true, we did not. But in opposition to the
more ultra of the Republican party, we placed
in nomination for Governor, a man highly
acceptable to the larger portion of the D. mo-
cratic party of the State-and that the whole
ticket should be satisfactory to the entire
party is best-and, as we think, conclusively
shown in the fact that the entire Democratic
ticket, subsequently nominated by the discon-
tents OF the party, declined at once and de
clared in favor Of the regular nominees of the
regular Convention.
In our own county full regard was paid
to the Union feeling of the true men OF both
political parties, and with few exceptions

scented is in the highest degree satisfactory

THE ADMINISTRATION AND SLAVERY


Caleb b. Smith, Secretary of the Int
rior, in his speech, few days since, at
Providence, r. L., stated the position of
the administration in relation to slavery
and the war in the following clear and I'M
mistakable terms:

well. 1t has been my fortune to be Sc
lected as. one Of his constitutional advisers.

T'he Appearance OF Harper's Ferry.
The reporter of the Baltimore American
gives the following interesting account Of
the condition of Harper's Ferry:
The attention of the visitor is, of course,
first attracted to the ruins of the noble
bridge, which lately spanned the river, the
destruction of which has been complete,
with the important exception of the piers,
These rear their heads firmly above the
waters, apparently uniDjured, beyond the
upper layer of granite, and which appear to
have crumbled beneath the intense heat OF
the flames. The iron, or Winchester span, +"
Of the structure with the town, has also
been left standing. The possession of the
piers will render the reconstruction of the
bridge easy of accomplishment, though il is
doubtful whether the new structure will
equal in beauty or grandeur that which was
given up to the flames. The work of re-
building will be commenced on Monday, and
will be vigorously urged to speedy COM
pletion.
The piers are supposed, by residents of the
town, to have been purposely spared as there
is not the slightest indication of their having
been mined, or their destruction other wise
attempted. Upon the remaining iron span
of the bridge is standing a large six-wheel
engine, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company, mo. l65," which the Kentuckiaus
attempted to run into the river, but were
prevented from doing so by Colonel Steuart,
of Baltimore, it is said.
The Railroad Company has sustained a
further serious loss, in the destruction, also,
by fire and gunpowder of the graceful iron
tresseling, over which the track was laid,
from the bridge to the end of the Govern
ment works-a distance of about half mile.
About three hundred feet of this work, ex-
tending from the bridge to the water station,
near which Mayor Beckham was snot and
killed by one of John Browns party, was
left untouched, through fear of injuring the
Wager House and other private property
near it. The telegraph Office and the rail-
road office were also spared through similar
motives

The Anniversary of the Battle of Bunker

The Boston naners of Mondav

The Boston papers of Monday observe:
The eighty. sixth anniversary of the battle
of Bunker Hill is observed to day with
more than usual manifestations of patriot
ism. AT the monument there was civic
and military gathering. The stars and
stripes were raised upon flagstaff about
forty feet above the shaft, making the
hight two hundred and sixty feet from the
ground. Governor Andrew and others made
eloquent speeches, appropriate to the occa-
sion. Salutes fred bells rung, &c.
Colonel Clark's fine regiment, one thou.
SAND strong, Major Cobbs new light artil-
lery, and Major Stevensons battalion of
infantry (Zouave uniform) were among the
military features to-day in the observance
Of the Bunker Hill anniversary.
The military marched around the monu-
ment in the presence of an immense assem-
blage of citizens.
Colonel Clark's Regiment, which came up
from Fort Warren, then proceeded to the
barracks at North Cambridge, recently va
Gated by the First Regiment. 1t is under
stood that this regiment has been accepted
for the war, and will shortly leave.
In the afternoon, Cobh's battery and
Stevenson's battalion were reviewed on
Boston Common, the crowd of spectators
being fully up to any Fourth of July
demonstration.
Major Cobb's battery consists of six pieces
of rihed cannon, with forges, magazines,
baggage wagons, and ambulance. The ex.
cellent drill and rapid firing exhibited sur
prised veterans, and called forth enthusiastic
plaudits from the crowd.

On the approach of the rebels TO Piedmont
the operator closed the telegraph Office aud
fled, and we have no means Of ascertainine
what damaee Is being done. Commuuica-
tion by rail between Cumberland and this
place is now cut of.
ALEXANDRIA, June 19.-Report Of occu-
patton OF Fairfax Courthouse is premature.
Secession accounts of the Vienna affair say
only thirty four men charged guns, beside
two companies South Carolina troops.
WASHINGTON, June l9-The Star saws it
is believed that the Secession lines extended
from near Occoquan to Oenterville. They
are entrencbing the neighborhood of Fair
fax Station with heavy guns, only fourteeu 4
miles from Alexandria. All information
tends TO the belief that the rebels are daily
pushing forward from Manassas to points
near Federal lines.
Parties have succeeded in gettinga requi-
sition for four additional regiments from
Indiana for three years. This will make
twenty-five Indiana regiments, which will
entitle them TO Major General, who will
probably be General Morris. Four addi-
tional regiments are authorized from Wis
constr, and four from Iowa; one of the lat
ter will be cavalry.
The Douglas Monument Committee met
to-day. No final conclusion, on account of
various plans. Will publish an address to
the citizens of the United States.

