Judge Packers Reply.


PHILADELPHIA, July 30 1S69-Gentlemcn:-
At the first convenient moment reply to your
communication, informing me of my nomina-
tion by the Democratic State Convention, of the
14th instant, for the Office of Governor of Penn
sylvania. | desire to make due acknowledge
ments for this high evidence of the esteem and
friendship my fellow-citlzens, and to say that /
accept the nomination rendered me.
Having, at the solicitation of my friends
(though with unfeigned reluctance), been in-
duced to permit the use of my name for the
nomination, my acceptance becomes a matter
of course, if not duty; but announce ii with
a deep sense of the responsibility assumed. My
reliance in accepting the position OF candidate,
and in agreeing to perform Executive service
for the people, is not alone upon my own
strength or good intentions, but mainly upon
popular indulgence and generous support, and
upon that experimenting Providence which can
bless the labors of public men.
If ] shall be placed, by the votes Of the people,
in the Gubenatorial chair, | shall endeavor to
meet the expectations of friends, and of all who
have at heart the true interests OF our great
Commonwealth. To this end | shall labor to
secure those objects in which we feel common
interest and concern, among which are-the
preservation of the State credit; the reduction
OF the expenses of the State government to their
lowest practical point thereby lessening the
burdens and taxation OF the people; the en-
couragement of a liberal system of improve
ments for intercourse and trade, in order that
production may be increased, labor more amply
rewarded, and general prosperity secured: the
just execution OF the laws Involving cautious
and sparins use of the power to pardon Offend
ers,) so that good faith shall be Kept among the
people, and crime be repressed; the promotion
of the education of our youth by general sys-
TEN of organized schools, and by special in
sttutions of learning that knowledge and
virtue shall become more and more the solid
foundations of our free political system and
lastly the restoration of purity and character tc
our Government by the putting down or pre-
venting of special and corrupt legislation, ant
of all improper uses or management of the pub
should be added careful attention by Govern
ment to the interests of labor. Having earned
my bread by the labor of my hands during man,
and may add, the happiest years of my life
and owing whatever possess (under the Jroyi
dence of God) TO patient and honest toll, | car
never be unmindfu Of the interests of those wit
whom my entire life has been associated.

scandal becomes inevitable. 1t is not necessary
to attach any importance TO the vast majority of
the abominable stories which are eagerly told
and greediy listened to in England about the
Prince of Wales. Many of these stories must be
false; most of them, probably, are mere conjec-
hardly possible to convince any one living in
London that the future King of England is not
man of coarse, gross, sensuous and stupid
