National Convention at Harrisburg.

Mr.. Levi Bishop, Chairman of the Michigan
Democratic State central committee has issued
a recommendatory call for a National Demo-
cratic Convention to consult generally ON the
state OF the country; to compare opinions, and
IT possible to harmonize them and the Demo-
cratic and conservative press; to enuneiate
principles and policy in accordance with the
Constitution and laws for the future guidance
of our citizens; and finally, to adopt such mea-
surcs as the wisdom and patriotism of the con.
vention might deem proper to rescue the nation
from the fearful condition into which we are
already plunged, md from the more terrible one
into which we are rapidly fastening.
For the time July l5 is recommended, and
for the place Harrisburg, and it is finally sug-
gested that each State send number of dele
gates equal in number to its senators and repre-
sentatiyes in Consre ess.

nothian Society Of Franklin and Marshall Col
lege, was celebrated in Fulton Hall, Lancaster,
on Friday evening 29th ult. Our young friend
Mr. Jonathan Cessna, was one of the perfor-
mers, and according to the Lancaster papers,
acquitted himself in very able manner. We
copy the following notice of his performance
from the Lancaster Inquirer:
The Constellation of the United States, BY JON
athan Cessna, Of Bedford, Pa, was brilliant
exposition of our glorious Constitution, which is
not the "mere ideal production of single schol-
ar or statesman, but arose from the exigencies
of the age of its adoption" ami twas the first
instance of government, deliberately formed
for the people for whom it was intended" The
speaker instanced comparison with other Gov
ernments, and showed how absurd was the idea
on which they were founded-The history of
the world presents succession Of governments
coming into existence, Hourishing for a while,
and then falling into decay; until sin the full
ness of time the principles of universal freedom
were established in the constitution of the Uni
ted States" He sketched in beautiful man
ner, the trials and troubles of the country from
the end Of the revolutionary war, until they a.
rose ''upon the wide platform Of wisdom, jus
sice and equality, in the simple majesty of ster-
Aal tyuth, the proud temple Of ihe Amexican

Mr.. Andrew Scott returned this week

wide, bleak prairie, their points of COM

for timber. The party knew that if they
undertook to remain there over light they
would perish. So Mr.. Scott, who is an OK.
perisncsd hunter, balanced himself and
took his bearings, and told the boys they
could find timber in certain direction
Strapping man who had already frozen
his feet and become helpless upon one of
the horses and abandoning the wagons,
they struck out through the storm the
night and the deep snowfor timber. After
several hours tramp they found it and
made themselves comfortable. Upon re-
turning to their wagons they found their
favorite hunting hound froze to death in
the wagon. The result of the hunt was
" turkeys, 80 wolves, 9 bufaloes, 6 deers,
and 3 beavers. They report snow two
feet and six inches deep in that region.

Papers and Periodicals For the
SnfHtarS-FrnR

Papers and Periodicals For the
SOfdiers-Free.
There is mnch need at the present time
Of a postal law permitting all periodicals
and newspapers to 60 free to the army
Such law as this would fill the camps of our
brave volunteers with interesting reading
matter and while the tedious hours of camp
life away with the news from home and
fhe literature of the day. Every thing
that Legislation can reasonably do should
be done to make our soldiers happy and
contented. Homesickness and heartsick-
ness the frequent cause of disease among
the soldiers would scarcely be known in
the camps fplenty of good reading and
the news, of the day were attainable. Un.
der the new postal law no postmaster is
allowed to deliver from his Office any pa
pers or periodicals until the postage is
paid. All through tho North newspaper
publishers and friends of soldiers send to
the army papers and reading matter, but
it 50 seldoms reaches its Destination tha!
the donors are discouraged and do not
send one hundredth part As many as they
would send did they know that their SOL
dier friends would receive them. Papers
that are sent, 60 as far as there is mail com.
munication and at the last Office, because
the postage is not paid very few of the pa.
pers 60 any farthsr. This should be rem
edied. The law should also compel post
masters at the end ofthe route and where
the letters are delivered to the army mes
sengsr, to deliver all papers, periodicals
and reading matter in such ! manner that
it will reach its destination. We do not
like to dwell upon this subject, but, much
might be said. All can readily see the
advantage arising from law of this char.
acter. Our paper is too 'small potatoes"
to attract the attention of Legislators 20 an
idea of this kind, but if some large and
influential journal would take it up and
advocate it, it would attract attention and
beneficial law grow therefrom.
