District Conventions.

CoNGREssIoYAL.-The Dem ocrats of
jefferson county, at their late county
convention, appointed J. U. Gillespie.
X. l.. Blood and George A. jerks
Congressional Conferees, with instruc.
tions to support Hon. VIM. p. jerks
as the choice 81 that eoanty fos csa-
gress. In accordance with a resolu-
ton passed by the conference two
years ago, the district Convention
will be held at Ridgway, on the Third
Thursday 2Oth) Of August next. We
hope our editorial brethren in the
district will bring this matter to the
notice Of thcis constituencies.
THE JuDGEsnIP.-The resignation
of Hon. Samuel Linn as President
Judge, and the appointment of Mr..
McEnally in his stead, settles this
question. Tho electors in the coun-
ties of Clearfeld, Centre and Clinton
will be called upon to elect Presi-
dent Judge this fall, and we may as
well get ready at once. Where shall
the delegates mcetY This is Of more
interest to us than to any of the other
counties, because we must scale the
Allegheny mountains, over corduroys
through mud holes, and by railroad,
at no small expense of patience and
time. We suggest that the nomina-
ting Convention be held at Tyrone.
This will enable our delegates to re-
turn the next day, while those OF
Clinton and Centre are still not put
to half the inconvenience that we are
compelled to undergo. What do our
Meek and F'Ty-ous friends in Centre
and Clinton say TO this suggestion
SENATORIAL CONVENTION. - This
body assembled at Brookville, on the
2Sth of August, 1865, but adjourned
without fixing either a time or place
for the next meeting. Why not meet
at Ridgway, on the 10th or 2lsty Or,
if all the delegat es are present, why
cannot Congressman, Senator and As
semblyman be made on the Goth
We think mono of the counties in the
Senatorial district will object TO this

people arc too Democratic up there
to object to anything of a democratic

By the Aresidcnt:
VIM. ii. SEWARD, Sec'y. of State.

The Radicals in Congress arein great
haste to get !ome. A number of the
present members have been renomi-
mated, and from the way the popular
tide has been setting for some time
past these gentlemen begin TO find
that the affections of the people are
rapidly drifting from them and find
ing a lodgment with their Democrat
ic opponents; hence the unseemly
haste with which legislation is being
put through. They hope to reach
their constituents in time to arrest
the exodus Of voters from the Radical
ranks, but they will find that they
are just day too late. The opportu.
nifty has escaped them never to be re-
captured.

Our .s;on,inees.

We this week place at our mast
head the full Democratic ticket. The
name OF DR.. Boyer, for Congress, was
last week omitted through mistake.
The names Of Hon. Horatio Sey
mour. of New York, and Maj Gen.
Francis P. Blair, jr., of Missouri, are
towcrof strength within themselves,
and in them are combined the true
statesman and the gallant soldier.
They may have equals, but they have
no superiors.
The State ticket is composed Of the
same element; statesman and vol
--uuteor soldier is the gift the Democra-
-, Fer TO an oppressed and tax-rid-
den people.
The names placed upon the District
ticket arc well known to the people
of this county. DIR. Boyer for Con
crcss, Judge Barrett for President
Judge, Mr.. Wallace for Senator, and
Mr.. Mccullough for Representative,
need no more than a passing notice at
our hands, as they have not only a
county but State reputation.
The county ticket is composed of
good men. Mr. Tate, our nominee
for Prothonotary, is farmer of Law
renee township, in the prime of life,
well qualified for the Office, and will
make prompt and efficient officer
Mr. Lee, the nominee for Register &
Recorder, is a young farmer Of Bee.
caria township, and peculiarly well
qualified, both by energy and educa-
ton, to make first class officer; and
we shall be very much mistaken i!-he
does not come up to what his friends
predict for him. Mr.. Shaflncr, the
nominee for Commissioner, is an old
Democratic veteran Of Lawrence town
ship, known to nearly everybody in
.he county. He promises the tax
payers his best efforts, in that office,
to reduce the expenditures Of the
county to the lowest standard posi-
ble Mr.. McCloskcy, the nominee for
Surveyor, resides in Curwensville, is
an engineer of no mean prctentiun,
and is amply qualified for the respon-
sibe trust Of Surveyor. He has al.
ready held the Office for three years,
to the entire satisfaction oe the public
Mr.. Rowles, the nominee for Auditor,
is farmer Of Knox township, and
possesses every requisite to make n
good officer. The financial affairs OF
the county will be closely scrutinizcd
and properly balanced during bis
term.
While the foregoing gentlemen have
been selected by the Democracy for
their standard bearers, it must be
borne in mind by the candidates, that
they should not quietly sit down and
fold their hands, as though the work
were done but rs "standard.bearers
they must carry the flag into every
portion of.the county. lflhey do not,
they viii find that some Of the defeat
ed candidates viii rob them of their
laurcls, and soon fll their places too

