The Fenian Raid.

The long threatened invasion of Cana
da by the Fenians has become an accom-
plished fact. The sacred soil of the
Kanucks is to-day desecrated by the
presence upon it of an armed host of those
who wear the green. The liberation of
'downtrodden and oppressed Ireland
has indeed ard in truth been begun
after a fashion. The grand advance
commenced Oh Thursday last, since which
time continual stream of conflicting ru-
mors has poured upon us from 'the front"
as to what is being done and what is
! going to be done. The Fenians effected
landing on the Canadian shore opposite
Buffalo. This done, they at once marched
upon Fort Erie and quickly captured it.
| When it is remembered that this strong
hold is heap Of abandoned ruins, it not
| having for years been maintained as a
fortifcation, the grim valor and determi-
naticn of this feat will be keenly appreci-
ated. Later reports state that Erie was
evacuated the next day, the Fenians fall
ing back on Buffalo, where they were all
gobb!ed up by Federal boats guarding tn e
river and placed under arrest, Another
column of the raiders went on to Ridgway,
with the ayowed purpose of tapping the
Welland Canal Here they encountered
body of Britishers, and fight ensued,
several being killed and wounded on eli
ther side. More skirmishing has from
time to time ensued, but nothing definite
has been accomplished. The Fenians are
sending forward reinforcements by the
thousand, while the Canadians are also
not idle. Our Government has taken
steps to patrol the frontier, TO prevent
violation of the neutrality laws. Why 2
The Canadian Government were not swift
to put down their foot on the st. Adams
raiders. Let the poisoned chalice be
commended to their own lips, and see how
they Ike it.
Strictly speaking, the invasion is a
farce. The Fenians have plenty of men,
but no cannon nor guns. Unless they
intend to do their fighting with the his
toric "sprig of shilleIagh," they may be
said to be unarmed. They are little more
than mob. We apprehend that in few
days the doughty warriors, those not cap
tured and hung oy tie -ed-coats, will
come fOcking back home from the border,
with no more honor and renown attaching
n their deeds than clustered around the
jampo Bello affair of O'Mahonoy 1t is
worthy of remark that the raid is under
taken in the interest of the Sweeny
faction of the Fenians. Stephens and his
.adherents denounce it as uutimely and
snicidal-

By the President
----, Secretary Of State.

THE people of West Virginia, nearly
all Southern BORN, by tremendous ma
jority, indeed well nigh upon acclamation,
have decided to disfranchise the rebels
and rebel sympathizers, and this, notwith-
standing the CopperEeads loudly declared
that the radicals" who originated and
advocated the DISTINGUISHING amendment,
were all for negro suffrage. Let the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania take leaf from the
experience of these border Virginians
The soil in parts of East Tennessee
swarms with lucusts, and in the woods the
swine are busy roofing up the ground in
search of them.

DIsFRANCHIsINa DEsERTERs.-The
Supreme Court has adjourned without
announcing its decision on the cOnstitu-
tionality of the act of Assembly, carrying
out the act of Congress, disfranchising
deserters but as Governor Curtin causes
it to be announced that he intends to sign
the bill, it is fair inference that the
Court will declare in favor of the consti-
tutionality of this important legislation,
Later.-The Governor on Monday
signed the bill, and it is therefore law.
Immediate preparation of the records and
certificates required by the act will be
made.

and those that his subordinates provided
for the Union soldiers imprisoned at An

IMPORTANT Probably
the first crimin al prosecution and couvic-
zion in this country of person employ
ed by a railroad company for negligence
resulting in disaster took place in Newark,
New Jersey. last week. The accused was
Edward O'Brien, formerly switch ten
der on the New Jersey railroad, at turn.
out below the Chestnut street depot in
that city. On the morning of the 10th
of November last, O'Brien neglected to
replace a switch leading to the turnout !;
and the through Washington train arrived
while the switch was out of position, and
ran across a turn-table into field and was
wrecked. Two lives were lost-those of
Mr.. Henry Gordon, of New Haven, and a
news boy-and several persons were in
jured. The jury has convicted O'Brien
Of manslaughter, with recommendation to
mercy.

