the confidence

desertion of principle become merit among
the people of Pennsylvania If be is, then
have the laboring man and mechanic lost
that self regard for their own Advancement
and elevation, which has heretofore made
them potential and powerful in a political
canvass. The are willing to take the mere
assertion of man instead of the perform
ance of a solemn duty and they must trust
alone to the fckleness of political organi-
cation that has more than once deceived and
betrayed them, OF they will Indignantly
reject the invitation to vote Henry D. FOs-
ter.
Freemen of Pennsylvania the contest for
Governor is not q common struggle fo, the
nero elevation of man. The candidates
a; of the least importance. 1t is the prin-
ciple involved, and the great interests
which are depending for success on the re-
suit of that Gubernatorial election. If
Henry D. Foster is elected, the South will
claim it as declaration in favor cf the in
PRODUCTION of Savsry into all the territory
of the country. If Andrew &. Curtin is
triumphant, ii will be victory in favor of
Freedom, protection to labor, and the vim
dication Of the laws Of the land in every
State in the Union.

JUDGE HALE.

The Republican Congressional Conference
for this District, met at Lock Haven on the
11th inst, and unanimously nomin ated the
Hon. James 7. Hale for re election. This
was expected, ard is as it should be. The
people will have no reason to regret their
choice, having already tested the official ca
pacity of Mr. Hale. No constituency in the
country can claim more honest or talented
less politician. Judge Hale is no no polii"
ical intriguer, and even the enemies of Free
dom respect him for his honest and earnest
devotion to live Republican principles. AS
an illustration Of this, we will give an in
stance in point.
A citizen of this place was at Washington
last winter, and having called at the resi-
deDce of Commodore Shubrick-well known
for his bitter pro-slavery sentiments-the
conversation naturally turned to the discus
sion of the Speakership, then at the zenith Of
its interest. The Commodore said to our cit
izen, you have a fine repres entative from
your district-in fact, sir, your State and
your party may we'll be proud of him. ad
miro him because he is honest in his views
and firm in his opinions. He is a man who
esteems principle above party, and | am
proud of his personal friendship"
This district may we'll be proud of such
representative, and the people Of the district
will endorse the opinion of Com. Shubrick OF
the 9th of October. Every Republican II
the district, however, will be needed to make
sure of his reelection, as the Democratic
State ticket last year had 372 majority on q
vote small. The necessity of a full vote vii
readily be seen.--P0tter Journal.

ANDREW G. CURTIN is great beam in the
eyes of the fusion and anti fusion press at
the State capital. They both delight in
showing their tempers by assaults on his pri-
yate character, in the equiyocsl expression
that she is of doubtful reputation" These
doubts are fathers to the fears which haunt
them as they contemplate the enthusiastic
influence with which the people are rallying
to the support of the Republican candidate
for Governor, the doubtful portion of whose
character is that which constitutes his oppo-
sitien to the frauds and corruption of the
Democratic party. This is what is doubtful
in the eyes of the fusion press. He has new
er been charged as gambler, negecting his
public duties while in Harrisburg-nor did
be devote the time he owed to his sworn du.
ty to the arrangement Of private special leg
islation, out of which greater fees were col.
lec;ed than were ever derived BY any lawyer
in Pennsylvania for a professional service
The doubtful part OF any mans character ia
that which is always least known, aud as
Henry D. Foster is known at home and
abroad, these dor BITS assume the shape of
certainties wherein he was dereliot in his du-
ty TO his constituents, and doubtful in his

COLIN to the Presidency of the United States,
most If not all of them being Breckenridge
Democrats, was held at room No. !, of the
New York Hotel, on Tuesday evening last,
the llth inst, at half past o'clock. 1t is
understood that at this meeting New York
was given up as hopeless, and that it was de-
termined to transfer the last desperate efforts
and all the spare cash of the party to Penn
sylvania. The very liberal subscriptions
which sundry great merchants of this city
have made, to be paid after the completion OF
the Douglas Bell Breckinridge fusion in
New York, are as far as possible to be trans
ferred there. 1t is hoped to repeat now the
great operation of 1856 and defeat the repub
lcan candidate for Governor in that State, by
some means or OTHER. Let the Republicans oi

The Democrats appear to have abandoned
all hope of carrying New York, and Penn
| sylvania is now the object Of their attention.
They will concentrate all their energies upon
it, lavishing what money they have to spare,
to carry it, and will try to re>enact the
sceses of 1856. Pennsylvania is to be the
battle ground Of the campaign, and the great
struggle VIII take place in October, over the
election for Governor,
1t is well, therefore, that our people are
apprlsed OF the fact in season. Now that they
know 1t, they will have the greater incentive
10 work their hardest for success in the pre-,
lminary but decisive contest,
Much, if not most Of the money contribu-
ted In New York to corrupt and carry Penn
sylvania, will be spent in PhiIadslp phia.--
Fortunately for the friends of Freedom how
ever, things are not now as they were in '5S.
Then, every officer in the State House row
was Democrat, and it was consequently
easy to issue forged naturalization papsrs By
the trunk full; now, every officer but one, in
that row, is Republican, and that game is
blocked. Then, too, they had all, or nearly
all the election officers, the Republican par
ty not having been organized until after the
choice Of those officers, and it was perfectly
easy to make election returns to suit the nes
cessitiss of the party now there is reprs-
sen :ative of the Opposition party in nearly
every election precint in the city, and that
party has the control of majority Of them.
In addition to this, law of last winter gives
them full power to prevent frauds at the sleo-
ton, if they choose to exercise it, as .hey will
undoubtedly do.
In this view of the case there 10 not 90
much reason to dread the advent of these
mercenary Democratic politicians from New
York, who 60 upon the principle that " ey-
cry man has his price," particularly every
man in Pennsylvania.
On the other hand, it will be Of great ad-
vantage to the Peoples cause if it stirs up,
as it should do, the workers of the Opposition
TO watchlulness and zeal. All that we need.
now, is activity, that insures our success.
We not only can, but we must, elect Cur.
tin in October. He has gallantly and trium.
phantly borne our standard throughout the
State, and we must not see it stricken down
in his hands. We owe it to the cause to
elect him by n overwhelming majority, an1
he is no tue friend of Lincoln who refuses
both to vote and to work for Curtin.
Friends The election of Curtin will ef-
fectualy settle the November contest. Our
success in October will deprive the enemy of
all heart for the November fight. Up then,
and to work With will, and all the more
eagerly that the eneny has acknowledged
his weakness be recourse to the last resort
the corrupt use Of money.