and only failed to gain the majority

Eoreign Fleets I'm Japan.

The outrage upon few French sailors in
Japan has caused orders to be issued by their
government to send an increased naval force
ment take q hint from foreign Powers in this
respect? We have had plenty of reasons why
we should keep large feet in distant ports.
But there is general remissness in taking ad-
vantage of opportunities to augment our power
abroad which other countries never neglect.
stead of taking possession of 1t we negotiated
for the purchase of California at q large sum,
and permitted Mexico to remain a political
ulcer upon our frontier The United States
have an especial right and duty to maintain
large feet at Japan; for our interests are more
extensively represented there than those of
any other nation. It was we who, with our
ships and friendly diplomacy, through the mis-
sion of Commodore Perry, opened the portals
of the Orient to the civilization and commerce
of all the world. II was by the confidence
which Americans inspired in the minds of the
Chinese and japanese that the exclusivencss
of these people was mainly removed While
other nations came to conquer and oppress
we came to counsel and cultivate friendly
relations. and we have been successful il
any government, then, seeks pretext for in
creasng their naval force in the ports of China
and Japan, it is not pretext but positive
duty which should lead us TO follow the same
course
Instead of sending ships TO the West Indies,
as the Navy Department is disposed to do,
or keeping up Mediterranean squadron, our
feet at Japan ought 10 be doubled and placed
under the command of fighting admiral.
We know not yet what important questions,
materially affecting our interests, may have to
be settled in that quarter, and we should be
prepared for any events which may arise.

Incrense of Crime In Brooklyn.

For some time past crime has been in
creasing at an alarming pace in Brooklyn. The
worst feature of it is, perhaps, the frequency
night. Passing over the burglaries, assaults
and cuttings and maimings in private dwellings
and tenements, outrages in public institutions
and other evidences of defective morality, the
insecurity of travel in the streets after night
fall appears to have reached a point where
police vigilance is at fault or fails utterly to
afford protection. We can only account for
this by attributing it to two cause.-the insult
ficiency of the police force and the wretched
manner in which the city is lighted by the gas
companies. There are wide tracts in Brook
lyn which it is impossible for the officers to
visit on their extended beats more than once
or twice during a nighttime, yet people who
are detained out late are compelled to traverse
these very localities The streets are so dimly
lighted that even in the most public thorough
fares it is not difficult for an evil disposed per-
son to lie in wait for an unsuspecting traveller
and entrap him. In view of these facts it is
evident that the police force should be increased
in some fair proportion to the area to be pro-
tected. If policemen were relieved from the
duty of spying after drinking saloons, and put
to their Legitimate business of protecting pro-
perty and life, there would be less street out
RACES and burglaries to record.
If the Corporation of Brooklyn have any
regard for the good repute of their city they
will insist upon the gas companies paying more
attention to lighting the streets. Unless this
is done there can be no safety in certain lonely
districts for any one whose business keeps him
out after dark.