Our Candidates.

The candidates nominated by our
County Convention on Monday week, are
all men of sterling worth and integrity,
and, taken collectively, form ticket of
more than usual strength. Just before
the nominations, the Johnstown Tribune
said that it was not likely that any part
of the ticket for county officers would be
elected, but the evening of the second
Tuesday of October may tell different
tale.
Daniel J. Morrell, of Johnstown, is the
declared choice Of Cambria county for
Congress. How he came to be so declared,
we will not here nor now discuss. Mr..
NJ is manager of the Cambria Iron Works,
IN which capacity he has shown great
business aptitude. Though entirely right
on the great political and economical
questions of the day, including the Tariff
question, he cannot be said to be politi-
clan, for he has never, we think, held a
public Office above the grade OF Town
COuHCIliAdn- liz - dulIC PHpuloA III INC
south of the county, where he would run
a large vote. He was born in the State
of Maine.
For Assembly, John j. Glass, of Ale
gheny township, is nominated. w Glass
is a farmer by profession, an NJ N,
excellent man. The nomination was
freely accorded him as mark of recogni-
tion of his unfaltering devotion to the
great principles of our party, as we'll as
an acknowledgment of his worth and
fitness.
For Associate Judges, John Williams,
of EbeIsburg, and Charles B. Ellis, of
Johnstown, are named: Mr. Williams is
one of our oldest and best citizens, and
Mr. Ellis sustains like relation toward
Johnstuwn. Both are eminently qualified
TO wear the judicial ermine with honor
and dignity.
For Register and Recorder, William A.
MDermit, of Clear6eld township, is nom
mated. Mr.. MD. served throughout the
war for the Union with honor and distinc-
ton, first as private soldier, then as
non-commissioned officer, and SO on, in
regular gradation, till he had attained the
proud distinction of Lieutenant Colonel of
his regiment, (the 54th 2. W He is
endowed with superior business talents,
aud would make capable Register and
Recorder.
For Commissioner, the name of Henry
Foster is presented. The gentleman
resides in White township, is farmer by
profession, and is energetic and reliable.
For the responsible post of Auditor,
James NJ. Cooper, of JohDstown, is
brought forward. Mr.. G. is connected
with the Cambria Iron Works, and lately
made an extended tour of investigation
throughout the county in the interest of
that establishment. He is too we'll known
to the people to require special mention
at our hands.
For Poor House Director, Charles
Buxton, of Jackson township, is nomina-
ted. His goodness of heart and mildness
of manner pre-eminently qualify him to
acceptably discharge the duties of the
Office.
Union men Of Cambria, your ticket is
made up. How do you like it?

General Grant at the Depot.

A few nights ago, says the Boston C0Da-
n1ercial, we met Gen. Grant at the Wash
ington Depot. He wore military coat
which looked as though it had served
more than one campaign. The General
had his little boy with him, bright and
cheerful-fdced lad of some ten years Of age
He walked up and down the depot, while
waiting for a train to arrive, and as he
walked he smoked assiduously. Occasion
ally he would stop to chat with his boy !;
casionally war-worn veteran would sa-
Lutte him as he passed, and more than once
in the space of halt an hour, we noticed
him talking pleasantly and listening with
apparent interest u some veteran who
was recalling, perhaps an incident Of the
early South western battles, Of the cam
palgn OF NIeksburg, or of the bloody pro-
gress through the Wilderness.
General Grant, in repose, has a counte-
nance that conveys no idea Of greatness TO
the beholder. His eye IS a mild blue, and
has q benevolent expression when he IS
cOnVersiDg with his soldiers We o5serT-
ed that ne stOops very much as be walks,
but Il other respects he seemed haze and
vigorous There Is no airiness or pretense
about him, nor afectation. He Is plain,
simple, and Unostentatious. The recent
story that he Is learning to leave off smok-
ing and has succeeded so far as to get
along with ten or fifteen cigars iay, must
be . mistake. He smoked three and had
begun the fourth in the brief period that
elapsed while he was waiting ia tho depot