NEW ORLEANS DEFENsEs- Working of The
BLoekdde.-1he New Orleans Delta, Of the
18th inst, says that the Common Council
has appropriated 5000, 900 for the defense of
tie city, and $4,000 for the support of the
families of volunteers. The ships David and
Land, from Bordeaux, have been ordered off
the bar and sailed for Philadelphia. The
ships Atricdna and Parsons went to sea on
the 18th inst., and the National on the llth.
The only ships inside the bar were the A.
honlbra, the Vigilant, and the Aksn. The
yacht Gipsy, under British colors, was taken
at Pass al Outre on the l2Lh inst, by the
Brooklyn. EN-
A special dispatch from Richmond to the
Delta, says that Colonels Wardrap and
Duryee, and one hundred and fifty Federal
troops, were killed at Great Bethel; that six
hundred of the Confederate troops partici-
pated in the fight, and that but one was
killed and seven wounded.
The Charleston Mercury gives the Confed-
crate loss at Great Bethel as seventeen killed
The Savannah Republican, of the 18th
inst, says that large number of Federal
troops landed on the 1lth inst, at Hilton
Head. Their object was not known. Great
excitement existed there.

Reports disagree as to the cause of the dis.
emperature of General Price, the leader of
lhe Secession forces at BoOnville. One dis
batch states:
"General Price is mortslly wounded"
Another says;
General Price was taken with violent
'aiarIhes at the beginning of the battle and
Fas taken on the steamer and carried to his
home in Charlton"
The mistake, if it were not upon a solemn
Subject, would be funny one. What sOas

More Of Secretary FIsyd's Performances,
Nothing is more noticeable in the present
troubles than the large quantity of artillery
guns, Of every size and description, in the
hands Of the Confederates. Wherever they
are wanted they are to be found, to all ap-
pearance, at or near the place where they
are required. That the late Secretary oi
War, the infamous Floyd, exerted himself to
fill the South full of these articles, is beyond
question; and the following, in the New York
Times, shows that he was as industrious in
disarming the Union as he was in arming
the Confederacy;
"0n Governors Island there were twenty
large guns, some of which were of extraor-
binary size and weight, which the Secre-
tary, being 1t is supposed, rather "hard up"
sold to a prominent New Jersey machine
shop, as old iron, for the moderate sum of
$40 per tun. So well made were the guns
that it was found physical impossibility to
break them in the ordinary manner, aud it
was only by the use of the lathe that they
were destroyed. Several Of them weighed
seven thousand pounds each. Six Of them
remain unbroken, and the Department has
ordered an examination of them, so that they
may again be taken into the service OF the
country"

TIE CONTRACTING OF THE GREAT SERPENT
The New York Times says:

TIE CONTRACTING OF THE GREAT SERPENT,
The New York Times says:
II was an ominoas expression Of General
Scott, I'VE must draw the mighty boa con-
strictor around the traitors" What he thus
said, be meant and he is carrying his ia.
tention out, slowly, but surely. The folds
Of the great serpent are contracting about
The rebel forces. II has driven them from
'Harper's Ferry, and Is winding itself around
Manassas junction, where signs Of retreat
are already visible, from the tactics Of the
great Federal leader. The United States
forces are moving with steady progress In
the direction Of Richmond and the South.
Their movements are not those Of haste, but
Of power-moVements that are and will be
forward always, and such as rebellion will
be poweilCss 10 resist, Oar soldiers are fast
becoming veterans in drill and efficiency,
while the spirit which animates them Is of
the most ebiFalrous and courageous nature.
The idea OF their inyincibility will make
them SO in fact. Behind them is, and until
the war shall cease, will be, an army of re-
serve which will more than supply the place
Of those who may fall in battle, OF be disa-
bled by injuries or sickness. A force of one
hundred and nifty thousand men will be in
the field, with heavier and better armaments
than the enemy, and with the spirit that
inspires them, they will march steadily on
ward TO the Gulf, In spite Of the bOasted
chivalry Of the traitors.

ARMY CoNTRAOToRs INDIoTED.-The Phila-

We feel that the patriotic people of the

that justice has achieved one triump ph in the
matter of 'Jobbers," charged with specializing
upon the funds so freely devoted to crush
out the rebellion, defrauding the State and
plundering the soldiers.
On Friday last the Grand Jury Of the
Quarter Sessions of Allegheny County pre-
sented TO the Court that, from their own

and Charles NJ. Neal, did conspire, in April
last, in Pittsburg, TO cheat and defraud the
Commonwealth of PennsylvaHiA out Of
$4,000 by divers subtle and fraudulent
means and devices f
Upon this the Court ordered an indictment
TO be drawn against all the parties named,
